488 The Ye Family’s Birthday!
At this moment, Ye Xuan had already changed into a suit. To be precise, he had been changed by his mother, Sun Xiaoqin. His bow tie was neatly tied and had a slight slant. He looked dignified with a hint of cuteness, making his sisters’ eyes light up. They ran up to rub Ye Xuan’s face and smiled slightly. Their mood improved a little.
Seeing that everyone was ready, Ye Hongliang didn’t waste any time. He picked up his leather business bag and waved his hand.
“Let’s go take a walk. We’ll be back after taking a walk.”
As he spoke, he took the lead and walked out of the door. He led everyone into the elevator and out of the hotel.
Then, he hailed a taxi and went straight to the Old Master’s villa.
The news of the birthday banquet of the Ye family in Shanghai spread like wildfire. Everyone in Shanghai knew about it. All the famous people had received invitations and went there today. The luxurious and grand atmosphere covered Shanghai with a layer of purple aura that shone under the sun.
At the villa of the Ye family’s Old Master, when one looked down, the entire villa was surrounded by eight circles of flowers. Petals and confetti were scattered everywhere. At a glance, it looked very solemn. It was grand but not flashy, and it was very shocking.
In front of the villa’s gate, there were already all kinds of luxury cars parked. Among them, there were Rolls-Royces, Bugatti Veyrons, Bentleys, Maybachs, and various models. The entire front yard was filled.
Outside the front yard, cars were arriving at the villa one after another. There was an endless stream. Those who could drive such a car were all famous people in Shanghai. Otherwise, even if one had the financial resources, they would not dare to drive such a luxury car over on this day.
Sometimes, one could not drive an expensive luxury car to a banquet just because they had a little money. There was also something called status.
In other words, if someone with a higher net worth than one drove a Wuling, they could only drive a second-hand car. If they drove a Rolls-Royce over, they would be too insensitive. After all, in China, all generations were particular about one word — rules.
However, it was fine as long as there was not much difference. There was no need to be too exaggerated. If they were too exaggerated, it would backfire and make people feel uncomfortable.
After the luxury cars stopped, the CEOs alighted proudly under the chauffeur’s respectful manner of opening the door. They arrived at the entrance of the villa. They were wearing branded custom-made suits and smoking cigars. Their hair was slicked with wax. Beside them was a secretary who specially carried their bags and coats. The CEOs each had a handlebar mustache and was smoking cigars as they greeted the other CEOs.
“CEO Gu! It’s been a long time. How have you been?”
“Aiyo, CEO Li, it’s been a long time since we last met. You look much more energetic. The company has been in good shape recently. I heard that the stock price has risen to the limit.”
“It’s alright. CEO Gu’s methods are brilliant. During the previous bidding, that rotten piece of land was really reborn under CEO Gu’s hands. Now, it has become the second-largest Century Plaza. We’re really envious.”
“Damn, I accidentally created that. At that time, I was about to sell it and wanted to try something casually. I didn’t expect it to succeed. It’s also luck. Hey, isn’t this CEO Zhang? Aiya, CEO Zhang, hello, CEO Zhang. Long time no see.”
“CEO Gu is so imposing. His entire body is glowing. One look and I can tell that CEO Gu’s company’s data this year is going to break the previous record.”
“I’m just a child playing house. CEO Zhang’s company is still bigger. There are already five companies under your company now, right? If CEO Zhang continues like this, we won’t be able to eat in the future. It’s fine if you let us have some soup.”
“Don’t flatter me. I’m in the Internet industry. How can I be as stable as you guys in the physical industry? We have to do more projects. We need to take advantage of this opportunity and quickly fish more. Otherwise, I won’t be able to wear my underpants!”
“Hehehe, President CEO is so humorous. Alright, let’s go. Let’s go and celebrate the Old Master’s birthday. I specially brought a ginseng that I’ve treasured for many years today. I can use it to celebrate the Old Master’s birthday.”
“CEO Gu is so generous. I also received a deer antler. I can give it to the Old Master.”
“All the CEOs are so imposing. I’m more tacky. I didn’t bring much. I only brought a few boxes of caterpillar fungus. I hired someone to dig them up on the mountain last year. It’s not anything valuable.”
“Hehehe, everyone came prepared. Come, let’s go in together. We have a companion.”
“CEOs, please!”
“CEO Zhang, please go ahead!”
“Please!”
…
Just as the CEOs were about to enter the villa, a yellow taxi arrived outside.
The taxi driver had just turned onto this road. He was originally shocked when he saw that these guests were going to the villa area. Now, when he saw the luxurious convoy at the entrance of the villa in the distance, he was even more shocked. It made him subconsciously turn his head to look at the people in gowns in the backseat. Even his gaze changed.
When the people at the entrance of the villa saw the taxi arrive at the entrance of the villa, they immediately stopped in their tracks. They felt a little puzzled and displeased as they criticized in their hearts.
“Did this taxi come to the wrong place or something?”
“I don’t think so. It came straight here. But which CEO is this? He actually took a taxi here. Did his chauffeur take leave?”
“Who doesn’t have a few chauffeurs on shifts? Who is this? It’s the birthday of the Ye family’s Old Master, but they took a taxi here? Isn’t this a little too unruly?”
“That’s indeed not right. This is the first time I’ve seen such a person. They’re really unreasonable. I wonder who they are.”
“I’m amused. Taking a taxi to attend the birthday banquet? Which genius is this? I have to take a good look and think about it.”
“At the very least, they can just rent a car. No, who is so poor that they actually took a taxi? I feel that they don’t care about the Old Master.”
“It’s a little disrespectful. It’s really rude.”
“They’re so unreasonable even at a birthday banquet. It’s hard to imagine what kind of quality the people inside have.”
“There are really weirdos every year. Damn, I’m not surprised anymore.”
Everyone was discussing this matter fervently. At this moment, the crowd suddenly started to separate from the front, leaving a path.
At the end of the road was Ye Hai. Everyone immediately shifted their gazes from the taxi to Ye Hai and praised him.
“Hello, Brother Hai. You must be busy inside now.”
“Brother Hai is indeed tired today. It’s such a big banquet.”
“Brother Hai, are you used to the taste of cigars? Come and try one. It’s an imported Cuban cigar. It tastes very good and has an endless aftertaste.”
“It’s a little hot today. Doesn’t Brother Hai feel hot standing here? Secretary Liu, go fan Brother Hai to dissipate the heat. It’ll be terrible if he gets a heatstroke.”
