Chapter 2201
Seeing that Ye Chen seemed to have developed an affection for his daughter, Liu Jiahui finally felt much more relaxed.
The fish had already bitten; the rest depended on when it would hook.
After the meal, Liu Jiahui said, "Mr. Ye, I have some things to do at the group this afternoon, so I won't accompany you. I'll let Manqiong take you around Hong Kong properly."
Ye Chen nodded and said casually, "Mr. Liu, please go ahead and busy yourself. Having Miss Manqiong accompany me is enough."
Liu Jiahui nodded with satisfaction and instructed his daughter, "Manqiong, you must host Mr. Ye well for me."
Liu Manqiong didn't mince words and asked directly, "When will you arrange the 50 million in donations you promised me?"
Liu Jiahui said casually, "As long as you are obedient, within three days, I will have the finance department transfer the money to your foundation's account."
Liu Manqiong nodded, "Mr. Ye is here as a witness; you must keep your word."
"That goes without saying!" Liu Jiahui said with a serious face, "In all these years, when have I ever gone back on my word?"
Hearing this, Ye Chen felt a sudden sense of disgust.
How many times Liu Jiahui had gone back on his word in his life, Ye Chen didn't know, but he knew that Liu Jiahui had broken his promise to his father after his father passed away.
However, Liu Manqiong didn't know this. Hearing Liu Jiahui say this, she felt relieved and said, "That's good!"
Ye Chen looked at Liu Jiahui, very much wanting to ask him if he still remembered Ye Changying, and if he still remembered the agreement between him and Ye Changying.
But thinking carefully, if he asked like that now, Liu Jiahui would certainly guess that he came to Hong Kong this time for Chen Zhaozhong, not to discuss cooperation with him.
Even, he might very likely think of his father, and combined with his surname Ye and his resemblance to his father, deduce his identity.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen temporarily suppressed this impulse.
He flew more than ten thousand kilometers to Hong Kong; he couldn't expose his identity so easily, or it wouldn't be fun.
Consequently, he looked at Liu Manqiong and smiled, "Miss Manqiong, since the meal is over, why don't we leave first?"
Liu Manqiong nodded, "Good, let's go."
Ye Chen stood up and said to Liu Jiahui and Fang Jiaxin, "Mr. Liu, Mrs. Liu, thank you for your generous hospitality. I'll go out for a stroll with Miss Manqiong."
Liu Jiahui said with a smile, "Good, good. Then Mr. Ye, have a good time with Manqiong, and we'll talk about business tomorrow."
Ye Chen and Liu Manqiong walked out of the restaurant side by side. Liu Manqiong said to Ye Chen, "Mr. Ye, please wait a moment; I'll go upstairs to get something."
Ye Chen asked her, "Miss Manqiong, do you need my help?"
"No need," Liu Manqiong said casually, "It's just some personal items. Please wait for me here for a moment, Mr. Ye; I'll be down immediately."
Ye Chen nodded, "Good."
Liu Manqiong took the elevator upstairs, and a moment later, she walked out of the elevator holding a paper box.
Ye Chen stepped forward proactively and said, "Miss Manqiong, let me help you carry it."
Liu Manqiong nodded slightly, "Thank you, Mr. Ye."
Ye Chen took the box, held it, and left the villa with Liu Manqiong.
Once in the courtyard, Liu Manqiong walked straight toward a standard Tesla Model 3.
This cheapest entry-level sedan looked out of place in the courtyard full of Rolls-Royces and Maybachs.
Ye Chen didn't expect Liu Manqiong to drive such an electric car worth over 200,000 RMB, and he couldn't help but feel a bit surprised.
Liu Manqiong also saw the surprise in Ye Chen's eyes and said, "Mr. Ye, my car is a bit simple; please don't mind."
"Not at all," Ye Chen waved his hand and smiled, "I'm not particular about cars. Let alone a four-wheeled electric car, even a two-wheeled one, I have no problem with."
