Chapter: 4243

Xiāo Chu Rān left shortly after, when Cù Qiū Yí's phone call suddenly came through, asking eagerly: "Yè Chén, when are you leaving? The helicopter is already ready and can take me to the hotel to pick you up at any time."

Yè Chén looked at the time and said: "Don't be in such a hurry. If you have something to do, go ahead. I'll head back around noon too."

Cù Qiū Yí hurriedly said: "How could I not be in a hurry? I've already booked a table for lunch and waited for you to come with me!"

Yè Chén asked in surprise: "Little sister, don't you have work to attend to during the day?"

Cù Qiū Yí smiled and said: "I've got my schedule clear for today. I'll meet up with you at noon for lunch, and then we can go around the city together. The hotel room is already booked."

As she spoke, Cù Qiū Yí giggled and said to Yè Chén: "Brother, why don't you get ready now? I'll have the helicopter wait for you on the rooftop helipad in 10 minutes."

Yè Chén could only agree and said: "Alright, I'll change into some clothes."

Ten minutes later, a mid-sized helicopter from a commercial airline landed on the rooftop helipad of the hotel.

After Yè Chén boarded the helicopter, it took off quickly and headed towards New York.

From Providence to New York, the straight-line distance is over 230 kilometers, but the helicopter only needed an hour to fly to the upper air space of New York City.

Then, the helicopter landed at a small helipad near Chinatown in New York. As soon as it touched down, a woman wearing black sunglasses walked up and said to Yè Chén: "Mr. Yè, Autumn is waiting for you at the hotel. Please follow me."

Yè Chén saw that the person who came to pick him up was Cù Qiū Yí's assistant, Chen Duoduo, so he nodded slightly and said in a low tone: "Thanks for your trouble, Duoduo."

Chen Duoduo muttered: "Mr. Yè doesn't need to be so polite."

As she finished speaking, she led Yè Chén to a parked Cadillac sedan beside the helicopter. She proactively opened the back door and said, "Mr. Yè, please get in." "Okay," Yè Chén bent down and got into the car, with Chen Duoduo sitting next to the driver.

The driver's seat was occupied by a white male, physically fit, expressionless, wearing black tactical sunglasses and a single earpiece earbud, giving off an air of professional bodyguard. After getting in, Chen Duoduo told the driver, "We can leave now." The driver nodded and drove away to a location about one kilometer outside Chinatown.

At this time, New York's Chinatown was very lively, with shops on both sides of the road bustling with business, and many pedestrians passing by. The Cadillac stopped in front of an unassuming Cantonese roast goose restaurant, where Chen Duoduo told Yè Chén, "Mr. Yè, Autumn is waiting for you inside, but due to her identity, she can't come out to meet you personally."

As he pushed open the door to this restaurant, he saw that the first floor area was roughly twenty square meters, with only four tables and a half of the space being cordoned off as a kitchen. Inside the glass room, various ingredients such as roast goose and pheasant could be seen hung up.

The entire first floor had only one young man wearing white uniform, busy brushing his phone when he saw Yè Chén come in, subconsciously saying, "Sorry, we're not open today."

As soon as this was said, Chen Duoduo also pushed the door open and spoke out, "This is a guest of Miss Gu's."

The young man quickly got up from his seat, greeting respectfully, "Ah, it seems that you are Miss Gu's honored guest. Please go upstairs, Miss Gu has been waiting for you for a long time."

Yè Chén thanked him and went upstairs, his doubts deepening in his mind.

When he arrived on the second floor, there was a rectangular table in the middle, where Autumn Gu was sitting facing the staircase.

Her eyes lit up when she saw Yè Chén approaching her, excitedly waving at him, "Yè Chén, brother!"

At this moment, an elderly man with gray hair was sitting opposite Autumn Gu, his back to Yè Chén.

Seeing Autumn Gu greeting someone behind him, he quickly stood up and turned around. JrNovels.com
