Chapter 71 - 71 69 67 You Hurt Me

71: Chapter 69 Chapter 67: You Hurt Me 71: Chapter 69 Chapter 67: You Hurt Me After lunch, it was already 1:30 PM when I returned to the office.

During the noon break, most people chose to take a short nap at their desks or rest in their chairs.

However, just as Ye Chen got back to the office, he received a call from Feng Zhixiao.

“Brother Chen, didn’t you say that you’ve already clinched the hotpot restaurant in University City?

I’ve been waiting at home for days, and there’s still no sign of you!” Feng Zhixiao was very anxious, as he had already boasted to the little brothers that they could start running the place within three days.

But now it was almost the third day, and if Ye Chen didn’t deliver the contract soon, he feared he would lose credibility with his little brothers.

“Ah, I’ve been so busy these last two days.

Alright, I’ll head back to Xin Hai Apartment now, wait for me at the entrance!” Ye Chen slapped his forehead and hurried down the stairs.

Driving his little Oto, he sped toward Xin Hai Apartment.

At the entrance, he saw Feng Zhixiao’s slim figure wearing a yellow tank top and striped shorts, squatting at the gate smoking.

Seeing Ye Chen’s car approaching, his eyes lit up, and he promptly crushed the cigarette and waved at Ye Chen.

“Brother Chen, over here.” Feng Zhixiao hurriedly waved.

Ye Chen rolled down the window and said, “You boy, quite eager, aren’t you?”

“Heh heh, not just me, all the little brothers are eager too!” Feng Zhixiao grinned.

“Alright, let’s go in!” Ye Chen immediately parked the car in the complex.

The two went up, and Ye Chen directly took out a contract, the black ink on white paper now speckled with dust.

Feng Zhixiao looked at Ye Chen with surprise and said, “Brother Chen, you actually left such an important thing just lying on the desk?”

“Oh, my place is so secure, even the rats don’t want to come here!” Ye Chen grinned and pulled out two cans of cold beer from the fridge and tossed one to Feng Zhixiao, “Have some ice-cold beer to cool down.”

“Enough, who has time for beer?

I need to hurry and take over Hotpot City!” Feng Zhixiao nervously packed the contract and quickly left the apartment.

Seeing Feng Zhixiao all fired up about this matter pleased Ye Chen inwardly.

If he, Ye Chen, had gone through so much trouble to get him such a prime location, and he didn’t care, it would have lost its meaning.

Having had lunch and now a beer, the southwestern wind blowing outside the window was almost lulling Ye Chen to sleep.

He lay on the sofa, too lazy to go back to work.

After all, I’m the supervisor.

Being an official has its perks; I go to work if I want to, and if I don’t, I just find an excuse to skip it.

With that, he slept the entire afternoon.

At the end of the afternoon, as Li Ruo had finished her busy day, she stretched and checked her watch.

“Where’s Ye Chen?” Li Ruo asked Lin Ziwen.

“Mr.

Li, isn’t he in the sales department?” Lin Ziwen looked curiously at Li Ruo.

“I know that.

I’m asking about how he’s doing there,” Li Ruo continued, her face slightly reddened, and internally she was very dissatisfied with herself.

How could she think of that sly guy so quickly after coming to her senses?

Li Ruo opened the drawer and looked at the ‘Contract of Sale’ signed by Ye Chen, the corners of her mouth involuntarily curling up slightly.

“Mr.

Li, I…

I’m not very sure!” Lin Ziwen felt awkward.

“No problem, let’s go check it out now!” Li Ruo quickly gathered her things and stood up from her chair.

The two immediately took the elevator to the sales department.

It was typical for people there to be exceptionally busy, working overtime often.

If not around, they were usually out on business.

When Li Ruo and Lin Ziwen arrived at Sales Team One’s office, there was no one there and it was completely dark.

In contrast, Sales Team Two, Team Three, and other teams were still working diligently.

“What…

what’s going on?” Li Ruo was stunned and utterly astonished.

“Mr.

Li, maybe because it’s Ye Chen’s first day, they might have gone out for a celebration meal!” Lin Ziwen quickly tried to explain.

Just as he finished speaking, the manager of Sales Team Two immediately nodded and bowed, smiling, “Mr.

Li, you wouldn’t know, the manager of Team One has been absent all afternoon.

So, his team couldn’t get any tasks from upstairs and had to leave early!”

“Damn it!” Li Ruo gritted her teeth and walked away.

Lin Ziwen glared fiercely at the manager of Team Two, then quickly followed Li Ruo as she walked away, fuming, “The company is at a critical time, and this guy doesn’t come to work for an entire afternoon.

He even lets the whole office disappear.

No, I absolutely can’t let him get away with this!”

“Mr.

Li, what…

what do you plan to do?” Lin Ziwen anxiously asked.

“Hmph, I’ll have the project manager of the sales department come to my office tomorrow morning.

I need to put some pressure on Team One!” Li Ruo narrowed her eyes, her gaze emitting a cold glint as she softly smiled, “Ye Chen, you’ve forced my hand.

Don’t blame me for being unkind!”

“Mr.

Li, it might be too much pressure for Ye Chen since he just started, don’t you think?” Lin Ziwen was nervous.

Deep down, she sided with Ye Chen, so when Li Ruo mentioned putting pressure on him, Lin Ziwen immediately got anxious.
