Car-hailing Driver: Rewards from Complaints-Chapter 192 - 144: We’ve Made Peace with Mr. Yang (Part 2)

Chapter 192: Chapter 144: We’ve Made Peace with Mr. Yang (Part 2)

The United Hundred Group specializes in investing in supermarket chains, such as Longlian Supermarket, Run Hua Wan Jia, Da Fa Run, Hui Yong, and others.

However, the shares they hold in these companies are minimal, never exceeding 4.9%.

The only entity they hold a controlling stake of, Longlian Supermarket Group, was sold to Yang Chen due to poor management and unbearable losses. They kept a small portion of shares as a regular investment.

So at first glance, the United Hundred Group seems impressive, but in reality, they are weak inside. Their true strength is far from what people imagine.

In fact, the acquisition of the Longlian Supermarket Group’s shares for 1.5 billion was the most valuable "business" for the United Hundred Group at the time, while the combined value of other investment ventures was around 2 billion.

This made Li Yan Yun extremely happy.

She had always said Yang Chen had many good qualities, except for being poor.

In this materialistic era, being poor can overshadow all other advantages.

But now things have changed; Yang Chen is not only not poor, but also a billionaire capable of spending billions to acquire Longlian Supermarket Group.

Li Yan Yun had already thought of names for her five children with Yang Chen.

"Let’s go tell my dad, he’ll definitely agree to us being together now. Hehe..." Li Yan Yun said happily.

Yang Chen pulled his arm back and said, "Miss Li, I think you might have misunderstood. I never showed any interest in you. Just because you like me and want to date, doesn’t mean I have to accept. Right? Feelings are a two-way street; you chose me, but I didn’t choose you. This isn’t called love, at best it’s a lustful one-night stand."

Zhang Huiming burst into laughter and said, "Li Yan Yun, do you think everyone is like those sycophants who fawn over you? This guy’s a billionaire, why should he want to date you?"

"Shut up!" Li Yan Yun yelled.

Zhang Huiming continued to watch the drama unfold with a smile.

"Am I not pretty?" Li Yan Yun asked Yang Chen.

"You are pretty!" Yang Chen replied.

"Then why don’t you want to date me?" Li Yan Yun asked again.

"Love is about chemistry, and not necessarily about looks. There are plenty of pretty girls around me; should I want all of them because they’re pretty? Thank you, Miss Li, for your misguided affection, but you’re not my type," Yang Chen said mercilessly.

Yang Chen prefers sensible girls, like Yu Shishi and Wang Jiayi.

Girls like Wang Qian Ni and Li Yan Yun, who’ve never faced setbacks and expect everyone to accept them if they express interest, just don’t appeal to Yang Chen.

Moreover, Li Yan Yun tends to overreact dramatically, and whoever has her as a girlfriend is unlucky, destined for turmoil.

Li Yan Yun burst into tears; from being adored as a child, she finally approved of a man only for him to not reciprocate. It hurt her pride deeply.

"Yang Chen, I hate you!" Li Yan Yun cried and ran off.

"Crazy logic; just because you like me, I have to like you back? What kind of thinking is that!" Yang Chen couldn’t help but criticize.

Zhang Huiming laughed heartily and said, "Brother Chen is right; she’s used to everyone adoring her, never been rejected, and can’t handle it. Ignore her; how do you plan to deal with Zhou Bin? I’ll handle it. Sorry for earlier disrespectful remarks."

"Just smack him a couple of times as a warning, but don’t reveal my identity. Also, call Li Lianxiong, Zhou Hai, and Pu Chunhua over, I need to talk to them. Manager Cheng, arrange a room for me," Yang Chen said.

Cheng Dawu promptly replied, "Come to my office; I guarantee no one will disrupt us."

Yang Chen nodded.

Cheng Dawu told Zhang Huiming, "Young Master Zhang, bring them to my office later; I’ll head there first with Mr. Yang."

Zhang Huiming nodded and returned to Ballroom No. 1.

All the guests focused on Zhang Huiming.

Zhou Bin excitedly ran up and asked, "Brother Ming, what’s happening? Did that guy get beaten up badly?"

"Slap! Slap!"

Two crisp slaps landed on Zhou Bin’s cheeks, silencing the entire ballroom.

Zhou Hai rushed forward and asked, "Zhang Huiming, what do you mean by this? Why hit my son? He calls you Brother Ming all the time, and you treat him this way?"

Zhang Huiming chuckled coldly and replied, "I’m just helping you teach him to be a better person, to avoid thinking his few bucks can sway others."

Zhou Hai feared the United Hundred Group and, despite his anger, dared not act against Zhang Huiming.

Zhang Huiming’s behavior left everyone baffled; was he defending the rideshare driver?

But why?

What was so special about this rideshare driver? 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Could the driver have some mysterious background?

"Mr. Zhou Hai, Mr. Li Lianxiong, Mr. Pu Chunhua, please come with me!" Zhang Huiming said.

Zhou Hai and Li Lianxiong looked puzzled, wondering why Zhang Huiming was calling them away.

They were confused, but Pu Chunhua understood; it must be Yang Chen’s request.

Zhang Huiming escorted Pu Chunhua and the other two to Cheng Dawu’s office.

Afterward, Zhang Huiming and Cheng Dawu departed, leaving Yang Chen and the three men alone to talk in the office.

Zhou Hai asked warily, "Who are you, exactly?"

Yang Chen nodded to Pu Chunhua, who immediately grasped his cue and introduced, "Allow me to introduce, this is Mr. Yang, who recently acquired 45% of Longlian Supermarket Group from Baolian Group, now our biggest shareholder."
