The beautiful CEO falls in love with me
Chapter 157 - 157 151 148 Milking Girl and Darling

157: Chapter 151 Chapter 148: Milking Girl and Darling 157: Chapter 151 Chapter 148: Milking Girl and Darling The next morning, Ye Chen crawled out of bed and went for a run around the neighborhood.

When he passed Feng Zhixiao’s place, he noticed there was no activity.

It was needless to say, Feng Zhixiao must have spent the night at the casino again, as the chap hadn’t been home since the casino opened.

After a quick wash, Ye Chen immediately drove towards Tianya Group.

In the car, Ye Chen habitually turned on the radio broadcast—it was his routine to catch up on national affairs.

After turning on the radio, it broadcasted news about this year’s third typhoon, Sula, approaching.

In a coastal city such as Jianghuai City, typhoons were rather common occurrences.

Therefore, Ye Chen didn’t pay too much attention, especially since the radio said Typhoon Sula would graze by at a distance of ten kilometers away from Jianghuai City and make landfall in Shenzhen.

After arriving at the company, Little Mei still greeted Ye Chen with her usual politeness.

Her face would turn red every time she greeted Ye Chen.

Ye Chen thought to himself, could Little Ni be falling for me?

Entering the elevator, Ye Chen saw a familiar face.

However, upon seeing Ye Chen, the familiar person immediately turned her head away, not daring to look any longer.

Ye Chen, with no regard for the public setting, chuckled and said, “Yo, Milking Girl, you’re here too!”

“Ah!” Xingxing was immediately infuriated.

Gritting her teeth, she snapped, “Asshole, don’t I need to go to work too?”

“Oh, I thought your job was milking cows!” Ye Chen muttered to himself.

Pfft…

The man across drinking soy milk sprayed it all over Milking Girl’s face.

Instantly, everyone around was stunned.

It wasn’t just that the soy milk drinker had sprayed someone’s face with soy milk that shocked them, but it was the way those white splashes of soy milk on Xingxing’s face resembled the aftermath of an XXX battle…

Click, click…

The sound of cell phone cameras snapping pictures echoed through the space.

The man hastily pulled out tissues, his face a mask of sorrow, and said, “Sorry, sorry, it wasn’t intentional!”

This time, Milking Girl was completely dumbfounded.

She didn’t say a word from beginning to end.

After grabbing the tissues and wiping the soy milk off her face, she slowly walked out, her expression blank and utterly bewildered, as if pondering something deeply.

As the elevator doors closed, Ye Chen got off on the tenth floor and whistled his way into the Business Unit One office.

Everyone was already there, busy at their desks working.

Fang Fei saw Ye Chen coming and immediately handed him a green cup, saying, “Ye Chen, this is a cup I’m giving you.

From now on, you can use it to drink water in the office!”

“Great, thanks!” Ye Chen nodded but didn’t think too much of it.

He took the cup and went straight to the water dispenser for a drink.

It was only when he held the cup that he noticed there was an identical red cup on Fang Fei’s desk, with two words engraved on it: “Baby.” Ye Chen startled, quickly glanced at his own cup, shit, it also had two words: “Darling.”

Ye Chen hastily set the cup down on the desk, deciding to mothball this cup for the future.

“Okay, everyone has been busy with this Northern City District project for quite some time now, any insights?” Ye Chen leaned back on his desk, looked at everyone with a cheerful grin, and asked, “It’s almost the end of October now, and several typhoons have already passed.

Shouldn’t we hold a summary meeting?”

“Vice President Ye, if we need to hold a meeting, it shouldn’t be here!” Liu Shang glanced at Ye Chen and said, “You, as the Vice President, how can you hold a meeting in the business unit?

The summary work should be done by gathering all the departments in the company conference room, and then Mr.

Li should attend.”

Ye Chen was taken aback, and indeed, what Liu Shang said wasn’t wrong.

As a Vice President, he should follow protocol, and every meeting needed to be recorded.

Ye Chen nodded and immediately smiled, “Alright, then let’s prepare to hold the first meeting since I took office today!”

Subsequently, Ye Chen immediately notified the secretarial department to prepare for the meeting.

However, it wasn’t long before the secretarial department told Ye Chen that Mr.

Li and Assistant Lin were not in the office, so they asked if the meeting should still be held.

Ye Chen thought, how is my meeting related to Li Ruo?

If Li Ruo isn’t present, we still need to continue working.

Thus, Ye Chen instructed the departments to proceed with the meeting.

“By the way, where did Mr.

Li go?” Ye Chen quickly asked someone from the secretarial department.

“Oh, Mr.

Li went to Xiangming Mountain today for an inspection,” the secretary hurriedly replied.

“It’s said that the company is interested in investing there to build an amusement park.”

“Oh, I see!” Ye Chen was taken aback before saying, “Alright, let’s continue with our business!”

Afterward, Ye Chen organized a meeting where he personally delivered a speech about the progress of the Northern City District project and some important points to note.

As the meeting was in session, the clear skies suddenly turned overcast with roiling clouds, and a fierce wind caused the glass windows to clatter loudly outside.

“Why has the weather changed so suddenly?” the crowd asked curiously.

“It’s a typhoon, Typhoon Sula is here!” Fang Fei quickly glanced at Ye Chen.

“Never mind that for now—let’s continue the meeting!” Ye Chen waved his hand dismissively and resumed the meeting.

Inside the meeting room, the lights suddenly began to flicker, followed by a power outage.

The room plunged into darkness, leaving Fang Fei very anxious as she sat beside Ye Chen, hastily grabbing his hand in the dark.

“What’s going on?”

“How come the power is out?

That’s odd; the company has never had an outage before!”

The group immediately became abuzz with discussion.

Ye Chen quickly released Fang Fei’s hand and stood up, saying, “Everyone, don’t panic.

Secretary Zhang, call the power supply bureau right away and ask what’s going on!”

“Yes, sir!” Secretary Zhang nodded and after making a call, finally got a response.

It turned out the typhoon had uprooted some large trees and caused the power lines to break.

The repair crew couldn’t carry out emergency repairs because the storm was too strong, and going out could pose a risk to their lives.

Everyone went silent.

Ye Chen, astonished, said, “That’s strange, didn’t the meteorological station report that the typhoon wouldn’t make landfall in Jianghuai City?

How could it cause such a great impact on Jianghuai City?

Secretary Zhang, call the meteorological station immediately and ask what’s going on!”

“Yes, sir!” Secretary Zhang nodded immediately.

With Mr.

Li absent, Vice President Ye essentially became Mr.

Li’s spokesperson.

Without saying another word, Secretary Zhang quickly dialed the meteorological station, but the person on the other line rambled on without getting to the point, prompting Ye Chen to angrily snatch the phone and demand, “I don’t want to listen to your bullshit, just tell me whether the typhoon has made landfall in Jianghuai City or not?”

“That…

um…” There was a brief silence from the other end before the reply came, “Yes!”

“Damn it, where exactly did Typhoon Sula make landfall in Jianghuai City?” Ye Chen asked fiercely.

“Near Xiangming Mountain in Jianghuai City!” the person helplessly responded.

They could only blame the inadequate detection this time and the lack of careful calculation; they had merely relied on so-called experience to predict.

This had led to such a result.

This time, Typhoon Sula was set to traverse the entire Jianghuai City.

A conservative estimate indicated the typhoon’s passage could cause several billion in direct economic losses to the entire Jianghuai City.

“Damn it!” Ye Chen gasped, “In that case, Mr.

Li could be in danger!”

Hisss…

The crowd simultaneously inhaled a cold breath.

Without question, if the typhoon truly made landfall at Xiangming Mountain, then Mr.

Li was indeed in danger.

Everyone in the room took a sharp breath, and all fell silent.

The meeting room turned stifling and deathly quiet.

Whoosh…

Ye Chen turned and ran out.

He hadn’t run far when his phone in his pocket began to ring.

Upon checking the number, it was actually Lin Ziwen calling.

Ye Chen quickly answered.

Perhaps due to a bad location or the severity of the typhoon affecting the signal, the voice was muffled, mixed with noisy interference, “Ye Chen, help me, hurry up and save Mr.

Li, we’re trapped on Xiangming Mountain, come save us quickly!”

“Where on Xiangming Mountain, tell me quickly!” Ye Chen roared into the phone.

“On Xiangming Mountain…” The voice had just gotten that far before cutting off.

Ye Chen ran frantically downstairs from the upper floors.

With no electricity, the company’s emergency lights were on, and the stairwell was passable, but the elevators were inoperable.

As he passed the elevator banks, Ye Chen saw several security guards prying open a half-stopped elevator with a few company employees trapped inside.

Ye Chen rushed down from the tenth floor in one go, sprinting out into a deluge.

Outside was a vast expanse of water, as torrents of rain poured down from the sky.

Cars progressed slowly through the water with their hazard lights flashing.

Braving the heavy rain, Ye Chen leaped into his Oto car, which he had previously modified to prevent rainwater infiltration by raising the exhaust pipe.

Thus, he sped towards Xiangming Mountain.
