Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group Chapter 1519 - 1493: The Angry Bootlicker

The best friend indeed hit the nail on the head about her thoughts, but what good does that do?

"Alright, Yingying, don’t think about these unhappy things anymore."

Liu Tingting comforted her.

She also didn’t want to see her best friend so unhappy.

On the road below the campus.

Ye Chen followed behind Lin Shiyin; he didn’t know why this girl was helping him.

And what matter she wanted to talk to him about.

Ye Chen hadn’t said a word all the way, after all, he didn’t know what her purpose was. He chose to watch and wait.

Lin Shiyin was silent too, pondering how to bring up the matter of joining the Calligraphy Association with Ye Chen.

If it were any other person, she would have just spoken directly.

Of course, no one has ever refused her invitation.

But the Ye Chen in front of her had earned such admiration from Elder Sun and Professor Zhang, and she’d witnessed Ye Chen’s talent.

She knew that this man was not ordinary at all; if she spoke directly, he might reject her.

If rejected once, it would certainly be impossible to mention it again next time.

Though no words were spoken, Ye Chen felt a very unfriendly gaze watching him from behind.

No need to guess; he knew that person was none other than Lin Shiyin’s admirer Wu Tong.

If looks could kill, Ye Chen would have been dead by now.

The three continued walking forward; Ye Chen was very curious about where Lin Shiyin really wanted to take him.

Although he was puzzled, he didn’t ask.

He knew that if he continued walking, he would reach the classroom.

Ye Chen was also guessing why Lin Shiyin was taking him to the classroom.

Soon, the three arrived at a classroom.

Ye Chen looked around and realized this wasn’t the type of classroom for attending class; it was a calligraphy classroom.

Hanging on the walls were students’ calligraphy works.

Of course, the Four Treasures of the Study—brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone—were present as well.

"Miss Lin, why did you bring me here?"

Ye Chen looked at Lin Shiyin and asked.

"Mr. Ye, the thing I wanted to tell you is that I want to invite you to join the Calligraphy Association."

Lin Shiyin laid out the purpose of her visit.

Ye Chen hadn’t expected Lin Shiyin would want him to join the Calligraphy Association.

"Miss Lin, are you also part of the Calligraphy Association?"

Ye Chen asked, puzzled, looking at Lin Shiyin.

"I am the vice president of the Calligraphy Association."

Lin Shiyin said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen looked surprised at the girl in front of him, not expecting someone so young to have a place in the Calligraphy Association.

Originally, Ye Chen thought that those who could hold positions like president and vice president in the Calligraphy Association were older people.

Lin Shiyin had changed his perception.

"Miss Lin, truly young and promising, I had no idea you were the vice president of the Calligraphy Association."

Perhaps noticing the surprise in Ye Chen’s eyes, Lin Shiyin joked.

"But it’s just a title in name only."

Ye Chen nodded, knowing that even so, it was very impressive.

"Miss Lin, if I’m not mistaken, someone asked you to invite me to join the Calligraphy Association, right?"

Lin Shiyin smiled and nodded, indicating agreement.

"Mr. Ye, you’re right. Professor Zhang asked me to, no matter what, get you to join the Calligraphy Association. You know Professor Zhang values talent highly; he greatly admires Mr. Ye’s gifts."

Before Ye Chen could respond, Lin Shiyin continued speaking.

"Initially, I was tasked by Professor Zhang to invite you, but after meeting Mr. Ye in person and witnessing your talent, I genuinely hope you can join our Calligraphy Association."

"Miss Lin, you flatter me. In front of you, I’m merely showing off, not really a person of talent."

Ye Chen said modestly.

"Mr. Ye, you’re being too humble. I’ve read your two poems and have seen your musical skills, definitely far superior to mine, making me feel inferior."

Lin Shiyin shook her head and said.

She spoke honestly; when it came to writing poetry and playing piano, she was still somewhat behind Ye Chen.

Ye Chen just smiled without saying anything.

Originally, he thought someone like Lin Shiyin would be very arrogant, but he didn’t expect her to be so charming.

"Mr. Ye, I just want to know now whether you’re willing to join the Calligraphy Association?"

Regarding Lin Shiyin’s question, Ye Chen had already given Zhang Ming an answer before.

But that old fellow was really cunning, even sending a beautiful woman to serve as a persuader.

Actually, even if she were a beauty, Ye Chen could refuse without hesitation.

Ye Chen had seen countless women, what kind of beauty hadn’t he encountered?

A beauty trap had no effect on him whatsoever.

But the key point is, Lin Shiyin had helped him before; this favor he should repay.

In light of the fact that the beauty in front helped him, Ye Chen said with a smile.

"Actually, it’s not impossible for me to join the Calligraphy Association, mainly that my time isn’t so ample, really can’t spare time to participate in activities and such."

Upon hearing this, Lin Shiyin smiled.

She knew by saying that, Ye Chen meant he agreed to join the Calligraphy Association.

Professor Zhang’s task given to her had been completed successfully.

"Ye Chen, stop pretending, do you really have no time? How dare you say that, just looking at your clothes, you’re nothing but a delivery worker."

"Acting like you’re a big boss unable to spare time, aren’t you afraid of making people laugh till their teeth fall out?"

Upon seeing the goddess of his heart praising another man so highly, Wu Tong felt rather wronged.

He realized ever since Lin Shiyin met Ye Chen, she had seemed like a different person.

No matter how long Wu Tong pursued Lin Shiyin, she simply didn’t pay any attention to him.

She wasn’t even willing to say more than a word.

Seeing Lin Shiyin chatting happily with Ye Chen flipped Wu Tong’s jealousy bucket over.

He couldn’t understand why he ranked below a delivery guy in Lin Shiyin’s heart.

Seeing Ye Chen pretending so much, Wu Tong couldn’t take it; he couldn’t help but snap at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen ignored Wu Tong’s words, but Lin Shiyin was displeased.

She snapped, "Wu Tong, right now I’m discussing things with Mr. Ye, you’re not needed here."

This sentence pierced Wu Tong’s fragile heart again.

Wu Tong never dreamed Lin Shiyin would one day scold him in front of another man.

This severely struck his manly pride.

At this moment, Wu Tong was completely enraged; he couldn’t care about anything else anymore.

The anger suppressed in his heart exploded instantly.

Right now, Wu Tong seemed like a different person.
