Ye Chen smiled lightly and shook his head, "I went to the Xiao family this time just to celebrate my birthday. I gave gifts and left after dinner, so there is no need to go to such trouble."
"You'd better tell me what Mr. Xiao is interested in, so that I can prepare gifts!"
Seeing Ye Chen's calm attitude, Hanfeng stopped trying to persuade him and told him about Mr. Xiao's love of wine and chess.
After Ye Chen wrote it down, he spent half a day preparing before boarding the flight to Kuncheng, Yun Province.
He calculated the time and decided to go to Kuncheng to celebrate Mr. Xiao's birthday this time. After that, it would be about a week as he had agreed with Colonel Cui, and it would be the time for him to join "Dragon Blade" as the chief instructor.
He called Colonel Cui and Secretary Chu respectively, explained his itinerary, and asked them to pick him up in Kuncheng on time.
"You bastard, how dare you kill my own son, Mr. Ye, what a Mr. Ye from Sichuan Province!"
At the same time, in a villa in the capital of Shanxi Province, a middle-aged man suddenly smashed a million-dollar vase in his hand to pieces. His face was ferocious, as if he was about to choose someone to eat.
In front of him was Huang Xinghai's twisted and cold body. A woman was throwing herself on Huang Xinghai's body, crying so hard that she couldn't make a sound.
Seeing this scene, he almost went crazy!
Although Huang Xinghai is not his only son, he is the most favored one among his sons and the one with the most business talent among his sons. He also wants to gradually cultivate and transfer the huge Huangmeng International in the future.
He was given management, but the sad news of Huang Xinghai's death came soon after.
"Huang Guosheng, I don't care what method you use, I want that man named Ye to die, and I want him to die without a burial place!"
The woman raised her head, her eyes full of resentment and resentment, and she wanted to tear Ye Chen into pieces.
Huang Guosheng's eyes were gloomy and he nodded heavily. Although Ye Chen dominated Sichuan Province and was the most popular chairman of Lingtian Group in China today, Huang Meng International under him was no less generous.
He is bound to make Ye Chen pay a heavy price!
"Xinghai, don't worry, dad will definitely avenge you!"
His eyes were serious. Just now, he had already talked on the phone with Shen Rong, the chairman of Shengrong Group. The two of them had the same problem. They both lost their beloved children and regarded Ye Chen as a life-and-death enemy.
This time, the two behemoths of the Huang family and the Shen family join forces, and they are bound to drag Ye Chen into the abyss of eternal destruction.
"Mr. Ye from Sichuan Province, this time, I want you to pay with blood!"
Killing intent flashed in his eyes, and the anger between his brows became heavier.
At the entrance of Kuncheng Airport, Gu Mengyao was dressed in cool clothes and thick sunglasses, covering half of her appearance, but Ye Chen recognized her at first sight.
"Brother Ye Chen!"
Seeing Ye Chen appear, Gu Mengyao smiled and waved to Ye Chen.
"Should we go directly to Xiao's house now, or go later?"
Ye Chen, carrying a simple shoulder bag, looked like a college student traveling lightly, and asked with a smile.
"Let's go directly. Grandma told me on the phone just now that a cousin will come to pick us up. We should be at the airport soon!"
Gu Mengyao smiled sweetly.
"Is that so?"
Ye Chen nodded and sat chatting with Gu Mengyao by the fence. After more than ten minutes, Gu Mengyao's phone rang. She answered the phone and said a few words politely. Within a minute, a young man in a green shirt appeared.
appeared in front of them.
The young man has a handsome face, looks very honest and elegant, has a slight smile, is extremely gentle, and is dressed meticulously, giving him the appearance of a successful person.
Next to him, stood a pretty and charming beauty with straight and slender legs, whose appearance was only slightly inferior to Gu Mengyao's. She was smiling and nodding at them.
"Is she cousin Mengyao?"
The young man looked at Gu Mengyao. Although he had seen Gu Mengyao many times on TV, he was not sure because Gu Mengyao was wearing sunglasses at the moment.
"It's me, are you cousin Xiao Lin?"
Gu Mengyao smiled and nodded, pulling down her sunglasses a little. The young man named Xiao Lin smiled and nodded, making a gesture of invitation.
"Cousin Mengyao, let's go, the car is over there!"
Gu Mengyao responded and put her hands around Ye Chen's arm: "Brother Ye Chen, let's go!"
Just as Ye Chen stood up, the young man and woman noticed him. Seeing how close Gu Mengyao and Ye Chen were, their expressions were startled and their expressions changed at the same time.
Although Ye Chen and Gu Mengyao were sitting together before, they were sitting on separate benches. In addition, Ye Chen was dressed simply. Apart from a brand-name sportswear, he only carried an ordinary shoulder bag.
The shoulder bag made the young men and women who arrived automatically filter Ye Chen.
Now Gu Mengyao held Ye Chen's arm, and they noticed Ye Chen just now.
An imperceptible worry flashed in the young man's eyes, which quickly disappeared, and he asked Gu Mengyao:
"Cousin Mengyao, who is this?"
Gu Mengyao held Ye Chen's arm and smiled sweetly.
"Cousin Xiao Lin, this is Ye Chen, my...brother!"
When she said the word "brother", she paused slightly.
When the young man named Xiao Lin heard this, his expression was slightly startled and he said strangely.
"Brother? Does aunt have a son?"
Xiao He left the Xiao family when he was just born. Although he was not very familiar with Xiao He, he did know a lot from the side. He only knew that Xiao He had a daughter, Gu Mengyao. When did Gu Mengyao have another daughter?
An older brother? And why is his surname Ye?
"This..." Gu Mengyao didn't know how to answer and was stunned on the spot. Ye Chen stretched out his palm to Xiao Lin at the right time with a faint smile on his face.
"Cousin Xiao Lin, right? When we first met, I am Aunt Xiao's adopted son!"
He was an undefeated emperor. When had he ever taken the initiative to shake hands with anyone? Even when he faced official visitors, he looked down upon them. The reason why he was so polite to Xiao Lin at this moment was purely because of Xiao He.
"Adopted son?"
Xiao Lin's eyes changed again, and the worry deep in his eyes flashed again, but he still held a friendly hand with Ye Chen.
"Hello, it's our first time meeting you!" Xiao Lin nodded slightly. "You are my aunt's adopted son, so you are my cousin. Do you mind if I call you cousin Ye Chen?"
Ye Chen smiled lightly and shook his head: "Of course!"
At this moment, the beautiful woman beside Xiao Lin took a step forward and smiled at Ye Chen and Gu Mengyao, very kindly.
"Ye Chen, Mengyao, hello, I am Xiao Lin's girlfriend, my name is Liang Rong!"
"Ah, it turns out to be my cousin-in-law!"
Gu Mengyao smiled sweetly and waved, and Ye Chen also smiled and nodded at her, very politely.
The four of them looked at each other and smiled. Xiao Lin took Ye Chen and Gu Mengyao to his car, which was a silver Mercedes-Benz S.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the Xiao family manor first!"
Xiao Lin said hello, stepped on the accelerator, and the Mercedes-Benz drove away from the airport.
On the way, Xiao Lin concentrated on driving, but Liang Rong was very talkative and chatted with Ye Chen and Gu Mengyao. She pretended to casually ask about the true relationship between Gu Mengyao and Ye Chen. Gu Mengyao didn't worry and told everything.
"It turned out to be a child picked up from the mountains!"
Liang Rong had a calm expression on her face, but she had secretly remembered it in her heart. Although Xiao Lin was driving, he kept every detail in mind and didn't forget anything.
"Aunt's adopted son?"
He was thinking a lot, looking at Gu Mengyao smiling sweetly at Ye Chen in the rearview mirror, shaking his head secretly.
"Ye Chen, you really shouldn't come to grandpa's seventieth birthday!"
About half an hour later, the Mercedes-Benz S drove into a waterside villa and a manor on the bank of the Li River. It was built near the water, covering a large area and looking toward the southwest. It was the residence of the Xiao family in Yunnan Province.
In front of the gate of the Xiao family manor, there is a simple huge stone with eight vigorous and powerful characters written on it.
