The beautiful CEO falls in love with me
Chapter 250 - 250 241 238 Hero

250: Chapter 241 Chapter 238: Hero 250: Chapter 241 Chapter 238: Hero “Lower!” Li Ruo was startled, her hand moved downward, sliding over a rough area before immediately touching a Sky Pillar.

She paused slightly and, grasping it, her face turned red as she asked, “Is this the place?”

“Uh-huh, that’s right!” Ye Chen nodded hastily and said, “Symptoms are as follows: palpitations, irritability, chest oppression, boiling blood.

Diagnosis: excessive energy.

Treatment method: a beauty!”

“Pfft!” Li Ruo’s slippery hand punitively pinched hard on that steel rod of Ye Chen’s, snickering, “Looking for a beauty, huh?

There’s a great beauty waiting at the door to cure you!”

“Really?” Ye Chen blinked, quickly smiling, “Quick, call her in!”

Li Ruo glared at Ye Chen, then shouted toward the door, “Ziwen, let them in, Ye Chen is awake!”

After speaking, Li Ruo immediately turned and went into the restroom, planning to freshen up her makeup after a thorough crying session being quite depleted.

At the door, Lin Xue’er received Li Ruo’s order, and immediately invited Lin Xue’er and the others into the ward.

When Ye Chen saw who had come in, he was dumbfounded.

Seeing Lin Xue’er, whom he had struggled to elude last time, he blurted out, “It’s you?”

“Hehe, hero, it’s me!” Lin Xue’er cheerfully leaned over.

It seemed that she had completely forgotten about not interviewing Ye Chen during the bank robbery last time.

Ye Chen felt curious—given Lin Xue’er’s nature, she should bear grudges, right?

Could she be an exception?

Looking at Ye Chen’s stunned face, Lin Xue’er smiled and said, “That’s right, I…

I really admire you, hero!”

Once again, ‘hero’ was mentioned twice, giving Ye Chen goosebumps.

Hearing this girl’s tone, he guessed she must want something from him; otherwise, why would she be so eager?

No good deed comes unsolicited, unless it’s a scam or a theft.

“What is it?” Ye Chen looked at her.

“I…

I’d like to invite you to be a guest on my show!” Lin Xue’er looked at Ye Chen expectantly, asking, “What do you think?”

“What’s in it for me?” Ye Chen leaned back against the headboard, fiddling with his fingers.

Lin Xue’er was taken aback and asked, “What benefit do you want?”

“I remember there’s a benefit fee for appearing on TV shows, right?” Ye Chen said with a sly smile.

“Nonsense, at most a boxed lunch!” Lin Xue’er immediately shook her head and said, “Besides, you’re neither Liu Dehua nor Fan Bingbing.

Why should our TV station pay you an appearance fee?

Seriously!”

“Is Liu Dehua a hero?

Whom has he saved?

Is Fan Bingbing a hero?

Whom has she saved?” Ye Chen coldly scoffed at Lin Xue’er, saying, “You know very well about the last bank robbery case; I did so much, saved so many people.

Doesn’t that count for more than a Liu Dehua, more than a Fan Bingbing?”

Ye Chen’s speech left Lin Xue’er speechless.

Indeed, Liu Dehua’s appearance fee was so high, yet he hadn’t saved anyone; on the contrary, Ye Chen had saved more than just one or two people.

During that bank robbery, he single-handedly saved over a dozen hostages.

Just this one feat was incredibly significant, but unfortunately, the police took all the credit and Ye Chen got nothing.

“This…” Lin Xue’er gritted her teeth and said, “I’ll try discussing it with the station, okay?”

“No, you need to give me a quote first!” Ye Chen was not in a hurry, seeing as the girl was naive and innocent.

Without squeezing something out of her, she wouldn’t realize how complicated the world really is.

Lin Xue’er nervously blinked and said, “One hundred thousand yuan, how about that?”

“Damn, are you kidding me?” Ye Chen suddenly became furious, startling Lin Xue’er.

Ye Chen glared at her and said, “Liu Dehua’s appearance fee is one million, and you offer me one hundred thousand yuan?

Are you looking down on me?”

“I…

I didn’t mean that!” Lin Xue’er tearfully looked at Ye Chen, saying, “the one hundred thousand yuan is all my personal savings.”

“Alright, alright!

One hundred thousand it is!” Ye Chen helplessly shook his head.

Even as he finally agreed, he glanced at Lin Xue’er and said, “Later on, make sure you ask your station to apply for some fund to compensate me.

Just giving me one hundred thousand yuan is too simplistic.”

“Okay!” Lin Xue’er hurriedly nodded and said, “So, are you agreeing to come to my show as a guest?”

“Absolutely, but I’ll go only after your one hundred thousand yuan is in my account!” Ye Chen quickly replied.

“So, I’ll give you fifty thousand first, and after the show, I’ll make up the other fifty thousand.

How does that sound?” Lin Xue’er wasn’t stupid, knowing to keep some money in her hands to prevent Ye Chen from having any second thoughts.

Ye Chen nodded and said, “Looks like you’re not so dumb after all!”

“Hmph, you’re the dumb one!” Lin Xue’er immediately took out her phone, transferred fifty thousand yuan to Ye Chen using mobile banking, then got up and left, saying, “When you’re completely better, I’ll come find you!”

After she spoke, she immediately left the ward with the cameraman, not saying another word.

Once Lin Xue’er had left, Li Ruo came out of the restroom.

Women putting on makeup is really a deadly affair.

It took Li Ruo over ten minutes just to touch up her makeup; who knows how long it takes to do a full face?

“Scoundrel, you actually dared to extort money from Lin Xue’er?” Li Ruo said with a smirk, “Do you know who her dad is?”

“Hmph, I don’t care who he is.

Pluck a feather from a passing goose, even if King Yan came, I’d still pluck one of his whiskers!” Ye Chen said with a cold smile.

Pfft…

Li Ruo immediately covered her mouth and laughed, amused by Ye Chen’s humor.

Shortly after, it was just the two of them left in the room, and suddenly it seemed a bit awkward.

Neither seemed to know what to say.

Ye Chen scratched his head and said, “Mr.

Li, the project in the Northern City District hasn’t encountered any problems, has it?”

“No, not for now!” Li Ruo shook her head, saying, “Most of the funds have already arrived, but after Zhang Bufen invested two billion, he decided to come work at the company!

Being the second largest investor in the project in the Northern City District, he feels entitled to make that decision!”

“What position does he hold?” Ye Chen asked curiously.

“Don’t worry, there’s no big connection between you and him!” Li Ruo said with a faint smile, “The Northern City District project is too big, so I’ve decided to establish a new company specifically to handle this project.

How about I make you the general manager of this company?”

“Does that mean others will have to call me ‘Mr.

Ye’ when they see me?” Ye Chen grinned.

“Yes, Mr.

Ye!” Li Ruo revealed a sweet smile.

Ye Chen laughed heartily, slapped his chest, and said, “Come on, there’ll be a reward for serving Mr.

Ye well!”

“Jerk, what do you take me for?

Believe it or not, I’ll slap you!” Li Ruo glared at Ye Chen.

“I wouldn’t dare!” Ye Chen quickly shook his head.

Then, he suddenly seemed to remember something and said hurriedly to Li Ruo, “Xiao Ruo, I have a favor to ask you.

I’m planning to start a security company, but I’m not familiar with some of the processes and procedures.

Can you give me some guidance?”

“Um…” Li Ruo blinked, then called Lin Ziwen in.

To talk about these procedures, maybe Li Ruo really didn’t know, but as Li Ruo’s top assistant, Lin Ziwen probably knew everything.

Hearing Ye Chen’s request, Lin Ziwen smiled faintly and said, “Ye Chen, leave this to me.

But, you’ll have to pay me a salary!”

“No problem!” Ye Chen grinned.

“Ye Chen, why do you want to start a security company?” Li Ruo asked curiously, “Tianya Group has a security department.

If you start a security company, I’m thinking of dissolving that department and outsourcing all of Tianya Group’s security services to you.

How about that?”

Li Ruo intended to help Ye Chen, considering Tianya Group’s large demand for security.

Just Tianya Group’s security business alone could probably sustain Ye Chen’s company.

But Ye Chen immediately shook his head and said, “No, if you dissolve the security department, those security guards at Tianya Group will hate me to death.

Li Tieniu is a really good guard; I think you should keep them.

Dismissing them is not nice.”

“I could transfer all those guards to you!” Li Ruo said with a smile.

“That’s true!” Ye Chen was taken aback but immediately shook his head, saying, “Let’s wait until my company is established.”

“Alright!” Li Ruo nodded.

Lin Ziwen was naturally very invested in this matter, but establishing a security company indeed required a lot of documentation to be reviewed.

Even with Tianya Group backing it and utilizing many connections, the process still moved slowly.
