Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group Chapter 1561 - 1535: Beauty’s Call

This scene was captured by other classmates.

Some even directly posted the video online.

Ye Chen went viral once again.

However, that boy and his father were scolded terribly.

After leaving school, Ye Chen decided to go home.

At this moment, the phone rang. Surprisingly, it was an unknown number.

Ye Chen didn’t intend to answer, but the number had called many times.

Helplessly, he could only pick up.

"Who are you looking for?"

Ye Chen asked.

Hearing his question, the girl was stunned and felt very sad.

"Mr. Ye, don’t you remember me?"

Ye Chen thought this was surely a new scam tactic; he wouldn’t fall for it.

"Why should I remember you? If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up."

The girl quickly said.

"Please don’t, Mr. Ye, I’m Zhang Yuan. Don’t you remember me?"

Hearing her name, Ye Chen thought for a moment and realized she was not a scammer.

In his memory, he had once saved a girl from Cute Doll’s subordinates, probably named this.

"Sorry, Miss Zhang, I just answered a scam caller and thought she’d called again."

Ye Chen lied directly.

He found this very awkward. Previously, the girl had asked him to remember her number, but he hadn’t paid attention.

"Oh, it’s fine, Mr. Ye,"

Zhang Nuan said with a smile.

She was quite happy that Ye Chen could actually remember her.

Initially, upon hearing Ye Chen’s words, she thought Ye Chen didn’t remember her at all.

Ye Chen also wondered why Zhang Yuan suddenly called him, perhaps she encountered difficulties and wanted his help?

"Miss Zhang, what’s up?"

Zhang Yuan responded.

"Mr. Ye, you saved me before, and I said I wanted to treat you to a meal. I wonder if you’re free today?"

Ye Chen didn’t speak. He didn’t understand why, after so many days, Zhang Yuan suddenly called to invite him to a meal.

Possibly guessing his thoughts, Zhang Yuan quickly said.

"I initially wanted to treat you, but family matters kept me too busy, so it got delayed until now."

Ye Chen felt his recent luck with women was overwhelming, always finding girls looking for him.

But he also thought helping Zhang Yuan was just a small favor, not worth a meal as thanks.

"Miss Zhang, I think we can skip the meal,"

Ye Chen declined.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuan quickly said.

"Mr. Ye, there’s an important reason why I’m inviting you today; I’m leaving this city."

This surprised Ye Chen a bit, as he heard the resignation and reluctance in her voice.

"Why are you leaving?"

Ye Chen quickly asked.

Zhang Yuan didn’t answer but continued.

"Mr. Ye, could I meet you before I leave?"

Since the girl had said this much, Ye Chen would seem unkind to refuse.

"Okay, let’s meet at a cafe. I’ll send you the location later."

Ye Chen chose a cafe because of its good environment for conversation.

He knew from her mood, she would unlikely have an appetite.

It’s better than eating alone in a restaurant, which would be awkward.

Over half an hour later, Ye Chen drove to Luckin Cafe and found a seat.

A while later, Zhang Yuan walked in from outside.

She immediately saw Ye Chen sitting by the window.

At this time, Ye Chen also saw her.

Ye Chen felt the girl before him had changed significantly since he saw her in the mall.

Zhang Yuan had clearly become much more haggard, yet he understood what she was going through.

"Miss Zhang, please sit, what would you like to drink?"

Ye Chen said with a smile.

Then he called the waiter and ordered two Americanos.

After the waiter left, Zhang Yuan looked at Ye Chen and said.

"Mr. Ye, don’t you find my invitation today very abrupt?"

"Not at all, I happen to be free this afternoon,"

Ye Chen waved his hand and said.

Then he continued.

"Just call me Ye Chen. Calling me Mr. Ye sounds awkward; makes me feel older."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuan smiled.

Her mood had been bad, but seeing Ye Chen changed it significantly.

"Alright, you can call me by my name too."

Ye Chen nodded, agreeing.

After a brief silence, neither of them knew what to say, causing some awkwardness.

Ye Chen broke the silence.

"Zhang Yuan, why are you leaving? Isn’t it nice here?"

In fact, Zhang Yuan wanted to tell Ye Chen about this but didn’t know how to start.

Fortunately, Ye Chen brought up the topic first.

"Ye Chen, actually, my home isn’t here. I came here for college,"

Zhang Yuan slowly said after sipping her coffee.

Ye Chen wasn’t surprised by her words; many people here aren’t born here.

He knew many people were like Zhang Yuan, choosing schools here after the college entrance exam, then settling down.

Ye Chen stayed silent, not wanting to interrupt her, listening quietly to her account.

"Since graduating over a year ago, I haven’t found a formal job here. Living costs are very high, and I have to send some money back home,"

Zhang Yuan’s expression was pained.

Ye Chen could hardly imagine how the girl before him managed alone.

With her looks, she could find a rich man and become a third mistress, living well.

But Zhang Yuan didn’t want such a life. She wanted to earn it through her own efforts.

However, reality was harsh. She applied to many companies, and bosses, seeing her appearance, developed sinister intentions, touching her.

Zhang Yuan, of course, wouldn’t yield; she left the company in anger.

She originally thought, with hard work, she’d find a good job, living in Modu henceforth.

But in job searches repeatedly encountering the same issues, she could only decide to leave.

Before leaving, Zhang Yuan most wanted to see Ye Chen, the person who saved her.

Thus, she gathered the courage to dial Ye Chen’s number.
