Chapter 108

Monday, X International officially settled in Hai City.

The headquarters building of X International was located at No. 868 Wanhu Middle Road, a skyscraper. Previously, this was a large shopping mall owned by the Xiao Group, but later, due to the decline of the Xiao Group and the emergence of the Yunhai Shopping Mall, this mall gradually became vacant. Xiao Group had no choice but to transfer the land for a substantial sum.

This skyscraper was built in the past two years on the foundation of the former mall, retaining part of the mall and directly rebuilding a 40-story tower on the other part.

People originally thought this place would become a commercial district integrating a shopping mall and office buildings. Only now did they realize that X International's relocation to Hai City was not a spur of the moment decision but had been planned early on.

X International officially issued a tender notice. From today on, for the next thirty days, any company with the intention to bid can participate in the tender without any restrictions.

Ye Jinchen had been in meetings all morning. As he came out of the conference room, his assistant Lin Yijun reported, "Mr. Ye, X International has sent an invitation, inviting you to attend the opening banquet at the X International headquarters at 7 pm tonight."

Upon hearing this, Ye Jinchen paused his steps, his heart pounding wildly. Would he be able to see his idol Sean tonight? No, he must prepare well for today.

Although Ye Jinchen was ecstatic inside, he remained as calm as an old dog on the surface. He nodded at Lin Yijun, recalling what his mother had said before, and coughed lightly in an awkward manner, "Assistant Lin, accompany me to the banquet tonight."

Lin Yijun nodded in agreement, as she naturally also wanted to go and broaden her horizons.

"Also, please prepare a gift to bring along tonight."

"Yes."

Ye Jinchen thought it over and felt it was inappropriate. "Never mind, I'll prepare it myself. That way, it shows more sincerity."

Lin Yijun: "...Understood."

Ye Junwen came over to deliver documents and happened to overhear the conversation between the two. An idea crossed his mind, and he took out his phone to send a message to Xiao Jianren.

...

Although Jian Hongmei was hospitalized, and Xiao Wenyao felt sorry for his wife, he still found a reliable caregiver for the sake of the company's bid and returned to work at the office.T/his chapter is updated by nov(ê(l)biin.co/m

A fashion design studio was set up on the ground floor of Ye's Group, featuring all of Ye's Group's clothing, jewelry, and cosmetics.

Whenever Lin Yijun accompanied Ye Jinchen to attend banquets, they would come here for styling.

Ye Jinchen had never paid much attention before, but this time, possibly influenced by Gu Qi's words, he truly noticed that Lin Yijun was indeed very beautiful.

Lin Yijun usually wore light makeup and had her hair tied in a high ponytail, giving off a very professional and powerful career woman vibe.

But after styling, with her slightly curled hair cascading over her shoulders, her eyebrows and eyes exuding a gentle charm, her slender figure radiating a graceful and elegant yet seductive beauty.

"Mr. Ye?" Lin Yijun noticed Ye Jinchen staring at her in a daze, and her face flushed slightly as she called out softly.

Ye Jinchen came back to his senses, realizing his lapse, and explained awkwardly, "Sorry, I was just thinking about something. Let's go."

Lin Yijun nodded and followed Ye Jinchen into the car.

After receiving the message from Ye Junwen this afternoon, Xiao Jianren had already bribed a cash-strapped truck driver, whose vehicle was now parked near Ye's Group. At this moment, Xiao Jianren was waiting at the next traffic light intersection for Ye Jinchen's car to appear.

Xiao Jianren curved her lips into a smile. As soon as Ye Jinchen's car left Ye's Group, the truck would follow closely behind. If an opportunity presented itself, the truck would ram into Ye Jinchen's car, causing him to either die or be crippled.

Xiao Jianren watched the intersection intently and finally spotted Ye Jinchen's car, along with the large truck following closely behind.

Glancing at the traffic light, Xiao Jianren was delighted. At this speed, Ye Jinchen would reach the intersection just as the light turned red, and if the truck behind pretended to be unable to brake and accelerated instead, the plan would succeed!

After giving the truck driver clear instructions through her Bluetooth earpiece, Xiao Jianren stood by the road to watch the show.

Ye Jinchen and Lin Yijun sat in the back seat, discussing the tender, while Uncle Li, the driver, kept watching the rearview mirror. Seeing the large truck so close behind, Uncle Li was extremely annoyed.

He cursed silently: Does this truck driver even know how to drive? This is a nearly billion-dollar Rolls-Royce! With so much traffic, others would stay far away from this car if they saw it, but this truck is following so closely and not maintaining a safe distance. Isn't he afraid of a rear-end collision?

Uncle Li had been a driver for the Ye family for many years and had never been involved in any active or passive accidents. He was truly a skilled veteran driver, and his remarkable achievements could not be ruined by this truck.

Thinking this, he glanced at the traffic light ahead. As long as he could pass through this intersection before the yellow light came on, he was confident the truck would not be able to keep up with him!
