Do you think helicopters are that easy to buy?\" Tong Xiaoya looked at Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen chuckled awkwardly: \"What’s wrong with helicopters, come to Modu, I’ll fly a helicopter and take you around.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than an hour later, the car turned into a small alley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The car stopped at the roadside. Tong Xiaoya put on sunglasses, a mask, and a big hat. After she finished disguising, she invited Ye Chen to get off the car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen saw a lane not far away, with no signboard at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Ye Chen understood, the deeper these old Imperial Capital eateries, the better the taste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Xiaoya said: \"Don’t be fooled by this shop being hidden in a deep alley, its stir-fried tripe is famous in Kyoto. Many people come because of its reputation. I’m quite familiar with the owner and managed to slip in. Otherwise, you’d have had to book a month in advance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen laughed: \"Sister Xiaoya is really nice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Xiaoya led Ye Chen into the small shop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Tong Xiaoya was well-covered, the owner seemed quite familiar with Xiaoya.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An elderly man with white hair smiled and asked: \"Xiaoya, brought a friend today?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Xiaoya nodded: \"Yes, Old Zhang, my friend is from afar today. The usual, stir-fried tripe, eight big bowls, and fried intestines.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You got it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Tong Xiaoya is a celebrity, she’s very popular in the Hua Country film industry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, the owner brought out some appetizers, including fried peanuts and mixed edamame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Xiaoya smiled: \"Try it, the taste is really good. I come here every now and then to satisfy my cravings.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen tasted and the flavor was indeed very good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because Tong Xiaoya is a celebrity, the two people were in a private room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, the owner brought out the dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Xiaoya excitedly said: \"Try it, how’s the taste? Old Zhang is a real Old Beijing, his skills are definitely top-notch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen tasted it, and the flavor was indeed unique. Even those Michelin three-star chefs couldn’t make such traditional dishes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two were eating and chatting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the door to the private room was pushed open, and a man with a red-drunk face walked in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After entering, he was momentarily stunned when he saw Ye Chen and Tong Xiaoya.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry, wrong room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But soon, the man stared at Tong Xiaoya excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wow, Tong Xiaoya.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Tong Xiaoya, the big man surprisingly shouted towards outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone come and see, it’s Tong Xiaoya.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Xiaoya’s expression slightly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, she is a public figure, and if news got out that she was eating with a strange man, it would surely cause a sensational wave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen frowned and stood up, closed the door, and pushed the man out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry, we’re eating; please don’t disturb us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn, what’s wrong? Aren’t celebrities meant to be seen? Move the hell aside.\" The man, emboldened by alcohol, tried to push Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen deliberately stepped back a few steps and then said to the people around: \"Everyone saw it, he started it first, I’m acting in self-defense.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that said, Ye Chen directly punched the big man’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man didn’t react at all and stumbled from Ye Chen’s punch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it, you dare hit me, Master Hu. I’ll fight you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The big man, after being punched, got angry, stood up, and rushed towards Ye Chen with a bottle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen snorted coldly and directly kicked the man in the body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The big man was kicked by Ye Chen and flew out, heavily landing on the ground unconscious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the room, Tong Xiaoya was anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This being the Imperial Capital, if Ye Chen hit someone, he might get arrested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, many people were already gathered near the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the fight started, people’s attention shifted from Tong Xiaoya to Ye Chen beating the man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen saw the man was knocked out, then dialed a phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this the police station? There’s a wanted criminal here. I’ve subdued him. Bring your people over to take him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A wanted criminal?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Ye Chen’s words, everyone around was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen looked around and asked: \"Who is the accomplice of this wanted criminal?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people who were eating with the big man all shrank their necks and sneaked away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long ago, this big man was wanted for extortion and fled to Kyoto.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, he ran into trouble as soon as he got here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Xiaoya looked out the window at the situation outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What puzzled her was how Ye Chen knew the man was a wanted criminal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, the reason Ye Chen was willing to act so boldly just now was that he saw the man’s profile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he was a wanted criminal, it’s fine, hitting him doesn’t matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the police arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To everyone’s surprise, after verification, this guy turned out to be a wanted criminal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen made a simple statement before returning to the private room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Xiaoya curiously asked: \"How did you know he was a wanted criminal?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"His face has a wanted criminal look, intuition.\" Ye Chen said mysteriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch, didn’t expect you to be pretty good at fighting.\" Tong Xiaoya said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, then you can hire me as your personal bodyguard next time,\" Ye Chen said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch, I can’t afford you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tong Xiaoya knows a bit about Ye Chen’s background.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dinner, Tong Xiaoya took Ye Chen to stroll around Houhai, and then they returned to the hotel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arriving downstairs at the hotel, Tong Xiaoya teasingly said: \"Aren’t you going to invite me upstairs for a cup of tea?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1245,"2026-06-03T08:12:36.329Z","2026-06-03T08:12:40.945Z",1,"novelbin.me","2b76aeb4c07ca05a32a0bd70c38cb4285f442868e809cef27f3f02fa6f601921","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-464","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-462",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-cover.jpg"]
