From Wage Slave to Tycoon novel Chapter 79

Chapter 79: Chapter 79: My Limited Edition Is Different

They say Shichahai is the most beautiful place in the Imperial Capital, brimming with both ancient charm and vibrant life...

Especially on a midsummer evening... tour boats, a gentle breeze, quaint buildings, and neon lights!

Unfortunately, it was already October. The weather had turned cooler, and there were far fewer tourists out on the water.

Su Chen leaned against the railing, watching the tourists boating on the lake. Listening to their cheerful laughter, a faint smile graced his lips.

Jiang Hui, standing beside him, noticed the smile on Su Chen’s face. Thinking he wanted to try it for himself, he promptly asked, "Sir, shall we go for a boat ride on the lake as well?"

Su Chen turned and shot him an exasperated look. "Take a look at those boats. Isn’t every single one of them occupied by a man and a woman? When they do it, it’s called romance. What would you call it if we did it??"

"Uh..." Jiang Hui was rendered speechless.

’A couple boating is romance... so what do you call it when two guys go boating??’

’A bromance??’

......

After all, Shichahai was a tourist destination that had been famous for years, so its commercial facilities were very comprehensive.

After a stroll down Yandai Xiejie, Su Chen bought a variety of snacks. He would buy a little something from every stall he saw, regardless of whether it looked good or not. The main goal was simply to try a bit of everything!

After one loop, Su Chen started to lose interest. It was mainly because of the crowds; he had no time to stop and appreciate the sights before being swept along by the human tide.

He found a lamb hot pot restaurant by the edge of Shichahai, sizing it up from the entrance before heading inside.

Ever since he had that Wuzhumuqin lamb with Xiao Chen the previous night, Su Chen couldn’t stop thinking about it.

Especially those three plates they brought back last night. He’d claimed they were for Jiang Hui, but when Jiang Hui started eating, Su Chen’s craving got the better of him. He grabbed a pair of chopsticks, sat down, and ended up eating half of it himself.

Su Chen didn’t have many hobbies, but he had a particular passion for food.

Perhaps because they had arrived early and missed the dinner rush, the lamb hot pot restaurant wasn’t very crowded.

He chose a table by the window, a perfect spot to enjoy the beautiful scenery while eating hot pot.

When ordering, he made a point to ask the server where the restaurant’s lamb came from.

The server informed him that while their lamb was from Inner Mongolia, it wasn’t Wuzhumuqin lamb. Although a little disappointed, Su Chen was still curious to see how a different variety would taste.

He ordered four plates, each with a portion of half a jin.

The moment the plates arrived, Su Chen dumped an entire one into the pot.

SLURP. He shoveled a few slices of lamb into his mouth.

"Hm?" Su Chen’s brow furrowed after a few chews.

Jiang Hui noticed the change in Su Chen’s expression and quickly asked, "Sir, is there something wrong with the meat?"

"It’s nothing. Go ahead and eat." Su Chen shook his head and swallowed the lamb in his mouth.

He’d had high hopes, but the flavor was a far cry from the Wuzhumuqin lamb he’d eaten before.

It left Su Chen feeling like he was chewing on candle wax...

In the end, Su Chen only had a few bites of the four plates of lamb. The vast majority of it ended up in Jiang Hui’s stomach.

"I’ve forgotten the day, can’t recall the year, only remember being with you in a daze..."

Just as he stepped out of the hot pot restaurant, the phone in Su Chen’s pocket started to ring.

Seeing it was a call from the Imperial Capital, he answered.

"Mr. Su, hello. This is Mili, the director for Louis Vuitton in the Imperial Capital. Is now a convenient time for you?"

Hearing her introduction, Su Chen knew what this was about.

The weather was turning cooler, and realizing he didn’t have many autumn or winter clothes, Su Chen had sent a message to Emma, asking her to arrange for someone to come and custom-tailor some for him.

"Yes, it is. Just bring your people over. The location is on the north bank of Shichahai..." Su Chen gave her the address and hung up.
