The beautiful CEO falls in love with me
Chapter 331 - 331 320 317 Aunt Is Coming

331: Chapter 320 Chapter 317: Aunt Is Coming 331: Chapter 320 Chapter 317: Aunt Is Coming Saturday morning, at the crack of dawn, Ye Chen received a call that left him utterly baffled.

Since when did Li Ruo call people at 6 in the morning, especially when it was still pitch-black outside?

Ye Chen picked up the phone and groggily said, “Mr.

Li, what’s up?

You really gonna rob me of my sleep?”

“My aunt’s here!” Li Ruo whispered urgently on the other end of the line: “She wants to meet you!”

“What?!” Ye Chen exclaimed, quickly crawling out of bed then darting into the bathroom to ask, “What’s really going on?

Since when did you suddenly have an aunt?”

“Exactly!” Li Ruo asserted gravely: “My aunt even brought me a suitor, insisting I date him.

I can’t stand him.

You need to come over quickly and deal with this.

I’ve already told my aunt about our relationship, so you’d better put on a good show!”

“Oh, shit!” Ye Chen was frustrated.

He hastily said, “She won’t give me a hard time, will she?

Also, what does your aunt do?”

“She definitely will give you a hard time.

Look, my aunt is getting up; I have to hang up.

Get to villa No.1 before nine in the morning!” After Li Ruo finished instructing him, she hung up at once, and Ye Chen was left holding the phone, listening to the busy tone echoing from the other end.

He plopped down onto the toilet seat, scratching his head, noticing it was still fairly dark outside.

It was February already; early spring had arrived, but not the beginning of the springtime, so at six in the morning, it was dark indeed.

Scratching his head, Ye Chen began to get ready for the day.

Liu Momo was still in deep slumber, hugging Ye Chen all night long, asking him to sing songs and lull her to sleep.

It was not without great effort that she finally fell asleep, and then later, she cried because she missed her mother.

Ye Chen, having no choice, had to soothe her like a child to get her back to sleep, wondering just how many times this little girl must cry at night when staying at school.

After getting out of bed, Ye Chen showered, washed his hair, then shaved.

The morning rush surprisingly took him until after seven.

He threw his clothes into the washing machine along with Liu Momo’s, and since there was time to spare, decided to lessen the burden for the young lady and started the laundry.

While the clothes were washing, he went downstairs and bought two breakfasts: the traditional Chinese breakfast of youtiao, baozi, and soy milk.

However, at home, there was stored pure milk, specially for Liu Momo to drink.

Girls who drink milk have fairer skin and a better complexion.

Every week when he took Liu Momo to school, he had to bring some Telunsu.

When he returned, Liu Momo had already woken up.

Wearing her cartoon pajamas with a lopsided hat, her eyes still bleary, she looked at Ye Chen and said, “Morning, Brother Chen!”

“Morning, Momo, hurry up and brush your teeth, wash your face, and eat breakfast!” Ye Chen reminded her.

“Brother Chen, aren’t you supposed to sleep in on weekends?” Liu Momo asked curiously.

“Sigh, today I have something to deal with, and it’s a nuisance, so no sleeping in for me,” Ye Chen said helplessly.

Liu Momo became even more curious and edged closer, grinning as she probed, “What is it that you have to deal with?

Can’t you tell me?

Maybe I could come up with some clever plans for Brother Chen!”

“No, it’s not necessary.

There’s no one who can help me with this!” Ye Chen shook his head in resignation—it seemed that truly no one could help.

Was he supposed to bring a beauty when he went to Li Ruo’s place?

That might just drive her aunt insane.

Li Ruo already disapproved of their relationship; if he went and upset her even more, he might just end up being thrown out on the spot.

After breakfast, Ye Chen instructed Liu Momo to take out the clothes from the washing machine, spin dry them, then hang them up.

Leaving home, it was already 8:20 a.m.

The trip from Xin Hai Apartment to Jiangnan No.1 would take roughly twenty minutes, and arriving ten minutes early was a gesture of respect, especially since it was his first time meeting Xiao Ruo’s aunt, and his performance had to be impeccable.

Ye Chen dressed in a sharp black suit, his shoes shined, and hair gelled.

He even applied some moisturizer to his face.

Shit, he finally got himself looking like a man-neither-man-nor-ghost.

Upon reaching Jiangnan No.1, the security guard at the entrance came over with a wide grin, saying, “Brother Chen, you’ve arrived?”

Tianya Group’s enterprises and units generally employed Black Water Security Company guards, so it was pretty standard for the guards—who were members of the Heavenly Reversal Gang—to recognize Ye Chen.

“How are things inside?” Ye Chen handed the little brother a cigarette.

The little brother took the cigarette with both hands, grinning, “An intimidating old lady came with a chubby, plump little boy.

These two seem to have high status; the others, well, they’re just average.”

“Damn, so a whole bunch of people showed up!” Ye Chen was taken aback.

“Told you!” The guard nodded eagerly and said, “And that old lady is really fierce.

When she arrived, she even complained about my posture not fitting the high standard of this fancy residential area!”

“Damn, she even cares about that?

Have her come and be a security guard at the gate!” Ye Chen exclaimed in exasperation.

“Ha, Brother Chen, stop joking!” The guard laughed off the idea.

Calling that old lady to stand guard?

That’d be asking for trouble.

“Alright, enough chit-chat, I’m heading in!” Ye Chen called out before walking inside.

The gardeners were busy with the front flower beds, and the servants bustled in and out, while a group of chattering women stood at the door, their conversation animated.

“Tsk tsk, Sister Xiao Ruo is so lucky to own such a big villa.”

“Isn’t that the truth?

Little Fatty’s got fortune smiling on him.”

“Pfft, as if Little Fatty could ever marry Sister Xiao Ruo.”

Ye Chen felt lost in the fog, when a maid hurried over and said, “Mist…

Mr.

Ye, you’ve arrived?”

The maid almost called him young master, which was how everyone used to address him back at Shanhai Villa.

But just last night, an old nanny had arrived who seemed very strict, and she kept insisting on introducing girlfriends to Li Ruo and demanded that the servants call a certain fatty ‘young master.’ The maids didn’t dare to disobey; after all, they were paid by the Li Family and had to listen to its members.

“Where’s Li Ruo?” Ye Chen asked.

Those frivolous women turned their heads curiously to look at Ye Chen, abuzz with interest in him.

The maid quickly said, “Miss is inside, I’ll show you in!”

“Are you Ye Chen?” a woman dressed in purple blocked Ye Chen’s path.

“That’s right, I am,” Ye Chen replied, neither haughty nor humble.

“You look so average, and you’re of average height.

How could Sister Xiao Ruo fall for you?” the woman curiously appraised Ye Chen.

Ye Chen was taken aback and quickly asked, “May I inquire, miss, do you have a boyfriend?”

“Hehe, of course I do, and you stand no chance!” The woman in purple giggled behind her hand.

“Your chest is pretty flat, and your butt isn’t perky.

How could your boyfriend fancy you?” Ye Chen grinned, then followed the maid further inside.

The woman in purple was thoroughly mocked by Ye Chen and became furiously enraged, pointing at Ye Chen’s retreating back and shouting, “Bastard, you bastard, I’m going to tell Sister Xiao Ruo on you!”

Ye Chen followed the maid into the hall, which was filled with a peaceful quiet.

On the living room sofas sat several people, looking quite proper.

In the center was an old lady with gray-white hair, wearing a dark golden coat with a stern expression, as if someone owed her millions.

Beside the Old Madam sat a very plump man who looked to be around 5’9″ yet must have weighed at least 180 pounds.

Here was this chubby man who dared to pursue Xiao Ruo, like a typical toad lusting after a swan’s flesh.

The maid walked in respectfully and then said softly, “Madam, miss, Mr.

Ye has arrived!”

With that remark, everyone’s eyes opened, and they all turned their gazes straight toward Ye Chen.

The Old Madam’s gaze was the most piercing, filled with skepticism and anger when looking at Ye Chen.

Little Fatty was curiously sizing up Ye Chen, clutching a bag of chips.

As Ye Chen entered, Little Fatty immediately dropped the chips on the table, wiped his hands on his pants, got up from the sofa, and waddled over, asking, “Are you Ye Chen?”

“Yes, I am.

And who might you be?” Ye Chen asked, puzzled.

“Oh, I’m Liu Baobao,” the chubby man blinked, grinning broadly.

“I am Li Ruo’s fiancé.”

Pfft…

Ye Chen almost burst out laughing.

Shit, a pure man called Liu Baobao, shit, seems like whether for men or women he’s just Baobao.

Damn, there goes all his dignity.

With such an embarrassing name, Ye Chen struggled not to laugh outright as he patted Fatty Liu on the shoulder and said, “Brother, if you want to be Xiao Ruo’s fiancé, you might need to change your name first!”

“Why?” Liu Baobao looked startled, confused, “Marrying Li Ruo has nothing to do with my name, right?

Your name is the one that’s not good.

If we go by the five elements—wood, fire, earth, metal, water—your name lacks wood which opposes life, meaning you’ll face several calamities in life.

You’re the one who should be changing names!”

“Uh…” Ye Chen paused, smiling, “Are you in feng shui studies?”

“No, I graduated with a Ph.D.

in Psychology from Harvard University in the United States and now run a psychology studio in Beijing!” Liu Baobao smiled broadly as he said, “Brother, you seem to be holding back something in your eyes?

Don’t look at me like that.

You should relax, more relaxed…”
