Chapter 713: Chapter 691:

After quite some time, Ye Chen finally finished his attack, leaving all the essence inside Li Ruo, who swallowed it all without reserve. She was panting and lying on the edge of the bed, allowing Ye Chen to add a couple more strikes at the end, the slapping noise making Li Ruo feel somewhat overwhelmed.

"Jerk, are you still going at it!" Li Ruo couldn’t help but glare at him.

"Hehe, still not satisfied, huh!" Ye Chen laughed heartily.

The two made a commotion for a while, then they cleaned up and got dressed before heading outside. By then, they were both famished. Having skipped dinner, they had started their procreation exercise. And this physical activity had unexpectedly lasted over forty minutes, needless to mention the energy it drained.

Gurgle...

Ye Chen’s stomach began to rebel, and Li Ruo laughingly said, "Hehe, your stomach is growling!"

"Hungry, and it’s all because of you!" Ye Chen glanced at Li Ruo, then said, "I’ve fed you, but now I’m starving!"

"What do you mean ’fed me’? I’m very hungry too!" Li Ruo glared back discontentedly.

"Alright, let’s go eat!" Ye Chen hurriedly suggested.

The two rushed out and drove off. They chose a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown and ordered a table full of dishes. Ye Chen fully displayed his ability to eat, nearly cleaning out the table of dishes.

"Glutton!" Li Ruo looked at him discontentedly, thankful that her appetite wasn’t big and a little was enough to fill her up.

Ye Chen, biting on a toothpick, then said with a smile, "I’ve eaten and drunk to my fill and now I want more!"

"Hmph, keep dreaming!" Li Ruo huffed.

Just then, a black-skinned woman with a curvaceous figure and very voluptuous, walked in from the door. She walked straight toward Ye Chen, casting him flirty glances, immediately rousing Li Ruo’s suspicions. Li Ruo turned her head to look at Ye Chen, who immediately looked up at the ceiling as if nothing had happened.

Unexpectedly, the woman Heiniu sat down beside Ye Chen and said with a smile, "Mr. Ye, hello, do you still remember me?"

"Uh..." Ye Chen was stunned and asked in amazement, "You... who are you?"

"Hehe, you can’t really have forgotten me, right?" Heiniu sat down beside Ye Chen.

"This..." Ye Chen was dumbfounded, but Li Ruo was immediately incensed, puffing her cheeks and glaring. Not knowing what to do, Ye Chen shifted uncomfortably and said awkwardly, "I... you must be mistaken."

"No, Mr. Ye, I could never forget you!" Heiniu moved closer again, displaying her white teeth and said, "Last time at the underground boxing ring, I already witnessed Mr. Ye’s elegance. I have the utmost admiration for Mr. Ye, and besides, haven’t we had a good relationship privately?"

"Hmph!" Unable to watch any longer, Li Ruo huffed loudly. Ye Chen quickly pushed Heiniu away and said, "Don’t talk nonsense, I don’t have any relationship with you!"

"Ye Chen, how could you say that? Didn’t you say all was well just the other night?" Heiniu seemed to have deliberately clung to Ye Chen. This made Li Ruo intolerable, who immediately stood up with a frosty face and said, "You two continue chatting, I have things to do, I’m leaving!"

After saying that, Li Ruo immediately turned and walked away. Ye Chen was startled and quickly followed her, shaking off Heiniu’s hand trying to grab his arm and sternly said, "What are you doing, careful I sue you for sexual harassment!"

After Ye Chen spoke, he immediately chased after Li Ruo.

Heiniu retracted her hand and huffed coldly, "Humph, never seen such a petty man. I just wanted to tell you that I admire you as a woman, humph, besides, it’s not like someone else paid me to come here, otherwise, I wouldn’t have come!"

Just as Ye Chen ran out, several desolate figures entered through the door and quickly ran to Heiniu’s side, asking, "Hey, how did it go? Did you clarify the relationship between you and Ye Chen?"

"Huh?" Heiniu was taken aback and quickly said, "Weren’t you the one who told me to ruin their relationship? Why would it be about clarifying things?"

"Damn it, damn it!" Liu the Tyrant suddenly felt as if the sky and earth were spinning. English expressions were so damn tricky – a single word could change the entire meaning, and now he felt like dying. Beside him, Feng Zhixiao said helplessly, "It seems we’re accidentally making things worse again. What should we do?"

"Hell, hurry up and explain things to Sister-in-law!" Liu the Tyrant immediately stood up. Feng Zhixiao nodded and then ran out quickly.

At that moment, Ye Chen had already caught up with Li Ruo and was holding her arm, continuously trying to explain. However, Li Ruo just wouldn’t listen to Ye Chen’s explanations, the facts were right in front of her. Initially, Li Ruo didn’t believe what Liu the Tyrant said, but now that someone had come knocking at their door, how could she not believe it?

"Go back to your Black girlfriend!" Li Ruo angrily glared at Ye Chen.

"Xiao Ruo, you have to believe me, I really don’t know her, I don’t even know her name!" Ye Chen said furiously.

"Brother Chen, her name is Aislin!" Liu the Tyrant’s voice came through.

"Oh, Aislin!" Ye Chen nodded. Then, he immediately froze and asked in astonishment, "Uh... Aislin, who is she? I don’t know her!"

"Jerk, you’re still pretending? How long do you plan to keep this up?" Li Ruo angrily said.

"I... I really don’t know her!" Ye Chen felt like he couldn’t clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River. From the side, Liu the Tyrant morosely added, "Brother Chen, she’s the chick from the White Alliance’s underground betting rings, the one placing bets..."

"Oh, someone from the White Alliance?" Ye Chen seemed to remember something, but he suddenly realized that he truly had no connection with Aislin. However, Li Ruo had completely lost all faith in Ye Chen’s words, and irritated, she turned her head and walked away. Ye Chen quickly followed her again, but despite his earnest explanations, Li Ruo just wouldn’t believe him. Finally, Li Ruo got into a taxi and left Chinatown.

Ye Chen stood alone on the street, feeling extremely annoyed. The feeling of not being trusted felt as if everything he did was futile. Liu the Tyrant sheepishly came over, then hung his head and said, "Brother Chen, I was wrong!"

"What did you do wrong?" Ye Chen squinted his eyes.

"I... I shouldn’t have spouted nonsense, shouldn’t have messed around, shouldn’t have..." Liu the Tyrant blurted out everything he had done. After Ye Chen heard that, his frustration erupted and he punched Liu the Tyrant hard, knocking him to the ground, and angrily said, "Damn it, what am I supposed to do now?"

"Brother Chen, I... I didn’t know Sister-in-law would mistrust you so much!" Liu the Tyrant said helplessly.

"Sigh, you should have found a Yellow girl, why’d you get a Black girl involved? Don’t you know that Mr. Li dislikes races other than the Yellow Race the most?" Ye Chen glared at Liu the Tyrant, then clenched his teeth and said, "Next time, remember to get a Yellow-skinned beauty, not someone so scary!"

After saying that, Ye Chen turned and left the scene. Liu the Tyrant and Feng Zhi Xiao were left standing there, Liu the Tyrant turned to Feng Zhi Xiao with a stunned look and asked, "Zhi Xiao, I didn’t hear him wrong, did I? Brother Chen actually wants a Yellow-skinned beauty?"

"Um, you heard right," replied Feng Zhi Xiao with a nod.

"Shit, then what are we waiting for, let’s go find one right away!" Liu the Tyrant’s expression was animated. After speaking, he immediately turned and left.

...

Tianya Group finally went public on NASDAQ on May 15, officially becoming a US-based enterprise. Becoming an international big enterprise was an incredibly significant event domestically, but in the grand scheme of Wall Street, it seemed rather minuscule. However, at least this was Tianya Group’s first step toward going public in the United States, allowing them to rake in substantial capital and invest in the international market.

During that period, Li Ruo was almost unbearably busy, her feet barely touching the ground. She had to oversee every major and minor issue within the company, even though she had hired two deputy CEOs from Wall Street for a hefty fee. However, the overall direction still needed to be managed by Li Ruo. She was busy in her office, while Lin Ziwen did not follow her, managing the overall situation in Jianghuai City instead.

Lin Ziwen was the only person Li Ruo trusted. With Lin Ziwen in Jianghuai City, Li Ruo could rest easy. Even if the sky were to fall, Lin Ziwen would hold it up. Thus, with Lin Ziwen there, Li Ruo had no worries.

In Jianghuai City, Lin Ziwen was busy all day. She needed to keep in constant contact with the US side, coordinating with Tianya Group’s NASDAQ listing, necessitating continual communications. Therefore, Lin Ziwen had no chance to relax; she was just as exhausted as Li Ruo.

Finally, when work was over, she could relax for a moment.

Lin Ziwen drove Li Ruo’s designated Mercedes, slowly leaving Tianya Group. She gently inserted a CD into the drive, and soothing melodies flowed from the car stereo, incredibly beautiful and moving, seemingly narrating a beautiful love story. Lin Ziwen felt helpless; at twenty-five or twenty-six, she hadn’t yet experienced even one romance. Because of her dedication to her work and career, she had devoted nearly all her time to it, which made Lin Ziwen feel very conflicted.

Experiencing a passionate romance was what Lin Ziwen needed most. She always fantasized about finding a man like Ye Chen, like Li Ruo had. Perhaps, that was the perfect situation, but some things just never seemed to go as one wished. Thus, Lin Ziwen’s love life remained perpetually on hold.

At a red light ahead, Lin Ziwen slowly applied the brakes, then stopped in front of the stop line.
