Chapter 51: Su Chen, Are You Asleep?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Chen was happy to see Zhou Wanqiu so happy.
He realized that if he wanted things to be better, he had to make Zhou Wanqiu happy.
If he wanted Zhou Wanqiu to be in a good mood, he had to help Zhou Catering Group grow.
Su Chen suddenly felt that he should help Zhou Catering Group a little more.
This way, his life would be easier in the days to come.
They arrived home in no time.
As soon as they walked through the door, Zhou Pingjiang pulled Zhou Wanqiu over and asked her to explain what had happened in detail.
Zhao Guirong went to find Su Chen.
“Su Chen, did you eat enough at the banquet? Do you want me to make you some noodles?”
Zhao Guirong was so meticulous.
She was worried that Su Chen would be too reserved to eat in such a business setting.
However, Zhao Guirong did not know that Su Chen had no problem with that at all.
The food center project had already been given to the Zhou Catering Group.
Su Chen had no problem eating.
“Mrs. Zhao, you don’t have to. I’m already full.”
Su Chen declined politely, but he felt very touched.
“Su Chen, did you learn anything from the banquet?” Zhou Rongchang asked with a smile.
“The old master of the Yao family seems like one of the most influential people in the province. I asked Wanqiu to bring you there so that you can get some experience.”
Only then did Su Chen realize that it was he who had asked Zhou Wanqiu to bring him along.
Warmth coursed through him at the thought.
Although Zhou Wanqiu was picking on him, Zhou Rongchang and Zhao Guirong were sincere.
“Thank you, Grandpa! Old Master Yao is indeed very powerful. I’ve learned a lot from him.” Su Chen smiled.
Zhou Rongchang nodded in satisfaction.
Meanwhile…
Zhou Pingjiang was confused to hear Zhou Wanqiu’s story.
“Yao Zhenfeng is indeed treating you a little too well!” Zhou Pingjiang frowned.
“I wonder… Did he fall for you?” he muttered.
When Su Chen heard this, he almost choked.
Zhou Wanqiu also blushed and complained. “Dad, what are you talking about?”
Zhou Pingjiang realized that he had misspoken and quickly said, “I’m just guessing!
Maybe… Perhaps he has a grandson that he’d like to marry off!”
“Dad, stop talking nonsense. I’m ignoring you!” Zhou Wanqiu said coquettishly.
“It really doesn’t make sense!” Zhou Pingjiang laughed. “This old man is being too nice to you. He actually asked you to call him Grandpa…”
“Just because of the Yao family’s status in the province, I’d be happy to call him Grandpa too!”
Slap!
As soon as Zhou Pingjiang finished speaking, someone clapped his head.
He turned around and saw Zhou Rongchang standing behind him with a furious expression.
“B*stard! Did you call Yao Zhenfeng grandpa? Do you want me to call him father?”
The more the old man spoke, the angrier he became. He picked up his walking stick and was about to hit Zhou Pingjiang.
Zhou Pingjiang was so scared that he ran away and begged for mercy.
“Dad, that’s not what I meant!”
“Hey, Dad, I just wanted to emphasize that Yao Zhenfeng has a high status!”
“Dad, it hurts! It hurt! I was wrong…”
The villa’s living room was in chaos!
It was full of life.
Zhou Wanqiu covered her mouth and laughed.
However, when she turned and saw Su Chen smiling even more happily, she became unhappy.
Zhou Wanqiu walked up to Su Chen.
“Are you having fun watching my grandfather beat my father?”
Su Chen was confused.
“I didn’t make them fight,” Su Chen argued.
Zhou Wanqiu’s expression froze. “Th-then you’re not allowed to laugh.”
Su Chen felt a headache coming on.
Zhou Wanqiu was too hard to figure out.
She was happy one moment, and angry the next!
However, Su Chen did not know…
Whenever Zhou Wanqiu saw him, she would think of him in a red Ferrari or a pink
Mercedes-Benz G. She would think of Qin Yaoyao calling him “darling”!
That was why she was always angry with him.
Seeing Zhou Wanqiu’s glare, Su Chen could only hold back his laughter and watch Zhou
Rongchang chase after Zhou Pingjiang. He laughed to himself.
The Zhou family villa was filled with laughter.
As for He Zhentian, he was filled with sorrow!
Crash!
He Zhentian suddenly pushed everything on the table to the ground!
“Why? Why? F*ck!”
“What trick did that little sl*t use to make that old man, Yao Zhenfeng, like her so much?”
At this moment…
He Zhentian’s smile had been wiped off his face. He now looked as ferocious as a wolf.
Beside him…
Liu Xuan and the other bodyguards were trembling in fear and did not dare to speak up.
He Zhentian was so angry that he paced back and forth in the room, smashing whatever he saw.
After a while, his anger gradually subsided.
Seeing this, Liu Xuan quickly went forward and said, “President He, I think if we’re out of options, we can kidnap Zhou Wanqiu and…”
As he spoke, he made a throat-cutting gesture.
“Anyway, we have done this kind of thing many times in the past. I’ll wash my hands of it and make sure no one finds out.” Liu Xuan revealed a sinister expression.
He Zhentian pondered this.
He had done this many times in the past.
However, most of those things happened before he rose to power.
After he became a big shot in the food and beverage industry, he didn’t want to leave too much evidence that could be traced back to him.
However, Zhou Catering Group made him consider such acts again.
Suddenly, He Zhentian thought of someone.
“No!” He Zhentian shook his head. “You forgot someone!”
“Who is it?”
“Su Chen!” He Zhentian said. “That Zhou Wanqiu is protected by Su Chen. I’m afraid you won’t be able to handle him!”
Hearing this, Liu Xuan was a little discouraged.
He had almost forgotten that the biggest difference between Zhou Wanqiu and the people they had killed before was that she had an expert like Su Chen by her side. “President He, why don’t we bribe Su Chen?” Liu Xuan suggested.
He Zhentian was stunned. He thought about it carefully.
This idea was really tempting.
If he could really bribe Su Chen, it would probably be much easier to take down Zhou Catering Group.
In the end, He Zhentian made a decision. “Alright! Let’s try to bribe Su Chen first!”
It was late at night.
The people in the Zhou family’s villa had turned in for the night.
Su Chen was sitting cross-legged on his own bed.
He could hear Zhou Wanqiu tossing and turning on her bed.
Zhou Wanqiu was having trouble sleeping again.
Last night, she seemed to be annoyed by the food center project.
Today, maybe she was too excited.
However, Su Chen remembered the lesson he had learned last night and did not question her.
At this moment, Zhou Wanqiu suddenly said, “Su Chen, are you asleep?”
In order not to cause trouble for himself, Su Chen replied, “I’m asleep!”
Zhou Wanqiu was furious. She said, “You’re just trying to make me angry, aren’t you?”
“CEO Zhou, what’s the matter? Tell me,” Su Chen said helplessly.
“Su Chen, Old Master Yao seems to treat you very well. Why is that?” Zhou Wanqiu asked.
Su Chen thought about it and decided to tell the truth.
“Actually, the reason is very simple. Yesterday, he almost died, and I saved his life!”
“So, he’s treated me pretty well since then. That’s why he treats you so well too. He even gave you the food center project!”
In an instant…
The bedroom fell silent..
