Lin Shanshan returned to the parking lot, only to see a young man and Chen Li cleaning their car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen was taken aback: “What are you doing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing Ye Chen, Sun Hao hurriedly pulled Chen Li over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye, I’m sorry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My girlfriend couldn’t see who she was dealing with and offended you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You rightly wrecked my car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you’re still upset, feel free to hit this b*tch, it’s fine.” Sun Hao said nervously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Li’s face was extremely unsightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earlier, when Sun Hao arrived, she wanted to complain to him, but unexpectedly, he slapped her twice directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only now did she realize she was nothing when it came to money and interests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen doesn’t usually bother with insignificant people like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen waved his hand: “Forget it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just remember not to be too arrogant in the future.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Ye Chen and Lin Shanshan got into the car and sped away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Hao, what about my Ferrari?” Chen Li said with a tearful face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Slap!” Sun Hao gave Chen Li another slap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ferrari?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Get lost, you vile woman!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You nearly got me killed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, did you have fun today?” Ye Chen asked with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, thank you, Ye Chen.” Lin Shanshan said gratefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This issue had always been a thorn in Lin Shanshan’s side, and Ye Chen helped her remove it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After getting out of the car, Lin Shanshan immediately gave Ye Chen a five-star review.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Ding, congratulations to the host for receiving a five-star review, activating the second star (2\u002F5), rewarding: Piano Master]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Piano Master, another skill?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, Ye Chen received another customer order, followed by his phone ringing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey handsome, have you been missing me?” A teasing voice came through on the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yang Mimi?” Ye Chen immediately recognized the voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, at least you have some conscience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I need your car again.” Yang Mimi said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sis, celebrities usually have nanny cars, okay?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You wouldn’t treat my car as a nanny car, would you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, a Pagani nanny car, how impressive.” Yang Mimi teased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen parked the car at the entrance, and Yang Mimi got in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Modu Art Center?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you performing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, I’m a guest performer at a charity show.” Yang Mimi said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re quite popular now.” Ye Chen teased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thanks to you, I released a single with one of our company’s singers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m already the champion on the top chart, while her song flopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s sweet revenge.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Mimi looked very happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Feifei’s single should have been hers, but it was snatched from her, and the company casually tossed a trash song to Yang Mimi as consolation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thankfully, Ye Chen helped her write a hit song, allowing her to make a comeback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of the song’s success, the company’s resources started to lean towards Yang Mimi again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Yang Mimi’s song hit the top chart, Li Feifei’s face turned green.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen parked the car at Modu Art Center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Mimi laughed and said: “Why not come with me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll treat you to the show, there are a lot of big stars.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Ye Chen was free, he parked the car in the parking lot and walked into the Art Center with Yang Mimi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Mimi and Ye Chen arrived at the dressing room, and a young woman’s face slightly darkened upon seeing Yang Mimi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh wow, Sister Mimi, I didn’t expect the company would invite you to perform too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah, though I’m a bit older, I’m talented, so I guess I can still stay in the spotlight for a few more years.” Yang Mimi said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Feifei’s face looked somewhat gloomy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I worked so hard to step on Yang Mimi and snatch her resources, but didn’t expect her song to blow up again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Feifei suddenly focused on Ye Chen standing behind Yang Mimi, wearing a DiDi work uniform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mimi, is this man your boyfriend?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A DiDi driver, huh?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your taste is getting better.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mind your own business!” Yang Mimi couldn’t be bothered with her and sat down to apply makeup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, a handsome young man walked in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the young man, Li Feifei’s face immediately lit up with an excited smile: “Young Master Chen, did you also come for the charity gala?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Tao did not even acknowledge Li Feifei and directly walked up to Yang Mimi: “Mimi, your song ‘Courage’ is so wonderful, I’ve already made it my phone’s ringtone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Witnessing the closeness between Chen Tao and Yang Mimi, a trace of resentment flashed in Li Feifei’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yang Mimi, just wait, I’ll make you embarrass yourself in public soon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Chen Tao chatted a bit more with Yang Mimi, he left, never even glancing at Li Feifei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This charity event has attracted many big stars from Hua Country and numerous business people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The theme of the performance is raising donations for hope primary schools in mountainous areas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This show is being broadcasted live on Hua Country’s music channel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the performance started, Yang Mimi was earnestly memorizing the lyrics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The song is called ‘The Passage of Love’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen glanced at the lyrics and found them quite mediocre.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was still more than ten minutes before Yang Mimi’s performance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a staff member rushed over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Miss Mimi, could you switch to another song?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why change the song?” Yang Mimi was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’re truly sorry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to a technical issue, your song’s soundtrack was accidentally deleted.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?” Yang Mimi was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could such a serious error occur at a professional show?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Could you download an audio file online?” Yang Mimi asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is an original song, with only one audio file.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The composer can’t be contacted, and it isn’t available online.” The staff explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Feifei on the side sneered coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In that case, we have a backup song called ‘Devotion,’ why don’t you sing this one instead?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But how can I possibly sing an unfamiliar song in such a short time?” Yang Mimi was furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The staff said uneasily: “If you can’t, we’ll have to let another singer perform.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You all…” Yang Mimi was about to lose her temper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mimi, don’t worry, I’ll figure something out.” Ye Chen patted Yang Mimi’s shoulder to comfort her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Since it’s your mistake, you can postpone her performance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She at least needs to get familiar with the new song first.” Ye Chen said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The staff nodded: “Sure, you can have half an hour.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Feifei stood nearby with a smug look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, it’s all her doing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Out of envy for Yang Mimi, Li Feifei bribed a staff member to delete the music file, aiming to embarrass Yang Mimi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen took Yang Mimi to a private room and said: “I’ll teach you a song.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Follow my lead, and I’ll accompany you during the performance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is the call of the heart, this is the devotion of love, it’s the gentle breeze of humanity, the fountain of life!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This song has a distinct rhythm, very easy to learn, and the lyrics are quite moving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Mimi was very smart and learned the song after just a few attempts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ye Chen, did you write this song?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s amazing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Mimi couldn’t help but praise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, she found Ye Chen increasingly unfathomable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Good-looking, wealthy, and this talented, yet he loves driving for DiDi!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, go get ready.” Ye Chen smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay.” Yang Mimi took a deep breath and headed backstage to prepare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Ye Chen was about to leave, suddenly a young man blocked his path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait a moment, can we talk?” The young man said coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>",1289,"2026-06-03T08:12:36.049Z","2026-06-03T08:12:40.664Z",1,"novelbin.me","d66736de53ea2d477c80ed3243d3721cc30f21748105c3acb7b0e994449b747c","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-20","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-18",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-cover.jpg"]
