Chapter 972: Chapter 342: Helicopter to the Great Wall to Pick Up Yang Chen (Part 4)

Kang Wencai quickly ran over with a smile and bowed, asking, "Mr. Yang, what are your instructions?"

Yang Chen: "Move her away, don’t block my way."

Kang Wencai nodded and hurriedly moved Zhang Huiwen aside.

Zhang Huiwen struggled while saying, "Mr. Yang, you are the most perfect Prince Charming in my heart. You completely match my criteria for a partner. Give me a chance, let’s go on a few dates and get to know each other. Is that okay?"

Yang Chen walked away without looking back, leaving Zhang Huiwen and Kang Wencai pulling and tugging in the corridor.

The woman who dumped her boyfriend just because someone else has a villa, whoever gets involved with her is a fool.

Yang Chen returned to the hotel room, where Li Xiuyan was watching a movie.

"Oppa, you’re back! What are you planning to do now, have a meal?" Li Xiuyan asked.

Yang Chen nodded and said, "It’s not even eleven yet, what to eat. I’m going to change into sportswear and climb the Great Wall."

Li Xiuyan quickly turned off the TV and said, "I want to go too! I’ve heard about the Great Wall but haven’t been there yet. Oppa, can you take me with you? Don’t worry, I’ll remember and pay you back then."

Yang Chen: "Alright, but you have to take some photos for me later, okay?"

Li Xiuyan: "Hehe... No problem!"

After saying that, she ran into the room and came out wearing sportswear as well.

Then the two of them set off together for the Great Wall.

"Oppa, what kind of work do you do? You can afford such an expensive room, how come you drive a car of a brand I don’t recognize?" Li Xiuyan asked.

Yang Chen: "My job is a ride-hailing driver, occasionally dabbling in investments and such."

Li Xiuyan: "Oh, so that’s how it is. I was wondering how you could afford the monthly payments at SKP and stay in a seven-star hotel presidential suite that costs hundreds of thousands a night, yet drive a car I don’t recognize."

Quickly, the two of them arrived at the Great Wall.

After a simple lunch outside the scenic area, they bought tickets and went up the Great Wall.

Today there were indeed many people climbing the Great Wall, and although it wasn’t as packed as during the golden week, it was almost impossible to stretch out their arms.

Yang Chen had been here once with his parents when he was very young, and this was his second time.

It was Li Xiuyan’s first time here, so she was very impressed by the majestic Great Wall.

"Oppa, what was the Great Wall built for? Why did your ancient people in Dragon Country build it in such rugged mountains?" Li Xiuyan asked.

Yang Chen: "During the Warring States period, the Great Wall was built to resist the Xiongnu. Later dynasties continued to build it, especially the Ming Dynasty, which greatly extended the ancient wall to fend off Mongolian cavalry. Overall, it was to resist the northern nomads."

Li Xiuyan: "Oh, why use this kind of defense? Is it because you couldn’t defeat them?"

Yang Chen: "It’s not that we couldn’t defeat them, it’s just not cost-effective. The northern nomadic tribes were nomadic, and while we could definitely defeat them if we used the whole country’s strength, they would come back after a period. Huo Qubing was great at conquering, but it was still hard to guarantee peace for later generations. Building the Great Wall helped hold them back to some extent, as long as key areas were well-defended."

The two of them chatted as they toured around, and occasionally stopped to take photos.

They were originally quite happy, but when they reached Hero Slope, they found they couldn’t get down.

"He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true hero," so there’s a place called Hero Slope, and all visitors to the Great Wall come here for a look.

Everyone wants to come and take a look, which only makes the crowd grow bigger and bigger.

Li Xiuyan: "Oppa, what should we do? There are too many people. Can you hold me tight? I don’t want them to touch me."

Yang Chen: "Huh? Is that really okay?"

Li Xiuyan: "But as they brush past, I always feel like they’re taking advantage of me."

Yang Chen: "So if I hold you tight, that’s not taking advantage of you?"

Li Xiuyan: "It’s different. Being touched by someone I don’t like is being taken advantage of. But being touched by someone I like isn’t. I think you’re handsome, kind, and I really like you. So holding me tight doesn’t count as taking advantage."

Saying this, she opened up Yang Chen’s down jacket and, backing up against him, wrapped herself in it, then let him encircle her with his arms to protect her from being touched by others.

If Korea folks saw this, wouldn’t they be infuriated?

Their Little Princess was in Yang Chen’s arms.

Those going up and those coming down weren’t giving way, making the area more crowded.

Yang Chen didn’t mind waiting a bit longer, but more people meant higher risks.

If someone was pushed down or a stampede occurred, despite Yang Chen’s great abilities, he couldn’t do much in such a crowded state.

So Yang Chen said, "Hey sis, get my phone for me."

Li Xiuyan nodded and quickly took Yang Chen’s phone out of the pocket of the down jacket and handed it to him.

Yang Chen opened WeChat and sent his location to Qiu Yuhong.

"I’m currently at Badaling Great Wall’s Hero Slope, too many people, can’t get down. Have the Beijing Branch send a helicopter to pick me up immediately. There are two of us, including another girl with me. Hurry up, it’s so crowded here that even typing is tough."

Qiu Yuhong received the message and immediately replied.

"Got it! Arranging now!"

To launch a helicopter, you need to prepare several hours in advance.

But if we go by the usual procedures now, it clearly won’t make it.

At this time, Shield Security Group’s strong connections were needed. Qiu Yuhong personally made calls to coordinate with relevant departments, and ten minutes later, a helicopter from Shield Security Group’s Beijing Branch was on its way straight to Hero Slope.

On-site.

"Hey, stop pushing! People are about to be squeezed out and fall to their death."

"Those at the bottom stop coming up! It’s already this crowded, why are you still pushing upwards?"

"Damn! Easier said than done, you’ve already had a look, and we climbed for over two hours to get here. Just because you want to go down, we need to go back? That’s not fair!"

"Yeah! Your time is valuable, but isn’t ours? It wasn’t easy to get here, and you say we should go down just like that?"

...

Sure enough, the visitors going up and going down started arguing.

If someone loses their temper and starts a fight, it’s going to be a disaster, and visitors standing by the wall might be jostled off and fall dangerously.

As the tourists were complaining and moaning, an SD-branded helicopter flew over.

Everyone looked up at it.

"What’s the helicopter doing here?"

"Is it picking someone up?"

"Maybe it’s the TV station coming to shoot a video."

...

As everyone was speculating, Yang Chen took off his black down jacket, waving it high in the air to attract the pilot’s attention.

The co-pilot then confirmed through binoculars that it was Yang Chen before lowering the ladder.

Yang Chen picked up Li Xiuyan and said, "I’ll place you on the wall, then I’ll grab the ladder, and you climb up. You can climb this kind of ladder, right?"

Li Xiuyan: "Yes! My family has a helicopter, and I’ve practiced."

Great, Yang Chen was worried she might not dare to climb.

Yang Chen placed her on the wall and then pulled the ladder down, and Li Xiuyan climbed the ladder into the helicopter.

The tourists were stunned, is this even possible?

Is this how they’re going to extract the two of them from here?

The wealthy truly have all kinds of solutions!

"Bro, who are you guys? You even have a helicopter picking you up!"

"Yeah! Which rich dad do you have?"

"This is too extravagant! Can’t get down, so you just call a helicopter. The life of the rich is really simple and straightforward."

...

Yang Chen smiled and said, "I’m just a ride-hailing driver, this young lady here is quite impressive, she’s like the daughter of some big group CEO in Korea. She called the helicopter, I’m just tagging along. Folks, I’ll be off, you wait a bit longer."

With the help of some kind-hearted bystanders, Yang Chen climbed into the helicopter, and then waved at the tourists below as the helicopter tilted, turned, and flew away.

Li Xiuyan clearly hadn’t expected Yang Chen to be able to call a helicopter, so she asked, "Oppa, who exactly are you? How could you call a helicopter?"

Yang Chen: "I invested in this company."

Li Xiuyan: "Oh, that’s how it is. Oppa, you’re really impressive. Wow, looking down from the plane, the scenery here has a unique charm."

It truly does, looking out over all the mountains.

The helicopter landed Yang Chen and Li Xiuyan on the helipad at the top of the Haiyalantis Hotel.

After climbing the Great Wall for two or three hours, both were tired and went back to the room to rest.

Not long after, Manager Ge Zhengkang personally delivered the documents of the system reward ownership to Yang Chen’s room.

Yang Chen checked them over, confirmed they were correct, and locked them in the cabinet.

The time was almost up; it was time to head to Tang Pavilion for dinner with the presidents and chairpersons of brands like BMW.
