My Wife is a Beautiful CEO
chapter-219

The next day, Yang Chen was still lying in his bed when he received a phone call from Yuan Ye, the youngster who couldn’t hold back his loneliness.

“Yang Chen, are you awake?” Yuan Ye was in a good mood, it seemed like his twentieth birthday was a wonderful thing to him, and he hasn’t started feeling the dejection of his upcoming thirties.

Yang Chen yawned, “How can I pick up your call if I’m asleep?”

“That’s good then, I’ll come and pick you later. I reckon that you wouldn’t be able to find my home’s address even if you tried.” Said Yuan ye.

Yang Chen was indeed unfamiliar with many roads. Since Lin Ruoxi labelled the Yuan Family as the strongest in Zhonghai, he could understand that the address of their residence was a little different.

“Do you know where I stay?” Asked Yang Chen.

“I don’t, that’s why I’m calling to ask.”

“Dragon Garden number 89. Give me a call once you arrive, I’m going to lie down for a little longer.” Saying that Yang Chen was about to hang up.

“Hold on!” Yuan Ye happily said, “I’ve already arrived. Actually, I’m just calling to confirm that.”

Yang Chen’s jaw dropped. Thinking for a moment, he said, “It must be that brat Tangtang who told you my address.”

“Hehe, you guessed correctly. I’ll be picking up Tangtang after you. Her mother is very strict, if no ones goes to pick her up, it’d be difficult for her to leave house.” Yuan Ye seemed joyful in her misery.

“You seem very happy, is it because you’re relieved that she wouldn’t have the opportunity to be with other men?” Yang Chen laughed and asked.

“You guessed correctly, haha. Quickly come down.”

Although he didn’t meet Yuan Ye much in real life, after playing games and chatting online, the two had become familiar with each other, so he could loosen up when speaking to Yuan Ye. This was something Yang Chen enjoyed, for it was pretty rare for him to have a younger male friend.

After putting on his clothes, Yang Chen shaved his beard so that he wouldn’t appear too unkempt, then went downstairs.

Downstairs, Wang Ma had already prepared breakfast. There were western sandwiches, ham, and milk. Yang Chen casually picked up three sandwiches, then told Wang Ma that he’s going out.

Wang Ma quickly stopped Yang Chen, “Young Master wait, are you going to the Yuan Family member’s birthday party?”

“That’s right, is something the matter?”

Wang Ma was beaming as she walked over to the staircase and picked up a beautiful red gift bag. She passed it to Yang Chen, “This is something Miss asked to be prepared yesterday. It was delivered today, and it’s for you to gift, Young Master. Things that the important people in the Yuan Family likes are all inside.”

Setting aside how Lin Ruoxi knew what the Yuan Family people liked, Yang Chen noticed that this wife of his becomes incredibly enthusiastic whenever she bumps into something that could help advance his career.

Simply based on her trait of trying to turn her husband into a successful dragon, Lin Ruoxi could be considered a model for traditional women.

“Alright.” Yang Chen naturally had no reason to decline. He opened the bag slightly to peek inside, and there were labels on every gift with a different name on each of them. Lin Ruoxi seemed to have thought of everything.

Outside the house, there was a white BMW 335i parked. As Yun Ye needed to pick up two people, he couldn’t drive his flamboyant Audi R8 that only had two seats.

Yang Chen opened the front passenger door, and placed the presents at the back seat.

The handsome Yuan Ye who wore a pressed suit seemed a hundred times more charismatic than usual. Seeing the bag of presents Yang Chen brought, he couldn’t help but laugh and say, “I find it hard to believe that you actually brought a bag of presents.”

“What, I can’t give presents?” Yang Chen asked unhappily.

“You don’t seem like the kind of person who considers such things, I was expecting you to have a meal at my house empty handed, then try to return home early.” Yuan Ye honestly answered.

Yang Chen had a straight face as he said, “It’s prepared by my wife, I can’t possibly brush away her good intentions. A youngster like you wouldn’t understand the sense of responsibility in a marriage.”

Yuan Ye laughed out loud. Without replying Yang Chen, he started the engine and drove off.

Half an hour later, the two arrived the villa in the western suburbs where Tangtang stayed. The roads here were covered with dense greenery as usual.

When they were at the entrance to Tangtang’s home, she was waiting there. She wore Japanese-styled black and white dress, and white stockings. Her fresh and innocent face matched with her cute attire, and was remarkably like the maids of wealthy families in Japanese manga, she just lacked the maid headdress. Seeing Yuan Ye arrived, she waved at the both of them.

Tangtang whose hands were empty got on the car and high-fived with Yuan Ye, and greeted Yuan Ye with a smile.

Next, Tangtang angrily said to Yang Chen, “Uncle, you haven’t called me for many days, if it wasn’t because Yuan Ye-ge’s birthday was today, would you have forgotten about me completely?”

“Why would I call you for no reason?”

“Then do you make calls to your lovers?”

“I don’t… hold on! What lovers? What are you mouthing on about, brat!?” Yang Chen pretended to be upright as he said.

Tangtang made a bleh face, “I have seen through you. Uncle, you’re the Wu Qi, Liu An, Chen Shimei of present times!”

“What did they do?” Yang Chen didn’t have much knowledge of things that happened in ancient Huaxia.

While driving, Yuan Ye, gave him a queer smile and explained, “Wu Qi and Liu An both killed their wives for their own benefit, while Chen Shimei abandoned his wife and children……”

“What!?” Yang Chen was angered, he turned around and pinched Tangtang’s tender face, dragging it towards him, “How can you recklessly say such a thing? Why else would I call you a brat, look at how insensible you are!”

Tangtang pleaded till Yang Chen let go, but she still hid at the back laughing.

Yuan Ye looked at his rear view mirror, and saw how cute she was as she kept laughing. He helplessly shook his head and asked, “Tangtang, Auntie isn’t going?”

Tangtang nodded, “Yep, Mom told me to send her regards to Uncle Yuan and the others for her, she had gone to see the leader who came from Yanjing this morning.”

“That’s such a pity, Secretary Fang would also be present.” Yuan Ye sighed and said.

“So that is the case……” Tangtang pouted with disappointment and said, “I think Mom knew that Dad would be going, that’s why she decided not to go. I was just thinking why she had to meet that official, isn’t it the same whether she meets them or not? No matter how high ranking the official is, could they even be a match for Aunt Yuan’s family?”

“Who is Aunt Yuan?” Yang Chen curiously asked, “Yuan Ye’s mom?”

“Yeah. Let me tell you this, Uncle. In Yuan Ye-ge’s family, Aunt Yuan is the most powerful. Although Yuan Ye-ge’s father is the Yuan Group’s chairman, at home, his mom is has the final say.” Tangtang giggled as she spoke, “Aunt Yuan had always treated me well since I was a child, so when Yuan Ye-ge snatched fun things away from me, Aunt Yuan always helped me to beat him up, while Uncle Yuan never dared to say a thing.”

“What, is she very fierce?” The image of a female T-rex surfaced in Yang Chen’s mind.

Tangtang shook her head, “That’s not the case at all, Aunt Yuan is very gentle, she also treats people kindly. It’s because Aunt Yuan’s family is one of the most powerful families in Yanjing and also the whole of Huaxia. What I know is just what my Mom told me, so I can’t get any more specific. Yuan Ye-ge is also unwilling to tell me.”

Yuan Ye shyly smiled, “You’re exaggerating it.”

“How is this exaggerating at all? Therefore, with Aunt protecting me, Yuan Ye-ge had no opportunity to bully me at all when we were younger. It was also I who bullied him till he cried……”

Hearing Tangtang blab out all the awkward incidents Yuan Ye had as a child, Yang Chen couldn’t help laughing, but he sighed with sorrow inside. Although Tangtang had a rather special childhood due to her parents and definitely had bad times, there were quite a lot of adults who showed her care.

In comparison, his youth was filled with battling like a trapped beast, it wasn’t something they could even imagine.

Yuan Ye’s face turned flush due to the information Tangtang divulged. He coughed and said, “Tangtang, it’s enough that you said till things where I was eight. There’s no need to speak of matters where I was five. You were only three years old when I was five, how could you even remember?”

“I don’t really remember, but Aunt Yuan told me all this. Are you embarrassed, Yuan Ye-ge?” Tangtang reacted as if she had a small victory.

Yuan Ye forced a smile, then said to Yang Chen, “Did you hear that? I occasionally wonder if Tangtang is actually my mother’s child, she only ever sides with Tangtang and not me.”

Looking at these two who seemed like sweethearts, he said, “Are the two of you considered childhood sweethearts then? Aye… this is how the phrase is used, right?”

Tangtang blushed, while Yuan Ye had an awkward expression but smiled.

The car became silent, the atmosphere was rather ambiguous. Yang Chen looked at Tangtang and Yuan Ye playfully, and suddenly felt old. The two of them who were eighteen and twenty respectively were considered brimming in youth.

Although he was only about four years older than Yuan Ye, he felt like there was a huge generation gap between him and them. At the very least, he wouldn’t bashfully smile at the women he likes and be too shy to look straight at them. He might instead already have hugged them and given them a kiss.

Right as this time, the BMW drove into a narrow street, and a huge truck suddenly swerved towards them from the intersection ahead!

Yuan Ye quickly braked and angrily pressed on the horn, this sudden swerve was honestly too dangerous!

However, the situation didn’t seem to be so simple, because from the road behind, a large GMC truck had appeared as well. It stuck to the back of the BMW. Furthermore, from the two trucks, eight men carrying submachine guns jumped out. They all wore large sunglasses, black shirt and jeans.

This sudden development made pedestrians and other road users panic. They all fled in a crazed manner, and it was a chaotic scene.

Four men pointed their guns at the BMW, and one of them who wore metal spike gloves smashed the window!

*Shatter!*

The car’s glass window shattered, frightening Tangtang to the point where she screamed.

“Drive the car in!” The man’s voice was as apathetic as a machine.

The man who had a long chin pointed at the large truck. There was already a container being opened and a slope prepared. The car only needed to drive into the dark container.

Although Yuan Ye was appalled, he didn’t lose his mind. He glanced at the expressionless and taciturn Yang Chen, sighed, then moved the car into the container.

Once the car was driven into the container, the metal doors were immediately closed. The inside of the container was completely dark, one wouldn’t even be able to see one’s own hands inside.

The interior lights of the BMW were turned on. Yuan Ye turned to check on Tangtang, and saw that she had a pale face from fright, but he was relieved that she wasn’t hurt.

“Yuan Ye-ge, why did this happen? Uncle, aren’t you very strong? Please think of a way! Are they here to kidnap us!?” Tangtang asked with a sobbing tone.

Yuan Ye’s brows furrowed, but he didn’t speak a word. He too seemed to have endless unanswered questions in his head.

Yang Chen sighed and shrugged, then smile at them, “I bumped into something like this just from attending a birthday party, how could I know what they’re thinking? Since we’re already in this metal container, let’s wait till we get out and see what happens.”
