Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group

Chapter 505: Chapter 501: Why Isn’t It Me (Four Updates, Please Subscribe)

Only to see Elder Lu respectfully say, ”Let me introduce everyone, Mr. Ye Chen is the owner of our museum.”

Upon hearing Elder Lu’s words, the scene fell silent.

Wasn’t this young man just saying he was a DiDi Brother?

Unexpectedly, he turned out to be the big boss behind the museum.

Everyone knew the value of this museum. No one expected the shocking backstage owner to be the DiDi Brother they had just looked down upon.

Ye Chen stepped onto the auction stage, took the microphone with a smile on his face, and said, ”Here, on behalf of the children in mountainous areas, I would like to thank Mr. Xia Jinsheng for his generous contribution. We will use every cent of the 1.3 billion funds to help those poor children in the mountains.”

Listening to the speech, Xia Jinsheng always felt a strange feeling.

He suddenly realized that he had been fooled like a fool from beginning to end.

Xia Jinsheng bid against Ye Chen for a long time to buy this Jade Hairpin.

Turns out the person was the owner of the museum all along.

Although he suffered a dumb loss, Xia Jinsheng wasn’t foolish.

He couldn’t openly admit that he was deceived in front of everyone.

If this matter got out, he would definitely become a joke in the circle.

So, Xia Jinsheng could only swallow the bitter pill.

Though his heart truly ached, 1.3 billion!

Ye Chen handed the Jade Hairpin to Xia Jinsheng with a smile and said, ”Mr. Xia, why don’t you say a few words to everyone?”

Xia Jinsheng’s gaze turned to Su Wanyi.

Since I’ve spent the money, I must keep up the appearance!

”First of all, I’m very happy to support the Hope Project. Actually, I feel that spending this 1.3 billion was worthwhile because it’s my love and it can improve the lives of these poor children, which also makes me very happy.”

It must be said, Xia Jinsheng was very clever.

Although it was clear he was tricked by Ye Chen, he elevated his image greatly, with the demeanor of a successful and passionate public welfare advocate.

Xia Jinsheng then looked at Su Wanyi with a face full of excitement.

”Today, I bought this Jade Hairpin to give it to the girl I love most.”

Although Su Wanyi knew that Xia Jinsheng had always gazed at her affectionately, she averted her eyes and pretended not to see him.

But at this moment, Bi Tingting rushed to Xia Jinsheng’s side.

She looked proud, raising her head with excitement on her face.

Xia Jinsheng must have bought this Jade Hairpin for me.

Bi Tingting even sneered at Ye Chen as if to say, ”See, my man is rich too.”

At this moment, reporters started taking pictures of Xia Jinsheng.

Bi Tingting even posed in a posture.

At this time, Bi Tingting felt like a princess.

Looking at Bi Tingting showing off beside him, Xia Jinsheng wished he could kick her away.

What are you, an ugly fool, twisting around next to me?

Without looking at Bi Tingting, Xia Jinsheng spoke passionately to Su Wanyi in the audience, ”The girl I’m talking about is Miss Su Wanyi.”

As he spoke, Xia Jinsheng pointed to Su Wanyi’s seat.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Because everyone saw Bi Tingting showing off and thought Xia Jinsheng would give the Jade Hairpin to her.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be given to someone else.

What kind of operation is this? The purchased accessory wasn’t for his female companion.

All the people were in complete bewilderment.

Bi Tingting, who was just now full of pride, heard Xia Jinsheng’s words and instantly turned crestfallen.

Her face grew ugly as she questioned Xia Jinsheng, ”Why? Why her? I’m your girlfriend, this Jade Hairpin should be given to me.”

Xia Jinsheng looked disdainful, ”What are you? Do you think your ugly face deserves this Jade Hairpin?”

Bi Tingting was completely broken, pointing at Xia Jinsheng, ”I’m your girlfriend! Why can’t it be me? I accompanied you to this charity gala, yet you give the Jade Hairpin to another girl, what do you mean?”

Xia Jinsheng snorted coldly, ”Girlfriend? You are just a backup, not even deserving to look in a mirror compared to Wanyi.”

Bi Tingting was about to explode with anger.

So, in Xia Jinsheng’s heart, she was just a backup.

Bi Tingting was thoroughly furious at this moment.

Initially, Ye Chen, from a rich family, looked down on her. After finally clinging to Xia Jinsheng, it turned out she was just a backup.

”You bastards, I’m going to fight you today.”

Bi Tingting was too stimulated, turning into a complete shrew.

Only to see Bi Tingting recklessly pounce on Xia Jinsheng.

In an instant, the two began to wrestle.

”You crazy woman, get off me.”

Xia Jinsheng tried to push Bi Tingting away.

But now Bi Tingting, having lost all rationality, directly bit Xia Jinsheng’s arm.

In pain, Xia Jinsheng dropped the box from his hand onto the ground.

Crash!

The Jade Hairpin inside the box fell out and shattered into several pieces.

Seeing the Jade Hairpin broken on the ground, Xia Jinsheng was nearly driven mad with anger.

This was the Jade Hairpin he had spent 1.3 billion on, and it shattered just like that.

At this moment, security rushed onto the platform and pulled the two apart.

Currently, Xia Jinsheng was scratched all over by Bi Tingting, while the Jade Hairpin on the ground was in pieces.

Damn, this was 1.3 billion, completely gone!

Xia Jinsheng was about to lose it with rage.

He looked towards Su Wanyi, only to find Ye Chen and Su Wanyi had already left without him noticing.

Chicken and eggs both gone, throwing away 1.3 billion, and in the end, nothing was gained.

Ye Chen and Su Wanyi ended up eating at a western restaurant.

At this time, Elder Lu’s phone call came through.

This auction featured more than forty items, with a total of 3.8 billion raised.

Ye Chen nodded, ”Is Xia Jinsheng not causing trouble?”

Elder Lu sneered, ”He just argued with me asking for a refund, but we have witnesses, even if he goes to court, we have nothing to fear.”

Ye Chen chuckled, ”Elder Lu, you’ve worked hard.”

Elder Lu replied, ”Boss Ye is the smart one. In the past, the auctions could raise only thirty to forty million in donations at most. This is the most funds we’ve ever raised.”

Ye Chen gave a faint smile, ”Being able to do something for these children makes me very happy, that money should go towards building more school buildings, and using the best materials.”

Elder Lu assured, ”Rest assured; I will handle this matter well.”

After Ye Chen and Su Wanyi finished dinner, he drove Su Wanyi home.

Su Wanyi touched the bracelet on her wrist, very happy, ”Ye Chen, thank you.”

Ye Chen smiled, ”What’s with the politeness? How should you thank me for giving you such a beautiful bracelet?”

Su Wanyi blushed, kissed Ye Chen on the cheek shyly, and then ran out of the car.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for receiving a Five-Star Review and activating the third praise star, obtaining the Gold Head-hunter System.]

The so-called headhunter means recruiting people. Ye Chen can directly recruit talented people through the system.

This system is incredible, what does today’s society lack?

Of course, it’s talent!

At this moment, a news alert popped up on Ye Chen’s phone.

The news was an announcement from Tong Xiaoya’s former employer.

The announcement accused Light and Shadow Film and Television Group of poaching tactics and malicious competition.

Ye Chen knew the other side wouldn’t let it go easily, but didn’t expect the retaliation to come so quickly.
