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

Chapter 387: Oh my goodness, someone is chasing me?!
"When I have some free time, I feel like time flies by so fast and I feel so bored!"

Su Chen lay on the sofa in the hotel with his arms and legs spread out, like a dried salted fish.

The sun was shining brightly outside the window, and Su Chen could feel the heat even through the glass. Fortunately, the air conditioner in the suite was continuously outputting cold air, which made Su Chen feel a little cool.

Several days have passed since I had a midnight snack with Lei Jun.

The next day after having supper, Lei Jun flew back to the imperial capital with his people, saying that he was going back to prepare for the preliminary work of the mobile phone chip research center.

After all, a research center cannot be established just by talking about it. It takes a lot of time and energy just to select a site, not to mention the subsequent construction.

Besides, Lei Jun is not a hands-off boss like Su Chen. As a generalist who is good at many aspects, many research plans or company decisions require his approval.

Of course, I can’t be like Su Chen and go wherever I want to play.

As for Hou Ting, this guy also stayed in the hotel for two days and then left decisively, claiming that he was going to deal with company matters, but in fact...

Su Chen knew that this guy had gone to Hainan to escape the summer heat!
There is no way around this!

The temperature in Chengdu will be basically above 40 degrees Celsius for the next month or so. This is the expected temperature, but the actual perceived temperature is almost close to 50 degrees.

It’s impossible to go out and play in this temperature. Even at night, it won’t be a little cooler until after 10 o’clock.

Su Chen stayed in the hotel for a few days like this, only visiting his mother Chen Shufen at night, chatting with her, having a meal, and then returning to the hotel to rest.

Usually... I just lie on the sofa in the hotel, scrolling through Douyin and watching live broadcasts, or playing mobile games with Chen Fei.

It was quite leisurely and comfortable at the beginning, but after a while, Su Chen felt a little bored and thought about learning from Hou Ting and finding a cooler place to escape the heat.

"A Fei, do you have any recommendations for cooler places? Forget about places like Sanya and Dali, as we've been there before." Su Chen turned his head to look at Chen Fei, who was slumped on the sofa and playing with his phone, and asked.

But just as he finished speaking, before Chen Fei could respond, the phone on the table suddenly rang.

Seeing this, Su Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, slowly reached out and took the phone. Seeing that it was his mother Chen Shufen calling, he whispered: "Why are you calling me at this time?"

It is already around three o'clock in the afternoon, which is the time when the hot pot restaurant is closing. Logically, my mother should be taking a lunch break.

Although he was confused, Su Chen quickly answered the phone, "Hello, Mom, what's going on?"

Not sure if it was because Su Chen said something wrong or because of the hot weather, but Chen Shufen's voice was filled with anger. "What's wrong? Are you a little reluctant to call you?"

Hearing this, Su Chen suddenly felt his head swelling. He knew exactly what his mother's temper was like.

If I don't act calmly now, if I really get angry, my constant muttering will make Su Chen think that Tang Monk is still alive.

"How is that possible? Aren't you usually sleeping at this time? I think something must have happened, otherwise you wouldn't call me. Don't you think so?" Su Chen responded with a grin on his face.

That tone, is as gentle as it can be!

Hearing this, Chen Shufen snorted lightly, as if to say, "You'd better know what's best for you!"
"Your father and Su Yan came from Wudu. Su Yan also brought a young girl with him. She should be his girlfriend. I called to ask you to come and meet her."

"Huh?" Su Chen immediately sat up from the sofa, feeling something was wrong.

He finally understood why his mother was angry. It was obvious that she was saying that he was not living up to expectations.

Thinking of this, Su Chen couldn't help but scold the second brother Su Yan in his heart. Why do you have to bring her to Rongcheng when you can find a girlfriend?

This guy Su Yan came here purely to cause trouble for him.

"Why aren't you talking? Did you hear what I just told you?"

Chen Shufen's loud voice rang out again, and Su Chen's thoughts were instantly brought back to reality.

"Okay, I get it. Are you all in the store? I'll be right over after I pack up!"

After confirming the location, Su Chen hung up the phone. He originally thought about going back to his room to change into a more formal outfit, but after thinking about it, he decided not to.

If he dressed more handsomely, coupled with his handsome looks, he would inevitably steal the limelight from the second brother Su Yan.

He simply wore his current outfit of a T-shirt, shorts and slippers, called Chen Fei and headed towards Shufen Hotpot Restaurant.

……

"Damn, luckily I drove here, if I had walked here, I would have died of the heat!"

As soon as I got off the car, I was hit by a wave of heat. The temperature felt like entering an oven. Even my breathing felt hot!

Su Chen hurriedly took a few quick steps, lifted the door curtain and walked into the hot pot restaurant. Feeling the cool air from the air conditioner, he felt like he was alive again.

After taking a quick look around, I saw my mother and a few others sitting at a table near the back, chatting and laughing.

Su Chen wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead, gave Chen Fei a look, telling him to find a place to sit and play, and then strode towards them.

From a distance, Su Chen saw his mother Chen Shufen chatting with a young girl.

Su Yan sat next to the girl with a look of pride and shyness on his face!
"Dad, Mom, I'm here!" Su Chen walked over, greeted them with a smile, and sat down on the empty stool.

Su Chen's arrival interrupted the conversation between Chen Shufen and the young girl. She turned around and glared at him unhappily, "Why are you so slow?"

Hearing this, Su Chen was stunned. It only took a few minutes from receiving the call to rushing to the hot pot restaurant, but how could his mother say that it took so long?
My Master Qingtang, is there any need to be so critical of me just because I didn’t bring you a daughter-in-law?
Fortunately, Su Zhiyun at the side spoke up to help, "Xiao Chen, this is your brother Su Yan's girlfriend, Lin Xiaoyu!"

Hearing this, Su Chen nodded, and then he carefully looked at the girl sitting next to Su Yan.

Lin Xiaoyu looked to be in her early twenties, wearing simple sportswear, with long hair draped over her shoulders, delicate features, and two shallow dimples when she smiled, especially her dark eyes, which gave people a particularly energetic feeling.

"Hello, I'm Su Chen and Su Yan's brother!" Su Chen extended his hand politely.

Li Xiaoyu quickly stood up and gently shook his hand, "Hello, Brother Chen, I often hear Su Yan mention you!"

Su Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at Su Yan, his eyes showing no emotion, "Oh? What did he say about me?"

He didn't want his future sister-in-law to be a snob who was only with his brother Su Yan for money.

If this is really the case, Su Chen will have to strike back with heavy punches!

Chen Shufen and Su Zhiyun were both experienced people, so they knew what Su Chen was thinking. They both consciously kept their mouths shut and did not speak.

They admired their son Su Chen from the bottom of their hearts. If it weren't for Su Chen's help, the three brothers of the Su family would not have such a good life today.

Therefore, in such an important matter concerning marriage, Su Chen's opinion is even more important than those of the elders. Of course, all of this is based on reason and evidence. It is impossible to just come up with a reason and convince the elders.

Su Yan looked at the look his elder brother was giving him and quickly explained, "Brother, I didn't say anything bad about you, I was only praising you!"

Lin Xiaoyu covered her mouth and chuckled, "He said you are amazing. You worked hard in Shanghai for several years and founded the Shufen Hotpot brand after returning to your hometown. You are a role model in his mind."

Su Chen nodded secretly in his heart. It seemed that his younger brother was quite tight-lipped. He knew his limits and didn't say anything nonsense.

At least from Lin Xiaoyu's words, we can hear that in Su Yan's heart, Shufen Hotpot belongs to Su Chen. Without him, there would be no Shufen Hotpot today!
He smiled and waved his hand, "This kid is really good at flattering people. Don't listen to his nonsense. I am just lucky. Thanks to my mother, the boss, I am in charge. Otherwise, there would be no Shufen Hotpot today."

As Su Chen spoke, he observed the changes in Lin Xiaoyu's expression. He saw that her smile was clear and sincere, without any deliberate flattery or hypocrisy.

He should not be the kind of person with ulterior motives. Su Chen does have the ability to judge people!
But he still needed to learn more about it. Su Chen changed the subject and asked casually, "Xiao Yu, where are you from? How did you get to know Lao Er, this blockhead?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Su Yan's dark face suddenly turned red, and he lowered his head and did not dare to look at Su Chen.

When Lin Xiaoyu saw Su Yan's ostrich look, he smiled even more. "Brother Chen, I'm from Heilongjiang Province in Northeast China. Two years ago, I went to northern Xinjiang to teach. I encountered a landslide at that time. It was Su Yan who pulled me out of the landslide area. We got along very well and have been in touch ever since!"

"My teaching career ended some time ago, so I came to Wudu to find him!"

After hearing this, Su Chen couldn't help but open his mouth wide. He was wondering why Su Yan was shy. It turned out that Lin Xiaoyu was pursuing him.

But it's quite normal when you think about it. Girls from Northeast China are straightforward and direct without too many ulterior motives.

"Okay, second brother! I didn't realize that you have been holding back!" Su Chen couldn't help but joked as he looked at Su Yan, who was like an ostrich.

Chen Shufen and Su Zhiyun on the side also breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Lin Xiaoyu had passed Su Chen's test.

"Pa!" Su Zhiyun, who had been silent the whole time, slapped Su Yan on the shoulder. "Xiaoyu wasn't even afraid to laugh, why are you so shy, show your manly side."

When Su Yan heard this, he immediately raised his head and straightened his back, but there was still a hint of embarrassment on his face.

The following conversation became much more harmonious. After getting to know each other, Lin Xiaoyu had already been brought to meet his second uncle and his family in the Fog City.

Su Chen also had to sigh that Su Yan was a very courageous guy. After confirming the relationship, he gave the other party the greatest sincerity - bringing her home to meet his parents, which made it clear the position of the girl in his heart.

The purpose of their visit to Rongcheng this time was because Su Yan wanted to take Lin Xiaoyu on a spontaneous self-driving tour, and Su Zhiyun happened to be going back to Rongcheng, so he drove them over.

Otherwise, Su Yan and Lin Xiaoyu would have already started their self-driving trip.

"Where are you planning to go? Are you planning to drive all the way back to the Northeast?"

Speaking of self-driving tours, Su Chen immediately became interested. He was thinking about where to go for fun, and this was just a reason that came to his doorstep!

Su Yan shook his head slightly. "We have prepared ten days for this self-driving tour. We are going to drive along the Qinghai-Gansu Grand Loop!"

"We'll start from Chengdu, go to Lanzhou first, spend a day in Xining and Qinghai Lake, then go to Dunhuang, Jiayuguan, and Zhangye, and then return to Chengdu. Then we'll fly directly to the Northeast to meet Xiaoyu's parents and arrange our affairs!"

At the end, Su Yan held Lin Xiaoyu's hand and looked at him affectionately.

Seeing this scene, Su Chen instantly felt two creepy gazes looking at him, and he knew where these two gazes came from without thinking.

Su Chen didn't dare to move his eyes at all, and coughed twice awkwardly, "Ahem, self-driving tours are more fun and safer when there are more people!"

"How about this, I happen to be free recently, so I'll accompany you guys for a walk. Of course, you guys can have fun, just pretend I don't exist!"

"Of course, it's more fun when there are more people!" Lin Xiaoyu agreed without thinking!

Even Su Yan nodded in agreement. In his opinion, if his brother went to play together, it would be the greatest support for him and Lin Xiaoyu.

"Then it's settled. You guys go find a hotel and settle down first. I'll make some arrangements. We'll leave the day after tomorrow at the latest!"

"By the way, what car are you going to drive this time?"

Su Yan scratched his head embarrassedly, "I haven't decided yet. I originally planned to drive my dad's Volkswagen, but since my uncle is not coming to Chengdu, I'll drive the G-Class!"

"Once I'm settled, I'll go to the car rental company tomorrow and look for a suitable off-road vehicle."

Su Zhiyun immediately took out a key from his pocket and threw it into Su Yan's hand. "No need to look for it. Just drive this G-Class. It's better to drive a better car for a self-driving tour. It's more comfortable to drive."

"Take some time to go to the supermarket and buy some water, fruit, snacks, etc. and put them in the trunk. You will have something to eat to pass the time along the way."

"Ah~ Uncle, this..." Su Yan widened his eyes. He didn't expect Su Zhiyun to do this.

Just as she was thinking of saying no, she was interrupted by Su Chen, "Okay, just take it if I give it to you. If you don't consider yourself, you should also consider Xiaoyu. It's such a long route. If you drive a bad car, you will suffer a lot along the way."

"You have to remember, we go on a road trip to enjoy ourselves, not to suffer!"

Su Yan thought about it and realized that it was true. Looking at Lin Xiaoyu's expectant eyes, he simply stopped talking and put the key in his hand away.

"It's getting late. Su Yan, you should take Xiaoyu to the hotel and settle her down. Have a good rest. We'll go out for dinner together in the evening!" Seeing that everything was almost discussed, Chen Shufen started to arrange the follow-up matters directly.

"Let's go to where I live. It will be more convenient then!" Su Chen stood up and gave Su Yan a look, signaling him to follow with Lin Xiaoyu.

Su Yan and Lin Xiaoyu said a few words respectfully to Chen Shufen and Su Zhiyun respectively, and then hurriedly followed.

Just as they were about to reach the door, they saw a young man walking up to them.

Su Yan had naturally met Chen Fei before, so he was not surprised by this. When introducing him to Lin Xiaoyu, he only said that he was a friend of his eldest brother and did not say much else.

Watching the people leaving, Chen Shufen's face became a little melancholy, "Hey, I don't know when Xiaochen will be able to bring back a girlfriend like Xiaoyan did."

Su Zhiyun walked forward, put his arm around Chen Shufen's shoulders, and pulled her closer to him. "Don't think too much. Our son is so promising. Are you still worried that he won't be able to find a wife?"

"What you should be worried about is whether our son will be unfaithful and have affairs with other women. By then, as a mother-in-law, you might be too busy to handle it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Zhiyun felt a sharp pain in his waist and screamed subconsciously, "Hiss, ah! It hurts, it hurts, wife, let go!"

Chen Shufen looked at Su Zhiyun with a gloomy face, "Humph! I don't care what happens to my son, but if you dare to go out and mess around with other girls, I will destroy you!"

"Come on, follow me to the office, I must talk to you properly!" As he said that, he pulled the soft flesh on Su Zhiyun's waist and walked upstairs.

When many waiters saw this scene, they covered their mouths and laughed quietly!

"Ah~ Wife, I can walk by myself, let go!"
