Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group Chapter 1590 - 1564: Stingy System
Previously on Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group...
The girl saw no one tending to her, and her voice was already tinged with tears.
The girl never dreamed she would encounter such a thing.
Without her phone, she couldn’t contact anyone; without her wallet, she couldn’t go home.
She couldn’t imagine what she would do in an unfamiliar place without a phone and penniless.
At this moment, she had no desire to watch the performance.
The girl walked out of the crowd with a forlorn look, wandering aimlessly.
The people nearby wouldn’t care about others; they continued watching the float parade.
However, Ye Chen also walked out with the girl.
The girl noticed someone following her; she turned around and said.
"My phone and wallet have been stolen. Are you happy now?"
Ye Chen didn’t expect the girl to say such a thing.
But he could understand her feelings—after all, anyone encountering such a situation would be upset.
Moreover, they had some unpleasant encounters earlier.
"Miss, make it clear, I’m not here to laugh at you; I want to help you. If you don’t want it, forget it."
Ye Chen also felt he had no reason to help someone like her, who was ungrateful.
"I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I apologize for my rudeness earlier."
The girl felt a wave of gratitude hearing Ye Chen’s words.
Thinking about how she treated this guy just now, yet he was still willing to help her in her time of trouble.
"You can apologize later; check your bag again. Besides the phone and wallet, is anything else missing?"
Ye Chen looked at the girl with a serious expression and said.
The girl followed Ye Chen’s advice and checked her bag again, shook her head, and said.
"Nothing else is gone."
Ye Chen nodded and said.
"Tell me roughly what your phone and wallet look like."
The girl briefly described them to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen looked at her and said.
"Okay, I’ll help you find them."
"Let me go with you; the more hands, the better."
The girl suggested.
"Forget it, stay here and wait. Having you by my side makes it harder for me to search."
Ye Chen refused.
The girl knew that she would only be a burden to Ye Chen, sensibly nodded, and said.
"Alright, then I’ll leave it to you."
Ye Chen said nothing and ran forward.
"System, help me find someone."
Ye Chen said to the system in his mind.
"Host, if you want my help, you need to purchase a tracker from the system’s shop."
The system replied.
Ye Chen thought to himself what a stingy system, asking him to pay for a favor.
He knew the system was incredibly powerful, finding someone should be a piece of cake for it.
Yet somehow, this fellow was being so miserly.
"Fine, I’ll buy it."
Ye Chen opened the system’s shop and checked the price, almost bulging his eyes out.
"Is this a money grab system, a tracker for a billion yuan?"
"Everything in the shop is clearly marked; we deceive neither the old nor the young."
The system replied.
Given the urgency, Ye Chen knew if he delayed any longer, the thief might have already left the park.
Reluctantly, he coughed up a billion yuan to purchase the tracker.
Amazingly, after Ye Chen finished the payment, a small sphere appeared in his hand.
"System, are you kidding me? Don’t tell me this small sphere is the tracker you mentioned?"
Ye Chen said with displeasure.
"Host, I’m serious about business; this is indeed it."
The system replied with a solemn tone.
Yet, Ye Chen examined the object, which looked like a ball, roughly the size of a ping-pong ball.
Since the system said it was, then it had to be.
Ye Chen was about to run forward when the ball in his hand suddenly began to vibrate, and four words appeared before his eyes.
"Wrong direction."
Ye Chen adjusted his direction and ran again, and like this, he ended up at the queue for the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train.
He realized that the thief planned to steal something else.
Suddenly, Ye Chen saw a familiar silhouette, none other than Fan Ying.
"Brother Ye Chen, you came looking for me."
Fan Ying was feeling a bit down but didn’t expect Ye Chen came to find her.
Now, she was very happy.
"Yes, I noticed you’ve been away for a while, so I came over."
Ye Chen said, standing beside Fan Ying.
Then, he found the small ball vibrated again, and another line of words appeared.
"Target has appeared."
Ye Chen knew the thief was in the queue and very close to him.
Since Ye Chen wasn’t standing in the line, as he walked left and right, the ball showed no reaction.
But when he was by a man’s side, Ye Chen noticed the ball vibrating more strongly.
Another line of words appeared.
"Target locked."
To Ye Chen’s surprise, the ball in his hand suddenly flew out and hit a man’s head directly.
Ye Chen examined the man, who was the one who had switched places with the girl earlier.
He was probably onto something, and indeed, his thoughts were confirmed.
The man had switched places to target the girl’s bag, gaining her favor to make his move less detectable.
"Who on earth hit me with a ball?"
The man complained angrily, clutching his head.
"It was me. Hand over the stolen items."
Prompted by Ye Chen, the woman ahead of the thief checked her pocket and shouted.
"My phone, where’s my phone?"
The guy hurriedly looked at Ye Chen and said.
"I don’t know what you’re talking about. Oh, I remember now, are you jealous of me switching places with the girl, so you came here to stir trouble?"
Ye Chen thought this guy really had some imagination, coming up with that idea.
"You know what you did. Can you open your bag to let me see?"
Ye Chen said with an icy expression.
Fan Ying noticed Ye Chen’s argument with the guy, looked at Ye Chen, and said.
"Brother Ye Chen, what’s going on?"
"Nothing, Yingying, go ahead and play."
Ye Chen waved and said.
At this moment, it was Fan Ying’s turn; hearing Ye Chen’s words, she happily went to enjoy the ride.
Seeing Fan Ying’s actions, Ye Chen was speechless.
But he didn’t need Fan Ying’s help here, and it was better to let the girl have fun.
"Why should I open my bag for you to see?"
The guy retorted.
He knew if he opened the bag, his scheme would be exposed.
There’s no way the other party would search his bag without permission.
