Chapter 473 One Hundred Billion is the Reason to Forgive You

Ye Tian took the call. Li Yuankun sighed, "Brother, I can only shamelessly ask you to let him go."

"I naturally have to give Master Li face."

Li Yuankun thanked him repeatedly, then spoke sternly to Zhou Qibing over the phone.

After hanging up, Zhou Qibing breathed a sigh of relief, "King Ye, thank you for letting me off the hook."

Ye Tian replied, "You're welcome. I'm giving face to Li Yuankun. If I encounter you again, you won't be so lucky."

Zhou Qibing smiled, "That won't happen. I'll leave here immediately and seek a living elsewhere."

Ye Tian had Wen Lingdu release everyone, and Wen Lingdu complied. Returning, he looked expectantly at Ye Tian and asked, "Mr. Ye, is there anything else you need me to do?"

Ye Tian said indifferently, "Your Wen family's intentions are malicious. You won't learn your lesson unless you're hurt."

He paused and continued, "Give yourselves ten days to prepare one hundred billion. If you're short by even a cent, your Wen family can expect to decline."

Wen Lingdu was stunned. One hundred billion! Although his Wen family was influential, one hundred billion would be a severe blow. He quickly said, "Mr. Ye, it's truly difficult for us to come up with one hundred billion in cash..."

Ye Tian said calmly, "You need to understand one thing: who made the mistake. Mistakes come with a price. One hundred billion is my reason for forgiving you. Without this reason, on what grounds would you expect forgiveness?"

Wen Lingdu was speechless. He lowered his head, "Please allow me to discuss this with my family."

As he walked out to make a call, Ye Shaodong whispered, "Xiao Tian, isn't one hundred billion a bit too much?"

Ye Tian replied, "It's not too much. I originally intended to bankrupt them. However, following the principle of leaving some room for others, I didn't do that."

A few minutes later, Wen Lingdu returned and said, "We can prepare one hundred billion. However, we request Mr. Ye to guarantee that the Wen family will not face any further issues."

Ye Tian responded, "I can only return your ancestors' coffins. I cannot guarantee your safety."

Wen Lingdu was silent for a few seconds, "Alright. Please provide your account details, Mr. Ye, and we will transfer the funds as soon as possible."

Ye Tian gave them the account he had left with Wu Zongnian.

Afterward, Wen Lingdu took his leave, as they had to prepare the cash. One hundred billion was not a small sum, and they would need to sell some assets to gather the money.

After this group left, Ye Shaodong smiled, "Xiao Bei, we've been postponing the engagement banquet because we were waiting for you. Now that you're home, why not set it for tomorrow?"

Ye Tian slapped his forehead, "I almost forgot about that. Brother, don't worry, I'll handle the arrangements for the engagement banquet."

With the engagement tomorrow, a hotel needed to be secured. Ye Tian called Zhou Jianrong. Zhou Jianrong was the second wealthiest magnate on the Hai City rich list, experienced and knowledgeable, so asking him was no problem.

When Zhou Jianrong heard that Ye Tian's brother was getting engaged, he smiled, "What a coincidence. I own a high-end hotel called 'Yunlan Villa.' Your brother's engagement banquet can be held there."

Ye Tian smiled, "Okay, thank you, Boss Zhou."

Zhou Jianrong replied, "Oh, Mr. Ye, you're too kind. Last time you cured my daughter's anorexia, I haven't had a chance to thank you properly."

Ye Tian said, "It's a doctor's duty, it's what I should do. By the way, have you investigated the origin of the girl who gave the Buddha amulet to your daughter?"

Zhou Jianrong said, "Mr. Ye, I was just about to tell you about this. Since you're coming to Yunlan Villa anyway, why don't we discuss it when we meet?"

"Alright, I'll be there immediately."

Ye Tian also wanted to check out the environment at Yunlan Villa, so he rode Ye Shaodong's motorcycle there.

Ye Shaodong had recently taken up motorcycles, riding models over 1000cc.

He drove quite fast, and in about ten minutes, he arrived at Yunlan Villa. The gatekeeper asked for his name and quickly opened the main gate.

As soon as Ye Tian's car stopped, Zhou Jianrong walked over and smiled, "Mr. Ye!"

Ye Tian commented, "Boss Zhou, your place has a nice environment."

Zhou Jianrong smiled, "My hardware and services are the best in Hai City. Even in Zhonghai, there aren't many hotels that can compare."

Ye Tian nodded, "It is indeed very good."

After inviting Ye Tian to his office, Zhou Jianrong explained that the place was mainly used for internal reception. Because they often hosted distinguished guests, they invested in Yunlan Villa for convenience.

After some small talk, Zhou Jianrong got to the main topic, saying, "Mr. Ye, I've investigated the girl who harmed my daughter. Her background is not simple, so I've arranged for my daughter to transfer schools."
