"All the brothers willing to live here will be uniformly arranged to live in the outer city. Each will also be allocated a house." Ye Chen waved his hand, gifting the micro-city he built with tens of billions of dollars to his little brothers. Of course, only the right to use the house belonged to them, the ownership still belonged to the Heavenly Reversal Gang.
"Got it!" Feng Zhixiao nodded imdiately. Ye Chen’s arrangent naturally had no issues, and it’s expected that many little brothers would co to live here in the future, turning this city into the base of the Heavenly Reversal Gang.
...
After the arrangents for Sunset City were also settled, Da Xia quickly sent over the relevant information. Only about thirty households had the intention to relocate, which, compared to the entire Leisure City, was just a drop in the ocean. Ye Chen’s expression darkened instantly. He had anticipated so resistance, but he didn’t expect it to be this strong.
"Brother Chen, you have no idea, out of these thirty households, ten had to be persuaded by force to agree!" Da Xia said helplessly.
"None of them understand my good intentions!" Ye Chen sighed helplessly and then said, "Forget it, if they don’t move now, they can just fend for themselves later!"
"Brother Chen, then..." Da Xia looked at Ye Chen in confusion.
"For those thirty households, fulfill everything we promised!" Ye Chen waved his hand and said, "Give them the houses they deserve, give the cash if needed. Hmph, I want to see what those who refuse to move will do in the future!"
"Yes!" Da Xia nodded imdiately.
The relocation matter troubled Ye Chen for a long ti, and now he finally understands the mindset of those city managent officers during demolitions. Facing those who refuse to relocate, it’s no wonder the city managent used every ans possible, even if it ant colluding with the underworld. Ye Chen finally sighed and said, "Let’s forget it, the world operates the sa without anyone in particular!"
Ye Chen quickly recovered from his low mood. He decided to take a trip to New York. Unbeknownst to him, it had been nearly a year since he last went to New York to et Li Ruo. During this period, the two kept their relationship through phone calls. But phone lines are ultimately a virtual existence, incapable of holding the growing affection between two people.
So, Ye Chen decided to go to New York.
...
In New York, United States, Tianya Group’s business was thriving. Due to Li Ruo’s reputation, she had once been bestowed the title of business elite by President Obama, prompting many companies to be willing to cooperate with Tianya Group. In fact, a large part of President Obama’s willingness to support Li Ruo and her Tianya Group was because of Ye Chen’s influence.
The President wanted to build a relationship with Ye Chen, so he decided to start with the woman beside him. Ye Chen was soone who valued relationships, and it’s expected that he would feel the kindness shown to Li Ruo. Of course, Ye Chen was fully aware of this.
On Wall Street, New York, Li Ruo received a phone call from her assistant Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing inford her that soone was waiting for her in the eting room.
"Okay, have the client wait a mont in the eting room, I’ll be there shortly!" Li Ruo replied, then hung up. After hanging up, Li Ruo tidied up her work a bit and then got up to head to the eting room. People ca looking for her every day, and most had scheduled appointnts, so Li Ruo typically didn’t ask who exactly was looking for her.
At the door of the eting room, Xiao Bing was anxiously waiting for Mr. Li to arrive. Today was her most nerve-wracking day since coming to the United States. In the morning, Mr. Ye Chen, Li Ruo’s boyfriend, found her and hoped she would cooperate with him on sothing. At the ti, Xiao Bing didn’t think much of it, but when she learned that Ye Chen wanted to propose to Mr. Li, she beca excited. She never imagined that Mr. Ye would propose, so she agreed readily.
The entire company knew about it, except Li Ruo.
As Li Ruo got off the elevator, she noticed that her colleagues’ gazes were a bit unusual, though she wasn’t entirely sure why. Li Ruo was a very diligent person, so she didn’t think much of it and made her way quickly toward the eting room.
Xiao Bing, standing at the door, spotted Li Ruo in the distance and hurried into the eting room, nervously saying, "Ye Chen... Mr. Ye, Mr. Li is here!"
"Good, everything is ready!" Ye Chen waved his hand. The eting room’s bright lights were all turned off.
Xiao Bing waited at the door of the eting room for Li Ruo to arrive and quickly said, "Mr. Li, the client is waiting for you in the eting room, please go in first!"
"Hmm!" Li Ruo slightly furrowed her brows, puzzled by Xiao Bing’s different attitude than before. She found it quite surprising, glanced at Xiao Bing, said no more, and walked into the eting room. Inside, it was pitch black, and Li Ruo’s heart tightened as she anxiously called out, "Xiao Bing, what’s going on? Why is there no light in the eting room!"
Clack...
A crisp sound, and a spotlight turned on above, focusing on a person’s silhouette. Upon closer inspection, Li Ruo was stunned; it was none other than the person she had thought of every day—Ye Chen. He was holding a bouquet of flaming red roses, walking toward Li Ruo step by step. A spotlight also enveloped Li Ruo.
Ye Chen walked slowly toward Li Ruo, the spotlight following him until he reached her, then knelt on one knee and said, "Xiao Ruo, thank you for waiting so long. I know today seems abrupt, but I must tell you that I’ve made the most important decision of my life, and that is to propose to you!"
"Ah?!" Li Ruo’s beautiful eyes widened.
"Yes, it’s a proposal!" Ye Chen nodded, looking earnestly into Li Ruo’s eyes and said, "Maybe I’m not as outstanding as you imagined; maybe I don’t et your expectations for a spouse; maybe I’m not handso enough; but I have a passionate heart, and this heart belongs entirely to you. Belonging to you and . Belonging to the world of you and !"
"I..." Li Ruo’s face turned crimson. Being confessed to and proposed to face-to-face was definitely a first for her. Her heart was sweet and joyful. She wanted to quickly agree, but Ye Chen didn’t stop his proposal. He put down the flowers and took out a small box from the pocket of his suit, opened it, and inside was a brilliant diamond ring, weighing several carats. Under the light, the diamond ring was extraordinarily beautiful.
"Don’t speak yet!" Ye Chen hurriedly said, "Let finish my words!"
"Ye Chen... I..." Li Ruo wanted to speak, but Ye Chen said with a smile, "If loving you is wrong, I’d rather not be right; if being right ans leaving you, I’d rather be wrong my entire life! I won’t love for the sake of love, nor because of you, but I just want to express my truest thoughts. If I’m fortunate enough to have this honor, I wish to accompany you for life, all year round. In spring, I’ll walk gently with you among white flowers; in sumr, I’ll run with you by the joyful riverbank; in autumn, I’ll stroll with you in the flaming maple forests; in winter, I’ll sit by the warm hearth with you! Xiao Ruo, marry . I want to be with you forever!"
The proposal had no pretense, only sincerity. Li Ruo was moved to tears by Ye Chen’s confession. She was extrely touched and had long been prepared to spend her life with Ye Chen. Although this proposal was a bit abrupt, it still touched Li Ruo’s heart.
Clack...
All the lights went out, and the entire eting room was filled with rose petals, and fire-red roses were placed all around. It felt like being imrsed in a sea of roses. The rich fragrance wafted around Li Ruo, prompting her to say excitedly, "I... I agree to it!"
Creaking sounds...
The girls hidden among the roses sprung out, applauding. They had watched the entire proposal step by step, feeling elated as though they were the ones being proposed to. Li Ruo nodded nervously, then awkwardly reprimanded Ye Chen, "You... how did you hide so many people here?"
"Hehe, I couldn’t have set up this proposal scene without them!" Ye Chen said with a sly grin.
"Hmph!" Li Ruo snorted lightly.
Beside her, Xiao Bing quickly ca up and said, "Mr. Li, wishing you and Mr. Ye eternal happiness!"
"Little Ni, one day I’ll find you a good match!" Li Ruo glared at Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing hurriedly shook her head, saying, "Mr. Li, please don’t send away. I want to work at Tianya Group for a few more years, I’m applying for a US Green Card! I think I might get it in a few days!"
"Hehe, don’t worry, I won’t let you leave!" Li Ruo smiled.
The surrounding girls ca forward to congratulate them, and Ye Chen was generous, giving each one of them a red envelope, making everyone very happy. Eventually, it was just Ye Chen and Li Ruo left in the eting room. The two stood amid the sea of flowers and rose scents. Ye Chen held Li Ruo’s hand tightly and said, "Xiao Ruo, I am finally going to marry you!"
"Hmph, but let tell you, the wedding can’t be small in scale!" Li Ruo snorted lightly.
