Let’s eat!” Jiang Li’s arrival happened to break Si Cong free from the crowd.
Zhou Chao, Qin Fen, and the others watched Si Cong run away and couldn’t help but laugh.
“Let’s go, we should head upstairs too,” Zhou Chao turned to the others and took the lead in walking towards the upper floor.
When Zhou Chao and the others reached the dining room, they saw that the table was already filled with a variety of delicious dishes. Si Cong was already seated at the table, enjoying a piece of lamb chop.
Everyone took their seats, and Zhou Chao fetched two bottles of Domaine Romanee Conti 1945 Grand Cru from the wine cellar, handing them to the nearby service staff.
Soon, each person had a glass of wine in front of them. Zhou Chao stood up.
“Thank you all for coming today. Without further ado, let’s raise our glasses!” Everyone lifted their wine glasses and stood up.
“Cheers!” The glasses clinked, and everyone took a sip before sitting back down.
“Why are you all staring at me? Start eating, it’s not like there are any outsiders here!” Zhou Chao, who had just picked up his chopsticks, said when he noticed that the others hadn’t started eating yet.
After a satisfying meal, everyone lounged on the sofa.
Zhou Chao looked at this group of gentlemen and couldn’t help but shake his head in resignation.
“Chao, what should we do in the afternoon? Do you have any good suggestions? We can’t just sit here, especially after drinking.”
“That’s a tough question. I really don’t know where to go or what to do in the afternoon, especially since most of you have been drinking and can’t drive,” Zhou Chao admitted that he hadn’t thought about what to do in the afternoon initially.
“How about playing cards? Of course, certain people are excluded!” Qin Fen suggested.
“That works too. Certain people can just join in!” Si Cong agreed, nodding. However, his eyes carried a mischievous glint as he glanced at Zhou Chao.
“Let’s go!” Si Cong and the others took the elevator to the basement, leaving Zhou Chao and Jiang Li alone.New novel chapters are published on
Is the ‘certain person’ they’re referring to me?” Zhou Chao asked, watching their departing figures.
“It seems that way,” Jiang Li replied, her face showing an amused expression.
“Is this a disguised way of praising me, or are they mocking me?”
“They’re praising your shamelessness,” Jiang Li said with a smile, then ran upstairs.
“Really, is it so hard to give me a compliment?” Zhou Chao chuckled and walked into the kitchen.
The people sent by the property management had already left after finishing their work and would return in the late afternoon.
Zhou Chao took out several kinds of fruits from the refrigerator. In no time, two exquisite fruit platters were placed in front of him.
“These gentlemen are really living it up now. I should have known better than to invite them over for dinner. If it wasn’t for increasing popularity, I wouldn’t have gone through all this trouble,” he muttered as he complained while carrying the two fruit platters downstairs.
As soon as he arrived in the basement, he saw everyone playing mahjong at the table.
“Gentlemen, your post-dinner fruits have arrived!”
Yin Keting, who was sitting on the side watching the game, stood up quickly and walked over to Zhou Chao.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the ocean, in an office in a tali building.
“John, the boss just called and said the company has been fully acquired, which means we’ve changed owners!”
“We’ve been sold? How is that possible? Why would the boss sell the company?”
“Well, the other party has money. The boss had no choice but to sell. Right now, he’s probably enjoying himself in a seaside villa on some island with beautiful women!” Miles couldn’t help but sigh; having money was truly great!
“Do you know the name of our new boss?” John was curious about the new boss.
“Well, the boss, no, I should say the former boss, has already sent me the name and contact information. But there’s one issue: the boss is from Huaxia!”
“What’s the problem with that? Aren’t we here for the money?” They didn’t care where the new boss came from; all that mattered was whether they could find the money.
“Of course, my friend!” Miles and John both smiled, not caring at all about the new boss’s nationality.
“Shall we call our new boss?”
“Let’s wait until tonight. It’s evening there right now, and they might be sleeping. If we disturb the new boss’s peace, we might not have a good ending. As the ancient Eastern saying goes, ‘New leadership brings swift changes’ We should tread carefully!” Miles was somewhat familiar with Huaxia customs.
“Okay, I’ll follow your lead!” John nodded in agreement, as he found Miles’ reasoning sound.
Meanwhile, Zhou Chao had already laid down in bed, holding Jiang Li in his arms. They were both fast asleep.
Perhaps due to the new environment, Zhou Chao wasn’t completely comfortable. He woke up early in the morning, prepared breakfast for two, and was now enjoying the gentle morning sunlight with Jiang Li.
“The gentle breeze and the morning sunlight are so soothing,” Jiang Li lay on a lounge chair in the open-air garden, savoring the tranquility of the morning.
“It’s indeed very comfortable. So refreshing!” The fragrance of the flowers in the garden and the gentle breeze on their faces gave them a hint of drowsiness.
“Ring, ring!” A phone on the table nearby began to ring.
“Chao, it’s your phone!” Jiang Li saw that Zhou Chao wasn’t reacting and quickly called out.
“Hmm?” Zhou Chao, who had fallen asleep inadvertently, was awakened by Jiang Li’s voice.
“My phone?” Although he was a bit disappointed to be awakened so early, Zhou Chao took the phone from Jiang Li.
Looking at the contact information on the phone, Zhou Chao immediately understood that this was a call from the head of KE Law Firm.
“Hello, Boss! I’m Miles, the head of KE Law Firm,” a fluent Mandarin voice came through as soon as the call was answered.
“Hey, Miles, your Mandarin is quite good!”
“Thank you for the compliment, Boss. Do you have any instructions?”
“Not at the moment. Just continue as usual. When 1 have time, I’ll visit the White Eagle Alliance.”
“Understood, Boss. If you need anything, feel free to call anytime!” Hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Miles’ face lit up with a smile. He had anticipated this, but hearing it directly from Zhou Chao made him very happy.
“Alright, got it!” Zhou Chao had a brief conversation with him and then hung up. There was no immediate need for his phone call, so he decided to address it when necessary in the future.
“Chao, whose call was it?”
It was from a foreign company. 1 had previously acquired a law firm, and the person in charge of that firm called me.”
“Oh,” Jiang Li was considerate and didn’t press for more details. She knew that Zhou Chao wouldn’t hide anything from her, and if she asked, he would answer..
