Chapter 66: The Mysterious Chairman!
Qin Gang respectfully smiled and said, “Master Ye, your great kindness to the Qin family is something I will never forget. Today is a bit rushed, and I couldn’t prepare in time. Could I invite Master Ye to come to the Qin family tomorrow for a gathering? I will host a banquet at home to personally thank you for your great kindness.”
“No need, I have other matters to attend to.”
Ye Chen shook his head coldly and said, “Today’s incident was because I saw you doing good deeds. I don’t want it to be too public, understand?”
Qin Gang was taken aback and nodded repeatedly, “I understand! If Master Ye ever needs anything from the Qin family in the future, just come find me.”
After saying this, he hurriedly handed over a gold-plated business card with his personal phone number on it.
Ye Chen took it without looking and turned to leave with his father-in-law.
Qin Gang watched the two of them disappear before glaring fiercely at Qin Ao Dong, angrily saying, “In Jinling, if you see Master Ye, you must bow respectfully and greet him. Don’t cause trouble for me!”
Qin Ao Dong protested, “I didn’t know that just going out to buy something could offend a master…”
Qin Ao Xue, with a cold expression, glared at Ye Chen’s departing figure, gritting her teeth.
Although she admired Ye Chen, she clearly still held a grudge against him for kicking her.
For a proud girl, such a thing was simply unforgivable.
Qin Gang sighed and comforted her, “Girl, don’t go seeking revenge on Master Ye. Our whole family is counting on him now…”
“Can he really be of help?” Qin Ao Dong muttered.
Qin Gang scolded, “If you talk nonsense again, I’ll break your legs!”
Qin Ao Dong shrank his neck, not daring to say more.
Qin Ao Xue stomped her foot in frustration and said, “I understand, Dad… I won’t provoke him…”
Just thinking about the lingering pain in her body made her feel angry all over.
“What a pity…” Qin Gang shook his head and sighed.
Qin Ao Xue asked in surprise, “What a pity about what?”
Qin Gang glanced at her before saying, “It’s a pity that Master Ye is already married. Otherwise, I think you two would be quite a match…”
“Dad! What are you talking about!” Qin Ao Xue was both embarrassed and angry.
…
On the way back, Xiao Changkun still wore a look of astonishment.
The head of the Qin family was actually so respectful to his son-in-law!
“Ye Chen, were those things you said to Qin Gang true?”
Xiao Changkun asked in confusion, feeling that his son-in-law was increasingly resembling a con artist.
Ye Chen chuckled and said, “Half true, half false. Don’t all street con artists like to put on a show?”
Xiao Changkun was immediately alarmed and scolded in a panic, “Damn, you dare to deceive the Qin family and accepted such a valuable bracelet from them. What if it gets exposed later? What will we do if they come looking for us? Don’t drag our family down with you!”
Ye Chen shook his head and said, “If it comes to that, I can just return the bracelet. In a society governed by law, can they really kill me?”
Xiao Changkun sighed deeply, clearly worried, but after thinking it over, he realized there was no other way. He could only take a gamble; perhaps Ye Chen’s street con techniques really worked.
After returning home, Ye Chen entered the bedroom and took out the “Peace and Prosperity” stone he received from Zhang Ermao.
At that moment, Ye Chen suddenly felt a surge of energy drilling into his body from the stone.
He immediately felt a warm sensation, and his entire chest and abdomen felt indescribably comfortable.
Soon, layers of sweat mixed with black impurities were expelled from his body, leaving him feeling incredibly relaxed.
After a moment, Ye Chen sensed a stream of energy circulating within him.
This was spiritual energy!
However, when he looked at the stone again, he found that it had lost its spiritual energy, appearing just like an ordinary stone.
Ye Chen activated the cultivation method recorded in the “Nine Mysterious Heavenly Scriptures,” but he couldn’t draw any spiritual energy from it.
He could only put the stone back in his pocket, feeling intuitively that this item was extraordinary. Since he couldn’t study it further at the moment, he decided to wait until his cultivation level improved.
Feeling sticky all over, Ye Chen hurried to take a shower. By the time he finished, it was already past 5 PM.
His wife, Xiao Churan, called him.
On the phone, Xiao Churan informed Ye Chen that she was discussing project details at the Dihao Group. The BMW 760 he bought for her was restricted from being driven today, so she wanted Ye Chen to take his father-in-law’s 530 to pick her up from the Dihao Group.
When his wife called, Ye Chen naturally felt obliged to help.
He immediately asked his father-in-law for the car keys and drove to the Dihao Group’s building.
Once he arrived downstairs, Ye Chen took out his phone and called Xiao Churan.
She didn’t answer, but quickly replied with a WeChat message.
“Ye Chen, I’m still in a meeting with the project team. Please wait for me downstairs for a bit. Thank you for your patience.”
“Okay, I’ll wait for you downstairs.”
After replying to Xiao Churan, Ye Chen stood outside the car, smoking while waiting.
At that moment, Wang Dongxue, the vice-chairman of the Dihao Group, called him and asked, “Young Master, have you arrived at the Dihao Group?”
Ye Chen curiously asked, “How did you know?”
Wang Dongxue replied, “I’m in my office and can see your car from here.”
Ye Chen looked up and smiled, “Do you need something from me?”
Wang Dongxue said, “The young lady is still in a meeting and may take some time, so I wanted to ask if you have time. If you do, I would like to report on recent work to you.”
Ye Chen thought for a moment; he hadn’t been managing the Dihao Group much lately and couldn’t afford to be completely uninformed about the company’s affairs. So he said, “Alright, wait for me. I’ll come up now.”
Wang Dongxue replied, “Then you can go directly to your office. I’ll meet you there to report.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up, Ye Chen walked into the building, took the elevator straight to the top floor’s chairman’s office.
As he stepped out of the elevator and walked toward the office, a door behind him suddenly opened.
Dong Ruolin was just about to go to the restroom but didn’t expect to see a familiar figure as soon as she stepped out.
She didn’t recognize that the figure was Ye Chen; instead, she felt that it resembled the legendary wealthy man from short video platforms!
Could it be that the chairman she had been wanting to meet finally arrived?
Dong Ruolin immediately became excited!
After all, her main purpose for coming to Jinling and the Dihao Group was to get close to this mysterious chairman and then work hard to become his woman. This way, the entire Dong family could rise to a new level.
This was the mission bestowed upon her by her family, as well as their hopes for her.
However, Dong Ruolin was also quite frustrated; she had been here for so many days and hadn’t even seen the chairman’s face. How could she develop a deeper relationship with him?
So now, seeing the chairman’s back, Dong Ruolin was thrilled!
She quickly took a few steps to follow behind Ye Chen, wanting to catch up and greet him, then introduce herself!
