Chapter 283: Chapter 172: How Can It Be So Coincidental

When Du Furong mentioned the Ye Group, a strange expression appeared on Si Cong’s face. After all, he knew a thing or two about the Ye Group and was naturally aware of the relationship between its young master, Ye Feng, and Su Chen.

"The Ye Group? Is it the one I’m thinking of?" Su Chen turned to ask Si Cong beside him.

Si Cong certainly understood what Su Chen meant. He nodded and said, "Mm-hmm~ It’s the one you’re thinking of—the Ye Group from Yangcheng City!"

"The Ye Group from Yangcheng City!" Qin Fen couldn’t help but exclaim when he heard the name.

He never would have imagined that a small diving club could have such a powerful backer. For a moment, his expression turned grim.

Su Zhuyun, who had been sitting not far away, trotted over and looked at Su Chen. "Xiaochen, why don’t we just let it go? If we provoke the diving club’s backer..."

Before he could finish, Si Cong interrupted him. "Uncle, just relax. Whether it’s the Qingshan Group or the Ye Group, they have to give Auntie an explanation for this!"

As he spoke, Si Cong took off his face mask. Su Zhuyun was a bit confused about why he’d taken it off. ’Does he want to show me the determined look on his face?’

Before he could figure it out, Du Furong, who was standing to the side, cried out in surprise, "The young master of Wada, Wang Si Cong!"

Hearing this, Su Zhuyun echoed, looking at Si Cong in astonishment, "The young master of Wada, Wang Si Cong?"

Although he didn’t really follow people like Si Cong, he had heard the name before—one of the country’s top second-generation heirs, the successor to the Wada Group.

Si Cong smiled and nodded at Su Zhuyun, confirming that he was indeed the young master of Wada.

For a moment, both Su Zhuyun and Du Furong wore complicated expressions. They never imagined that a figure of such stature was on such close terms with Su Zhuyun’s son.

"Dad, just relax. You don’t need to worry about this anymore!" After speaking, he turned and nodded to Du Furong, thanking her for her earlier words.

Watching the backs of Su Chen, Si Cong, and their group as they left, Su Zhuyun stood at the entrance of the guesthouse for a long while. He let out a long sigh before turning to go back inside.

"Sigh... My son has really grown up!"

At that moment, Su Zhuyun’s retreating figure looked a little lonely.

.......

"Old Su, aren’t you going to call Young Master Ye? I remember the incident with your dad last time also seemed to involve them!" Si Cong said with a slightly odd expression.

Hearing this, Su Chen’s steps faltered. Thinking about it carefully, it really did seem to be the case.

Last time, it was a foreign trade company the Ye Group had just acquired. This time, it was a subsidiary of a subsidiary under the Group.

’Could it be that our Su family and the Ye Clan are just fated to clash?’ Su Chen couldn’t help but wonder.

’If I weren’t friends with Ye Feng, wouldn’t that make him the final villain boss from a novel? Come to think of it, his family background fits that role perfectly!’

"This is one hell of a coincidence. You give Ye Feng a call and tell him." There were two reasons Su Chen didn’t make the call himself.

First, if he made the call, it would have sounded like he was calling to hold them accountable.

Second, it was to give Si Cong an opportunity, letting Ye Feng owe him a small favor and strengthening their relationship.

Although Si Cong and Ye Feng had met before in the Imperial Capital, it was through Su Chen and Xiao Chen. At most, they were merely acquaintances; you couldn’t say their relationship was good.

This was a perfect opportunity for Si Cong to get on Ye Feng’s radar.

Even though Si Cong was one of the country’s top second-generation heirs, he was still a notch below a figure like Ye Feng.

The two didn’t hide their conversation from Qin Fen, so he heard everything.

"You two are really something else, huh? Were you just enjoying the show while I made a fool of myself earlier?" Qin Fen looked at Su Chen and Si Cong with a resentful gaze.

He never would have imagined that both Su Chen and Si Cong knew someone from the Ye Group, and from Su Chen’s tone, their relationship seemed to be quite good.

Thinking about his behavior just now, Qin Fen felt a crushing sense of social suicide.

"No way. I was surprised too, just not as obviously as you were!" Si Cong said, slinging an arm around Qin Fen’s shoulder.

Qin Fen looked at Si Cong’s dead-serious expression and ultimately chose to believe him.

The diving club wasn’t near the pier where Su Chen and his group had arrived on the island, but on the other side of West Island. This was mainly because the environment there was better than by the pier—the water was bluer, and the seabed was rich with coral and various types of fish.

It would have taken at least twenty to thirty minutes to walk. Fortunately, they came across the tour buggy from when they’d first arrived on the island and decisively flagged it down with a cash offensive.

In the meantime, Si Cong called Ye Feng. Coincidentally, Ye Feng was also vacationing in Sanya and said he had brought his girlfriend over for fun.

When he heard about the situation, Ye Feng had initially thought about calling directly to deal with the person responsible. However, he then considered that Su Chen had personally shown up, so he had to let him handle it himself; he couldn’t overstep his bounds.

He just said he’d be at West Island in half an hour at most before hastily hanging up.

Soon, Su Chen and his group arrived at the beach where the diving club was located. A single glance revealed quite a few people waiting to go out to sea.

"Deep Blue Diving Club."

Su Chen glanced at the club’s sign, then led the group inside with a swagger.

"Welcome to the Deep Blue Diving Club, how may I... help you!" The young woman at the club’s counter looked up to see a huge crowd of people filing in.
