Chapter 657: Chapter 638:

"I’ve told you, I’m not into you, Mr. Zhang, can you please stop playing these childish games?" Li Ruo shrugged helplessly.

"No, you can refuse me, but you can’t deny me a chance!" Zhang Bufen walked toward Li Ruo, then boldly shouted, "Love is everyone’s right, you can’t block my love for you, you can be with Ye Chen. But, you can’t stop me from pursuing you either!"

"Boring!" Li Ruo snorted lightly, turned around, and wanted to walk away. Zhang Bufen immediately followed and blocked her way, saying, "Xiao Ruo, give me a chance, is it really that hard?"

Just as Li Ruo was about to speak, a lazy voice came through, "Geez, there really are all kinds of birds in this forest, I’ve seen shameless, but never this shameless!"

Pfft...

The girls watching all laughed, with Little Mei and Milking Girl laughing the most cheerfully. They recognized the voice, knowing it surely belonged to Ye Chen. This bastard always insulted people indirectly. It’s supposed to be the forest has all kinds of birds, how did it become about the size of the bird?

Everyone looked outside, and there was Ye Chen, walking in with a luggage bag. He threw the bag down and stood not far behind Li Ruo, leisurely pulling out a cigarette box. Just as everyone thought he was about to smoke, he surprisingly took out a piece of chewing gum and started chewing it, causing everyone to sweat.

"Ye Chen..." Li Ruo looked at him excitedly.

"Hmm, Xiao Ruo, is this bastard bothering you again?" Ye Chen smirked coldly.

"No... no!" Li Ruo shook her head quickly and said, "He’s just pestering me!"

"Hey, Zhang Bufen, you think just because you wear a uniform, you’re a soldier?" Ye Chen looked up at Zhang Bufen. Zhang Bufen had come to chase after Li Ruoke full of confidence—Ye Chen might have money and power, but he no longer had any backing, his old support having been ousted.

"Ye Chen, let me tell you, you’re just a grasshopper after autumn, not long for this world!" Zhang Bufen stared coldly at Ye Chen and said, "Look clearly at my uniform, look at my epaulettes, the moment I entered, I was a Quasi-Major."

"Oh, a Quasi-Major, huh?" Ye Chen mocked, "So... tell me, what contribution have you made for the country, for the people, Quasi-Major genius? Did you go to Chang’an Street in Beijing to clear the snow, or somewhere else to fight floods?"

"Ha ha..." Everyone laughed loudly. If clearing snow or fighting floods made one a Quasi-Major, how many would be promoted?

"You..." Knowing he couldn’t win a verbal battle with Ye Chen, Zhang Bufen simply pulled out his military ID and said, "Look clear, this is my military ID, I’ve been training in the army for more than a month, ordinary people are really not my match!"

"Oh, becoming a Quasi-Major in just over a month?" Ye Chen feigned surprise, "Tsk tsk, look at the photo on this military ID, shit, it wouldn’t be a fake for US$ 150 from the streets, would it? It’s faded!"

In fact, Ye Chen knew the military ID was real, he was just deliberately teasing Zhang Bufen. Hearing this, Zhang Bufen instantly got furious, "Ye Chen, you jerk, don’t talk sour grapes because you can’t eat them. If you dare, show me one of yours!"

Ye Chen snorted. Naturally, he didn’t have a military ID, having had it revoked after being chosen as the heir by the Rothschild family. He took out a shiny, brand-new looking medal from his pocket, just as shiny as when it was first awarded. Hooking a cold smile, Ye Chen said, "There are some things you’ll never have in your life. Know what this is?"

"August 1st Medal?!" Zhang Bufen was startled.

"Still quite smart to recognize it!" Ye Chen said coldly, "If you have the ability, try to get one!"

"Pfft, just a small medal, what’s so great about that!" Zhang Bufen scoffed, "Not just me, even a brother of mine who has less background than me got the August 1st Medal, he hangs it on his chest to show off when he’s free. Sigh, this medal isn’t worth much anymore!"

Ye Chen gave a faint smile, then very respectfully put away the medal. Li Ruo, infuriated by Zhang Bufen’s words, knew that Ye Chen used to be the team leader of the Nanjing Iron Eagle Special Forces and had earned military honors. She could not believe Zhang Bufen dared to insult him like that. Li Ruo glared at Zhang Bufen and said, "Don’t insult this precious medal with your so-called money!"

"Xiao Ruo, listen to me, my friends can all buy this medal, which means this medal is worthless." Zhang Bufen hastily looked at Li Ruo, saying, "Perhaps, his medal was also bought!"

"Shit!" Li Ruo rarely swore. Everyone was stunned, and Li Ruo sternly rebuked, "I can distrust everyone, but, I must trust Ye Chen."

"Alas, Xiao Ruo, you are blinded by him!" Zhang Bufen said helplessly.

Ye Chen scoffed nearby, tearing off all his clothes, and pounding his chest, saying, "You can insult the medal, but you cannot insult the honors on my body!"

Hisss...

Everyone immediately gasped, the densely packed wounds on Ye Chen’s back, chest, and abdomen were almost horrifying to behold. Many young women widened their eyes, Little Mei clutched onto Milking Girl tightly, saying, "Xingxing... Ye Chen... How does Ye Chen have so many wounds?"

"I... how would I know, this bastard, really trying to scare people to death!" Milking Girl was also stunned by Ye Chen’s appearance. Those densely packed wounds, some large ones, looked like long, winding centipedes. Milking Girl tightly grabbed Little Mei’s arm and said, "Sister Little Mei, why do I feel it’s so terrifying?"

"Don’t be afraid, Ye Chen is not a bad person!" Little Mei quickly comforted.

"But, he looks even scarier than a bad person!" Milking Girl said urgently.

"Ye Chen, what are you doing!" Zhang Bufen was also startled by Ye Chen, saying, "Do you think that by showing off your wounds, I will sympathize with you?"

"Let me tell you, this wound was from a mission in Myanmar; this one was from sniping number three at a base in Saudi Arabia; this one was from fighting Kun Sha; this wound..." Ye Chen cataloged the origin of every notable wound on his body. Each statement was profoundly shocking.

Everyone felt an awakening in their hearts, this was what a soldier should be, this was a true soldier. Unfortunately, soldiers like Ye Chen in the Huaxia army had become increasingly rare, instead, there were more soldiers like Zhang Bufen infiltrating the army to gild their records, splurging money to buy so-called merits, stepping up in ranks later, whereas the true heroes who performed commendable deeds were left out due to lack of connections.

"Humph, do you think that makes you great?" Zhang Bufen scoffed.

"No, I am not great because of this!" Ye Chen shook his head slightly, saying, "I just feel it unworthy for myself, unworthy for China, and I feel unworthy for our People’s Liberation Army. It is because of people like you that our armed forces have become increasingly corrupt and dark!"

"That’s right, the army has been thrown into chaos by people like you!"

"Resolutely overthrow corruption, purge the ’Rat Shit’ from the army!"

Tianya Group’s bold male employees began to boil with fervor; they were moved by Ye Chen’s glorious history, by every scar on his body and by his noble morals. On the contrary, their disdain for Zhang Bufen grew.

"Ye Chen, you’re ruthless!" Zhang Bufen gritted his teeth, glaring at Ye Chen, saying, "I want to see how you alone can change all this. I’m telling you, let nature take its course. The Heavenly Reversal Gang will never have a chance in China."

"One day, I will make you and the ones behind you kneel on the ground begging me to come back!" Ye Chen raised his right hand high, as if performing a solemn, dignified ritual. He scoffed and said, "Zhang Bufen, please remember, there are some things you cannot mess with!"

"Humph, we shall see!" Zhang Bufen scoffed forcefully, decisively leading his assistant and several little brothers away in a hurry, knowing he had been defeated again today. Zhang Bufen was greatly unwilling inside, wondering why every confrontation with Ye Chen ended without a hint of victory.

Zhang Bufen left, and Ye Chen silently dressed himself, his expression seemingly not too good. Li Ruo knew the suppression in Ye Chen’s heart; being provoked by a ne’er-do-well was a minor issue, but such a person infiltrating the nation’s army, infiltrating people’s army, was what truly worried Ye Chen. Li Ruo silently walked over, trying to coax a smile, saying, "Ye Chen, actually... you don’t need to take such people seriously!"

"Mm!" Ye Chen nodded, saying, "Indeed, I shouldn’t bother with people like this, but... alas..."
