I can show you other options.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, selling each piece of luxury brand clothing comes with a decent commission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl shook her head, “Never mind, I don’t think this dress suits me, I’ll try other stores.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen came over at this point, “You haven’t made a choice yet? Look, this dress is pretty nice.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue saw that the dress Ye Chen was holding was priced at three hundred thousand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She quickly shook her head, saying, “No way, that dress is too expensive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, the girl who was about to leave suddenly called out, “Ye Chen.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen was startled, turned his head towards the girl and excitedly said, “You are Dai Lili?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you doing here?” Ye Chen asked with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dai Lili chuckled, “I’m out shopping.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, Dai Lili glanced at Ye Chen and smirked, “What about you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue also looked at Dai Lili with curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen introduced with a smile, “This is my college classmate, Dai Lili.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue laughed, “Oh, so she’s your classmate? She’s really pretty.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dai Lili mischievously watched Ye Chen, “And you two are…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is someone I just met.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dai Lili couldn’t help but laugh, “Don’t try to fool me, buying such expensive clothes for someone you just met? She must be your girlfriend.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen was just about to explain when Cao Xue unexpectedly linked her arm with his.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue had no intention of letting such an outstanding guy slip away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue smiled, “We did just meet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although what Cao Xue said sounded casual, everyone could see the two seemed like a close couple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dai Lili was speechless, “You just met and got along so well, impressive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen felt a bit awkward but didn’t say anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, did you find any clothes you like?” Ye Chen asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dai Lili replied, “Your friend liked that dress.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen said with a smile, “Since you liked it, why not try it on?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue shook her head and whispered, “Your classmate liked that dress.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Cao Xue, Dai Lili smiled, “I hadn’t really intended to buy it, was just trying it on.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen said, “Why don’t you try the one I suggested earlier.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue shook her head again, “No, it’s too expensive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen replied, “Trust me, try it on, I bet it’ll look great.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue had no choice but to take the dress to the fitting room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dai Lili laughed, “Your girlfriend is nice, knows how to save you money. Do you know why she liked that dress? Because it’s cheap.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen chuckled, “We’re really not boyfriend and girlfriend.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he explained the situation to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dai Lili finally understood, “Oh, so that’s how it is.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue came out, “You seemed to have a nice chat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Cao Xue came out wearing the dress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, seeing Dai Lili and Ye Chen so close made Cao Xue feel a bit sour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dai Lili said, “Nothing much, I was just complimenting how pretty you look in that dress.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, Dai Lili waved, “Old classmate, let’s catch up sometime.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen bid farewell to Dai Lili and then asked Cao Xue, “Do you like this dress?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue blushed slightly, “It’s really beautiful, but it’s too expensive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The clerk quickly said, “Miss, this dress is part of our new season collection, made with the finest materials, and fits perfectly, only ten in the world.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen asked, “How much is this dress?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The clerk nodded, “After discount, it’s two hundred eighty thousand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen finished speaking and handed over his card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The clerk took the card and said, “Alright.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen glanced over and said, “Your outfit looks nice, but it could use a skirt to match, clerk, get her a skirt to go with it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue quickly said, “That’s really not necessary.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Ye Chen spent twenty-eight thousand on her, she already felt quite embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Ye Chen got Cao Xue a matching skirt, spending over fifty thousand in total.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue changed into a new outfit, looking even more beautiful than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen chuckled, “By the way, do you have any plans later?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue paused momentarily, “I need to continue sending out resumes. If I can’t find a job soon, my pig-like roommate will kick me out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen chuckled, “How about I give you a ride home.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two went to the basement, and Cao Xue was stunned to see Ye Chen’s car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is this car yours?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Cao Xue didn’t recognize Ye Chen’s Lykan HyperSport, she could tell it was expensive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen chuckled and said, “Hop in.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue gave Ye Chen the address, and Ye Chen drove towards the navigation target.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your car’s really pricey, right?” Cao Xue asked, a bit tense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen chuckled, “Not too bad, not too expensive.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue said, “This is the first time I’ve ridden in such a high-end car.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen chuckled again as he drove to Cao Xue’s doorstep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue awkwardly asked, “Do you want to come up for a bit?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Generally, when a girl invites a guy to her place, he would surely agree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Ye Chen didn’t even hesitate when he answered, “No need.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, Ye Chen drove away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue stood there, stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He really just left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue originally thought Ye Chen would come up and sit for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t help but feel hurt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, a voice came from behind, “Cao Xue.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue turned and saw her roommate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tian Ya?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Ya and Cao Xue were roommates and close friends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Cao Xue, Tian Ya laughed, “What’s the matter with you, looking so aggrieved? Don’t worry, though you can’t pay rent, your big sis will take care of you; but don’t do anything stupid.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Tian Ya saw Cao Xue getting out of a luxury car, she thought Ye Chen was keeping her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Xue’s face turned red as she hurriedly said, “It’s not like you think.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1182,"2026-06-03T08:12:57.084Z","2026-06-03T08:13:00.904Z",1,"novelbin.me","d8ab4873bb5ab04250e0a4d715d86aa85d8aeb822f4ac8f8acd764b25e993175","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-870","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-868",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-cover.jpg"]
