Chapter 409 Preparation
That was definitely a guilty conscience.

Chen Yanjin scratched his head: "Okay, I'll make it up to you. Whatever you want to eat in Beijing today, I'll get it for you."

“That’s more like it!” Gao Lu raised an eyebrow.

Then I started to let loose. Before setting off, I did some research and noted down a lot of traditional Beijing delicacies, as well as popular online restaurants.

We must bleed Chen Yancheng dry, no matter what.

That bastard lied to me for four years. I don't know how many times I fed him, even the people in his dorm, just to get him some good food.

Because of this, I've been laughed at a lot.

My roommate said she's been desperately trying to get involved, but nobody wants her. Her childhood friends don't understand either, and her best friend said she's going to find someone to teach Chen Yancheng a lesson for being so ungrateful.

After strolling through Yandaixie Street, Gao Lu didn't go back. Instead, she sought revenge in various ways, going to Nanluoguxiang and then to Wangfujing to eat Quanjude roast duck.

Seeing her eating heartily, Chen Yanjin teased, "Can you still eat? Should we go to another restaurant?"

"That's enough for today, we'll continue playing tomorrow."

Gao Lu raised an eyebrow slightly and swallowed the food in her mouth: "Don't even think about refusing. Sister Yan Xi said you have to be my tour guide for the next few days."

Chen Yancheng smiled wryly: "Fine, whatever you say."

Gao Lu nodded slightly: "That's more like it. Let me ask you something. You have three mothers, how do they manage to get along so well?"

"They all seem to dote on you a lot."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yancheng pondered for a moment: "They were originally sisters. My mother and my second mother were both raised by my first aunt when they were young."

"As for their love story, that's a long story."

Seeing Gao Lu's interest, Chen Yancheng didn't hide anything and explained his parents' love story in detail: "Pretty amazing, right?"

Gao Lu said, "It is quite amazing, especially your mother, who, along with your father, went through thick and thin together and faced life and death together."

Chen Yancheng put down his chopsticks: "Indeed, and more than once. In 98, they were kidnapped again, and my aunt was in the car at the time."

Gao Lu was stunned for a moment before scratching her head and asking, "What kind of business does your family do? Goodness, why do you keep getting kidnapped?"

"Take out your phone."

"What's wrong?" Gao Lu took out her phone, the latest Feixing phone of the year.

Chen Yanjin pointed to the phone: "Ours."

"Feixing phones, yours? Nonsense, impossible." Gao Lu held the phone, turning it over and over, shaking her head vigorously.

Seeing that Chen Yancheng didn't speak, he asked again, "Really?"

"real!"

"Damn it, Chen Yancheng, you're a liar, a bastard! Feixing belongs to your family, and you, a prince, are pretending to be a poor student? Have you no shame?"

Gao Lu grabbed Chen Yancheng's arm and bit down hard until Chen Yancheng screamed in pain and people at the nearby tables looked over before she let go.

Then, he frowned and said, "Goodness, my dad even came to see you, saying he would arrange a job for you and give you start-up capital in the future. You must have been secretly laughing at that moment, right?"

"No, that's not true. Don't overthink it."

Chen Yancheng quickly defended himself: "At that time, I could only admire him. It's really not easy for a father to do so much for his children."

"You know how to talk," Gao Lu said, finally satisfied.

After dinner, the two took a taxi home. As soon as they entered the door, a figure pounced on them and clung to Chen Yancheng: "Third Brother Chen, did you miss me?"

"Come down you!"

Chen Yancheng disdainfully pulled his younger sister off: "How old are you? Still acting like a child. Let me introduce you, this is my classmate..."

"No need for your introduction."

Chen Yanyin pushed her brother aside: "I am Chen Yanyin, the twin sister of Chen Laosan. You must be my sister-in-law, Gao Lu?"

Gao Lu slightly raised the corners of her mouth.

Before she could speak, Chen Yancheng pulled his sister aside: "Don't shout. I haven't seen you all day. Where have you been running around?"

"I went to see my roommates off."

Chen Yanyin pushed her brother away and took Gao Lu's arm, saying, "Sister-in-law, don't pay him any attention. He's such a blockhead. Everyone's making tea in the living room, let's go too." Gao Lu really liked this nickname.

She turned to look at Chen Yancheng, raised her eyebrows slightly, and made a gesture of control.

Chen Yancheng smiled wryly and could only follow. As soon as he entered the house, he heard his mother say, "A-Ling, your sister and brother-in-law are going to Hong Kong in a few days. You should go with them."

"Auntie will be going too. She'll take you to visit Luoshen and other biological anti-aging projects. You can choose a direction for that later."

"Aunt Zhao, is it appropriate for me to go?" Ye Ling tugged at the hem of her clothes, looking somewhat uneasy.

She knew the purpose of the Chen family's trip to Hong Kong; her sister and brother-in-law hadn't hidden it from her. On the one hand, they had a major project, and on the other hand, they wanted to make an appearance in the business district.

Zhao Yuanyuan pinched her cheek: "You're usually so straightforward, why are you being shy? We're all family, if there's anything inappropriate, then it's settled."

Before Ye Ling could object, he looked at Gao Lu and said, "Xiao Lu, you should come along too."

"Ah..." Gao Lu was confused.

Zhao Yuanyuan explained that she was going to Hong Kong, and Gao Lu hurriedly said, "Aunt Zhao, I don't have a travel permit."

“It’s no big deal. Bring your ID card tomorrow and have Lao San take you to handle it. He’ll put in a good word with the higher-ups, and you can get it the next day,” Zhao Yuanyuan said.

"Chen Yancheng?" Gao Lu raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

"I'll go tomorrow!" Chen Yancheng said with a wry smile.

My family's attitude has made it clear that my free single life is coming to an end, and I wouldn't rule out dating Gao Lu.

Seeing this, Chen Fan took out cigarettes, tossed one to each of his two sons, lit one for his father Chen Musheng, and finally lit one for himself: "Third son, you'll be starting your job this time."

"Dad, I know!" Chen Yancheng nodded.

Just as I was about to light my cigarette, I saw the older woman glaring at me. For a moment, I didn't know whether to light it or not. After a while, I finally mustered up the courage to light it.

Finally, he glanced at his second brother.

Seeing that her second brother had also lit it, she breathed a sigh of relief. Her eldest sister couldn't possibly clean both of them at the same time, could she?

"Honey, stop glaring at me. It's okay to have one now and then, just don't get addicted."

Chen Fan tapped the table lightly, then looked at the third brother: "After you get there, first help your second brother win this financial war."

"Also, I need to familiarize myself with Feixing's operating model as soon as possible. Once I am fully familiar with it, I will serve as the vice president of Xinghuo Investment, in charge of Feixing's business."

"I'll give you Feixing later."

"But there are too many companies related to aviation. How much you can ultimately take on depends on your own abilities. Just don't blame me for being unfair later."

"Second brother, just don't blame me for taking too much." Chen Yancheng looked at his second brother provocatively.

Chen Yanjin scoffed, too lazy to pay him any attention.

Chen Yanxi couldn't stand it anymore and slapped the second brother on the back of the head: "Keep the third brother in check. If he gets fooled, I'll skin you alive."

Chen Yanjin rubbed the back of his head and smiled wryly: "Sis, can you be any more biased? Aren't you worried that I'll be fooled?"

Chen Yanxi sneered: "You? You're smarter than a monkey when you're tangled up. After we get to Hong Kong, help the third brother sort out Fei Xing. If you need to be ruthless, don't leave a single one alive."

"It only makes sense for the third brother to do it himself."

Chen Yanjin took a drag of his cigarette and looked at his younger brother: "I've already sorted out the jade for you. I'll send it to your email later. Remember, be ruthless."

Chen Yancheng nodded in agreement.

Chen Fan nodded in satisfaction: "When Xiao Wu comes back, Second Brother, ask him what he wants to do in the future. He'll be a sophomore when school starts again, and he should have a direction by now."

Chen Yanjin sighed, "Xiao Wu is the most difficult to deal with."

He's only been in university for a year and has already had two girlfriends. He's having so much fun at Xiamen University that he doesn't want to leave. He even failed a course last semester. I wonder how he'll fare this semester.

We shouldn't have let him go to Xiamen University in the first place.

He should stay in the capital. With his older sister looking after him and keeping an eye on him, he won't cause any trouble.

But this little bastard was shameless enough to beg his parents and older sister all day long. In the end, his older sister softened and agreed to let him go to the south.

Judging by the time, they should be back soon.
