The beautiful CEO falls in love with me

Chapter 659: Chapter 640:

In a flash, the grand battle between the two seemed to transform into a contest, a competition of strength and will. Li Ruo struggled with all her might, while Ye Chen attacked as fiercely as ever. Love can sometimes be selfish; but at other times, it is selfless.

Li Ruo wanted to be selfish but found that no matter what, she couldn’t manage it. During her long time away from Jianghuai City, she tried to forget Ye Chen but found the thought of him growing stronger the more she tried, turning forgetfulness into a luxurious wish. Since seeing Ye Chen on the streets of New York, Li Ruo swore she wouldn’t forget him no matter how many women he had in his life—she just needed to be the most important woman in his heart.

The fierce battle seemed to draw to a close as Li Ruo’s thoughts floated away. Ye Chen also saw that Li Ruo was exhausted, so the end was somewhat rushed. At the climax, Ye Chen withdrew and the essence of life traced a beautiful arc through the air, splattering directly onto Li Ruo’s face from below.

"Ah, you bastard, what is this!" Li Ruo exclaimed immediately, saying, "It’s not acid, is it? Are you trying to disfigure me!"

"Xiao Ruo, you are wrong there!" Ye Chen grinned and wiped some off from Li Ruo’s chest, then smeared it onto her face, saying, "This stuff is for beautifying, not ruining!"

"Nonsense, it’s fishy and disgusting, so gross!" Li Ruo couldn’t stand it and ran frantically toward the bathroom. Soon, a rush of water could be heard from inside. Ye Chen lay back leisurely at the head of the bed, smoking. Watching the swirls of smoke, Ye Chen felt a sense of happiness spreading within him.

When Li Ruo came out wrapped in a bath towel, her long, white legs and high, proud chest told Ye Chen of her extreme beauty. Especially that face, beautiful and exquisite, it was something Ye Chen adored.

"Bastard, I will never do such bad things with you again!" Li Ruo huffed, then burrowed into the bed.

"But you also said today that I shouldn’t stay the night!" Ye Chen laughed heartily.

"Humph!" Li Ruo’s face turned red, then she pouted, "You evil little slave, how dare you bully me!"

"Ha ha, how am I still a slave, shouldn’t I be upgraded by now?" Ye Chen suddenly laughed heartily, reminded of the time when Li Ruo had coerced and tempted him into signing a slave contract. However, Ye Chen harbored no regrets, being a slave for someone he liked was right.

"Thinking of an upgrade? No way!" Li Ruo snorted, saying, "Once a slave, always a slave!"

"Ha ha..." Ye Chen burst into laughter, saying, "Then today this slave will rebel against you, his master, let’s see how you deal with it!"

With that, Ye Chen immediately pounced on Li Ruo, who shrieked, quickly covering herself with the bedding. Outside the window, the moon quietly hid behind the clouds, seemingly shy from the couple’s antics. Inside, Ye Chen and Li Ruo continued their playful banter, completely carefree. It seemed to be the happiest activity between them.

The night quietly continued. In the room, Li Ruo was already fast asleep, while Ye Chen couldn’t sleep at all. He lay on his side, quietly watching the beauty next to him. From that moment, he silently labeled her as his wife in his heart. Although they weren’t married, they considered each other as their significant other. Ye Chen gently stroked the sleeping Li Ruo, then softly laughed, "Xiao Ruo, my love!"

Ye Chen got up from the bed, dressed neatly, and flew straight out the window.

...

The next day when Li Ruo woke up, she found her pillow empty. She hurriedly searched around but found no trace of Ye Chen throughout the villa. In the doghouse downstairs, Little Yezi was still napping. Li Ruo walked over quickly and asked, "Little Yezi, where did Ye Chen go?"

"Bark, bark..." Little Yezi immediately jumped out and barked in the direction Ye Chen had left. Li Ruo frowned, noticing a cigarette butt in the doghouse. She immediately understood that Ye Chen must have left last night and snorted, "Ye Chen, you bastard, do you think this place is a public toilet? Come and go as you please!"

Meanwhile, in a hutong in Beijing, a man holding a black suitcase stood in an alley. This was where some big shots lived, once the residence of princes. After the liberation of China, it was all reclaimed by the state and assigned to some central officials.

Ye Chen, with a cigarette in his mouth, approached Elder Pang’s residence. At the entrance, two guards armed with Type 95 rifles stood guard.

"Stop, who goes there!" the guards immediately blocked Ye Chen’s path.

"Go tell Elder Pang, Ye Chen is here!" Ye Chen glanced at the two.

The guards looked at each other, and one said, "Wait a moment, I’ll go inform him!"

Then the man hurried inside. Soon, the guard ran out again and said to Ye Chen, "Elder Pang allows you in, please come in!"

"Thanks!" Ye Chen nodded, then stepped inside.

As he walked inside, passing through a front courtyard, then through the building’s courtyard, he entered the residential area. By a bridge, a soldier escorted Ye Chen deep inside until they reached Elder Pang’s study. The soldier said to Ye Chen, "Mr. Ye, go inside, Elder Pang is in there!"

"Okay," Ye Chen nodded.

After the soldier left, just as Ye Chen was about to push the door open, an aged voice came from within, "Ye Chen, come in!"

Ye Chen immediately pushed the door open. Elder Pang was sitting in an armchair reading. Hearing the noise, he promptly set the book on the desk and stood up, turning to look at Ye Chen. Suddenly, Ye Chen noticed that Elder Pang had aged significantly over this period. Ye Chen smiled and said, "Elder Pang, how have you been lately?"

"You, young man, how do you think I have been?" Elder Pang’s face was stern.

"Ah, I heard about the domestic issues. I don’t blame you for the Heavenly Reversal Gang’s problems!" Ye Chen sighed.

"You reckless child, how can you not blame me?" Elder Pang glared at Ye Chen and said, "If you didn’t blame me, why the hell haven’t you sought me out for so long? Not only that, but you also pulled the entire Heavenly Reversal Gang’s power out of the country?"

Ye Chen immediately smiled wryly. In fact, when he first heard about these issues, he was indeed very angry. The first one he was angry with was Elder Pang. With Elder Pang’s authority, couldn’t even a small gang like the Heavenly Reversal Gang be protected? However, later Ye Chen heard that Elder Pang had retired because of this. Gradually, the resentment in his heart lessened significantly, especially after last night, when a sense of happiness enveloped his heart, allowing him to completely rethink some things.

"Yes, it was my mistake," Ye Chen said resignedly.

"No, you’re not wrong, your move was excellent!" Elder Pang revealed a smile.

"How so?" Ye Chen was taken aback.

"Let the Ou transport of the Yang Family handle the domestic issues now. I’d like to see what they can come up with!" Elder Pang snorted coldly and continued, "The current domestic and international situation is severe, and instead of considering the bigger picture, they are sabotaging things domestically. When the Church Court arrives, I want to see what they can use to resist!"

"I came today to discuss this matter with you," Ye Chen smiled.

"Kid, don’t tell me your trip to the United States has led to some progress?" Elder Pang showed a cryptic smile.

"Not just that..." Ye Chen immediately divulged all about his cooperation with Obama. Elder Pang’s expression grew more solemn as he listened, and after Ye Chen finished, Elder Pang pondered for over a minute before leisurely saying, "Kid, you’re playing a risky game!"

"I understand," Ye Chen nodded and said, "But if we don’t do this, the Rothschild family will also have to confront the Church Court and deal with the two Hidden Families. If we have the support of the US Government, I think we can spread out their firepower!"

"And what about Japan..." Elder Pang hurriedly asked.

"Hehe, you don’t have to worry about that one. The Zhu Group and the Japanese Government have always been united. This time, when I went to Japan, I already sabotaged the cooperation between the Zhu Group and the Church Court!" Ye Chen revealed an excited smile.

"Good lad!" Elder Pang immediately laughed with relief. "Have you considered everything?"

"Of course, could your disciple be that bad?" Ye Chen patted his chest proudly.

"Ah, if only I truly had a disciple like you!" Elder Pang smiled helplessly and said, "If only!"

"If only what?" Ye Chen laughed, "Aren’t you my grandfather?"

"Do you truly acknowledge me as your grandfather?" There was excitement in Elder Pang’s eyes.

"Of course, I have always regarded you as my grandfather!" Ye Chen nodded.

"Good!" Elder Pang, overwhelmed with excitement, swiftly cried out, "Guard, prepare a wine banquet immediately, I want to drink with Ye Chen until we’re both drunk!"

"Yes!" The guard at the door immediately responded and then turned to leave.
