Chapter 879: Chapter 854:
Pfft…
Feng Zhixiao chuckled from the side, “Miss Zimo, please have rcy and spare Brother Chen. If you continue to serve like this, Brother Chen’s stomach won’t be able to handle it!”
“Exactly, you might as well serve us instead. We would love to have Miss Zimo’s top-notch service!” Li Tieniu flashed a row of yellow-stained teeth. Zhao Zimo glared at them and snapped, “Hmph, you bunch of rascals, I won’t even bother with you. Not even a glass of water for you!”
“Oh, what kind of world is this!” Feng Zhixiao sighed, then dejectedly said, “The rich feast inside while we freeze and starve in the streets. We’re like those frozen, starving bones!”
Zhao Zimo flashed a pure smile and said, “Yet I don’t see you turning into a pile of bones?”
Everyone was a bit embarrassed. Who would have thought this pure and gentle-looking girl would have such a playful, cute heart? They couldn’t help but be chard by Zhao Zimo. The group started teasing each other.
“Zhixiao, go for her!” Li Tieniu grabbed a handful of lon seeds.
“No way, I’m a married man!” Feng Zhixiao quickly shook his head and said, “How can I ss around with soone else when I’m married? But you, you should find soone to settle down with, right? Brother Chen is founding a kingdom. In the future, you’ll at least be a General. There should be plenty of people willing to be the General’s wife!”
“Nah, I haven’t had enough fun yet!” Li Tieniu grinned, “I used to not know what won were like, but now it’s like being addicted to a drug. I can’t be happy without them. Won are like scrapers sharpening my bones, and without them, I can’t sleep at all!”
On the way, the group chatted and soon arrived at Leisure City. Outside the airport, there was a car waiting for them, and Ye Chen and the others were quickly taken to the castle. Ye Chen then entered his study and began reviewing so recent docunts, which required his personal attention, especially with how busy things had been lately. There were massive funds going in and out for that Canadian city site.
After returning to the Rothschild family, Ye Chen stayed for a week. During that week, the old butler Jack finally retired at the age of eighty-eight, having served as a great contributor to the Rothschild family. He had served three generations of clan leaders and was respected throughout Leisure City. Although retired, he continued to receive respect from the entire Rothschild family, from the Clan Leader down to every guard.
Haozi successfully beca the manager of the Rothschild family, known as the Think Tank, advising the Clan Leader and managing all affairs of the family. anwhile, Da Xia beca the captain of the Rothschild family’s guard team, overseeing the security of the entire Rothschild family and Leisure City. Surprisingly, another person’s sudden promotion caught everyone off guard—Zhao Zimo, the mischievous little girl, suddenly beca Ye Chen’s personal secretary and assistant.
This delighted the playful, adorable girl. Although Zhao Zimo was mischievous, she never went too far. When it ca to getting things done, she was still efficient.
Feng Zhixiao, Li Tieniu, and the others left Leisure City hurriedly the day after the enshrinent banquet, heading to Canada, bringing over a thousand people from the United States to help with the city’s construction there. For ease of managent, Ye Chen quickly nad that city, calling it Sunset City, symbolizing beauty like the sunset, as gentle as the sunset, unlike the hazy dawn or the glaring noon.
Just as Ye Chen was about to head to Canada, a ssage from the guard unexpectedly halted him.
“Clan Leader, the US President is on the phone for you!” Ye Chen’s personal secretary quickly walked in.
“Hmm?” Ye Chen paused for a mont, turned to look at Zhao Zimo at the door, and said, “Put his call through!”
“Yes!” Zhao Zimo nodded, and soon, Obama’s call connected to Ye Chen’s extension. Ye Chen chuckled and asked, “Mr. President, what can I do for you?”
“Not dare to instruct,” Obama chuckled lightly, “I heard you’ve been very successful lately, getting everything you wish for?”
“Not really, I’ve just been following your instructions,” Ye Chen grinned, “The Doomsday Family was a pawn of the Church Court. Since I’ve eliminated it, you should be thanking , shouldn’t you?”
“Indeed, I accidentally let you grow strong,” Obama sighed helplessly, “Now that you’re building a city in Canada, I’m sensing sothing off!”
“Off?” Ye Chen asked curiously.
“Knowing you, you have more than just city-building in mind!” Obama calmly shared his thoughts, “You’re trying to beco a nation within a nation, aren’t you, Ye Clan Leader?”
“Hahaha, it seems that His Excellency the President understands !” Ye Chen said with relief.
“Aren’t you afraid of devastating strikes?” Obama replied with a cold smile.
“Oh, no. I believe there won’t be any!” Ye Chen confidently laughed, “My developnt has always aligned with the interests of the United States. We are pursuing democracy, sovereignty, and freedom. Isn’t that so?”
“Hmph, sovereignty isn’t that easy. Do you know how many lives the United States has sacrificed in the pursuit of sovereignty?” Obama gritted his teeth as he spoke. He certainly didn’t wish for Ye Chen to beco independent. Currently, the Luo Sijue family is a latent family, unknown to the public, thus not affecting the US dominance. Once the Luo Sijue family cos out into the public eye, it will undoubtedly cause a sensation worldwide. At that point, if the United States doesn’t act, their authority will surely diminish.
“I’m not worried!” Ye Chen chuckled calmly, “Our entire Luo Sijue family of thirteen thousand people, along with the 130,000 residents of Leisure City, are willing to sacrifice themselves for sovereignty!”
“Oh, no, you dictator!” Obama gasped, sensing the unwavering confidence in Ye Chen’s tone.
“No, I’m not a dictator!” Ye Chen shook his head with a smile, “I am a promoter of democracy!”
“Tomorrow I will visit Leisure City, does His Excellency welco this?” Obama hurriedly adjusted his mood, not wanting to be led by the nose by Ye Chen. Once trapped in Ye Chen’s sches, he would find it hard to extricate himself.
“The Luo Sijue family always welcos the President’s arrival!” Ye Chen nodded.
The two then hung up, and the call made Ye Chen sense the crisis. At least from Obama’s tone, it was clear the Luo Sijue family was not allowed to build a city in Canada, nor be independent. Ye Chen took a deep breath and threw the docunts he was holding onto the floor.
Zhao Zimo watched Ye Chen, who was leaning on the sofa, feeling so heartache. She said nothing, but quietly tidied up the scattered papers, reorganizing them on the desk for Ye Chen. Then, she turned and left the room, gently closing the study door behind her.
Ye Chen looked outside at the turbulent waves but couldn’t shake the foundation of this cliff. Outside was gloomy, with heavy clouds gathering in the sky, making the view outside the window resemble an ink painting. Ye Chen suddenly gained insight, his eyes widened as he looked at the turbulent waves figure, realizing these waves were the malicious forces harboring resentnt against the Luo Sijue family. And this immovable cliff was the foundation of the Luo Sijue family.
No matter how the powerful national forces sche to destroy the Luo Sijue family, the strong family’s foundation will never be shaken.
Ye Chen stood up from his chair, his expression relaxed a bit, with a slight smile on his lips. Suddenly, there was a movent in his pocket. It was a call from Zhang Yantong; Ye Chen quickly picked up the phone and said flatteringly, “My dear wife, is there… anything you need?”
“Uh…” Zhang Yantong paused, seeing Ye Chen being so sly, simply said, “Sorry, I’m looking for Ye Chen!”
Ye Chen’s forehead showed lines of black, saying, “Tongtong, I am Ye Chen.”
“Hmm, I know, I was afraid you had a split personality.” Zhang Yantong replied grumpily, then said, “Ye Chen, when are you coming back?”
“Is there sothing up?” Ye Chen asked curiously.
“I… there’s sothing, just co back, within three days. If you don’t co back, bear the consequences!” Zhang Yantong finished speaking and imdiately hung up. Ye Chen held the phone with the busy tone echoing, bewildered. He hurriedly called Obama back, learning Obama was already on his way to Leisure City, and finally exhaled a sigh of relief. Sotis, it’s hard to guess a woman’s thoughts; no one knows what matter she’s calling you about.
Obama arrived as planned. However, the eting between them was a clash, especially in Ye Chen’s study, Obama even got furious, complaining Ye Chen is a robber, a bandit who swept the Doomsday Family’s money clean. Several billion US Dollars, all laundered and invested in the construction of Sunset City. Naturally, Obama was angry; no one had ever taken a penny from his pocket. Although the Doomsday Family’s money wasn’t his, Obama had internally already considered the assets of the Church Court all his.
“President, it seems you’ve misunderstood?” Ye Chen smiled broadly, looking at Obama with a smile, “This money belongs to the Doomsday Family, why does your expression look like I took your money?”
“I… I’m mainly upset you processed the Doomsday Family’s headquarters assets without my consent!” Obama looked angrily at Ye Chen. He had a guilty conscience but couldn’t say it outright, so he used this thod to reproach Ye Chen.
“Is that so?” Ye Chen stood up from his chair, then laughed, “I rember Aricans have always supported the idea that the winner takes all. Whoever wins can dominate the battlefield, whoever can control the battlefield. What does victory in war rely on? Isn’t it money? How much money did I spend fighting this war? Where does my money co from? Can only dig out of the enemy’s pocket? Can the President support ?”
