Chapter 301: Senior Brother He

Counting the two round trips to Macau before, this is already the third time Shen Yan has flown first class.

The ticket cost 4,988 yuan.

One has to admit, there is a reason for the high price; compared to economy and business class, the service and comfort of first class are far superior.

The spacious seats, soft cushions, and high-end meal service all make one feel incredibly comfortable. Furthermore, first class provides more personal space and privacy protection, allowing passengers to better relax their bodies and minds.

Then there are the dignified and beautiful flight attendants who are very pleasing to the eye, all wearing black silk stockings and sporting long legs.

Shen Yan's seat is by the window.

Just as he lowered his head to send a message, a voice suddenly came from beside his ear.

"Junior Brother Shen?"

Shen Yan subconsciously looked up, only to see a tall young man in a suit and leather shoes standing in the aisle, looking at him in surprise, his eyes filled with a bit of uncertainty.

"Senior Brother He, what a coincidence!" Shen Yan grinned and greeted him.

"It really is a coincidence. I didn't expect to run into you here. At this time... shouldn't you be at school attending classes?"

After confirming it was the person he was familiar with, He Yichen suppressed the surprise in his heart and sat down slowly.

Shen Yan said he asked for leave to come out to handle some business; is Senior Brother He here for work?

He Yichen smiled and nodded.

At this moment, he couldn't help but speculate about Shen Yan's financial background.

For a student, flying first class abroad is a treatment not everyone can enjoy.

After a brief glance, He Yichen realized that Shen Yan was wearing Bosideng apparel; although it wasn't a top-tier luxury brand, it would still cost at least several thousand.

Since he was idle anyway, he started chatting with Shen Yan intentionally or unintentionally, and nothing opens a conversation easier than the recent situation at Hangzhou University.

"Junior Brother Shen, I imagine with your intelligence, your performance in this final exam must have been quite gratifying, right?"

"Not bad!"

"Can your GPA reach 4.7?"

"4.98!"

???

He Yichen's calm and composed expression stiffened slightly.

If he heard correctly, Shen Yan just said a GPA of 4.98; this number can only be described as terrifying.

One must know that his own best result back then was only 4.81.

Yet, even that result had already made the leaders in the school praise him endlessly and give him extremely high evaluations.

They even regarded He Yichen as the pride and rising star of the Law School.

And now, this little junior brother before him had actually achieved an astonishing GPA of 4.98. As the saying goes, a miss is as good as a mile; the further one goes, the harder it is to improve grades, and every step is a new level.

Without a doubt, Shen Yan is far more outstanding than him.

This made He Yichen unable to help but feel a desire to cherish talent, and he immediately extended an invitation: "Junior Brother Shen, you might as well consider joining Yuan Xianghe Law Firm. As a partner, I welcome you to come intern at any time so you can accumulate case experience in advance."

If it were any other law student, receiving an offer from a law firm in their freshman year would surely make them ecstatic, but Shen Yan's ambitions did not lie there.

However, one does not hit a smiling face; Shen Yan nodded and said politely, "Thank you for your regard, Senior Brother He. If I have a need, I will definitely contact you the first chance I get."

He Yichen naturally heard the implication; while feeling regretful, he did not continue to persuade him. Such a heaven-favored child usually has his own ideas, and being too nagging would only invite annoyance and produce the opposite effect.

So he changed the angle and began to chat with Shen Yan as an equal.

Four hours passed in a flash.

At 12:30 PM, the plane landed smoothly at Chiang Mai Airport.

As soon as he got off the plane, Shen Yan felt a wave of heat rushing toward him. Thailand has a tropical monsoon climate with an average annual temperature of 24—30℃; even in winter, the minimum temperature stays above 18℃.

Shen Yan took off his clothes cleanly and efficiently, then stuffed them all into his backpack.

Only a gray short-sleeved T-shirt remained, with a pair of black casual pants on his lower body.

Quite light and cool!

Walking out of the airport, He Yichen first waved at a silver-white Alphard not far away, then enthusiastically said, "Junior Brother Shen, my friend is right over there. Where are you planning to go? I can give you a lift."

Shen Yan was just about to speak.

Suddenly, a red Chevrolet stopped straight in front of them.

Immediately, the passenger window rolled down, revealing Bo Ge's rugged face.

"Hello! Brother Shen, I'm not late, am I?"

Shen Yan greeted him, then said to He Yichen, "Senior Brother He, you go ahead with your business; I have some things to attend to with my friend."

"Alright then, let's keep in touch."

Watching the vehicle drive away, He Yichen tightened his tie, his expression mixed with curiosity and surprise.

If he hadn't recognized him wrong, that was the Best Actor Bo Ge; he didn't expect Shen Yan to be involved with such a figure.

And it looked like they had a deep relationship.

This made He Yichen even more curious about Shen Yan's background.

Inside the Chevrolet.

The driver was a young man in his twenties named Ba Song, with dark skin, a flat and somewhat large nose, and thick lips, perfectly embodying the characteristics of a Thai native.

Ba Song was just as talkative as Bo Ge. During the drive, he spoke fluent Mandarin and enthusiastically introduced the local customs and culture of Thailand. Since it was the first time for both Shen Yan and Bo Ge to visit Thailand, they listened with great interest.

The most famous thing in Thailand is none other than the ladyboys.

The main reason there are so many ladyboys is that they implement a lottery system for military service. Men in the 21-30 age group must participate in a lottery every April. Drawing a red card means winning the "grand prize," while a black card means escaping the ordeal. Over ten years, it amounts to a 100% chance of being drafted.

To avoid military service, one must either become a monk at age ten, have a physical disability, or be a transgender ladyboy.

After the introduction, Shen Yan and Bo Ge sighed with emotion. By comparison, the domestic situation is more humane, as there is no mandatory military service, and the conditions and treatment are superior.

Twenty minutes passed, and the car stopped in front of a five-star hotel.

The production crew booked a presidential suite here for Shen Yan.

Of course, to save on expenses, the rest of the production crew were arranged in an ordinary hotel next door, including the director and the lead actors, with no exceptions.
