The beautiful CEO falls in love with me
Chapter 409 - 409 396 Playing Dumb

409: Chapter 396: Playing Dumb 409: Chapter 396: Playing Dumb At eight in the morning, everything was finally settled.

The Heavenly Reversal Gang exchanged Qiao Si with their counterparts and left the bar ecstatically.

Although the members of the Qiao Gang were furious, no one dared to cause trouble.

The power of the Heavenly Reversal Gang was well known to them, and besides, their own men were already exhausted.

Even if they wanted to fight, they would have to wait until their men recovered and their scattered forces regrouped.

Thus, the Qiao Gang could only watch helplessly as the more than three hundred members of the Heavenly Reversal Gang left cheerfully.

Ye Chen held a large number of property contracts and agreements sent by the Qiao Gang.

These items were all worth money, and Ye Chen handed them all to Feng Zhixiao, saying, “Don’t rest just yet, it looks like you can’t sleep anyway.

Take these documents and take over those bars and the entertainment city!”

“Alrighty!” Feng Zhixiao was thrilled, clutching the stack of documents and excitedly running off.

Ye Chen glanced at his watch and then called Zhang Yantong.

After Zhang Yantong got home, she specifically asked for leave from her unit and then sat carefully dressing up at her vanity table.

Today was the first formal meeting with Ye Chen in half a year.

Although they had seen each other once in court before, that was for official matters, and communication wasn’t smooth.

This time, Ye Chen was visiting the provincial city.

Zhang Yantong planned to bring Ye Chen home.

“Hello, Tongtong, where are you?” As soon as Ye Chen spoke, Zhang Yantong immediately felt a blush creeping up.

This guy had a cheeky way of addressing people.

She had seen cheeky, but never this cheeky.

Fortunately, Ye Chen wasn’t standing in front of Zhang Yantong, so he couldn’t see her blushing.

Zhang Yantong replied, “You go wait for me across from the KFC on Construction Road, and park the car by the roadside!”

“Okay, hurry up!” Ye Chen nodded and then drove to Construction Road, finding the KFC and parking the car on the roadside.

He then smoked a cigarette.

Before Zhang Yantong arrived, a traffic police officer appeared instead.

The traffic police officer came over, saluted Ye Chen, and very politely said, “Sir, please show your driver’s license and vehicle registration!”

“What’s up?” Ye Chen was startled.

A salute from a traffic police officer meant they were eyeing your wallet, and Ye Chen certainly knew that!

Ordinarily, Ye Chen would just drive away, regardless of the traffic police.

But, thinking he had to wait for Zhang Yantong, he had no choice but to confront the police.

“You’ve parked illegally and didn’t engage your hazard lights, so according to relevant laws, you must accept a penalty!” The traffic police officer was very serious.

“Oh, I’ve just stopped for a moment and it’s illegal already?” Ye Chen grinned and said, “Buddy, you’re eyeing the money in my pocket, aren’t you?

How about I give you two hundred yuan to show my good intention?”

Saying this, Ye Chen immediately pulled out two hundred yuan from his pocket.

However, the traffic police officer seemed not to be swayed and still saluted Ye Chen, saying, “Sir, please present your vehicle and driving documents!

Accept our penalty!”

“Damn, you’re really going head-to-head with me, do you know who I am?

I’m telling you, I know your leaders!” Ye Chen grimly set his face.

He wasn’t a second-generation official or rich, but he could still bluff.

Sometimes, bluffing is quite useful, especially on a first meeting.

It’s said there are three types of people in this world.

First, those who are genuinely awesome; second, those who pretend to be awesome; and third, those who are fools.

Awesome people don’t care whether they walk or drive; pretenders make sure to drive BMWs; fools pave their way with beauties.

You only realize the first type of person is awesome after getting to know them slowly; with the second type, you discover they were just pretending after getting to know them better.

The fool, you know as soon as you meet them.

Of the three types, Ye Chen was supposed to be the first, but that moment he was acting like the second type and was heading towards becoming the third type.

“Knowing the leader is useless!” The little traffic cop had the demeanor of Xu Sanduo from the past.

Stubborn, obsessed, yet righteous.

He knew Ye Chen’s car was an Infiniti, but he adamantly refused to let him go.

Just then, amidst the standoff, Zhang Yantong finally arrived.

As soon as Ye Chen saw Zhang Yantong arrive, he immediately complained, “Director Zhang, look, it was you who made me park here, and now here I am caught by the traffic police comrade.

It’s up to you to handle it!”

Zhang Yantong was startled, looked at the young traffic officer, who seemed familiar, then smiled and said, “Comrade traffic officer, this isn’t a violation, is it?”

“This…” Knowing Zhang Yantong as the prettiest girl in the Ministry of Public Security, how could the traffic officer not know her?

The Ministry of Public Security and the traffic police department were under the same system.

Communication between the two was very close.

Zhang Yantong’s beauty was well-known not only in the Ministry of Public Security but also among the traffic police.

Many people rushed to the Ministry for their affairs.

The traffic policeman hurriedly shook his head, saying, “No, no, no violation.”

“That’s fine then!” Zhang Yantong gave a faint smile and winked at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen was instantly confounded.

Geez, the same person, but why such a big difference?

Even the traffic police were treating people differently.

Though Ye Chen complained internally, he could only helplessly get into the car.

He asked helplessly, “Where to now?”

“To the City Committee Office!” Zhang Yantong smiled.

“Alrighty, get comfortable!” Ye Chen nodded, then under Zhang Yantong’s direction, speeded towards the City Committee Office, very rapidly.

The economy of Tongzhou City was indeed much better than that of Jianghuai City, with skyscrapers everywhere, and luxury cars frequenting the streets.

No matter where he went, the streets were very clean, much better than in Jianghuai City.

Soon, the car arrived at the City Committee Office.

The two got out of the car, Zhang Yantong held a small bag, humming a tune, Ye Chen curiously asked, “Tongtong, what are we doing here?

You wouldn’t be bringing me to create trouble, would you?”

“Idiot, who said that coming to the City Committee Office means we’re here to cause trouble?” Zhang Yantong gave Ye Chen a glare.

Ye Chen grinned and said, “Can’t help it, used to causing trouble, so whenever I see the words ‘people’s government,’ it feels like we’re here to cause trouble.

Hehe…”

“Idiot!” Zhang Yantong snorted lightly and then said, “Let me tell you, we’re going to my house today.

Humph.”

“Ah?!” Ye Chen was startled and hurriedly asked, “Are your mom and dad at home?”

“My dad is home, my mom is in Beijing!” Zhang Yantong grinned and said, “What?

You’re not getting cold feet, are you?”

“Damn, I’m not scared!” Ye Chen immediately shook his head and said, “But, it’s my first visit and I didn’t bring any gifts.

Isn’t that a bit inappropriate?”

“It’s fine, my dad doesn’t care about that!” Zhang Yantong smiled.

Then, Zhang Yantong, arm in arm with Ye Chen, walked inside the City Committee Office.

The security guard at the gate knew Zhang Yantong, so he did not stop them.

They easily entered the City Committee Office, and Zhang Yantong’s home was in the first high-rise building in the complex, an elevator building with a total of twenty-five floors, and her home was on the twenty-third floor.

As they entered the building, the elevator slowly ascended.

“Are you nervous?” Zhang Yantong asked with a grin.

“Ouch, how can I not be nervous?

Meeting my future father-in-law for the first time…” Ye Chen hadn’t finished speaking when Zhang Yantong immediately raised her hand and smacked it onto Ye Chen’s shoulder, slightly annoyed, she said, “You’re asking for a beating, talking nonsense!”

“Haha, I’m just telling it like it is!” Ye Chen burst into laughter.

Soon, the elevator reached the twenty-third floor.

Zhang Yantong’s apartment was the biggest on this level, with an area of one hundred and sixty square meters, a layout of five bedrooms, two living rooms, and two bathrooms.

Zhang Yantong opened the front door; the interior decoration was still quite new.

The floor was beige, matching with the living room curtains, blending into a unified aesthetic.

Just as Ye Chen entered and was curiously looking around, a middle-aged man holding a newspaper and wearing glasses came out laughing, “Tongtong, you’re back?”

“Ah, Dad, how come you appear out of nowhere, you scared me!” Zhang Yantong was a bit nervous.

Although she had agreed earlier to bring Ye Chen home, she didn’t quite know how to explain her relationship with Ye Chen to her dad.

Zhang Yantong quickly blushed and said, “Dad, this is my friend from Jianghuai City.

His name is Ye Chen!”

“Haha, Ye Chen, I know you!” Zhang Kaiguo laughed heartily.

“Uncle, you…

really have a good eye!” Ye Chen quickly went forward to shake hands with Zhang Kaiguo and offered him a cigarette.

Zhang Kaiguo unceremoniously accepted it and sat down with Ye Chen on the living room sofa.

Ye Chen hurriedly asked, “Uncle, remembering me is truly an honor!”

“You, with all the things you’ve done, it’d be hard for people not to know you!” Zhang Kaiguo sighed, not sure if it was a compliment or a slight.

However, Zhang Kaiguo then laughed and said, “Some things, you did them just right.

Hahaha…”

“Uh…

Uncle, can you not speak in half-sentences?” Ye Chen awkwardly said, “I haven’t studied much, afraid I might not grasp such profound meanings!”

“You, don’t play dumb with me!” Zhang Kaiguo knitted his brows and said, “Zhang Dadan, Mr.

Crown Prince, Yan Bu’er, beating those guys was good.

These social tumors, they would become a problem sooner or later.

Jianghuai City is lucky you managed to get rid of them one by one!”

“Hehe, Uncle, is there more to it?

My Heavenly Reversal Gang wouldn’t also be considered a social tumor, would it?” Ye Chen grinned.

“This Heavenly Reversal Gang of yours, I’m not sure what to say for a while!” Zhang Kaiguo shook his head helplessly and said, “But the existence of the Heavenly Reversal Gang does more good than harm.

Keep it up and don’t steer the Heavenly Reversal Gang in the wrong direction.

Currently, Heavenly Reversal Gang is not involved in gambling or drugs.

It’s a good seedling.

I hope it stays that way.”

“Don’t worry, Secretary Zhang, I’ll keep that in mind!” Ye Chen nodded.
