Chapter 693: Chapter 667 Shocked

Very soon, a table full of delicious dishes was cleared away.

Ye Chen originally wanted to clean up, but under Lin Wanrou’s insistence, he had to stay aside.

After Lin Wanrou finished cleaning the table and washing the dishes, she returned to the living room.

She saw that Ye Chen had already fallen asleep on the sofa.

She nudged Ye Chen, signaling him to go sleep in the bedroom.

Having not seen Lin Wanrou for so many days, how could Ye Chen let this beauty go?

Sunlight streamed through the curtains, and feeling the brightness, Ye Chen opened his eyes and looked at the girl still sound asleep next to him.

Ye Chen got up gently, but still ended up waking Lin Wanrou.

“Sir, why are you up so early?” Lin Wanrou looked at the clock and said.

“Oh, I have some things to take care of,” Ye Chen replied.

He glanced at the clock, his mouth twitching; it was already half past nine, he should say he was actually late.

“Sir, wait a moment, I’ll make you breakfast. You can leave after you eat.” Lin Wanrou also got up and dressed.

“No need, you sleep a bit more.” With that, Ye Chen kissed her on the forehead.

Lin Wanrou obediently nodded and climbed back into the warm covers.

After washing up, Ye Chen drove the Cullinan to the courier station.

He needed to pick up the parcels at the courier point every day before delivering them door to door.

As soon as Ye Chen walked into the courier company, he heard scolding.

“You pigbrain, you delivered to the wrong place again, what do you think you’re doing?”

A middle-aged man, looking all high and mighty, pointed at a short, somewhat plump young man.

The young man didn’t dare say a word, just kept nodding.

And the others around were also silent, all with their heads down as if they had made a mistake.

Upon seeing this, Ye Chen was very angry, even though he didn’t know this young man, seeing the manager berate the employee like that, he certainly couldn’t just stand by.

“Couriers are people too, they have dignity. Do you have to berate someone so shamelessly?” Ye Chen said angrily.

Manager Zhang hadn’t noticed Ye Chen’s presence just now, because he looked down on these people from the heart.

Looking at the handsome young man before him, Manager Zhang coldly said, “Who do you think you are, daring to meddle in my affairs?”

The couriers who had their heads down and said nothing thought that the young man’s arrogant words meant Ye Chen was a leader, finally someone was speaking for them, but when they heard Ye Chen’s reply, they were all dumbfounded.

“Oh, I’m a courier.” Ye Chen replied calmly.

Boom, everyone knew that this courier named Ye Chen would definitely meet a miserable fate, or even lose his job.

Maybe this kid just wanted to have a moment’s thrill, but the manager’s anger was something he couldn’t bear.

“Oh? New here, huh? What’s your name, why haven’t I seen you before?” Manager Zhang said with a mocking face.

He didn’t actually care about the young man’s name, he just wanted an excuse to drive Ye Chen out of the courier company.

Ye Chen smiled and said, “Yeah, my name is Ye Chen.”

Hearing this name, Manager Zhang’s expression turned even more unpleasant; yesterday he received a complaint from a lady, apparently about this Ye Chen.

“Well, Ye Chen, you got a complaint on your first day at work yesterday, I think you’re not suited to be a courier at all,” Manager Zhang said with an angry face, but his heart was filled with joy.

Looks like he didn’t even need to find faults, they were laid right before him.

Hearing Manager Zhang’s words, everyone looked at the handsome young man with pity, knowing Manager Zhang was a vengeful person, and Ye Chen had just stood up to him, surely he would lose the job next.

“That woman was unreasonable, I think I did nothing wrong.” Ye Chen said without a trace of panic, calmly.

“You still dare to talk back? Working in the service industry, you should understand that the customer is always right.” Manager Zhang said angrily.

“Oh, so whatever the customer says goes, right? Don’t you have a brain?” Ye Chen retorted.

“You… you are just a courier, and yet you dare to contradict a leader. I will definitely fire you.” Manager Zhang was so angry he started stuttering.

Since becoming a manager, no employee had ever dared to contradict him; encountering Ye Chen repeatedly disrespecting him today naturally made him enraged.

“You’re the manager, so what? What’s the difference between us?” With that, he looked at the other couriers.

But no one chimed in with him; Ye Chen felt a bit helpless, it was these timid attitudes that let Manager Zhang be so arrogant, treating them like they were not even people.

Since he was the boss of this company, he must change this unhealthy culture.

Seeing no one paid attention to Ye Chen, Manager Zhang sneered, “Kid, see that? Don’t just boast for a moment, they are sensible people, it’s unlikely they would stand by your side.”

Ye Chen ignored him, standing still in contemplation.

Manager Zhang thought he was scared, and with a mocking expression he said, “Kid, if you kneel down to me and admit your mistake, I might show you mercy and let it slide.”

“Ye Chen, why are you so stubborn, it’s so hard to find a job now.”

“Ye Chen, a wise man doesn’t fight when the odds are against him, just admit a mistake and it’s over.”

Everyone was trying to persuade Ye Chen to give in, after all, a leg can’t twist a thigh.

Ye Chen was obviously different from them, he delivered parcels not to make a living but for the system rewards.

If it were back in the days when he had no money, Ye Chen wouldn’t admit a mistake either, as he was rather straightforward.

While everyone was waiting for Ye Chen to admit his mistake, at that moment a security guard rushed in from outside, panting, “Manager Zhang, the head office just called saying the new boss is arriving today, but a luxury car parked at the entrance is a bit obstructive, maybe you should contact the owner to move the car.”

“Hmm, contact them then, and ask the owner to move the car quickly.” Manager Zhang’s expression was a bit tense.

He had heard the new boss was coming, but hadn’t expected it so soon.

With the arrival of the new boss, there would definitely be personnel changes; he had originally planned to smooth things over, but didn’t expect it to happen so soon. However, he thought he should perform well later, and there shouldn’t be any problems.

“Are you talking about the Cullinan?” Ye Chen looked at the security guard and asked.

The security guard didn’t know what a Cullinan was, just kept saying, “It’s a luxury car.”

“No need to call, I’ll go move the car now,” Ye Chen said calmly.

“Kid, have you gone mad for money? What right do you have to drive such a luxury car?” The ridicule on Manager Zhang’s face deepened.

Even as a company manager, he hadn’t driven such a luxury car, how could Ye Chen, a courier, drive it? The thought itself was an enormous joke.

The security guard understood Manager Zhang’s implication and hurriedly took out his phone to call the car owner.

At this moment, a phone’s ringtone echoed in the hall, and everyone was surprised as their eyes turned to Ye Chen.
