Chapter 495: A Good Idea to Kill Two Birds with One Stone

Jiang Ming looked at Ye Chen angrily and deliberately said: "Do you think I'm afraid of you? If I hadn't rear-ended, I would definitely have won you!"

Li Xiaofen pouted and said: "You blow it! Just now Brother Ye Chen threw you behind his head with one foot on the accelerator. I think if you hadn't rear-ended, you would have lost for sure."

"Joke!" Jiang Ming deliberately found an excuse: "The reason Ye Chen was able to overtake me at the start was because he forgot to adjust the car to sports mode."

As he spoke, he hurriedly changed the subject: "Oh, it's meaningless for me to talk about this with a woman who doesn't understand cars. Let's hurry in, I've already booked a place."

Ye Chen didn't care about him anymore, and walked into the Hyatt Hotel with everyone.

Hyatt Hotel is a comprehensive hotel integrating catering, entertainment, and leisure, but the location is slightly remote. Compared with Bai Jinhangong and Brilliant Clubhouse, it is still far behind.

Jiang Ming led the crowd into the Hyatt Hotel first. A waiter greeted him and looked at Jiang Ming politely and asked: "Hello sir, do you have a reservation?"

Although Jiang Ming was very bitter in his heart, he pretended to be arrogant and said: "My surname is Jiang, and I booked a table in the lobby, number 03."

After speaking, Jiang Ming said to everyone: "Sorry everyone, we booked a bit late, they only have empty seats in the lobby today."

Everyone expressed their understanding. After all, for most people, it was their first time coming to a five-star hotel for dinner, and they were already very satisfied even in the lobby.

After the waiter confirmed it was correct, he smiled and said: "Okay Mr. Jiang, the seat you booked is ready, please follow me."

The waiter took the crowd into the catering department. Jiang Ming spoke at this time and couldn't help but say to Ye Chen: "Ye Chen, you must have never been to such a high-end place, right? This time you are lucky to follow me in to see it. Otherwise, with your loser look, you might never have the chance to enjoy it in your life."

Hearing this, Ye Chen couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

The top Bai Jinhangong Hotel in Jin Ling is his own, and the change in his bank card can buy the entire Hyatt Hotel, so for people like Jiang Ming, he was too lazy to refute a word.

So, Ye Chen smiled slightly and was too lazy to pay attention to a loser like Jiang Ming.

Seeing Ye Chen's indifferent attitude, Jiang Ming was even more furious.

This Ye Chen had never put him in his eyes since he was a child! And he still didn't put him in his eyes now!

He was just a live-in son-in-law, and he didn't know where he got the confidence to look down on himself so much!

It seems that today he must find a way to make him lose face!

At this time, Jiang Ming already had a good idea to kill two birds with one stone.

He wanted to try every possible way to make Ye Chen lose face, and at the same time, he also wanted to make his group of buddies worship him. By then, he would play a hand of empty-handed white wolf, trying to use their wife's money to help him solve the trouble of rear-ending Ma Zhongliang's Phaeton!

The more Jiang Ming thought about it, the more he felt that this was a good idea

Having made up his mind, Jiang Ming felt much more at ease, and then he walked at the very front with an air of great importance.

Upon arriving at the designated table, Jiang Ming invited Auntie Li to sit in the seat of honor.

After Auntie Li sat down, Jiang Ming took the seat to her left, while Zheng Xiang and the others, who had been fawning over and groveling to Jiang Ming earlier, sat down in order, occasionally offering a few words of flattery.

At Auntie Li's request, Ye Chen and Xiao Churan sat to her right, while the others also took their seats at the table in turn.

Once seated, Auntie Li looked at these children and said with great gratification: "Children, thank you for still keeping me in your hearts and coming to see me!"

Everyone hurriedly said: "Auntie Li, what are you saying? This is what we should do."

Auntie Li asked: "How have you all been doing these past few years?"

Everyone laughed and said: "Thank you for your concern, Auntie Li, we are all doing quite well."

Having left the orphanage for many years, everyone had their own different life trajectories, but generally speaking, most were ordinary people; no matter how great their ideals and ambitions were in the past, after entering society, they were defeated by reality and ultimately returned to the ordinary in their mundane lives.

Everyone had changed a great deal, and when many spoke of their lives, although they feigned ease, everyone else remained silent after hearing them; it was obvious that many people's lives were not very satisfactory.

They had no background and no support, and in this society, they could only rely on themselves to struggle bit by bit; being able to become an ordinary person was already considered quite good, and wanting to become someone superior was no different from a pipe dream.

At this moment, someone asked Jiang Ming: "Jiang Ming, I heard that you are now a director at a listed group in Jin Ling?"

Jiang Ming smiled proudly and said: "Yes, I've been in this director position for half a year now!"

As soon as these words were spoken, several people at the table exclaimed: "My god, a director position at a listed group must pay an annual salary of hundreds of thousands, right? Jiang Ming, you are too amazing; no wonder you can afford to drive a Mercedes!"

Jiang Ming said proudly: "It's just so-so. To put it bluntly, my annual salary of several hundred thousand is just enough to get by!"

Having said this, he feigned a sigh and said: "However, the salary doesn't count for much; it's only enough for food and clothing. What I really rely on are the commissions and bonuses."

As he spoke, Jiang Ming added: "I won't hide it from everyone, I am currently in charge of a major project for the company. Once that project is settled, I can get a bonus of at least over a million!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was even more astonished and hurriedly said: "Jiang Ming, no, Director Jiang, what kind of company is that? The benefits are so good that you can even get a bonus of over a million?!"

Jiang Ming said proudly: "It would shock you to hear it; it's the famous Wang Group in Jin Ling. Companies like the Xinhe Group are actually subsidiaries of the Wang Group. The profit of a single project is calculated in the tens of millions; what I get is considered small!"

Ye Chen frowned. The Wang Group, isn't that the industry of Wang Zhenggang's family?

Could it be that Jiang Ming is working for the Wang family?

This is a bit funny.

At this time, seeing that Ye Chen had been silent, Jiang Ming deliberately said: "Ye Chen, what kind of work are you doing now? You wouldn't happen to be relying on your wife to support you and living off a woman after becoming a live-in son-in-law, would you?"

As soon as this was said, his few lackeys couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Even with Ye Chen's great tolerance, he was annoyed by Jiang Ming's repeated provocations and said indifferently: "Yes, I wash clothes, cook, and do housework at home every day. Life is very comfortable; I don't have any free time to look for a job."

What Ye Chen said was the truth, but to Jiang Ming's ears, it sounded like he had heard a huge joke.

He laughed and mocked: "I say Ye Chen, we all know each other's roots, do you have to be so desperate to save face here? I don't believe that being a live-in son-in-law can be that comfortable!"

As he spoke, he deliberately added: "By the way, we grew up together after all. I won't hide it from you, I happen to be looking for an assistant recently. Why don't you come over and help me with Zheng Xiang?"
