"Hehe, what status does he have? He's just a powerless and insignificant live-in son-in-law. You're actually treating him as so big shot?" Su Ya sneered, then shook her head and said, "Old Master, you might as well accept your fate. He's only brought three people with him, but the Chen family has nurous thugs. Just one slash per person would chop him into minced at. He's courting death this ti. Who told him to be so arrogant!"
Just at that mont, a black Lincoln car appeared on the road, heading in the direction of the Su family's gate.
"Isn't that Chen Tai's car?" Su Ya stared and exclaid excitedly, "Haha, I knew it! This must be Chen Tai driving over with the corpse. That scourge Ye Ling is really dead!"
"No, it can't be possible. How could Young Master Ye possibly be dead?" Old Lady Su's voice trembled, and she tossed aside her walking stick, hurrying onto the road.
She had to see for herself whether Young Master Ye was really dead.
The door of the Lincoln car opened, and Chen Tai stepped out of the driver's seat.
"Haha, I told you so! This must be Chen Tai driving over with the corpse!" Su Ya said smugly, shrugging her shoulders.
Chen Tai rely gave her a cursory glance and then quickly walked to the rear door, bent over, and opened it, saying respectfully, "Young Master Ye, please get out of the car!"
Ye Ling stepped out of the car, and like a servant, Chen Tai followed closely behind him.
This scene stunned everyone in the Su family.
Su Ya's mouth hung open and she mumbled in disbelief, "No, it's not possible. How could that scourge Ye Ling possibly survive and even have Chen Tai serve as his underling?"
Chen Tai's face darkened; he stepped forward and slapped her across the face with such force that her neck twisted.
Afterward, grabbing her by the neck, he hissed, "Wretch, you better listen well. From now on, Young Master Ye is the master of the Chen family. If you dare to disrespect Young Master Ye again, I'll take your dog life!"
The people of the Su family rubbed their eyes in disbelief. Ye Ling really did it. Not only did he make it back alive from the Chen family compound, but he also made Chen Tai willingly beco one of his subordinates. How on earth did he manage that? Was this man too terrifying?
Old Lady Su's face lit up with joy, and she patted Ye Ling on the shoulder, "Good, worthy of being Young Master Ye. I knew the Chen family couldn't do anything to you!"
The group returned to the Su residence, and after Ye Ling instructed Su Rou to rest at ho for a few days, she received a phone call from her best friend inviting her to a gathering.
"Ye Ling, will you co with to this class reunion?" Su Rou asked with a troubled expression. Every ti there was a class reunion, so people would co forward to confess their feelings, and even after she rejected them, they would still shalessly persist.
"Sure, it's a good opportunity to chase away so flies." Ye Ling nodded, then drove the jeep toward the location Su Rou had agreed upon.
"Fu Gui Ren Jian Club, isn't this Li Tianqing's place?" Ye Ling paused for a mont, as if sothing had occurred to him.
"Yes, you know about Tian Ye too, right? He's our city's richest man. All the high-end clubs and office buildings are his properties." Su Rou said with excitent and a look of admiration on her face.
Ye Ling chuckled with a playful tone, "Why, you want to et this Li Tianqing?"
"In the upper circles, who wouldn't want to get to know Lord Tian? Not only is he a tycoon in real industries, but he's also the president of our association. Anyone who connects with him will have doors opened in all walks of life!" Su Rou's eyes blazed with eagerness but quickly dimd as she sighed, "How would soone like Lord Tian ever bother to et a greenhorn like ? Ye Ling, stop teasing !"
"So what about Li Tianqing? You're my wife, Ye Ling. He should feel honored to et you!" Ye Ling smiled faintly, pride gleaming in his eyes.
He was none other than the Northern Liao King, commanding an army of a million. If he hadn't stepped in to help, Li Tianqing's family would have perished in the chaos of war long ago.
As they talked, they arrived at the entrance of the club. Ye Ling parked the car, ready to help Su Rou out when a BMW 5 Series blocked their spot, honking loudly.
A man in an Italian suit got out of the car and said discourteously, "Kid, vacate the parking spot quickly. I am a VIP client here!"
"So what if you're a VIP client? Who decided that parking spots have to be given up?" Ye Ling frowned and snorted with displeasure.
From the car, a flamboyantly dressed woman stuck out her head and sneered, "A pauper, driving an outdated Santana and still has the nerve to co out, why don't you get a tractor instead?"
"Looking for trouble!" Ye Ling's face turned cold, ready to confront them, but Su Rou at his side pulled him back, stepping forward with a smile, "Lin Dong, Liu Qian, are you two here for the reunion too? This is my husband, Ye Ling!"
The two were startled for a mont, gave Ye Ling a lookover, and shook their heads disdainfully as if they hadn't seen anything.
Liu Qian added sarcastically, "Oh, so this is your husband, huh? His clothes are so out of fashion, I thought he was a construction worker."
Ye Ling clenched his fists, ready to erupt, but seeing Su Rou's pleading eyes, he relaxed and smiled, "Right, my outfit is unbranded, made-to-order by soone I know."
"Ha, even such trashy clothes need to be made-to-order?" Liu Qian scoffed, pointing at Lin Dong, "Look at Lin Dong here. His suit is custom-made by a famous designer. Just this outfit cost him hundreds of thousands."
Ye Ling raised an eyebrow silently. His clothing was made of nanofiber materials, which cost millions just for the materials, not to ntion the processing technology. Although his outfit had no label, if it were to be auctioned off in the market, it would start at no less than a hundred million.
"Hundreds of thousands, Lin Dong, you must be doing quite well now?" Su Rou said with a smile, making polite conversation.
Lin Dong responded with feigned modesty, "Hehe, I've only made a billion or two. I made a fortune in finance and now I'm investing in raw gemstones. I'm planning to register my own company and go public, connecting with international jewelry and funds." Lin Dong's eyes glead with spirited pride.
Liu Qian's eyes sparkled with admiration, "Lin Dong's really made it big, soon to be selected as one of the top ten outstanding youths. Once he's on TV, even the stock guru Warren Buffett will want to invest in his company!"
"Wow, that impressive?" Su Rou expressed surprise. Although she didn't know about the top ten outstanding youths, she had heard of the stock guru, renowned for managing assets worth over a trillion. If Lin Dong truly got his investnt, his net worth would inflate by tens or hundreds of tis, even reaching the ranks of the rich list.
"Hehe, all that is still a business secret, so make sure you don't let it slip!" Lin Dong winked, feigning seriousness as he cautioned everyone.
