The call was from Yang Tian.
He said that he had made up his mind and decided to work at Ye Chen's company. Besides that, he had sent his son, Yang Hao, back to his parents.
Ye Chen could feel his energy and vigor through the phone. He was relieved after hanging up the phone and asked him to report to the company the next day.
He even gave him a Bentley.
…
A few days later, the little girl's summer vacation began.
Ye Chen went to the Gu residence and drove the Lamborghini that Gu Shaokun had given him. Just when he was going to drive the little girl out, Yang Tian called.
"Yezi, I'm almost familiar with the company's business. I'm just short of someone. Oh yeah, do you remember Zhou Zheng?"
"Zhou Zheng?"
Ye Chen was stunned. He thought the name sounded familiar, but he could not recall who it was at the moment.
"He's the guy from our class in university who went to the wrong girl's toilet and was treated as a pervert," Yang Tian reminded him immediately.
After hearing his reminder, Ye Chen finally recalled that there was indeed such a person.
"Here's the thing. Zhou Zheng wants to resign and work under me after hearing that I've become the vice president. Moreover, he's holding a party at the Auspicious Manor tonight. He's giving the students a chance to gather. I happen to be short of people too. Do you want to go?"
"Forget it. You can go alone. I won't go. You're the vice president, so you have the right to appoint people," Ye Chen rejected without even thinking about it.
Yang Tian said immediately, "Don't. You should go with me. I don't want the people in the company to say that I'm appointing people because I've just been appointed. Moreover, we haven't seen each other for years. We can catch up."
"It's settled then. I'm still in a meeting, so I'll probably be there later. Don't wait for me. Go to Room No. 13 at the Auspicious Manor directly."
Ye Chen could only agree to it, not knowing whether to laugh or cry after being pestered by him.
After hanging up the phone, the little girl sitting next to him pouted and held his arm in a clingy manner. "Daddy, are you going out again?"
"Daddy will bring you out to play tonight, okay?" Ye Chen caressed her round face while smiling.
He had no idea if it was an illusion, but it seemed like his daughter's face was getting rounder. He might as well change her name to Ye Yuanyuan.
The little fellow immediately danced with joy.
"Okay, okay. I haven't gone out to play with Daddy for a long time. I want to buy a lot of good things, such as ice cream, Zhou Hei Duck, chicken wings, hamburgers …"
Ye Chen was speechless.
No, if she continues to eat like this, my precious daughter will become a fat girl. What if Yuhan can't recognize her?
Looks like I have to concoct a weight-loss pill for this little glutton. En, the kind that just eats without gaining weight.
…
Soon, it was night time. After informing his parents, Ye Chen brought the little girl out and got into the Lamborghini.
"Daddy, did you buy this paper?" The little fellow sat in the front passenger seat. After fastening the seat belt, she widened her eyes in curiosity.
Ye Chen had a loving expression on his face. "Someone gave it to me. My dear daughter, isn't it pretty?"
"Nice, nice."
The little girl could not stop nodding. "Piyang's father in my class bought a paper too. Piyang takes the car to school every day, but his mother doesn't let us touch it. She even said that we're poor. I'm so mad!"
Ye Chen could not help but laugh. "Don't worry. If Piyang's mother says that I'm poor again, tell her that my father drives a Lamborghini. Not only am I a rich kid, but I'm also a celestial kid."
"Daddy, what's a celestial kid?" The little girl tilted her head, looking confused.
Realizing that he had said something wrong, Ye Chen could not stop coughing. "Cough, cough. A celestial kid. It means that my Mengmeng is a little fairy."
…
Ye Chen drove as he spoke. He was not afraid of being checked by the traffic police since Gu Shaokun had gotten his driver's license and driving permit for him.
Ye Chen had been to the Auspicious Manor before, so he was familiar with the route this time. However, there were many cars parked at the entrance.
Feeling helpless, Ye Chen could only park the car by the road and walk into the Auspicious Manor while carrying the little girl.
The receptionist greeted him respectfully as soon as she saw him. She then contacted the manager of the hotel.
Soon, the fatty with the surname Feng from last time came over immediately. "Mr. Ye, you're here."
The guests who were entering and exiting were secretly guessing who exactly Ye Chen was. He could not believe that the manager of the Auspicious Manor would come out to welcome him personally.
"Yes, I'm here for the class reunion. I think it's in Room No.13 on the second floor," Ye Chen responded coldly.
Fatty Feng had a smile on his face. "Mr. Ye, I'll bring you there myself."
"It's alright. Go ahead with your business. I'll go there myself." Ye Chen shook his head and carried the little girl to the second floor.
At the same time, in Room No.13.
A bunch of people dressed extremely nicely sat on the couch. There were all sorts of fruit platters and wine before them.
The leader was a young man in a suit and leather shoes. He had a little beard on his chin and his hair was combed. He was holding a glass of red wine in one hand and a cigar in the other. He looked very stylish.
It was Zhou Zheng whom Yang Tian had mentioned.
A girl with heavy makeup pushed her glasses up and asked in an unsure manner, "Zhou Zheng, are you sure that Yang Tian is really the vice president?"
The entire room fell into silence as soon as she said that.
The entire room fell into silence as soon as she said that.
Everyone there was an adult. The reason why they came to the reunion was not as simple as catching up with each other.
Zhou Zheng said with a smile as everyone stared at him, "That's right. Would I lie to you guys? I bumped into Yang Tian at the gas station the day before yesterday.
I asked him where he works and he said he works at Yaffle Cosmetics Company. He's the vice president. I didn't believe him at first, but I believed him when I followed him into the company and saw many people calling him Director Yang. Guess what kind of car he's driving? "
"What car?" another classmate asked.
Zhou Zheng paused and said, "A Bentley Mulsanne!"
Gasps could be heard from the crowd. They believed Zhou Zheng's words completely.
A Bentley Mulsanne.
It would cost at least four to five million yuan!
At that moment, everyone's eyes flickered as they had different thoughts in their minds. Someone exclaimed, "Yang Tian's probably the best among all of us. It's only been a few years since he graduated, but he's already the vice president. Now, he's driving a Bentley Mulsanne."
Zhou Zheng smiled without saying anything.
What he didn't say was that he had secretly contacted Yang Tian and planned to work at Yang Tian's company using the friendship of his old classmate. Yang Tian also promised that if the chairman had no objections, he would let him start as a sales supervisor.
Zhou Zheng looked at Zhao Chun, who used to be the study commissary, as he thought to this point. "Oh yeah, is everyone from the sales class here?"
"Apart from Yang Tian who's in a meeting and will be here later, I think Ye Chen isn't here yet?" Zhao Chun thought about it and said.
Zhou Zheng frowned. "Ye Chen?"
He was uncomfortable with that name. When he was still in school, Zhou Zheng's results ranked No. 2 in the class. Meanwhile, Ye Chen would always be better than him. Because of that, he had been No. 2 for three years.
That had always pissed him off.
"Ye Chen hasn't contacted us for so many years. Is he too embarrassed to come because he's doing badly?" Zhao Chun said while smiling.
Someone said by instinct, "Didn't Yuan Yue see Ye Chen before?"
Yuan Yue, who was at the corner, froze when she heard Ye Chen's name. She said awkwardly, "You guys don't have to wait. He's not doing well now."
Ever since she saw Ye Chen last time, she had been having a rough time. Not only did she lose her job, but she was even beaten up before breaking up with her boyfriend. She had to stay in the hospital for half a month.
She thought that Ye Chen would not come. Therefore, she slandered Ye Chen in front of her old classmates as a way to vent the hatred in her.
Zhou Zheng was relieved and said while pretending to be regretful, "It's unfortunate. If he had come today, Yang Tian might've been able to help him."
That was what he said.
However, he was secretly smirking.
'Ye Chen, oh, Ye Chen. So what if you were good at your studies? You don't even have the courage to come to the gathering.
Just you wait!
When I join Yang Tian's company, the gap between us will only grow!
I'm really looking forward to the day we meet again. '
Just when he was thinking about that, someone knocked on the door of the private room.
Someone knocked on the private room door. Subsequently, Ye Chen walked in while carrying Mengmeng.
