Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“You’re just letting Director Mi go like this?” The three of them walked through the campus in the evening, and Li Yang suddenly asked Zhou Chao.
“That’s not how I would play it. How could I let him go? But it’s not up to me; it’s up to the principal! After all, in front of so many alumni, they’re bound to handle it seriously. Otherwise, it would be an indelible stain on the principal!” Novel--Biin hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
After speaking, Zhou Chao remembered the main culprit and quickly asked Li Yang, “By the way, Big Bro, where’s Wang Hao? That guy didn’t just run away, did he?”
“Ah, don’t even get me started on that guy. Who knows where he’s gone? If 1 see him, I’ll give him a good beating!”
Li Yang’s anger flared up at the mention of Wang Hao’s name, especially since he had been playing dirty tricks behind their backs.
If it weren’t for Zhou Chao being the boss of Dragonfly Group today, he would have embarrassed himself at the alumni meeting. Who could have predicted how this whole situation would evolve?
In Zhou Chao’s mind, he was increasingly annoyed by Wang Hao, the crafty troublemaker who always attacked from behind. Sooner or later, he would reclaim his reputation!
The three of them continued to stroll leisurely through the campus pathways and soon reached the campus parking lot.
“Hey, why are there so many people here?”
For some reason, the entire parking lot was packed with people.
Zhou Chao stopped a student who was running toward the parking lot’s interior.
“Hey, what’s going on? Why are so many people gathered here? Did something happen?”
The student, stopped in his tracks by Zhou Chao, Li Yang, and Lin Wu, took a moment to catch his breath before responding, “They’re all here to see the Lamborghini Veneno and the Koenigsegg Onei. 1 heard the owners are here in the parking lot!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the student rushed into the crowd.
“Veneno? Koenigsegg? Second Bro, those are our cars, right? Who’s shameless enough to impersonate the owners?” Li Yang said, puzzled by the student’s words.
“Who knows! Let’s go check it out and find out!” Zhou Chao said, leading the way.
With their own advantages and Lin Wu’s intimidating demeanor, they quickly pushed through the thick crowd and saw what was happening inside.
“Oh my god, it’s that scoundrel!” Li Yang immediately spotted the person leaning on the Lamborghini Veneno. It was none other than Wang Hao, who had disappeared earlier.
“Big Bro, it’s like he’s delivered himself to us!” Zhou Chao chuckled as he looked at Li Yang.
“Hahaha, indeed!” Li Yang replied, then walked over to Wang Hao.
“Hey, Wang Dasha, when did you start working as a car model? Is your dad’s real estate company going bankrupt, so now you’re out here trying to make a living?” Li Yang didn’t hold back and threw back the words Wang Hao had said earlier this afternoon.
Wang Hao, who was enjoying the attention of his junior and senior schoolmates, heard the voice he least wanted to hear.
“I thought it was someone else calling me, but it’s you, Li Yang!” Wang Hao’s gaze inadvertently swept over Zhou Chao next to Li Yang. He knew that he couldn’t afford to offend him now, so he didn’t respond too harshly.
“Hehe, Master Wang, why are you leaning on the car like that? Why don’t you go inside and take a seat? Won’t your legs get tired when you keep standing out here?”
“You!” Wang Hao gritted his teeth as he looked at Li Yang as if he wanted to swallow him whole.
“Boss!”
“Yeah, when is Li Qian coming down?”
“I called her just now, and she said she’s coming down right away!”
Zhou Chao nodded in response and soon saw Jiang Li and Li Qian walking towards them, chatting along the way.
“Hubby!” Both women exclaimed in unison, and Li Qian looked surprised as she saw Jiang Li.
“You... you... you’re the boss’s wife!”
“Hehe, surprised? Pleasantly surprised?” Seeing Jiang Li’s playful demeanor, Zhou Chao immediately hugged her.
“Now that you two know each other, I won’t make any introductions. Let’s go; it’s getting late!” Zhou Chao then held Jiang Li and walked towards the Koenigsegg, leaving Li Qian, who was still a bit stunned, behind.
“Stop looking surprised and let’s go; the boss is already in the car. Why are you still standing there in a daze?” Lin Wu’s voice snapped Li Qian out of her shock, and she quickly opened the car door and got in.
“Lao Lin, why didn’t you give me a heads-up? I could have prepared myself!” Li Qian complained to Lin Wu as soon as she got into the car.
“Say what? The boss’ wife just wanted to develop some management skills through work. If others in the company find out that she works here, who knows what trouble might arise!”
Li Qian thought for a moment and realized that Lin Wu made a valid point.
“So, what should I do in the future? How should 1 face Jiang Li... I mean, the boss’s wife?”
Lin Wu glanced at her with a hint of annoyance and said, “You’re usually so smart, why are you suddenly acting dumb? Just be yourself as usual. That’s how you’ve always been, and that’s how you should continue to be, understand?”
“I understand!”
Seeing Zhou Chao start the car and drive away, Lin Wu quickly followed suit.
It took about half an hour for Zhou Chao and the others to arrive at Liang She Night Banquet, located in the Jing’an District. The restaurant had its own parking spaces, and after Zhou Chao parked the car, he saw his Veneno parked nearby.
“Let’s go, they’ve already arrived!” Zhou Chao led the way inside.
“Hello, welcome to Liang She Night Banquet. Do you have a reservation?”
“Yes, under the name Zhou. Some of our party have already arrived.”
“Mr. Zhou, please follow me.” The host led them to the private room.
When they entered the room, they saw Li Yang and Shen Lan enjoying themselves. Li Yang was leaning on Shen Lan’s belly, doing who knows what. When they noticed Zhou Chao and the others had arrived, Li Yang quickly sat up.
“You finally made it! I’ve already ordered the dishes. Waiter, please bring the food!” Li Yang quickly spoke up, trying to divert attention from the awkward moment earlier.
Zhou Chao and the others found their seats and soon, the waiters began serving the beautifully prepared dishes. Li Yang’s hungry stomach had been growling for a while, so he couldn’t help but start eating right away.
“Ahem, let’s eat!” Laughter filled the room, and after a while, the room was filled with the sound of chopsticks clinking.
After enjoying a meal for over an hour, they ordered a few more dishes because some of them were particularly delicious.
When they finally left the restaurant, their stomachs were round and full.
“Alright, everyone, let’s head back home separately!” Zhou Chao bid Li Yang and Lin Wu goodbye before taking Jiang Li with him and getting into the car. Li Yang and Lin Wu each went their own way as well..
