Who would still be a social slave when they are so rich?

Chapter 293 Chaos is about to arise!

"A Fei~ Why don't I see my parents? Could it be that they went out to play so early in the morning?"

Su Chen walked around the entire courtyard but didn't see anyone. Finally, he found Chen Fei feeding Fat Tiger in the front yard.

Yesterday, my mother Chen Shufen and her group of friends played very late and did not come back until around eight or nine o'clock in the evening. After Su Chen found out more about them, he realized that they had visited the entire Shichahai Lake as well as the surrounding famous attractions and places to go.

We also had an authentic imperial roast duck meal outside.

While chatting in the evening, my cousin Su Yan and my second brother Chen Rui encouraged my father, my second uncle and my third uncle to go watch the flag-raising ceremony.

Su Chen poured a bucket of cold water on them at that time. After all, you can't go to raise the national flag whenever you want. You need to apply in advance. What's more, the health of their mom, dad, and second and third uncles can't support them getting up early.

Even if their application is successful and they get up at three or four in the morning, their energy is far behind that of young people. When they get there, they will probably only see the flag-raising pole and the dense sea of ​​people from afar.

In the end, the matter was left unresolved.

"Um~Sir, I'm not sure where Aunt Chen and the others went. When I got up, I saw Aunt Tang alone."

"But I heard from Aunt Tang that when Aunt Chen and the others went out, Butler Jiang also followed them." A hint of embarrassment flashed across Chen Fei's face as he spoke.

He got up relatively early, around six or seven o'clock, but who knew that Chen Shufen and the others got up even earlier than him. Later, it was Aunt Tang who told him about the situation.

I also learned from Aunt Tang that the reason why Chen Shufen and her group went out so early was to buy fresh ingredients, as they wanted to personally prepare a birthday banquet for Su Chen.

Originally, the family had stored a lot of food, all of which were top-quality ingredients airlifted from various places or countries. Unfortunately, Chen Shufen could not use any of these ingredients, so she had to buy what she needed herself.

In order to give Su Chen a surprise, Fade Chen had to pretend he knew nothing about it.

"Hmm~ Lao Jiang went out with my mom and the others?"

A hint of thought flashed across Su Chen's eyes. If his mother and the others had gone out to play, they would definitely not bring Jiang back. But they took Jiang out with them. He didn't need to think about it to know that they must need him for something.

Seeing Su Chen's thoughtful look, Fade Chen quickly changed the subject, fearing that he might discover something.

"Sir, why don't you have breakfast first? It's almost nine o'clock now. I think Aunt Chen and the others should be back soon."

Hearing about breakfast, Su Chen's stomach rumbled at the right time. He gently touched his stomach and responded with a smile: "Okay~ Ask Aunt Tang to make more. I am indeed a little hungry."

"Let's send it directly to the pavilion in the central courtyard later!" After saying that, Su Chen turned around and went back to the central courtyard. Before leaving, he did not forget to take the little white tiger away from Fat Tiger.

When Su Chen's figure disappeared from his sight, Fade Chen breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, and whispered softly: "I shouldn't be lying to you, sir."

It's not that Chen Fei was afraid that Su Chen would know that he was lying to him. It was mainly because he saw Su Chen's embarrassing behavior in front of Chen Shufen yesterday, and Su Chen came to his house to settle the score afterwards.

He let Fat Tiger get "close" to him and escaped from the tiger's mouth. Until now, he still felt a little scared in his heart, even though Su Chen was just joking with him and just wanted to scare him.

Fat Tiger's mouth was extremely big, and Chen Fei's head could easily fit in it. His sharp teeth were as thick as fingers, and his tongue was full of barbs, which really scared Chen Fei.

I had heard before how powerful Wu Song was in slaying the tiger, but I had no idea how powerful he was. Now that Chen Fei has experienced it himself, he truly understands why Wu Song's slaying of the tiger became so famous.

Fighting a tiger is really not something a human can do.

"It should be fine!" Chen Fei stood there for a while, thinking of what Su Chen said before he left, he hurried towards the kitchen.

It was almost ten o'clock when Su Chen heard bursts of noise coming from the front yard.

Looking up towards the hanging flower gate, I saw Su Zhiyun and others walking in, talking and laughing, but there was no sign of my mother Chen Shufen.

Soon Su Zhiyun and others arrived at the pavilion in the courtyard and saw Su Chen lying leisurely on a recliner, stroking the little white tiger, and various snacks and teas on the table next to him.

Su Zhiyun sat down next to them, poured a cup of tea for the others, and then said jokingly, "You guys are living a really comfortable life."

"Hehe~ Dad, you can come if you want!" Su Chen sat up and said with a smile, then changed the subject, "By the way, Dad, where is my mom? Why can't I see her?"

Su Zhiyun picked up the teacup and took a sip. The aroma of tea instantly intoxicated him. He answered Su Chen's question without thinking.

"Your mom is in the front yard. It's your birthday, so she's going to cook you a meal from her hometown!"

But just as he finished speaking, he saw the second and third brothers on the side smiling helplessly at him. Only then did Su Zhiyun react, and the relaxed expression on his face immediately froze.

He patted his mouth with his left hand and muttered, "Hey, how come I let it slip with my bad mouth!"

After saying that, he looked at Su Chen with a hint of embarrassment.

When Su Chen heard Su Zhiyun's words, his face was full of smiles, his mouth almost stretched to his ears. He quickly stood up and said, "You guys have some tea and something to eat first, I'll go to the front yard to take a look!"
He walked quickly towards the front yard, even throwing the little white tiger in his arms on the recliner.

Looking at Su Chen's departing back, the second oldest, Su Zhiqi, said jokingly, "Oh no, Xiao Chen knows. The eldest sister-in-law's surprise is gone."

"If my sister-in-law knew about this, do you think you would be beaten?"

Hearing this, not only the third brother Su Zhixin, but even Su Yan and Chen Rui who were sitting on the side turned their eyes to Su Zhiyun.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Su Zhiyun raised his head and said very firmly, "Being beaten? How is that possible? Don't you see my position at home? How dare Chen Shufen beat me?"

No one responded to the conversation. They all gave Su Zhiyun a meaningful smile in tacit understanding, as if everyone knew what he said.

"Ahem~" Seeing everyone's expressions, Su Zhiyun coughed twice awkwardly, picked up the teacup and started drinking, pretending to be calm and composed.

At this time, Su Chen had already arrived at the kitchen in the front yard and stood at the kitchen door watching Chen Shufen who was busy inside.

I was also chatting with Aunt Tang. Perhaps because we are both chefs and middle-aged women, we got along very well.

"Sir~Why are you here!" When Aunt Tang turned around to get the ingredients, she saw Su Chen standing at the door out of the corner of her eye, and she was completely stunned.

Upon hearing Aunt Tang's words, Chen Shufen, who was busy slicing the fish, paused and quickly turned around to look at the door.

"Xiao Xiaochen, why are you in the kitchen!" Chen Shufen felt inexplicably nervous, as if she was caught in the act.

"Hehe~ I'm here to see what kind of birthday dinner my mom is preparing for me!" Su Chen said with a grin and a big laugh.

Hearing this, Chen Shufen's face showed a hint of depression, "I was thinking of giving you a surprise, but I didn't expect you to know so soon."

"Accident~purely an accident. I haven't eaten the food cooked by you, mom, for a long time. I was really looking forward to it!" Su Chen sniffed towards the kitchen and could already smell the aroma of some stew.

"Got it. I promise you'll eat enough today!" Chen Shufen looked at Su Chen with a doting look on her face. "Okay~ Don't stay here and delay our cooking. Just wait and eat!"

As he said that, he waved at Su Chen, signaling him to leave quickly.

Seeing this, Su Chen shrugged helplessly and turned away.

But just after taking a few steps, the doorbell rang. Su Chen paused, looked towards the door with a puzzled look and muttered, "Who could it be at this time?"

He didn't think much about it and walked straight to the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw three or four people standing outside, led by Jiang Hui.

"Uh~Sir, why are you the one who opened the door!" Jiang Hui said in surprise. At this time, Fade Chen finally arrived. Seeing Su Chen, Jiang Hui, and the people behind him who were helping to carry the cake standing at the door, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

There was only one thought in my mind: It’s over!

When Jiang Hui saw Chen Fei who was late, he glared at him unhappily. The surprise he had prepared was directly seen by Su Chen, the person involved. How could he be surprised at all?

Su Chen naturally noticed the changes in their expressions and said jokingly with a smile: "This is the cake prepared for me. It looks quite exquisite!"

Su Chen looked at the people working on the cake behind. They were all wearing the same uniform. There was only a simple black swan logo on the black uniform.

"Don't stand here, move in. By the way, A Fei, pay attention to Fat Tiger and don't let it bark!" After Su Chen finished speaking, he ignored Chen Fei's depressed expression and walked towards the courtyard.

After Su Chen walked away, Jiang Hui looked at Fade Chen and asked, "Why did you come out so late? I told you in advance."

Fade Chen scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I'm just setting up the birthday scene. I came out as soon as you sent the message. Who knew that the gentleman was in the front yard?"

Jiang Hui opened his mouth, but in the end he just sighed, "Alright, sir, you know it, so let's send the cake in first!"

Fade Chen nodded and turned to walk in. He also had to comfort Fat Tiger so that the person who delivered the cake would not be scared when he came in.

At the same time, Jiang Hui turned around and looked at the staff of the cake shop, and specifically instructed them: "Don't be surprised no matter what you see when you go in, especially don't let anything unexpected happen to the cakes in your hands!"

Several staff members nodded to show that they understood. To be able to live by the Shichahai Lake, and in a top-notch courtyard house, it goes without saying that such a person must be either rich or noble.

Even though they had been mentally prepared, they were still frightened when they walked into the courtyard and saw Fat Tiger lying on the ground. Fortunately, they had been warned beforehand, so they were only frightened to the point of being unable to walk, and nothing unexpected happened to the cake.

Under Jiang Hui's leadership, the three-layer cake was moved to the restaurant and then several people were sent out.

When they left the courtyard, they ran so fast that they disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Hui couldn't help but laugh.

It was not until around noon that Fade Chen came to the pavilion to announce that it was time to eat, and then everyone walked towards the restaurant.

As soon as I walked to the door of the restaurant, I saw Jiang Hui changed into a butler's tuxedo, and when he saw Su Chen and others coming, he opened the door of the restaurant very ceremonially.

As soon as we entered, we found that the atmosphere inside was very nice. Various colorful balloons and flowers made the restaurant look particularly beautiful. Even the words "Happy Birthday" were specially written on the wall with golden balloons!
There were also various steaming delicacies on the table. Su Chen took a look and found that they were all his favorites.

"Sorry for your trouble!" Su Chen frowned and said to the people behind him with emotion.

This was the first time he celebrated his birthday with his family in such a formal way. His emotions instantly surged in his heart. If it weren't for his strong self-control, he would have been moved to tears.

"Everyone, please stop standing. The food will get cold and won't taste good!" Su Chen then asked everyone to sit down.

As the host of today, Su Chen reluctantly sat in the main seat. He originally wanted to let his mom or dad sit there, but he didn't expect them to directly refuse, and even said in a nice way: "The birthday boy is the most important today!"

After filling the wine glass in his hand, Su Chen stood up and scanned everyone's body before speaking: "Today is the happiest day of my life. This is the first time I have celebrated my birthday like this since I was a child. Thank you all for your efforts!"

Hearing this, everyone stood up with their glasses in hand and shouted in unison: "Happy birthday!"

"Happy birthday!" Su Chen smiled, raised his glass and responded loudly.

While Su Chen was still celebrating his birthday, Chen Fan, who was far away in Africa, was extremely busy.

The reason, of course, is the civil unrest in Mozambique.

Before, whether it was Chen Fan, Raymond or even Su Chen, they all thought that it would take some time for the plantation to be affected, but what they never expected was that in just one day, someone had already set their sights on the plantation.

The reason why Chen Fan discovered this was because he had previously been arranged to patrol the plantation and monitor the abnormalities of those black workers.

The black employees of the plantation were basically recruited from nearby villages and cities. When the patrol members were patrolling at night, they accidentally discovered that some black people had secretly run out and contacted people outside.

After discovering this matter, he immediately reported the information to Chen Fan.

After Chen Fan's experience in Southeast Asia, he became more decisive in his actions. He immediately arranged for the patrol team to capture the man. After some interrogation, he learned that several surrounding villages had set their sights on the plantation.

The villagers knew that the crops on the plantations were about to be harvested, and they all wanted to take advantage of the civil unrest in Mozambique to make a fortune.

So several villages united together, and after some discussion, they specially looked for an insider in the park. In addition to understanding the internal situation of the plantation, they also thought of achieving internal and external cooperation.

After all, there are more than a hundred indigenous black people in the plantation. If these people can be incited, it will be much easier for them to plunder the plantation.

But no one expected that the insider would be discovered by the patrol team the first time he ventured out to meet the villagers.

"This is the situation now. Does anyone have anything else to say?"

The conference room was already filled with smoke. After Chen Fan threw the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray, he looked at everyone and asked.

Everyone looked at each other, and finally the answer was two words, "No!"

Everyone knows that within the next two days, people from nearby villages will begin to test the plantation. If they don't work together now, it will be difficult to escape alive, let alone defend the plantation.

"Since no one wants to say anything, let's take action. All weapons are dispatched and we are ready to fight at any time!"

At this point, Chen Fan's eyes flashed with a fierce look, and his tone became a little cold, "If they dare to invade the plantation, this battle will not end until they die!"

"Also, the patrol team is proceeding according to the predetermined plan. Anyone who dares to have bad intentions will be killed immediately!"

Chen Fan's words were like a death sentence for the traitor!

"Clatter~" There was a sound of chairs being moved, and all the managers and team leaders present stood up and shouted in unison: "Yes!"

After everyone left the meeting room, Chen Fan took the cigarette from the table and lit another one.

Gao Zhong looked at Chen Fan's slightly red eyes, hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Brother Fan, how about we call each other!"

Chen Fan naturally knew what Gao Zhong meant by making a phone call. When he left Singapore, his cousin gave him a phone number and specifically told him not to make the call without permission unless it was a matter of life and death.

After taking two puffs, Chen Fan said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Lao Gao, to be honest, I didn't want to make that call!"

"We ran from China to Malaysia and then to Singapore, and saw too much ugliness in human nature and life and death. If we put our fate in the hands of others, we will never be able to stand up in this life!"

"Also, I also want to prove to my cousin that I, Chen Fan, am not a waste!"

Gao Zhong looked at Chen Fan in shock. He clearly saw two words in Chen Fan's eyes, "I want to dominate this land!"

After a long silence, Gao Zhong took the cigarette in front of Chen Fan, lit one for himself, and after puffing on the smoke, he said with a firm face: "From now on, I will give these 100 pounds to you!"

Seeing that his good brother trusted him so unconditionally, Chen Fan laughed out loud, "Hahaha~ Lao Gao, just wait and see, I, Chen Fan, will not let you down!"

Two strong and powerful hands were tightly clasped together!
