However, when Ye Chen mentioned that Su Binglan descended from the sky to negotiate interests with Empress Chu for his sake, Zhang Xinlan realized how that woman could captivate Ye Chen!
Su Binglan was like an unbeatable existence who could play the cool beauty, sell the cute charm, indulge in the fresh and simple life, and even handle the taste of the extreme, no wonder she could capture Ye Chen's heart.
"So you mean to say, even though I've been by your side, you've still been with Su Binglan this whole time?!"
After quietly listening to everything, Zhang Xinlan posed the most tangible problem.
"You guess!" Ye Chen said with an embarrassed laugh.
"..."
"Hahaha, I only know that you've become a kept man, she gave you a company worth tens of billions, no wonder you're so infatuated with her!" Zhang Xinlan's words had only one meaning, which was to mock Ye Chen for living off a woman!
Ye Chen accepted the tens of billions worth of gifts from Su Binglan, and afterwards, Chu Yanran even acquired 49% of Wanshi Medicine's shares for sixty billion, Ye Chen starting this fund would swiftly dominate the entire Asia's pharmaceutical market, the level of his "kept-man" status was so awe-inspiring that he skyrocketed into a super-rich big boss worth tens of billions!
Zhang Xinlan felt jealous, envious of the wealth Su Binglan gave to Ye Chen, she also wanted to nonchalantly give Ye Chen hundreds or thousands of billions, but she didn't have it.
"We are true love!" Ye Chen declared, showing disdain for the value of money.
"What about us, then?" Zhang Xinlan smiled miserably, he and Su Binglan were true love, so what exactly were she and Ye Chen?
"You and I are even more of true love!" Ye Chen said. "Our fate is longstanding, and my childhood dream was to marry you as my wife; you are the most important person to me!"
"Hehe, you say these pleasing words, and I uncontrollably love you desperately, I'm such a joke!" Zhang Xinlan spoke with endless sorrow. "One last chance, break it off completely with her, and things can be like they were before!"
Zhang Xinlan loved Ye Chen to the bone, she didn't want to let go, and she couldn't let go, she just couldn't!
"She holds an extraordinary significance for me, and she has also told her family about our relationship, if I let go of her now, it would be even more painful than killing her!" Ye Chen said.
What Ye Chen said was the truth, upon Su Binglan's return to the capital, she inevitably faced her family's pressure to marry!
So, Su Binglan took out Ye Chen's name, and now not just the Su Family knew about Ye Chen, but the whole capital was aware of him.
Previously at the Heavenly King's banquet, that warrior from the capital's prestigious family, Yang Fan, who was Su Binglan's cousin, he knew Ye Chen, and many others in the capital's aristocratic circle also knew of Ye Chen.
Countless people in the capital were looking forward to Ye Chen's arrival, whether they were friendly or hostile, they all wanted to see clearly whether Ye Chen was truly a mighty dragon, after all, this was the man who had conquered the Su Witch!
If Ye Chen's performance fell short, then not only Su Binglan, but even the Su Family would become a laughing stock in the capital.
This was the circle of nobility, a luxurious place filled with deception and bloody struggles!
"If you won't let her go, it means you're letting me go!" Zhang Xinlan lamented.
"Xinlan, I..." Ye Chen wanted to say he would never give up on her, but Zhang Xinlan interrupted with a raised hand.
"Even if you can't bear to give up either of us, how are we going to live together?" Zhang Xinlan said calmly. "Su Binglan is dominant and assertive, a noble lady of the capital, and even if I, Zhang Xinlan, can't match her background, I refuse to be inferior to anyone!"
"I want to ask you, even if we live together peacefully by your side, then who will be the primary, and who will be secondary?" Zhang Xinlan's tone grew colder. "Which of us will be the powerful empress, and which the supportive consort on the side?!"
Zhang Xinlan was a proud woman, but her pride was not commonly seen!
Her pride lay within, she valued the internal!
Zhang Xinlan chose Ye Chen and loved him desperately because she knew Ye Chen was a man with a story!
She knew that beneath Ye Chen's unsophisticated appearance lurked a sleeping tiger, that when not roaring was calm, but whose roar could shake the heavens!
Zhang Xinlan was a low-key woman who wanted to be the halo behind the earthy Ye Chen, but now someone was trying to snatch him away, and she would certainly not show weakness!
"I, the goddess, am in no way inferior to you, not shorter, fatter or younger, equally a devastating beauty. Su Binglan wants to snatch away my man?"
Zhang Xinlan thought it was necessary to defend her dignity now.
Upon hearing Zhang Xinlan bring up who would be the empress and who would be the consort, Ye Chen's face instantly showed difficulty.
Because Su Binglan had always regarded herself as the empress, and with Zhang Xinlan aspiring for the same position, this seemed difficult, difficult, difficult, as hard as reaching the skies!
"Ye Chen, I know it's hard for you, you feel like you owe Su Binglan too much, and if you were to ignore her now, then you would be a scumbag!" Zhang Xinlan chuckled softly. "If you gave up, I would even lose respect for you!"
"What do you mean by that?"
When Ye Chen heard this, his heart filled with joy, as if there might be a turn in events!
"What I mean is, I, Zhang Xinlan, from now on will build an entertainment empire! I want to become a presence that stands shoulder to shoulder with Empress Chu, and then, with the most domineering attitude, go to the Su Family to redeem you over!" Zhang Xinlan proclaimed spiritedly, with astonishing self-confidence and the demeanor of a strong woman!
"This..."
Ye Chen was completely shocked, stunned by Zhang Xinlan's sudden display of assertiveness.
"From now on, you and Su Binglan can play as much as you want without a care in the world. That woman is quite pretty and is certainly qualified to take care of you!"
"Even if Su Binglan has a child with you, that's no problem, I will treat it as my own!"
"Ye Chen, just enjoy yourself, and wait to live off of this goddess at her strongest. One day, I will look down on that woman and take you back, completely monopolizing you!"
Zhang Xinlan spoke with such an imposing air that it seemed to surge to the skies!
She no longer appeared as a breathtaking beauty but rather like a woman oppressed!
The Su Family has a great fortune, and Zhang Xinlan felt a deep sense of oppression, but it only fueled her motivation!
In that moment, Zhang Xinlan made a majestic vow; she would work hard to build her own entertainment empire, take back what belonged to her, and break through the skies!
"Do you mean to say you can now let bygones be bygones with Su Binglan?" Ye Chen asked cautiously.
"Yes!" Zhang Xinlan nodded emphatically. "However, I am your only goddess, she is just everything else! You can play with her to your heart's content. I will help you repay her kindness, and you are destined to be mine!"
"..."
Ye Chen nearly choked on his own saliva watching Zhang Xinlan's domineering demeanor.
"You should get checked out at the hospital, don't actually hurt yourself!" Zhang Xinlan said with concern to Ye Chen, knowing his kung fu was profound, but after all, he was not a god and humans are susceptible to injury!
"I am a Divine Doctor myself, I am aware of my condition, I'm fine!" Ye Chen said. "Xinlan, are you okay?"
Ye Chen was of a Grandmaster physique, his body's resistance and recovery abilities were both at a superhuman level, and the blood he had been vomiting was mostly forced out by himself.
However, facing Su Binglan's aggressively domineering presence, he felt uneasy. She was really okay, right?
"Ye Chen, you belong only to me—past, present, and even more so in the future!" Zhang Xinlan said confidently and with a smile. "Su Binglan is merely a transition for you. Just enjoy the best of her youth; this goddess will handle any big issues for you!"
Zhang Xinlan was a highly capable woman and an extremely proud one too. Her confidence was second to none!
Su Binglan came to compete with her for Ye Chen, and Zhang Xinlan had never thought of giving up on him from the beginning. If she were to withdraw in silence now, it would mean she had lost!
Zhang Xinlan liked to be a winner in life. Even if she really were to leave Ye Chen, it would only be after defeating Su Binglan's challenge, then she would kick him to the curb without mercy!
"..."
Even though Ye Chen was reluctant to admit it, he felt like he was living off women.
Both Su Binglan and Zhang Xinlan were immensely proud individuals. To have either one of them was to enjoy the greatest of worldly pleasures!
But now, he had both women bowing down to him, and the future was unpredictable!
"There are some things to take care of at the film company, I need to oversee them personally. You go home, but you have to behave and stop causing me trouble!" Zhang Xinlan touched Ye Chen's stubble, pinched his lips, and her domineering aura emerged naturally!
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Ye Chen submitted without backbone. He had broken so many others, but he also yearned to be broken by someone else, of course, only if it was by a beautiful woman.
In the end, Zhang Xinlan left with her assertive presence, intent on building her entertainment empire and becoming an entertainment empress!
"I truly am a favorite of the heavens, not just the youngest Grandmaster in history, but also adored by such stunningly beautiful women!"
"I have to mourn for all the men in the world because my fate is just too good!"
"..."
Zhang Xinlan left coolly, and Ye Chen wasn't worried that she wouldn't return.
Because she was a proud woman, and without beating her rivals, how could she contentedly exit the stage?
Ye Chen had put on an intense act of suffering; his incessant coughing of blood and feigned death was a very high-level performance!
Unfortunately, no great director witnessed his brilliant acting, or else they would have surely dragged him into making a blockbuster movie, which could casually soar to a box office of two billion and maybe even win an Oscar...
