Chapter 463 - 215: Beauty and Billions—Which Will You Choose?
Zhou Rui felt a bit sad, but she still smiled and said, "But I think that’s what makes him so special. If it were someone else, they’d jump at the chance to agree, but he actually refused. That’s really unique."
Companion: "Sis, you’re not falling for him, are you? That’s a bit outrageous; it’s too soon, isn’t it? You’ve only known him for less than two hours, right? Don’t tell me you’re attracted to him just for his looks."
Zhou Rui: "Oh, stop it! Don’t make up stories. Hurry up and help me to the ward."
The companion nodded and helped Zhou Rui to the ward.
After settling Zhou Rui down, the companion went out to call her father, Zhou Hai.
She reported the entire situation in detail to Zhou Hai and also mentioned that Zhou Rui might have taken a liking to the good-hearted driver who acted bravely.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Hai panicked. What the heck?
His little cabbage that’s been raised for 23 years is going to be taken away by a wild boar she just met for less than two hours?
How can that be?
It’s normal for grown-up cabbage to be taken, but he needs to know which family’s wild boar it is and what kind of character the boar has.
Zhou Hai hurriedly took his wife to Longmei Hospital.
After understanding the situation, Zhou Hai asked the hospital to call Yang Chen to have him come over.
Yang Chen was in the middle of driving a customer and didn’t answer the phone.
After the passenger got off, Yang Chen called the hospital back, learned the situation, and then came over.
Soon, under the guidance of a nurse, Yang Chen arrived at Zhou Rui’s ward.
Zhou Hai shook hands with Yang Chen with a smile and thanked him, "Young man, thank you. Don’t worry about the medical bills, just give me the bill and I’ll reimburse you. This matter has nothing to do with you, and it’s great that you brought Rui Rui for treatment; you shouldn’t have to pay."
Yang Chen: "I’m not paying out of my own pocket; I’m covering the medical expenses for that uncle. Mr. Zhou, why did you call me over?"
Zhou Hai: "Well, my daughter likes you. Here’s a check for a hundred million; if you accept it, you’ll be the son-in-law of the Zhou Family from now on. We only have one girl, Rui Rui. As long as you treat her well, in the future, the family wealth of tens of billions will be yours."
Zhou Rui’s mother, Wang Li, also smiled and said, "Young man, don’t get us wrong. We sincerely want you to be our son-in-law; there’s no disrespect here."
Zhou Rui quickly covered her face and said, "Dad, Mom, what are you doing? This kind of thing can’t be forced; it needs to be fate."
After that, she hid her head under the covers.
It’s normal for a girl to be a bit shy, but the fact that she didn’t outright refuse suggested she genuinely wanted to develop a relationship with Yang Chen.
The nurse standing by was completely baffled. Tens of billions in assets, and a beautiful girl too—how could Mr. Yang resist such temptation?
Zhou Hai thought to himself, "Ruirui wanted to add you as a friend, and you refused. Now that I’ve laid out our family’s assets, if you agree, it means you’re solely after the money. In that case, you can forget about getting close to Ruirui. No matter what, I’ll make sure you’re out of the picture."
Tens of billions is indeed a hefty sum, but to this day, Yang Chen would absolutely not marry someone he has no feelings for just for money.
In terms of their family backgrounds, Xue Yinong and Tang Xia are far superior to this Zhou Rui, aren’t they?
Yang Chen still has feelings for them, so why would he choose a Zhou Rui, whom he doesn’t have feelings for?
Therefore, Yang Chen quickly replied, "Mr. Zhou, thank you for your kind offer, but I’m just a ride-hailing driver, accustomed to a simple and free life. If I actually had tens of billions in assets, I definitely wouldn’t be able to adapt. Miss Zhou is very pretty, and your family is well-off; you can surely find someone a hundred times better than me."
The ward went completely silent. What kind of immortal quality is this, to pass up a beautiful girl and tens of billions of assets offered right to his door?
Zhou Hai and Wang Li chuckled, their eyes filled with admiration.
But Zhou Rui felt sad. Under her blanket, she was already on the verge of tears.
Though she indeed had some feelings for Yang Chen at first sight, her parents have offered their family fortune, yet Yang Chen still refused. She felt she had no charm at all, to the point where even tens of billions couldn’t make up for it.
Zhou Hai: "Young man, don’t play it cool, and don’t try any hard-to-get tactics. This is a one-time opportunity. If you don’t accept it, even if you and Ruirui end up together in the future, I won’t leave all the assets to you. Then you’d be missing out on tens of billions."
Yang Chen smiled confidently and said, "Mr. Zhou, you’re overthinking it. Every word I said comes from the heart; I’m not playing any mind games. Since you’re here, I’ll cancel the payment I made, and you can recharge it yourselves. I need to focus on my ride-hailing job. Everyone, it’s a small world, so maybe we’ll meet again someday!"
After speaking, Yang Chen turned and left.
Zhou Rui hurriedly threw off the covers and shouted, "Brother Chen, can you at least leave a phone number?"
Yang Chen didn’t turn back, only waved his hand smoothly.
Everyone watched his magnificent figure recede, showering him with looks of admiration and respect.
In such a vast world, how many can resist the allure of a beautiful girl and tens of billions of assets?
Yang Chen managed to do it, leaving without a trace, not even leaving any contact info.
Zhou Rui couldn’t hold back her tears and fell into her mother’s arms.
Wang Li gently patted her daughter’s back, comforting her, "Ruirui, don’t cry, don’t cry. Love can’t be forced; we have great family conditions and can find someone better."
Zhou Hai: "Haha... This kid is interesting. The more he refuses, the more I want him as my son-in-law."
