BXBX NOVEL Chapter 108 - 108: Opening Ceremony (Part 1)
Ye Chen’s eyes looked out of the window, and a confident smile appeared on his face.
“There’s no need to change it. You’ve worked hard during this period of time. Rest early and leave the rest to me! Not only do I want the Heavenly Justice Group to open as planned, I want it to do so with a bang!”
After hanging up, Ye Chen immediately returned Zhu Rende and Ye Lingtian’s calls.
Basically, they were all worried about tomorrow.
Ye Lingtian even asked Ye Chen if he needed to show up in person tomorrow, but Ye Chen rejected him.
Ye Lingtian’s identity was too special. In the entire Jiangnan Province, no one dared to provoke him. It was best that he remained in the dark for now.
He did not require Ye Lingtian’s assistance to deal with such a small matter.
During this time, he received another call. To his surprise, it was an unfamiliar voice.
The person on the other end of the phone only asked, “Is Mr. Ye’s Heavenly Justice Group having its opening ceremony tomorrow?”
Ye Chen replied with a “yes” and then hung up.
Ye Chen did not think too much about it and returned to the Grand City apartment complex. These two girls had almost blown up his phone with missed calls, but some things were better explained in person.
When the door opened, he saw Xia Ruoxue sitting there, staring at him with interest.
“You’re back?”
“Yes.”
“Is the Heavenly Justice Group really yours?”
Xia Ruoxue stood up and approached Ye Chen.
Ye Chen nodded and admitted.
Xia Ruoxue bit her red lips and hesitated for a long time before saying, “I’m sorry. I apologize for my mother’s actions. I didn’t expect her to use the Xia family’s influence to threaten the Heavenly Justice Group. I called her several times, but she refused to let the matter go. I’m really sorry.”
Xia Ruoxue blamed herself. When she found out that the Xia family had interfered, she started arguing with her over the phone.
Her mother only had one request. As long as Xia Ruoxue was willing to return to the Xia family, she could immediately withdraw everything.
At that moment, she really wanted to say yes. However, when she thought about the fact that she would never be able to leave once she returned, she became afraid and backed down.
Ye Chen looked at Xia Ruoxue’s apologetic expression and joked, “You didn’t do this, so why are you feeling guilty? If you really feel guilty, why don’t you give me a kiss to comfort me?”
Before he could finish, Xia Ruoxue leaned over. Her fragrance assailed his nostrils and her moist lips kissed Ye Chen’s cheek.
“Are you satisfied now?” Her voice was sexy and sultry.
Ye Chen was completely taken aback. He had just been joking!
He touched his cheek and looked at Xia Ruoxue, who was blushing and had her head lowered.
“Would you believe me if I said that I didn’t take your mother seriously at all?”
Xia Ruoxue shook her head. Why was Ye Chen so stubborn? At this point, was there still a need to pretend?
“Ye Chen, why don’t you push back the opening ceremony? It doesn’t have to be tomorrow. We can still do it after this incident blows over.”
Ye Chen shrugged and returned to his room.
Xia Ruoxue was the only one left in the living room. She looked at the tightly-shut door and sighed.
“Ye Chen, I really don’t understand where your confidence comes from. Fighting against the Xia family will only lead to death.”
The next morning at 8am, a red carpet was laid out at the entrance of the Heavenly Justice Group’s building, and the decorations around the entrance were quite festive.
Shen Haihua stood at the door with a strange expression on his face.
There were many people standing outside, but these people had no intention of coming in to support them. They were clearly here to watch the show!
He looked at the time and realized that Ye Chen had not arrived yet. Was he trying to cause trouble?
This company was his! If the legal owner did not come, then this matter would become even more embarrassing.
If Ye Chen had not saved him and agreed to his three conditions, he would not have started the Heavenly Justice Group even if he was beaten to death!
Shen Haihua was still very responsible. He arranged for a few beautiful receptionists to hand out flyers along the street to try to pull people in.
However, after ten minutes, no one moved even one step closer to the entrance.
It was as if the Heavenly Justice Group had been despised by the world.
Not long after, he finally sent out a text.
Then a middle-aged man in a suit took a flyer and walked toward Shen Haihua.
Excitement appeared on Shen Haihua’s face as he quickly smiled and extended his hand.
“Youcheng! Haha, I knew you would come through for me.”
The middle-aged man’s name was Zhao Youcheng, and he was the founder of Xintian Group. He had been friends with Shen Haihua for more than ten years. During the financial crisis in 2008, the two of them helped each other to survive, so they had become very close friends. Therefore, Shen Haihua knew that the other party was undoubtedly here to support him, or so he believed.
“Pa!”
Just as Shen Haihua’s hand was about to shake Zhao Youcheng’s hand, something happened. Zhao Youcheng slapped Shen Haihua’s hand away with the flyer, looking very disgusted.
Shen Haihua was stunned.

Zhao Youcheng sighed. “Haihua, we’ve been brothers for so many years. I advise you to stop this farce right now. Your company’s stock has already suffered enough. Why are you still helping that useless Ye family? The Heavenly Justice Group is something you have no right to meddle in.”
Just as Shen Haihua was about to speak, he noticed Ye Chen, who was dressed in a suit, walking slowly toward him. He suppressed the anger in his heart and walked toward Ye Chen.
“Mr. Ye, you’re finally here.”
Ye Chen patted Shen Haihua on the shoulder.
When Zhao Youcheng heard how Shen Haihua addressed Ye Chen, he frowned.
“Shen Haihua, are you sick or stupid? Why are you being so respectful to a piece of trash?”
Shen Haihua could no longer suppress his anger. He turned around and pointed at Zhao Youcheng.
“Zhao Youcheng! If you had come to support me today, I would have thanked you from the depths of my heart. But you’re here to make sarcastic remarks and kick us while we’re down. Get lost! Get as far away from me as possible!”
“Shen Haihua, I came to persuade you out of kindness, yet you dare speak to me like this? The Xia family of Jiangnan Province and the four major families of River City have already boycotted the Heavenly Justice Group. Who would dare to support you? Your stubbornness will ruin you! I’ll give you one last piece of advice. Draw a dear line between yourself and the Heavenly Justice Group and this piece of trash from the Ye family who should have died. Otherwise, everything you’ve worked for your entire life will vanish before your eyes!”
Zhao Youcheng’s face was flushed red. He really could not understand what kind of bewitching drug this piece of trash from the Ye family had fed Shen Haihua!
“Shen Haihua, if you continue to be stubborn, we’ll cancel all three projects we’ve worked on this year!”
This was undoubtedly adding insult to injury.
The Heavenly Justice Group was already doomed. If Shen Haihua continued to get involved, then the North Name Corporation would also perish with it.
Shen Haihua immediately called for the security guards and roared at Zhao Youcheng, “Zhao Youcheng, get the f*ck out of here! I’ve finally seen your true colors! I don’t care about the projects! Just get lost!”
When Zhao Youcheng saw the security guards coming over, he snorted coldly and left..
