Financial Mansion is such a prestigious place. If any random person can come in, how could this building’s image be maintained? I’ll have to talk to Mr. Ye about this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Kuan laughed: \"There’s no need. This happens to be our Financial Mansion’s owner, Mr. Ye. You can discuss it with him directly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" Sun Hui was suddenly stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, two employees passed by Ye Chen and greeted him respectfully: \"Chairman Ye!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Hui was completely amazed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t believe that his luck was so bad that he actually ran into Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Kuan respectfully said: \"President Ye, this guy here claimed he knew you and wanted to rent a warehouse space as an office at our Financial Mansion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What, a warehouse space? Not a floor?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s quite a difference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Hui looked dumbfounded at Ye Chen, his face full of embarrassment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen smiled faintly: \"We do know each other. He just took my car to the Financial Mansion and asked me to make up two bucks for him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, Ye Chen turned and walked away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Hui: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Ye Chen’s back, Sun Hui was completely stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Kuan quickly caught on and joked with Sun Hui: \"President Sun, you can rent the warehouse space, but the rent will have to double.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Hui had no face left to rent an office here anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was actually just running a shell company and rented an office here to put on a front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t afford a regular office, so he rented a warehouse space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doubling the rent was something he couldn’t afford.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never expected to show off and run into the real owner, having his face slapped soundly.\u003C\u002Fp>",1357,"2026-06-03T08:12:36.328Z","2026-06-03T08:12:40.944Z",1,"novelbin.me","8a8ae3b09283a6ca86cf433f7491b78031781461d7e89e90c91c14fb204c58f7","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-275","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-273",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-cover.jpg"]
