Chapter 227 Rushing to the Magic City

Chapter 227 Rushing to the Magic City
Xinlu is located in the south, and usually only sees snowflakes around the New Year.

Since the Spring Festival came late this year, he usually returned to China selectively, but this time, the experience of rebirth made him especially want to come back and take a look.

As the school starts day by day, he plans to return directly to Australia.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the first snow of the New Year fell quietly. The white snowflakes covered the entire Xinlu City like elves, making this Jiangnan city dressed in silver and look exceptionally charming.

Chen Xi stood in front of the window, gazing at the familiar yet unfamiliar land covered with snow, with inexplicable emotions surging in his heart.

"Son, I have packed your luggage. I will have someone drive you to the Magic City. You can accompany Shanshan back to Xi Village first."

"Got it. Remember to run the company well and follow the steps I set. If you don't understand, ask Huajing."

"Okay, okay, stop talking so much, give me a kiss before you leave."

Chen Caiyue hugged her son, kissed him on the face, and then told the driver to put his luggage into the car.

Dongdong arrived in Shanghai early because his home was too far away.

After he learned that Chen Xi planned to go to Xi Village first, he had to embark on the journey to Mo Village alone.

Although he had to travel alone, Dongdong did not feel lonely or depressed.

Instead, he was busy communicating with the flight attendant via text message.

The two had never met each other, and the flight attendant thought the person on the other end of the phone was the handsome guy from before.

"Hey, let's meet at the hotel later. I'll take a shower first, hehe." Dongdong sent an address to the flight attendant, then took off his clothes and went into the bathroom.

"Chen Xi, please take care of Shanshan along the way."

"Uncle, aunt, don't worry!"

At the door of Zhao Lingshan's home, Chen Xi placed her luggage in the trunk, and then began to say goodbye to her parents.

"It's so cold~ I need a hug."

"Oh, there are still people here!"

As soon as Zhao Lingshan got in the car, she hugged Chen Xi tightly and kept snuggling in his arms.

Uncle Li, who was sitting in the front driver's seat, noticed this and couldn't help but laugh secretly.

This laughter made Chen Xi feel very embarrassed. He looked at Uncle Li a little bit at a loss, then lowered his head to look at Zhao Lingshan in his arms.

"What are you afraid of? It was like this when we were kids. Uncle Li has seen it before." Zhao Lingshan pouted and spoke in dissatisfaction.

Seeing this, Chen Xi had no choice but to let her go.

Because the ground was covered with snow, the car was not moving fast.

The wind outside the car was freezing cold.

The heating in the car was really strong. After Chen Xi and Zhao Lingshan chatted for a while, they snuggled up to each other and gradually fell into a deep sleep, as if in this warm little space, the cold and chaos of the outside world were all isolated.

At this time in the Xinlu TV station, the staff were very busy and the team was editing the video intensely.

"You guys are quite busy during the New Year! I originally thought it was just a simple show, but I didn't expect it to cause such a big commotion." In a spacious office of the TV station, Chen Yifeng was having a relaxed conversation with the director.

When he had just arrived, he saw the staff busy moving around the corridors and mistakenly thought that these people were there specifically to serve him.

"Um...well, it's the New Year these two days, so I'm quite busy...there are also various programs..." The station director is a middle-aged man with a slightly bald head. He looked embarrassed and explained hesitantly.

In fact, the reason why those staff members were so busy was that they were rushing to produce an important piece of news, which was personally instructed by their superiors.

However, facing the well-known entrepreneur Chen Yifeng in front of him, the director did not dare to offend him easily.

He could only deal with it vaguely, trying his best not to let Chen Yifeng notice the clues.

"My son went back to Tu'ao to study today, and I didn't see him off. You have to do your program carefully." Chen Yifeng suddenly remembered that Chen Xi was going back today, so he took out his mobile phone and sent a text message while looking at the director in front of him.

"Well, don't worry. As for the sponsorship fee..."

"I know, it's only two million! But you have to put some billboards next to it."

"Um...I didn't mention that before. I'm not ready yet!"

"It's okay, I'm ready."

"...Mr. Chen really came prepared."

"We're going abroad anyway, so it's a good idea to do some advertising."

The director was speechless by Chen Yifeng's outrageous behavior.

In the past, when we were doing variety shows, we had to charge one million to give other companies an advertisement. This time, we let them appear on the show for free and even asked for free publicity.

However, for the sponsorship fee of another event, he had no choice but to nod and agree.

Chen Yifeng was afraid of being poor before, but now that he has money, he wants fame. He appears on TV, donates money to charity, and even runs for a representative... "Dongdong~"

"Come in."

While the two were talking, there was a knock on the door. The director immediately straightened his back, assumed a majestic leadership posture, and leaned back in his chair.

A woman in a business suit walked into the office and respectfully placed a document on the table.

The director immediately picked up the document, examined it carefully, and then signed his name neatly with a wave of his hand.

After signing, he left the document on the table. The woman immediately took the document back, bowed to the director, and left the office.

"The reporters here are all quite pretty!" Chen Yifeng said jokingly.

"Haha, you can't be a reporter if you're not pretty. Mr. Chen is single now. As such an outstanding entrepreneur, how can you be without a partner? Next time, I'll ask some young reporters who want to make progress to interview you."

"Say it again, say it again."

In response to the director's words, Chen Yifeng just waved his hand and did not refuse.

When men talk, it's either about money or women, and older people like them are no exception.

Night falls especially early in winter. It was dark at around five in the afternoon.

The car stopped smoothly in front of a luxurious hotel in Shanghai.

This hotel is run by Zhao Lingshan's family. Its magnificent architecture and bright lights are particularly eye-catching in the night.

"Shanshan, wake up. We're here!"

"Ah."

"Wipe your saliva! It's all over me."

"Oh~oh~"

After the car stopped steadily, Chen Xi gently shook Zhao Lingshan, who was still sleepy beside him.

She seemed to be still immersed in a dream. When she heard Chen Xi's call, she just wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth in a daze.

Uncle Li in the front row saw this scene through the rearview mirror and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

After saying hello to Uncle Li, the two entered the hotel.

"Hello, do you need accommodation?"

"Let me do it, Missy's room is ready."

The young receptionist at the front desk had obviously just started working and didn't know Zhao Lingshan yet.

But soon, the manager came over, pushed her aside, and personally went forward to greet Zhao Lingshan.

Zhao Lingshan was somewhat surprised by the manager's respectful attitude towards her.

"Why is it just one room?"

"I'm afraid to sleep alone."

"I believe you."

Chen Xi looked at the only room card in Zhao Lingshan's hand and couldn't help but frowned. Just as he was about to continue speaking, he was grabbed by the arm and forcibly dragged to the elevator.

"Manager, was that the young lady? And that man is..." After the two left, the receptionist looked at the manager in confusion.

"Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. How were you trained? You can't ask about the privacy of guests, do you understand?"

"But... she's not a customer... she's the boss' daughter..."

"How dare you talk back."

"I'm sorry, Manager. I was wrong."

The girl quickly bent down to apologize. It was not easy for outsiders like them to find a decent and high-paying job in Shanghai, so she didn't dare to say anything more.

"Aren't you afraid of being seen by the employees and accused of bringing a man to the hotel to get a room?" Chen Xi came to the door of the room and whispered in her ear.

"What are you afraid of? I'm just here to take you to a hotel, is that not okay? I will fire anyone who dares to gossip about me!" Zhao Lingshan swiped her card and pushed open the door, her strong woman look showing again.

"Honey~ You've slept for so long on the way. Can you still sleep at night? Don't you want to do something else?" Zhao Lingshan leaned against the door, as if she had turned into Daji.

"Stop talking nonsense! Take a rest and eat something. We have to go to the airport soon! The flight is tonight, not tomorrow! Sister!" Chen Xi walked into the spacious and bright room and lit a cigarette.

He sat in a chair by the window, quietly admiring the night view outside.
