Chapter 947: Ye Changmin

~8 min read 1,442 words

Ye Chen stepped into the catering department of Bai Jinhangong.

The huge catering department was indeed empty today.

Many waiters had also been withdrawn. According to Chen Zekai, it was because he was afraid that too many waiters would make Ye Changmin feel annoyed.

Ye Chen passed through the outer restaurant of the catering department and went straight to the Sky Garden located in the center. At this time, the eighty-eight banquet tables in the Sky Garden banquet hall had been completely removed, leaving only a meticulously crafted Western-style dining table in the very center.

Ye Chen didn't need to think to know that the removal of the eighty-eight banquet tables and chairs must have been ordered by his aunt.

Therefore, he felt somewhat unhappy in his heart.

Although Ye Chen hadn't met this aunt yet, her style, which was almost like that of ancient imperial relatives, made Ye Chen feel very disgusted.

Even though Ye Chen now had nearly 60 billion RMB in cash in his bank card, he still didn't have the slightest intention of putting on airs.

Let alone making a big fuss and wasting manpower and money just to eat a meal, even if he were to eat a bowl of beef noodles for ten yuan at a roadside noodle shop, he wouldn't feel there was anything inappropriate about it.

Moreover, clearing the entire Bai Jinhangong and emptying the entire Sky Garden just to eat a meal really couldn't make Ye Chen feel any sense of superiority.

On the contrary, this would only make him very repulsive and resistant.

Accompanied by Chen Zekai, Ye Chen came to this only dining table.

The dining table was about two meters long and one meter wide, with two chairs placed at both ends.

Chen Zekai personally pulled out one of the chairs for Ye Chen and said: "Young Master, I have to trouble you to wait here for a moment."

Ye Chen nodded lightly and said: "Alright, you go get busy, I'll play with my phone and wait for her."

Chen Zekai hurriedly asked: "Young Master, would you like to drink something first? I'll have someone prepare it for you."

Ye Chen said: "Just bring me a glass of plain water."

"Okay, Young Master."

Ye Chen sat alone at the dining table, fiddling with his phone in boredom, and happened to receive a message from Ito Nanako: "What is Ye Chen-kun doing?"

Seeing her message, Ye Chen smiled knowingly and replied: "Preparing to eat outside, how about you?"

Ito Nanako replied to him: "I just came back from the hospital, I was keeping Father company at the hospital."

Afterwards, Ito Nanako sent another message: "Ye Chen-kun, does your wife like the ring you gave her? Is the size of the ring band suitable?"

Ye Chen replied: "She likes it, thank you for helping me try on the ring, the size of the ring band is also very suitable."

Ito Nanako sent a smiling emoji and added: "That couldn't be better! In four days, it will be the Chinese Lunar New Year. Nanako wishes Ye Chen-kun a Happy New Year in advance!"

Ye Chen had a smile on his face and typed with his fingertips to reply: "Thank you! How is Mr. Ito's recovery?"

Ito Nanako replied: "The doctor said he can be discharged after resting for a few more days."

"That's good." Just as Ye Chen sent these three words, a woman dressed in gorgeous and luxurious clothing walked into the entrance of the Sky Garden.

This woman looked to be about forty years old, wearing a limited-edition custom-made outfit from Chanel, with yellow-dyed medium-short hair. Her face couldn't be considered beautiful, and besides looking a bit cold, her appearance also gave people a very mean feeling.

This woman was Ye Chen's aunt, Ye Changmin.

Ye Changmin walked very fast, striding in and heading straight for the dining table where Ye Chen was.

And Chen Zekai followed her step by step, his attitude very respectful.

When she was still a few meters away from Ye Chen, Ye Changmin said with a smile: "Oh my, Chen'er, it's been so many years, you've already grown into a handsome young man!"

Looking at Ye Changmin, Ye Chen also found some childhood memories from her face.

So, he gave a self-deprecating smile and said: "I'll be 27 soon, I'm no longer a young man."

Ye Changmin appeared very intimate and said with a smile: "Oh my, you look so much like your father! You're just like a mold cast from him!"

Ye Chen nodded and smiled: "Compared to back then, Auntie doesn't seem to have changed much."

Ye Changmin laughed and said: "In the blink of an eye, ten or twenty years have passed. I'm already nearly fifty, how could I still be the same as before."

At this time, Chen Zekai had already carefully pulled out Ye Changmin's chair first.

When Ye Changmin sat down, she glanced at Ye Chen's side and saw that Ye Chen had been sitting in the chair the whole time and hadn't stood up before she sat down, so she couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied.

According to the rules, when a junior at the dining table is with an elder, they should stand up and wait respectfully when the elder arrives.

If the elder speaks, the junior must bend over and lower their head to listen carefully;

If the elder sits down, the junior must wait until the elder sits down and indicates that they can sit before they can sit down.

But Ye Chen was good; his butt seemed to have grown on the chair the whole time. Let alone standing up, he was too lazy to even move.

Ye Changmin felt a little angry all of a sudden.

She actually didn't have any good feelings for Ye Chen to begin with.

If Ye Chen had remained missing and never appeared again, it would naturally be best for her.

But she didn't expect that this kid had been missing for so many years, only to suddenly pop out again to divide the Ye family's assets.

What made her even more unable to accept was that the Old Master not only gave him the Dihao Group and 10 billion in cash, but even wanted him to return to the Ye family.

She looked at Ye Chen, who was dressed ordinarily, had an easygoing temperament, and didn't understand etiquette, and thought to herself: "What qualifications does such a person have to return to the Ye family? Any direct member of the Ye family has received aristocratic education since childhood and then gone abroad for further studies. Compared to Ye Chen, who only spent a year in his senior year in Jin Ling, it's simply heaven and earth. Letting such a semi-illiterate return to the Ye family would definitely disgrace the Ye family!"

However, although Ye Changmin didn't like Ye Chen at all, she didn't dare to disobey the Old Master's instructions.

After all, after she completely separated from her husband, the wishful thinking she had was to return to the Ye family and get a share of the Ye family's huge fortune in the future.

But she was a married woman after all, and wanting to return to her maiden family to divide the family property was inherently rejected by her brothers Ye Changkong and Ye Changyun.

Under these circumstances, if Ye Changmin still wanted to get a portion of the assets, she must have the full support of the Old Master.

Therefore, she had always followed the Old Master's lead in the Ye family.

She, who was usually arrogant, looked down on everyone, and dared to talk back to anyone, was the only one who didn't dare to disobey the Old Master's wishes.

Moreover, as long as it was something the Old Master entrusted to her, she had always gone all out to make the Old Master happy.

Therefore, she also warned herself in her heart: "This time, I must handle the matter the Old Master arranged for me beautifully! Not to mention persuading Ye Chen to return to the Ye family, at least I must make Ye Chen agree to return to the Ye family to accompany the Old Master for the Lunar New Year this year!"

Thinking of this, she suppressed the dissatisfaction with Ye Chen in her heart and said with a smile: "Chen'er, you've really suffered in Jin Ling all these years. The family hasn't seen you for so many years, and everyone misses you very much. Have you thought about when you'll come home to take a look?" ===== CHAPTER 948 =====
