Chapter 503: It
Ye Chen didn't expect that when he said he was going to donate to the orphanage, Paul would also follow suit and donate 1 million.
He wanted to tell him it wasn't necessary, but Paul had already hung up the phone.
Seeing that the phone had been hung up, Ye Chen had no choice but to put the phone away helplessly, while feeling more and more that this kid Paul was indeed on the right track, and he would take him along if there was a chance in the future.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Chen said to Aunt Li, "Aunt Li, my friend will transfer the money to our orphanage's account soon. Tell our orphanage's finance department to keep an eye on the arrival information, but the amount is not 1 million."
Jiang Ming didn't wait for Ye Chen to finish speaking and laughed loudly, "Haha Ye Chen, you're admitting defeat. Don't tell me you're only letting your friend donate 10,000? Then you're really too shameful! Don't forget everyone is still recording."
Ye Chen sneered and said, "Can you not be so anxious? Wait until I finish speaking before you express your position?"
Jiang Ming waved his hand and said loudly, "You speak, let you speak, speak loudly, speak for everyone to hear!"
Ye Chen ignored him and looked at Aunt Li seriously, "Aunt Li, the amount is indeed not 1 million, but 2 million, because my friend heard that I was going to donate to the orphanage, so he also added 1 million."
Everyone was shocked!
What kind of friend is this? Hearing that his friend is donating, and it's 1 million, he also follows suit and donates 1 million?
Is this person sick, or is he just too rich and burning money!
Or maybe Ye Chen is bragging.
Jiang Ming mocked, "Ye Chen, I admire your ability to brag more and more. Mount Tai collapsing in front of you without changing your expression—that's you. You're really a person who does big things!"
Ye Chen smiled, "Don't rush to conclusions. Otherwise, when the money arrives in a while, how will you get off the stage?"
Jiang Ming said coldly, "Save it. This kind of bragging won't last long. If the money doesn't arrive later, where will you put your face?"
Just as he finished speaking, Aunt Li received a call.
Seeing that it was a call from the finance department, she hurriedly said, "It's the finance department of our orphanage calling me. Could it be that the money Ye Chen donated has arrived?"
"Cut!" Jiang Ming curled his lips, "It might arrive, but at most it will be 10,000 or 20,000, not more."
Aunt Li answered the phone and turned on the speaker directly, asking, "Hello, Accountant Chen, is there anything wrong with calling so late?"
Accountant Chen's voice came from the other end of the phone, and she said very excitedly, "Aunt Li, I just received a text message. Someone transferred 2 million in charitable donations to our orphanage's charity account!"
Aunt Li exclaimed, "It arrived so quickly?!"
Accountant Chen hurriedly asked, "Aunt Li, do you know about this 2 million? Who is so generous? Donated so much money to us?"
Aunt Li said excitedly, "It's Ye Chen! Ye Chen from our orphanage, do you remember?"
"Ye Chen?!" Accountant Chen exclaimed, "Did Ye Chen really donate it? My God, Ye Chen is really successful now!"
Aunt Li also said with great relief, "Ye Chen heard that our orphanage has so many new children recently and knew that we were having funding difficulties, so he specifically donated one million!"
"And his friend also donated one million for his sake, a total of 2 million!"
The other party said excitedly, "Oh, this time we can really breathe a sigh of relief. We can buy some good food for the children, buy some new clothes for the children when it gets cold, and then replace the playground facilities in our orphanage. Those playground facilities were from many years ago!"
Everyone present was dumbfounded.
Especially Jiang Ming, who was even more confused.
What's the situation? 2 million really arrived?
Isn't this stinking loser Ye Chen a live-in son-in-law who eats soft rice? Where did he get so much money?!
Others also realized that they had underestimated Ye Chen before. They really didn't expect that although Ye Chen was a live-in son-in-law, he had such great energy.
Not only could he donate 1 million casually, but his friend, hearing that he donated 1 million, was also willing to donate another 1 million even though he had no relationship with the orphanage. What kind of friend is this? So awesome?
At this time, Ye Chen stood up, looked at the shocked and flustered Jiang Ming, and said, "Jiang Ming, everyone's phones might still be recording. Now my 1 million has arrived. What about your 10 million? When will it arrive?"
Jiang Ming was completely confused now. Let alone letting him donate 10 million, he might not even be able to come up with 100,000 now.
And more importantly, he had a big hole waiting for him to fill. If he couldn't fill it, he might be torn to pieces.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ming knew very well that he couldn't win no matter what, and today he had already lost his face, and he couldn't get it back.
So he hardened his face and went all out, saying to Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, since you are so rich, why don't you take it out and let me manage your finances? I guarantee you can double it in a week!"
Ye Chen asked with a smile, "Why? Are you not donating the 10 million?"
Jiang Ming said awkwardly, "You're joking. Even if I'm doing well, I don't have that much money. Today, I have eyes but didn't recognize Mount Tai. Please forgive me and don't be like me."
Others mocked one after another, "Jiang Ming, you're too much. Ye Chen has already donated 1 million, and even Ye Chen's friend donated 1 million. You should fulfill your promise, right? Even if you don't have 10 million, even if you donate 1 million, it's reasonable!"
Jiang Ming's face was very ugly, but now that things had come to this, even if his face was beaten red, he didn't dare to act pretentious anymore.
After all, these people were recording videos. If he still acted pretentious at this time, and the video was spread, he wouldn't have the face to be a person in the future.
So he could only go all out, slapped himself a few times, and said guiltily, "I admit, it's my fault, I acted pretentious, I didn't have that much money but puffed myself up, sorry!"
When saying this, Jiang Ming felt very depressed.
He felt that Zhao Zhuoyue, who was just preparing to invest in his fund, and one or two other friends, seeing him exposed now, definitely wouldn't play with him anymore.
In this way, he really didn't know where to get money to buy a Phaeton for Ma Zhongliang.
Thinking of this, he had no face to stay here anymore, hurriedly stood up, and said in a panic, "Sorry everyone, I have something to do, I'm leaving first..."
After saying that, he got up and ran out.
Seeing his embarrassed appearance when he ran away, everyone felt a burst of disgust. He acted so smoothly just now, and now he ran away like a dog! He didn't donate a cent, which was really disgusting.
Seeing him run away, Zhao Hao sighed, "Ye Chen, shouldn't have let him run! Should have pressed him here and forced him to donate the money!"
Ye Chen smiled indifferently, "Then wouldn't I have become a villain? It's okay, let him go, evil people have their own evil people to grind."
Zhao Zhuoyue, who loved to take advantage, saw Jiang Ming run away, felt tight in his heart, fearing that he wouldn't be able to marry a wife, and hurriedly got up to chase after him.
As soon as he left, Jiang Ming's previous lackey, Zheng Xiang, said disdainfully, "I've seen through this Jiang Ming. He loves to act pretentious too much! Damn, he crashed someone else's Phaeton and was so worried that he knelt on the ground and cried like a dog, but when he got here, he actually had the face to say that Phaeton was his. It's really garbage. I must draw a line with this idiot in the future!"
Everyone was shocked and hurriedly asked, "Crashed someone else's Phaeton? What's going on?!"
