I bet it’ll start snowing soon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How can you say you’re innocent? Look at how many girls have liked you and wanted you to be their boyfriend since we went out?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaoxiao, you’re wrong to say that. It’s my fault for being so handsome and attracting so many girls. I am guilty.\" Ye Chen retorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Song Xiaoxiao could speak, Ye Chen said, \"Xiaoxiao, how about this: next time we go out, I’ll gear up completely—mask and sunglasses—so others can’t see my face.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Song Xiaoxiao burst out laughing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaoxiao, your laughter means you’re not angry with me anymore, right?\" Ye Chen quickly said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen had his ways of appeasing his girlfriend, following a principle that when she’s angry, regardless of who’s at fault, he ought to bow down and admit he’s wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, no one can stay angry anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ye Chen, stop being so conceited. I’m in no mood to be angry with you.\" Song Xiaoxiao glared at Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Xiaoxiao was indeed easy to appease, and Ye Chen knew this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, this wasn’t Ye Chen’s fault; after thinking it through, Song Xiaoxiao realized those girls were just bold, and it had nothing to do with Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two people together should be happy, so why let trivial things spoil good moods?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaoxiao, have you decided?\" Ye Chen asked gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, I’ll stick with this one.\" Song Xiaoxiao said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This store had a lot of crystal ball music boxes, but she felt the one she chose before was prettier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Waiter, we want this one.\" Ye Chen pointed at the purple carousel music box in front of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The female server smiled upon hearing this, knowing that the one Ye Chen bought was upscale and naturally expensive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just now, those female customers watched Ye Chen decline girls’ confessions, and even when Song Xiaoxiao was unreasonable, he still indulged her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now they saw Ye Chen spend over two thousand on a carousel music box for Song Xiaoxiao, showing envious expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, among these people, most men thought spending a hundred on a music box was entirely unnecessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Honey, look at him, buying such an expensive gift for his girlfriend. I just asked for something worth three hundred, and you keep stalling, making me so sad.\" A girl spoke to her boyfriend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man was also surprised by Ye Chen’s actions, seeing Ye Chen looking like a college student but being so generous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, he watched Ye Chen indulge Song Xiaoxiao, admiring him; if he were accused by his girlfriend, he would leave angrily, rather than staying in the store and picking a music box with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only that couple, but other girls present also used Ye Chen’s example to teach their boyfriends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look at him, then at yourself. You get angry at a little thing and are so stingy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Honey, learn from him. As a man, you should learn to be soft in front of your girlfriend, don’t you think so?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Voices of girls admonishing boys echoed around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those men listened quietly, not daring to breathe loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before this, they thought they treated their girlfriends well, but seeing Ye Chen, they reflected a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Ye Chen and Song Xiaoxiao heard these remarks too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaoxiao, see how lucky you are, it’s like you found a treasure.\" Ye Chen said proudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ye Chen, stop being so arrogant. What treasure are you?\" Song Xiaoxiao countered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite her words, her heart was blooming with joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding looks, Ye Chen could rival movie stars, and in terms of generosity, he was far better than most, with unparalleled care and love for his girlfriend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss, you are so fortunate; look at your boyfriend buying you such an expensive gift.\" The female server said with envy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen heard this and laughed heartily, knowing that in their eyes, spending a thousand was considered valuable, but for him, it was just a drop in the bucket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Xiaoxiao said nothing, but her face blushed slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them carried the packaged carousel music box out of the store under everyone’s envious gazes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was dinnertime, and since Song Xiaoxiao wanted grilled fish, they went to a newly opened shop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following the server’s recommendation, they ordered a bass with vine pepper and green pepper flavor and some hot pot ingredients, trying this taste for the first time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen and Song Xiaoxiao approached this with trial-and-error spirit, because the store was new, and the server’s suggestion might not suit their tastes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when the fish arrived, the aroma wafting from the pot made their mouths water uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had to admit, this taste was tantalizing, prompting their appetites even before tasting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, they felt they hadn’t digested lunch, deciding to eat lightly for dinner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, smelling this numbing fragrance made them feel hungry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a word, they picked up their chopsticks and began eating, no longer conversing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the fish was devoured, leaving only bones, and Song Xiaoxiao even ate a bowl of rice today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was supposed to be dieting recently, avoiding staples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fish’s flavor was so enticing, and the grilled fish’s broth mixed with the rice’s aroma was irresistible; she planned to eat a few bites but ended up consuming a full bowl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Xiaoxiao looked at the empty bowl before her, feeling guilty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had controlled herself for days but made an exception today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ye Chen, it’s your fault for making me eat so much tonight; now I’ve gained weight again.\" Song Xiaoxiao said, puffing up angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen looked at the girl before him, amused; Song Xiaoxiao seemed like an angry pufferfish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaoxiao, you’ll be even cuter with a bit of weight.\" Ye Chen chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph, I don’t want that. What should I do now? I’m gaining weight again, boo hoo hoo~~~\" Song Xiaoxiao felt wronged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, she truly enjoyed the meal, but her weight was going up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gaining weight is easy, but losing a few pounds is quite challenging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry, Xiaoxiao, I have a solution.\" Ye Chen smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ye Chen, really? Tell me quickly.\" Song Xiaoxiao asked anxiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s a secret.\" Ye Chen teasingly replied.\u003C\u002Fp>",1077,"2026-06-03T08:13:10.846Z","2026-06-03T08:13:15.311Z",1,"novelbin.me","080d107be2e1154e5998ab4be2df740704b4a3061fe955b79336ca32d822e8d8","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-1193","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-1191",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-cover.jpg"]
