Chapter 127: I Admit My Mistake to You

~8 min read 1,434 words

Suffering successive blows, Mei Ping was sweating like rain, unable to even stand steady, and had to support the wall with his hand.

Xiao Churan didn't know who he was talking to on the phone, but seeing Mei Ping suddenly change his expression after answering a call, as if he was about to have a sudden acute illness, she couldn't help but be puzzled.

"Ye Chen, did Mei Ping have a sudden acute illness?"

Ye Chen said with a smile: "Maybe. He is sick in the brain, and he can't even remember what kind of thing he is."

The secretary's panicked crying still came from the phone, but Mei Ping couldn't hear it anymore. There was a buzzing in his ears, and his head was full of Ye Chen's sentence just now.

"You are already bankrupt!"

Mei Ping was covered in cold sweat, looked up in horror, and stared at Ye Chen tightly.

Could it be that he had foreknowledge?

He... really went bankrupt!

Mei Ping slid down along the wall, full of despair.

Ye Chen looked at him coldly and said to Xiao Churan: "Let's go."

Xiao Churan didn't know what was wrong with Mei Ping, but she didn't want to see this person again, so she turned and left.

Just at this time, Mei Ping suddenly woke up and looked up at Ye Chen fiercely!

He suddenly crawled up and rushed toward Ye Chen's back.

Just as Ye Chen was about to get in the car, Mei Ping rushed over, his eyes blood-red, panting, his eyes staring at him tightly.

Mei Ping's crazy look made Xiao Churan nervous, and she subconsciously took a step back behind Ye Chen.

"It was you who did it, right? It was you who did all this, right?"

Mei Ping stared at Ye Chen and asked in a panic.

Ye Chen looked at Mei Ping and said expressionlessly: "Get out!"

The tone was crisp and neat, just like scolding a dog.

The crowd watching looked at each other!

Damn!

Isn't this the famous President Mei?

This young man is dressed like a passerby, actually daring to tell President Mei to get out in public?

Doesn't want to mix in Jin Ling City anymore?

However...

Under the eyes of everyone, Mei Ping suddenly knelt in front of Ye Chen with a *thump*, and said with a mournful face: "Master Ye, I was wrong! Please, give me a way to live."

There was silence all around, and the crowd simply couldn't believe their eyes.

Mei Ping, the famous construction tycoon in Jin Ling City, actually knelt in front of a passerby!

Even Xiao Churan was stunned, completely not expecting Mei Ping to kneel to Ye Chen. [127

"Master Ye, it is I who deserve to die; I shouldn't have had designs on Xiao Churan! I was wrong, I repent, and I will never dare to offend again. I beg you to show mercy and not play me to death..."

As Mei Ping spoke, he slapped himself hard across the face, the sounds crisp and loud.

Ye Chen remained expressionless, watching him slap himself a dozen times until his mouth was bleeding, before saying indifferently, "President Mei, I don't know what you are talking about."

"Master Ye, once Qiancheng Company goes bankrupt, not only will I not have a single cent, but I will also have hundreds of millions in debt that I can't pay off, and I won't be able to pay it back even in my next life!"

Mei Ping knelt on the ground, begging bitterly, completely devoid of the demeanor of a successful businessman he had just moments ago.

Everything had happened too suddenly and was too coincidental!

The moment Ye Chen mentioned he would "go bankrupt," Qiancheng Company faced one disaster after another; it was certain to go bankrupt tomorrow!

Everything seemed like a coincidence, but how could it be such a coincidence?

Mei Ping vaguely sensed that what was happening must be related to Ye Chen, so he disregarded his pride and knelt in public.

Xiao Churan did not know the content of the phone call and couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Mei Ping, isn't your company doing fine? Besides, what does your bankruptcy have to do with Ye Chen?"

Mei Ping knelt on the ground and said, "Sister Ran, I offended you just now, and I apologize to you! My company just called to say that clients are canceling contracts, partnerships are being withdrawn, and banks are calling in debts. I'm finished... Please put in a good word for me in front of Master Ye, otherwise, I really have no way to survive."

Xiao Churan was stunned for a moment and said, "I think you've made a mistake; Ye Chen doesn't have that much power."

Ye Chen also said indifferently, "Mei Ping, everything in this world has a cause and effect. It's useless to beg me; you should reflect on yourself properly."

After saying this, he took Xiao Churan and got into the car.

After Ye Chen drove away, Mei Ping was still kneeling blankly by the side of the road.

The crowd around them grew larger and larger, all looking at him with surprised eyes and whispering incessantly.

But Mei Ping could no longer care about that.

Starting tomorrow, he would fall from a high-and-mighty successful person to a beggar on the street!

No, even worse than a beggar!

Not only did he have no money, but he also had to pay hundreds of millions in breach-of-contract penalties!

His phone kept ringing, and his assistant's panicked voice came through.

"President Mei... the loan shark company called, saying the interest rate has increased by ten points and they are coming to collect tomorrow. If you can't pay, they'll chop off your right hand..."

"President Mei, the landlord of our office building called to say they are raising the rent by twenty times. If you don't pay, they'll tell you to move out by tomorrow!"

"President Mei..."

The phone slipped from Mei Ping's hand to the ground, and he knelt there, his expression dull.

Suddenly, Mei Ping let out a wild howl: "God, what kind of person have I offended!"

He frantically pounded the ground with his hands while knocking his head against the floor with a "thud-thud" sound, causing blood to flow freely.

Unable to bear the massive blow, Mei Ping suffered a mental breakdown; he foamed at the mouth, rolled his eyes, and fainted.

Ye Chen drove the car with a calm expression.

The more Xiao Churan thought about it, the more wrong it felt, and she couldn't help but ask, "What exactly did you do to Mei Ping that he was so afraid of you?"

Ye Chen said nonchalantly, "I didn't do anything to him. I was waiting for you outside the whole time, how could I do anything to him? I guess he offended too many people, and others aren't letting him off."

Xiao Churan thought about it, and much of her suspicion dissipated; perhaps Mei Ping had offended some powerful person and put the blame on Ye Chen.

Thinking of this, Xiao Churan felt a surge of anger and said, "This Mei Ping is truly shameless; it serves him right to go bankrupt."

Ye Chen smiled without changing his expression.

It certainly served Mei Ping right; provoking him, bankruptcy was the best outcome, otherwise, he would have made him vanish from the face of the earth.

Xiao Churan sighed softly and said, "It seems I still need to find new partners and see if I can negotiate some business for the studio."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen prepared to give Wang Zongxue a heads-up to let the Emgrand Group give his wife more orders later.

When the two returned home, Xiao Churan was still talking to Ye Chen about her future development plans for the studio.

But as soon as they entered the house, Xiao Changkun walked up, rubbing his hands, and looked at them with an awkward expression, saying, "That... Churan, your mother wants you to go back to work at the Xiao Group tomorrow."

"What?" Xiao Churan was stunned.

Ye Chen also frowned and said, "Didn't we draw a line with the Xiao family?"

"Sigh!" Xiao Changkun looked embarrassed and said helplessly, "I don't know what kind of soul-stirring soup your mother was fed, but she is single-mindedly siding with the Xiao family, so..."

Before Xiao Changkun could finish, Xiao Churan said angrily to Ma Lan, "Mom, the Xiao family bullied my dad and even wanted to take away Ye Chen's villa; why should we go back?"
