You should’ve seen the look on those people’s faces just now,” Song Xiaoxiao said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The wine wasn’t arranged by me,” Ye Chen said, frowning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did want Li Yan to give up chasing Song Xiaoxiao, but this wasn’t his plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If it wasn’t you, who else could it be?” Song Xiaoxiao simply didn’t believe what Ye Chen said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who on earth arranged all of this?” Ye Chen thought silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was also very curious to know who was so kind to help him out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen didn’t leave the restaurant but instead approached the manager and asked, “Manager, I didn’t order that wine. Who was so generous to send it to me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, Mr. Ye, this wine was specifically arranged by Su Wanyi, President Su,” the manager said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The manager’s expression was full of envy; Ye Chen was young but had managed to impress a wealthy president, indicating a bright future ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If only he could achieve something like Ye Chen’s success.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, thank you,” Ye Chen said and then left the restaurant with Song Xiaoxiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that it was arranged by Su Wanyi, Ye Chen felt a warm sensation in his heart. This girl truly loved him, giving him so much face in public.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed Su Wanyi also knew about him dining with Song Xiaoxiao, yet she was still willing to help him. Such a woman was indeed rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Su Wanyi?” Song Xiaoxiao repeated the name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She seemed to recall Ye Chen mentioning that this woman was his girlfriend. Could it be that she already knew about Ye Chen and her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but feel worried and afraid. After all, Su Wanyi was an accomplished person, and separating her from Ye Chen would be effortless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Wanyi is my girlfriend, and the woman I love most in my life,” Ye Chen openly expressed his feelings in front of the girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he and Su Wanyi had been through a lot together, and their relationship was incomparable to that with other girls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course I know that, but Su Wanyi sent you wine. She must know about us dining together, and I’m worried…” Song Xiaoxiao frowned, trailing off without finishing her sentence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re worried that Wanyi will be unhappy, right, and also afraid she might come looking for you to leave me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen voiced all of Song Xiaoxiao’s concerns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, if she really comes to me, I wouldn’t even know what to do,” Song Xiaoxiao said, looking aggrieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t worry, Wanyi won’t do that, and she has long known about your presence,” Ye Chen said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Xiaoxiao could hardly believe Ye Chen’s words, her eyes widening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a woman, she thought no woman could tolerate the man she loved having others around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiaoxiao, rest assured, Wanyi is different from other women. She’s very confident and self-reliant and believes the more successful a man is, the more women he will have around him,” Ye Chen consoled her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ye Chen, you’re just boasting about how excellent you are, aren’t you,” Song Xiaoxiao said, rolling her eyes at Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am excellent by nature; no need for boasting,” Ye Chen said nonchalantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen was indeed exceptional, and he kept a lot of his talents hidden beneath the surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, alright, enough talking. Hurry up and drive me back to school,” Song Xiaoxiao said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, as you command.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen started the car and drove towards Song Xiaoxiao’s school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside a private room at the Vienna Western Restaurant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Li Yan, are you an idiot? How could a delivery guy afford such an expensive wine?” Zhan Hua said, looking at Li Yan reproachfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, he wanted to mock Ye Chen in front of everyone, but unexpectedly, Ye Chen turned out to be so generous, directly ordering a bottle of wine worth tens of thousands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Hua, you can’t blame me for this. It was the information provided by my friend,” Li Yan said, looking aggrieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he saw the restaurant manager personally delivering the wine and lobster, he was also in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were a mere delivery guy, how could even the restaurant manager be so respectful?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The information from his friend must have been wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He intended to use Zhan Hua to taunt and mock Ye Chen but instead ended up being the fool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Li Yan, I assure you that with such idiocy, our Iris Group will never cooperate with your company, so give up on that idea,” Zhan Hua said angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, he thought he could restore his dignity, but today’s embarrassment turned out to be immense. If his grandfather found out he was showing off in front of a bigwig, he’d certainly get a harsh lecture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this matter got out, it would undoubtedly become a joke within their circle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more Zhan Hua looked at Li Yan, the angrier he became, even deciding to cut off all contact with such a fool in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yan trembled upon hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had specifically invited Zhan Hua, firstly to bolster his own image, and secondly, to discuss cooperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cooperation task was assigned by his grandfather, and if completed successfully, he could secure a significant position in the Li Group, commanding respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now everything had gone wrong, and he didn’t know how to explain it when he returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nevertheless, the others didn’t care about Li Yan and Zhan Hua’s embarrassment, only regretting not getting to taste the wine worth tens of thousands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This dinner party quickly ended on a sour note after Ye Chen and Song Xiaoxiao left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Zhan Hua’s furious expression, Li Yan regretted deeply; it was truly a mistake caused by women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, he had embarrassed Zhan Hua, making future cooperation even more difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he knew it was all because of Ye Chen, how could he dare provoke someone of Ye Chen’s strength?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He decided it was best to stay away from Song Xiaoxiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This lady having someone as powerful as Ye Chen by her side left no room for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Yan and the others also drove away from the Vienna Restaurant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The car stopped in front of the school, and as Song Xiaoxiao was about to leave, she smiled at Ye Chen and said, “Ye Chen, thank you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank me for what?” Ye Chen asked in return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now that Li Yan knows how powerful my boyfriend is, he certainly won’t dare to bother me anymore. Seeing him pestering me every day was annoying,” Song Xiaoxiao said, frowning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But now it’s fine, no one will dare bother me again,” Song Xiaoxiao said, her face suddenly breaking into a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as she said, with what happened today, Li Yan wouldn’t dare trouble Song Xiaoxiao anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>",1150,"2026-06-03T08:13:09.113Z","2026-06-03T08:13:14.205Z",1,"novelbin.me","6d752a6181f804f0c47847b985604f6e130ddf31ac2d608a28153f1989492197","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-1146","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-1144",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-cover.jpg"]
