Chapter 285: Chapter 285 Appearance of a Competitor_1

They ate until after seven o’clock. Everyone was full, and Wang Ye had had a little to drink, but not too much.

As everyone got ready to leave, Ruan Xiaozhu asked concerned, "How are you, can you drive?"

Wang Ye waved it off, "No problem, only had a little drink, nothing serious."

Indeed he hadn’t drunk much, his face was just slightly flushed.

Outside the Alpha Hotel, the black Mercedes Benz left by Xie Liaosha and the others was parked right across the street.

Wang Ye paused and asked, "Sister Xiaozhu, are you going back to your dorm now? Want a lift? Although you should consider buying a car, it could be inconvenient to commute without one."

"Sure, I was just about to head back. You make it sound so easy. It’s not like buying a car is that simple. I usually take a taxi to and from work, it’s fairly convenient. However, now I can start considering buying a car, after all, just got a bonus, hehe," Ruan Xiaozhu said with a smile.

She was referring to the dividend from Huaxing Communications Company.

Because Wang Ye had given half of his shares to Ruan Xiaozhu, she received a dividend of two hundred thousand US dollars this time!

That money was more than enough for her to buy a pretty decent car.

Both of them got into the car, Wang Ye rolled down the window and waved to Liu Jun and Xiao Hu, then started the car and headed towards the Moscow University dorm.

He planned to drop Ruan Xiaozhu off at her dorm first, and then head back to his apartment.

Truthfully, with Wang Ye’s current wealth, it was sort of beneath him to still be renting an apartment...

But he was currently too lazy to move, after all, it was just him and Angelina living there, there was no need for a larger place.

He would wait for the right opportunity and get a top-notch mansion!

........

The car pulled up outside the main building of the Moscow University dorm, Wang Ye stopped the car and laughed, "We’re here, Sister Xiaozhu you seemed to have drunk quite a bit tonight, hurry back and rest."

Ruan Xiaozhu shook her head, she hadn’t felt much before, but after sitting in the car with the window down, the wind made her feel a bit dizzy.

She laughed and said, "Bro, why don’t you come up with me, we can chat and drink a cup of coffee before you leave."

Wang Ye looked over at Ruan Xiaozhu, her fair face was flushed a charming red, and her eyes were a bit blurred, it seemed like she was a bit drunk.

He was a bit apprehensive, technically he should be helping Ruan Xiaozhu upstairs to keep an eye on her, in case anything happened to her because she was drunk.

However, Wang Ye thought about what happened the last time he was drunk with Nalan Yaqi...

He didn’t dare to go up, afraid that he might cause some trouble again.

Especially considering that Ruan Xiaozhu was his "cousin", although there was no blood relation, it felt wrong somehow!

After thinking about it, he pulled out his phone and made a call, "Hello, Yanzi, where are you? ...Oh, could you come over to my cousin’s dormitory later, she drank a bit too much tonight and needs someone to take care of her, I thought of you... Okay, sure."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Ye laughed and said to Ruan Xiaozhu, "Alright, I’ve asked Yanzi to come and keep you company, you guys are good friends anyway, it’s more convenient. A big man like me going to your dormitory wouldn’t look good. You head back, Yanzi will be there soon, I’m off."

Ruan Xiaozhu stared at Wang Ye for a while then suddenly huffed, pushed open the car door and got out.

She slammed the door shut with particular force, startling Wang Ye.

He wasn’t sure what had gotten into Ruan Xiaozhu, but he couldn’t be bothered to ask. He waved at her, stepped on the accelerator, and the Mercedes Benz roared away.

Ruan Xiaozhu stood there, watched the black Mercedes Benz leave, and spat out angrily, "Look at you, so foolish!"

Then she started laughing, now, she no longer seemed drunk...

..........

Going to Peng City to invest in Tencent was not just talk, Wang Ye had actually been making moves.

He had sent Milna to Peng City as the vanguard a few days ago, to establish initial contact with Tencent and gather some information.

Upon arrival, Milna soon reported that Tencent’s current situation was indeed grim, they were even struggling to pay their employees.

Little Brother Ma was constantly seeking buyers, wanting to sell off the company as a whole.

However, MIH also began interacting with Tencent and sent representatives to Peng City to communicate with Little Brother Ma.

After listening to Milna’s report, Wang Ye furrowed his brows, he was a step too slow.

If he could have invested before MIH got in contact with Tencent, he could have saved a lot of money!

However, now that MIH has entered the scene, if he wants to invest now, he will face competition.

But Wang Ye wasn’t too worried about it. Regardless of the valuation at which he invested in Tencent, the future returns would be huge, there was no need to worry about him losing money.

In terms of financial strength, what does MIH have to compare with him!

The Polar Bear Company’s account still held over nineteen billion US dollars, which was more than the total assets of MIH’s parent company, the South African Media Group!

He didn’t hesitate, and directly told Milna, "I’ll set out tomorrow, first going to the capital to take care of some things, then flying directly to Peng City. You organize something with Tencent, I will visit their company in three days time!"

The reason to visit the capital was to inspect the branch office of the Xiao Ying Group.

Liu Mei had established this branch, and word was it was doing pretty well, Wang Ye decided to check it out during his visit home.

There was no direct flight from Moscow to Peng City anyway, he had to transfer in the capital.

This time returning home, Wang Ye didn’t bring anyone with him, not even Xie Liaosha and his other bodyguards.

After all, he was going back to China, no one there would harm him...

But walking around with a bunch of bodyguards would be too ostentatious which would not be good.

In Russia, Wang Ye could show off high-profile, but when returning to China, he needed to keep as low-key as possible.

.............

The direct flight from Moscow to the capital of China took around eight hours, a long journey indeed.

Even though Wang Ye was flying first class and had a good sleep on the plane, he still felt exhausted when he disembarked at the capital airport.

Due to the time difference, it was still afternoon when he arrived in China. As soon as he walked out of the international arrivals hall, he saw Liu Mei not far away waving at him.

She was there to pick him up.

"How come you are the only one who came back?"

Liu Mei was a bit surprised to see Wang Ye on his own.

When they were in Moscow, she saw that he always had a group of people around him...

"The staff had already been sent to Peng City in advance. Plus, I’m just back to handle some minor things, no need to make a big deal out of it," Wang Ye said with a smile.

"Well then, let’s go. We’ll go to the hotel first for you to rest, then go visit the company. I’ve arranged for a welcome dinner tonight," Liu Mei enthusiastically invited.
