Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group Chapter 1552 - 1526: Ye Chen Is Astonished

Zhou Jun said awkwardly.

"I think I’d better forget it. I don’t want to deal with this kind of woman again."

At this moment, he still felt apprehensive about Ye Chen.

Even though Xu Kai’s series of actions just now had slapped Ye Chen’s face, making Su Wanyi look bad,

he still didn’t dare to actively provoke this frightening guy.

Upon hearing Zhou Jun’s words, Xu Kai didn’t say anything more but instead looked at his girlfriend to probe.

"Little Shuang, it seems that Ye Chen still hasn’t forgotten about you."

Zhang Shuang of course knew what Xu Kai meant by this, she said coyly.

"Darling, I simply despise men like that. From today on, I’ll erase the name Ye Chen from my memory."

Upon hearing this, Xu Kai felt very pleased.

"Little Shuang, I love hearing you talk like that. Today, you humiliate that overconfident guy for me."

At this moment, Su Wanyi and Ye Chen were standing in the hallway outside, the girl looking angrily at Ye Chen.

"Wanyi, what’s wrong? Why are you so angry?"

Ye Chen looked at Su Wanyi with a confused expression and asked.

He didn’t understand why the girl was so angry. In his view, he had nothing to do with Zhang Shuang at all.

"What do you think? You’re just too selfless. Whenever that girl raises the bid, you immediately hand over the item. What do you mean by this?"

Su Wanyi looked at Ye Chen and questioned.

"Wanyi, I think you misunderstood. I just don’t want to compete with a woman over the auction items. Besides, those items aren’t worth that much money."

Ye Chen explained.

"Oh, is that really the case?"

Su Wanyi clearly didn’t believe Ye Chen’s words.

The scene that just unfolded really made her somewhat angry.

Upon learning that Zhang Shuang was Ye Chen’s first love, Su Wanyi became even angrier.

Knowing that Ye Chen is her boyfriend now, and the two have already gotten engaged,

yet her boyfriend was so soft on his first love right in front of her; this was something Su Wanyi couldn’t tolerate.

"Wanyi, why don’t you believe me? Everything I said is true."

Ye Chen really didn’t want to explain anymore. He knew that this kind of matter only gets worse the more he tries to explain.

Seeing Ye Chen truly angry, Su Wanyi also felt her actions were somewhat inappropriate.

Having been with Ye Chen for such a long time, she always unconditionally trusted this man.

Moreover, Ye Chen hadn’t disappointed her.

Thinking of this, she felt she might have misunderstood Ye Chen.

Su Wanyi looked at Ye Chen, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Ye Chen, I’m sorry, I..."

Before Su Wanyi could finish speaking, Ye Chen interrupted.

"Wanyi, whether you believe it or not, the reason I did that wasn’t because of any old feelings. I just thought she was a girl. I’d do the same no matter who it was."

Su Wanyi hurriedly nodded upon hearing this.

But she still wanted to remind Ye Chen not to be so accommodating.

"Ye Chen, you saw that Zhang Shuang is with Zhou Jun and the others. A woman who can be with them isn’t simple either. Your accommodation will only make people think you’re reminiscing."

"Forget it, let them say whatever they want. Anyway, I’m innocent."

Su Wanyi knew Ye Chen wouldn’t stoop to arguing with a woman, and also realized that the next auction would be the same situation.

"Fine, Ye Chen, since you don’t want to, I won’t force you. But I can’t let others misunderstand you like this. I’ll handle it this time."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen looked at Su Wanyi and said.

"Wanyi, don’t be impulsive. I really have no problems."

Su Wanyi looked at Ye Chen and smiled.

"I don’t care about you. Anyway, I can’t let them succeed next time."

After saying this, she took Ye Chen’s arm and walked inside.

This action of Su Wanyi’s caught Ye Chen off guard.

She just looked accusing a moment ago, and now she was completely different.

Ye Chen also felt that women are truly fickle.

Everyone looked in shock at the two walking in intimately, their expressions very surprised.

They felt this Ye Chen really had some skill, to be able to quickly coax the angry Su Wanyi.

As the two walked in, the auction was nearing its end, with only the last item left.

When this item was presented to the crowd, Ye Chen’s expression became extremely surprised.

He never would have dreamed that the calligraphy he gave to Lin Shiyin would become an auction item at the charity event.

And that girl had made the decision herself.

Recollecting the meeting earlier with Lin Shiyin, the surprise she mentioned was probably this.

He turned and looked towards Lin Shiyin, and their eyes met.

Lin Shiyin playfully winked at him.

Of course, Wu Tong was equally surprised, as he had seen the calligraphy before and knew the author was sitting right there.

Wu Tong looked at Lin Shiyin and then Ye Chen with an awkward expression.

Xu Kai and Zhou Jun noticed his odd expression.

"Young Master Wu, what’s wrong?"

Wu Tong didn’t speak, only smiled awkwardly.

Zhou Jun glanced at him, then at the calligraphy, and said with a smile.

"Since this calligraphy surprised Young Master Wu, it must be very well done. I plan to bid on it; I wonder how much would be appropriate?"

Before Wu Tong could speak, the host smiled and said.

"The starting bid for this calligraphy is ten million."

Upon hearing this price, exclamations filled the room.

Many present had collections of calligraphy and paintings, and they knew that such a high-priced calligraphy must have been created by a master artist.

"My goodness, which esteemed artist created this?"

"Who knows, but this person must be very famous; otherwise, it wouldn’t fetch such a high price."

For some reason, after seeing this calligraphy, Sun Bolin’s face became slightly unpleasant.

He looked at Zhang Ming and said crossly.

"Zhang Ming, isn’t it a bit too unethical to auction Mr. Ye’s work without his consent?"

Zhang Ming heard this and looked proud.

This idea was actually suggested by Lin Shiyin.

Knowing that Ye Chen was part of the Calligraphy Association and the Literary Society, but only nominally.

Although it seemed Ye Chen was a member, in reality, it was as if he wasn’t.

Upon receiving the calligraphy, Lin Shiyin had already planned to let everyone know Ye Chen was from the Calligraphy Association.

With this auction, by making Ye Chen’s calligraphy an auction item, his identity would naturally be revealed.

This wouldn’t violate the agreement between her and Ye Chen, and it would also help the Calligraphy Association outshine the Literary Society.
