Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group

Chapter 201: Chapter 198 Too Direct (First Update, Subscription Requested)

Zhu Ming’s face brightened upon hearing this: ”Young Master Yan, do you have connections that can help our school?”

Yan Chuang shook his head: ”He also graduated from Modu Institute of Technology.”

”Graduated from the Institute of Technology?”

The elites in the conference room looked at each other in confusion.

Is there a hidden big shot among them?

Zhu Ming also looked puzzled: ”Young Master Yan, who are you referring to?”

Yan Chuang smiled casually: ”His name is Ye Chen. He’s my senior. No matter his capability or connections, they far exceed mine.”

”Ye Chen?” Principal Zhu was momentarily stunned upon hearing this name.

Principal Zhu coldly glanced at Li Ming, the head of academic affairs beside him: ”Our school has such an elite, why didn’t you invite him?”

Li Ming looked aggrieved: ”Principal Zhu, I’ve invited all the celebrities from our school, but there’s truly no one named Ye Chen.”

At this point, a teacher seemed to recall: ”Indeed, we once had a student named Ye Chen at our school. He was my student and was the school’s heartthrob at the time.”

”Is this person real? What does he do?” Zhu Ming’s eyes lit up.

”He drives for DiDi!” The teacher replied with a peculiar expression.

”Driving for DiDi!”

The elites in the conference room burst into laughter.

How hilarious.

These elites are all people of status and standing in Modu.

Even they are at their wit’s end; would someone who drives for DiDi have a solution?

”It must be a mistake of similar names.” Principal Zhu said.

Even Meng Lang laughed: ”It definitely can’t be him. The Ye Chen you mentioned is my classmate. After graduation, he found a decent job but was fired. Now he’s just a DiDi driver.”

Everyone shook their heads.

However, Yan Chuang said: ”Why are you laughing? I’m talking about him. Let me tell you, even all the people here are not a tenth as capable as he is.”

Hiss!

Everyone gasped.

He continued: ”I believe that if Brother Chen steps in, resolving this issue will be very straightforward.”

Upon hearing Yan Chuang’s words, Zhu Ming quickly asked: ”Then where is Ye Chen? Do you have his contact information?”

Yan Chuang’s face darkened: ”Principal Zhu, it’s really laughable that you haven’t invited someone as elite as Ye Chen, yet you’ve invited a bunch of incompetent people. I suspect he wouldn’t come even if you called him; he’s right on campus. You should personally go and invite him.”

”Alright, alright...” Zhu Ming wiped the sweat off his forehead.

Modu University of Technology doesn’t have as many celebrities as Fudan, Huaqing, or Peking University.

Now the school has someone so exceptional, yet they didn’t invite him to the sixtieth anniversary celebration. It’s indeed excessive.

At this moment, Ye Chen and Xie Yingying had already strolled around the campus.

”Thank you, Yingying, for taking me on a tour of my alma mater again.”

”Haha, that’s only right!”

”Ye Chen, you’re back too.”

At this moment, a group of people came walking from the opposite direction, all of whom were Ye Chen’s university classmates.

”Oh, hello everyone, long time no see.”

The classmates all had peculiar expressions upon seeing Ye Chen.

Actually, Ye Chen used to be in the class group, but for some reason, he was kicked out by Meng Lang.

For this school anniversary, someone had suggested inviting Ye Chen, but Meng Lang said Ye Chen was just a DiDi driver and would bring shame to the school if he came.

Unexpectedly, Ye Chen came without an invitation.

”Ye Chen, actually we wanted to invite you, but...” Li Yan, the party secretary, said awkwardly.

”It’s okay; I just happened to pass by today and wanted to take a look.” Ye Chen smiled.

”Ye Chen, I heard you’re driving for DiDi now. If it’s inconvenient, come work for me. Though I don’t have much skill, running a restaurant allows me to offer you the position of head of security with a monthly salary of around eight thousand.” Chen Shan patted Ye Chen’s shoulder.

In the past, Ye Chen was the class heartthrob with girls flocking around him. Now seeing him not doing well, the boys secretly felt pleased.

Ye Chen shook his head: ”No need; I’m quite satisfied driving for DiDi.”

”Oh, Ye Chen, we’re not blaming you, but you excelled in your studies back then; yet, after graduation, you ended up in such a grim situation,” another classmate couldn’t help but criticize Ye Chen.

”Look at Meng Lang; despite not doing well in studies back then, he’s developed nicely after graduation. Now he’s even become a deputy general manager and was invited to the sixtieth anniversary talk forum.”

Back then, he and Ye Chen both pursued Yao Lili, but ultimately lost to Ye Chen. This matter had always been a sore point for him.

”I heard Ye Chen got dumped by Lili; after all, what future is there being with a boyfriend who drives for DiDi?”

Listening to these people’s ridicule, Ye Chen remained silent, but Xie Yingying wasn’t pleased.

”Why are you guys so strange? What’s wrong with my senior driving for DiDi? Hmph, he drives a luxury car worth two million. Do you have that? No wonder my senior doesn’t want to come to school; it’s because of you junk classmates.”

”How can you talk like that, young girl?”

”It’s too much. Ye Chen, look at you, lacking ability but deceiving young girls.”

”Certainly, the girl must be naive and got tricked by Ye Chen.”

”Yes, it turns out Ye Chen just likes deceiving girls.”

...

Those boys became indignant, and the girls also showed looks of disappointment.

Li Yan frowned: ”Why are you all like this? Did Ye Chen ever borrow money from you for driving for DiDi? Does he owe you anything? Don’t invite me to any university gatherings from now on; classmates like you truly dishearten people.”

Ye Chen said calmly: ”What I do now is none of your business. If you all do well, I offer my congratulations; I’m living quite happily myself, so there’s no need for you to bother.”

Saying this, Ye Chen turned to leave, but just then, another group of people came bustling over.

Principal Zhu Ming walked at the front, with Yan Chuang behind him, and Meng Lang followed in the crowd, looking displeased.

Yan Chuang laughed: ”Brother Chen, Principal Zhu has come to invite you.”

Those classmates watching this scene were completely dumbfounded.

What’s happening?

The principal is personally inviting Ye Chen.

And those following behind the principal—aren’t they all notable figures from the school?

Were they really here to invite Ye Chen?

Only to see Zhu Ming stop in front of Ye Chen and slightly bow: ”Mr. Ye, I’m truly sorry; it’s my dereliction of duty that we overlooked sending you an invitation for this talk forum. I apologize on behalf of the school.”

There was a dead silence onsite.

Those classmates who had mocked Ye Chen were all stunned.

What the hell is this, the principal personally apologizing on behalf of the school.

Isn’t Ye Chen just a DiDi Brother? This is way too exaggerated.

”It’s nothing; I don’t really like attending such forums anyway. Today, I just happened to come back to have a look.” Ye Chen said calmly.

”Mr. Ye, you are our school’s finest talent. How could the talk forum possibly be missing you?” the principal said.

Ye Chen smiled mildly: ”Is the school facing any difficulties? Just say it directly!”

”This?” Zhu Ming’s old face blushed immediately; this alumnus really is straightforward.
