One Hundred Billion?!
Ye Chen's eyes widened in astonishment.
He knew his grandfather's family was very wealthy, but when he was younger, he didn't have a concept of money. He only knew that the Ye family was one of the top families in Yanjing and throughout the country.
But he wasn't clear about the exact amount of money. However, at this moment, he figured it out.
One hundred billion was just pocket money; the entire Ye family's wealth was probably over a trillion!
To be honest, he felt a flutter of excitement deep inside at this moment.
But thinking of his parents' deaths, for which his grandfather was partly responsible, he found it difficult to forgive.
Tang Sihai noticed his dilemma and hurriedly said, "Young Master, you are a member of the Ye family, this money is rightfully yours, and strictly speaking, this money belongs to your father."
"The old master said, if you are willing to return, you will inherit the family's trillion-dollar fortune. If you are not willing to return, consider this money as your living expenses."
"Oh, by the way, Jingling's largest company, the Emperor Group, with a market value of one hundred billion RMB, was fully acquired by the Ye family yesterday. Now, all the shares are in your name. You can go to the Emperor Group tomorrow for the handover!"
Ye Chen was somewhat incredulous.
The Ye family's investment for their sake was too significant, wasn't it?
A black card worth one hundred billion, and the Emperor Group worth one trillion!
Although Jingling was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, the only true god was the Emperor Group. Any family had to bow down before the Emperor Group; it was the emperor in the commercial realm of Jingling!
Even the Xiao family and the Wang family, who humiliated him today, and the Zhang family pursuing Xiao Churan, were all insignificant before the Emperor Group!
He never expected it would be his now?
At this moment, Tang Sihai handed him a business card and said, "Young Master, you may need to calm down and think about it carefully. I won't disturb you anymore. Here is my phone number, feel free to contact me if you need anything!"
After saying that, Tang Sihai turned and left.
After he left, Ye Chen remained in place, dumbfounded.
He didn't know if he should accept the compensation from the Ye family.
But, on second thought, the ups and downs he had experienced over the past decade, the humiliation he endured after marrying into the Xiao family - weren't these the compensation from the Ye family? Why wouldn't he accept it?
Moreover, Aunt Li's medical expenses still needed two million urgently.
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and immediately turned back to the payment counter, "Hello, I want to pay the two million."
Swipe the card, enter the password, transaction successful.
Two million effortlessly transferred to the hospital's account.
Ye Chen felt like he was in a daze.
He suddenly became a trillionaire?
...
He returned home dazedly.
The house was in chaos at this time.
Xiao Churan and her parents didn't live in the Xiao family villa but in a very ordinary apartment.
Since Xiao Churan married him and Mr. Xiao passed away, they were kicked out.
His mother-in-law was cursing loudly at home: "That waste Ye Chen! He brought shame upon our family today! If you don't divorce him today, your grandmother might kick you out of the Xiao Group!"
Xiao Churan said, "If she kicks me out, I'll find another job."
"You..." His mother-in-law said angrily, "What's good about that waste? Why can't you divorce him and marry Zhang Wenhao? If you marry Zhang Wenhao, our family will have dignity!"
His father-in-law added, "That's right! Marry Zhang Wenhao, and our family will immediately rise in your grandmother's eyes. She flatters you every day."
Xiao Churan said, "Stop it, I won't divorce Ye Chen."
"You stubborn child!"
They were about to persuade her again when Ye Chen pushed the door open and entered.
Seeing him, both his father-in-law and mother-in-law looked grim.
His mother-in-law snorted, "A waste like you still has the face to come back!"
Ye Chen sighed inwardly. His mother-in-law always looked down on him. But if she knew that he was now the owner of the Emperor Group, with a hundred billion in cash, how would she react?
But for now, Ye Chen wasn't ready to let anyone know his identity.
Having been away from the Ye family for many years, who knew what the situation in the Ye family was now? What if someone in the Ye family was hostile to him?
So, it's better to keep a low profile for now.
He lowered his head apologetically and said, "Mom, I'm sorry for causing you trouble today."
His mother-in-law said coldly, "It's not just trouble you've caused, you're putting our family of three in jeopardy! Can't you have a little self-awareness and get out of our house quickly?"
Xiao Churan hurriedly said, "Mom, how can you say that? Ye Chen is your son-in-law!"
"Nonsense!" His mother-in-law said hatefully, "I don't have such a useless son-in-law! The farther he goes, the better!"
Xiao Churan pushed Ye Chen gently, "Quick, go back to the room."
Ye Chen nodded gratefully and fled back to the bedroom.
He had been married to Xiao Churan for three years, but they hadn't truly lived as husband and wife during those three years. Xiao Churan slept on the bed, while he slept on a mattress on the floor beside it.
That night, Ye Chen couldn't sleep for a long time.
What had happened today was truly shocking, and he couldn't digest it all at once.
Before going to sleep, Xiao Churan said to him, "How is Aunt Li? I still have tens of thousands of yuan in my personal savings. Tomorrow, you can take it to her."
Ye Chen replied, "It's unnecessary. Someone has already paid for Aunt Li and sent her to Yanjing for treatment."
"Really?" Xiao Churan said joyfully, "Aunt Li is saved?"
"Yes," Ye Chen said, "Aunt Li has done so much good in her life, helping so many people. Now, someone has finally repaid her."
"That's good," Xiao Churan nodded, then said to Ye Chen, "Now you can relax a bit."
"Yes," Ye Chen agreed.
Xiao Churan added, "I need to sleep. There's been a lot going on at the company recently, and I'm exhausted."
Ye Chen asked, "Is something wrong with the company?"
Xiao Churan replied, "Business hasn't been going well. Grandma has been wanting to cooperate with big companies like the Emperor Group, but the Xiao family's strength is still lacking, so they aren't interested."
Suddenly, Ye Chen thought of the Emperor Group and asked her, "Hasn't the Xiao family cooperated with the Emperor Group?"
Xiao Churan laughed self-deprecatingly, "How could the Emperor Group be interested in the Xiao family? Even Wei Wei's fiancé, Wang Yunfei's family can only barely get a connection with the Emperor Group. Grandma is hoping that after they get married, the Wang family can help the Xiao family connect with the Emperor Group."
Ye Chen nodded.
So, the Xiao family had been trying hard to cooperate with the Emperor Group.
But, Grandma Xiao probably never imagined that the Emperor Group was now his...
Thinking of this, Ye Chen decided to take over the Emperor Group first, then use it to help Xiao Churan. She had been bullied too much in the Xiao family, and as her husband, he had a responsibility to elevate her status in the family.
Churan, from today onwards, things will be different!
I won't let anyone look down on you anymore!
I will make the entire Xiao family bow to you!
