Chapter: 5881

The old woman surnamed Sun and named Jin Yu had been following An Chengqi for many years, with a role similar to that of the head butler.

Sun Jin Yu spoke up at this time, saying to An Chengqi, "Back to your honor, Little Master is indeed accompanying Chen Zhaogong on the plane. Their flight speed is fast, and it's expected that they will arrive in New York around 8:30 pm tonight."

"Good." An Chengqi nodded slightly and smiled, saying, "Peter has been bothering me for a few years, I don't like to intervene, but if Leaf can find him, I believe he will definitely help him get through the tough times. And he might be able to help Leaf find a way to open the mud castle."

New York time, 8:30 pm.

Leaf and Chen Zhaogong's plane landed smoothly at Kennedy Airport.

Due to the late hour, Leaf decided not to go directly to that antique shop in Queens tonight.

He knew Chen Zhaogong would definitely want to see that strong kid he had taken in, who was now running his duck rice shop. At this moment, Chen Zhaogong must have deep emotions towards the strong kid and the restaurant. Therefore, after Leaf's plane landed, he told Chen Zhaogong, "Uncle Clock, let's go to Chinatown first tonight. What time does your duck rice shop usually close?"

Chen Zhaogong didn't expect Leaf would choose to go to Chinatown first, so he quickly said, "Young master, I should accompany you with some urgent matters first. After we're done, we can take a look at the strong kid then."

Leaf smiled and said, "Uncle Clock, it's already late tonight. Two people like us getting off the plane and going straight to an antique shop is indeed suspicious. We might be noticed by someone who has an ulterior motive, and then we'll be caught as spies again. So today, we won't do anything about the antique shop. Let's go to Chinatown for dinner first, and you can also see the strong kid. Then we'll stay at the Plaza Hotel in New York tonight and go to Queens tomorrow."

Chen Zhaogong knew Leaf was making a lot of sense, but he also understood that Leaf was considering his own interests.

However, Chen Zhaogong didn't bother to argue with Leaf anymore and simply said, "Young master, my duck rice shop usually closes at 2 am."

Leaf curiously asked, "That late?"

Chen Zhaogong nodded and said, "It's mainly because the customers are mostly workers who can only finish their shifts and rest at night. That's why our business hours are a bit later. After they're all done eating, we'll close up shop."

Leaf laughed and said, "Okay, since our business hours are late, we can still squeeze in some dinner."

Chen Zhaogong said, "Then I'll call the strong kid to get him ready."

Leaf asked, "Uncle Clock, did you tell the strong kid that you're coming to America this time?"

"Not yet." Chen Zhaogong said, "This time is quite rushed, so I didn't tell him because I was also worried that there might not be enough time to see him again, and it would be better not to say anything anyway."

Leaf smiled and said, "Since that's the case, you don't need to call him either. We can just go straight there and surprise him instead."

"Alright!" Chen Zhaogong agreed readily, his expression already showing a clear expectation, and he couldn't help but tell Leaf, "Young Master, I must confess that I've always treated Strong Kid like my own son. It's been a long time since we last met, and I still miss him very much in my heart."

Leaf thoroughly understood.

Chen Zhaogong's life in America had been very difficult, with some good years earlier when he had Feng Jiaxin by his side, which made it feel like having emotional sustenance.

But after Feng Jiaxin left, he was all alone, struggling to make a living as an illegal immigrant and running a barbecue stall. Those days were indeed tough and hopeless.

Strong Kid meant more than just an adopted child or business partner to him; it was a kind of trust in life.

After leaving the airport, Leaf immediately rented a nondescript Chevrolet sedan and drove with Chen Zhaogong to Chinatown.

This time, Leaf didn't let anyone in America prepare anything for him, nor did he inform Feng Jiaxin. He tried to keep things low-key, which made it safer and easier to find some hidden clues in the city. JrNovels.com
