Chapter 351: Barbecue

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Squeak!” Zhou Chao smoothly parked the car near a barbecue restaurant.

“We’ve arrived, it’s this restaurant!”

Jiang Li looked in the direction Zhou Chao was pointing. Many people were eating barbecue and drinking by the roadside.

“Brother Chao, is this a good place?”

“It’s decent. 1 checked the online ratings just now; it’s rated 4.2, and it’s the highest-rated barbecue place nearby.”

“Okay.” Jiang Li nodded.

Then the two of them opened the car doors and headed towards the barbecue restaurant.

“Are you here for barbecue? Feel free to sit anywhere!” The owner, who appeared to be in his forties, greeted them and continued to skewer food.

Zhou Chao glanced around, finally choosing to dine outside since it was more comfortable with better ventilation.

“What do you want to eat?” Zhou Chao walked to the fridge with a basket in his hand.

“This, that, and some chicken feet. Hmm, let’s get more of this and a fish!” After a moment, Zhou Chao’s basket was filled to the brim.

“Can you finish all of this?”

Jiang Li glanced at Zhou Chao and smirked.

“It’s not just for me; there’s you too!”

Zhou Chao was speechless.

He handed the basket to the owner’s wife and grabbed two bottles of water. The two of them then headed to the small tables set up on the sidewalk.

“Wifey, do you have plans for tomorrow?”

“What’s the matter? 1 should be going to work tomorrow.”

“Tomorrow is the 2nd, it’s the weekend! You’re going to work on the weekend?” Zhou Chao looked at Jiang Li as if she was an idiot.

“Uh, tomorrow is indeed the weekend. I forgot. Well, then I’m free. What’s up?” Jiang Li quickly took out her phone and checked, confirming that it was indeed the weekend.

“Just now, the neighbor’s steward came by and invited us to their place for a visit tomorrow. I wanted to see if you’d like to join me!”

Jiang Li thought for a moment and shook her head.

“Never mind, Brother Chao, I won’t go. 1 don’t know them well, and it might be a bit awkward.”

“What’s there to be awkward about? Are you afraid they’ll eat us? It’s fine if you don’t want to go. Then, you can enjoy a lazy day at home tomorrow.”

“Okay!”

Soon, the owner’s wife brought over two large plates and one small plate of barbecue. The small plate contained the grilled fish Jiang Li had ordered.

Jiang Li, who had been hungry for a long time, picked up a skewer and started munching. Zhou Chao, on the other hand, wasn’t very hungry because he had eaten a lot of fruits and snacks while gaming earlier.

Jiang Li had a lamb skewer in her hand, but they were small portions, not the big, juicy lamb skewers. She swiftly finished more than twenty of them.

“Take your time eating; no one is competing with you!” The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

“I’m so satisfied; it’s really delicious. Let’s come here for supper in the future!” Jiang Li looked at him with hopeful eyes.

Zhou Chao nodded helplessly.

“Alright, we can come here whenever we want to eat!”

“Thank you, Brother Chao! Brother Chao, you’re great!” Jiang Li’s laughter attracted the attention of many people who were having supper.

Before long, a faint rumbling sound echoed through the street, and the people at the barbecue restaurant saw Zhou Chao and Jiang Li, who had left moments ago, disappearing into the night in a Lamborghini.

“Damn, I didn’t expect he’s a rich second-generation. He’s wearing pajamas to eat barbecue, so cool!” An unimown passerby, while skewering food, looked envious.

By the time they returned home, it was nearly two in the morning. Jiang Li had been silent throughout the way.

“What’s wrong, Wifey? Are you still thinking about what happened earlier?” Zhou Chao was also pondering. If his wife was genuinely unhappy, he would need to teach that person a lesson.

“It’s nothing. It was just a little startling at the beginning. I’m actually thinking that I haven’t been to work for half a month, and 1 have no idea what’s going on there!”

Zhou Chao smiled and rubbed Jiang Li’s head.

“Don’t worry too much. With those executives in charge, what do you have to worry about? Right now, all you need to do is freshen up and get some sleep!”

“Okay.” Jiang Li nodded and headed for the bathroom.

After they both finished freshening up and went to bed, it was already three in the morning. In less than three minutes, they both fell into a deep slumber.

The next day, in the morning.

Zhou Chao woke up close to 10:30 am and looked at Jiang Li, who was still fast asleep. He rubbed his slightly tired face and got out of bed.

He took off his pajamas and headed for the bathroom.

When Zhou Chao came out of the bathroom, he noticed that Jiang Li had already woken up.

“Why didn’t you sleep a little longer? Did I disturb you?”

“No, I woke up on my own.”

“Well, you can figure out lunch by yourself, order takeout, or cook something.”

“Don’t worry, I’m a grown-up. I can still make some food. You make it sound like I’m a child!” Jiang Li looked at Zhou Chao with disdain.

Zhou Chao walked over to Jiang Li and lifted her small head with his index finger.

“You’ll always be my little treasure!” He kissed her on the forehead.

But Jiang Li blocked his advance with her hand.

“I haven’t brushed my teeth!”

Zhou Chao burst into laughter and the more he laughed, the louder it got. He ended up falling onto the bed.

“You crack me up! 1 never thought you were so particular about these little details!”

“Of course!” Jiang Li had a somewhat smug look on her face.

Zhou Chao rubbed his face, which had become a bit red from laughing too hard, and stood up from the bed.

“I’ll head out for a bit, and I’ll be back later.”

“Okay, off you go!”

After giving Jiang Li a gentle kiss on the forehead, Zhou Chao made his way downstairs.

Just as he was about to leave, he paused.

“Should 1 bring a gift with me? It feels a bit impolite to arrive empty-handed.” After a moment of consideration, Zhou Chao decided to fetch two bottles of premium Maotai from the wine cellar. Although they were not as expensive as the previous red wine, they were still quite valuable.

Carrying the bottles of Maotai, he walked over to the neighboring villa.

“Wow, how did I never notice this before? This place has a more luxurious vibe than my own!” Zhou Chao marveled. Beneath an elegant European-style arch, there was a small wooden door that was now wide open. Several welcoming staff were standing at the entrance.

Without much thought, Zhou Chao walked towards the main entrance. As he approached the door, the butler who had previously invited him to his residence came forward.

“Mr. Zhou, you’ve arrived. Please come in.” The butler’s respectful attitude surprised the welcoming staff at the door, but they quickly regained their composure.

“No trouble at all.” Zhou Chao walked inside, and the butler followed closely.

“Master, Mr.. Zhou has arrived!”
