The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

Chapter 174: Chapter 103: A Male Lead Relative (Part 7)_2

Yes, wealthy second generations didn’t think He Thian had abilities, but thought he was shameless.

Under such complex emotions, their gazes toward He Tiantian were especially unfriendly.

Ye Chen was smart and sensitive, and he noticed right away when he entered the private room that their gazes were too piercing.

Ye Chen had always considered his relationship with Su Wenyuan to be one of ”noble friendship.” They were genuine good brothers—not mere drinking buddies.

His good relationship with Su Wenyuan was because he felt Su Wenyuan had a good character and was worth befriending, not because he was the son of the wealthiest man.

However, those who knew Su Wenyuan, upon finding out that he was just the son of a small car wash owner and his family only had an old company apartment, began to view him with inquiry.

Even the Richest Su initially doubted Ye Chen’s motives and character.

It was only after several observations, confirming that this person never thought of gaining anything through Su Wenyuan, that he somewhat let down his guard.

But the Richest Su was just a minority of sober ones in human world; many other relatives or friends of the Su Family, upon seeing Ye Chen and Su Wenyuan together, would measure Ye Chen with a particularly annoying gaze.

As if Ye Chen was a petty bourgeois greedy for vanity, or a Top-grade friend here to take advantage.

Ye Chen... Fortunately, he was sincerely making friends with Su Wenyuan and had no intention of taking advantage.

Thus, Ye Chen had no feeling of guilt but instead could stand tall in public.

But, but... Ye Chen really didn’t want to see his unfortunate cousin.

”What does Ye Tian look like?”

Humble, ingratiating, fawning, and smiling—worse than a lackey.

If it were just He Thian being He Thian, it wouldn’t matter what he did.

But the problem was, He Thian could only mix into Su Wenyuan’s social circle by riding on Ye Chen’s coattails.

Such behavior was definitely a loss of face for Ye Chen and even the entire Ye Family.

”Ah, brother, why did you just arrive! Come, come and toast Brother Wenyuan with me. Brother Wenyuan is so amazing, I was just drinking outside, and not only did he settle the bill, but he also gave each of us a VIP Black Gold Card!”

It seemed not enough humiliation for Ye Chen, He Tiantian enthusiastically waved at him.

Ye Chen’s heart felt stung, painfully hot!

Toast?

I, I and Wenyuan are equal friends, I neither ask him for anything nor bow before him.

Why use the word ”toast”?

Moreover, toasting is too humble.

The person is not a senior, but his good friend of four years in university and five years of acquaintance; toasting Su Wenyuan, Ye Chen really couldn’t do it.

His self-respect and pride didn’t allow it!

”Hehe, why say these things? I’ve said it, I and Ye Zi are brothers. Since He Thian is Ye Zi’s cousin, then he is my cousin too; settling a bill for you is a trivial matter, it’s nothing!”

Su Wenyuan felt Ye Chen’s gloominess and hurriedly chuckled to smooth things over.

”Ah, Brother Wenyuan, it’s not just about settling the bill— you also gave us two Deep Blue Bar VIP cards!”

He Tiantian, acting like a qualified lackey, praised with a slightly exaggerated tone but not making it seem like sheer flattery.

He Tiantian who had once sold healthcare products, stated that as long as she could gain benefits, she could worship the other party like ancestors.

Now, just saying some pleasing words didn’t reach the stage of bowing and scraping, and He Tiantian had no psychological burden.

Also, her pleasing of people was measured very well, making the other party happy without making them feel she was overly humble or without a baseline.

Of course, the original host’s face also played a significant role.

Previously, the original host lacked temperament, directly diminishing the good looks, and his bootlicking always had a sleazy, insincere air.

Now, replaced by He Tiantian, the entire temperament had changed.

Although still sycophanting, He Tiantian managed to let the other party feel, despite being slick, she wasn’t inherently bad.

The words of praise she said, though perhaps exaggerated, were mostly her true feelings!

After all, He Tiantian’s bootlicking always managed to hit right on the spot, making the other party very comfortable.

Over time, they would even start to regard He Tiantian as one of their own.

He Hongtu (whom He Tiantian recognized as her real father) just smiled without a word: ”Family techniques, absolutely reliable.”

However, Ye Chen, already harboring anger towards He Tiantian in his heart, couldn’t see He Tiantian’s merits; he just felt she was making a public fool of herself.
