Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
On the second morning, as the sun climbed high in the sky, Zhou Chao and Jiang Li were still fast asleep in their bed. They had spent the previous night engaged in passionate activities until well past 2 AM.
Suddenly, the urgent ringing of the phone disrupted their peaceful slumber. “Brother Chao, your phone!” Jiang Li, who had crawled out of Zhou Chao’s embrace, reached for the phone placed nearby and handed it to him. Unaware that her upper body was exposed, her fair skin was adorned with a hint of pink. “Who’s calling?” You'll discover the inception of this content at n0v@lbin★
“It’s Lin Wu’s!” Zhou Chao heard and sat up in bed, rubbing his face before taking the phone from Jiang Li.
He checked the time; it was already 11 in the morning. Without hesitation, he answered Lin Wu’s call.
“Lin Wu, what’s up?”
“Boss, the goods have arrived. We conducted a brief inspection, and there are no signs of tampering. Secretary Ye also sent someone and the goods have been transported to the warehouse we rented earlier.”
“Good job. When unloading, be extremely cautious. Also, ensure proper humidity control at the warehouse, especially during this humid season in the South.”
“Don’t worry, Boss. We’ve taken all necessary precautions, and during this time, we’ll be stationed at the warehouse.”
“Alright, keep up the good work. How’s the progress on the factory construction?”
“At present, the overall construction is nearly complete. We anticipate finishing by the end of this month. However, the office building and accommodation block might require another two weeks for renovations.” Lin Wu provided a detailed update on the construction progress.
“Alright. Keep a close eye on things. Once this hectic period is over, make sure your team gets some well-deserved rest.”
“Thank you, Boss.”
“Alright, that’s it for now.” Zhou Chao ended the call, tossing his phone beside the pillow. Jiang Li had finished freshening up and changed into casual attire. She walked out of the bathroom.
“Brother Chao, you should take a shower. 1’11 start preparing breakfast.” Observing Jiang Li’s earnest demeanor, Zhou Chao felt compelled to consider hiring a maid in the near future.
Without dwelling on it further, he pinched his brow and headed to the bathroom. The sound of running water soon filled the room.
They stayed at home until three o’clock in the afternoon. Zhou Chao checked the time and said to Jiang Li in his arms, “It’s about time. Let’s change our clothes and head out.”
“Okay!”
Both of them changed into casual attire and added a light jacket. After a quick touch-up, they left the house.
Zhuying Ear Legendary Cinema was located in the Chaoyang district, about a 30-minute drive away. On the way, they both had high expectations for the evening premiere. Jiang Li even checked some spoilers online and found it very intriguing. She didn’t forget to give Zhou Chao a rundown.
Zhou Chao drove directly into the parking lot, circling around before finding a parking spot in a corner.
“Should we go straight up or call Master Yu first?”
“I’ll call him first. We can head to the movie location directly later. There will probably be a lot of reporters outside, so let’s put these on!” Zhou Chao handed Jiang Li a mask from the armrest compartment and took one for himself.
He then took out his phone and called Yu Qian. After about five seconds, the call was answered.
“Hey, buddy, sorry for the delay. I was busy. Have you arrived?”
“No problem. I’m already in the car park. 1 just wanted to check where you are!” “We’re at the cinema. There’s a red carpet event. Are you interested in joining?” “A red carpet?” Zhou Chao glanced at Jiang Li, who quickly waved her hand in refusal.
“Master Yu, let’s skip the red carpet. I don’t like being in the spotlight. Just tell me the room number, and I’ll go there directly!”
“Okay, buddy. Maybe you’ll have to sit inside for a while.”
“No problem!”
“You can take the elevator directly to the Bl level. The screening is in VIP Hall
Xiaolong is there to receive you. You can find him when you arrive!”
“Okay, you take care of your business. I’ll figure things out on my own!” Zhou Chao ended the call, exchanged a look with Jiang Li, and then they both opened the door and went downstairs.
“Let’s go. Time to watch the movie!” With masks on, holding hands, they walked towards the elevator..
