Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group

Capítulo 1186: Chapter 1161: Completely Dumbfounded

When Song Xiaoxiao walked out of the dormitory, Li Mei sent a message to Brother Hei: “Song Xiaoxiao has left.”

When Song Xiaoxiao came out, Ye Chen was already waiting at the door.

Seeing Ye Chen, she smiled and said, “Have you been waiting long?”

“No, I just got here too,” Ye Chen replied.

Actually, she was worried about Song Xiaoxiao’s safety and never left, just waiting nearby.

Besides, she saw Li Mei get into a black Audi, and also saw her being thrown out of the car. It was two kind classmates who helped her walk inside.

Ye Chen saw all of this, but he didn’t know where Li Mei went or why she ended up like that.

Ye Chen wasn’t concerned about Li Mei at all. This woman had nothing to do with him, as long as she didn’t hurt Song Xiaoxiao, he could ignore her. Otherwise, he wouldn’t let it go easily.

“Ye Chen, where are we going?” Song Xiaoxiao asked with a smile.

“You decide, anywhere is fine. But wherever we go, we should get in the car first, don’t you think?” Ye Chen teased with a smile.

Song Xiaoxiao was chatting with Ye Chen at the school gate the whole time, forgetting to get in the car. Maybe she was too excited to see Ye Chen, or perhaps the incident that morning got her emotions stirred up.

She stuck out her tongue and sat obediently in the passenger seat, and Ye Chen got into the car as well.

“Ye Chen, let’s go shopping,” Song Xiaoxiao said, blinking her bright doe-like eyes.

“No problem, whatever you say. Today I’m your personal driver,” Ye Chen said with a smile.

The car headed towards Wanxiang City, where the mall had all the major luxury brands. Every girl loves shopping there.

“Xiaoxiao, how did you do on the exam?” Ye Chen asked with concern.

“Who am I? A top student. Such exams are nothing to me,” Song Xiaoxiao boasted.

Ye Chen showed a bit of helplessness. This Song Xiaoxiao was so confident.

Ye Chen had never asked about Song Xiaoxiao’s studies before; today was the first time.

Ever since he saw her, her face was always graced with a smile, and she was even singing. Ye Chen thought something good must have happened.

“Xiaoxiao, why do you seem so happy today?” Ye Chen couldn’t help but ask.

“Of course I’m happy to see you,” Song Xiaoxiao replied quickly.

“I don’t think so. We met before and I didn’t see you this happy,” Ye Chen gave her a sideways look, obviously knowing she was lying.

“Alright, alright, nothing can be hidden from you,” Song Xiaoxiao said. “I was planning to tell you during dinner, but since you asked, I’ll tell you. Something really great happened today.”

“And that is, in front of the whole class, I gave Li Mei a good scolding,” Song Xiaoxiao said with a proud look.

“You can scold people? How come I didn’t know this?” Ye Chen asked back.

He knew Song Xiaoxiao very well. This girl wouldn’t curse at anyone, not even utter a swear word.

Although Song Tao didn’t have good character, he had taught Song Xiaoxiao very well to be well-mannered and polite, the typical image of a rich family’s daughter.

Hearing that she would’ve cursed, Ye Chen clearly didn’t believe it.

“Ye Chen, how can you interrupt people like that? It’s very impolite,” Song Xiaoxiao pouted and pretended to be angry.

“Okay, okay, continue,” Ye Chen was amused by the look on her face.

Song Xiaoxiao retold the whole incident that happened in the classroom that morning to Ye Chen, her face always carrying a proud expression.

However, Ye Chen frowned. He thought Song Xiaoxiao was truly a naive girl and couldn’t help worrying about her.

Seeing Ye Chen’s expression being a bit heavy, Song Xiaoxiao seemed like a deflated balloon and asked, “Ye Chen, I’ve grown stronger now; Li Mei won’t dare bully me anymore. Why aren’t you happy for me?”

“Who said that? I just thought of something suddenly,” Ye Chen lied.

Now Ye Chen was quite worried about Song Xiaoxiao’s safety. He knew with Li Mei’s character, being humiliated by Song Xiaoxiao in front of the class was something she wouldn’t easily let go of, and such a woman had likely already harbored malicious intent.

Song Xiaoxiao was rather at risk, and Ye Chen had to protect her completely, not letting this pure-hearted silly girl get hurt one bit.

“What is it?” Song Xiaoxiao asked.

Then she showed a displeased expression and said, “Ye Chen, I’m angry. I’m talking to you, and you’re not listening carefully, thinking of other things.”

“Come on, you’re wronging me here. I was thinking about what reward to give Xiaoxiao for doing so well on the exam, standing up to her bully. What should I gift her?” Ye Chen said, feeling a bit wronged.

“Oh, sorry, Ye Chen, it was my mistake to blame you,” Song Xiaoxiao promptly said.

The two of them chatted like this along the way and soon arrived at the entrance of Wanxiang City.

Ye Chen drove the car into the underground parking lot, parked, and led Song Xiaoxiao toward the mall.

“Ye Chen, I’m thirsty,” Song Xiaoxiao looked at Ye Chen and said.

“Let’s go, let’s buy drinks. What do you want?” Ye Chen asked.

“HeyTea,” Song Xiaoxiao answered.

Ye Chen felt a headache upon hearing this name. Every time they bought it, it took ages, not understanding why this place was so popular.

The two of them got in line at the HeyTea shop to order. The clerk looked at the couple in front with a smile and asked, “Sir, Miss, there are 88 customers ahead of you. Do you want to wait?”

“Wait, of course, we have to wait.” Before Ye Chen could say anything, Song Xiaoxiao promptly replied.

She had been craving this for a long time. She couldn’t miss the opportunity now that she had the chance.

Looking at the menu, they ordered a cheese peach tea and snow mountain lychee.

Holding their order ticket and looking around, there was no place to sit; the shop was already filled with people waiting for their orders.

“Look, that guy is so handsome. Is he a movie star?”

“You must be joking. I think he’s even better looking than movie stars.”

“I plan to go over and ask if he has a girlfriend. I’d love to be his girlfriend,” the two nearby girls were discussing.

Song Xiaoxiao and Ye Chen weren’t standing together initially, but after hearing the discussions, Song Xiaoxiao hurriedly walked over to Ye Chen and grabbed his arm.

Ye Chen was startled by this sudden move and asked Song Xiaoxiao in surprise, “Xiaoxiao, what’s wrong?”

“Ye Chen, you’re a taken man, got it?” Song Xiaoxiao said proudly, glancing at the two girls at the table.

Ye Chen was utterly confused by Song Xiaoxiao’s words. What was this girl up to? What she said was downright peculiar.
