Chapter: 1751

It's not uncommon for people with money to like doing charity, so this isn't too strange.

Ye Chen's reason sounded fine overall, and it fit well with his entire life experience.

Plus, Ku Qiuyi on the side also confirmed Ye Chen's statement, so Dong Ruolin didn't have any doubts anymore.

She was only slightly blaming him, saying: "Ye Chen, you know Miss Ku so well as a celebrity, why haven't I ever heard you mention it before?"

Ye Chen laughed and said: "You're not unaware of me. As for myself, I've never liked to show off. There's no need to always bring up my acquaintance with Miss Ku on my lips again. Besides, in everyone's eyes, I'm just a nobody. Even if I say something, people will probably still doubt it and instead laugh at me. Rather than that, why should I bother myself?"

However, Ye Chen's self-deprecation directly swept away the last bit of doubt in Dong Ruolin's mind.

She thought back to when she was a student, and Ye Chen was bullied by others at school, even by classmates from similar backgrounds who would take advantage of him.

But he never took it personally or argued with anyone, as if everything was irrelevant to him.

Given Ye Chen's personality, it was indeed impossible for him to reveal his knowledge of Ku Family members to others.

And even if he did say something, no one would believe it.

Thinking about this, she actually developed a certain admiration for Ye Chen.

She recognized the Ku family and referred to their daughter as her sister, but had never told anyone about this, preferring to be looked down upon rather than using this connection, which was indeed extremely rare.

However, she still had a hint of concern.

Because just now, she saw Ye Chen being affectionate with Ku Family's Miss. She felt that the two seemed to have some abnormal relationship, after all.

So she decided to ask tentatively: "Ye Chen, did you initially know about your connection with Miss Ku?"

Ye Chen smiled and counter-questioned, "Do you know about Nine Xuan Stomach Powder?"

"I do," Dong Ruo Lin nodded slightly and said, "Isn't this a super popular medicine with extremely magical effects that's been trending lately? Oh, I think it was also endorsed by Ms. Gu."

Ye Chen asked her again, "So you know the manufacturer of Nine Xuan Stomach Powder, which is Jialing Corporation in Jinling?"

Dong Ruo Lin continued to nod, "Yes, I do."

Ye Chen laughed and said, "When Qi Yin went to Jinling for filming an advertisement, she also had dinner with me and Churan. However, since Qi Yin is a public figure, I didn't tell anyone about this."

"This is it..." Dong Ruo Lin suddenly understood and asked Ye Chen, "So Churan already knew that you two were familiar with each other back then?"

Ye Chen shook her head, "Actually, at the time, I didn't tell Churan or anyone else about the true situation. It was because Qi Yin was on a work trip, and I didn't want others to know about my relationship with Qi Yin, so as not to drag her down with my own flaws. So, at that time, I didn't tell Churan or any other person about this matter. Actually, it's only because I ran into you today that I'm telling you now."

Dong Ruo Lin lightly nodded and listened to Ye Chen's self-deprecating remarks, feeling a sudden pang of sadness and said, "Ye Chen, don't always think so lowly of yourself. You're actually very talented, and I think few people can compare with you!"

These words came from the bottom of Dong Ruo Lin's heart.

She truly felt that Ye Chen was not ordinary, and even just in terms of her abilities, she was far beyond what most people could match. JrNovels.com
