Please, come in...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt that by flattering Ye Chen a little, she could make him forget or overlook what she had just done.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, she thought too kindly of Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Bi Lina's words, Chen Zekai asked with great surprise, \"Little Bi, you are a classmate of Mr. Ye?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, yes, yes!\" Bi Lina hurriedly said, \"Mr. Ye was my class monitor in university, and we were very close!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Zekai immediately said, \"Good, good, good! That’s wonderful! Report to the president's office tomorrow; from now on, you will be the Personnel Manager of Buckingham Palace!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From a team leader to a Personnel Manager, one had to jump at least three levels at Buckingham Palace, and the compensation would more than tenfold!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, the Personnel Manager held the power of life and death over most employees; she would definitely be one of the top executives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Bi Lina was so excited she almost fainted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Ye Chen asked coldly with a gloomy expression, \"Mr. Chen, do you know what kind of relationship I have with Bi Lina?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Zekai thought Ye Chen was dissatisfied with his arrangement and immediately said in fear and trepidation, \"If you are not satisfied, Mr. Ye, then let Little Bi be promoted directly to Vice President of the hotel!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bi Lina was so excited she almost cried!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was a Vice President? It was being under one person but above ten thousand!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just then, Ye Chen suddenly said sternly, \"Because I didn't have a membership card, I called Bi Lina for help, but she ended up insulting me in every possible way for no reason, and even tried to have the security guards beat me several times. You actually want to promote her to Vice President? What do you mean by this? Are you intentionally trying to go against me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Chen Zekai felt a chill in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it! I tried to kiss his ass and ended up kicking his leg!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, the look he gave Bi Lina was filled with fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then slapped Bi Lina hard across the face and cursed, \"You dared to offend Mr. Ye? Have you grown the guts of a bear or a leopard? Do you not want to live anymore?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bi Lina was so scared her whole body went limp. She knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly, crying out, \"Mr. Chen, I was wrong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Zekai suddenly kicked Bi Lina hard, sending her flying several meters away, and cursed, \"You blind dog! Today I will let you know the price of provoking Mr. Ye!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, he shouted to the security guards beside him, \"Beat her hard! Beat her half to death, then ruin that face she got from plastic surgery, and tell all of Jin Ling that any company that dares to hire her in the future is going against me, Chen Zekai!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bi Lina was scared out of her wits and hurriedly said, \"Mr. Chen, I was wrong, please spare me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Zekai was furious and shouted, \"You know you're wrong now? What the hell were you doing earlier? Is Young Master Ye someone you can offend? Damn it, if it weren't for Young Master Ye's sake, I'd take your life!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bi Lina broke down in tears, crawling on her knees all the way to Ye Chen, kowtowing repeatedly: \"Class Monitor Ye, I was wrong, I'm sorry! Please, for the sake of us being classmates...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen asked her indifferently, \"Bi Lina, we were classmates, so why did you insult me and my wife just now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bi Lina sobbed, \"Class Monitor, I was confused for a moment, it's all my fault for having a foul mouth, please forgive me...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen said, \"If people don't offend me, I won't offend them, but if people offend me, I will never spare them!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, he snorted coldly and added, \"Drink the bitter wine you brewed yourself!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Zekai cursed, \"You bitch, if you dare to nag Young Master Ye again, I'll have someone tear that filthy mouth of yours apart!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bi Lina dared not beg for mercy anymore and knelt on the ground, crying bitterly by herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen felt no sympathy for her at all, ignoring her completely, and said expressionlessly to Chen Zekai, \"I want to talk to you about the Sky Garden. Let's go to your office.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Zekai nodded hurriedly and said respectfully, \"Please follow me, Mr. Ye!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, he pointed to the security guards beside him and shouted, \"Beat her hard!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Mr. Chen!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could the security guards dare to disobey him? They nodded immediately and rushed up to pin Bi Lina down and beat her violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bi Lina kept wailing, but Ye Chen ignored it completely and entered Buckingham Palace under the fawning guidance of Chen Zekai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once in Chen Zekai's office, Ye Chen got straight to the point: \"In a few days, it will be my wedding anniversary with my wife. I want to book the entire Sky Garden. Can you do it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Zekai said without hesitation, \"Young Master, to ensure fairness to all high-end members, the Sky Garden has always refused private bookings. Even if the city's top leaders come, we don't provide private booking services. However, as long as you need it, the Sky Garden can even be open exclusively for you forever from now on!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen said indifferently, \"That won't be necessary. Just keep it free on the anniversary. Also, I need you to cooperate with me to prepare a surprise for my wife.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Zekai immediately said, \"Don't worry, Young Master. I and all the staff at Buckingham Palace will follow your instructions!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Ye Chen finished his business at Buckingham Palace, he took the bus home. Almost all the passengers on the bus were scrolling through the most popular short video apps of the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And to his surprise, everyone was watching the same video!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the video of him spending 13 million in cash at Cui Ge Xuan!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The video started with Tang Sihai's Rolls-Royce motorcade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A long line of top-tier Rolls-Royces, over a dozen black-clad security guards carrying black suitcases, 13 million in cash thrown on the ground, and the sales manager who looked down on people being humiliated—the whole process had been posted online.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the video failed to capture Ye Chen's face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This video quickly went viral in Jin Ling, and countless people were speculating who this super tycoon was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many young girls even started dreaming of Cinderella and the Prince, longing for the day they could meet this low-key tycoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen repeatedly confirmed that he was indeed hard to identify in the video, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and return home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the home was filled with joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Churan had obtained the contract from the Emgrand Group and was about to become the director of the Xiao Group. Her parents were naturally moved to tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After being looked down upon in the Xiao family for so many years, they could finally hold their heads high!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing their daughter-in-law so happy, the parents-in-law were not as annoyed with Ye Chen as before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mother-in-law said excitedly, \"Oh my, I'm so happy today. My daughter is truly no ordinary person!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, she looked at Ye Chen and smiled rarely, \"Ye Chen, you can be considered to have inspired Churan in this matter. I won't make you cook today; let's find a restaurant and have a feast!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Churan smiled, \"Then let's go to the Kempinski for Western food!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's too expensive!\" the mother-in-law blurted out, \"Isn't that over a thousand per person?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Churan smiled and said, \"Mom, the director's salary is very high, an annual salary of one million.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh my!\" the mother-in-law clapped happily and laughed, \"That's great, that's great! My Churan is finally successful!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, she added, \"But you must give at least 70% of your future salary to Mom. You young people don't understand the importance of financial management. Give the money to Mom; Mom will keep it for you. It's definitely more reliable than you saving it yourself!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Churan nodded immediately and smiled, \"Okay Mom, I'll give it to you every month. But we have an agreement: you can't always scold Ye Chen in the future. After all, he is your son-in-law!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mother-in-law immediately beamed, \"Good! For your sake, Mom will try to scold him less in the future!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1467,"2026-06-17T16:51:23.531Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","d6986651777340933793c94f6e13c07289e233fdb6ff8ad6f1637181634ac571","the-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-18","the-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-16",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
