Chapter 101: Chasing After Someone to Send Me Off
Wang Yunfei was also stunned.
The villa in Tangchen Yipin was the most valuable property in the entire Wang family.
This villa belonged to the current head of the Wang family, Wang Yunfei’s uncle, Wang Zhenggang.
Wang Zhenggang was the father of Wang Yunkai and was currently in charge of the Wang family, while Wang Yunfei’s father was merely the second-in-command.
This villa was so desirable that even Wang Yunfei’s father coveted it, but there was nothing they could do; their family simply couldn’t afford such an expensive villa.
Hearing that his uncle was actually giving this villa to Ye Chen, Wang Yunfei felt extremely shocked and uncomfortable. He immediately said to Xiao Weiwei, “Wait a moment, I’ll ask my uncle.”
Xiao Weiwei hung up the phone, gritting her teeth as she looked at Ye Chen, questioning, “Ye Chen, what exactly did you do to trick Yunfei’s uncle into giving you this villa?”
Ye Chen replied calmly, “This villa is something Wang Zhenggang insisted on giving me.”
“You’re talking nonsense!” Xiao Weiwei blurted out, “You have no connection to the Wang family at all. How could Uncle Wang just give you such an expensive house for no reason? You must have used some underhanded means!”
At that moment, Wang Yunfei called Xiao Weiwei, saying, “Weiwei, my uncle seems to be busy; he just said a word and hung up on me.”
Ye Chen sneered and directly put his phone on speaker, dialing Wang Zhenggang’s number.
The phone rang once and was instantly connected.
Xiao Weiwei was left dumbfounded.
“Master Ye!” Wang Zhenggang’s voice was full of flattery, “Master Ye must have seen that villa in Tangchen Yipin, right? I wonder if Master Ye is satisfied?”
Ye Chen replied directly, “I’ve seen the villa; it’s quite nice overall. You’ve put in a lot of thought.”
Wang Zhenggang hurriedly said, “I’m glad you like it, Master Ye!”
Ye Chen said indifferently, “I called just to let you know that I’m satisfied with the villa.”
“If Master Ye needs anything else, just let me know anytime. I will do my best to resolve it! I’ll make sure Master Ye is satisfied!”
The crowd around fell into dead silence, stunned once again.
They never expected that this villa was indeed a gift from Wang Zhenggang to Ye Chen. What could be the reason behind it?
It was unbelievable that even Wang Zhenggang, who had to be respectful to his own fiancé, would act like a dog, fawning over Ye Chen, this good-for-nothing! This made Xiao Weiwei feel her face burning with embarrassment.
Unable to hold back, she shouted into Ye Chen’s phone, “Uncle Wang, I’m Yunfei’s fiancée, Xiao Weiwei. You wouldn’t just give the villa to Ye Chen for no reason, would you? What’s the reason behind it?”
“Hmph, who do you think you are? You dare to question my private matters?” Wang Zhenggang said coldly.
Xiao Weiwei felt her face flush with heat.
Ye Chen said lightly, “Wang Zhenggang, you might as well explain it to them; otherwise, they’ll think I tricked you.”
“Alright!” Wang Zhenggang immediately said, “Since Mr. Ye has said so, I will clarify in public. I owe Mr. Ye a huge favor, which is why I’m gifting him the villa as a token of gratitude. If those clowns dare to doubt Mr. Ye again, I will not let them off!”
Xiao Weiwei felt wronged; she had never been scolded so harshly before, her face flushed, nearly crying out of grievance.
Seeing Xiao Weiwei about to cry, Xiao Changqian felt embarrassed and coughed awkwardly, saying, “Mr. Wang, Weiwei is still a child; she’s just curious and means no harm.”
Wang Zhenggang, however, ignored him and respectfully asked, “Mr. Ye, do you need me to explain anything else?”
“That’s enough,” Ye Chen nodded.
“Then I won’t disturb you any longer, Mr. Ye. Call me anytime if you need anything.”
Ye Chen replied with a simple “mm” and hung up the phone.
“Ye Chen, this… is this really the villa that the Wang family gave you?” Xiao Changkun finally reacted, his mouth agape in shock.
“Yes, Dad,” Ye Chen smiled.
“This… you…” Xiao Changkun stuttered, feeling as if he were dreaming.
Xiao Churan quickly supported him, “Dad, why don’t you sit down and rest for a bit? Since Mr. Wang has clarified the situation, we all understand that the villa is rightfully Ye Chen’s.”
The phrase “rightfully Ye Chen’s” was emphasized by Xiao Churan, specifically for the relatives of the Xiao family to hear.
Qian Yulan clutched her heart, finding it hard to believe, murmuring, “The Wang family is really generous; they just give away a mansion worth over a hundred million. Why didn’t they give it to me?”
Not only was she puzzled, but others also found it unbelievable, even Xiao Hailong was green with envy.
Such a mansion was something they could never afford in ten lifetimes!
But why did this stroke of luck fall on Ye Chen, a good-for-nothing?
What kind of ridiculous luck was this!
Xiao Changqian’s face turned ashen. It didn’t matter that Wang Zhenggang ignored him, but he felt that this villa should belong to his daughter in the future, and now it had suddenly ended up in Ye Chen’s hands, which he simply couldn’t accept!
He glanced at his daughter, who was crying, and then at Ye Chen, feeling even more furious.
All along, he had looked down on Xiao Changkun, but now he was being overshadowed by a son-in-law. How embarrassing!
Xiao Changqian said sternly, “Ye Chen, tell everyone what kind of favor Mr. Wang owes you. You’re not using the Xiao family’s name to help Mr. Wang, are you?”
Ye Chen replied indifferently, “This is a personal matter of mine, not convenient to disclose!”
He turned to Li Bo and said, “It’s getting late; please see our guests out.”
Xiao Changqian considered himself a “senior,” but unfortunately, in his eyes, he was nothing!
Li Bo respectfully nodded and addressed the crowd, “I’m sorry, I’ll escort everyone to the door!”
Xiao Changqian felt humiliated and huffed heavily, walking out with a stern face.
Xiao Weiwei glared at Ye Chen with a mix of hatred and resentment before following him out.
The entire Xiao family felt like they were on the verge of collapse.
They never expected that the son-in-law they had always looked down upon would suddenly strike it rich!
At this moment, Li Bo closed the door and returned to the guest room, not disturbing Ye Chen’s family.
Once the Xiao family left, Xiao Churan finally spoke up, “Ye Chen, now you should tell us the truth. What kind of favor does Mr. Wang owe you?”
Ye Chen hesitated for a moment, unsure how to explain.
A few days ago, the Wang family had set a trap with Yu Jinghai, wanting to unify the metaphysics community in Jinling, but Yu Jinghai was struck dead by his “Thunder Command.” The Wang family was afraid of incurring his wrath, so they sent the villa as a gesture of surrender, fearing that if Ye Chen got angry, it would cost them their lives.
After thinking it over, Ye Chen said, “I helped the Wang family with some feng shui, which is why they gifted me this villa.”
“Ah?” Xiao Churan and her parents were stunned.
“Ye Chen, you’re helping people with feng shui?” Xiao Churan’s eyes widened.
Ye Chen nodded, “Yes.”
Xiao Churan asked in confusion, “Where did you learn to read feng shui?”
Ye Chen smiled, “From TV; there are many feng shui shows on TV.”
Xiao Churan panicked and blurted out, “Are you crazy?! You think you can read feng shui just by watching TV, and you dare to accept such an expensive villa?!”
