Chapter 88: My Aunt is Just Cold on the Outside but Warm on the Inside
“Hey, bro, guess who I saw at the Chen family banquet?” Li Zichuan excitedly called Lu Li.
“Ye Chen!”
“Man, are you a fortune teller or what? How could you guess that?”
“Hehe, I’ve been keeping an eye on that kid. He’s trying to pull one over on , if I don’t get back at him, then I might as well take his surna. Anyway, don’t provoke him for now. I’ll be heading to Modu in a few days, and I’ll deal with him then.” Lu Li reminded, not wanting Li Zichuan to be targeted by Ye Chen.
Having a protagonist around is like dealing with sothing unscientific. Even if Lu Li looked down on him in his heart, he’d still take it seriously.
Li Zichuan is more important than Ye Chen.
“And you’re telling this now? I’ve been waiting for your signal these past few days, ready to take down Zhang Ziqin’s company. And here you are, having handled it all by yourself.” Li Zichuan suddenly felt dissatisfied.
“I didn’t expect Zhang Ziqin to be that idiotic.” Lu Li felt helpless. He had indeed intended to let Li Zichuan get involved, but who knew Zhang Ziqin would act so foolishly.
“Hehe, true. But if Zhang Ziqin is an idiot, then what does that make you, having chased her for eight years… Hmm?” Li Zichuan teased ambiguously, with a sly smile.
“If you can’t speak properly, then shut it!” Lu Li darkened, that was a sore point.
“Hahaha, well, you’ve moved on now, props to you. I’ll throw you a party when you get to Modu.”
“Fine, just don’t ss with that guy until I arrive,” Lu Li said with a slight smile.
“I’m not stupid. Why would I offend the Chen family for you? You’re not even a beauty,” Li Zichuan laughed too, sensing Lu Li’s concern.
Though he said that, if anything serious happened, he would be the first to step up.
Lu Li didn’t mind; bantering like this was not new, but he knew what kind of person Li Zichuan was.
After hanging up, Li Zichuan took a deep look at Ye Chen on the stage. Since Lu Li said so, he must have made arrangents, so he decided not to trouble him for now.
“Li Shao, do you like what I’ve brought?” The woman he brought smiled, holding a tray, wisely waiting until he had finished his call.
Li Zichuan nodded silently, as he said, these won, though gold-diggers, had their limits. After all, they were looking for rich and powerful n. Acting recklessly could lead to undesirable consequences.
Li Zichuan sighed while looking at the food brought by the woman.
“What’s wrong, Li Shao? Does it not suit your taste? I can get sothing else.”
“No, it’s fine, give it to !” He took the plate from her hands, sighing, “It just reminded of the past when she used to prepare food for like this.”
“Uh…” The woman didn’t know how to respond.
“Let’s just enjoy the party today; these kinds of banquets are rare. Have fun, and then you can go back!” He pulled out a card, unusually generous for him. Normally, he would just buy won small gifts, although they were also quite valuable. After all, wooing won also had its costs.
“…” The woman didn’t say anything further, taking the card and leaving wisely, knowing that pestering him wouldn’t end well for her.
Li Zichuan shrugged, no longer interested in staying. He wasn’t one to pretend with soone destined to be an enemy.
“Is Li Gongzi leaving already? I’m sorry if the banquet wasn’t up to par.” Chen Ya swirled her wine glass, her high heels tapping crisply on the floor, sounding like the prelude to a storm.
“Sorry, President Chen, sothing urgent ca up at ho, and I need to deal with it.” Li Zichuan offered a simple smile, politely excusing himself.
Before things turned sour, he wouldn’t make a spectacle of himself. Lu Li had said to wait for him, so he would!
“Is that so.” Chen Ya didn’t expose Li Zichuan’s lie, just nodding slightly in acknowledgnt: “Then, I won’t keep Li Shaoye.”
Chen Ya knew about Li Zichuan, her beloved’s best friend. In the previous life, Li Zichuan was the first to seek revenge for Lu Li’s death, though his thods were sowhat foolish. While they were still uncovering the truth, Li Zichuan directly targeted Ye Chen, charging at him with a gun despite the huge gap between them, only to fail, of course.
Even Chen Ya was moved by the brotherhood between Li Zichuan and Lu Li. In this materialistic world, such relationships were indeed rare.
“Please, stay, President Chen.”
Li Zichuan left without further ado. He had no good feelings for the successor of the Chen family, just a future enemy.
“Aunt, who were you talking to?” Ye Chen approached, having seen Chen Ya talking to another man, which displeased him.
“It’s nothing, just a business partner who had to leave early and ca to say goodbye.” Chen Ya’s tone was cold; she didn’t want any interaction with Ye Chen.
“Why are you here? You should be with the younger crowd. Father asked to look after you. I don’t know what you were like abroad, but here, if you want to make connections, it’s best to start with the younger generation.”
Her tone was distant, Chen Ya giving Ye Chen a cold side glance.
Ye Chen didn’t mind, assuming his aunt was just like that. But this side of Chen Ya only fueled his desire!
A beauty cold as ice; he really wanted to see what a passionate Chen Ya would be like!
“Sorry, aunt, I just wanted to ask if you have any recomndations for people I could et.”
Chen Ya’s gaze shifted slightly. If she could make Ye Chen cause a bit of trouble, letting her father see his true colors and give up on him would be ideal.
She knew her nephew Ye Chen well: a daring womanizer who caused trouble everywhere. If not for his sufficient capabilities, he would have been killed countless tis.
With his propensity for trouble, Chen Ya didn’t even need to do much.
She just hoped her father would see through him soon. Now that Chen Ya had almost entirely taken over the Chen family’s power, she really didn’t want Ye Chen to cause a rift between her and her father, even if…
In a few months, Lu Li would co to Modu, and this ti, she was determined to protect him, even if it ant confronting her father.
“The Wang and Lin families in Modu are the strongest, fitting your criteria.” She spoke coldly, then turned to leave, not wanting to see this nephew even for a mont longer.
The Wang and Lin families were indeed powerful, not even considering the Chen family seriously. The representatives they sent today were just two prodigal sons; let them deal with Ye Chen first!
Watching his aunt Chen Ya’s retreating figure, Ye Chen couldn’t help swallowing, his heart ablaze with desire. Her figure, it must be great to hold.
Although his aunt was cold to him, she was just cold on the outside but warm on the inside. There’s plenty of ti in the future, and with his thods, he was sure he could make his aunt take the initiative.
