The “Nine Dragon Hot Spring Hotel” was the highest star-rated hotel in the city.
Various conference rooms were provided as many important meetings were held here.
Su Chen parked his car at the parking lot in front of the hotel.
High-end hotels were really different.
The cars in the parking lot all cost millions.
Su Chen’s car was slightly inferior in comparison.
Anyway, Su Chen took a look around.
This hotel was built at the foot of a mountain.
It was surrounded by greenery and there was a lake nearby. The scenery was beautiful.
Indeed, this hotel was worthy of five stars.
As soon as Su Chen entered the hotel lobby, he saw a big poster.
[ Summary report of the archaeological work in Ramakan Desert – Qin Dabing. ]
Su Chen followed the sign.
Soon, he arrived at the second floor where the lecture was being held.
People were already leaving the hall one after another.
It was obvious that Professor Qin had finished his lecture.
Luckily, Su Chen still had some time left.
Professor Qin should not have left yet.
As he looked around the corner, Su Chen saw a middle-aged man standing near the door.
He approached him and the man was undeniably Professor Qin Dabing.
Although Professor Qin was wearing glasses, his features were barely concealed.
He looked very similar to the middle-aged man that Su Chen had seen in the steamed bun shop.
They were about the same height, had the same face shape, and same eyes.
Even the position of their dimples was the same.
At the moment, only Professor Qin was left in the lecture hall.
He was anxiously talking to someone on the phone.
His forehead was covered in sweat.
Su Chen wondered why he was so nervous.
“The sandstorm will pass tomorrow. There won’t be any danger. By the way, the deposit to rent a plane was paid. We’re setting off tomorrow. You have to come!”
Professor Qin was practically pleading.
“If there was another way, I wouldn’t waste my time talking with you. Not just anyone would be willing to fly a plane to that desert. We spent a lot of money to hire you because you’re experienced. Please, be the pilot for this trip. Everything is ready. I’ve even announced that I’ll be going there to do scientific research again.”
Professor Qin said helplessly.
“Our domestic and foreign counterparts have high hopes for me. They’re all waiting for another report of the Ramakan Desert.”
“Professor Qin, see you next week!”
A person said as he walked past Professor Qin.
This made the professor even more anxious.
“You’re seriously not going?!”
This time, Professor Qin sounded a little angry.
“I told you, the sandstorm will pass tomorrow. Everything’s fine!”
…
Professor Qin continued to speak a little longer on the phone.
In the end, he said, “Alright.”
Then, he hung up the phone while looking dejected.
Su Chen could tell from Professor Qin’s expression that the other party probably did not agree to his request.
Based on his conversation, Professor Qin was probably going to the desert tomorrow since he was arranging it.
It most likely had something to do with the sunken ship.
The person on the end of the phone was a pilot that the professor had hired for this expedition.
However, he got scared of the sandstorm and refused to go in the end.
Thus, Professor Qin was in a dilemma
He had spread the news of the expedition to the entire industry.
Unfortunately, the highly-paid pilot quit at the last minute.
Professor Qin had landed himself in hot water.
It was very difficult to find another experienced pilot in such a short time.
Furthermore, most people would be put off by the sandstorm.
Needless to say, Su Chen was the best candidate for this task.
After all, he had obtained top-notch piloting skills from saving a crashing plane.
In other words, he had the qualifications even though he never tested out his skill before.
Su Chen trusted the system.
His skill would not fail him.
Meanwhile, Professor Qin was about to leave the lecture hall while looking depressed.
“Professor Qin, can I have a word with you?”
Su Qin called out.
This stunned the professor.
He turned around and saw the tall and dashing young man.
“I’m busy right now. If you have any questions, I’ll answer them another time.”
Professor Qin said impatiently.
He thought Su Chen was a student from Beiping University and was too frustrated to entertain him.
“Professor Qin, I’m sorry. I overheard your conversation just now. I want to tell you that I have experience and can be your pilot.”
Su Chen said firmly as he looked into the professor’s eyes.
Professor Qin could not believe what he had just heard.
His eyes widened.
“Young man, I’m not in the mood to joke.”
“I’m not joking. This is my phone number. If you have made up your mind, just give me a call.”
Su Chen handed a card to the professor.
His name and phone number were written on it.
Professor Qin took the card and read it.
“Su Chen?”
He was confused.
Then, he looked at the young man again.

It did not look like he was joking at all.
Professor Qin did not say anything. He put away the card and left the lecture hall.
Su Chen followed suit and drove back to the city.
He stopped at a store downtown to buy some gears that were needed to explore a desert.
‘Professor Qin will definitely call me tonight!’
