Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group
Chapter 1187 - 1162: The Inhuman System
"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong?" Ye Chen asked with a face full of confusion.
Song Xiaoxiao didn't answer but clung tightly to Ye Chen's arm, glaring at the two girls like a cat guarding its food.
It was as if Ye Chen was going to be snatched away by someone.
"Oh, so he already has a girlfriend." The girl sitting at the opposite table said, showing a disappointed expression.
"Yeah, and his girlfriend is really pretty. They're really a couple of handsome guy and beautiful girl." The other girl looked at Song Xiaoxiao enviously.
Though they spoke in low voices, Ye Chen heard them crystal clear.
He looked at Song Xiaoxiao beside him and couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.
Ye Chen thought to himself, "This girl is really too cute."
"Xiaoxiao, how much longer until it gets to us?" Ye Chen asked pitifully.
"Ye Chen, you know you can't rush a hot tofu," Song Xiaoxiao replied.
Hearing this, Ye Chen glanced at Song Xiaoxiao, thinking, "This girl is such a foodie, willing to wait however long it takes just for food."
If it were up to Ye Chen, he definitely wouldn't waste time on this.
This is where the perspectives of men and women differ.
Ye Chen knew that since Song Xiaoxiao said so, it was definitely not going to be anytime soon.
Just when he was feeling down, a new system notification suddenly sounded in his mind.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for receiving a new Worldwide Delivery order, would you like to accept it?"
Ye Chen was thrilled in his heart; this order came at just the right time. Waiting here for drinks is just a waste of time and life, might as well deliver an order and maybe even get a reward.
Besides, this was a Ten Thousand Realms delivery order, how could he possibly miss it?
"Accept."
For each Worldwide Delivery order, the customer always makes some special requests.
Ye Chen wondered what the request would be this time.
"System, what's the special request from the customer this time?" Ye Chen asked.
"The customer has no special requests this time, mainly just to fill the stomach," the system replied.
"Alright then."
Now Ye Chen needed to go deliver the meal. He looked at Song Xiaoxiao and said, "Xiaoxiao, I suddenly have a stomachache and want to go to the bathroom. Wait for me here, I'll be right back."
After all, when nature calls, it's something beyond control.
Song Xiaoxiao didn't doubt Ye Chen and asked very concernedly, "Ye Chen, are you alright? Do you need me to take you to the hospital?"
Ye Chen waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, that's not necessary."
After saying that, he quickly ran out of the drink shop, took the elevator to the top floor,
where there was a fast-food restaurant, and there was no need to wait too long.
Even though delivering a Worldwide Delivery wouldn't take more than five minutes, Ye Chen still sped up.
Coming to the fast-food restaurant, he ordered some octopus balls, a dish of cold noodles, and a cup of sour plum juice.
With these things in hand, Ye Chen took the elevator to the underground parking lot again.
He found a corner, looked around, and saw that the surveillance cameras couldn't capture here.
At this moment, a portal suddenly appeared in front of him.
Ye Chen walked in.
Upon reappearing, he was riding an electric scooter in a new world.
Looking around, he was surrounded by trees; Ye Chen knew he was in a forest now.
The trees were so dense that the sunlight was completely blocked, and not a single ray could get in.
The scene before him was somewhat familiar, perhaps he had been here before.
Ye Chen rode the electric scooter forward, but due to the lack of light inside, the road ahead was a bit hard to see.
"System, give me a navigation route." Ye Chen said.
Following the system's navigation, Ye Chen proceeded towards the customer, and suddenly he saw a shadow ahead, but couldn't make out what it was.
He just knew it was very large, something he had never seen in the real world, but had seen in movies.
After traveling a little longer, he got closer and closer to that enormous object.
Thanks to the system guiding Ye Chen's route, in such dim light surrounded by swamps, one careless step and he would fall in.
"Phew, that was close," Ye Chen thought to himself.
However, when he finally saw clearly what that enormous object was, he felt his heart leap out of his chest with fear.
It was a dinosaur, a carnivore.
Of course, as far as he knew, there were herbivorous dinosaurs as well, such as Triceratops, Brachiosaurus, and Stegosaurus.
Ye Chen had only seen dinosaur skeletons in natural museums; this was the first time seeing a real dinosaur, and anyone would start to panic.
The dinosaur in front of him wasn't a herbivore but a carnivorous one.
What's worse was that this dinosaur was the fiercest and most brutal among carnivores, a Tyrannosaurus.
He felt a little frustrated in his heart; did he really have to risk his life just to deliver this order?
This was way too unprofitable. Had he known, he wouldn't have accepted this order, even for a potential miraculous reward.
Nothing is more important than life itself—money, fame, and power are just worldly possessions, taken away by neither life nor death.
Ye Chen held his breath while riding the electric scooter, terrified of being discovered by the Tyrannosaurus; otherwise, it would be game over for him.
"Host, aren't you a bit too timid? You're actually afraid of a dinosaur." The system's voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen was speechless. He said to the system, "Come out, I promise I won't beat you to death."
But the system ignored him.
Ye Chen cautiously maneuvered the motorcycle, but what made him even more frustrated was that there wasn't just one Tyrannosaurus but two.
Apparently, this Tyrannosaurus had a companion, and upon hearing a dinosaur roar, Ye Chen felt like his heart was about to stop from fright.
"Oh my god, it looks like my life is really going to end here today," Ye Chen felt on the verge of tears with no tears to shed.
"System, why are you so cruel, making me deliver to such a place?"
Ye Chen felt a desire to leave; preserving his life was important.
"Host, if you fail to complete the order, you will face punishment," the system reminded.
"System, let's discuss this; pretend you don't know, and as compensation, I can give you anything you want," Ye Chen said with a smile.
"That's not possible. I'm a system that follows the rules, no bribing me. Starting the countdown, failure to complete the delivery within the specified time will also result in punishment." The system paid no heed to Ye Chen.
"System, you're too heartless," Ye Chen said.
Fearing being discovered by the Tyrannosaurus, he had stopped the motorcycle, but now the system unexpectedly started it again, driving Ye Chen forward.
"Alright then, if I must die, so be it, I'll be a hero again in eighteen years." Ye Chen said.
