Chapter 27

ooked at Ning Yuan: "I didn't intentionally not bring some back to share with you. It's just that Grandma Xia and Grandpa Tang are in a special situation, their rations are even less than mine..."No m...Ye Chen wasn't being particularly distant with Gu Yanzhong, he just thought that suddenly giving him a private jet was a bit extravagant.

And this isn't your ordinary, tens or hundreds of millions of dollars private jet. This is a Boeing 737 passenger plane converted into a private jet.

A Boeing 737 standard passenger jet's factory price is roughly around $100 million, but this is just a basic model. For private jets, a standard passenger jet is akin to an unfurnished house. The cost of modifying and furnishing this "shell" accounts for at least half or more of the total value.

So, just this one airplane, its value must be around 1 billion yuan.

To receive such a valuable gift on his birthday, Ye Chen was indeed feeling overwhelmed and unworthy.

Gu Yanzhong saw that he seemed a little hesitant, so he stepped forward and put his arm around his shoulders, saying in a serious tone: "Chen'er, in my heart, you are like my son. You now have your own business, and you often need to travel between all parts of the country and even the world. Having your own private plane would be very convenient for you."

Ye Chen said seriously, "Uncle Gu, actually the Ye family has a backup private jet in Jinling, which is usually enough for me. I just don't want you to spend too much."

Gu Yanzhong said with a very firm expression: "The Ye family's private jet is the Ye family's. The plane your uncle gave you is yours. Can the feeling of using your own things and using other people's things be the same Besides, your relationship with the Ye family isn't clear-cut right now. What if one day you have a falling out with your grandfather, and then you use his plane Wouldn't that put you in a lower position"

Saying that, Gu Yanzhong continued, “Why be so polite with your uncle It’s just a plane. At most, it’s worth 10 billion yuan. I’m someone who almost died once. Having so much money and nowhere to spend it is also painful.”

Lin Wanqiu on the side also hurriedly chimed in, "That's right, Chen'er. Just accept it readily. Don't make Uncle Gu feel embarrassed at his age. He's sending you a birthday present and still has to beg you to accept it."

Ye Chen, upon hearing this, immediately realized that he had indeed been a bit too forward.

The more valuable the gift, the more it shows that Uncle Gu and his wife value themselves. If they keep refusing, it will also hurt their feelings.

So he immediately nodded and said, "Thank you, Uncle Gu, thank you, Aunt Lin. From now on, I, Ye Chen, will also be someone who has a private jet!"

Gu Yanzhong burst into laughter upon hearing this, his big hand on Ye Chen's shoulder squeezed tightly. "Come on! Let's go to the hotel!" he said with a smile.

Ye Chen invited Gu Yanzhong and his wife to sit in the back seat of his BMW 760, then opened the co-pilot's door for Gu Qiuyi. Before getting in last, he instructed Chen Zekai: "Old Chen, let your car lead the way. Let's go straight to Tianxiang Mansion now."

Ye Chen had already made arrangements with Hong Wu that he would be hosting guests at Tianxiang Mansion today, so the entire mansion was closed to the public.

Hong Wu also put aside all his matters at hand and came to Tianxiang Mansion early in the morning to supervise the work.

From the overall security and service procedures of Tianxiang Mansion to every dish prepared today, including the freshness of each ingredient and whether every piece of tableware is spotless, Hong Wu had meticulously checked everything multiple times beforehand.

When Chen Zekai led Ye Chen out of the airport, he had already informed Hong Wu.

Hong Wu immediately ordered all the staff to line up and prepare a welcome in the parking lot at the entrance of Tianxiang Mansion. He also instructed many of his subordinates to guard both sides of the entrance, and demanded that they not let any outsiders in.

After all, Gu Qiu Yi, who accompanied Ye Chen, was one of the hottest stars in the country today. If her dining at Tianxiang Mansion were to be revealed, it would undoubtedly top the gossip headlines immediately. Hong Wu was extremely loyal to Ye Chen and naturally wouldn't want that to happen.

Leave no room for any loopholes or potential threats for Ye Chen.

When the convoy drove into the parking lot, Hong Wu led a group of attendants waiting at the entrance.

Ye Chen had just parked the car when he walked up first. He opened both rear doors and the co-pilot door, politely saying to Mr. and Mrs. Gu Yanzhong and Gu Qiuyi: "Welcome, our esteemed guests, to Tianxiangfu!"

He then opened the driver's door and said to Ye Chen, "Master Ye, the private rooms are all ready. Let's go in now.", going out of the city to fight.Rong Zhaonan watched the girl half-leaning on the windowsill.
