After Ye Chen made that phone call, Jiang Ruoxi didn't say anything, but she was actually half-believing and half-doubting.

It wasn't that she didn't trust Ye Chen; it was just that the whole thing was too unbelievable.

Tongda Building Materials Group is the leading enterprise in the provincial capital's building materials industry, with business covering the entire province. Its annual turnover is more than the total turnover of all industries of Wansheng Group.

For companies of this caliber, let alone cooperation, you'd have to queue up for half a month in advance just to invite one of their department managers to dinner.

Then Ye Chen made a phone call and said that the boss was his senior uncle? The kind of senior uncle who used to steal his candy when he was a kid?

Jiang Ruoxi felt that her values ​​were not up to par.

However, the next morning, her doubts were completely shattered by reality.

Three black Mercedes-Benz vans parked in a row at the entrance of Jiang's Group. The doors opened at the same time, and a middle-aged, overweight man in his thirties got out of the first car. He was wearing a well-tailored dark blue Tang suit, had a round face and big ears, and was all smiles. He looked like the kind of shrewd and worldly person who was good at dealing with people in the business world.

His belly was so big that the buttons of his Tang suit were stretched taut, as if they would burst open at any moment, and his whole body trembled when he walked.

Upon seeing this, the security guard standing guard at the entrance quickly went forward to inquire.

The fat man chuckled and handed over a business card. The security guard took it and almost dropped it on the ground.

The business card prominently displays the name: Zhou Wantong, Chairman of Tongda Building Materials Group.

"I'm looking for your Minister Ye, that kid named Ye Chen. I'm his senior apprentice."

When the news reached upstairs, Jiang Ruoxi personally led a group of senior executives downstairs to greet them, but Zhou Wantong waved his hand and said there was no need to be polite, and directly asked where Ye Chen was.

When Ye Chen walked out of the security department, he still had half a meat bun in his mouth.

As soon as Zhou Wantong saw him, his two small eyes lit up. He rushed over in three steps, hugged Ye Chen tightly, and patted his back vigorously.

"Hey kid! You've been down the mountain for so long and haven't even come to visit your martial uncle! When my senior sister called me, I thought she was senile and talking nonsense, but I didn't expect you to actually be in Jiangcheng!"

Ye Chen coughed repeatedly from the slap, finally managing to break free from the fat man's bear hug. He looked him up and down, then clicked his tongue and said, "Fatty, how come you've gotten even fatter than when you were a kid? I remember you were only 180 pounds when you came down the mountain, now you must be 250, right?"

"Bullshit! What do you mean 250? It's clearly 248." Zhou Wantong corrected him angrily, then grinned.

"You haven't changed much, still as annoying as ever. Your master said you married a CEO, and at first I didn't believe it. Someone like you could find a wife?"

Jiang Ruoxi, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but twitch her lips when she heard this.

Ye Chen put his arm around Jiang Ruoxi's shoulder and said smugly, "Look, this is my wife, Jiang Ruoxi, the president of the Jiang Group. What do you think? I have good taste, right?"

Zhou Wantong then noticed Jiang Ruoxi, looked her up and down, and exclaimed in amazement, "Not bad, not bad, a good girl. It's a pity she's paired with this guy."

Jiang Ruoxi: "..."

She finally understood that Ye Chen's character wasn't something he developed later in life, but rather a trait inherited from his sect.

The group went upstairs and sat down in the conference room.

"Niece Ruoxi, your senior sister has told me everything about you." Zhou Wantong patted his round belly with a big smile.

"Those bastards from the Qiao family are so despicable. Of all people to bully, they have to come and bully the wives of our Medicine King Valley disciples. Don't worry, from today onwards, I will take over all the building materials supply for the Jiang Group, at 70% of the market price."

Jiang Ruoxi's eyes widened; she almost thought she had misheard.

"Mr. Zhou, this...this isn't quite right, is it? You're in business, after all; you'll lose money with these terms."

"What loss? I'm doing business with my nephew, why would I haggle over a pittance?" Zhou Wantong waved his hand, his whole body trembling three times.

"Besides, I liked you the moment I saw you. It's such a waste to pair you with that kid Ye Chen. Just for the sake of you being such a good wife for my sect, I'll give you a 40% discount."

Ye Chen coughed beside him and said, "Fatty, that's enough."

Zhou Wantong laughed heartily and patted Ye Chen on the shoulder: "Alright, alright, I'll give you some face. By the way, Song Tiezhu should be arriving soon too. I saw his convoy at the highway exit when I came in."

No sooner had he finished speaking than there was a knock on the conference room door.

A burly, dark-skinned man walked in, dressed in a crisp military green work uniform. He walked with a powerful stride, exuding the aura of a tough, masculine man.

The visitor was Song Tiezhu, the owner of Tiedun Logistics.

"Second Brother!" Ye Chen stood up and went to greet him.

Song Tiezhu was not good with words, but he patted Ye Chen's shoulder hard, so hard that the floor under Ye Chen's feet shook.

Then he turned to Jiang Ruoxi, took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to her, saying as few words as if he were sending a telegram: "Iron Shield Logistics, Song Tiezhu, sister-in-law, contact me if you need anything."

He said just those ten words, then sat down in the chair, his back ramrod straight, like a soldier waiting for inspection.

Jiang Ruoxi accepted the business card with both hands, speechless with shock.

Zhou Wantong's appearance was already surprising enough, but she didn't expect the boss of Tiedun Logistics to come in person as well.

More importantly, Song Tiezhu himself is a veteran who made meritorious contributions in the army. After retiring, he started his own business, starting with a truck, and managed to build Tiedun Logistics into one of the top three in the province in ten years.

This kind of person is actually Ye Chen's second brother?

Jiang Ruoxi secretly glanced at Ye Chen, who was arguing with Zhou Wantong, and suddenly realized that she probably knew less than the tip of the iceberg about her fiancé.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Zhou Wantong and Song Tiezhu left behind the specific cooperation plan and contract for Jiang Ruoxi's legal team to review.

"Niece, don't be so polite with your uncle." Zhou Wantong said, holding Jiang Ruoxi's hand as he left, his face full of kindness.

"We're family. If the Qiao family dares to cause trouble again, just give me a call and I'll make sure their projects in the provincial capital are all ruined."

I dare not say about other things, but in the building materials industry, if Zhou Wantong stomped his foot, the ground in the provincial capital would tremble.

Song Tiezhu remained as taciturn as ever, only uttering two words: "The same."

Then the two men, along with their respective entourages, got into the cars. Three Mercedes-Benz vans and two Land Rover SUVs drove out of the Jiang Group's gate in a single file, making an even grander spectacle than when they arrived.

Ye Chen stood at the door waving goodbye, and only lowered his hand after the convoy had driven far away, letting out a long sigh of relief.

"Honey, things are settled. Shall we have a big celebration tonight?"

Jiang Ruoxi stood there with her arms crossed, staring at Ye Chen with a scrutinizing gaze that made Ye Chen feel uneasy.

"Ye Chen, shouldn't you give me a proper explanation? What exactly is this Medicine King Valley of yours? Who is your master? And who are your senior uncles, aunts, brothers, and sisters that I don't know about?"

Ye Chen scratched his head, looking troubled: "Wife, it's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that our sect has rules, we can't just tell outsiders..."

"Am I an outsider?" Jiang Ruoxi raised an eyebrow, her voice not loud, but carrying a unique CEO-like aura of authority.

Ye Chen immediately backed down: "No, no, of course you're not an outsider, but..."

"But what?"

"But my master said that there are some things I can only tell you after we are officially married."

Jiang Ruoxi blushed slightly and spat lightly, "Who wants to officially marry you? Dream on."
