Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

Only when Ye Chen showed him the page showing the successful transfer did he truly believe it!

Although Mr. Guo still found it hard to believe, he reluctantly accepted the fact.

My house has really been sold!

Holy crap, what's with this dreamlike feeling?

This isn't how he imagined selling houses!

After confirming with the finance department on his phone, Xiao Cui smiled and said, "Haha, congratulations, Mr. Ye! Congratulations, Mr. Guo! I'll arrange the transfer right away. How about next Wednesday?"

Ye Chen nodded: "No problem!"

Mr. Guo nodded somewhat blankly, "I'm fine with anything!"

"Alright, it's settled then. Let's set it for 10 a.m. Mr. Guo, your wife must also be there!" Xiao Cui said with a smile to Mr. Guo.

Mr. Guo nodded: "Of course, no problem!"

Mr. Guo looked at Ye Chen somewhat apologetically: "Mr. Ye, Mr. Ye, I was rude just now, I'm really sorry, I sincerely apologize to you!"

As he spoke, President Guo bowed deeply to Ye Chen, but his large belly prevented him from bending down much.

Ye Chen waved his hand: "Forget it, it's all in the past. Don't always judge people with prejudice!"

"Yes, yes, I was a bit too hasty!" Mr. Guo smiled awkwardly. "How about this, I'll make the arrangements tonight as an apology!"

Ye Chen glanced at the time; it was almost 5 PM. "Tonight won't work. I have something to do later. Let's do it another day!"

If he hadn't promised Lin Rongrong, he would have wanted to go and see for himself how things were arranged.

"Oh, I see! Okay, Mr. Ye, you go ahead with your work. We'll reschedule for another day. Here's my business card!" Mr. Guo said, handing Ye Chen a business card.

When others offered their business cards, Ye Chen didn't put on airs and simply accepted them.

"I don't have any business cards on me!" Ye Chen shrugged.

"Hehe, it's okay. Having more friends means having more options. Let's add each other as friends so it'll be easier to contact each other later!" Mr. Guo took out his phone.

Ye Chen thought about it and realized that made sense. They didn't have any deep-seated hatred, so Ye Chen added the other person on WeChat. The two of them were connected because of the house.

No one is perfect. If we put ourselves in his shoes, it's somewhat understandable that Mr. Guo initially thought that way.

He was eager to sell the house, but the real estate agent hadn't contacted him for a while, which made him a little uneasy.

So at first glance, people assumed Ye Chen was a shill hired by the agency based on his clothes and appearance.

It's just a misunderstanding; it'll be fine once it's cleared up.

At least they were very polite in admitting their mistake!

Unless one is completely devoid of worldly desires, everyone will inevitably view society with some degree of prejudice!

As the group exited the Longjin residential complex, General Manager Guo watched Ye Chen get into the white Audi A6 and was slightly taken aback before shaking his head with a smile.

"Sigh, this Mr. Ye is truly an extraordinary person; he almost missed out on a fortune!"

The A6 isn't exactly a luxury car, but it's acceptable for certain occasions.

Some business owners have a unique passion for the A6.

Buying a multi-million dollar villa outright and driving a white Audi A6—isn't that just extraordinary?!

Every time Mr. Guo thought about how he had just driven people away, he felt like hitting himself on the head with a brick.

He almost chased away the God of Wealth who came to deliver money to his door.

It seems we can't judge a book by its cover anymore; who knows if the real big shots prefer to keep a low profile...

In the car, Ye Chen glanced at Guo's business card: Guo Jianbin, General Manager of Meiyuan International Hotel and Vice Chairman of Lucheng Chamber of Commerce.

The name is quite impressive.

hiss--

Meiyuan International Hotel? Why does that name sound so familiar?

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes, unable to recall for a moment.

Then he opened his chat with Lin Rongrong, wanting to find a way to navigate to the party location.

It turned out that the place where they were having their party tonight was none other than the Meiyuan International Hotel.

What a coincidence!

Ye Chen smiled and shook his head, wondering if there would be a discount at the party!

However, it seems someone is treating tonight, so whether or not there's a discount isn't something he's considering.

Ye Chen didn't think much of it and drove towards the city center using the navigation.

It's just that it's close to lunchtime and it's Saturday, so there's a bit of traffic on the road.

I guess everyone wants to go to the city center to join in the fun.

After five days of being a corporate slave, I finally got a rare day off on Saturday to go out and explore the beauty of the big city.

Ye Chen was stuck in traffic for more than an hour, and it was almost 6:1 p.m. when he finally arrived at the Meiyuan International Hotel.

Ye Chen parked his car in the parking lot and walked to the hotel lobby.

But which floor? Ye Chen was a little dumbfounded looking at the 99+ group chat history. How long would it take to scroll through all of this?

He was just about to call Lin Rongrong to ask when an acquaintance walked in through the door.

"Hey, Ye Chen?! Holy crap, it really is you! I almost didn't recognize you!"

Ye Chen smiled as he looked at the newcomer: "Xiao Ming, I didn't expect you to come too!"

The person who came was named Su Mingliang, one of Ye Chen's college roommates. He was 175 cm tall and weighed 175 kg, and was nicknamed "Ball"!

His family runs a business in Shanghai, and it's said to be quite successful; he's considered a second-generation rich kid.

"Hehe, I flew here from Shanghai early this morning. It's rare to get together like this, so I had to come no matter what!" Su Mingliang stepped forward and put his arm around Ye Chen's shoulder, laughing.

"Squad Leader Lin said someone's treating us tonight. Could it be you, you spendthrift wretch?" Ye Chen glanced sideways at Su Mingliang.

"Tch, what are you thinking? Do you think I'm that generous?" Su Mingliang curled his lip. "It's that bastard Zhang Zihao!"

"By the way, what happened to you? You should at least dress presentably for a party. Didn't you say you were going to get promoted? How's that going?" Su Mingliang asked casually, without any attempt to hide anything.

Busy with other things, Ye Chen hadn't had time to go wholesale clothes yet, so he was just wearing a simple white T-shirt and short casual pants, and his shoes were just some cheap white sneakers from a domestic brand that cost a few dozen yuan.

"Sigh, don't even mention it, it's a long story!" Ye Chen shook his head, not knowing where to begin.

A few months ago, he did share his joy about his upcoming promotion with his roommates in their group chat.

However, after leaving the company, he almost never appeared in the group anymore.

"It's a long story, so let's keep it short. Aren't you good at Chinese?" Su Mingliang rolled his eyes.

Ye Chen was helpless. That was just the guy's personality. If he didn't explain things clearly, the guy would pester him all night.

Ye Chen then briefly recounted the events of the past year.

He also mentioned his breakup with Chen Shuyuan, to avoid any misunderstandings or blunders by Su Mingliang later.

When Su Mingliang heard that Ye Chen had given up the job opportunity to Chen Shuyuan, Chen Shuyuan turned around and kicked Ye Chen away, and angrily cursed him.

"Bitch! I never realized she was this kind of woman!"

"I was wondering why Zhang Zihao was thinking of treating everyone. He's got a problem with showing off, isn't he? That bastard!"

"Let's go. We might as well skip this meal; who knows what he'll do to put on an act later!"
