of King Bi (Part 1, Seeking Subscription) 120: Chapter 119: Pretending to Be in Front of King Bi (Part 1, Seeking Subscription) With a smug smile on his face, Ma Jincheng said, “Ye Chen, I may have just joined Rick, but I’m already the third-in-command director there, arranging for someone to go isn’t a problem.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he looked at Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hoped to see a look of surprise or even flattery on Ye Chen’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to Ma Jincheng’s disappointment, Ye Chen remained as calm as still water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, Feng Tao and the others were taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Jincheng, you’re amazing, you’re this impressive now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I didn’t expect you to become a big shot at such a young age, impressive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Respect, becoming the third-in-command at Rick Group at such a young age, truly impressive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The classmates looked at Ma Jincheng with eyes full of admiration and respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Jincheng wore a contented smile, the only dissatisfaction was Ye Chen’s attitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, you’re driving for DiDi and still pretending with me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Lili chimed in from the side, “Jincheng, your annual salary must be over a million now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Jincheng nodded, “A million is just the base, with bonuses it’s almost two million.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wow, that’s impressive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Amazing, truly a big shot.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd was once again astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Jincheng’s vanity was satisfied, and he was very happy inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, actually in our class, the one who used to be best at studies was Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But I don’t know what happened, he ended up driving for DiDi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially, I didn’t want to mention it, afraid of hurting his pride, but how could I watch my classmate drive for DiDi?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen, how about this, I’ll arrange a job for you with a monthly salary of twenty thousand?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, Ma Jincheng continued, “Ye Chen, rest assured, with me at the company to cover you, even if you’re not good at the job, it’s okay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take it slowly, follow me, there will definitely be no problem.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Jincheng spoke confidently, but deep down, he had another thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as Ye Chen became his subordinate, he could command Ye Chen at will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking about making his once unattainable opponent submit under his feet, Ma Jincheng grew more excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Jincheng had already planned that if Ye Chen agreed, he would immediately order Ye Chen to pour tea and fetch water, embarrassing him in front of classmates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Ye Chen refused to save face, then no matter, he could still lecture Ye Chen with a “I tried to help you, but you didn’t appreciate it” tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, no matter how Ye Chen chose, he could keep Ye Chen firmly underfoot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For so many years, Ye Chen had been his nightmare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From today, Ye Chen will finally be under my foot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Ma Jincheng even felt he was standing on top of his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen responded calmly after hearing, “I appreciate your good intention, but I’m fine with driving for DiDi, thanks.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Jincheng was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t expect Ye Chen, in such a terrible state, to still worry about so-called face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, you’re driving for DiDi and still trying to act superior with me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Jincheng intended to show off, but if Ye Chen actually liked driving for DiDi, he couldn’t force it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That wouldn’t achieve the effect of showing off, instead making him look too eager.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Jincheng had to resort to plan B.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said indifferently, “Ye Chen, people aim higher, water flows lower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In such a competitive society, if you keep driving for DiDi, you’ll eventually be ousted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You should be like me, going out with luxury cars and a secretary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s the pinnacle of life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although you may not reach my level, I believe if you try hard, you can at least live better than ordinary people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least, you could change your shabby Jetta.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jetta?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd was puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feng Tao had just seen Ye Chen come in with a Cullinan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Jincheng became more enthusiastic as he spoke, unabashedly showing off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rolled up his sleeve, revealing a Rolex watch on his wrist, and said, “A man must aim high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s how you can have luxury cars, beauties, and mansions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen, face isn’t that valuable in society these days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You shouldn’t refuse my goodwill over so-called pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Tian Lili, Feng Tao, and He Jia sitting there were speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luxury cars, beauties, mansions—Ye Chen seemed to lack none.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The last time, Ye Chen had shown just how impressive he was at the hotel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t it impressive to own a significant stake in a top-three hotel in Hua Country?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dinner costing two hundred thousand, would he be short of money?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Lili couldn’t help blurting, “Jincheng, actually Ye Chen is doing quite well.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Ma Jincheng was fully engrossed in his act, interpreting the curious glances around him as reverence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Honestly, Ye Chen, if a DiDi Brother was my classmate, I would feel somewhat embarrassed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, a few people walked towards them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Jincheng’s face changed suddenly as he stood up quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why is our Chairman here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, he walked quickly to greet them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the Chairman, Ma Jincheng lost all his previous bravado, now looking up at him like a submissive lapdog with a fawning face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“President Wu?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How come you’re here?” Ma Jincheng bowed, a smiling servant look on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Peng noticed Ma Jincheng and nodded, “Xiaoma, you are here too, I have a project to inspect, so I came over.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Chairman Wu, you’re so dedicated, such small tasks should be left to us, no need to trouble yourself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, mainly it’s just to relax a bit, and also because I encountered an important guest here, whom I want to meet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, yes, Chairman Wu, if you need anything, just tell me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, Ma Jincheng returned to his seat and continued showing off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did you see?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s our Chairman Wu, worth billions, a business mogul in Modu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you know how much is this project our boss is discussing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Billions!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Wu Peng saw Ye Chen sitting among the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“President Ye, so there you are, I’ve been looking all over for you,” Wu Peng eagerly approached Ye Chen and said respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the Chairman come over, Ma Jincheng immediately stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the Chairman’s respectful demeanor towards Ye Chen puzzled him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s going on?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen glanced at Wu Peng, finding him somewhat familiar, and smiled, “And you are?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m Wu Peng, our company rents from your Financial Mansion.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh,” Ye Chen smiled and nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“President Ye, this chance encounter, you must give me the opportunity to have a meal with you, okay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re too polite.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, it’s very important for our company.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being acquainted with you is truly an honor,” Wu Peng said nervously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the other’s enthusiasm, Ye Chen could only nod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Ma Jincheng was utterly dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t Ye Chen just a DiDi driver?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did he become President Ye?\u003C\u002Fp>",1199,"2026-06-03T08:12:36.328Z","2026-06-03T08:12:40.944Z",1,"novelbin.me","3bfe5cbc4cf41c87c39c1d7123164899235cc194a1436fc745ddff3035bc6330","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-121","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-119",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-cover.jpg"]
