Chapter 131: Chapter 131 Something is Wrong_1
Ye San went straight to the point. "Ye Fei, you’re clever enough, but you’re just too lazy," he said.
"Qi Ming has made some achievements in business, you should have a good chat with him. Maybe he could guide you."
"Go offer him a toast; maybe if Qi Ming’s happy, he’ll find you some work on the spot!"
Zhao Qiming laughed heartily, waving his hands repeatedly.
The crowd quieted down at these words, all eyes on Ye Fei.
If Ye Fei were to toast, it would undoubtedly be an act of submission.
Yet Ye Fei remained unmoved, his fingers idly tracing the rim of his cup.
Who was there to guide him?
What a joke.
Ye Fei smiled and said, "No need, you guys keep on with your chat, don’t mind me."
"What are you saying?" Ye San immediately grew unhappy upon hearing this.
This Ye Fei kid had shown off by buying tea bricks for the Ye Family’s old master, then he didn’t listen to Ye Shoutian.
Now, was he openly defying Ye San?
Hmph, he was not so tempered!
"Ye Fei, what’s this all about? Do I really have to teach you a lesson today?"
Ye Fei was taken aback and then felt indignant inside.
How interesting. Here he was quietly eating and it was them who kept chattering away—had he ever said a word to them?
"Uncle San, what do you mean by that?" he asked.
"How dare you ask me what I mean?" Ye San was furious. "Look at the way you’re talking to me! I’m your uncle!"
Someone chimed in at that moment: "Ye Fei, you’re being too cocky. From the moment you came in, look at what you’ve done."
"Yeah, what’s with the pretense? Even confronting your own family?"
"So what if you have some dirty money, you didn’t earn it. If you made money like Boss Zhao, we wouldn’t say anything, but you’re just living off a woman!"
The angry chastising continued until a child suddenly burst out crying. "He even ate my fried meatballs! Aaaaah!"
Ye Fei took a deep breath and saw Su Yueru signaling him with her eyes.
He understood; his wife couldn’t stand it anymore.
He had intended to keep a low profile at the wedding and then head home.
But he hadn’t expected to draw so much animosity.
Ye Fei then stood up and picked up a glass of wine.
He slowly walked forward, arriving in front of Zhao Qiming with a faint smile on his lips.
"Boss Zhao... It’s all my fault. This toast is for you!" Having said that, Ye Fei drank the wine in one gulp.
Zhao Qiming, seeing this, felt a surge of delight inside.
Ye Fei looked like a proud man, and now Zhao had managed to tame him, which felt like an incredible achievement.
Zhao Qiming admired himself at that moment.
Then, Ye Fei suddenly asked, "Would you mind telling me what kind of business you do in Shang Hai? I’d like to learn more."
Zhao Qiming laughed heartily at the question.
"I told you it’s finance, but even if I go into specifics, you wouldn’t understand," he chuckled.
But Ye Fei responded, "You undervalue me. I’ve read up a little; I’ve heard something about finance. Boss Zhao, let us in on it, everyone wants to hear!"
With that, everyone’s ears pricked up.
Zhao Qiming’s face showed signs of embarrassment as he said with an awkward smile, "Finance, well... it involves investing money in industries, stock trading, and such—it’s complicated, you wouldn’t get it."
"I get it, actually. I came across this back in Jiang Yang!" Ye Fei laughed.
"I’ve learned a bit about investment and stock trading. What company did you invest in, Boss Zhao? How’s the yield?"
Zhao Qiming’s face grew increasingly uncomfortable, his mouth twitching.
"Why are you asking so much? My investments are confidential! Besides, haven’t I said that it earns me several tens of millions a year?"
Zhao Qiming’s words were just a few repeated phrases filled with evasiveness.
Everyone there wasn’t a fool; they started to have their doubts now.
Sensing their skepticism, Zhao Qiming quickly said, "Ye Fei, don’t worry, we’re all family here, and I’ll definitely help you out in the future."
"You married into the Su Family, right? You must have been looked down upon quite a bit."
"Don’t worry, now that you’ve met me, you’ll make it big. I’ll just make a call when I get back, and you’ll become the chairman of the Su Family company!"
Chairman?
Upon hearing this, Su Yueru, who was by the side sipping her tea, almost spat it out.
Pretending not to know, Ye Fei asked with a smile, "Boss Zhao, what’s a chairman? I’ve never heard of that, have you?"
"You really don’t know? A chairman is the one who runs a company. Don’t worry, it’s just a phone call away for me," Zhao Qiming explained confidently.
"I have many friends in Shang Hai, and I’ve been to Tian He too, it’s all small stuff. Don’t thank me; we’re family after all!"
The moment his words fell, everyone began to look envious.
With just a single sentence, Ye Fei would become something called a chairman.
How impressive was that!
However, Ye Fei then asked, "But then, Boss Zhao, what’s a president and what’s a general manager? Which is higher than a chairman?"
Zhao Qiming’s expression froze, clearly becoming flustered: "Why all these questions? Just wait for my message when you get back."
At that point, Ye Fei finally said, "You don’t mean to tell me, Boss Zhao, that you can’t distinguish between these positions?"
"Aren’t you an investor? Shouldn’t you have been a director at some point? How do you not know what a chairman is?"
Even the guests at the dinner table sensed that something was amiss.
It seemed that Ye Fei knew much more than this big boss, didn’t he?
