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

Chapter 373: Encounter at the airport!

"The vast horizon is my love, and the flowers are blooming at the foot of the rolling green hills..."

Hearing the ringing sound from the phone, Su Chen's mouth twitched slightly.

This ringtone...hmm~very Chen Shufen!
The phone rang for 20 seconds before Chen Shufen answered it. The first thing she heard was a burst of noise...

"Boss, table number ten, another serving of tripe!"

"Give me another bottle of Daweiyi. It's going to be frozen. I need to drink frozen drinks to feel comfortable in this cold weather!"

Su Chen could still hear Chen Shufen responding to the customers and couldn't help but mutter, "I didn't expect the business to be so hot that my mom even came to help!"

As the boss, Chen Shufen should have been sitting at the counter helping to collect money, or staying in the office. Why would she need to do it herself? After all, she is the owner of dozens of hotpot chain restaurants.

Before Su Chen could think about it, he found that the noisy sounds gradually became less and less, and finally it became completely quiet. He knew without thinking that his mother had found a quiet place.

"Son, why did you think of calling mom? Did you find a daughter-in-law and call to tell me the good news?" Chen Shufen's voice came from the phone with a bit of joy.

Even though Su Chen was over the phone, he felt like his mother was urging him to get married, and he couldn't help but shiver.

"What daughter-in-law? I called just to ask where you are, mom? Are you in the Fog City or Chengdu? I plan to come back and stay for a few days."

Naturally, Su Chen didn't want to dwell too much on the matter of his wife, so he simply changed the subject.

Chen Shufen, who was on the other end of the phone, raised her voice several notches higher with excitement when she heard that Su Chen was coming back!
"Really?"

"Your father and I are all in Chengdu. We have opened too many branches at once and we are very busy. It's a good opportunity for you to come back and help us."

"Ah?" Su Chen felt sick all over. When he first heard his mother Chen Shufen's excited voice, he thought she missed him very much, but he didn't expect that she wanted him to go back and do some manual labor.

For a moment, Su Chen didn't want to go back. In his mind, he was still thinking whether he should say that his signal was bad and he didn't hear clearly, and then find another excuse to get away with it.

But in the end, Su Chen didn't say these words. He smacked his lips and responded, "Okay, I got it. Mom, send me the location of Green Bubble later. When I get to Rongcheng, I will come directly to find you!"

After Su Chen's affirmative answer, Chen Shufen didn't waste any time and said, "Let's not talk about it for now. The store is very busy. We'll talk when you come back," and hung up the phone.

Looking at the hung up phone in his hand, Su Chen shook his head helplessly, "What kind of thing is this?"

When he threw the phone aside, he found that Chen Fei had packed his luggage at some point and was standing aside, covering his mouth, trying hard not to laugh out loud.

Su Chen glared at Fade Chen unhappily. Just as he was about to say something to him, something suddenly occurred to him, so he asked, "A Fei, if I remember correctly, your hometown is in the northwest, right?"

Hearing the question, Fade Chen was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses and quickly responded: "Yes, it's in a county under Tianshui, not far from Shaanxi."

Upon hearing this, Su Chen nodded thoughtfully and kept the place Tianshui in mind. He did not continue the topic.

"Have you packed your things? Let's go straight to the airport. We can have lunch at the airport and have authentic Fog City hotpot in the evening!"

Speaking of hot pot, Su Chen felt his mouth inexplicably salivating, as if there was a hot pot right in front of him.

Chen Fei was no exception. He had been to the Fog City several times with Su Chen before. After eating authentic Fog City hotpot, he always felt that something was missing when eating hotpot in other places.

Originally, Su Chen and his friends were going to the airport, and they were thinking of asking Pei Rang to arrange someone to take them there, so that they could avoid driving there themselves and have the car stay at the airport for a while.

But Su Chen wanted to know whether Pei Rang was busy with the matter he had asked him to do, so he thought about not disturbing him. At worst, he could leave the car keys at the airport and ask someone from the company to drive it back later.

It was already 12:30 noon when they arrived at the airport. After buying first-class tickets to the capital, the two found a KFC and sat down, ready to eat something and kill time while waiting for the plane.

……

In KFC, Su Chen was holding a Coke in one hand and leisurely scrolling through Douyin with the other. Just as he saw an interesting video, a voice sounded beside him.

"You...you are Su Chen?"

Hearing someone calling his name, Su Chen looked up and saw a young man in his twenties, slightly plump, about 1.75 meters tall, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses and holding several bags in his hands, which were obviously KFC takeout.

He stared at the young man who was speaking, trying hard to find the corresponding person in his mind. Unfortunately, Su Chen thought for a long time but couldn't figure out who this person was.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry that I couldn't tell who you were for a moment?" Su Chen asked, tilting his head slightly.

"I am Li Hao, my old high school classmate and right protector. Do you still remember me?"

Li Hao didn't feel angry at all that Su Chen didn't recognize him. After all, they hadn't seen each other for so many years, and it was normal that he didn't remember him for a while.

"Right Protector, Li Hao?" Hearing this name, Su Chen gradually remembered it in his mind, not because of the name Li Hao, but because of the Right Protector.

Generally, the seats on both sides of the desk are called "left and right protectors" and are VIP seats in the class. Basically, they are students who are a bit talkative but good at studying.

Teachers basically arrange them here to correct their habit of talking in class.

In Su Chen's memory, the right protector Li Hao should be a thin guy, and he was also one of the few in their class who was admitted to a second-tier university.

I can't connect her with the slightly fat man with glasses in front of me.

Time is really a butcher's knife.

"Old classmate, I didn't expect to meet you here. It's really fate. Come sit down and chat!"

It is definitely impossible to say that Su Chen and Li Hao have a good relationship, but it is not easy to meet in the Magic City, a metropolis with a population of tens of millions.

Li Hao was also a little moved when he heard this. Just as he was about to sit down, he heard an impatient voice not far away, "Li Hao, what are you dawdling for? Hurry up and bring the food over. Do you want to starve us to death?"

Hearing this voice, the smile on Li Hao's face froze instantly. He smiled awkwardly at Su Chen and whispered, "Sorry, old classmate, our manager is calling me. This is my business card. You can add the phone number on it to the green bubble and contact me later."

Su Chen looked in the direction of the voice and saw four people sitting not far away, three women and one man. The middle-aged man who called Li Hao just now was looking at this side with an impatient look on his face.

He picked up Li Hao's business card from the table, glanced at it and nodded to show his understanding, "It's okay, you go and do your work first, I'll add you on Green Bubble to chat later."

Li Hao saw Su Chen put away his business card, and a smile appeared on his face. He walked over with his things. He could vaguely hear the scolding of the middle-aged man, "What a waste. You took so long to buy a hamburger and a Coke." "Old classmate? Looking at you, I know without thinking that your old classmate is probably the same as you, also a useless thing."

Hearing this, Su Chen frowned slightly, looking at the middle-aged man's back and Li Hao who was bending over and saying sorry, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

If you want to scold Li Hao, just scold Li Hao. Why do you even drag him into this? It seems that Su Chen is really made of clay.

At this time, Fade Chen also came to Su Chen's side and whispered, "Boss, that Mediterranean guy has a dirty mouth. Do you want me to deal with him?"

Su Chen shook his head and said nothing, just looking at the business card in his hand that Li Hao gave him. On it was written the words Dingsheng Catering Company.

"Take some time to send a message to Xue Yi and ask him to investigate the situation of this company!" Su Chen handed the business card in his hand to Chen Fei.

After Chen Fei took it, he took a photo with his mobile phone, then put the business card into his wallet and kept it safely.

After waiting for half an hour, the airport broadcast sounded the boarding reminder, and the flight from Modu to Rongcheng began to check tickets. Su Chen and the others then stood up and walked towards the boarding gate.

Interestingly, Su Chen discovered that Li Hao and his group also stood up and walked in the same direction.

When they arrived at the ticket gate, Li Hao, who had arrived earlier, saw Su Chen and the others coming here as well. A smile immediately broke out on his face. Just as he was about to say hello, he saw Su Chen and the others walking straight in under the guidance of airport staff.

Seeing this scene, Li Hao naturally understood that the worst ticket for Su Chen and his friends was business class. Thinking of his own economy class, he smiled bitterly and retracted his gaze.

On the other side, as Su Chen and the others walked to the boarding gate, the flight attendant of this flight greeted them warmly: "Welcome, sir, this way please!"

The attitude was as good as it could be, and even the voice had a bit of a clip tone.

When Su Chen sat in the independent first-class cabin, Fade Chen asked curiously, "Boss, why didn't you say hello to your old classmate at the ticket gate just now, and show off your first-class cabin status to make that Mediterranean guy wary."

Hearing this, Su Chen couldn't help but laugh.

"If you want to show off and slap someone in the face, just say so. They should still be checking tickets now. It should still be in time if you go now!"

Su Chen mercilessly exposed Chen Fei's little thoughts. He was just being cautious and wanted to show that he was sitting in first class.

"Uh..." Chen Fei scratched his head embarrassedly when he realized that his little trick was exposed.

"You, you just want to slap that Mediterranean guy in the face, and then what?"

"My old classmate realized the gap between himself and me because of the manager's derogatory PUA. He lost his confidence and self-esteem. If you really do what you said, it will hurt him instead."

"If it were you, what would you think when you found out that your old classmate is worth over 100 million, while you are still struggling to survive?"

Chen Fei nodded thoughtfully after hearing this, and began to think seriously about what Su Chen said.

Seeing that Fade Chen was lost in thought, Su Chen stopped talking, took off his shoes, put on comfortable slippers, lay leisurely on the sofa, took out his cell phone and sent a message.

Three hours later, the plane slowly landed at Chengdu's Shuangliu Airport. As soon as he left the terminal, Su Chen felt the sultry air blowing in his face, which was completely different from the dry heat in the Magic City.

Even though it was already past four in the afternoon, the heat made even my breathing feel a little rapid.

"I didn't expect the weather in Chengdu to be so hot!"

Chen Fei felt as if he had walked into a steamer. Even in his hometown on the Loess Plateau, he had never had such a feeling.

After fanning himself a little, Fade Chen asked, "Boss, the weather is too hot. Please go to the terminal and take a rest. You can come out after I call a car."

"Hahaha, no need!"

Su Chen looked at a Bentley that was driving towards them not far away, and pursed his lips and said, "Isn't this car coming?"

The car soon stopped in front of them, the window rolled down, and a familiar face appeared in front of them.

"Mr. Su, get in the car quickly. The weather is extremely hot today!" The person who came was none other than Hou Ting. The message Su Chen sent on the plane was to him.

Fade Chen quickly opened the back door and waited for Su Chen to get in before he put the luggage into the trunk and then opened the passenger door and got in.

"Mr. Su, would you like to come to my place or somewhere else?" Hou Ting asked after the car drove out of the airport.

Su Chen glanced at the location on his phone and said, "Let's go to Shufen Hotpot on Chunxi Road first and check out my mother's store."

Hou Ting nodded to show that he understood, and asked the driver to change the route to Chunxi Road. After giving the instructions, he started chatting with Su Chen.

He also wanted to know whether Su Chen came to Rongcheng for some important matter or just to see his mother.

If anything happens, as a local resident of Chengdu, he should do his best to help.

That’s right, it’s just a small bit of my strength!
Hou Ting knew Su Chen's strength. What else could he do with his weak arms and legs?

When he learned that Su Chen came to Rongcheng to visit his mother, travel around and experience the delicacies of Shudu, he had already started thinking about how to give Su Chen a surprise.

It was only half an hour's drive from Shuangliu Airport to Chunxi Road. When they arrived at Shufen Hotpot, it was exactly five o'clock in the afternoon.

"What's going on? There are too many people here. They come to eat hotpot in such a hot weather. I don't know what these people are thinking!" Chen Fei was quite shocked when he saw the dozen or so people queuing in front of Shufen Hotpot.

When Su Chen saw this scene, he was hesitant about whether to get out of the car. But when he saw his mother Chen Shufen standing at the door greeting customers, he opened the car door and got out without any hesitation.

"I'll go in first. I may have to help my mother for a while. I'll call you in the evening and we can go out for a midnight snack together." After saying that, he strode towards the store without waiting for Hou Ting to reply.

"Number 107 is those guys, the tables are out, table number 7, go straight to it!"

"There's iced sour plum soup at the door, if you want some, come pick it up!"

After walking a few steps, Su Chen heard Chen Shufen's shouting, still as loud as before, but with a hint of fatigue in her voice.
