Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group Chapter 1579 - 1553: Increasing Favorability
Previously on Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group...
After Ye Chen left, Robert looked at the manager and said,
"In the future, you must remember this lesson. Mr. Ye is magnanimous and isn’t pursuing this matter; otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to save you."
The manager was still shaken at this moment; he never expected that he had offended such a big shot.
Ye Chen, Yang Tiantian, and the father and daughter walked out of the restaurant together.
"Mr. Ye, I really have to thank you for making my daughter have such a happy birthday today."
The uncle said gratefully, his eyes even welling up with emotion.
Ye Chen waved his hand and said,
"No need to be so polite; it’s what I should do."
In Ye Chen’s eyes, he thought it was just a small gesture, nothing worth thanking for.
The uncle was a simple man and didn’t know what else to say; besides thanks, he didn’t know how to express his feelings.
"Big brother, will we meet again in the future?"
The little girl asked in a childish voice.
"Yes, of course we will."
Ye Chen smiled as he patted the little girl’s head.
The uncle had initially thought it was a kind lie Ye Chen told his daughter, but he didn’t expect that, just as Ye Chen said, they would meet again.
"Alright, Yaya, let’s go. We don’t want to take up too much of the big brother’s time."
The uncle said, pulling his daughter along.
The little girl reluctantly left with her father.
The reason Yaya had a good impression of Ye Chen was because, aside from her father, only Ye Chen made her feel warm.
"Uncle, wait a minute."
Ye Chen suddenly called out.
The uncle stopped in his tracks immediately when he heard the voice behind him. He turned to look at Ye Chen.
"Mr. Ye, is there anything else?"
Ye Chen smiled and said,
"Uncle, let me use your phone for a moment."
The uncle, though puzzled by this request, still did as Ye Chen asked.
He handed the phone to Ye Chen, wondering what this young man intended to do.
But the uncle knew that Ye Chen certainly didn’t mean any harm.
Ye Chen glanced at the phone after taking it; the uncle’s phone was really quite old.
The uncle felt a bit embarrassed upon seeing Ye Chen’s expression.
Ye Chen input his phone number into it, then dialed his own phone, so he could know the uncle’s number.
This would make it easier to keep in touch in the future.
"Uncle, my name is Ye Chen. I’ve saved my phone number in your phone, so if you need anything, you can contact me."
Ye Chen handed the phone back to the uncle with a smile.
The uncle smiled and said,
"Alright, Mr. Ye."
Ye Chen knew the uncle’s temperament; even if he encountered problems, he wouldn’t call him.
Therefore, it would still require Ye Chen to take the initiative to contact him.
The uncle left with his daughter.
Ye Chen looked at Yang Tiantian and said,
"Tiantian, I’m really sorry that the matter with the uncle interrupted your meal."
Yang Tiantian pursed her lips and smiled, saying,
"Not at all. I enjoyed this meal very much, and I got to see your kind side."
After Tiantian said this, Ye Chen seemed a bit embarrassed.
"Don’t talk like that; I’m not as good as you think."
Yang Tiantian was not foolish; she naturally understood the meaning of Ye Chen’s words.
"Don’t be so modest; excessive modesty is arrogance, you know."
Yang Tiantian joked.
"Come on, let me drive you home."
Ye Chen suddenly said.
As he spoke, he walked towards the Lykan and pressed the car key in his hand.
When Yang Tiantian saw the car before, she looked a bit surprised.
She came from a noble family and naturally knew that the owner of such a car couldn’t be an ordinary person.
But what she didn’t expect was that this car belonged to Ye Chen.
Seeing Yang Tiantian’s surprised expression, Ye Chen asked,
"Tiantian, why aren’t you moving?"
Yang Tiantian was so shocked that she couldn’t speak.
She was wondering how, if Ye Chen was really just a food delivery guy, he could have a restaurant owner treat him with such respect, or own a limited edition sports car.
Countless question marks popped into Yang Tiantian’s mind.
"Ye Chen, what is your true identity?"
Hearing the girl’s sudden inquiry, Ye Chen said with a smile,
"Tiantian, I told you, I’m just a delivery guy, I don’t have any special identity."
It was clear from Yang Tiantian’s face that she didn’t believe him at all.
Even so, Yang Tiantian didn’t ask any more questions.
Since she drove, she didn’t let Ye Chen give her a ride.
The two of them parted ways at the restaurant entrance and left separately.
Looking at his watch, it was now nine in the evening.
Ye Chen took out his phone and dialed Su Wanyi’s number.
"Wanyi, are you still at the office? I’ll come pick you up."
Su Wanyi thought Ye Chen’s call was very timely; she was worrying about how her car had broken down and she needed to take a cab home.
"Sure, I’ll wait for you at the office."
Su Wanyi replied with a smile.
Although she found it strange that Ye Chen would call her, she took it as a sign of their mutual understanding.
Actually, Ye Chen called because he felt guilty towards Su Wanyi.
After all, he was in the wrong; despite having a girlfriend, he went on a date with another girl and even visited a restaurant meant for couples.
After a while, Su Wanyi’s phone rang again, and she saw it was Ye Chen calling.
Normally, Ye Chen wouldn’t come up when he arrived at the company’s entrance; he would just call Su Wanyi to let her know he was there.
Su Wanyi didn’t answer the call but instead left the office, took the elevator, and headed towards the building’s exit.
Ye Chen waved to her, and Su Wanyi got into the car.
To be honest, Ye Chen felt conflicted; he wanted to see Su Wanyi but was also afraid to face her.
As soon as Su Wanyi got in the car, she looked at Ye Chen and said,
"Honey, why are you being so nice today and came to pick me up? You know, I was just fretting in the office."
Ye Chen looked at Su Wanyi and asked,
"What were you fretting about? Did you miss me?"
Su Wanyi openly expressed her feelings, saying,
"Well, that’s partly the reason, but more importantly, I couldn’t drive home since the car broke down. Oh, tomorrow I’ll need you to take me to the office again."
Ye Chen replied,
"Hmm, I’ll have to think about it."
"Forget it, I don’t need you, I can just take a cab."
Su Wanyi rolled her eyes at Ye Chen and said,
Ye Chen didn’t expect this girl to be so unamused by his teasing and quickly said,
"No problem, it’s my pleasure to drive my wife. I’m President Su’s personal driver."
Hearing Ye Chen say this, Su Wanyi nodded contentedly.
