"Haha..." The crowd burst into laughter, the word "loser" has beco a new global term. Including the "rich and handso."
The reason for introducing Ye Chen to everyone is to eliminate the negative impact he has among you!" Obama chuckled, then said, "I think in your impression, many people have labeled Ye Chen as a mber of a terrorist organization, but I want to tell you, Ye Chen is a friend of mine, Obama, and also a friend of the Arican people."
"Wow..." The crowd applauded once again. With Obama’s words, many people would have a whole new understanding of Ye Chen, at least knowing that Ye Chen has Obama’s support behind him.
After Ye Chen ca down, Kasi approached him quietly and said, "Ye Chen, don’t think he’s helping you, hehe, be careful, he might be using you!"
"Hmm? What do you an?" Ye Chen was taken aback.
"Hmph, the United States has other intentions this ti, so you have to be careful. He seems to be helping you on the surface, but actually has another purpose!" Kasi gave a cold smile, then said, "This guy is really insidious. In any case, you need to be cautious of him."
Ye Chen actually had a sense deep down. As soone who was once wanted worldwide, now standing up to clear his na, is it really that simple? Ye Chen himself probably wouldn’t even believe it. Ye Chen chuckled and said, "Mr. Kasi, talking bad about soone behind their back is not very gentlemanly!"
"I’m no gentleman, damn it!" Kasi snorted softly, then said, "To tell you the truth, this ti the United States wants to start an oil war. International oil prices are continuously rising, Aricans are sowhat unable to bear it, however, there’s a lot of oil hidden in the Middle East. It’s just a pity that many Middle Eastern countries are restricting oil exports to the US, which is affecting the developnt of the US economy!"
"Hmph!" Ye Chen snorted coldly, "In my opinion, you and Obama are two of a kind!"
"What?" Kasi was taken aback.
"Gasoline price hikes benefit you, but to Obama, it’s not a good thing!" Ye Chen wore a small smile and said, "One of you is a wolf and the other a tiger, anyway, I can’t afford to provoke either of you!"
In terms of interests, Ye Chen stood on neutral ground. However, Obama and Kasi seed to be on opposing sides, one wanting to control international oil prices to gain greater benefits, and the other wanting oil prices to drop for rapid economic growth. This was bound to lead them to clash.
Of course, the opposing stance of the US wasn’t choosing Saudi Arabia; Kasi was an old friend of Obama’s. However, psychologically, Kasi didn’t want Obama as a covetous old friend, he’d rather stand by Iran, an opposing force to the US. As an oil-producing nation, Iran controls a large amount of the world’s oil. Lately, Iran seems determined to resist the US.
Not only secretly enriching uranium but also hastily planning the research of nuclear warheads. To the United States, all of this appears as terrorism. Anything daring to act against Arican interests is deed terrorism by the US.
The main purpose of the banquet this ti is for the Iranians to see, for the US to indirectly warn Iran, to not play with fire or risk getting burned, as we have plenty of worldly friends at hand. If you dare to act recklessly, we’ll make our worldly friends take you down. It’s a bit like current tactics.
Ye Chen was well aware of the tricks played by Aricans. Therefore, Ye Chen always pretended to be oblivious in front of Obama. Bai He kept looking for opportunities to get close to Ye Chen.
"Ye Chen, co with tonight!" Bai He clutched Ye Chen’s arm and said, "Why are you avoiding !"
"Bai He, can’t you see I already have company?" Ye Chen pointed to Li Ruo, who was surrounded by a group of n not far away, then said, "You’re not going to make things difficult for , are you?"
"You!" Bai He glared at Ye Chen, "Are you saying you won’t accompany tonight?"
"Accompany, how dare I not accompany you?" Ye Chen looked helplessly at Bai He, then said, "However, I’ll have to wait until Li Ruo falls asleep tonight before I can accompany you, how about that?"
"Hmph, whatever, I don’t care if you sleep with other won. But you must sleep with tonight!" Bai He snorted softly, then let go of Ye Chen’s arm and turned to leave.
Li Ruo watched from the side with a pretty glance, even though many n surrounded her, her heart was entirely fixated on Ye Chen. Feng Zhixiao acted as her bodyguard, always guarding her side, preventing any man from getting close to her. Being wary of those lecherous hands, wary of those n trying to take advantage of her. She couldn’t help feeling a pang of jealousy when she saw a strange woman approach Ye Chen just now. However, noticing that Ye Chen’s relationship with her seed just ordinary, she smiled again.
Ye Chen turned around and walked towards Li Ruo. Seeing those dashing young n, Ye Chen smiled and said, "Gentlen, make way!"
However, those guys completely treated Ye Chen’s words as wind by their ears, not taking Ye Chen seriously at all. Each one blocked in front of Ye Chen, refusing to give way. Li Ruo covered her mouth to stifle a laugh, watching as Ye Chen was blocked from moving forward outside. As a Chinese man, although Ye Chen was about 1.8 ters tall, relatively small compared to those foreigners over 1.8 or even over 1.9 ters, he appeared a bit clumsy swaying about outside. This made Li Ruo want to laugh, but to maintain her image, she had to hold back her smile.
Ye Chen was extrely helpless, pulling out a one hundred US dollar bill from his pocket and quickly shouted, "Hey, who dropped five hundred dollars!"
The crowd was stunned and bent down to look, and Ye Chen took the opportunity to slip in. He grinned and said, "Xiao Ruo, I’m here!"
"Hmph, I thought you couldn’t get in!" Li Ruo snorted softly.
"Hehe, I’m late!" Ye Chen chuckled. Tonight, Li Ruo was more stunning than any woman here. A purple evening gown, very noble, elegant, beautiful, and pure. Especially when paired with the diamond necklace around her neck, it was extrely noble. Standing next to Li Ruo, Ye Chen was like a flower stuck in a cow dung.
Li Ruo gently hooked her arm around Ye Chen’s, which left all the n on site in utter despair that their goddess in their hearts held hands with a gang leader. Although the crowd was silently angry, they cursed Ye Chen furiously in their hearts.
In the midst of all their angry gazes, Ye Chen took Li Ruo by the hand and left the crowd. At this mont, Obama turned and walked to Ye Chen’s side, smiling, "Mr. Ye, have you forgotten I still have a second matter to discuss with you today?"
"Second matter? Then, what was the first?" Ye Chen deliberately played dumb.
"Hahaha, Mr. Ye, it seems you really are getting old!" Obama laughed heartily, "The first matter was about your people barging into the police station in New York. As for the second matter, what do you think it is?"
"I’m really not interested!" Ye Chen quickly shook his head. At this ti, Kasi, standing not far away, kept winking at Ye Chen, seemingly trying to convey so sort of ssage to him. Obama laughed heartily, "I believe you will definitely be interested. Doesn’t your Sunset City need large amounts of funding for developnt? I believe the Luo Sijue family’s funds are limited. Only by obtaining a sustainable developnt path can Sunset City achieve positive developnt, don’t you think?"
"Hmm!" Ye Chen nodded. In fact, Ye Chen had been looking for such a path. A positive developnt path isn’t easy to find, it’s like economic developnt and ecological protection. Sacrificing the environnt to develop the economy, or protecting the environnt and lagging the economic developnt. It’s like you can’t have both shark fin and bear paw. Ye Chen was also conflicted, contemplating what kind of path to choose for Sunset City; it was Ye Chen’s greatest wish. Ye Chen curiously asked, "Do you perhaps have a good plan?"
"Of course!" Obama nodded with a smile, then said, "It’s oil!"
"Oil?!" Ye Chen was taken aback, "There is no oil in Sunset City, don’t even think about it!"
"Haha, just because there’s no oil in Sunset City doesn’t an there’s none elsewhere!" Obama laughed heartily, "In the Middle East, a massive amount of oil is stored underground, aren’t you interested?"
"I’m interested, but I can’t compete with them!" Ye Chen quickly shook his head and said, "I feel unable to give more than I already am."
"Haha, I have a project I’d like to entrust to you, sir, surely you’re interested?" Obama laughed heartily, "This is a sustainable developnt project, and if you take it on, I guarantee that everyone in Sunset City can live a prosperous and affluent life!"
"Hehe, I’ve never believed in free lunches in this world!" Ye Chen revealed a cunning smile.
"Of course!" Obama nodded, then said, "There’s truly no free lunch in this world, because eating any lunch requires paying a price. Similarly, if you take on this project, you must accomplish certain tasks!"
"What tasks?" Ye Chen asked curiously.
"Hehe, first you need to promise whether you’re willing to take on the project!" Obama laughed heartily.
"That won’t work. If I agree to it but can’t accomplish it, wouldn’t I be betraying your good intentions?" Ye Chen quickly shook his head, then said, "Therefore, you must first tell what task it is, then I can decide whether to agree!"
"Alright, let’s go to the study to discuss it!" Obama extended an invitation. Li Ruo smiled and said, "Ye Chen, go discuss with the president, Xiao Feng and I will stay here to have sothing to eat, I’m a bit hungry!"
