The suite has two bedrooms, an open-plan living room, and a balcony with views of Beijing's nightscape.
"Beep beep~"
After swiping his card to enter the suite, Lin Chen grabbed An Rou and pinned her against the wall.
"You have to take full responsibility for the fire you started."
After saying that, he kissed her.
An Rou was particularly proactive tonight. The two kissed passionately as they walked inside, randomly pushed open the door to a room, and then fell onto the bed.
An hour later, An Rou lay in Lin Chen's arms, her body covered in sweat.
I'm hungry.
"Then I'll have the hotel send dinner up."
"Okay, then I'll go take a shower."
An Rou got up and skipped into the bathroom. Lin Chen picked up the phone on the bedside table and called the hotel front desk to order two dinners. After thinking for a moment, he added that they would be delivered in an hour.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Chen threw off the covers and rushed into the bathroom.
"Ah! How did you get in here?"
"Let's wash together to save water."
Whether water was conserved or not is unknown, but An Rou was eventually carried out of the bathroom in a princess carry by Lin Chen.
"See, it's a good thing I was in there. Your legs were so weak you almost fell over."
An Rou rolled her eyes at him: "Isn't it all because of you?"
"Ding-dong..."
Just then, the doorbell rang.
"Dinner should be here. I'll go get it."
Lin Chen put on the hotel bathrobe and went to open the door.
"Hello sir, this is your dinner reservation. Enjoy your meal."
"Thanks."
Lin Chen pushed the food cart into the room and ate with An Rou.
After finishing their meal, the two went to the living room and lay down on the sofa to watch TV.
They randomly picked a movie and started watching it.
An Rou leaned against Lin Chen's chest when she suddenly sensed something strange coming from behind her.
Turning back, she softly repeated to Lin Chen what she had said during the day: "Am I more fun, or is she?"
These words acted like a switch, instantly unleashing the immense power within Lin Chen.
This night is destined to be a sleepless one.
Snowflakes drifted down outside the window of the capital city. Inside the warm house, the figures of two people appeared and disappeared, sometimes on the sofa, sometimes in front of the glass window, sometimes in the bathtub...
They didn't fall into a deep sleep until dawn.
They slept until noon the next day before getting up and going to the hotel restaurant for breakfast—or rather, lunch.
Just then, Wang Sicong called.
"Hey, Lin Chen, are you up yet?"
"It's almost one o'clock in the afternoon, you must be up by now, you're here?"
"Okay, I'll be at the hotel soon."
"Okay, we're at the restaurant, we'll be down in a bit."
"Hey, don't come down yet. You guys wait for me in the restaurant. Hurry up and get me something to eat. I'm starving."
Five minutes later, Lin Chen stared dumbfounded at Wang Sicong, who looked like a starving ghost reincarnated.
"Brother Cong, what did you do last night? You must have used up a lot of energy."
While continuing to eat, Wang Sicong stretched out one hand and made an OK sign.
At this moment, Wang Sicong seemed to have said nothing, yet he also seemed to have said everything.
Lin Chen silently gave him a thumbs up in his heart. Three thumbs up! He's a role model for us all.
Wang Sicong finished all the food Lin Chen brought, and then ordered the restaurant to cook him a large bowl of noodles, which he also finished completely, even drinking the broth.
After letting out a long burp, Wang Sicong slumped into his chair.
"It feels good, I feel like my energy has been replenished."
Lin Chen laughed and said, "Then you should order a few oysters and a plate of stir-fried eggs with chives."
"Great idea! Hey? Lin Chen, why do you have such big dark circles under your eyes? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
"Ah, cough cough, I'm a little light sleeper. Anyway, let's go." Lin Chen changed the subject.
"Okay, let's go then."
After getting into the same Rolls-Royce Phantom from yesterday, Wang Sicong took Lin Chen and An Rou to a private estate in the capital.
"Oh, Nephew Lin, please come in, and this young lady, please come in as well."
"Hello, Uncle Wang."
"Haha, come, come, come and try the tea I brewed myself, and appreciate it."
Wang Jianlin personally brewed tea at the tea table and then handed a cup to Lin Chen and An Rou each.
Lin Chen took a sniff and said, "Hmm, the aroma of tea is wonderful; it smells like good tea."
Wang Sicong also came over, picked up a glass, and took a sip.
"Holy crap, Dad, isn't this the Longjing tea that you just bought this year for 80,000 yuan a kilogram? You never usually bring it out to entertain guests."
"Hehe, there's nothing I can do, there's just too little tea, I have to save it for myself to drink slowly."
Wang Sicong nudged Lin Chen with his shoulder.
"Lin Chen, you have quite the influence."
"You brat, if you had half of Lin Chen's skills, I'd make you tea eggs with this tea leaf. Tell me, where did you go gallivanting last night?"
"Cough cough, I wasn't fooling around. I was playing cards with Lin Chen. If you don't believe me, ask Lin Chen. He still has dark circles under his eyes."
"Uh, yes, yes, Uncle Wang, we played cards together last night."
"Lin Chen, let me tell you, I'm almost driven crazy by this son. He's a complete failure. I gave him some money to invest, and he used it all to chase after female internet celebrities. Last year, I was too ashamed to face anyone. It was only after he started Panda TV that I could make up an excuse to say that he was working on his career when people asked about it."
"Actually, Brother Cong is quite outstanding and has a good eye for investment."
Lin Chen praised Wang Sicong, but he couldn't very well say to Wang Sicong's father that his son was just a womanizer and had no real talent.
Wang Jianlin changed the subject: "Lin Chen, what are your thoughts on Wanda Plaza and similar integrated shopping malls?"
Lin Chen thought for a moment and said.
"Comprehensive shopping malls will definitely be the mainstream in the future. Commercial complexes that integrate shopping, dining and entertainment will become landmarks in every city."
Wang Jianlin's eyes lit up, then dimmed again.
It can be said that Lin Chen and he had the same idea. Unfortunately, he was already old, and his carefree son was not someone who could be groomed to take over Wanda Group.
Moreover, Wanda's overall revenue is actually declining, which is why Wang Jianlin, the richest man in China, is anxious.
"Oh, what a pity. Lin Chen, if you didn't have your own business, I really wish I could poach you to be Wanda's CEO."
"Haha, Uncle Wang, you overestimate me."
"If you can recite that summary, you're already ahead of 80% of the senior management in our group. Actually, Wanda's development has reached a bottleneck, and there are even signs of regression. I sent Sicong out to make some moves in order to find a direction for Wanda's transformation. I never expected that his two most successful investment projects, Panda TV and Heytea, were both because of you."
