"Why are you guys back?"

Seeing Chen Fei and Xiao Peng following behind Jiang Hui, Su Chen asked in surprise.

He had given them half a month of paid leave. Why were they back after only a week?

Chen Fei and Xiao Peng glanced at each other, and in the end, Chen Fei stepped forward to explain.

The story was that after the two returned to their hometowns, they briefly told their families about their new jobs. When their families saw the 500,000 yuan, they were beyond thrilled.

They were all moved to tears of joy, exclaiming that they could finally live a good life.

Chen Fei had only been relaxing at home for three or four days before his mom kicked him out. Her reasoning was simple: since Su Chen had given them such great benefits, they should serve him with all their heart and soul. She wouldn’t let him take the full half-month of paid leave he was offered. So, after just a few days at home, he flew back to the Imperial Capital.

Xiao Peng’s story was similar. After returning home, he gave the money to his parents so they could improve their living conditions and rebuild their dilapidated house.

He didn’t even mention buying a house in the city, as he knew his parents’ generation had put down roots on the Loess Plateau and wouldn’t be able to leave.

Su Chen couldn’t help but sigh with emotion. ’Simple, honest people really do still exist!’

"Hm, since you’re back, you can start work. By the way, you both have passports, right?"

Although Chen Fei and the other man were a little puzzled by the question, they nodded honestly.

"Alright. Go with Jiang Hui and get your accommodations sorted out. I’ll call you if I need anything."

"Yes, sir!" Chen Fei and Xiao Peng replied respectfully.

Su Chen nodded slightly and waved his hand, signaling for Jiang Hui to lead them away.

It was already the end of the month. He had promised Sicong he’d go to Gaul with him, but he wasn’t sure which day they were leaving.

BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ~

A smile touched Su Chen’s lips as he looked at the caller ID on his phone.

’Speak of the devil.’ He had just been wondering when Sicong was planning to leave, and now here was his call.

"Sicong, are you calling to tell me to get ready to fly to Gaul?"

"Uh, how’d you know? I’ve arranged the plane for three in the afternoon. Do you need me to pick you up?"

Su Chen thought for a moment and decided to drive over himself. He planned to bring Jiang Hui, Chen Fei, and Xiao Peng with him on this trip.

Back when he was a delivery driver, he often discussed major international affairs with the other riders and had indirectly learned a few things...

Those developed countries in Europe weren’t necessarily as safe as home. You could get robbed on the street in broad daylight.

Su Chen was just being prepared for any eventuality.

"No need, just tell me where to go. Also, I’ve got three people with me."

Su Chen then briefly explained about Jiang Hui and the others.

"No problem, the plane this time is big enough. Just give me a call when you get to the airport."

After they sorted out the details, Su Chen hung up.

Just then, Jiang Hui walked back in. It looked like he had gotten Chen Fei and the others settled.

"Old Jiang, come here for a second!"

"What is it, sir!" Jiang Hui quickly trotted over to Su Chen’s side.

"Pack your things. We’re going to Gaul this afternoon. Remember to tell Chen Fei and the others to get ready."

Jiang Hui was stunned for a moment to hear they were going to Gaul, but he quickly recovered.

"Yes, sir. I’ll make the arrangements immediately!"

Jiang Hui left as quickly as he had arrived. He first went to the front courtyard to inform Chen Fei and Xiao Peng.

Then he returned to Su Chen’s room in the rear courtyard to pack his clothes. He even made a point to check the recent weather in Gaul. Before he knew it, he had filled two large suitcases.

After lunch, Su Chen called Aunt Tang over and gave her specific instructions. He told her he was going on a long trip and asked her to look after the house, as well as take care of Little Yuanbao and the koi fish in the pond.

As they were leaving, Su Chen noticed a change. He wasn’t sure if Chen Fei and Xiao Peng had discussed it privately, but this time, Xiao Peng was the one driving.

Su Chen had previously asked about the two men’s skills and areas of expertise.

The answer he got was that they were all-rounders. They knew a bit of everything; even flying a plane was no problem for them.

As for combat ability, Chen Fei had a slight edge.

’Looks like they’ve already decided between themselves who’s responsible for driving and who’s responsible for close protection.’

When they arrived at the airport, Su Chen found Sicong in the parking garage, chatting with a pure and beautiful young woman.

"Girlfriend?" Su Chen asked, raising an eyebrow at the cute girl next to Sicong.

"Yep. This is Coco. Say hi to Brother Cheen," Sicong said with a smile, pulling Coco into his arms.

"Brother Cheen..."

She was incredibly shy, perhaps because it was their first meeting, or because Sicong had just acknowledged her as his girlfriend in front of someone else.

"Let’s go. It’s getting late." Su Chen was in no mood to watch the two of them be all lovey-dovey.

Seeing Su Chen about to head for the elevator, Sicong quickly said, "Old Su, we’re driving in. We don’t have to walk."

Su Chen glanced at him but didn’t ask any questions. He immediately signaled for Chen Fei and the others to put the luggage back in the car.

The two cars drove out of the parking garage, circled the airport for two or three minutes, and then turned into a large gate.

"Commercial Jet Passenger Entrance!"

The gate was a solid, fully enclosed iron door. Sicong showed some credentials to the guard, and the gate slowly opened.

As they drove in, the first thing that came into view was a row of private jets, most of which were similar in size to Sicong’s own small private jet.

Soon, the cars stopped in front of a huge airplane.

Compared to this plane, the small private jets next to it were like little kids.

Su Chen looked at the massive aircraft in front of him and asked in astonishment, "Sicong, did you bring out Old Wang’s private jet?"

"Hehe, when my dad heard you were going to Gaul too, he went ahead and arranged for his large private jet to be sent over!"

"Come on, let’s go up and see what it’s like!"

The flight crew, who had been waiting for some time, took the luggage from Chen Fei and the others.

Su Chen noticed that the flight attendants were all very young, with exceptionally beautiful faces and figures.

"Tsk tsk, Old Wang sure knows how to live," Su Chen muttered under his breath.

When Su Chen boarded the plane, he was slightly taken aback by the interior decor. Its luxury was on par with his own Seascape One in Shanghai.

The entire aircraft interior was divided into four sections: besides the crew area, there was a lounge, an entertainment area, and a bedroom in the back.

Surprisingly, the plane even had two separate bathrooms, which were equipped not just for washing up but also for showering.

"Sir, the plane is about to take off. Please fasten your seatbelt." Before Su Chen could react, a beautiful flight attendant was kneeling in front of him, fastening his seatbelt for him.

Her hand, whether intentionally or not, brushed lightly over Su Chen’s lap, giving him a strange sensation.

But the moment he remembered this was Sicong’s dad’s private jet, the strange feeling vanished without a trace.

Sicong, however, had witnessed Su Chen’s awkward moment from the side. After the plane took off, he sidled up to Su Chen with a mischievous grin.

"Old Su, I saw you had some ideas just now. What do you say? Want me to set something up for you? These girls were specially arranged for, straight from school."

"You’re saying these people are...?"

Although Sicong didn’t say it outright, Su Chen understood the implication.

"You guys really have your fun..." Su Chen couldn’t help but sigh. ’My horizons have really been limited.’

"This is nothing, just child’s play. There’s a tycoon in the real estate industry... The man has a professional song and dance troupe. Every single member is handpicked through multiple rounds of selection; only the best of the best get in!"

Su Chen was secretly speechless. He originally thought the entertainment industry was messy enough, but who knew there were even wilder things going on.

’They’re basically picking imperial concubines!’

’As I meet more of these people in the future, I’m afraid I’ll run into many more of these "interesting" stories.’

Sicong tried to persuade him for a long time, but Su Chen still wouldn’t agree to a round of the explosive "air-quake"!

"Ai, Old Su, you..." Seeing that Su Chen wasn’t tempted in the slightest, he could only give up.

"Wanna go to the entertainment room in the back and play? We can play some golf!"

"Golf?" ’How can you play golf on a plane?’ Su Chen was curious to see how it worked.

"Let’s go."

Su Chen didn’t hesitate at all, getting up and heading toward the back.

The entire entertainment room was about 20 square meters, which was quite spacious.

He saw two flight attendants busy setting up various pieces of equipment and a patch of simulated turf. A few golf clubs were placed to the side.

"Indoor golf??"

Indoor golf, also known as a golf simulator, uses a high-speed VISION camera and a projector to recreate the course.

When a player hits a real golf ball with a real golf club toward a large screen displaying a 3D golf course, sensors measure the relevant data, analyze it, and project the ball’s flight path onto the screen.

The flight attendants worked quickly. In three to five minutes, they had it all installed, and they turned on the equipment to test it.

Looking at the simulated golf course in front of him, Su Chen felt an itch to try...

Although he wanted to play, he had never played golf before. To avoid making a fool of himself, he decided to let Sicong take a few shots first so he could learn.

"You go first. I’ll watch and learn," Su Chen said, not trying to hide the fact that he didn’t know how to play. He directly gestured for Sicong to start.

"Hahaha, never thought I’d see the day I get to be the teacher."

Sicong found a club that felt good in his hands, gave it a few practice swings, and then walked up to the screen.

A flight attendant promptly dimmed some of the lights and didn’t forget to pull down the window shades.

"Actually, golf is very simple. Just pay attention to two key points: one is the correct stance, and the second is the swing posture!"

With that, he hit the ball.

The ball hit the screen, which immediately displayed the arc of its flight.

Unexpectedly, the ball Sicong hit landed and stopped right near the hole.

"Whoa, Sicong, you’re that good?"

Hearing Su Chen’s praise, Sicong just smiled calmly. "A piece of cake!"

Inwardly, however, he was bursting with joy. ’Thank goodness Su Chen doesn’t know anything about this. If he found out I was playing on the beginner course, he’d laugh his ass off.’

"You wanna give it a shot?"

"You bet I do!" Su Chen walked up, full of enthusiasm.

But what Sicong never expected was that once Su Chen started trying, he didn’t stop until the plane landed.
