199: Chapter 199 Family Arrival
Outside Chengdu Airport on October 1st, sunlight wrapped in the sweet scent of osmanthus flowers drifted over the traffic. The bustle of the National Day holiday warmed the air in the airport parking lot, and countless people flowed in and out like a torrential river.
A silver bentley bentayga sat quietly inside the airport. Its sleek body lines were like a meticulously polished work of art, and the light reflecting off its spinning wheels swept across the crowd, instantly snatching the gazes of more than half the passersby. Su Ye, leaning against the car door, became an even more eye-catching presence than the car itself.
The bentley bentayga was certainly eye-catching, and Su Ye was undeniably handsome, but what they found even stranger was how Su Ye's car had managed to drive inside.
Su Ye was wearing a light gray turtleneck cashmere sweater, topped with a camel-colored short trench coat. His trousers were neatly tucked into white sneakers. He wore no accessories, yet he could not hide the air of nobility about him. Sunlight fell upon his well-defined face, casting a small shadow from his high-bridged nose. His thin lips were slightly pursed with a hint of nonchalance, but when his eyes swept toward the exit of the terminal, they held a hidden, imperceptible anticipation.
A young beauty in jeans slowly came to a stop. She let go of the handle of her suitcase, pushed down the oversized sunglasses on her nose, and pulled out her phone to record a video of the silver Bentley. She murmured to herself: "My god, is this the latest bentley bentayga? It must cost several million, right! And this young man is just too handsome."
As she filmed, she fantasized in her mind about whether some coincidence might lead to a dramatic encounter with the owner of this bentley bentayga, playing out a romance trope of a domineering CEO meeting her.
In reality, the luxury cars ordinary people have seen or sat in are generally BBA or Porsches costing around a million. Very few ordinary people have actually sat in a luxury car worth several million. Unless one is pretending to be richer than they are, those who can afford such luxury cars have a net worth of tens of millions to over a hundred million; to ordinary people, they are already considered a minor wealthy clan.
A couple with a child stopped. The man heard the girl's words. He had been a sales manager at a Bentley 4S dealership in another city, had just resigned, and was taking his family out for a trip to relax. But upon hearing someone mention a bentley bentayga, he reflexively took a look, and upon looking, he was instantly stunned.
The woman saw her husband stop moving, tugged his hand, and asked: "What's wrong?"
The man gasped, then glanced at the young beauty nearby and lowered his voice to say: "I know this bentley bentayga. I didn't expect to see this bentley bentayga worth over ten million here."
The young beauty next to him frowned and asked suspiciously: "I saw online that this latest model is only three million-plus. How could it be over ten million? You must have remembered wrong, mister."
The man's mouth twitched. He wasn't even forty yet, how did he become a "mister"? But seeing the curious gazes of several people who had stopped around them, he still said slowly: "A normal bentley bentayga is currently priced at over 3.3 million. But this model is different. This is the bulletproof version, the base price is over 6 million, not to mention that as far as I know, this one has also been fitted with many safety features, so the price is definitely over ten million. Let me put it this way: if you drove this car into a small battlefield, you'd probably be fine."
"Hiss—" A collective gasp of cold air came from the surrounding crowd, making an outstanding contribution to global warming. The gleam in the young beauty's eyes grew even brighter, and she hurriedly tidied up her appearance, wanting to go and get to know Su Ye.
Before she had taken two steps, Su Ye's eyes instantly lit up—at the exit, Su Hong was pushing a suitcase and walking in front.
Su Xingxing, with her hair in two pigtails and holding a monkey doll in her arms, was looking around left and right. Su Hong said calmly from behind: "Stop looking, Xingxing. This is inside the airport; your brother's car can't drive in here."
Su Xingxing's face suddenly lit up with joy. She shook her little head, pointed to a corner not far away, and said: "Daddy, you're wrong! Isn't that brother?"
Su Hong and Li Mei behind him were stunned. They looked in the direction Su Xingxing was pointing, and it really was Su Ye. Then, they walked toward Su Ye, completely confused.
Su Xingxing trotted in front. When she was half a meter away from Su Ye, she jumped up from where she stood like a little ball. Su Ye hurriedly scooped the little one into his arms, making her giggle with delight.
As soon as he walked up, Su Hong frowned and said: "How did you get in? Did you ask your Fourth Uncle to pull strings?"
Li Mei walked up quickly, touched the sleeve of Su Ye's trench coat, and frowned as she scolded: "You child, the temperature has dropped. Don't you know it's cold in Chengdu? It's only ten-something degrees today. Why aren't you wearing more?"
"Come here, let me take one of your dad's clothes out of the suitcase for you to wear first, or you'll catch a cold later."
Su Ye knew his father, Su Hong, meant no harm; he was just afraid that Su Ye was misbehaving by relying on Fourth Uncle Su Yi's reputation. He smiled and explained: "No, how could I trouble Fourth Uncle with such a small matter? Fourth Uncle would scold me to death. I'm a Super VIP; getting into the internal road is a piece of cake."
Su Hong clearly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that after Su Yi had been missing for so many years, coupled with what happened back then, he felt guilty toward the Su Family, especially toward Su Hong. Plus, he had always liked Su Ye very much. Now that Su Ye was the only male descendant of the Su Family, he was surely doting on him. Su Hong was just afraid that Su Ye would act spoiled and cause Su Yi to make a mistake.
"That's good. Is this your car?" Looking at the Bentley, which refracted a hazy silver light in the sunlight, a trace of longing flashed in Su Hong's eyes. What man doesn't like cars? Especially luxury cars!
Su Ye nodded. Chen Guo stepped forward, wanting to take the suitcases from Su Hong and Li Mei. The two were stunned when they saw Chen Guo, and Su Ye hurriedly explained: "Dad, Mom, this is my bodyguard, Chen Guo. You can just give the suitcases to him."
Chen Guo forced a smile and greeted them: "Mr. Su, Mrs. Su—"
Li Mei hurriedly waved her hand and said: "Oh no, that gives me goosebumps."
Su Ye smiled and said to Chen Guo: "Just call them Uncle and Auntie. I don't have that many rules here."
Chen Guo nodded, then looked at Su Xingxing, who was staring at him curiously. His facial features softened a bit, and he revealed a smile at Su Xingxing.
While Chen Guo was loading the luggage, Li Mei hurriedly asked: "Son, how long have you had a bodyguard? Goodness, I feel a bit palpitated just looking at him."
Su Ye glanced at Chen Guo behind him: "Not long ago. Chen Guo is a veteran from the special forces, so his aura is inevitably a bit strong. You'll get used to it."
Su Hong, on the side, agreed: "You really should find a bodyguard to protect you now. In this society, the hatred of the rich is so severe, and people are under so much psychological pressure. I'm just afraid that you might encounter danger when you're out alone."
Just as Su Ye and the others got into the car, and Chen Guo was about to enter the driver's seat, he saw a girl rushing toward the car. He immediately placed his right hand behind his waist, feeling alert, and walked toward the girl. A custom-made telescopic baton was tucked there, guaranteed to grant even a sturdy man infant-like sleep with a single strike.
Stretching out his hand to block the girl, Chen Guo asked in a detached tone: "Hello, Miss, may I ask what you need?"
The young beauty brushed the hair behind her ear, revealed what she considered her sweetest smile, pointed at the Bentley, and said: "Young man, nothing really, I just wanted to get to know that handsome guy."
Upon hearing this, Chen Guo turned and walked toward the driver's seat, leaving behind a sentence: "Our boss doesn't want to know you. Please respect yourself and do not disturb us."
Watching the car start and drive away, the young beauty couldn't help but stamp her foot and curse in a low voice: "What a turn-off."
