Chapter 1954

Although none of the three distinguished guests today dared to hope that they would receive a Rejuvenation Pill gifted by Ye Chen for attending the auction, for Ye Chen, since he had invited them over, how could he let them leave empty-handed?

Splitting one Rejuvenation Pill into three parts—half for his grandfather, and a quarter each for Old Mr. Lai and the old Queen—was, in his view, a relatively reasonable way to distribute it.

Among these three, only his grandfather, Ye Zhongquan, had not yet taken a Rejuvenation Pill.

Ye Zhongquan was not yet too old, and half a Rejuvenation Pill would be enough to bring him significant improvement.

Moreover, Ye Chen also held something back; if he gave his grandfather a whole one at once, and the old man's youthful ambitions were stirred up again, wanting to regain control of the Ye family, it would certainly become a trouble for him.

Giving him half at a time would let him taste the sweetness, make him crave the Rejuvenation Pill more in the future, and make him more cooperative with him within the Ye family.

After all, although he had actually taken over the Ye family, most of the Ye family descendants were incompetent, and many matters still required the old man to handle them personally.

As for Lai Qinghua and the old Queen, it was entirely out of personal sentiment; the two had helped promote the Rejuvenation Pill quite a bit, so it was only right to express his appreciation.

Fearing that a long night would bring many dreams, the old Queen did not hesitate and took the Rejuvenation Pill directly.

She had just woken up from a critical illness some time ago, and her body was relatively weak, so she was eager to use the Rejuvenation Pill to improve it.

After the pill entered her mouth, it indeed made her feel indescribably comfortable all over, and her sense of strength was much stronger, instantly regaining the state she was in four or five years ago.

Lai Qinghua had originally wanted to keep this portion of the Rejuvenation Pill, just in case it might be useful for an emergency in the future.

But seeing that the old Queen had already taken it, he was too embarrassed to keep the Rejuvenation Pill and take it away.

After all, Ye Chen's own uncle wanted to spend over 300 billion to take away a Rejuvenation Pill, and Ye Chen did not agree; if he took this portion of the Rejuvenation Pill away, it would indeed be inappropriate.

Therefore, he also placed this quarter of a Rejuvenation Pill into his mouth in front of Ye Chen.

Although taking the Rejuvenation Pill this time was not as shocking as taking a whole one last time, it still made him clearly feel that his body had become much younger than it was a second ago.

The two expressed their gratitude to Ye Chen, and after Ye Chen said a few polite words, he arranged for everyone to eat.

This meal was enjoyed by both host and guests.

After the meal, after Ye Chen sent the three back to the administrative building, he said to Ye Zhongquan: "Grandfather, I have something I would like to ask your advice on. Shall we go to your room and chat for a moment?"

"Alright!" Ye Zhongquan agreed readily, and after saying goodbye to the other two, he brought Ye Chen to the room where he was staying.

The grandfather and grandson sat opposite each other on the sofa, and Ye Chen asked him: "Grandfather, do you know the person numbered 99 who was kicked out at the auction today?"

Ye Zhongquan said: "I don't know him. Why?"

Ye Zhongquan had a deep impression of that person because that guy had offered 370 billion US dollars as soon as he opened his mouth, which had scared him quite a bit.

However, he also didn't know what kind of background that person had.

Ye Chen asked him at this time: "I asked others, and they said that person is my eldest uncle, An Chongqiu."

"An Chongqiu? It was actually him..." Ye Zhongquan widened his eyes, unable to recover from the shock for a long time.

Ye Chen asked: "You don't know him?"

Ye Zhongquan laughed dryly: "Your maternal grandfather's family was quite dissatisfied with our Ye family back then. When your mother married into our family, her maiden family didn't even send anyone. I hadn't met your uncles before, except for meeting your second uncle, An Kaifeng, at a summit in Sweden some years ago. He was on stage and I was off stage, so I only saw him from afar. Later, I thought about getting close to him and visiting him, but he wasn't willing to see me."

Ye Chen smiled and said: "It seems the An family really looks down on those surnamed Ye."

Ye Zhongquan mocked himself: "He looks down on me, but he said at the time that among those surnamed Ye, he only recognizes you."

Saying this, Ye Zhongquan added: "By the way, your eldest uncle came to the auction and wanted to take the Rejuvenation Pill away. I wonder who he intended to buy it for—your grandfather or your grandmother?"

"I'm not sure either." Ye Chen said: "I haven't had any contact with him yet, so I don't know who he wanted to buy the Rejuvenation Pill for."

Ye Zhongquan said: "Chen'er, I think you could have some contact with your grandfather's family; it might not be a bad thing."
