I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier-Chapter 378: Su Family

Hearing the news of Shen Junjie’s death, Ye Chen also felt somewhat surprised.

Although Ye Chen didn’t have much interaction with this person, his death was indeed mysterious.

Ye Chen looked coldly at He Wenlong: "He Wenlong, although we were classmates, I don’t think we had much of a friendship. Why did you specifically come to tell me Shen Junjie is dead? Don’t tell me you are the one who killed him?"

He Wenlong calmly said, "Of course, I won’t admit to that. But if you want to know the truth, you must agree to one condition. You help me retrieve something that rightfully belongs to me."

A trace of mockery flashed in Ye Chen’s eyes: "Are you threatening me? You think I would be afraid of your threats?"

"No no no..." He Wenlong waved his hands, "I don’t mean that. I just hope you, seeing as we were once classmates, can help me out."

"Classmate? Ha!" Ye Chen scoffed coldly, "Do you still deserve to be my classmate?"

He Wenlong spoke bitterly, "I know I have wronged you, but I truly need your help. As long as you agree to help, you can do whatever you wish."

A hint of scorn passed through Ye Chen’s eyes: "So what you want me to do is to help you retrieve something that was originally yours, right?"

"Yes!" He Wenlong nodded firmly.

Ye Chen snorted coldly: "I can agree to your request, but remember, from today onwards, do not bother Su Yuwei. If I find out, I won’t let you off."

"This..." He Wenlong looked embarrassed; he knew Ye Chen’s personality.

If he didn’t agree, Ye Chen would definitely refuse him.

He Wenlong sighed reluctantly and said, "Fine, since you want me to leave, I’ll leave right now."

He Wenlong was ready to leave after he finished speaking.

"Wait!" Ye Chen suddenly called him back.

He Wenlong turned around confusedly and looked at him, "What else is there?"

Ye Chen waited a moment before asking, "What exactly do you want me to do?"

"It’s simple, help me find something. It’s currently at the Su family’s place. As soon as you find it, I’ll give you an answer," He Wenlong spoke flatly.

"The Su family?" Ye Chen frowned, "Why would you have me do this?"

He Wenlong smiled mysteriously: "Because this is just a small effort for you, aren’t you quite close with Su Yuwei?"

"You..."

Ye Chen was about to say something when He Wenlong interrupted him, "Time is pressing. I don’t want to waste too much time, so it’s best you agree to my request soon."

"What exactly are you having me retrieve from the Su family?" Ye Chen asked.

"You don’t need to know that just yet. I will tell you once you have retrieved it for me."

Seeing this, Ye Chen didn’t continue asking, but instead questioned: "Why do you want it? You aren’t lacking money, what use is it to you?"

He Wenlong shook his head and said, "You don’t need to know that. Just bring it back to me, and I will contact you again."

He Wenlong didn’t explain any further and directly turned to leave, leaving behind a tall silhouette.

Watching He Wenlong’s departing figure, Ye Chen was plunged into thought. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

"You really don’t want to help me retrieve the item?"

Suddenly, Ye Chen thought of something and a smile appeared on his lips.

He Wenlong, oh He Wenlong, this time I really want to see what trick you’re playing?

...

Soon after, Su Yuwei walked into the hospital room and said to Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, the discharge procedures are all set. How are you feeling?"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "I’m fine now. I can be discharged at any time."

Upon hearing this, Su Yuwei nodded, "So, where are you planning to go?"

Ye Chen scratched his head and smiled, "I don’t know either."

Su Yuwei thought for a moment, then said to Ye Chen, "How about I take you to my place? After all, you got hurt because of me. Let me take care of you for a few days."

"Is that appropriate?" Ye Chen asked.

Su Yuwei clapped her hands and said, "What’s inappropriate about it? Come on, I’ll take you to my place right now. Your injuries still need some time to heal."

"Well... okay then!"

Su Yuwei led Ye Chen out of the hospital and into her car.

Su Yuwei drove her red Ferrari sports car, speeding all the way.

Soon, she pulled up in front of her apartment building.

Su Yuwei stopped the car, turned to Ye Chen, and said, "Here we are, get out. You’ll stay at my place tonight."

Ye Chen looked at the luxurious villa in front of him, nodded, then opened the car door and stepped out.

When Ye Chen got out of the car, Su Yuwei tossed him the keys and said, "Here, these are the keys to my place. Take them. If I’m not around, you can come over anytime."

Ye Chen caught the keys Su Yuwei threw to him and smiled, "Thank you!"

Su Yuwei waved her hand, turned around, got back into the car, and drove away.

After Su Yuwei had left, Ye Chen stood where he was, carefully observing his surroundings.

This must be an upscale neighborhood, with all sorts of amenities, excellent landscaping, and the air was filled with the faint scent of flowers; very comfortable. Even the small woods by the roadside were blooming with bright, enticing flowers.

Ye Chen started to wander around the small woods.

Just as Ye Chen entered the villa, he noticed a man in a white lab coat coming out of the villa. The man saw Ye Chen and asked, "May I ask whom you are looking for?"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Hello, I’m a friend of the owner of this house, Su Yuwei, and my name is Ye Chen."

Seeing that Ye Chen’s clothing was a blue striped shirt, the man knew that Ye Chen was no ordinary person.

Those who could appear in this neighborhood were all wealthy or noble, so he smiled politely and asked, "You are Miss Su’s friend. Would you like a cup of tea?"

"No thanks, don’t bother."

Ye Chen waved his hand, then proceeded to walk inside.

Su Yuwei drove out a red BMW sports car from her garage, then stopped next to Ye Chen, rolled down the window, and shouted, "Ye Chen, what are you standing there for? Come on in!"

Seeing this, Ye Chen smiled and then walked to the villa’s wrought-iron fence.

Su Yuwei reversed her car to the side, then got out and walked towards Ye Chen.

"We’ve run out of tea at home, only coffee is available. Make do with that for now," Su Yuwei said.

Ye Chen nodded, "Alright."

As the words fell, Su Yuwei took Ye Chen’s arm, and they entered the villa together.

The interior of the villa was stylish yet extremely cozy.

The living room walls were covered with photos, each displaying different scenery.

Among them were two pictures of Su Yuwei and a middle-aged couple, probably her parents.

Having known Su Yuwei for so long, Ye Chen had never heard her mention her parents.

It seems Su Yuwei has been lacking parental company since she was young, probably quite pitiful.

For a child like her, raised in a wealthy home yet never experiencing the joy of family, it’s hard to say whether that’s good or bad.
