"Fire!!!"
"Fire! Put it out quickly!"
"Everyone, put out the fire! It's on fire..."
Several exclamations came from outside.
Ye Chen and Wu Gaoshan, uncle and nephew, immediately became alert. A fire was no small matter, especially since the teahouse had a lot of wooden structures; once it caught fire, it would be extremely dangerous.
Just as Ye Chen and his nephew Wu Gaoshan were about to run out, the door to the private room was suddenly flung open from the outside.
Immediately afterwards, a rather comical bald man rushed in with a fire extinguisher, shouting:
"There's a fire somewhere in the room! There's a fire somewhere! I'll put it out..."
The people inside the room were somewhat bewildered by what they saw.
The room is on fire?!
They were having a nice conversation, how could there be a fire? Just now someone outside was shouting that there was a fire.
"There's no fire in the room, Mr. Zhang, you've gone too far with your act."
Wu Gaoshan said with a cold smile.
The bald man was Zhang Lifeng, who had just given Wu Gaoshan a one-yuan tip in front of the teahouse.
Upon hearing Wu Gaoshan's words, a flicker of panic crossed Zhang Lifeng's face, but he quickly regained his composure and asked in return:
"Mr. Wu, what do you mean? I don't understand."
"not understand?"
Wu Gaoshan expressed his opinion.
"First of all, there were shouts of fire outside, but nothing happened here. Why did you choose our private room when there are so many other private rooms in the teahouse?"
"Secondly, why was there a fire, but we didn't see any flames or even a wisp of smoke? Everything outside the teahouse seemed normal and peaceful."
Wu Gaoshan questioned Zhang Lifeng.
How would I know?
Zhang Lifeng put down the fire extinguisher and then naturally stood in an empty seat next to Ye Chen.
"Hello, Mr. Yuan, I am Zhang Lifeng, the owner of Fengyuan Co., Ltd..."
Zhang Lifeng introduced himself to Ye Chen with a fawning smile. He went to all this trouble just to find a legitimate excuse to enter the private room.
Now that he's in, even if the King of Heaven himself came, he couldn't possibly kick him out. He wants to prevent Wu Gaoshan and Young Master Yuan from getting to know each other, thereby causing President Yuan and Wu Gaoshan to cooperate.
"Young Master Yuan? What Young Master Yuan?"
Ye Chen did not shake hands with Zhang Lifeng; he even called him by the wrong surname.
"ah?"
Zhang Lifeng was stunned.
"That's right, this is Young Master Ye, not Young Master Yuan. Young Master Ye's surname is Ye."
Wu Gaoshan explained that he understood; Zhang Lifeng had probably mistaken Young Master Ye for President Yuan's son.
"Exactly, what Yuan Shao? You've been reading too much Romance of the Three Kingdoms. If you're Yuan Shao, then I'm Cao Cao."
Wu Xingmo, who had always disliked Zhang Lifeng, spoke up.
"Young Master Ye, aren't you President Yuan's son?!"
Zhang Lifeng angrily questioned Ye Chen.
"My surname is Ye, and I don't know any General Manager Yuan."
Ye Chen answered.
"Damn it, I wasted my time. Why aren't you Mr. Yuan's son? You've wasted my energy."
Zhang Lifeng had a look on his face as if he had eaten shit.
"I'm so thirsty from shouting."
After saying that, he sat down and began to pour himself some tea.
"Wu Gaoshan, are you out of your mind? This kid isn't even President Yuan's son, why are you acting like this?"
While drinking tea, Zhang Lifeng forgot to complain about Ye Chen.
"And what are you pretending for? I thought you were some big shot."
He also made a few sarcastic remarks about Ye Chen.
"Zhang Lifeng, how dare you! Don't even mention Mr. Yuan's son, even if Mr. Yuan himself were here, he wouldn't be worthy to carry Mr. Ye's shoes!!!"
Seeing Zhang Lifeng's rudeness, Wu Gaoshan immediately reprimanded him.
"What?"
"What did you say? Even President Yuan isn't worthy to carry his shoes? Him?"
Zhang Lifeng suddenly turned his head and looked Ye Chen up and down with a look of disdain, but he couldn't see anything different about Ye Chen.
"What, you don't believe me?"
Ye Chen slowly sat down and asked in return.
"Nonsense, of course I don't believe it. Who is President Yuan, and who are you?"
Zhang Lifeng's answer was full of confidence.
"If you said this kid's status was similar to that of President Yuan's son, that would be one thing, but to say that even if President Yuan came, he wouldn't be worthy of carrying his shoes is giving him too much credit."
Zhang Lifeng said to Wu Gaoshan, clearly looking down on Wu Gaoshan's judgment.
This kid is too young, ridiculously young. He's probably just a rich kid or something. He doesn't believe Wu Gaoshan's nonsense.
Does he think he's easy to fool?!
"By the way, you dare to insult President Yuan. Very well, very well. I will tell President Yuan in a moment that this opportunity to cooperate with President Yuan is mine."
Zhang Lifeng was overjoyed. He thought he had wasted his time by mistaking the person, but he didn't expect to have an unexpected gain. Wu Gaoshan, that fool, dared to look down on President Yuan. Now the opportunity to cooperate with President Yuan's company is his.
Hahahaha!!!
Seeing Zhang Lifeng's petty smugness, Wu Gaoshan looked at him with disdain. Zhang Lifeng's vision was only limited to President Yuan.
If he has General Manager Ye as his backer, what does General Manager Yuan or any cooperation matter?
At this moment, Wu Gaoshan became serious, looked at Ye Chen respectfully, and said:
"Zhang Lifeng, sitting before you right now is Ye Chen, the largest shareholder and CEO of Kaiyun Group, the future owner of a game company, and the top-ranked young entrepreneur in Shanghai... Mr. Ye!!!"
