Chapter 58 (1/2)
The couple was barbecuing.
When Ye Chen and Sun Yi arrived at their doorstep, they realized Uncle Wang and Aunt Zhang were busy.
Naturally, Aunt Zhang’s attention went straight to Ye Chen and the lady beside him.
When she saw Sun Yi, her jaw dropped. Never in a million years would she had guessed that she would see two goddess-like ladies in a day.
“You’re finally here, Chen. Oh no, why did you invite a big somebody over to our place? They’re probably used to eating in grand hotels, how could you bring them to a shabby place like this…” Aunt Zhang was still nervous and worried about the standard of their food. She was afraid that it was not up to their standards and might accidentally sour Ye Chen’s important meeting.
Ye Chen smiled, waved his hand and said, “It’s no problem. I didn’t invite him over just to discuss things with him. Aunt Zhang, don’t you think I’ve eaten enough times to know how good your food is? I guarantee it’ll make that guy drool!”
Aunt Zhang was flattered from the compliment. She twisted her shirt as she looked toward Sun Yi and asked, “Chen, is this your… Why does she look so familiar…”
Ye Chen was about to explain when Sun Yi walked toward Aunt Zhang and exclaimed, “Aunt Zhang, it really is you! Is Uncle Wang inside? You must’ve forgotten who I am. Five years ago, I was one of your frequent customers at your food stall…”
Aunt Zhang still could not recall who she was when she heard Sun Yi’s words. All she could do was smile and say, “I didn’t expect to see such a beautiful lady that was, in fact, one of my previous customers… Not to mention, I didn’t expect Chen and you to still be together after graduation. This is good…”
After Sun Yi was complimented about how sweet they were together, she ran into the kitchen to say hi to Uncle Wang.
Ye Chen did not want to explain further anyways so he walked toward the open private room door. When he looked in, he saw Shen Haihua and Shen Mengjia sitting inside while a man in a suit was sitting in the corner who was most probably the chauffeur.
When Shen Haihua saw Ye Chen emerging from the door, he was super excited!
It was because not only did he notice that his terminal illness was cured, all the small problems that plagued him were all gone!
Seeing Ye Chen for him was like seeing someone who had saved his life.
“Mr. Ye, you’re finally here! Please, let me toast three shots of liquor to thank you for saving my life!”
When Shen Haihua finished his sentence, he poured three shots of liquor and drank them one after another with eagerness and joy.
“Dad, don’t drink so much, you just recovered…” Shen Mengjia advised.
In fact, she was quite surprised because, since the time she was young, other people were the ones drinking to her dad. However, it was the opposite now with her dad already drinking three shots even before Ye Chen managed to sit down.
This meant the utmost respect toward Ye Chen.
Ye Chen did not think Shen Haihua would make such a gesture so he returned one toast to him as well.
Behind was Sun Yi carefully holding a plate of food as she walked inside. When she placed the food down on the table, she proceeded to sit on Ye Chen’s right-hand side.
Since she sat on that spot, it would seem that Ye Chen was surrounded by gorgeous ladies with Shen Mengjia and Sun Yi sitting beside him.
Naturally, Shen Haihua had met Sun Yi previously. It was only then when he realized the lady his daughter mentioned that afternoon was, in fact, Sun Yi.
He hired someone to place a background check on Sun Yi and could not help but lament how good Sun Yi’s life was when he found out about her. Not to mention how lucky she was to have climbed up this gigantic dragon that was about to shoot for the skies.
If Ye Chen were to fully level up, Sun Yi would be the phoenix on the branch soon.
Therefore, his daughter ought to pick up the pace.
He winked at Shen Mengjia as he said “Mengjia, you’re around the same age as Mr. Ye and Ms. Sun right? Keep in contact more in the future. It’s a good time to learn from them. Why don’t you give a toast to Mr. Ye and Ms. Sun?”
Shen Mengjia’s eyed widened. She was already hostile toward Sun Yi. How could her dad make her toast?
Did that not mean she was bowing down to that woman?
She was about to reject the idea when a shrill voice came from the outside.
“That little bitch Sun Yi? What’s her business sneaking around here?”
When they heard the voice, the people seated felt some uneasiness.
