HCB Chapter 122 Summer Vacation Begins
Chapter 122 Summer Vacation Begins
Unlike Yufei, who only found out about them after a whole semester, Cui Yu'an wasn't too surprised that they were together.
He was just a little envious, his eyes practically green with envy. That kid Jiang Yifeng had already succeeded without even understanding his own heart! And he still had to wait for the flowers to bloom.
Although he was very envious, he didn't impulsively confess his feelings to Yufei. There's a saying that wine becomes more mellow with age; he was currently brewing a jar of wine called love, and when the flowers bloomed, the most delicious vintage would emerge.
Okay! He didn't dare... Even though he had only spent almost a year with Yufei, he had a pretty good grasp of her personality. He wouldn't say he understood her 100%, but he understood over 90% of it.
Once Yufei makes up her mind, nothing can change it. He only has two years to wait, and he doesn't want his impatience to cause him to lose the opportunity to pursue Yufei.
Some say love can't wait, and hesitation leads to defeat! That's true for others, but not for Yufei, the only person he wants. All he can do now is use these two years to win her heart.
Cui Yu'an looked tenderly at Yufei and Jiang Yifeng, who were arguing heatedly over Lin Tiantian.
When Yufei was struggling to overcome Jiang Yifeng, she helplessly stepped in to smooth things over.
"Our first year of high school is almost over. I heard that only the first year of high school has a full summer vacation. Do you have any plans?"
What to do? I must pamper the person I love; I absolutely cannot let the person I love lose.
Hearing Cui Yu'an's words, Yufei went along with it, saying, "Hmph, I won't argue with you! We've made plans for summer vacation; we're not going to bring those adults along, just the few of us going on a trip."
It's a pity we're not old enough to get a driver's license yet, otherwise I'd love to go on a road trip.
Yufei said with a regretful expression.
"It's okay, when we turn 18, we'll go on a road trip again, going wherever we want to go whenever we want," Cui Yu'an comforted her.
Yufei was only slightly down for a moment before quickly regaining her spirits, patting Cui Yu'an on the shoulder and saying with a look of agreement...
"You're right!" Yufei actually had a very specific purpose for this trip, so the beach was her only choice, even though she felt bad for her travel companions.
But they'll probably have a great time visiting Qiongzhou; she understands all too well the longing for the sea that people like them, who have never seen it before, have.
They felt like they could play on the beach for days on end. And so, after finishing their final exams and their homeroom teacher assigning summer homework, they announced that summer vacation had begun.
After leaving school, they went straight home to grab their suitcases, which they had prepared over the past few days, and prepared to leave.
Yufei and her companions took a ferry and then a bus to Longyang County. The Longyang County of today was completely different from the Longyang County of her memories; it was even more prosperous than the time when she was reborn in her previous life.
The influx of people brought by Longyuan Town has revitalized Longyang County. Once Longyang is officially incorporated into Longyuan Town's development plan in the second half of the year, Longyang County is sure to experience another wave of rapid growth.
Today, Yufei didn't rush through Longyang County like usual. She first went to the Peace Hotel to have a meal with Lin Tiantian. Zhu Xiangui has now become the largest shareholder of the Peace Hotel.
A few years ago, the original owner of the Peace Hotel suffered losses from failed investments elsewhere and was unable to make up for them, so he had to sell some of his shares.
Zhu Xiangui seized the opportunity, borrowed some money from Yufei, and added it to his own savings to buy up all the shares that had been sold.
In addition, he also regularly acquired small shares of the Peace Hotel, which eventually made him the largest shareholder and owner of the Peace Hotel.
After seeing Zhu Xiangui become the largest shareholder of the Peace Hotel, Yufei deepened her cooperation with the hotel, and the recipes for several signature dishes helped the Peace Hotel reach a new level.
Under Zhu Xiangui's leadership, the company even went public. However, despite the success of the Peace Hotel and his net worth exceeding 100 million, he didn't become arrogant; he remained steady and pragmatic.
In order to maintain contact with Longyuan Town, Zhu Xiangui remained active in Longyang County, but he would make random checks at the Peace Hotel branch in batches each month.
This allowed him to learn about the Peace Hotel's annual operations, and he became extremely busy. Luckily, he happened to see Yufei and the others arriving for dinner just as he returned today.
He quickly and warmly ushered them to the "National Beauty and Heavenly Fragrance" room, a private room he had specially prepared for Yufei and her companions.
"Yufei, why didn't you let your Uncle Zhu know you were coming? If I hadn't come back just in time, I would have missed entertaining you."
After Zhu Xiangui had helped Yufei and the others to sit down, he began to complain to Yufei. Of course, this was a friendly complaint and wouldn't make anyone uncomfortable.
"Uncle Zhu! We've known each other for so many years, why are you being so polite? We're just here for a meal, like having a meal at home, there's no need for any hospitality."
Yufei spoke affectionately to Zhu Xiangui.
"Yes, yes, yes! It must feel like home. Just order whatever you want to eat." After saying that, she handed over the menu and told the waiter next to her to bring one of the restaurant's signature dishes.
Yufei quickly stopped him upon seeing this.
"Uncle Zhu, the five of us can't eat that much. Ordering too much would be a waste. We want to practice the 'Clean Plate Campaign,' so we've only ordered enough for us. We've already ordered this, this, and this. Please don't bring any other dishes, or I'll get angry."
Yufei pouted, pretending to be angry, and Zhu Xiangui quickly said...
"Okay, okay~ whatever my niece says goes. But don't be shy about eating at home. If you pay the bill after you finish eating, I'll get angry, that's disrespecting me."
Zhu Xiangui also pretended that he would be angry if Yufei did what he said, and said...
Yufei gave an OK sign, and the two began eating enthusiastically.
As Zhu Xiangui served them food with serving chopsticks, he asked Yufei...
"Where are you all going, carrying all those big suitcases?"
Yufei ate the food in her bowl while answering Zhu Xiangui's questions.
"Now that we're on summer vacation, and I'm a freshman in high school this year, my mom finally agreed to let me go out and have fun, so we're planning a trip to Qiongzhou."
"Qiongzhou?" Zhu Xiangui thought for a moment, told Yufei to wait for him, and then hurriedly went out. When he returned, he had several vouchers.
"Here, this is for you. It was given to me by a business partner who owns a hotel. He said that if you use this voucher, you can get a 5% discount at his hotels. I heard that his hotels are oceanfront hotels with sea views. You should like it."
After saying that, he handed it to Yufei.
Yufei accepted it without hesitation, nodding in agreement.
Thank you, Uncle Zhu.
