After the two of them had walked far enough away, Xia Ruoxue quickly let go of Ye Chenâs arm. A sweet smile appeared on her beautiful face.
â Ye Chen, you helped me out previously. Now that Iâve helped you out as well, weâre even/â Xia Ruoxue tucked her hair behind her ear and laughed. âThat girl doesnât look too bad. Is she your ex-girlfriend? Or is she someone you had a crush on? Iâve never been so intimate with a boy before, so thereâs nothing wrong with you providing for me.â
Ye Chenâs eyes narrowed and he smilcd.âYouârc an iceberg president, so I really canât afford to provide for you. However, how do you feel about working for inc?â
Xia Ruoxue raised her eyebrows when she heard his words.
As far as she knew, the only valuable thing Ye Chen had was that formula. Could it be that this guy had some other business?
Thinking back, the card that this guy gave her also had a lot of money in it.
Could this guy be a hidden rich tycoon?
âŠ..
Xia Ruoxucâs starry eyes blinked as she said, âYe Chen, are you sure you want to hire me? If you hire me, you have to be mentally prepared for the fact that your business will be ruthlessly suppressed by the Xia family. At that time, let alone making a profit, even survival would be difficult! I donât think anyone in Huaxia would dare to hire me because of that, not even for a front desk position.â
Ye Chon was not afraid of the Xia family. âIâm not afraid to hire you. However, do you dare to work for me?â he asked.
âArc you sure?â
âIâm sure,â Ye Chen nodded affirmatively.
âAlright,â she said. Xia Ruoxue regained the aura of a CEO and asked seriously, âSo where is your company? How much was the registered paid-up capital? What industry docs it operate in? What kind of government policy support docs it have?â
Ye Chon was stunned. He scratched his head and explained, âUh ⊠The company hasnât been established yet. It should be soon though. However, we havenât decided on the business model yetâŠâ
Xia Ruoxue rolled her eyes at Ye Chen. She guessed that Ye Chen was doing this because of his half-year statement to her mother.
She could not help but let out a long sigh. It was true that the ignorant wore fearless. Ye Chen had no idea how terrifying the Xia family was.
Even if some rich business tycoon in Huaxia handed him their company, it was impossible for him to surpass the Xia family in terms of finances.
On the surface, the business tycoons in Huaxia seemed to dominate the news. However, only a few people knew that the really terrifying characters were those in charge of the collosal family corporations.
Ye Chon was too insignificant in front of these corporations, so insignificant that no one would even bother to look at him.
His so-called half-year statement was equivalent to him banging his head against a brick wall. He was overestimating his own strength!
âLetâs go back to the apartment.â
Xia Ruoxueâs voice sounded tired and disappointed.
She was grateful for everything Ye Chon had done for her, but she also had to face reality.
The reality was that it would not be long before she returned to the Xia family residence, and Ye Chen would remain a passer-by in her life.
âŠ
At the same time, inside a luxurious villa, Xia Ruoxucâs mother was leaning on the sofa. She had a well-rounded figure, and time had not left any traces on her face.
She held a glass of red wine in her right hand and savored it.
However, the red wine could not calm the anger in her heart. The moment she thought of her precious daughter being with that man, she felt that the noble blood of the Xia family had been polluted with impurities! It made her feel utter disgust!
Pa!
The wine glass in her hand was smashed onto the ground!
A few seconds later, a middle-aged man in a suit walked in with a document in his hand.
He glanced at the broken pieces of glass on the floor and carefully walked over to Xia Ruoxueâs mother. He handed the document over with both hands outstretched. âMadam, this is the information you wanted.â
Xia Ruoxucâs mother did not take the document from his hands and directly asked, âI only want to know the answer to two questions. First, is Ruoxue pregnant and, second, where did that poor kid come from?â
The middle-aged manâs body trembled. He clearly did not expect the madam to be so angry. He briefly hesitated before replying.
âMadam, according to my investigation, based on the timeline and the reports of young missâs regular physical examinations, she shouldnât be pregnant. HoweverâŠâ
Xia Ruoxucâs mother was still a little happy after she heard the first half of the sentence, but when she heard the word howeverâ, her expression changed. âSpeak clearly!â
âHowever, young miss left the villa for a drink that day and was later picked up by a lady named Sun Yi. Thereâs another boy living in Sun Yiâs house, who happens to be the one you asked me to investigate. According to the surveillance footage and content, we canât rule out the possibility of them having had sex. As for whether sheâs actually pregnant, we still need to observe.â
Pa!
Xia Ruoxucâs mother immediately threw the entire bottle of red wine to the ground. Her fists were clenched tightly. âIf that brat really defiled Ruoxue, I want him dead! Tell me about that kidâs background!â
The middle-aged man nodded. âThis kidâs background is somewhat strange. I canât find any information about him using my methods. Itâs as if he appeared out of thin air.â
Xia Ruoxueâs motherâs beautiful eyes revealed a hint of surprise. âHow is that possible? Given the network at your disposal, even the military should be unable to hide anything. How can there be no information at all?â
The middle-aged man explained, âThis personâs information must have been deliberately hidden. However, according to my speculation, this Ye Chen is most likely the young master of the Ye family that was destroyed five years ago in Cloud Lake Manor. This man disappeared for five years. During those five years, there has been no surveillance footage or information about him. Itâs as if he has vanished from the world.â
âI just donât know why he suddenly reappeared five years later.â
Xia Ruoxueâs mother fell into a state of deep thought. Although the incident at Cloud Lake Manor five years ago happened in River City, it had shaken up the upper echelons of Jiangnan Province.
After all, the Ye family had offended a big shot from Capital City.
It was due to this incident back then that she had learned about the Ye family. It was a declining family in a small place with no strength at all. They did not even have a single ancient martial arts expert. They only possessed a company called the Heavenly Justice group.
However, even if Ye Chen really came from this Ye family, so what? After losing his parents, he did not even have a single person he could rely on.
He was probably trying to get into the Xia familyâs good books and use the Xia familyâs status and power to avenge his parents!
What a ridiculous idea!
âHmph, what a well-calculated plan!â
Xia Ruoxueâs mother walked over to the villa window that overlooked the scenery of River City outside. She sneered and said, âThat piece of trashâs entire family has already been annihilated, yet he still dared to say such bold words in front of me. In half a year, heâll make my Xia family understand the meaning of the word âunattainableâ? Ignorant brat! Iâd like to sec what kind of waves you can stir up in half a year!â
Evening, at the Grand City apartment complex.
Ye Chen felt that the apartment had become a little crowded. Although there were two beautiful women accompanying him, it was still a little annoying.
There were several times when he forgot to lock the door when he went to the toilet. He had just taken off his pants when Xia Ruoxue rushed in. She soon ran out screaming.
However, it was not all bad living with two beauties. Sun Yiâs figure was sexy, while Xia Ruoxucâs face and temperament were alluring. It was a pleasure to look at both of them every day.
After dinner, the two girls went to the supermarket downstairs to purchase some groceries. As for Ye Chen, he went to the balcony and gave Ye Lingtian a call. He told Ye Lingtian about the Heavenly Justice group and asked him to send someone to contact Shen Haihua.
After that, he decided to contact Bai Libing, but suddenly realized that ho did not have her number.
Perhaps he should ask Ye Lingtian instead. After all, he was not very familiar with Bai Libing, and she might not agree to his request.
Ye Chon stopped thinking about it. Just as he was about to turn and leave the balcony, he suddenly sensed something. His eyes narrowed and his cold gaze turned toward the rooftop of the building opposite him!
Someone was actually spying on him!
Ye Chon turned around, turned off the lights, and disappeared into the darkness.
âYou want to play a game with me? Treating me as prey? Hmph! I, Ye Chen, would like to show you who the real hunter is!â
