Chapter 2244: Welcome home
2:00 PM.
The flight Chen Zhaozhong was taking landed at Hong Kong International Airport on time.
At this moment, Chen Zhaozhong was sitting in a window seat, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
He had been away from Hong Kong for too long; the scenery outside the window no longer felt familiar in the slightest. The only thing that was familiar was the traditional Chinese characters that could be seen everywhere.
These traditional Chinese characters were all reminding him that after twenty years, he had finally returned to his long-lost hometown.
However, what he felt regretful about was that he was afraid he would have no chance to get reacquainted with the Hong Kong he had been away from for twenty years this time. From the moment he landed in Hong Kong, his life was probably starting its countdown.
At this time, a male flight attendant came to his side and reminded him: "Mr. Chen, according to regulations, please do not rush to get off the plane later. After other passengers have disembarked, I will personally take you and your documents and hand you over to Hong Kong Customs. I hope you can understand."
Chen Zhaozhong nodded and smiled slightly: "Okay, thank you."
Although Chen Zhaozhong was being forcibly repatriated by the United States, he was not a criminal, so there were no American police or immigration officials accompanying him on his return.
According to the American process, since it was repatriation, the repatriated person's passport information would be blacklisted, banning them from entering the United States for five, ten, or a lifetime, and then they would be directly arranged to sit on a return flight.
The rest of the matter had nothing to do with the United States.
Therefore, the US Immigration Bureau put him on the departing flight and handed him and his documents to the airline staff. The airline staff would then hand him and his documents over to Hong Kong Customs after he got off the plane, and the repatriation process would be considered complete.
After all the passengers had disembarked, the flight attendant came to Chen Zhaozhong's side again and said politely: "Mr. Chen, please come with me."
"Good." Chen Zhaozhong nodded slightly, stood up, and took down his small amount of carry-on luggage from the overhead bin.
Then, he followed the staff member off the plane.
After passing through the boarding bridge, he saw two customs officers already waiting at the end of the bridge.
The staff member took Chen Zhaozhong to the two of them, handed over Chen Zhaozhong's documents, and said: "You two, this is Mr. Chen."
One of the officers nodded and said: "Thank you for your hard work; we'll take it from here."
After saying this, he walked up to Chen Zhaozhong and said: "Are you Mr. Chen Zhaozhong?"
Chen Zhaozhong nodded lightly: "I am."
The customs officer said: "Welcome home, Mr. Chen. Please come with us to go through the customs process."
Chen Zhaozhong hurriedly asked: "Officer, may I ask what the process is?"
The customs officer explained: "Actually, it's very simple. You are only being repatriated by the United States, but you are still a citizen of Hong Kong, China. And we have already checked your situation in advance; you have no criminal record in Hong Kong and are a law-abiding citizen. So, you only need to come with us to do a routine registration, and then you can enter freely."
As he spoke, the customs officer added: "Oh, by the way, you can call your family now and have them come pick you up. We will speed up the processing, and it will be finished in at most an hour."
Chen Zhaozhong smiled slightly: "No need, let's just go through the process."
"Good." The customs officer nodded and said: "Please come with me."
At this very moment, Ye Chen and the Liu family of three had also arrived at Hong Kong International Airport.
The motorcade stopped steadily outside the arrival hall of Hong Kong Airport. Liu Jiahui said to Ye Chen, unable to hide his excitement: "Mr. Ye, Miss Fei should be arriving soon, right?"
Ye Chen checked the time and said indifferently: "About ten minutes or so."
Liu Jiahui asked with a smile: "Do you think we should wait in the car or go inside?"
Ye Chen said casually: "Let's wait inside."
After saying this, he was the first to push the door and get out of the car.
Liu Jiahui was about to get out of the car when the driver turned around and whispered: "Boss, just received news that Chen Zhaozhong has already entered customs."
"Oh, he's already arrived..." Liu Jiahui nodded and muttered: "To be honest, I really want to see what that loser looks like now... but my wife is here today, so it's better not to run into him."
The driver said hurriedly: "Mr. Ye said Miss Fei will be here in twenty minutes. After picking her up, we should be leaving. Chen Zhaozhong will probably take at least half an hour to come out. This way, the timing will be just right, and we won't run into Chen Zhaozhong."
"Good." Liu Jiahui breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Fang Jiaxin, who was sitting in the lead car, also push the door and get out, he said to the driver: "My wife doesn't know Chen Zhaozhong is back today. You all must keep your mouths shut. Before Chen Zhaozhong is finished off, don't let her hear any wind of it."
The driver nodded and said: "Boss, rest assured, we will definitely not talk nonsense."
After saying this, he added: "If that group of people acts fast, Chen Zhaozhong probably won't live past tonight, right?"
Liu Jiahui sighed: "If there are no surprises, he might not even live until dark. But the situation has changed a lot now. Originally, Master Lin of the Hong Sect was determined to take this bounty, but that Master Lin has already left Hong Kong. And I see that Hong Yuanshan of the Hong Sect definitely wouldn't dare to openly take this job now. We can only hope other gangs and hitmen in Hong Kong can finish him off today!"
As he spoke, Liu Jiahui added: "We must be fast, lest there be complications. It would be best if my wife hears his obituary before she even hears that Chen Zhaozhong is back."
The driver smiled: "Boss, don't worry. With a thirty-million-dollar bounty on the table, he absolutely won't live past tonight."
"Hmm." Liu Jiahui nodded and said: "I'm going to pick up the guest with Mr. Ye. You all wait here."
"Okay, Boss."
Liu Jiahui pushed the door and got out of the car, not knowing that Ye Chen, who was standing not far away, had heard every word of his conversation with the driver.
He walked to Ye Chen's side and said with a smile: "Mr. Ye, shall we go in now?"
Ye Chen looked at him, nodded slightly, and smiled: "Let's go in. Miss Fei should be landing in ten minutes or so."
Fang Jiaxin, who was on the side, walked up, took Liu Jiahui's arm, and said nervously in a low voice: "Jiahui, look at my outfit; is there any problem? If there's anything wrong, tell me quickly; don't let Miss Fei make a joke of me."
Liu Jiahui could actually see that she was nervous. While constantly adjusting his tie, he said to Fang Jiaxin: "There's no problem with the outfit. The main thing is that when you see Miss Fei later, you must pay close attention to your words and actions. Don't get excited and say the wrong thing."
There was actually something Liu Jiahui didn't say out loud.
Fang Jiaxin's education level was not high; she had dropped out of school after finishing high school, so her overall level of speech and behavior was relatively low and not fit for polite society, and she would often subconsciously blurt out profanities.
And Fei Kexin's resume could be found everywhere online; not only did she attend the top-tier Stanford University, but her grades were excellent, and her education level was also very high.
Therefore, what Liu Jiahui worried about most was that Fang Jiaxin wouldn't be able to control her mouth, and if she said something vulgar, it would lower Fei Kexin's impression of them.
Fang Jiaxin also knew her own shortcomings, so she nodded hurriedly and said: "When I see Miss Fei later, I will definitely speak less!" ===== CHAPTER 2245 =====
