“Little one, I’ll see if you dare to tease me the next time!” After looking at Jiang Li, who was still asleep, Zhou Chao smiled. He got up from the bed and headed towards the bathroom.

Last night, after dinner at his father-in-law’s house, they returned home at 9 o’clock. Zhou Chao and Jiang Li spent several hours studying human anatomy art until well past 2 in the morning. Finally, with Jiang Li’s masterful strokes, they had completed their masterpiece.

After Zhou Chao finished showering and changed into fresh clothes, he quietly closed the bedroom door and headed downstairs.

“Mr. Zhou, are you up? Would you like some breakfast?” Aunt Wang, who was tidying up the house, greeted him as soon as he descended.

“Just make me two sunny-side-up eggs, Aunt Wang.”

“Sure!”

Zhou Chao looked around but couldn’t spot Shoufu. He figured Shoufu must have gone to find the little white Siamese cat mentioned by Aunt Wang.

As Zhou Chao lounged on the sofa, waiting for breakfast, a meow echoed from the courtyard outside.

He looked up to see Shoufu bringing in a slender white Siamese cat.

Shoufu occasionally caressed the cat, and Zhou Chao found it amusing.

After a while, Shoufu brought the Siamese cat to Zhou Chao, and it nestled on his lap, meowing as if introducing her to him.

“You little rascal, you’re bringing her home to meet the family, huh?” Zhou Chao chuckled as he picked up Shoufu, looking at the cat’s innocent expression on her large head.

After playing with the chubby orange cat for a while, Zhou Chao turned his attention to the white Siamese cat. She appeared like a quiet little princess, lying on the sofa and calmly observing him and Shoufu’s antics.

Zhou Chao reached out to pat her, but the Siamese cat moved away. However, Shoufu meowed a few times, and only then did the Siamese cat approach Zhou Chao’s hand, allowing him to stroke her.

“You little one, you’re quite clever. Follow me! Haha.” Zhou Chao put down Shoufu and headed to the area where they kept the cat treat. He grabbed a few cat treats and fed them to the two cats.

“Come eat this, and later we’ll find out where your wife lives!” Zhou Chao tore open two strips of cat treats and began feeding them left and right.

Soon, both treats were devoured, and the two cats paused.

“You two can play for a while. I’ll join you later!” Zhou Chao ruffled the heads of the two cats before heading to the dining table.

Aunt Wang had already prepared his breakfast.

“Mr. Zhou, this is the first time Shoufu has brought this white cat home. She used to just visit but never stayed over.”

“Oh,” Zhou Chao replied, a bit surprised. H thought that Shoufu often brought the cat home. He realized he should check it out later; after all, it was an important matter for Shoufu.

Thinking about it made Zhou Chao smile to himself.

“What’s wrong, Mr. Zhou?”

“Nothing, Aunt Wang. You can go about your business; you don’t need to worry about me. I’ll call you if 1 need anything.”

Wang Auntie nodded and went about her chores.

Zhou Chao quickly finished his two sunny-side-up eggs, and instead of calling Aunt Wang to wash the dishes, he did them himself.

“As far as the eye can see, it’s a distant horizon...” Just as Zhou Chao was coming out of the kitchen, his phone in his pocket rang.

“Hello, Lin Wu, have you arrived in Jingdu?”

“Please wait a moment; 1’11 inform them. Please pardon the inconvenience.”

“Mmm,” Zhou Chao nodded gently.

He could tell that this middle-aged man was probably the steward of this courtyard, and he didn’t want to overstep any boundaries by letting people in without permission, even if they appeared to be well-dressed and important.

The middle-aged man carried the Siamese cat and walked inside without even closing the gate, perhaps thinking that closing it would be disrespectful to Zhou Chao.

“Master, there are two young people outside who want to visit you. They also live in our neighborhood. It seems they are the owners of that chubby orange cat!”

The middle-aged man returned to the house and reported to a man of about sixty, who had a friendly demeanor but also a hint of dominance in his eyes.

“Oh, the owner of that mischievous chubby orange cat. I didn’t expect them to live in our neighborhood. Interesting. All Cheng, please invite them in!” As soon as he spoke, he gave off a very friendly vibe.

“Yes, Master!” Ah Cheng set down the cat he was holding and quickly walked towards the entrance.

“I apologize for the wait. Please come in, Master requests your presence!” Ah Cheng promptly opened the gate completely. Zhou Chao smiled at the gesture and led Jiang Li inside, holding her hand.

Ah Cheng then guided Zhou Chao and Jiang Li further inside.

“Uncle Ye!” Zhou Chao blurted out when he saw the middle-aged man sitting on the sofa. But he quickly realized his mistake; the two men looked somewhat similar from the side.

“Sorry, I mistook you for an elder. You two look quite alike from the side!” Zhou Chao hurriedly explained.

At this point, the middle-aged man burst into laughter.

“Haha, you didn’t make a mistake. You can call me Uncle Ye. Let me introduce myself. My last name is Ye, Ye Zhengyun. I’m the big brother of the ‘Uncle Ye’ you mentioned just now. And you must be Zhou Chao, the creative one whom my second brother mentioned. 1 didn’t expect to meet you here of all places!”

At this moment, Zhou Chao was taken aback. He hadn’t expected that the person he had spontaneously decided to visit would turn out to be someone he knew.

However, he quickly regained his composure.

“I didn’t expect it to be such a coincidence!” Zhou Chao said with a smile on his face.

“Why don’t you introduce yourselves?”

“Uncle Ye, would it be alright if I call you Big Uncle Ye instead? Just calling you

‘Uncle’ sounds a bit odd to me.”

“Sure, whatever suits you!” Ye Zhengyun replied with a faint smile.

“Big Uncle Ye, this is my wife, Jiang Li.”

“Hello, Big Uncle Ye!” Jiang Li stood up politely to greet him.

“Hello, hello! My second brother has been praising you to the skies, saying that everything about you is excellent. I’ve never heard him praise someone like this before!”

“That’s too kind of you, Big Uncle Ye. I’m really not that great. By the way, Big Uncle Ye, this is a small gift I brought. I was planning to use it as an icebreaker, but it seems unnecessary now.” Zhou Chao finally remembered the wine he was holding.

“All Cheng, take it and put it away. I heard that this young man’s gifts are always valuable!”

ii

It’s not that valuable; it’s just a bottle of red wine.” Zhou Chao didn’t have a clear sense of the wine’s value anymore, especially since he had plenty of Domaine Romanee-Conti Grand Cru left.

“Master, this gentleman’s gift is worth several million!” Ah Cheng interjected from the side. As a professional butler, he was well-versed in the value of wines.

“Leave it, this kid doesn’t care about such things!” Ye Zhengyun waved his hand and accepted the gift..
