Chapter 175: Chapter 103: A Male Lead’s Relative (Part 7)_3

It even dragged him into it.

Didn’t you see the people around, who, at the sight of Ye Chen, all showed disdain and contempt?

To be honest, having been brothers with Su Wenyuan for five years and knowing his identity as the only son of the richest man for over a year,

Ye Chen knew that the people around Su Wenyuan looked down on him, but in the past, they would still cover it up somewhat.

But now, feeling the intense, meaningful stares from all around, Ye Chen’s face burned red, and he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

However, Ye Chen was the male lead after all, and his mental fortitude was still pretty strong.

Suppressing the negative emotions churning inside him, Ye Chen forced a smile.

He deliberately scolded in the tone of an older brother chastising a disobedient younger one, "Xiao Tian, Wenyuan gave you something and you just accepted it? Have you forgotten how our parents usually teach us both?"

"Ah, brother, I definitely remember, but the problem is, Brother Wenyuan isn’t an outsider!" He Tiantian said nonchalantly.

But the trust and familiarity in her tone, treating Su Wenyuan as one of her own, did not annoy Su Wenyuan or make him feel she was brown-nosing to climb the social ladder. Instead, he found her quite sincere.

Hmm, her nature was a bit impulsive and opportunistic, but it was all within what Su Wenyuan could tolerate.

To be honest, as the only son of the richest man, who had started interning at the family conglomerate in recent months, he saw all sorts of people.

There were those who buttered him up, those who worshipped him... Their tricks and methods were multitude, and after seeing it for a while, Su Wenyuan grew tired of it.

And having seen too many people who were overly materialistic, who forgot morals for profit, and who would sell their souls and dignity for money, Su Wenyuan increasingly found Ye Chen’s equanimity precious.

Of course, his liking for Ye Chen’s pure friendship did not mean he didn’t like those cunning sneaks.

After all, everyone likes to hear nice things, and the Emperor also prefers cunning courtiers.

But to be able to chase benefits while still maintaining a trace of sincerity was really quite refreshing.

This cousin of Ye Chen’s gave Su Wenyuan that kind of feeling.

Not that he liked him much, just that he was quite comfortable and not dislikeable.

"Right, I’m not an outsider! Ye Zi, I’ve been wanting to give you a membership card for ages. You’ll have business dealings later, and my Deep Blue Bar, though not top-notch, is pretty high class!"

Su Wenyuan, flattered by He Tiantian, didn’t notice his friend’s discomfort. Smiling, he said, "When you bring clients here for meetings, it won’t be too embarassing, right?"

Before Ye Chen could speak, He Tiantian had already started praising again, "Exactly! Brother Wenyuan, not to boast, but your bar really has prestige."

"Oh? My bar is really that good?" Su Wenyuan’s interest was piqued again.

He Tiantian then began praising the Deep Blue Bar using her fingers, from the location to the layout, from the hardware to the furnishings, serving staff, bartenders to the types of drinks and brands!

He Tiantian wasn’t mindlessly flattering, as upon careful listening, one would find that her numerous praises included some solid points.

Su Wenyuan’s eyes shone, "Oh, you noticed that? That lighting, I had it specially designed and custom-made by a foreign designer!"

"Right, right! Oh my, as soon as I walked in, I felt the ambiance in the bar was particularly good. It turns out it’s all accentuated by the lighting!"

He Tiantian’s flattery once again hit Su Wenyuan’s sweet spot.

So, Su Wenyuan, forgetting his usual aloofness, began to talk incessantly.

For a moment, he had completely forgotten about Ye Chen.

Ye Chen:...

His heart had already formed prejudices, and he temporarily couldn’t recognize the bright spots in He Tiantian’s performance.

He just felt that He Tiantian shouldn’t be so eager to brown-nose.

Especially since the target was his own friend Su Wenyuan—an equal relation!

"This He Tian, really has no sense of propriety. Doesn’t he know that these acts are too degrading, too, too undignified?"

Ye Chen inwardly complained, and he further blamed his cousin for lacking self-respect and self-love: "You’re not even in the same circle, even if you try desperately to suck up, Wenyuan and his friends still won’t truly accept you!"

Instead, they would secretly mock him, seeing He Tian as a bootlicker, a lackey, shamelessly trying to attach himself to a wealthy family!

*Ding! Male lead’s anger value +1.*

He Tiantian kept her composure but was inwardly ecstatic. The male lead was too cooperative.

Ha ha, such a wonderful male lead, she felt almost embarrassed to continue provoking him.

Oh well, having scored over twenty points just at the beginning was also very good.

The days ahead were still long, she couldn’t exhaust the male lead all at once.

He Tiantian "softened her heart," so in the following time, she didn’t cause any more trouble.

Leaving the Deep Blue Bar together with Ye Chen, when on the road Ye Chen sternly told her, "In the future, don’t use my name to get close to Su Wenyuan," He Tiantian obediently nodded.

Ye Chen:...

Seeing his unlucky cousin being so well-behaved, he, he felt even more uneasy.

And the subsequent events proved that his worries were quite justified...
