Ye Family meeting room.

Today, the members of the Ye Family had been through a rollercoaster of emotions, each one of them somewhat mentally exhausted, now sitting in silence on their chairs.

Ye Jianchang sat in the corner, praying that Ye Yuwan would also be expelled, while Ye Tianming knew that Ye Yuwan would definitely not be expelled!

After a while, Ye Qiongbo's cell phone rang. Glancing at the caller ID, Ye Qiongbo answered the call, "Hello? Who is this?"

"Elder Ye, Family Head, this is Wang Guicheng, the Investment Department Manager of Yichen Company. I had just been to your place, and General Ye asked me to tell you that she needs to familiarize herself with the company and won't be returning for now. Also, the Ye Family's ten-million investment package has now become a thirty-million gift pack, which has been delivered to General Ye," said Wang Guicheng's voice from the receiver.

"Good, thank you, Manager Wang," Ye Qiongbo spoke with a delighted expression.

The faces of the Ye Family members brightened, staring intently at Ye Qiongbo, eager to hear the good news from his mouth!

After ending the call, Ye Qiongbo turned to look at the people of the Ye Family, chuckling softly, "Yuwan has become the president of Yichen, and furthermore, the gift pack for our Ye Family has increased from ten million to thirty million!"

"What?"

"Really?!"

"Yichen Company really values Ye Yuwan!"

"That's right! Lucky for us it's Ye Yuwan! Otherwise, we wouldn't have received a single cent from the investment!"

"Hehe, some people still think they can replace Ye Yuwan. How can he even say that with a straight face!"

"Exactly, no wonder he was expelled from the family, he's so lacking in self-awareness!"

The Ye Family members exclaimed in astonishment and took the chance to scorn Ye Tianming.

Ye Tianming's face darkened.

Ye Yuwan, Jiang Chen, just you wait!

...

Two days later.

Jiang Chen was familiarizing himself with company documents in his office when his cell phone rang.

After seeing the caller ID, Jiang Chen answered the call with a light chuckle: "Hello, Mom."

"Xiao Chen! Do you want to come home for a visit? You've been in Dingjing for so long, and you haven't come back yet!" Shen Xiaoqin's voice came through the receiver.

Jiang Chen paused for a moment, remembering he had never visited his mother's hometown since his childhood, and then nodded in agreement: "Sure."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chen gave it some thought. He felt that he shouldn't seem too modest on his first visit to his mother's hometown. Especially after the incident involving Ye Yuwan and Ye Jingyi being kidnapped in Jinhai, he had already been considering buying a car.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he decided to go buy the car!

Making up his mind, Jiang Chen walked out of his office.

Heading to the neighboring Chairman's office, Jiang Chen knocked on the door, feeling that since he was married now, it was also time for his mother to meet Gong Lin as a way of compensating Gong Lin!

The door to the office opened, and Gong Lin looked at Jiang Chen with a puzzled expression: "What's wrong?"

"I... My mother asked me to visit our hometown to meet the relatives. Will you go with me?" Jiang Chen asked somewhat sheepishly.

Gong Lin was momentarily stunned, looking steadily at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen met Gong Lin's gaze, his eyes reflecting a trace of apology.

Gong Lin instantly understood that Jiang Chen was trying to make amends.

However, Gong Lin's heart was filled with warmth, and she looked at Jiang Chen tenderly, giving a gentle nod.

"Then let's go, I'll buy a car, the first trip back to my hometown can't be too shabby, and it will also give my mom a proud moment!" Jiang Chen said with a light laugh.

Gong Lin rolled her eyes at Jiang Chen, "You should have bought a car a long time ago!"

The two went downstairs, and Gong Lin was ready to drive when Jiang Chen said, "Let's take a taxi."

Gong Lin paused briefly, then without insistence, followed Jiang Chen to hail a taxi.

After giving Gong Lin a deep look, Jiang Chen's eyes expressed a touched sentiment.

For a young lady like Gong Lin, it had probably been a long time since she took a taxi. Yet, when he suggested it, Gong Lin agreed without any objection, which deeply moved Jiang Chen.

With a slight smile, a hint of mirth appeared on Jiang Chen's face, and he had a deep motive for having Gong Lin take a taxi this time!

The pair took a taxi to a high-end foreign import car dealership in Dingjing.

"Welcome!"

Upon entering, the receptionists at the door bowed enthusiastically to the two of them.

But when they looked up and saw Jiang Chen and Gong Lin clearly, surprise and disdain flashed across the receptionists' faces.

Jiang Chen was dressed in plain clothes and looked quite handsome, while Gong Lin was decked out in designer brands, making the receptionists instantly think they were dealing with a man kept by a wealthy woman, led in to buy a car.

After their disdain, the receptionists' eyes revealed envy and jealousy. Bagging such a beautiful woman through being a kept man was lucky enough, and here he was, about to purchase a luxury car as well—it was enough to make anyone green with envy!

One of the receptionists approached Jiang Chen and Gong Lin and said, without even glancing at Jiang Chen but instead smiling at Gong Lin, "Sir, Miss, may I ask what type of car you are looking to buy? We have Lamborghinis, Ferraris…"

"I don't really like any of those that you mentioned," Jiang Chen shook his head slightly.

The receptionist glanced at Jiang Chen and ignored him.

"Look, the kept man is being picky now!"

"Exactly, his sugar mama hasn't said anything yet, and he's already declining."

"Hehe, who would complain when he's such a looker? Maybe he's already captured the heart of that pretty little rich woman!"

"It's possible. Those who live off women these days really know how to control hearts!"

The other receptionists started to whisper among themselves.

Gong Lin looked at Jiang Chen, "Jiang Chen, what style do you like?"

Jiang Chen answered softly, "I don't want those sports cars that young masters drive; I want something more majestic and authoritative."

My goodness! The kept man wants to be majestic and authoritative? It's truly a case of desiring what one lacks!

The receptionist suppressed a laugh, looked at Jiang Chen dismissively, let her eyes twirl mockingly, and said, "We do have something majestic and authoritative indeed. In fact, I reckon it's the only one in all of Dingjing, the Knight XV, a high-flash bulletproof SUV, with even the windows being bulletproof.

This car was ordered by a customer, but after it arrived, he felt it was too big and didn't want it. If you think it's fine, you could drive it away right now."

"Oh? Great! Let's have a look!" Jiang Chen's eyes lit up.

Have a look? Hehe, I've been waiting for you to say that! I can't wait to see you make a fool of yourself!

The receptionist's lips curled up in a cold smirk before raising her hands to gesture a one and a five: "However, I should tell you, this car is priced at fifteen million."

"Fifteen million?" Gong Lin blinked, and her expression became somewhat awkward.

Although she was the heiress of the Gong Family, she only had her salary and some pocket money given by the family; she wasn't able to freely use the Gong Family's assets. Moreover, she had only returned to the Gong Family not long ago and joined the Sihai Group. She hadn't been working there for long before she followed Jiang Chen to the Yichen Company, and her savings amounted to just over ten million.

Therefore, upon hearing the price of the car, it was inevitable for Gong Lin's face to show some changes.
