Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group

Chapter 249: Chapter 246: Do You Have This Ability? (Fourth Update, Please Subscribe)

Hearing Ye Chen actually refusing to sign the agreement, Chen Ming was taken aback for a moment.

Li Xiao beside him also looked furious.

This kid has been opposing me all day today.

Do you think you’re great just because you have money, bullying people and stepping over me everywhere?

”Ye Chen, are you done yet, do you think I’m afraid of you?”

”Of course you’re not afraid of me. Alright, the agreement between our two companies is terminated starting today. Please leave.”

Li Xiao snorted coldly: ”Just based on you alone? We’ve been cooperating with Huamei Group for three years, Boss Chen and I are friends, based on just your word?”

Chen Ming’s face was extremely awkward: ”President Li, now Mr. Ye is the company’s boss.”

Li Xiao: ”...”

Just now, Li Xiao, who had been looking smug, suddenly turned pale.

Thinking about the arrogant words he said today, Li Xiao wished he could slap himself.

Of all the people to offend, he offended Ye Chen.

Huamei Group is Li Xiao’s company’s largest supplier.

If the other party terminates the agreement with him, it means losing the supply source.

This also means that their company will go bankrupt.

Li Xiao knew that he had offended Ye Chen terribly today.

”Chairman Ye, can you forgive me?” Li Xiao still held onto a glimmer of hope.

”What do you think?” Ye Chen’s expression remained indifferent.

Li Xiao left dejectedly.

Without the support of Huamei Group, he would find it difficult to move forward and would have to switch industries.

After handling the company’s matters, Ye Chen left Mei Hua Group.

At this moment, his phone rang; it was a call from Zhao Qiao’er.

”Qiao’er, where shall we meet tonight?”

”Ye Chen, I might not make it, I’m sorry.”

Instantly, Ye Chen’s expression darkened.

He hated being stood up by others.

Sensing Ye Chen’s cold tone, Zhao Qiao’er hurriedly explained, ”Ye Chen, it’s like this, my father is sick, severely ill, so I can’t accompany you, I’m sorry.”

Zhao Qiao’er almost cried as she spoke.

Hearing Zhao Qiao’er’s sobs, Ye Chen laughed: ”Silly girl, don’t cry, which hospital is he in? I’ll go and visit Uncle.”

”At Modu First Central Hospital,” Zhao Qiao’er replied.

”Okay, I’ll head over now,” Ye Chen nodded.

Modu First Central, while a decent hospital in Modu, it still couldn’t compare to his Ren’ai Hospital.

Ye Chen had already decided that if the old man’s condition was serious, he would help arrange a transfer to Ren’ai Hospital.

Half an hour later, Ye Chen drove to Modu First Central Hospital.

Following the room number Zhao Qiao’er sent, Ye Chen arrived at the ward.

Just as he reached the door of the ward, he heard a man’s voice from inside.

”Qiao’er, don’t hesitate. Uncle is seriously ill now, I just spoke with the attending doctor, he must be transferred to Ren’ai Hospital.”

”But, I don’t have that kind of money,” Zhao Qiao’er said with an ugly expression.

”Don’t worry, you still have me! As long as you become my girlfriend, I’ll immediately transfer Uncle to the best hospital.”

Ye Chen glanced at the guy, chubby and short with a face full of acne marks.

A true friend wouldn’t take advantage of someone’s misery; with her father critically ill, using it to threaten her into being his girlfriend is outright despicable.

Zhao Qiao’er grit her teeth, saying nothing.

Beside her, Mrs. Zhao said, ”Qiao’er, quickly agree. We raised you to this age, now it’s time for you to repay us.”

”Mom, I...”

Zhao Qiao’er glanced at Chen Tao beside her and frowned.

Though Lu Tao’s family was wealthy, he was essentially a nouveau riche, both fat and unattractive.

The idea of being his girlfriend was something Zhao Qiao’er would never agree to.

Yet now her father’s life hung in his hands.

Chen Tao said: ”Qiao’er, don’t hesitate, Uncle’s life is in your hands, as long as you become my wife, I’ll bring your parents to the City, and I’ll make sure your brother attends the best private school.”

Hearing Chen Tao’s words, Mrs. Zhao’s eyes lit up.

”Qiao’er, what are you waiting for? Tao Tao is great, this is a turning point for our family; your brother, your father, and I are counting on you. Are you really going to watch your father die here and become an unfilial daughter?”

Mrs. Zhao became more and more agitated as she spoke.

Zhao Qiao’er’s expression was very unpleasant.

Their family relied entirely on her father driving long distances to make money.

Her father cherished her the most, supporting her through college, but last year he suddenly became seriously ill and collapsed.

To treat her father’s illness, the family almost exhausted all their savings.

Even though she worked hard, doing live streams, she still couldn’t fill this gap.

Chen Tao was Zhao Qiao’er’s high school classmate and had been pursuing her.

But Zhao Qiao’er always focused on appearances, and she knew that Chen Tao might seem honest, but he was actually a scumbag, having several girlfriends in school whom he discarded once he was bored.

Now, her mother was clearly pushing her into the fire pit.

But if she didn’t agree, her father would die. Her father had always been the one who cherished her the most, how could she bear to watch him die?

Gritting her teeth, Zhao Qiao’er was about to agree when suddenly a voice came, ”Qiao’er, don’t worry, I’ll find a way to handle Uncle’s hospitalization.”

Chen Tao saw that Zhao Qiao’er was about to agree, but suddenly someone like Cheng Yaojin appeared, messing up his plans, and his face darkened.

”Kid, who are you?”

Ye Chen said calmly, ”I’m Qiao’er’s friend, Auntie, don’t force Qiao’er to marry a man she doesn’t love, I’ll help her out.”

Zhao Qiao’er looked at Ye Chen with delight.

Ye Chen’s looks compared to Chen Tao were like day and night.

Most importantly, for reasons unknown, since seeing Ye Chen, Zhao Qiao’er had a heart-pounding feeling.

Chen Tao said coldly, ”Kid, what do you do?”

Ye Chen smiled slightly, ”I’m a DiDi Brother.”

Hearing Ye Chen revealing his identity, Chen Tao suddenly laughed.

”Kid, you, a DiDi Brother want Uncle to go to Ren’ai Hospital? Do you know how much it costs for hospitalization there, can you afford the registration fee?”

Mrs. Zhao frowned upon hearing Ye Chen’s identity, ”Young man, our family has had enough bad luck, don’t make it worse, okay? My daughter has to be Chen Tao’s girlfriend today.”

”Mom...” After all, Ye Chen was kind enough to visit her father, and her mother’s attitude upset Zhao Qiao’er.

Ye Chen smiled slightly, ”Auntie, indeed you have nurtured Qiao’er, but you shouldn’t sacrifice her happiness for this; moreover, I’ll make sure Uncle stays in the best hospital with the best medical experts and facilities, rest assured.”

Upon hearing Ye Chen, Mrs. Zhao snorted, ”Just based on you, a DiDi Brother? Do you have the capability?”

Chen Tao also mocked from alongside, ”Kid, will you die if you don’t boast? Ren’ai Hospital, it’s a premium hospital, you wouldn’t necessarily get in even if you have money. My dad, Chen Ming, is Huamei Group’s boss; he’s friends with a director at Ren’ai Hospital; do you have such connections?”

”You’re Chen Ming’s son?” Ye Chen looked at Chen Tao with a peculiar expression.
