Fan Shengmei's eyes were bright, she didn't dare to fully believe the little earthworm's words, but she still believed in Guan Guan's words.
If this person is really as good as Guan Guan said, and is also the owner of this place, then it would be a good choice.
Guan Juer replied: "No, he is not the owner of this place. He said his parents live here, just downstairs from us."
Fan Shengmei's eyes lit up again, and she speculated, "If he doesn't live with his parents, that means he has his own house. Maybe he's really a rich son-in-law."
Qiu Yingying looked at Fan Shengmei warily and asked, "Sister Fan, you don't have any ideas, do you?"
Fan Shengmei rolled her eyes and nodded her head: "I haven't even seen what he looks like, what can I think of him? What are you thinking about?"
Qiu Yingying didn't care and said with a smile: "I didn't think about anything. Sister Fan, Guan Guan, let's go back."
The three of them opened the door with laughter and walked into their own little nest.
The three of them are from different places. Fan Shengmei has been working hard in Shanghai for many years, but still achieve nothing;
It has been two years since Qiu Yingying graduated, but she is not very smart and is a bit careless, so she has not made any name for herself.
As for Guan Juer, she had just graduated and, thanks to her parents' connections, got a job as an intern at Huaxin Securities, a joint venture foreign company that is one of the Fortune 500 companies. She was busy at work and her life was not happy.
When three unhappy women get together, they become each other's comfort and have a very good relationship.
Zhou Chen came to room 2103, took out the key and opened the door. As soon as the door opened, he saw his mother Sun Yi walking towards him.
"Xiaochen, you're back. Come and sit down. Mom only needs two more dishes before we can eat."
Sun Yi is already 59 years old this year, but she still has a head full of black hair and is in very good spirits. When she saw Zhou Chen, she was all smiles with a kind look on her face.
Zhou Chen walked to Sun Yi, put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Mom, just make anything. I like to eat anything you make. Don't tire yourself out for me."
Sun Yi rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'm not old, it's just making dinner, how tired can it be?"
"Hey, Mom, where's my dad?"
Zhou Chen smiled and changed the subject.
Sun Yi: "He's still studying the broken stove you gave him."
"Mom, that's not a broken stove, it's an incense burner, an antique." Zhou Chen explained.
Sun Yi laughed and said, "What kind of antique is this? It's just a rusty old stove. You spent tens of thousands of dollars to buy it. Isn't this a waste of money?"
Zhou Chen looked helpless: "Mom, gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times, don't look down on it, it's actually very valuable. I spent tens of thousands to buy it, but it's actually a bargain. If I sell it now, I might be able to sell it for millions."
He bought the incense burner when he was on a business trip to Yanjing and was bored while visiting Panjiayuan. He definitely got a great bargain at the time.
"Besides, if my dad likes it, I will buy it even if it costs hundreds of thousands or millions, not to mention tens of thousands."
"Did you hear that? Did you hear that, Old Sun? This is a gift from my son. Don't worry about the tens of thousands of dollars next time."
Zhou Guofu, with gray hair, walked out of the room and said to Sun Yi.
"dad."
Seeing Zhou Guofu, Zhou Chen immediately shouted.
Zhou Guofu said: "Xiaochen, next time you go to Yanjing, remember to call me, I also want to visit Panjiayuan."
He has been in Shanghai for several years. He is now a professor at a prestigious university in Shanghai. He is not very busy at ordinary times, and in his spare time, he has become fascinated by antiques.
Because he had some money in his pocket, he would often buy some antiques, but most of the time he just fooled around and rarely bought authentic items. Most of the treasures in his collection were bought for him by Zhou Chen.
It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned going to Panjiayuan, but after hearing this, Sun Yi became even angrier.
"Forget it. You have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars buying antiques in the past few years, right? But look at what you bought. I don't even want to say anything to you. Just study your knowledge. Why do you have to collect antiques? Don't you know how capable you are?"
Zhou Guofu was so angry that he blew his beard and glared: "Hey, how can you talk like that? Who said I didn't buy any good things? I did buy a lot of genuine products, those..."
"Okay, I don't have time to listen to you. I have to go cook."
Seeing Sun Yi ignoring him and walking into the kitchen, Zhou Guofu became even angrier. He pointed at her and said to Zhou Chen, "Xiaochen, look at your mother. The older she gets, the worse her temper becomes. She always controls me all the time. I just like collecting things, and I'm not doing anything bad."
Zhou Chen smiled bitterly. The old couple had a very good relationship, but as they got older, they would quarrel from time to time. He was used to it.
This is the case in many families. When they are young, men are the heads of the family, but when they get older, women gradually start to take charge. This is also the case in their family now.
"Dad, my mom is doing this for your own good."
Zhou Guofu muttered, "I didn't say she was bad. Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Come here and follow me to the study. A while ago, a friend gave me a box of tea. Can you help me check whether it's real or fake? I always feel something is wrong."
2103The area of this house is not small. In addition to two bedrooms, there is also a small study room, which is usually used by Zhou Guofu as a study and collection room.
"Could it be possible that someone sent you fake tea?"
Zhou Guofu is a professor at a prestigious university after all, and people would often give him gifts, but he almost never accepts them. He would only accept them if they were from very close friends and he couldn't refuse.
Although fake goods should not be given as gifts, most people cannot distinguish the quality of tea, so it is not easy to distinguish the real from the fake, and there is a real possibility of problems.
Zhou Guofu handed a box of beautifully packaged tea to Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen took it, opened it, picked up the tea and smelled it.
"How is it, does it taste right?"
The reason why Zhou Chen was asked to make the decision was because Zhou Guofu knew that his son liked to drink tea and was very knowledgeable in the tea ceremony, much more proficient than him.
He even started studying the tea ceremony from Zhou Chen.
"It's a little off. Let me make some tea and see how it tastes."
Then the two of them began to make tea slowly. After a while, Zhou Chen picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then frowned.
"Dad, the tea is not fake, but the price is quite different from what I told you."
Zhou Guofu slammed the table immediately: "I told you, the taste is not right, there is really something wrong with the relationship."
Despite this, he was not too angry, because he knew that the person who gave him the tea definitely did not do it on purpose, and most likely he was deceived.
"Lao Zhou, Xiao Chen, it's time to eat."
"Your mother called for dinner, let's go."
The dinner was very sumptuous, with eight dishes, which made Zhou Guofu sigh: "Son, I am really blessed by you. How can I normally eat so many dishes?"
Normally, when the two of them were at home, they would have at most two dishes and one soup. It wasn’t because they didn’t have money, but having come from that era, saving had become a habit for them.
Sun Yi immediately scolded: "Food can't stop you from eating. Our son only comes once every few days. What's wrong with me making something delicious for him? If you have any objections, you don't have to eat it."
"Eat, I won't say anything, okay."
Zhou Guofu sighed helplessly, then started drinking wine and eating again.
When he was young, Zhou Guofu didn't drink much, but as he got older, he would have a drink of wine every day, but not much, only about two taels.
Sun Yi was in a good mood as she watched Zhou Chen eating the food she cooked with big mouthfuls.
"Xiaochen, I asked you to come here today. Besides missing you and asking you to come over for dinner, I also have something to tell you."
While eating, Zhou Chen asked casually, "Mom, just tell me if you have anything to say."
Sun Yi said: "It's like this, you know Aunt Tao from our dance troupe."
"Well, I met her once. What happened to Aunt Tao?"
Sun Yi had retired a long time ago. After coming to Shanghai, she had nothing to do, so she started dancing square dance with the old ladies in the nearby community and joined a dance troupe. Aunt Tao was a member of the troupe and she had a close relationship with her.
"Aunt Tao has a niece who just graduated from abroad. I've seen her photo and she's very pretty. And since you don't have a date, we decided to let you meet. If it's possible, we can develop a relationship."
When Zhou Chen heard about a blind date, his eyes widened and his face was full of disbelief.
"No way, Mom, you want me to go on a blind date? Do you think I need a blind date?"
His head was indeed buzzing. Would he be short of women in his current status?
In the real world, he is an ordinary person and his mother urges him to get married, but in this world, he is already a top wealthy man, and yet he still wants to go on blind dates?
Sun Yi snorted, "You don't need a blind date? If you don't need a blind date, then tell me where your girlfriend is? You are already 26, almost 30, and your career is considered successful, but you still haven't found a girlfriend and are still fooling around. How can I not be anxious?"
Zhou Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Mom, getting married and finding a girlfriend depends on fate. With my current status, there is no need for me to go on blind dates."
Zhou Guofu also echoed: "Yes, Lao Sun, Xiaochen is now the chairman of the group company. It is indeed not appropriate for you to ask him to go on a blind date."
"Shut up. If you want to have grandchildren, then don't talk."
Sun Yi yelled at Zhou Guofu unceremoniously, and Zhou Guofu could only helplessly give Zhou Chen a look of "I can't help you".
Sun Yi snorted at Zhou Chen, "Don't even mention that you are the chairman of a large group or company. Even if you are the richest man in the world, he is still my son. What's the use of having more money? If you have the ability, find me a daughter-in-law and bring me a grandson?"
"I……"
"Don't talk nonsense. I've already told your Aunt Tao that you must go meet her niece this Sunday. If you dare not go, don't come back."
Zhou Chen looked helpless: "Okay, I'll go, Mom, I'll go, okay? It's just a blind date, I will definitely go."
When Sun Yi heard this, she immediately smiled with satisfaction: "That's settled then."
"It's settled. You're my mother after all. Whatever you say goes."
It’s not that he hates blind dates, but he finds it weird. With his current wealth, countless outstanding women can throw themselves at him just by giving him a pinky finger.
Blind date, to him, is such a distant word.
This is the first update. The following updates will probably be in the next evening or evening.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 406: Blind date with a strange girl, encountering Guan Qiu
Zhou Chen never expected that with his current status and position, he would be arranged to go on a blind date.
But facing his mother's orders, even though he is a big boss with tens of thousands of employees under him, he can only obey the orders obediently.
On the weekend, Zhou Chen followed his mother's orders and wore a simple white long-sleeved shirt, black and gray trousers and leather shoes.
He had already made an appointment with the blind date two days ago, and today they would meet at a coffee shop in a large shopping mall not far from the Ode to Joy community.
They also chatted a few words in the past two days, and knew that the other party was indeed a returnee girl who returned from studying in the United States, but they didn't know the specific school.
The woman's name was Hong Jing, she was twenty-seven years old, one year older than him.
Judging from the photos, he is indeed good-looking and is currently working for a foreign company, but he didn't say what he does specifically.
In order to follow his mother's orders, Zhou Chen planned to go for the meeting just to get the matter over with. He had not thought about any further developments.
Zhou Chen currently lives in the most luxurious villa area in Magic City, Tan Gong No. 6.
As the most expensive villa area in Shanghai, this villa alone cost him hundreds of millions.
We arrived at the parking lot of the villa area, where there were more than a dozen luxury cars parked, ranging from several million to tens of millions, from all major brands.
Because he was going on a blind date, Zhou Chen didn't plan to let the driver drive him there, but instead planned to drive there himself.
"It's just you."
Zhou Chen walked to a blue square car. It was a luxury car he bought last year, a Bentley Mulsanne, worth more than six million.
This car doesn't look very cool, it's square in shape, but it looks very grand, the interior space is also very large, not to mention the configuration.
After buying this Mulsanne, he only drove it two or three times.
To be precise, he has only driven most of the cars in the garage a few times.
When I go to work or on business trips, I am usually driven by a driver, either a Mercedes or a Rolls-Royce, and most of them are black.
The Mulsanne does have a sporty feel when driving. Zhou Chen drove the Mulsanne directly out of the garage and drove away from the Tan Palace villa area.
Tan Palace has a very good geographical location and is very close to Chenxing Building, so Zhou Chen lives here most of the time.
Zhou Chen drove directly to the underground parking lot of the mall. He looked at the time and saw that there were still forty minutes until the appointed time. He did not wait and took the elevator directly to the coffee shop on the first floor. He found a seat by the window and waited.
Because it is the weekend, there are a lot of people in the mall, couples, families, girlfriends...
Speaking of which, he hasn't been to such a busy shopping mall for a long time. Even when he had social events, he usually went to star-rated hotels. Occasionally, when he was in the mood, he would go to some tourist attractions, or go hiking to exercise.
Going shopping in a mall like this is more suitable when you are in love, it would be more fun.
More than ten minutes before the agreed time, Zhou Chen received a message from Hong Jing, telling her the location.
A few minutes later, he saw a woman wearing a white shirt and a light blue high-waisted pleated skirt walking towards him.
The woman was estimated to be about 1.65 meters tall. She was wearing a pair of high heels and had a tall and thin figure. This outfit showed off her figure to the fullest.
At first glance, this woman's appearance is quite good, and she is a returnee from overseas, so she can be considered quite outstanding.
When the other person came over, Zhou Chen stood up politely.
"Hello, are you Miss Hong?"
