"Mom, Sister, you're back?"
Ye Jingyi looked at Zhou Ru and Ye Yanni as they walked into the house with surprise and delight.
"Ah, wife, you're back? Is everything okay?" Ye Jianxiong said joyfully.
Wang Dongyang hugged Ye Yanni tightly, asking with concern, "Yan Ni, how was it? They didn't bully you in there, did they?"
Li Jiangming was confused, staring blankly at the spirited Zhou Ru and Ye Yanni.
What's going on? Jade hadn't called me with news that the secret recipe was in hand yet! How were they released so suddenly? Isn't this a bit too suspicious?
"Haha!" Zhou Ru no longer had the dejection of being taken away, but instead, she started proudly, "You have no idea, we were treated so well at the police station, not only were we moved to a private room, we could also…"
Ye Yanni chimed in triumphantly, "Exactly, the officers were all very polite to us, how could they possibly bully us? It didn't feel like being in custody, more like staying at a hotel!"
Zhou Ru suddenly remembered something and took a check out of her bag, "Look, we even got ten million in compensation!"
Ye Jingxiong, surprised and happy, took the check and looked at it, "Compensation, ten million? Is there such a good thing?!"
Everyone was overjoyed.
Not only had they not suffered, but they had also made a fortune; it would be strange if they weren't happy.
Ye Jingyi, however, was somewhat puzzled, "Mom, what exactly happened here?"
Everyone was taken aback, right, what was going on?
"Right, didn't Li Jiang just say he had found someone?" Ye Jianxiong thought of Li Jiangming and turned his head to look at him, "Li Jiang, it was you, wasn't it?"
Li Jiangming quickly shifted his eyes, lifting his head to say, "Yes, it was me. I arranged for someone to look after the aunts and my sister at the police station, and then got the Lin Family to withdraw the lawsuit."
"Wow! Thank you so much!"
"Yes, thanks to you! Completely different from that loser Jiang Chen, who only knows how to brag. He said he was handling the situation, and now there's no sign of him anywhere!"
"Indeed, that freeloader Jiang Chen, eager when it comes to living off a woman, but once trouble arises, he disappears without a trace!"
"Absolutely, Li Jiang is the reliable one!"
The Ye Family members began praising Li Jiangming one after another.
Although Li Jiangming had many doubts, he naturally couldn't turn down such a favorable turn of events and accepted the compliments with a smile on his face.
Li Yaoyao quickly took the opportunity to say, "Jing Yi Sister, you see? My brother is so impressive! He even solved the Lin Family issue. You should hurry up and divorce that loser Jiang Chen and follow my brother!"
"Yeah, Jing Yi, you should hurry up and divorce Jiang Chen!"
"Exactly, what's the point of sticking with that loser?"
Ye Jianxiong and others began to persuade her earnestly.
Ye Jingyi fell silent, feeling that Jiang Chen had indeed handled things unreliably, but remembering the kindness Jiang Chen had shown her in the past, she just shook her head gently without saying a word.
"All right, all right, no rush, I am willing to wait for Jing Yi to change her mind!" Li Jiang declared magnanimously, waving his hand.
Ye Yanni glared at Ye Jingyi, reproaching her, "Jing Yi, are you blind? Why do you insist on sticking with Jiang Chen?"
"Sister, stop blaming Jing Yi, she's also in a tough spot," Li Jiang spoke softly, then turned his tender gaze toward Ye Jingyi.
Ye Jingyi smiled gratefully at Li Jiangming, her emotions a tangle of complexity.
"Well, the issue is resolved, and we even got ten million in compensation, all thanks to Li Jiang! Let's go out and treat Li Jiang to dinner," Zhou Ru suddenly said with a grand gesture.
Li Jiangming hypocritically refused with a pretense of reluctance, "No need, I was only doing what I should. For Jing Yi, I would do anything."
"It's not up for discussion, we must go!"
"Yes, yes, yes, we must treat Li Jiang to dinner!"
"Yes, Jiang Ming must go! Let us properly thank you!"
The Ye Family members were all persuading.
Li Jiangming pretended to be helpless and agreed, "Alright, I'll go then, but please don't spend too much."
Zhou Ru held her head high, "What are you talking about? I have ten million in compensation now, how could I shortchange you? We must have a good meal."
"Yes, let's have a good meal, let's go to The Four Seas Hotel."
"Good, The Four Seas it is!"
The family agreed on the plan, but Ye Jingyi thought of Jiang Chen and spoke softly, "I'll call Jiang Chen and invite him to join us."
"Why call him?" Zhou Ru glowered, "Why invite that waste? It's upsetting just to look at him, don't call!"
Ye Yanni scolded loudly, "Are you stupid? Why would you invite that waste? He does nothing, only knows how to freeload, why should he come?"
Ye Jianxiong even snatched Ye Jingyi's phone away, scolding, "Jingyi, have you gone mad? Jiang Ming is here, and you want to call that waste Jiang Chen, do you even have a brain?"
Ye Jingyi looked at Li Jiangming's aggrieved face and then at her family, helplessly agreeing not to call Jiang Chen.
So, the family drove to The Four Seas Hotel.
At that moment, in the most luxurious No. 1 private room of The Four Seas Hotel, a feast was being laid out.
The host was Lin Youpeng, and the guest of honor was Jiang Chen, with Cheng Zhiqiang and Divine Doctor Fang accompanying. When Lin Youpeng found out that Jiang Chen was actually the president of The Four Seas, he was pleasantly surprised and immediately called Gong Lin to join them as well.
Around the dining table, Lin Youpeng lifted his glass, smiling, "Come, come, Divine Doctor Jiang, I owe you a lot, here's a toast to you!"
"Yes, we too are beneficiaries of Mr. Jiang's kindness."
"Indeed, such a great virtue from the master, I am in awe."
Cheng Zhiqiang and Divine Doctor Fang also raised their glasses for a joint toast.
Jiang Chen smiled slightly, lifting his glass to clink with everyone's.
Gong Lin watched Jiang Chen being so honored and couldn't help but smile, genuinely happy for Jiang Chen.
While they were toasting and making merry here, Zhou Ru and the others had already arrived at the hotel entrance.
Approaching the reception, Zhou Ru said arrogantly, "Receptionist, give us your biggest and most luxurious private room, I want to treat my benefactor."
The receptionist responded with a smile, "Sorry, ma'am, our most luxurious No. 1 private room is already taken!"
"What about a smaller one then?"
"Sorry, all our private rooms are fully booked, you might consider dining in the main hall!"
"What main hall!" Zhou Ru glared, "Do you think we can't afford a private room?"
Ye Yanni, having just received special treatment at the police station, was feeling rather high and mighty, and slapped the reception desk, demanding, "Who is that in the No. 1 private room?"
"It's the Lin Family Head, Mr. Lin Youpeng who reserved the room," the receptionist answered with a light laugh.
The Ye Family members were taken aback.
"Haha," Zhou Ru burst out laughing, "It's him! Then that settles it! He's been very polite to me, even sent someone to deliver the compensation to me; he won't have any problem giving up the room for us, let's go up."
"Right, they should make way for us. After all, they had us taken to the police station. They should compensate us, not just give up their room but also pay for our meal!" Ye Yanni said with an arrogant face.
The receptionist was dumbfounded, looking at Zhou Ru and the others as if they were fools.
Asking the Lin Family Head to give up the room? Had these people gone mad?
Ignoring the receptionist, the group led by Zhou Ru went upstairs, heading straight for the No. 1 private room.
