Chapter 150 - 150 144 141 The Suicidal Maniac

150: Chapter 144 Chapter 141: The Suicidal Maniac 150: Chapter 144 Chapter 141: The Suicidal Maniac Ye Chen’s work had earned everyone’s affirmation, and everyone harbored a good feeling toward him.

Although he was already a vice president, he didn’t exhibit any of the airs typical of one.

Whenever people mentioned Vice President Ye, they couldn’t help but give a thumbs-up.

In the span of a week, Ye Chen had been running around the Northern City District, and his complexion had turned as dark as charred wood.

Every time Fang Fei saw Ye Chen, she couldn’t resist teasing, “This humble girl pays respects to Lord Bao!”

Ye Chen was indeed a very dedicated person.

He never shirked his duties, and even if it wasn’t his responsibility, he tried hard to lend others a hand.

Some said it was just Ye Chen’s nature, but what no one knew was that it was because Ye Chen had Li Ruo on his mind.

He was aware of the immense burden a girl like Li Ruo bore, carrying the weight of the entire Tianya Group on her shoulders.

So, he was determined to alleviate some of her stress.

The project in the Northern City District was currently the most important and crucial for Tianya Group.

If the project failed, the entire group would plummet into an abyss and could even face the danger of bankruptcy.

Just the piece of land in the Northern City District had already drained all of Tianya Group’s liquid funds.

The construction alone needed at least the price of another plot of land.

The estimated cost of development in the Central Business District was over twenty billion.

Thus, for Tianya Group, which had almost no liquid funds available, coming up with twenty billion was virtually impossible.

The only viable options they could think of were collaboration and bank loans.

At this moment, Ye Chen, wearing a straw hat, was inspecting the Northern City District.

The scattered residents on the land had slowly started relocating.

Of course, this was mainly thanks to the efforts of both Ye Chen and Fang Fei.

If it wasn’t for their persuading those elderly people to leave, it would have been hard to start construction anytime soon.

A fleet of bulldozers and excavators entered the site, flattening the land.

Once that task was complete, the excavation work for the foundations began.

“Lord Bao, have you arrived?” Fang Fei approached like a mischievous sprite.

Ye Chen grinned and replied, “I’m just worried, so I came to check!”

“Hmph, what’s there to worry about?

Isn’t that just a blatant lack of trust in our work?” Fang Fei snorted softly.

“How could that be?” Ye Chen hurriedly shook his head.

Over these many days, he had come to know that Fang Fei liked to be praised.

If anyone dared to criticize her, they would face her relentless counterattack.

Ye Chen had learned this the hard way.

Fang Fei pouted, “Then why did you come?”

“Alright, I won’t come anymore, I have to go!” Ye Chen took off the straw hat from his head and placed it on Fang Fei’s, saying, “I’m leaving now.

Don’t get sunburned!”

“I don’t want your stupid straw hat!” Fang Fei cooed, removing the hat.

Ye Chen didn’t care about that and directly hopped into a nearby Oto car.

He waved to Fang Fei before speeding off the scene.

Holding Ye Chen’s straw hat, Fang Fei felt incredibly sweet inside.

She held onto the hat, reluctant to discard it, and after some thought, she finally put it on her head.

It might look a bit rustic, but it had been worn by Ye Chen.

Fang Fei felt sweet inside.

Ye Chen drove straight to the casino.

He had been so occupied with Tianya Group’s projects that he had forgotten about Feng Zhixiao.

He believed that over this week, the casino must have brought in quite a sum.

When Ye Chen arrived at the casino, the little brothers at the entrance shouted, “Brother Chen, you’ve arrived!”

“Mm, where’s Feng Zhixiao?” Ye Chen immediately asked.

“Oh, Zhi Xiao is upstairs!” the little brothers replied in unison.

Ye Chen strode in.

The casino’s slot machine area was crowded with people holding Crystal Coins, and those sitting in front of the slot machines had various expressions on their faces: some were hopeful, some surprised, some excited, some downcast, and some crying in despair…

It was like a microcosm of life’s spectrum.

Watching these people, Ye Chen helplessly shook his head.

Although everyone knew the adage ‘the house always wins,’ each person couldn’t resist entering the casino, wagering their fortunes in a daze, betting in a life-or-death gamble.

Walking further inside, past the private rooms, Ye Chen directly went upstairs.

The second floor was quiet.

As he pushed open the conference room door, Ye Chen was nearly choked by the atmosphere.

“What the hell are you all doing here?!” Ye Chen quickly stepped back.

Feng Zhixiao was startled and quickly stood up, “Brother Chen, you’ve arrived?”

“Big Brother!” Jiang Wei also stood up promptly, while only Da Hei sat stably in his chair, his eyes pensive.

Ye Chen asked curiously, “What are you guys doing here, discussing some big issue?”

As he said this, Feng Zhixiao immediately bowed his head, while Jiang Wei could not stand by and angrily said, “Big Brother, that bastard Yan Bu’er sent a warning.

He demands that we lead our men to submit to him, or else, he will wipe us out completely.”

“Yan Bu’er?!” Ye Chen was startled and quickly asked, “When did this happen?”

“Three days ago.” Da Hei stood up, holding a cigarette in his hand, glanced at Ye Chen, and said, “Which means tonight, if we don’t submit, they’ll bring their people to the casino to find us!”

“Let them come!” Ye Chen said coldly with a chuckle.

“Do they really think we’re that easy to bully?”

“But…” Feng Zhixiao looked at Ye Chen with difficulty and said, “Brother Chen, we only have a few dozen brothers.

Compared to the thousands of people in Yan Bu’er’s hands, we’re just fighting out of our league.

Yan Bu’er has made his stance clear; if we choose to resist, then they will blow the whistle tonight!”

“Damn, he dares to blow the whistle!” Ye Chen snorted coldly.

“I’m going to find him right now!”

With that, Ye Chen turned and walked away.

Feng Zhixiao and Jiang Wei hurriedly followed, leaving Da Hei to watch the scene.

Xiao Er, that little brat, was hugging a thirteen-year-old girl, and boy, the girls nowadays develop really well at thirteen, even adults would drool looking at them, those breasts, that butt, that slender waist…

Xiao Er proudly announced to everyone, “This chick is mine, none of you are allowed to touch her!”

Ye Chen led his men and drove straight to the Flame Dragon Gang’s headquarters.

On the way, the little Oto was emitting thick smoke, choking passersby.

Some even raised their phones to take photos, hoping to capture the car and then report it.

But after taking the photos, they realized the smoke was too thick to see the license plate clearly.

The car finally arrived at the Flame Dragon Gang.

Ye Chen walked straight into the building.

The security guard at the door stopped Ye Chen and asked, “What do you want?”

“I’m looking for Yan Bu’er!” Ye Chen snorted coldly.

“Humph, you think you can just see Mr.

Yan whenever you want?

Do you have an appointment?” The security guard looked at Ye Chen arrogantly; after all, Ye Chen didn’t look the part with his dark, weather-beaten skin, like he’d just come from the fields.

Ye Chen raised his fist and swung it at the security guard, who fell down at the impact.

Ye Chen flexed his fist and said, “Fuck your sister, this is my appointment, got it?”

“Dare to block Brother Chen’s way, seems like you’re tired of living!” Feng Zhixiao raised his foot and stomped hard on the security guard’s chest, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood immediately.

Jiang Wei followed inside, walked over to the guard, and shook his head with regret.

“I don’t normally bully people, but when I do, they’re not treated like people!”

He then jumped on top of the man, ruthlessly battering his body.

The security guard was beaten bloody by the three of them.

Another security guard saw what was happening and immediately rang the alarm bell designed specifically for brawls.

Usually, fearing revenge, the guards had installed an alarm bell at the entrance.

In any emergency, they’d ring it, and other guards from the building would come rushing.

These so-called guards were actually just little hoodlums, members of the Flame Dragon Gang.

A group of dozens rushed out from inside the building, encircling Ye Chen and his two friends.

The leading security guard sneered, “You three have some nerve, barging into the Flame Dragon Gang’s headquarters like this.

Seems like you’re asking for it!”

“Fuck!” Without saying another word, Ye Chen threw a flying kick, sending the bold-talking guy tumbling to the ground.

The guard lay there, pointing at Ye Chen and the others, struggling to breathe before shouting weakly, “Kill…

kill…

kill them!”

“Go!” The group surged forward all at once.

Ye Chen, unhurried, took a cigarette from his pocket and put it in his mouth.

He took off his jacket, twisted it into a rope, and with a fierce lash, wrapped it around a guy’s neck, yanked hard, and the man stumbled.

Ye Chen leaped into the air, his legs flashing out like lightning, striking two men.

Soon, both men lay on the ground, not getting up.

Feng Zhixiao tangled with two guards, receiving some minor injuries, and Jiang Wei got cut on the arm with a machete.

Ye Chen was unscathed, the cigarette in his mouth still smoldering, though already half-burned.
