Zhang Qiang felt extremely superior to Ye Chen.
This stems from the fact that his father is the chairman of the Zhang Group, who has money, connections, and power.
It was a rare opportunity to meet the famous Fourth Master.
In his excitement, Zhang Qiang also wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of Ye Chen, his rival in love.
"Ye Chen, Ye Chen, this is not my fault."
"Blame it on yourself for not knowing your place," Zhang Qiang thought to himself with a sinister glint in his eyes.
Zhang Qiang looked at Hong Sihai with a fawning expression.
"Fourth Master, your arrival tonight is truly an honor and a great blessing to me."
"My admiration for Fourth Master is boundless."
"I am honored to have met Fourth Master tonight. I can die without regrets..."
Hong Sihai frowned slightly.
He disliked Zhang Qiang's obsequious flattery to no end, but he did so because Ye Chen was present.
Ye Chen watched Zhang Qiang flatter Hong Sihai with a half-smile.
Such forced flattery will only backfire.
"Fourth Master, there are some things I'm unsure whether I should say."
Zhang Qiang looked at Hong Sihai, calculating how to maximize his profits.
"What did you say?" Hong Sihai asked.
"Fourth Master, I'm afraid these words might upset you, so..." Zhang Qiang hesitated, then stopped.
“Speak freely,” Hong Sihai said.
Seeing that the time was right, Zhang Qiang spoke up, "Fourth Master, Ye Chen has been disrespectful to you."
The room fell silent immediately upon hearing this.
Hong Sihai raised an eyebrow, a strange look on his face.
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes at this.
"What do you mean?" Hong Sihai looked at Zhang Qiang calmly.
When Zhang Qiang heard Hong Sihai ask that question, he was immediately delighted.
"Fourth Master, you are unaware of this, but even before you arrived, Ye Chen was extremely disrespectful to you."
"He actually said you were his little brother."
“I could sense his disdain for the Fourth Master from his words.”
"In other words, he never took the Fourth Master seriously from beginning to end."
"No, Fourth Master, don't listen to Zhang Qiang's nonsense. Ye Chen didn't do it."
Lin Ruoxi immediately spoke, her brows furrowed with urgency.
Lin Ruoxi was unaware of the relationship between Ye Chen and Hong Sihai.
Hong Sihai is a formidable figure, and if he were to take his anger out on Ye Chen, the consequences would be unimaginable.
While Lin Ruoxi was anxious and worried, she was also very angry at Zhang Qiang's despicable behavior.
This is clearly a scheme to kill someone using another's knife.
"Ruoxi, how could I be talking nonsense?"
"Just now, Ye Chen even referred to Fourth Master as Little Fourth, and said that Little Fourth was like a younger brother to him."
"Uncle and Aunt, including Ruoxi herself, you heard it too."
"Fourth Master, everything I said is true," Zhang Qiang said firmly.
Hearing Zhang Qiang say this, Lin Ruoxi became even more anxious and worried.
"Fourth Master, Ye Chen didn't mean that, you..."
As she spoke, Lin Ruoxi didn't know how to continue.
Because Ye Chen did say those words just now, and they are true.
Qin Xiulian and Lin Sanguo remained silent.
Firstly, Zhang Qiang wasn't lying, and secondly, they couldn't get anywhere with Hong Sihai.
Hong Sihai is not stupid; on the contrary, he is very smart.
From Zhang Qiang's words, Hong Sihai immediately deduced that Zhang Qiang and Ye Chen did not get along.
Zhang Qiang said all these things in front of him simply to anger him so that he would take action against Ye Chen. He had a very clever plan.
Zhang Qiang simply chose the wrong person.
Hong Sihai felt that Ye Chen was right; in Ye Chen's eyes, he was indeed like a younger brother.
Even if Ye Chen attacked him, Hong Sihai dared not put up any resistance.
Ye Chen's formidable strength and the debt of gratitude he owed him had long since won him over.
As long as Ye Chen gives the order, Hong Sihai will not hesitate to act as a pawn.
Upon realizing how despicable Zhang Qiang was, Hong Sihai's face immediately darkened.
Zhang Qiang was secretly pleased to see this, thinking that Hong Sihai was angry with Ye Chen.
This was incredibly good news for Zhang Qiang.
"Ye Chen, Ye Chen, I'll teach you to be arrogant and conceited."
"This time, even the Heavenly King himself can't save you," Zhang Qiang thought smugly.
Hong Sihai's face darkened.
His powerful aura enveloped the entire room, making everyone feel an invisible increase in pressure.
Qin Xiulian and Lin Sanguo were under immense pressure, their hearts pounding in their chests.
Faced with such a powerful figure, both of them were somewhat flustered.
"Fourth Master, Ye Chen has always been arrogant and disdainful of others."
“I’m really angry that he disrespected you,” Zhang Qiang said again.
"In my heart, Fourth Master is a highly respected person."
"But Ye Chen dared to be so disrespectful; such a person must be taught a profound lesson."
"Zhang Qiang, shut up!" Lin Ruoxi shouted anxiously.
"Fourth Master, don't listen to his nonsense, it's just a misunderstanding."
"That's not what Ye Chen meant; Zhang Qiang is completely distorting the facts."
"Ye Chen still has great respect for Fourth Master, really..."
Lin Ruoxi desperately tried to explain to Hong Sihai, as she was terrified that Hong Sihai would take his anger out on Ye Chen.
"Fourth Master, please calm down..."
Zhang Qiang was very unhappy to see Lin Ruoxi making excuses for Ye Chen.
Why is that? What makes Ye Chen better than him?
He had been pursuing Lin Ruoxi for so long, and this time he even helped Lin Ruoxi solve the problem of being suppressed by Sihai Group, but she still didn't give him a good look.
In contrast, Ye Chen has always been favored by Lin Ruoxi.
Zhang Qiang grew angrier the more he thought about it; he was determined not to miss this opportunity.
"Fourth Master, everything I said is true."
“Ye Chen has indeed been very disrespectful to you,” Zhang Qiang said in a deep voice, then looked at Lin Ruoxi.
