Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group Chapter 1470 - 1444: A Dark and Windy Night

Ye Chen parked the car by the roadside and then answered the phone.

"Lawyer Zhang, is there something you need?"

On the other end of the call, Lawyer Zhang’s voice came through.

"Mr. Ye, sorry to disturb you. It’s like this: that woman’s family has a child about to take their college entrance exams this year."

"If the woman is sentenced, it will definitely affect the child’s future."

Ye Chen could hear the difficulty in Lawyer Zhang’s voice.

"Mr. Ye, would you consider, consider..."

Of course, he knew that Lawyer Zhang felt sorry for the child and wanted to persuade him to change his mind.

If they insisted on prosecuting the woman, she would be punished.

But the child would be implicated, just because of having such a mother.

This is obviously unfair to the child.

Ye Chen thought for a moment and said, "Alright, I won’t press charges against the woman. Just help me scare her a bit, so she won’t dare to do such things again."

"Mr. Ye, truly kind-hearted, rest assured, I will do as you say."

After hanging up, Lawyer Zhang also let out a long sigh of relief.

He was also afraid Ye Chen wouldn’t agree, as the woman was indeed detestable.

But when he thought of the child about to take the exams, Lawyer Zhang couldn’t bear it.

"Ma’am, I just got off the phone with Mr. Ye. He said he reserves the right to bring charges against you and hopes you will take care of yourself."

Lawyer Zhang wore a serious expression.

"I promise I won’t dare again, thank you on my behalf to Mr. Ye."

The daughter-in-law was in tears at these words, not expecting Ye Chen to actually not pursue the matter further.

"Lawyer Sir, I’ll return the money to Mr. Ye right away."

The daughter-in-law suddenly thought of this and said.

At this moment, Ye Chen’s phone received a message, and glancing at it, he saw the million had been transferred back.

Ye Chen put the phone away, got on the e-bike, and rode forward.

Just then, a system prompt sounded in his mind.

"Congratulations, host, on receiving a Worldwide Delivery order. Do you accept?"

"Accept."

Ye Chen thought that now he didn’t have anything else to do.

Following the system’s instructions, Ye Chen went to a nearby shop and bought a bottle of liquor.

It seemed this customer must love drinking very much.

They say drinking harms the body, but Ye Chen thought as long as the customer was satisfied, it was fine.

After buying the liquor, Ye Chen got on the e-bike and found an unpeopled place.

The wormhole opened, and he rode into it.

Emerging again, he was in another world.

What surprised Ye Chen was that it was nighttime.

Moreover, a fierce wind was blowing around him, making his hairs stand on end.

When Ye Chen looked around, he realized he was standing on a mountain.

After further confirmation, he was indeed on a mountain.

He did not understand why the system wanted him to come to a mountain at night to deliver a package.

The darkness around was terrifying, coupled with the wind, it felt like a horror movie setting.

"System, where is this,?"

Ye Chen asked in his mind.

But for a long time, no response came from the system.

Forget it, as they say, accept the situation when it comes.

If there’s danger, Ye Chen believed he could handle it.

But there was always a mystery in his heart: who was the customer and where were they now.

As Ye Chen was wondering, a faint cough sounded behind him.

Ye Chen turned abruptly but saw no one, making his scalp tingle.

Listening carefully again, the sound came from the woods behind him.

Ye Chen hurriedly jogged towards it.

He could hardly wait to meet the person.

When Ye Chen came through the woods, he saw a figure.

The figure was very upright, giving a celestial air feeling.

Ye Chen was momentarily stunned looking at the person in front of him.

The other person had the same expression seeing Ye Chen.

"Who are you?"

The man looked at Ye Chen and asked.

"Hello, I am Ye Chen, a Ten Thousand Realms delivery man, here to deliver your order."

Ye Chen said with a smile.

"What is a delivery?"

The man clearly found the word perplexing.

"This is what you ordered. May I know how to address you?"

Ye Chen handed the bottle of strong liquor to the man and asked.

"You can call me Taibai."

The man said with a smile.

"Taibai, Li Taibai?" Ye Chen thought to himself.

The person in front of him was the Poetic Immortal Li Bai.

He had learned many of his poems and greatly admired this great poet.

Ye Chen admired his talent and lamented his unfulfilled potential.

He did not expect to meet this person today, what an immense honor it was.

Li Bai saw the liquor Ye Chen handed over and his face lit up with joy.

In Ye Chen’s impression, Li Bai was someone who loved drinking and poetry.

However, Ye Chen found it strange that Li Bai would go to the mountain in the middle of the night and couldn’t help voicing his question.

"Brother Taibai, why did you come here late at night?"

"Brother Ye, I’ve just arrived at Huashan."

Li Bai stroked his beard and said.

Ye Chen thought Li Bai’s answer was off-topic.

"Brother Taibai, I meant it’s a time to be sleeping, why are you here? Didn’t you feel the cold wind?"

Ye Chen asked more directly.

"Look at how beautiful the moonlight is, that’s why. But I didn’t expect it to be so cold here."

Li Bai explained.

He took the liquor in his hand, opened the cap, and gulped it down.

Ye Chen was dumbfounded.

That liquor had a very high alcohol content, and it was too late to warn him now.

By then, half a bottle was gone down Li Bai’s throat.

"Great wine, great wine..."

Li Bai kept praising.

Ye Chen was stunned, knowing this strong liquor taken like this could lead to collapse.

Though Li Bai hadn’t collapsed, his face was flushed red.

His footsteps were starting to stagger.

It was clear he was drunk.

Li Bai had been complaining about the cold earlier, his nose running due to the chill.

Ye Chen’s liquor was like a timely rescue.

After drinking, Li Bai felt much warmer.

Seeing Li Bai starting to stagger, Ye Chen was also anxious.

Under their feet, there were cliffs and precipices; a slight misstep could mean falling to pieces.

If the customer fell, Ye Chen would have to save him, and that would be too troublesome.

"Brother Taibai, watch your step."

Ye Chen hurriedly reminded.

"Brother Ye, don’t worry, don’t worry."

Li Bai was saying not to worry, but Ye Chen’s heart was pounding.

He was genuinely worried that Li Bai might accidentally fall.

Ye Chen hurriedly pushed the drunken Li Bai to a spot farther from the cliff edge.

To prevent him from coming back, Ye Chen had no choice but to stand closer to the cliff edge himself.

Ye Chen watched Li Bai keep drinking, feeling an inexplicable melancholy.
