Chapter 265: Chapter 262: Lucrative Position (Fifth Update, Subscribe Required)

Chen Fei was completely captivated by this piece of music.

The rest of my life

The wind and snow is you

The mundane is you

Poverty is also you

...

Such beautiful lyrics, such a wonderful melody.

Chen Fei felt that this beautiful music was bound to become popular.

But it seemed she’d never heard this song before.

Zhao Ying chuckled and said, "Of course you haven’t heard it. This song was written by Ye Chen for me, specifically as my phone ringtone. It has never been published online."

Chen Fei was a bit shocked upon hearing that.

Truly, talents are among the people. To compose such a good song, Ye Chen must absolutely be a songwriting genius.

Chen Fei asked, "Can the copyright of this song be sold to me?"

She loved this song too much.

"No." Ye Chen replied coldly.

"Why? I can make this song popular." Chen Fei said a bit unwillingly.

Ye Chen shook his head, "I gave this song to Wanrou, I don’t want to publish it."

Chen Fei swallowed a bellyful of dog food.

This guy, usually men greet her as if seeing a goddess.

But Ye Chen seemed completely uninterested in her from start to finish.

First, he refused to let her in the car, and now he wouldn’t sell her the copyright.

Chen Fei thought for a moment, "How about this, can you write a song for me?"

"No, I need to drive DiDi, no time." Ye Chen refused again.

"Driving a Cullinan for DiDi? What a joke?"

Lin Wanrou said from the side, "Ye Chen, I really like Sister Fei’s songs, why don’t you write one for her?"

Hearing Lin Wanrou’s words, Ye Chen finally nodded, "Alright, but one song costs six hundred thousand, and I want a third of the royalties."

Hearing Ye Chen’s price, Chen Fei hesitated.

Ye Chen’s asking price was too high, reaching the level of a top songwriter.

Chen Fei was about to release a music album, but hadn’t found a satisfactory lead song.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Fei said, "Alright, as long as you write a song I’m satisfied with, I can agree."

Ye Chen confidently said, "I’ll definitely satisfy you, all my songs are classics."

Hearing Ye Chen’s confident words, Chen Fei was stunned for a moment.

Even top singers wouldn’t have such confidence.

Ye Chen sent Chen Fei to the hotel, then drove home with Lin Wanrou.

"Wanrou, it’s been tough on you these days."

Lin Wanrou smiled softly, "Serving you doesn’t tire me at all."

Ye Chen chuckled mischievously, "Today I’ll reward you well."

Hearing Ye Chen’s words, Lin Wanrou blushed, "How are you going to reward me?"

Ye Chen picked Lin Wanrou up and threw her onto the bed.

"Now you know how I’m going to reward you!"

...

The next morning, Ye Chen finished the breakfast Lin Wanrou made and continued driving DiDi.

However, today Ye Chen was still driving his Xiali car.

A man dressed in a Hermes suit, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and with a Patek Philippe watch on his wrist, looked very lavish.

The girl started complaining as soon as she got in the car.

"Why are we so unlucky to catch a Xiali DiDi?"

The man laughed, "Darling, just suffer a bit. If my Cayenne wasn’t crashed by a delivery guy and sent for repair, we wouldn’t be in such a broke car."

"You know, when the delivery guy realized he crashed into my Cayenne, he cried so much."

"You didn’t let the delivery guy off like those fools online, did you?" the girlfriend asked.

"How could I? I made him pay me a hundred thousand. The DiDi Brother was crying seas of tears; I heard that money was what he earned in two years, planned for getting married back in the village. Haha."

Listening to the man’s arrogant laughter, Ye Chen felt it was very grating.

A hundred thousand might just be a meal or an overseas trip for this man, but it could be someone else’s future.

Ruining someone’s future and taking pleasure in it, Ye Chen found it disgusting.

The man continued bragging to his girlfriend in the front seat.

The girlfriend asked, "Darling, what do you do to be so wealthy?"

The man replied proudly, "I’m in the procurement department of the Marriott Hotel, responsible for buying food ingredients for the hotel."

The woman seemed disappointed upon hearing that.

"Ah, in procurement?"

Ye Chen was a bit surprised.

He didn’t expect this guy to be from Marriott Hotel.

As a major shareholder of Marriott Hotel, Ye Chen was pretty much a hands-off boss.

He didn’t know the hotel’s management personnel at all.

The man continued bragging, "Don’t underestimate my job. I’ll tell you, even though my job doesn’t sound glamorous, it’s a fat post. Those white-collar workers seem flashy, but they’re trash in front of me."

"Tch, aren’t you just buying groceries for the hotel? Quite impressive?"

The man sneered, "Groceries? You know who my brother-in-law is? The deputy general manager of Marriott Hotel. Why am I in the procurement department as a director? Because it’s a fat post. Responsible for the hotel’s procurement, guess how much I pocket monthly?"

Despite having a DiDi driver in front, the man didn’t hold back.

In his eyes, a DiDi Brother was just a small fish from the lower class. Disclosing such things wouldn’t matter to him.

The man never imagined the driver was the major shareholder of their Marriott Hotel.

The woman looked at the man’s showing-off fingers with disdain, "Ten thousand?"

The man shook his head.

"A hundred thousand?" the woman guessed again.

The man kept shaking his head.

The woman got a bit excited.

"Could it be a million?"

The man’s face showed a smug smile, "You’re right, it’s a million."

"Oh my, a million? Darling, you’re amazing."

Hearing a million, the woman threw herself into the man’s arms.

Seeing the woman’s behavior, the man was filled with pride.

The man felt this pretension was simply a perfect score.

The woman knew this man didn’t have only her.

So she wanted to know more about the man.

This way, she could threaten him in the future and secure the greatest benefits.

The woman said, "You’re not lying to me, are you? How could buying food make a million?"

The man boasted, "You don’t understand. When I procure supplies, I always pay the highest price. For example, premium abalone at a thousand bucks, but I actually get it for a hundred. So I pocket nine hundred. Our Marriott Hotel procures a lot of ingredients, so guess how much I make in a month?"

The girlfriend was thrilled, "Darling, you’re incredible, it’s like finding money."

The man looked proud, "That’s just my sales tactics. Actually, I have many ways to collect money. Just the kickbacks from suppliers amount to several million a year. If they don’t bribe me, they can’t even dream of selling their goods to me."

Saying this, the man glanced at Ye Chen.

The moment the man got in the car, he noticed his girlfriend stealing glances at Ye Chen, which made him uncomfortable.

The man snorted, "In society now, it’s about the face. Is being handsome useful?"

His eyes narrowed, deciding to humiliate Ye Chen in front of his girlfriend.
