Wang Lan walked into the office and immediately noticed the people seated on the sofa, especially Zhou Chao, who occupied the main seat. Startled, she dropped her bag when she glanced at Li Wei. Wang Lan understood that their relationship had been exposed to the boss.

“Boss!”

“Come and have a seat,” Zhou Chao said with a slight smile. He wasn’t too upset with Wang Lan, considering her pregnancy. However, when it came to Li Wei, he was furious, as he saw a lack of responsibility in him.

Wang Lan nodded and realized her bag had fallen to the floor. She hurriedly picked it up before approaching Li Wei and taking a seat beside him.

“Both of you are here. Now, tell me, how do you plan to resolve this matter?” Zhou Chao lifted a teacup and took a sip, clearing his throat.

Before Wang Lan could respond, Li Wei spoke up, “Boss, the main responsibility for this matter lies with me. 1 will resign.”

Zhou Chao nearly choked on his tea, spitting it out. He slammed the teacup on the table and angrily ordered, “Get out! Stand outside and think it over before you come back to talk to me.”

Li Wei looked bewildered, but Lin Wu quickly signaled for him to leave.

After Li Wei left, Zhou Chao sighed heavily. He looked at everyone and asked, “Am 1 someone who lacks compassion? How did 1 not realize that Li Wei is so inflexible and narrow-minded?”

Lin Wu, Wang Lan, and the others remained silent, sitting upright.

Zhou Chao glanced at Lin Wu, signaling him to wipe the spilled tea from the table. Then, he turned to Wang Lan.

“Hello, is there something important at this hour, Ling Chen?”

“Boss, there’s something important to report.” Ling Chen’s voice sounded a bit trembling.

From Ling Chen’s tone, Zhou Chao could tell that he was very excited, indicating that something significant had happened.

“What’s making you so happy? Tell me,” Zhou Chao said with a smile.

“Boss, our people at your farm near Lake Baikal have discovered a gold mine. After professional geological experts conducted surveys, it’s confirmed to be a super-large gold mine with an estimated content of 40 million ounces!” Ling Chen’s voice trembled towards the end.

Upon hearing the 40 million ounces of gold content, Zhou Chao stood up from the sofa. He asked again, “Is this information really true?”

“It’s true. I’ve already arranged for the people who discovered it, along with the geological experts, to be sent back to the country. The news hasn’t leaked yet, and only a few people know about it.”

“I see. This matter should be kept confidential for now. Those who are in the know should stay at home, and all their needs should be met. Also, the bonuses must be substantial.”

“Boss, you can rest assured. I’ve already made the arrangements.”

“Good. After I deal with things here, I’ll return as soon as possible.”

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chao noticed that Lin Wu and the others were staring at him with surprised expressions.

“Why are you all looking at me like this? Envious of my handsome looks?”

Everyone regained their composure and laughed. Lin Wu, who knew better, asked, “Boss, what good news got you so excited? Nothing before has made you react like this..”
