Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group-Chapter 788 - 762: Facing Reality

"Slap!" Another loud slap echoed.

Kang Zhen covered his swollen face, his eyes widened, shocked that his father had slapped him again for an outsider.

"I’ll say it again, apologize to Chairman Ye quickly." Kang Hua was really furious this time.

Ye Chen looked at everything unfolding before him with a mocking expression.

"Dad, am I even your biological son? You hit me for a poor kid? Isn’t he just Uncle Song’s driver?" Kang Zhen roared.

The people around looked at Kang Zhen as if he were an idiot.

"Poor man?"

"Driver?"

This brainless guy actually said the Group’s chairman was a poor man. If Ye Chen was considered poor, then what were they?

Kang Hua was really driven mad by his son, his old face flushed red seeing the mocking gazes of the people around him.

From start to finish, Ye Chen didn’t say a word.

Kang Hua knew Chairman Ye wanted to see how he would handle the situation, whether he would be partial.

Without hesitation, he went up and gave Kang Zhen a beating, leaving Kang Zhen with bruises all over.

Under his father’s heavy blows, Kang Zhen no longer dared to be stubborn and finally yielded.

"Chairman Ye, I’m sorry, I was wrong." The physical pain made his voice become softer.

Seeing Ye Chen remain silent, Kang Hua continued to beat his idiotic son, shouting angrily: "You brat, you’ve become arrogant, have you? Chairman Ye is your father’s boss, yet you dare to see him as a poor man, a driver? Have dogs eaten your brain?"

"Dad, I know I was wrong, please stop hitting me." Kang Zhen pleaded.

"Alright, Old Kang, that’s enough. Any more and there’ll be a murder." Ye Chen waved his hand and said.

Kang Zhen let out a sigh of relief; he had been waiting for Ye Chen to say this. Had Ye Chen not spoken, he would have continued receiving blows.

He was most worried that his foolish son would jeopardize his position in the board of directors.

Even though every beat was painful on Kang Zhen, it also hurt Kang Hua.

To know that from childhood, Kang Hua never laid a finger on his son.

Now Kang Zhen finally realized the reality, looking at the young man before him; his eyes were full of shock: "So ’Chairman Ye’ wasn’t a name, it’s a title."

He mainly never imagined the casually dressed Ye Chen was indeed the chairman of Marriott Group.

Thinking about how he had just confronted Ye Chen at the Hotel, his heart filled with fear.

Kang Hua also looked at his son with an expression that hated iron for not becoming steel. His son had just returned from abroad, and Kang Hua intended to find him a position in Marriott Group, but now, he offended Chairman Ye, so don’t even think about it.

"Chairman Ye, it’s all because I failed to properly discipline him regularly, that’s why this happened." Kang Hua said humbly. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"Old Kang, don’t worry, I’m not one to fuss over such things with a child." Ye Chen said generously.

"A child?"

Kang Zhen was much older than Ye Chen, yet Ye Chen still called him a child. Although feeling annoyed, there was nothing he could do.

Even his own father dared not provoke him, going against Ye Chen himself would be suicidal.

Kang Hua was initially sweating; hearing Ye Chen say that, he finally felt relief.

"Let’s go, we should get some desserts, take a break, then continue the meeting discussion." Ye Chen said lightly.

Kang Zhen lay on the ground bruised, Ye Chen glanced over and said: "Old Kang, you should have someone send your son home quickly."

Looking at the man lying on the ground covered in injuries, Ye Chen was also taken aback, thinking Kang Hua had indeed been ruthless.

It was actually Kang Hua’s performance that satisfied Ye Chen, which was why he didn’t pursue the matter further.

Liu Tian also heard the commotion and rushed out of the lounge, seeing Ye Chen surrounded by the crowd and the middle-aged man publicly beating Kang Zhen, she was even more convinced that this Ye Chen was extraordinary.

Ye Chen led the group into the lounge where desserts and coffee were prepared.

Since Kang Zhen was too injured to leave alone, Kang Hua arranged for someone to send him off in accordance with Ye Chen’s instructions.

Before leaving, Kang Hua touched his son’s slightly swollen face and said: "Xiao Zhen, don’t blame your father for being ruthless. If I hadn’t done this, it would have been worse for you."

Kang Zhen, knowing Ye Chen’s true identity now, regretted his previous actions deeply and held no grudge against Kang Hua.

"Dad, it’s because of me that you were nearly implicated too." Kang Zhen said feeling responsible.

Kang Hua said affectionately: "Xiao Zhen, go home and rest well, I’ll arrange for a doctor to visit you at home."

After saying this, he also entered the lounge where Ye Chen was.

Ye Chen looked at Kang Hua as he entered and said: "Old Kang, the arrangement for your son is all set."

"Yes, thank you, Chairman Ye, for your generosity." Kang Hua flushed said.

He initially thought Ye Chen would kick him out of the board because of his son’s actions, but to his surprise, Ye Chen let him stay.

At this moment, Kang Hua’s admiration for Ye Chen grew even stronger, swearing to serve the Group diligently.

Ye Chen smiled and said: "Old Kang, there’s no need to be so formal."

...

Remembering the harsh words Kang Zhen uttered when he entered the building earlier, the young security guard felt a sense of unease.

The entire afternoon, he was uneasy, knowing he had annoyed someone he shouldn’t have, there’s no way he could stay here.

The security captain learned of this and afraid of being implicated too, reported it to superiors and scolded him sternly, also told him to get lost to avoid being a nuisance.

Though feeling wronged, he had no choice, as the saying goes, the arm can’t twist the thigh.

As he packed his things to leave, he suddenly saw a young man being carried out.

The young security guard glanced over thinking he seemed familiar, pondered for a while and realized it was the person who just said he’d fire him; how did he end up like this now?

"Why are you still here?" Seeing the young security guard standing dazed at the door, the security captain asked with an annoyed expression.

"Captain Zhang, do you know who that person is?" The young security guard asked curiously.

The security captain replied indifferently: "How would I know? Moreover, does it concern you? Hurry up and leave, it’s embarrassing to get fired."

The young security guard said with a poker face: "It seems like the person who just said they’d fire me."

"What a joke, how could someone with such power be beaten like that?" the security captain said dismissively, as if he heard a joke.

Thinking that the young security guard was stalling, the captain impatiently said: "You better leave, don’t linger here anymore, you might drag me down too."

"But, I didn’t do anything wrong, I want to see the leadership and explain the situation." The young guard said unwillingly.

"Save it, with your status, wanting to see the leadership is pure fantasy. I advise you to be less stubborn in your actions in the future. Offending who you shouldn’t, you won’t keep your job." The security captain advised seriously.
