Chapter: 6411
It was only natural that Ye Chen, having saved the An family twice from life and death, would have a debt to repay. Lee Xiaolin didn't need to be mentioned.
Without Ye Chen's rescue, his body riddled with bullet holes would probably have already decomposed in the American soil where he was buried.
Ye Chen stopped the car steadily and got out with He Yuanjiang on both sides. His maternal uncle had already taken a step forward, smiling and calling out "Chen-er!"
Ye Chen hurriedly greeted everyone: "Maternal Uncle, Second Maternal Uncle, Third Maternal Uncle, Little Aunt, Lee Lieutenant."
After that, he quickly introduced the person beside him to the five others: "Let me introduce you to this person. This is my mother's old schoolmate, He Yuanjiang, Professor He, who used to work on Wall Street and later taught at Jinling University of Finance and Economics."
His maternal uncle An Kai-feng immediately nodded his head and said, "Professor He, I've heard of your big name from the streets of Wall Street. They say you're the most ruthless Asian investor on Wall Street, with a brilliant track record that many people have spoken about!"
He Yuanjiang spoke seriously: "Mr. An is too kind. If I'm being honest, I don't know anyone who can compare to Chengzhi in terms of investment vision."
After saying that, he felt a bit awkward discussing the late Chengzhi's name in front of the An family, so he apologized and said, "Sorry."
However, in the eyes of the An family, Chengzhi has already been gone for twenty years, and their mental state has long accepted reality. So when He Yuanjiang mentioned her name, no one felt offended, as He Yuanjiang was also a classmate and friend of Chengzhi's.
Ye Chen planned to introduce He Yuanjiang to everyone and opened his mouth: "Uncle He, my maternal uncle is always making an appearance, you should be familiar with him, right?"
He Yuanjiang nodded: "An Kai-feng, Mr. An, I naturally recognize him, I've long been impressed!"
An Kai-feng spoke politely: "Professor He is too flattering."
After that, the two people shook hands in a polite manner.
Ye Chen then introduced He Yuanjiang to his maternal uncle, third maternal uncle, and little aunt, followed by Lee Lieutenant.
Unexpectedly, when Ye Chen was about to introduce Lee Lieutenant to He Yuanjiang, He Yuanjiang spoke up first: "This person must be the one known as the Light of China's Lee Lieutenant! I've seen your many interviews and reports, and I'm very impressed!"
Lee Lieutenant smiled humbly: "I'm just a lieutenant, far from being referred to as the Light of China. You all have achieved so much more than me."
He Yuanjiang spoke sincerely: "What nonsense is this? As an Asian, it's not difficult to make money in North America, but to gain recognition from society as a whole, that's indeed not easy. There are many subtle biases and prejudices involved, which only the Chinese people who have lived in the US for many years truly understand. You've managed to get recognized by Western mainstream society, truly worthy of being called the Light of China."
He Yuanjiang's words left everyone in the An family with a deep sense of understanding.
"The United States is actually far from being as beautiful as described by their media. Especially for minority groups living in American society, they will inevitably encounter many unnamable biases and prejudices. Black people and Korean Americans who stick together are still okay, but those who don't stick together or even enthusiastically dig their own graves within a group, it's like being in a boiling pot, plagued by internal and external struggles from all sides.
Lei Chen has never been to the United States many times since he was young, and doesn't understand much about that environment. But looking at each of these people with deep looks on their faces, he knows He Yuanjiang's words are not empty.
At this moment, only listening inside, Lei Chen's grandmother couldn't help but open the door and say, 'It's quite cold outside, why don't you hurry up and come in? Don't let my grandson and guests stand out there any longer.'
Lei Chen chuckled and called out, 'Grandma!'
His grandmother nodded her head and smiled, beckoning with her hand, 'Come in quickly, it's time for dinner.'
'Okay!'
Lei Chen responded, and the few of them finally hurried into the villa. JrNovels.com
