99: Chapter 99 Chen Ze's conquest complete
Su Ye and Zhao Sihan hurried towards the service desk with Chen Anle. Once the staff at the service desk learned of the situation, they dared not watch the show anymore; they immediately used the park broadcast to describe Yu Xiaoxiao's appearance and sent messages in the park group to ask staff to keep a lookout.
Ten minutes later, they finally found Yu Xiaoxiao squatting in the corner of an exhibition hall, crying.
Chen Ze and his family also rushed over in a hurry.
Only when he saw Chen Anle did Chen Ze finally put his heart at ease and let out a long sigh. This daughter of his was half his life. Especially after hearing Su Ye talk about the kidnapping incident that had just occurred, he felt lingering fear; he dared not imagine what would happen if he lost his daughter.
When Chen Anle saw her father arrive, she raised her little hand, pouted, and tears kept falling from her eyes. She called out aggrievedly: "Daddy, hold Anan."
Chen Ze, who had originally intended to scold her, felt his heart break when he saw his daughter like this. He hurriedly took Chen Anle from Su Ye's arms and comforted her in a low voice: "Alright, alright, it's okay now. Daddy is here. Don't run around anymore in the future; you almost scared Daddy to death."
While Chen Anle was being comforted, Yu Xiaoxiao on the other side was not having a good time. With her little head lowered, she was being scolded by her parents, and tears kept falling.
Just moments ago, Yu Xiaoxiao's parents had learned from the driver that it was Yu Xiaoxiao who had brought Chen Anle out. Moreover, Yu Xiaoxiao was in the second grade of elementary school, two years older than Chen Anle, so she was being scolded quite miserably.
Chen Chaoyang, who was following behind, walked over hurriedly. He glanced at the granddaughter in Chen Ze's arms, and the heavy stone in his heart finally fell. He felt a wave of dizziness, and in the end, he only managed not to fall with Yuan Xiuwen's support.
After all, he was over sixty years old and had suffered a serious illness a few months ago, from which he hadn't fully recovered. Recently, he had been anxious because of Section Chief Wan's matter, and later, he had lost his granddaughter. Now that his granddaughter was found, his mind relaxed, and naturally, all sorts of issues surfaced.
After comforting Chen Anle a few more times, Chen Ze handed her to Wang Shanshan, then looked at Su Ye with a face full of gratitude and said: "You first helped me resolve Section Chief Wan's matter, and now you've even saved my daughter. Ye-zi, from now on, as long as you ask, if I can do it, I will do it for you. If I can't do it, I will find a way to do it for you."
Su Ye hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't, Brother Ze, you're being too polite. You know this was just a coincidence, just a small favor. If you act like this, you aren't treating me like a brother."
"Besides, you guys also know that Anan is in the Theme Park; even without me, you would have been able to find her."
Chen Ze knew this was just Su Ye's comforting words. In reality, if it weren't for Su Ye, by the time they found her, who knew where the kidnapper would have taken Chen Anle? They wouldn't have been able to find her at all.
Chen Ze said solemnly: "Alright, Ye-zi, I won't say much more. Just watch how I handle things in the future."
Wang Shanshan, who was holding the crying-tired and sleeping Chen Anle, also stepped forward and said gratefully: "Little Su, from now on, treat us as your own people. Don't be polite with Brother Ze. Come visit our home more often in the future; I'll cook a few dishes for you, and you can try my cooking."
Su Ye smiled and said: "This must be Sister-in-law, right? Don't worry, Brother Ze and I hit it off very well. If I have something, I definitely won't be polite with him. I'll inevitably have to go to your home to see Anan."
Chen Ze carefully observed Su Ye and found that his eyes were open and honest; he really didn't look like he was hiding anything. If Su Ye really wanted to make some kind of request of him, now would be the best time. Just as he said, first he helped resolve the family property issue, and then he saved his daughter. As long as it wasn't an excessive request, Chen Ze would agree to it.
In an instant, a stone in Chen Ze's heart fell, and immediately he became very happy. He really hit it off with Su Ye, but if Su Ye had been helping him with utilitarian motives, he would certainly have felt a sense of disappointment on top of his gratitude. However, Su Ye did not, so Chen Ze truly accepted Su Ye as a brother.
Watching the number above Chen Ze's head suddenly change from 89 to 93, Su Ye smiled inwardly. This was the difference between doing things with utilitarian motives and helping sincerely; the former was nothing more than an exchange of interests, while the latter was about feelings.
At this time, Yu Xiaoxiao's parents also pulled the teary-eyed Yu Xiaoxiao over. "This must be Mr. Su, right? I am Xiaoxiao's father, Yu Chen. Thank you for helping us find Xiaoxiao."
Yu Xiaoxiao's father was around forty years old, wearing business attire, and was about 1.75 meters tall. However, he was a bit fat; his beer belly was comparable to a five-month pregnant woman's, and he smiled very kindly, like a Maitreya Buddha.
Su Ye extended his right hand and shook hands with Yu Chen, saying: "President Yu, you are too polite. It was just a small favor. Just like what I said to Brother Ze earlier, I am a person who likes making friends and loves helping others. I am purely warm-hearted. Even if Brother Ze and President Yu hadn't asked me, if I had seen her, I would still have helped Xiaoxiao."
Yu Chen laughed heartily and patted Su Ye on the shoulder: "Good, good. It just so happens that I, Yu Chen, also like making friends. I recognize you as a friend."
Yu Chen's wife chided from the side: "When you speak, just speak; don't be moving your hands around."
Su Ye smiled and said: "It's fine, Sister-in-law. We men are just like this. If Brother Yu were too polite, I really wouldn't be used to it."
Yu Chen also puffed out his big belly and said: "Exactly, this is the friendship between men. You woman don't understand, so speak less."
After speaking, Yu Chen remembered something and hurriedly said: "Brother, I won't say anything more. Tomorrow, tomorrow your brother will call you. I will arrange it. Today, the main thing is that the old man and old woman at home are still waiting. The two of them are not in very good health, so I didn't let them come over. I must hurry and take Xiaoxiao back to see them."
Chen Ze on the side was dissatisfied and a bit jealous. This is my brother; I haven't even said I'd arrange anything yet, and you're already arranging it? What's up with that? Do I have to be behind you? "Brother Yu, I have already agreed with my brother that I will arrange for him tomorrow." After speaking, he winked at Su Ye, meaning not to let it slip.
Su Ye looked at Chen Ze with a smile, not expecting this Brother Ze of his to be quite petty. So he nodded and said: "Alright, Brother Ze, Brother Yu also wants to thank me. How about this: you arrange the first half tomorrow, and Brother Yu arranges the second half, okay?"
Yu Chen smiled and patted Chen Ze on the shoulder: "Alright, I know you are petty. Give your brother a chance to thank Little Su tomorrow."
Chen Ze thought for a moment and said: "Alright then, I'll let you mooch a meal tomorrow."
Chen Ze and Yu Chen had been neighbors for many years. The reason the two little ones had such a good relationship was that the relationship between the adults of the two families was also not bad, so the two of them were naturally very familiar with each other.
"Alright, then it's settled. Little Su, A-Ze, I'll be leaving first. The elders at home are waiting; they won't be at ease for a moment until they see Xiaoxiao."
Su Ye smiled and said: "Otherwise, Brother Ze, let's disperse too. After all, Anan was also frightened today, and everyone is quite tired. Let's go back and rest early."
Chen Ze looked at the little person in his wife's arms and then nodded.
After a few more pleasantries, the group dispersed.
