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

"Sorrow fills the sky~"

"When the rain falls, I remember to hold up the bridge."

"I just miss you forever!"

Listening to Li Jian's ethereal voice on the car stereo, accompanied by the rolling Qilian Mountains and the vast Hexi Corridor, Su Chen felt particularly comfortable.

Before he could enjoy it too much, the song came to an abrupt end, making Su Chen feel as if he was halfway through taking a dump when the toilet door suddenly opened and someone rushed in.

"Huh? Why is this song gone? Did you cut it, Ah Fei?" Su Chen frowned slightly.

Chen Fei, who was concentrating on driving, felt a chill when he heard this. He quickly looked at the playback record and immediately felt relieved.

He quickly explained, "Boss, I just checked and the song I just listened to only has these few lines. How about I look online to see if there is a complete song?"

"It's okay. Just focus on driving. I'll look for the song. I think it's sung by Li Jian!" Su Chen glanced at the car screen, then took out his cell phone and started searching on Douyin.

Soon, related searches popped up on Douyin. Su Chen found a video related to Li Jian and clicked on it. Music immediately started playing. It was the song that Su Chen had just listened to.

The music in the video only played for about ten seconds, and just like the previous car music, it only played a few sentences and then there was no follow-up.

He quickly opened it and started reading the comments. After reading a few comments, Su Chen's mouth twitched slightly.

He originally thought that this was a cover of the song by Li Jian, but what he never expected was that this piece of music was created by fans using AI and integrating Li Jian's voice.

Su Chen smiled helplessly and said to himself: "The current AI technology is quite powerful. It can even imitate Li Jian's voice so well!"

"But this song is really good. How about we ask Li Jian to cover this song after we return to the capital from our self-driving tour?"

Just as Su Chen was thinking, his cell phone rang. He looked down and found that it was a message from Reba, and it was a voice message.

"Wow~ Not bad, you even know how to send voice messages." Su Chen showed a playful smile on his face. As for asking Li Jian to cover the song, he just put it out of his mind.

Clicking on the voice bar, Reba's shy voice suddenly rang out in the car, "So... what kind of thanks does Mr. Su want?"

The voice was soft with a hint of playfulness, which made Su Chen's heart warm and the scene of that night emerged in his mind.

Chen Fei, who was driving, was trying hard to control the smile on his face, the corners of his mouth were harder to suppress than AK.

Su Chen naturally noticed Chen Fei's strangeness and glared at him unhappily, "Drive carefully!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Chen Fei held back his laughter and pretended to stare at the road ahead seriously.

Su Chen naturally knew that these words were just words. Could it be that Chen Fei could really hold it back? If it were him, he would have laughed out loud a long time ago.

Su Chen coughed lightly to moisten his throat, then pressed the voice button and said softly: "When I finish the things I have at hand, you... come and cook me a meal."

At the same time, in the apartment in Magic City, Reba rolled around on the bed holding her cell phone, her cheeks hot. She didn't expect Su Chen to make such a simple request.

Or is the cooking Su Chen mentioned... not that kind of cooking?
"Just... that's it?" Reba muttered softly, her finger hesitated on the screen for a while, and finally sent another voice message, "Then ~ Mr. Su, when will you return to Shanghai? I have to prepare in advance!"

After sending this message, her face turned as red as a monkey's butt. She buried her whole face in the quilt, and her heart felt like it was about to burst.

Su Chen and his team had just entered the Wushaoling Tunnel Group at this time, and the signal was intermittent. It took a long time before they received the message from Reba.

Listening to Reba's expectant voice, Su Chen's mouth corners unconsciously raised. Just as he was about to reply, the car drove into a tunnel and the signal immediately became bad. The message on the phone was transferred for a long time but was not sent.

"Oh, really!" Su Chen sighed helplessly and turned his head to look out the window. The light in the tunnel flickered and reflected on his profile, outlining a deep contour.

After more than 20 minutes, the car finally drove out of the tunnel. The cell phone signal was instantly full. Su Chen quickly edited a voice message, "Wait for my call then. I will tell you in advance, but..."

Su Chen deliberately dragged out the words, with a somewhat teasing tone, "Are your cooking skills good enough? Don't blow up the kitchen!"

After sending this message, he seemed to be able to imagine Reba's angry look on the other end of the phone, and his mood suddenly became cheerful.

Reba replied to the message very quickly, but it was not the voice message that Su Chen expected, but a video message.

In the video, Reba held a four-finger-wide kitchen knife in her right hand, held a potato with her left hand, and started cutting it skillfully.

At first, Su Chen thought she would cut into strips to show him her knife skills, but what happened... Reba just cut into pieces, and... only one potato was cut, and the video ended!

Just when Su Chen was wondering whether this was a demonstration of her ability to cook or her good cooking skills, a voice message came in.

"Hehe, my cooking skills are great. I'll make you an authentic frontier big plate chicken!"

Hearing Reba's confident tone, Su Chen naturally did not discourage her enthusiasm and replied casually, "Okay, you should practice more now, so that you won't make excuses when you make a fool of yourself!"

Reba sent Su Chen a "hard work" emoticon and said nothing else. It seemed that she was busy reviewing how to make big plate chicken.

At this time, Chen Fei's exclamation brought Su Chen back to his senses.

"Boss, look!"

Su Chen raised his head and looked in the direction of Chen Fei's finger, only to see the Qilian Mountains appear in front of him. On the towering mountains in the distance, the snow was capped and looked golden under the sunlight.

Under the blue sky, the undulating mountains, the winding rivers at the foot of the mountains and the lush green grasslands echo each other, giving people a relaxed and pleasant feeling.

"It is worthy of being the starting point of the Hexi Corridor. The scenery here is really beautiful!" Su Chen was indeed shocked by the beautiful scenery before him.

I quickly took out my cell phone and took a few photos outside the window, as a testimony to this self-driving tour.

……

"Hiss~hiss! Potato Potato, this is Sweet Potato, please answer if you hear me!" The intercom placed in the armrest box suddenly rang, instantly breaking the wonderful atmosphere.

Hearing about potatoes and sweet potatoes, the corners of Su Chen's mouth twitched slightly. If Su Yan hadn't been so shameless as to insist on doing this when they were in the service area, claiming that it would liven up the atmosphere, he would never have played this joke.

Although he complained, Su Chen did not stop his actions at all. He knew that Su Yan used the walkie-talkie to talk to him, and something must have happened ahead, otherwise he would not have used the walkie-talkie.

Picking up the intercom, Su Chen pressed the call button: "Sweet Potato Sweet Potato, this is Potato, is there anything wrong up ahead?"

"Brother, a strong wind has just started blowing near Wuwei after leaving the remnant of the Qilian Mountains. The Internet also said that there might be a sandstorm. Do you think we should go to the service area to rest?" Su Yan's serious voice came from the other end of the walkie-talkie.

Su Chen didn't quite understand the strong wind, but he had heard of the sandstorm.

"A sandstorm? That's impossible. I see green mountains and clear waters, and there's no sand around..."

Before Su Chen could finish his words, their car passed through the foothills of the Qilian Mountains, and the scenery in front of them suddenly changed.

The green mountains and clear waters turned into a green oasis on the plain. At the same time, a strong wind blew from the side of the car, and the body of the Mercedes-Benz G was shaken slightly.

Su Chen was so frightened by this sudden incident that his hands trembled and the walkie-talkie fell at his feet. He quickly grabbed the fixed handrail on the door frame and felt relieved.

If they hadn't been going so fast, and the fact that the car body was heavier than the average Mercedes-Benz G-Class, there might have been some accidents.

Su Yan, who was on the other end of the intercom, saw that the call was disconnected before Su Chen had finished speaking. He was startled and quickly picked up the intercom, shouting, "Brother, brother, can you hear me? Are you okay?" Chen Fei also slowed down the car at this time. The strong wind still caused the car to shake slightly.

Su Chen calmed down and quickly picked up the intercom at his feet. He pressed the call button and replied, "It's okay. I just felt the strong wind you mentioned."

When Su Yan heard Su Chen's voice again, he immediately felt relieved.

Before he could say anything, Su Chen's voice rang out again, "Su Yan, just do as you said, take a short break at the Wuwei service area ahead and see what's going on behind!"

Hearing this, Su Yan and Lin Xiaoyu looked at each other and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. They had both been to the frontier before and had experienced sandstorms, so they naturally knew how terrifying a sandstorm could be.

Especially when accompanied by strong winds, if the two are combined together, it would be a disaster.

If there are stones mixed in the sandstorm, and if there is strong wind, the stones may hit the glass, which may result in the car being destroyed and people being killed.

Even if you are lucky, the car body will be full of potholes.

"Okay, big brother. If there is any situation ahead, I will report it to you in time."

Su Chen put the intercom back into the armrest box and looked out the window.

I saw a faint yellow mist in the distant horizon, forming a sharp contrast with the blue sky.

The strong wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the trees on the roadside were shaking violently, and it felt like they were about to be blown off.

The tiny grains of sand hit the car body, making a slight "rustling" sound.

“The weather is like a woman’s face, it changes at any time?

One second you were still admiring the beautiful mountains and rivers of the motherland, and the next second there was a strong wind and a sandstorm that had not yet arrived.

Chen Fei gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands, his face becoming more serious. "Boss, we have to get to the service area as soon as possible. It looks like the sandstorm is coming soon."

Su Chen nodded when he heard this. The yellow fog in the distant sky was much thicker than before. "Well, drive carefully. We should be able to reach the service area before the sandstorm comes."

The service area was not very far from them now, only less than eight kilometers away. Even if they slowed down a lot, it would only take ten minutes.

Unfortunately...imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel.

The yellow fog that was originally in the sky floated over in just a few minutes. The originally clear road was gradually covered by yellow sand. The speed of the car gradually dropped to about ten or twenty miles per hour. The vehicles in front turned on their fog lights and moved forward slowly.

In the end, the entire sky was dyed blood red, as if it was the end of the world.

Suddenly, the intercom rang again. It was Su Yan who came to ask Su Chen where they were now. He and Lin Xiaoyu had successfully arrived at the service area.

"We are almost there, only four or five minutes at most!" Su Chen looked at the navigation distance and replied while holding the walkie-talkie.

When Su Chen and his friends arrived at the service area, there were already quite a few cars parked in the parking lot. Many people had braved the sandstorm and hid in their houses. Many people were standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the sandstorm raging outside, all with worried looks on their faces.

After the car stopped, Su Chen was about to open the door and get out, but a gust of wind mixed with sand blew in his face. He quickly covered his nose and subconsciously closed the car door.

"If I get off the bus and walk into the service area, I will be covered with at least two kilograms of sand." Looking at the yellow sand all over the sky outside the window, Su Chen shook his head helplessly.

Su Chen, who had always lived in the south, had never seen such a scene before and couldn't help but be stunned.

On the contrary, Chen Fei quickly climbed from the main driver's seat to the back seat. He fumbled in the trunk for a while and quickly found a package, which he handed to Su Chen.

"Boss, this is for you. I didn't expect that the things I prepared before would come in handy in advance!" Chen Fei said with a hint of pride.

Ok?
Looking at what Fade Chen handed over, Su Chen's eyes flashed with doubt, and when he took it, he couldn't help but ask: "What is this?"

"Hehe~ I was thinking about going to the deserts like Dunhuang to play, so I specially prepared a few sets of sun protection suits!"

Hearing this, Su Chen took out the things inside, a sun mask that could cover not only most of the face, but even the neck completely.

There are three items left, namely a hat, ice sleeves and sunglasses.

It is better to put on these things and cover yourself up completely.

"Okay, you're quite thoughtful!" Su Chen smiled and touched Chen Fei's arm, then put on his clothes quickly.

After receiving Su Chen's praise, Chen Fei grinned. He grew up on the Loess Plateau. When he was young, he often saw the scene of yellow sand all over the sky, and he had already developed a habit of it.

After getting dressed, Su Chen and the other man opened the car door and got out. Their outfits surprised many passers-by who were standing in front of the window watching. No one had expected that someone would be so fully prepared.

When they walked into the service area hall, many people asked Su Chen and the others, "Brother, do you have any extra equipment? We can buy a set at a high price."

"Sorry, we don't have any extra!"

Who would prepare so much of this stuff? Su Chen said it several times, and these people turned around and left with a guilty conscience.

……

"Brother, why haven't they arrived yet? Did they encounter something on the way?" Su Yan stood in the corner and watched the man pacing back and forth outside the window, glancing outside from time to time.

"Don't worry. Do you think Brother Fei is like you, only looking ahead when driving?" Lin Xiaoyu pretended to be relaxed and comforted him, but he was actually a little anxious.

It was agreed that it would take a few minutes, but almost twenty minutes had passed and there was still no sign of Su Chen and the others.

Lin Xiaoyu knew that she couldn't panic now, otherwise both of them would be anxious and busy, and she wouldn't be able to help and would cause trouble for Su Chen and the others.

"I still like what Sister Xiaoyu says!" At this time, a voice came from behind the two of them.

Hearing the familiar voice, Su Yan and Lin Xiaoyu quickly turned around and saw two tightly wrapped black-faced men appear in front of them. They were so scared that their hearts almost jumped out of their throats.

Su Yan calmed down and immediately recognized who the two people in front of him were. He said with a slightly complaining tone: "Brother, Brother Xiaofei, why are you dressed like this? You really scared me to death just now!"

"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Su Chen took off his sunglasses and mask and said unhappily, "What? Do you still want your brother to come in eating sand?"

Su Yan chuckled and scratched his head embarrassedly. Thinking about it, it was true. This set of equipment was simply prepared for sandstorms.

"You have been here for so long. Have you asked the staff at the service area how long this sandstorm will last? If you can't leave, is there a place to stay?"

Hearing this, Lin Xiaoyu immediately took over the conversation, "Brother, this sandstorm may not stop today. As for the settlement, we booked two rooms after we learned about the situation."

As if worried that Su Chen would misunderstand that they were unwilling to spend money, they quickly explained: "The service area is worried that there will be too many passers-by stranded, so only one car is allowed per room!"

Su Chen nodded with satisfaction, and then glanced at Su Yan who was standing beside him. If Lin Xiaoyu hadn't thought of this, he believed that with Su Yan's brain, he would definitely not have thought of booking a room.

"Well! Let's go eat something to fill our stomachs first, and go to the store to buy some fast food like pig's trotters and chicken feet, so that we won't be hungry at night!"

As they were talking, the four of them were about to go to the restaurant to eat something, when they saw a group of young people rushing in through the door, and 90% of them were women.

Many people were holding signs that clearly said, "We are going to Minqin to plant trees!" (End of this chapter)
