Chapter 101: If I Say It Out Loud, It Might Scare You

On that day.

After this little episode with the Su family, the couple felt extremely satisfied with themselves.

Especially Su Weimin, who had become much more assertive in his speech, his whole demeanor spirited and full of vigor.

Even Su Weimin had, quite unusually, praised Ye Tianlin in person and instructed him to return and rest first, so as not to exhaust his body, and to come to the hospital later to take turns guarding Su Rulan at night, with the whole family rotating shifts to care for her.

Ye Tianlin had just received the notice that the Overseas Hong Family had sent someone to meet him, so he naturally followed Su Weimin’s suggestion and drove out of the hospital.

After about ten minutes, they arrived at a high-end Chinese restaurant.

Ye Tianlin parked the car and walked straight inside.

Before he could even enter the restaurant, he saw a familiar figure.

It was… Chen Zhigang!

At this moment, Chen Zhigang was dressed in a flashy manner, wearing a suit and tie, his leather shoes gleaming brightly, his face showing an extremely smug expression, walking with his chest puffed out.

The moment he saw Ye Tianlin, Chen Zhigang immediately stopped in his tracks, his mouth curved into a smile, and he said in a sarcastic tone, “Oh, isn’t this Ye Tianlin? You really came to the right place, it’s such a coincidence to bump into you anywhere!”

“Indeed, it’s a coincidence. We meet again. Looking at how you are dressed, you seem to have found a new job. You won’t be fired anymore, right?” Ye Tianlin replied with a smile, teasing him.

Chen Zhigang’s expression tightened, recalling all the past humiliations, feeling extremely aggrieved.

It was one thing to be dismissed from Yunhai Chamber of Commerce forcibly, but after jumping ship to Tiandu Chamber of Commerce, he was slapped in the face again, and within half an hour of joining, he had to pack up and leave. It was truly a shameful humiliation.

Today, since they met again, Chen Zhigang would not miss this opportunity to clear his name!

So, Chen Zhigang raised his hand and adjusted his suit collar as if to make a point, speaking in a strange manner, “You really guessed it right. I have just joined the Overseas Hong Family!”

“You actually have the ability to join the Overseas Hong Family?” Ye Tianlin raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Chen Zhigang hummed twice, unable to suppress his boasting, “If I tell you, it might scare you. Not only have I joined the Overseas Hong Family, but I am also the general representative for the business cooperation between the Overseas Hong Family and the Ye Clan this time!”

“General representative?” Ye Tianlin narrowed his eyes.

Chen Zhigang grew even more excited, placing his hands behind his back and acting arrogantly, “Surprised? Disappointed? What do you think? This time, I have essentially been promoted again, and I already know the general situation regarding you.”

“So, it turns out that this Young Master of the Ye Clan is just a figurehead, long having lost the support of the Ye Clan. To marry that woman Su Rulan, you are willing to use the power of the Shangjing Financial Group to confront the old matriarch. You really are ignorant of your own limits!”

“Under the pressure of the Shangjing Financial Group, the old matriarch had no choice but to temporarily compromise, but now things are different. Once the cooperation with the Overseas Hong Family is signed, the Shangjing Financial Group will have to withdraw its edge, and you will definitely be suppressed to the point where you can’t even raise your head!”

“As for me, I am the general representative for this business, and given the importance of the matter, your nominal position as Young Master won’t affect me in any way. I don’t have to look at your face!”

With that, Chen Zhigang’s face was full of smugness and pride.

Ye Tianlin smiled strangely and said, “What a coincidence. I came here today for the Overseas Hong Family’s business too.”

“You wouldn’t be trying to stop the cooperation with the Overseas Hong Family, would you? Dream on. With your current state, you can’t stir up any big waves. Even if the Young Master Hong meets you, he definitely won’t pay attention to you. After all, no one knows whether the old matriarch will finally abolish you and replace you with someone else.” Chen Zhigang said sarcastically.

Ye Tianlin suddenly got interested and didn’t rush to expose it, saying, “Without going in to meet the Overseas Hong Family’s young master, how would I know the outcome?”

“Sure, today I’ll make you suffer enough!” Chen Zhigang decided on the spot and walked into the restaurant first.

Seeing this, Ye Tianlin followed leisurely.

Soon they came to a private room. Chen Zhigang knocked on the door first and then pushed it open.

As expected, in the spacious and luxurious restaurant private room, there was currently a young man sitting, radiating a strong aura of nobility. It was none other than the young master of the Overseas Hong Family, Hong Jiayuan.

Chen Zhigang acted like a dog, immediately running to the front with his tail wagging, his smile blooming like a flower.

Then, Chen Zhigang raised his hand and pointed at Ye Tianlin standing outside the door, saying, “Young Master Hong, you absolutely wouldn’t expect this: Ye Tianlin actually wants to see you and wants to stop the cooperation with the Overseas Hong Family!”

Hong Jiayuan lifted his gaze, and upon seeing Ye Tianlin, he suddenly stood up abruptly.

Chen Zhigang immediately added fuel to the fire, saying, “Young Master Hong, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We can properly humiliate this guy and also vent some anger for the old matriarch of the Ye Clan, so that he knows what the consequences of defying authority are. This way, the cooperation will be smoother!”

Hong Jiayuan held his breath, turned his head to glare at Chen Zhigang, and asked with twitching mouth, “Do you know who he is?”

Chen Zhigang shrugged nonchalantly and said, “Isn’t he just Ye Tianlin, the useless young master who anyone can step on, even the old matriarch looks down on?”
