Chapter 48 Straight to the Heart of the Army
Ye Chen and Jiang Ruoxi soon arrived at the headquarters of Wansheng Group, without any other people with them.
At the entrance, because they didn't have an appointment, they were stopped by the receptionist and security guards in the lobby, and they lingered for a long time without letting Ye Chen in.
Ye Chen wasn't angry. He smiled and chatted with the receptionist, "Miss, could you make a call for me? Tell her that Ms. Jiang, the president of the Jiang Group, has arrived downstairs, and ask Mr. Li to run over to pick her up..."
The receptionist looked disdainful after hearing this. Many people come to see Li Chengwen every day, and she had never seen anyone so arrogant, having the group president run to pick him up. What a grand gesture that must be!
"Excuse me, please take out your appointment card. No one is allowed in without an appointment. It's company policy," the receptionist said with a forced smile.
"I'm sorry, we didn't make an appointment. We're discussing the collaboration with Mr. Li on short notice. Could you please make a call for me, Mr. Li will definitely come down right away? You'll see if you try."
"Who are you? No appointment, no entry. That's company policy, you know that? What, are you trying to force your way in?"
The receptionist thought Ye Chen and Jiang Ruoxi didn't seem like the big boss at all; they were probably just making fun of her. She had to stick to her principles.
Ye Chen pulled Jiang Ruoxi, preparing to leave. He then turned back to the front desk, revealing a device tucked into his sleeve: "Miss, can I use this to make a phone call?"
The receptionist's expression changed when she saw the machete hidden in Ye Chen's sleeve; only then did she realize that Ye Chen was not someone to be trifled with.
With trembling hands, she picked up the phone on the table and clumsily dialed Li Chengwen's secretary's number: "Secretary Huang, there's a man named Ye Chen and another named Jiang Ruoxi here. They didn't make an appointment and insisted that President Li come all the way here. I couldn't stop them, and they insisted that I report to President Li. They even brought a knife..."
The woman carrying the knife spoke very softly, afraid that Ye Chen would hear her. This receptionist, who was used to swaggering around, had finally met her match today.
"Okay, I got it. You stay there and keep watch, and call more security guards over..."
Secretary Huang hurriedly hung up the phone and immediately reported. As Li Chengwen's trusted secretary, she naturally knew Ye Chen and Jiang Ruoxi.
"Mr. Li, Ye Chen and Jiang Ruoxi are here. They're at the front desk downstairs, insisting on seeing you."
"Oh, they're here pretty fast. Let's go take a look."
Li Chengwen still wore that forced smile, as if everything was under his control.
He straightened his suit and led Secretary Huang downstairs.
"Hello, Mr. Li!" The security guards and other employees greeted Li Chengwen and bowed as he arrived. The gestures were very standardized and uniform, clearly indicating that they had been instructed to do so.
Li Chengwen was indeed capable. Under his management, Wansheng Group was the second largest in Jiangcheng after Jiang's Group, but it was suppressed by Jiang's Group in many aspects, which was one of the reasons why Li Chengwen was dissatisfied.
"Oh my, isn't this President Jiang, the most beautiful CEO in Jiangcheng? I'm so sorry, my subordinates didn't know their place and offended her. They should apologize to President Jiang right now!"
Li Chengwen pretended to be angry and scolded the front desk staff and security guards.
"President Jiang, it is an honor to have you grace our company with your presence. Please move to the reception area for a more detailed discussion, shall we?"
Li Chengwen gestured for her to follow, and Jiang Ruoxi walked forward without thinking. Ye Chen was about to follow when Li Chengwen's secretary stopped him.
"Mr. Ye, I'm sorry, you can't come in. Please wait here."
Secretary Huang speaks coldly, much like Jiang Ruoxi's secretary, but she is quite good-looking and definitely a beauty; otherwise, why would Li Chengwen have chosen her as his secretary?
"Hey beautiful, why can't I come in?"
"No reason, your level is not high enough. Please stay. Please don't make me repeat myself, thank you!"
This woman is even colder. Are all good-looking women like this?
Master, Jiang Ruoxi, Secretary Wang, and this Secretary Huang are all like this. There's nothing we can do; beautiful women have the advantage.
"Mr. Li, you don't even trust me to bring one bodyguard? Is Ye Chen really that terrifying?"
Jiang Ruoxi's casual remark made Li Chengwen a little embarrassed. It was impossible for him not to be afraid of Ye Chen. He had heard about Ma Wu's situation and had been defeated by him twice. How could he not be worried?
"President Jiang, what are you saying? I just don't want Brother Ye to get into trouble. Besides, a mere deputy director of the security department isn't qualified to attend a meeting of our level, is he? What do you say, President Jiang?"
Li Chengwen was a cunning old fox; he left Jiang Ruoxi with no chance to refute him, so she had no choice but to let him arrange things.
"Ye Chen, you can stay here!"
"No, Mr. Jiang, this concerns my innocence. I must participate. Besides, I have crucial evidence."
Ye Chen deliberately disobeyed Jiang Ruoxi's arrangements and emphasized the word "evidence".
"Mr. Li, what do you think? I believe Ye Chen should participate, and he absolutely must participate..."
Jiang Ruoxi's words left Li Chengwen no room for negotiation, meaning Ye Chen had to participate.
Seeing this situation, Li Chengwen had no choice but to smile awkwardly and agree.
"Alright, in that case, we'll leave everything to President Jiang's arrangements."
Ye Chen followed behind Jiang Ruoxi, his eyes fixed on Li Chengwen, his mind already racing with the thought of punching him a hundred times over.
Upon arriving at the reception room, Jiang Ruoxi stated her purpose very directly: "President Li, I think we don't need to elaborate on why we're here, right? Let's get straight to the point: why did you frame Ye Chen?"
Upon hearing Jiang Ruoxi's words, Li Chengwen's smiling face immediately turned into an angry one.
"President Jiang, isn't that a bit inappropriate? How could I, the boss of such a large group company, do something like that? That was provided by a witness at the scene! It wasn't me who said it, so it's not solid evidence!"
"I see, Mr. Li. That just so happens that I have evidence to prove that we are not together."
Ye Chen watched as Jiang Ruoxi and Li Chengwen exchanged a few rounds of words before he finally spoke up.
"Really? If Mr. Li were truly upright and honest, I would believe him. But after a few meetings, I've found that Mr. Li isn't so straightforward after all!"
"Young man, you can eat as much as you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Jiangcheng is not a place where just anyone can act recklessly."
Li Chengwen is still the same old fox, neither admitting nor explaining, waiting to see what the other party has to offer first.
"Mr. Ye, please watch your tone. Don't assume that just because our CEO Li is easy to talk to, you can be so careless with your words..."
"Who the hell are you? You should be glad I don't hit women. Get out of here..."
Ye Chen lost his temper and vented his anger on Secretary Huang, scaring her so much that she could hardly breathe and obediently shut her mouth and stood aside.
"President Jiang, Brother Ye, just present whatever evidence you have. We're not children anymore. If we can't make a judgment, there's always a judge, right?"
Li Chengwen forced Ye Chen to produce evidence. Before taking action, he sent people to observe Ye Chen's living situation, assuming that Ye Chen was still staying in the villa as usual.
"Mr. Li, please take a look. This is footage of the assault. This is a video I took at the Jiang family's old residence. Do you think this matter still has anything to do with me?"
Ye Chen showed the video evidence to Li Chengwen.
"This...this..." Li Chengwen suddenly stopped, looking a little embarrassed.
