Chapter 498 - 498 Square
498 Square
“It’s the same, it’s the same. I won’t even know how to face them when I go. I’m afraid the news of the commotion at the main family yesterday has already spread. Many people probably know about it now.”
“It’s on the trending searches. Our Little Brother is already famous. It’s especially lively online.”
“Dad and Mom are going to be very busy this time. If we wait any longer, their phones will probably explode.”
Ye Hongliang picked up some pickled vegetables and fish slices with his chopsticks and smiled.
“It’s fine. I won’t contact those bosses who don’t have morals. Over the years, I’ve traveled extensively and made good partners. I’m happy if they come and look for me, but there’s nothing else to say. Don’t worry, young brat. I’m still a little discerning. I can still tell if they’re humans or dogs.”
“You were cheated out of hundreds of thousands last time by a brat. Hmph.”
His mother, Sun Xiaoqin, was unhappy. She pulled a long face and scolded Ye Hongliang without caring if she was in front of the children. This made Ye Hongliang feel quite awkward and he defended himself.
“What do you mean by being cheated? The reason behind this is very complicated. He wanted to deliver the goods at the beginning, but didn’t the water in the south rise at that time? The goods were all ruined, and according to the contract, he had to pay hundreds of thousands of yuan. He ran away without paying. How can this be called a cheat? At that time, the project was still in the early stages, so I didn’t plan to ask him to pay. I asked him to prepare the goods again. Didn’t he make up for it later? It’s still fine now. He even sent us a box of Southern cured meat last time. Do you remember?”
“Hmph, that, that’s still a cheat.” His mother, Sun Xiaoqin, snorted arrogantly and started to be unreasonable. Seeing this, Ye Hongliang hurriedly picked up a few of his mother’s favorite dishes with a careful expression. The sisters and Ye Xuan covered their mouths and snickered. The entire living room was filled with joy.
After a while, the meal quickly arrived at the end amidst the cheerful atmosphere. There were not many delicious dishes left on the table. Everyone leaned back in their chairs in satisfaction and breathed comfortably.
After a while, seeing that the sky outside the window was gradually darkening, Ye Xuan gently urged them.
“Since you’re all rested, let’s set off. The weather is good now. It’s cool outside.”
“Yes, let’s go out and play.”
His mother was obviously very happy. She got up first and returned to her room to prepare.
His sisters also got up and returned to their rooms to touch up their makeup and change their clothes. They were all happy.
His father, Ye Hongliang, didn’t have much to prepare. He slurped down a mouthful of hot tea and regained his composure. He looked at Ye Xuan and spoke.
“Son, you must be tired from managing the large Dinglong Corporation. However, I’m indeed impressed that you can manage such a large corporation.”
Ye Xuan rolled his eyes at his father and spoke.
“You look down on me so much. You’re even looking at me in a different light. I’m not that tired, right? Look, I usually play everywhere. I just have to settle some big matters. Someone else will handle the rest.”
“So you have a trusted aide. That’s good, that’s good.”
Ye Hongliang suddenly understood and patted Ye Xuan’s shoulder with a smile. However, there seemed to be a hint of regret and envy in the depths of his smile.
Ye Xuan could see that kind of emotion and knew that Ye Hongliang had seen too many different people in his many years of business. He could no longer trust any outsider or even the main family who was related to him by blood.
Therefore, he had to deal with everything in the company himself. It was very tiring. His heart was also very tired.
“It’s fine, Dad. In the future, if you want, your company can merge with the Dinglong Corporation. You can be a hands-off manager. Just leave it to me.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Hongliang immediately smiled.
“You young brat, you’re not even nine years old and you already want to inherit the family business. Your father is still strong and can still work for a few years. So many small businesses rely on us. It’s good if we merge, but it will also bring them trouble. Let’s talk about it later.”
Ye Xuan looked at his father, Ye Hongliang, meaningfully. It was definitely not a coincidence or luck that his company could reach where it was today after so many difficulties.
At this moment, his sisters and mother, Sun Xiaoqin, walked out. They had already changed into loose clothes and were wearing flowery sandals. They looked fresh and beautiful, giving off the feeling of midsummer.
“Then let’s go. Your mother is going to be bored out of her mind. She’s always making a fuss and going shopping.”
Ye Hongliang stood up and stretched. Then, he took the lead and opened the door to walk out. His mother glared at him bitterly and didn’t say anything. She held her two daughters’ hands and followed them out. The other sisters picked Ye Xuan up and followed closely behind. The group took the elevator to the lobby, making the attendants and front desk staff hurriedly bow respectfully.
“h.e.l.lo, Chairman Ye! I wish you a safe journey!”
Ye Xuan nodded and smiled back at them. Then, his gaze landed on a Rolls-Royce Phantom Extended edition facing the entrance of the hotel.
Zheng Jianghao was already waiting outside the car. When he saw Ye Xuan arrive, he hurriedly opened the car door and took out the black umbrella with the Rolls-Royce logo. He came to Ye Xuan and spoke respectfully.
“h.e.l.lo, Chairman Ye. Everything is ready.”
When Ye Xuan heard this, he looked up and scanned his surroundings. Soon, he found a few Rolls-Royces hiding in the dark. Furthermore, there were bodyguards who were protecting them in secret.
However, generally speaking, there was nothing much to do. They were just going to the square to play. However, it was better to be safe than sorry. This was also Zheng Jianghao’s professional habit.
Although Ye Xuan was speechless, he didn’t say anything. He nodded and spoke.
“Okay, get in the car.”
His sisters, father, and mother were slightly surprised to see the Rolls-Royce Phantom Extended edition, but they quickly recovered. They only felt a little apprehensive of the strong man in front of them who was filled with a fierce aura. However, when they saw his respectful att.i.tude, they were relieved.
After all, Zheng Jianghao’s profession was special, so his entire body was filled with an aura that made others uncomfortable. This was only a side effect. If he released all of it, it would be enough to make an adult tremble in fear.
After everyone sat down, Zheng Jianghao released the handbrake and slowly drove the Rolls-Royce Phantom Extended edition out. He turned from the side road of the hotel to the main road and headed straight for the People’s Square.
Seeing this, the few Rolls-Royces parked in the dark quietly followed after a while. They were divided into three paths and occupied one side each. The order was chaotic, as if they were pa.s.sersby. They were so professional that it was like the plot in a movie.
Meanwhile.
The People’s Square was extremely lively. It was crowded with people. The dim yellow lanterns hung in the sky, illuminating the cheerful atmosphere of the people. Accompanied by the cool night breeze of midsummer, the ambiguous atmosphere was drowned in the noise, pulling the atmosphere of the entire square to a breathtaking height.
