Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

Dongzi didn't understand what was going on for a moment.

How can you say you're just here to freeload? You can't even walk past a pretty girl!

Moreover, the things they have are meant to be delivered to someone else!

Isn't that embarrassing?!

As a result, Dongzi's toes are now almost worn through the soles of his shoes.

Old Zhou is a big shot. Since he has said that, can they still take the gifts they are carrying?

Wouldn't this offend someone? If he really took the things away today, he felt he would never be able to face Old Zhou again.

Dongzi was getting a little anxious and looked at Ye Chen, hoping he would say something.

Before you even get inside, quickly say you have something else to do and need to go somewhere else!

In contrast, Lin Rongrong was stunned when she saw Old Zhou appear.

I was stunned for several seconds, my mind reeling with turmoil.

No, no, boss?

Lin Rongrong's mind went blank, filled with questions, and she was utterly shocked.

This...this is the boss's house?!

How come Ye Chen is so familiar with her boss?

Could it be that the friend Ye Chen mentioned is her boss?

She was quite observant, and upon hearing the words "mooching a meal," an unbelievable thought popped into her mind.

My God, this world is crazy...

The amount of information was so overwhelming that Lin Rongrong's CPU was practically boiling over; she could hardly believe what she was seeing.

Ye Chen actually knows her boss!!!

And they seem to have a very good relationship!

In that case, there's clearly no need to look for any other so-called HR friends!

If you're already familiar with the boss, why would you need to ask the underlings to smooth things over?

Judging from the situation on the day of her interview, it seems that even if the person in charge of HR gave her the green light, it wasn't yet time for her to directly meet the boss!

At least there should be a process for the initial interview; she had some doubts about this at the time.

However, I was a bit nervous at the time and didn't think much about it.

It seems that Ye Chen directly contacted Jay Chou!

Wardtian—

But isn't this the only explanation that makes sense?

Given that Ye Chen shows no intention of leaving, it's even easier to make a judgment.

Ye Chen wasn't the kind of person who couldn't distinguish between important and trivial matters. Since he was going to take her to thank his friend, he certainly wouldn't forget about it after just a few steps.

So there's only one truth: Jay Chou is the friend Ye Chen was talking about.

Lin Rongrong quickly connected these scattered pieces of information in her mind, and suddenly felt enlightened!

At the same time, she was also shocked: why did Ye Chen know her boss?

Are these two related?

Lin Rongrong couldn't figure it out, but now was not the time for her to think about it too much.

She quickly spoke up, "Mr. Zhou, so you're the friend Ye Chen mentioned? I thought..."

Old Zhou nodded to Lin Rongrong: "Hehe, I thought it was something serious. Come on in, don't stand in the yard!"

Having served as class monitor for several years, Lin Rongrong was quite adept at interpersonal relationships and immediately said, "We are deeply grateful to Mr. Zhou for his recognition and have prepared some small gifts to express our gratitude!"

"Hehe, no need to be so polite when you come to my home, why waste money!" Old Zhou said with a smile and a wave of his hand.

"I know Mr. Jay Chou has everything he needs, this is just a small token of my appreciation!" Lin Rongrong stepped forward and handed the gift to Zhou Caiwei.

Zhou Caiwei smiled and accepted the things Lin Rongrong was carrying: "They're all Brother Ye Chen's friends, no need to be so formal!"

Although Dongzi was shocked at this moment, he roughly understood after listening to Lin Rongrong's conversation with Old Zhou.

He knew beforehand that Old Zhou's family was wealthy and his social status was certainly not low.

What a coincidence!

Good heavens, Old Zhou is the big boss of Rongrong's company?!

He had no idea before, but now he felt like the clouds had parted and the sky was clear.

He had long suspected that these old men in the neighborhood were extraordinary. They had given a gift of 5000 million yuan when the TCM clinic opened. How could they be ordinary people?

What a coincidence! Someone there turned out to be the boss of Rongrong's company.

"What a coincidence! I never knew you owned Xingcai Foods!" Dongzi stammered.

At the same time, he hurriedly handed what he was holding to Caiwei, smiling and saying, "It's just a small token!"

"Come on, don't just stand there like an idiot. We're here to freeload, not to stand guard. There's no boss here today!" Ye Chen called out.

Old Zhou chuckled, "That's right, it's just a meal among friends today, don't be so formal. Xiao Dong, just have a couple more drinks for your partner later!"

Dongzi grinned: "Okay, sure!"

Lin Rongrong blushed, but didn't say anything.

Grandpa Zhou wasn't home today, and Ye Chen couldn't find him to play games with after entering the house.

I asked and found out that Grandpa Zhou had taken four teammates to participate in the Senior Citizens Cup competition!

Okay, he's already a professional player participating in competitions, so I'm afraid I'd rather not have him help me rank up in the future...

The food at the Zhou family's house was as delicious as ever. I don't know if it was because Ye Chen and his group came today, but the food was very plentiful and no less delicious than eating at a banquet outside.

The restaurant offers more than ten dishes, including lobster, king crab, red crab, grouper, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, and wild red mushroom soup, all of which are delicious and visually appealing.

Even the rice noodle soup has many ingredients added, simple and unpretentious.

Ye Chen wolfed down the food because it was really delicious!

Zhou Caiwei would occasionally put some food on his plate, watching Ye Chen eat with a smile, as if she were appreciating something beautiful, while she herself would only take a bite occasionally.

Looking at his granddaughter, Old Zhou felt extremely gratified and happy!

Dongzi and Lin Rongrong seemed a bit reserved, and they ate very politely.

A meal without wine is soulless. Apart from Zhou Caiwei and Lin Rongrong who only had a few drinks, Zhou Laoye, Chen, and Dongzi drank quite a lot.

After drinking half a jin of liquor, he noticeably started talking more.

Zhou Caiwei poured wine for Ye Chen, while Lin Rongrong poured wine for Old Zhou and Dongzi.

The atmosphere warmed up.

Zhou Caiwei blinked her big eyes, watching Ye Chen drink, and asked curiously, "Brother Ye Chen, why is my grandpa's face all red, but you seem completely unaffected?"

"Really?" Ye Chen touched his face. "Oh, none of them can hold their liquor as well as I can. This is nothing; I've only just started warming up!"

"But I remember the last time you drank this much, you were already quite dizzy!" Zhou Caiwei said with absolute certainty.

"Impossible, right? With my high alcohol tolerance, how could I possibly get dizzy? You must have mistaken me for someone else. Is it your grandfather?" Ye Chen glanced at Zhou Caiwei.

Old Zhou immediately became displeased: "Hey kid, last time you drank it all under the table, I almost recorded a video of it, don't be stubborn!"

"That's right, I had to help you to your room!" Zhou Caiwei wrinkled her nose.

Ye Chen felt a little embarrassed; he had indeed blacked out the last time he drank.

"Oh, well, everyone improves eventually. I've already mastered it; they're no match for me anymore. Even if I gave them a handicap, they still couldn't beat me!"

Old Zhou picked up the decanter: "Tch, do you need to offer me this? Besides, do you drink with your hands? Here, have half a pitcher first!"
