King of Kings, start with a perfect record and strive for the top spot.

Saying you treat me like I'm invisible? You've been calling me Xiao Dong, how could I treat you like I'm invisible?

Then, recalling how his girlfriend had asked him to help Ye Ge find a job, Dong Liang immediately realized that Ye Ge had been ostracized by others before he arrived.

When those around them heard Ye Lan call Zheng Xueling's boyfriend "Xiao Dong," they all looked puzzled.

The nickname "Little Dong" is a bit too intimate, isn't it?

Moreover, it sounds more like a superior addressing a subordinate.

Dong Liang forced an awkward smile. "Brother Ye, what are you saying? How could I possibly treat you like you're invisible?"

"Waiter, two more dishes, please. Bring me one of your biggest king crabs and one of your biggest Boston lobsters. No, bring me two."

"And while you're at it, open a bottle of 82 Lafite that I kept at the counter."

The waiter nodded and noted it down, then turned to make the arrangements.

The room was silent.

Everyone looked at Ye Lan with surprise.

They couldn't understand what abilities this person, who was about their age, possessed that made a rich second-generation heir value him so much.

Ye Lan thought Dong Liang was quite sensible.

They even knew how to help me out of that predicament.

"Xiao Dong, I'm sorry to have troubled you to spend money." Ye Lan continued eating, her upturned lips unable to be suppressed.

He originally disdained showing off, but there were always people who gave him the opportunity to do so.

It's hard not to pretend.

Xu Zhiqiang gave a thumbs-up under the table.

"Brother Ye, your bragging skills are truly masterful."

"What do you mean by showing off? I don't know I'm showing off."

"Wasn't it you who asked Dong Liang to help you show off?"

"I didn't even know he was Zheng Xueling's boyfriend, how can I get him to cooperate with me?"

Ye Lan couldn't help but marvel at how small the world was; even this could form a closed loop.

Zheng Xueling also realized that the relationship between the two was not simple, and looked up to ask, "Do you two know each other?"

"I know him." Dong Liang nodded seriously.

"So you're not angry when he calls you Xiao Dong? He's just a game streamer." Zheng Xueling got angry.

She originally intended to use her boyfriend's status to give Ye Lan a warning.

But Ye Lan turned the tables on him.

Instead, it made her lose face.

Dong Liang blinked in confusion, "A game streamer?"

He had indeed heard from his cousin that Ye Lan used to be a game streamer.

But that was half a year ago.

Is your girlfriend's information database completely outdated?

"He stopped being a game streamer six months ago and now runs a milk tea shop," Dong Liang told him in a low voice.

Zheng Xueling scoffed, "A milk tea shop only costs a few hundred thousand yuan, do you really need to be so cautious?"

"Not just one, but 13,973!"

This is the current number of branches for Xueyao Chinese Medicine Milk Tea.

Zheng Xueling stared in disbelief. Although she didn't understand what so many branches meant, she knew in her heart.

Even if a store only makes a profit of one yuan, Ye Lan can still earn more than ten thousand yuan a day.

The actual number is likely to be even more staggering than that.

No wonder Dong Liang, a second-generation rich kid, was so cautious in front of Ye Lan; it turns out this guy is a self-made millionaire!

I broke up with him only a year ago, how did he become like this?

Zheng Xueling looked at the man in the corner who was engrossed in eating, her eyes filled with regret.

If only I hadn't been so pretentious back then.

Has she now become the revered Mrs. Ye?

Of course, it's a pity there are no "what ifs".

After the little incident, the atmosphere at the dinner table became awkward.

Even though Dong Liang was paying for the meal, most people couldn't help but gather around Ye Lan.

Several girls subtly inquired whether Ye Lan was single.

And he began to vigorously promote himself.

Ye Lan was quite popular in her class back then. Not only was she good at games, but she was also very beautiful, and many girls secretly admired her.

Ye Lan was also very troubled because she received too many love letters.

Later, he chose to be with Zheng Xueling, using her as a shield.

It was this hasty decision that led Ye Lan to a deeper understanding of love later on.

He no longer chooses to compromise, nor does he impulsively accept someone's confession. Instead, he makes rational analyses and judgments after the passion fades.

Frequent chatting can lead to misjudgments, causing people to mistakenly believe that it is love.

In reality, they were just two lonely people seeking comfort and warmth from each other.

Xu Zhiqiang also shares this problem.

Huang Yuting seemed to have lost her mind and switched seats with the boy next to Xu Zhiqiang.

She would then intentionally or unintentionally start talking about her ex-boyfriend's various shortcomings, implying that she was single.

Xu Zhiqiang, imitating Ye Lan, buried his head in his food and ignored her completely.

Huang Yuting's idea was actually very simple.

Since Ye Lan is so capable, Xu Zhiqiang, as her best friend, will naturally have a good life.

Huang Yuting understood that her looks were not good enough for Ye Lan.

So they decided to target the people around him.

As the saying goes, "When one person attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven." Ye Lan is so rich, so Xu Zhiqiang, as his best friend, must be living a life of comfort and ease.

It must be said that Huang Yuting's idea is indeed quite good.

If it were Xu Zhiqiang a few months ago, he would definitely have fallen for so-called "love" again.

Unfortunately, after several months of Wang Qianqian's "training,"

In addition, he is a romantic who is quite loyal in love.

Xu Zhiqiang is unlikely to fall in love with someone else.

However, Huang Yuting was indeed a mortal, and even Ye Lan, who was standing next to her, found it hard to bear.

He turned his head and revealed some shocking news.

"Zhiqiang, when are you and Wang Qianqian planning to get married?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Huang Yuting's eyes widened. She, who had been chattering away just moments before, was now speechless.

She never thought of it.

In just six months, Xu Zhiqiang has found a girlfriend.

And they've already reached the point of discussing marriage!

Huang Yuting felt extremely remorseful for missing out on a happy life because of her pursuit of higher ranks.

Xu Zhiqiang understood that Ye Lan was trying to help him out of an awkward situation, and said with a smile, "It'll probably be around October. When are you and your partner getting married?"

He had, of course, received Ye Lan's wedding invitation long ago.

I'm asking this now to help him out of that predicament.

Ye Lan smiled and dropped a bombshell: "On July 9th, I'll be holding my wedding at the Star River Auditorium. I hope everyone can come and support me."

This statement has left everyone confused.

Is the gap between people of the same age really that big?

Some people are still studying.

Some people are successful in their careers.

Some people get married and start a family.

Some women dedicate themselves to their husbands and raise their children.

As Ye Lan's biggest fan, Dong Liang was naturally the first to show his support, saying, "Don't worry, Brother Ye, I'll definitely prepare a super big gift for you!"
