The beautiful CEO falls in love with me
Chapter 97 - 97 93 91 Ye Chen Treats

97: Chapter 93 Chapter 91: Ye Chen Treats 97: Chapter 93 Chapter 91: Ye Chen Treats Ye Chen glanced at the menu a few times.

There were three versions of the menu—a Chinese one, which only had Chinese dishes; an English one, which listed Western dishes; and a Japanese one, featuring Japanese cuisine.

Truly a fusion of East and West.

“What will you all have?” Ye Chen looked at his companions.

“We…

anything goes!” Li Wen said with an awkward smile, chuckling nervously.

Honestly, she had never dined in such a fancy place before, so she felt somewhat restrained.

Qianqian appeared even more constrained than Li Wen.

Seeing how constrained they were, Ye Chen simply took over the task of ordering and swiftly ordered several Japanese dishes, along with a glass of red wine for each.

This must be one of the most popular combinations right now, Japanese food paired with red wine.

“Okay!” Ye Chen handed the menu back to the waiter, then passed a twenty-yuan note along, saying, “Please make it quick!”

“Alright!” The waiter nodded, taking Ye Chen’s note and then politely withdrew.

Liu Momo looked at Ye Chen curiously and asked, “Brother Chen, why just twenty yuan?”

“Silly, that’s the tip!” Ye Chen said with a hooked smile.

“Whenever you dine like this, especially when it includes Western dishes, you ought to give a little extra to the service staff as a show of respect for their service, understand?”

“Hehe, got it now!” Liu Momo nodded.

Everything Ye Chen did, whether it was ordering Japanese cuisine or explaining about tips, was new to Li Wen and Qianqian; they had never experienced such things.

Ye Chen, however, handled it all with ease, as if he had grown up in such an environment.

As a result, Li Wen and Qianqian’s impressions of Ye Chen greatly improved.

Soon, the banquet waiter rolled in the cart, which was loaded with various delicate dishes.

Several large, boat-shaped dishes were served, one for each person, with Ye Chen’s being shaped like a dragon boat.

In the middle of the vessel were various Japanese dishes—rice balls, raw fish, fish roe…

“Wow!

It’s so beautiful!” Liu Momo suddenly exclaimed.

Girls always find it hard to resist such beautiful things, and they couldn’t help but exclaim in awe at the sight of the spread on the table, whether it was Liu Momo, Li Wen, or Qianqian.

They had never eaten Japanese cuisine before; this was their first time.

“Okay, let’s dig in!” Ye Chen chuckled, then clapped his hands and said, “Don’t be shy, have big bites!”

With that, Ye Chen immediately picked up some raw fish and rice balls with his chopsticks and stuffed them into his mouth, chewing heartily.

The three girls also started eagerly eating the dishes.

Being their first time, it naturally tasted very refreshing.

…

“Wow, I’m so full!” Liu Momo sat next to Ye Chen, grabbed his hand and placed it on her abdomen, saying, “Brother Chen, am I round now?”

“Not round enough!” Ye Chen shook his head.

“Hmph, if I were any rounder, I would be fat!” Liu Momo hummed lightly.

She blushed and playfully moved Ye Chen’s hand slightly downward.

Ye Chen was taken aback and quickly let go of Liu Momo’s hand, causing her to immediately glare at him.

Ye Chen smiled awkwardly and quickly asked, “Li Wen, Qianqian, are you full too?”

“There’s never been a time we’ve been fuller!” the two replied simultaneously.

Li Wen looked at Ye Chen curiously and asked, “Big brother Ye Chen, what do you do for a living?”

“Me?” Ye Chen chuckled.

“I used to be a bodyguard, then I became a sales manager, but now I’m probably going to be unemployed!”

“What?

Why?” Liu Momo immediately asked.

“No reason, just some misunderstandings with the company’s CEO!” Ye Chen smiled lightly.

“Then…

Brother Chen, what are you planning to do next?” Liu Momo quickly asked.

“Just whatever, really.

These days, Zhi Xiao and I have been setting up that hotpot place in University City, planning to renovate it and then explore setting up…

other projects!” Ye Chen subtly implied.

If he mentioned starting a casino, he didn’t know how Little Ni would worry about him.

Several listeners sighed after hearing it.

Ye Chen beckoned the waiter over, intending to settle the bill and leave.

The waiter handed the bill to Ye Chen with both hands and said, “Sir, the total is sixteen hundred.”

The girls immediately widened their eyes.

Sixteen hundred for just a meal?

Were they eating gold?

Liu Momo blinked her eyes and watched as Ye Chen took out his UnionPay card and said, “Charge it!”

“Sure!” The waiter immediately brought in the wireless payment terminal.

Everyone watched as a swipe took away sixteen hundred.

Several girls shook their heads and sighed.

Sixteen hundred, compared to their monthly living allowance of eight hundred, was equivalent to two months’ expenses.

Just for a meal, gone like that.

Liu Momo felt particularly pained, but at least it satisfied their pride.

She was holding Ye Chen’s arm and whispered, “Brother Chen, you swiped so much; will you have enough money?

You’re about to be unemployed, so…

should I lend you my card first?”

“Silly!” Ye Chen was moved by Liu Momo’s tenderness, such a little girl, why could she always touch that cord in his heart?

He almost cried.

Ye Chen pinched Liu Momo’s delicate nose and said, “Are you still worried about Brother Chen running out of money?

Don’t worry about it; if one day Brother Chen really needs money, I’ll ask you for it!”

“Heehee, alright.” Liu Momo immediately nodded, looking like a pure elf isolated from the world.

After bidding farewell to Liu Momo and the others, Ye Chen received a phone call from the company.

Li Ruo spent the morning in her office in a daze, constantly recalling the scene from the morning.

All of her privacy had been utterly exposed by that bastard, and she despised him for it.

Yet, she didn’t understand where this hatred stemmed from.

All she knew was that it felt as if the most precious thing had been taken by that man.

Her innocence, her chastity, all mercilessly taken.

After sitting for a morning, Li Ruo seemed to clear her thoughts.

Thinking back to the morning, Ye Chen didn’t seem to purposefully intrude.

When he came in, his expression was blurry, so he might not have intended to peek.

But in his muddled state, how could he have…

Li Ruo’s cheeks flushed again at the thought.

Perhaps he also thought to use the bathroom, and it was her own carelessness for not locking the door that led to the mishap.

“Ziwen, has Ye Chen arrived at the office yet?” Li Ruo asked again.

“Mr.

Li, Ye Chen hasn’t arrived yet!” Lin Ziwen hastily replied, looking at Li Ruo and saying, “I called him several times, but his phone was off!”

“Keep calling until he turns it on!” Li Ruo clenched her teeth.

“Yes…” Lin Ziwen nodded hastily and then grasped the phone and redialed Ye Chen’s number.

This time, the call connected immediately, and she looked at Li Ruo in bewilderment, saying, “Mr.

Li, it…

it’s connecting!”

Li Ruo swiftly grabbed the phone from Lin Ziwen’s hand.

From the other end came Ye Chen’s low voice, “Hello, is this Li Ruo?”

Hearing this voice, for some reason, Li Ruo felt an inexplicable surge of sadness and she shouted, “Ye Chen, you bastard, why aren’t you at work?”

“I…” Ye Chen was startled and didn’t know how to explain.

“If you don’t come to the office, I will fire you,” Li Ruo said indignantly.

“Mr.

Li, I’ll come in the afternoon,” Ye Chen said in a quiet voice, filled with guilt toward Li Ruo.

“Hmph, come to my office first thing when you arrive!” Li Ruo gritted her teeth and then hung up the phone in a huff.

Hanging up brought her immense satisfaction, as though she had slapped Ye Chen hard.

But after the call, Li Ruo felt as if she had lost something within herself.

Was it the soul?

Or was it something important she wore?

Lin Ziwen watched Li Ruo, knowing there must have been some misunderstanding between Ye Chen and Li Ruo that led to this.

Lin Ziwen shook her head helplessly, understanding through Li Ruo’s tearful appearance that perhaps, Mr.

Li had fallen for Ye Chen.

Alas… A destined calamity; could a relationship between a security guard and the top executive of a company truly work out?

Lin Ziwen gave a cold smile.

…

Ye Chen walked aimlessly on the street, the walk from Jianghuai University to Tianya Group taking at least half an hour.

Step by step, he headed toward Tianya Group.

His guilt seemed to lessen gradually.

Upon entering Tianya Group, Little Mei greeted him, but Ye Chen didn’t respond and turned to enter the elevator.

In the elevator was another little beauty who had just graduated and joined Tianya Group.

With a nice figure and good looks, she greeted Ye Chen, a well-known person in the company, with respect.

Ye Chen nodded slightly in response, and Little Beauty clutched a box of milk.
