The landlady did not withhold any room rent and directly refunded the remaining room rent to Zhou Chao and his wife. She even escorted them to the door. It was only after Zhou Chao drove away that she turned and walked back into the guesthouse.
Hengdian Airport was not very far from Hengdian, and it took about twenty minutes to reach the airport. Zhou Chao left the car keys at the airport and, with Jiang Li, proceeded through the fast-track channel, boarding his plane directly.
Dole took delicate, small steps and arrived at the lounge area. “Boss, are we going back to Modu or Jingdu?”
Zhou Chao glanced at Jiang Li and said, “Let’s go back to Modu. Also, contact Lin Wu and arrange for a car to pick us up at the airport.”
“Understood, Boss,” Dole replied and turned towards the driver’s cabin.
After Dole left the lounge, Jiang Li looked at Zhou Chao and said, “You just want to cause trouble every day, don’t you?”
“No, I just want to spend more time with you,” Zhou Chao said with a straight face.
If Jiang Li didn’t know Zhou Chao’s nature, she might have actually believed his nonsense. She rolled her eyes at Zhou Chao and lay down on the sofa to rest.
The plane took off quickly, as there were no long queues like in civilian airports.
The distance from Hengdian to Modu wasn’t very far, and after flying for about an hour and a half, they landed at Pudong Airport.
As soon as they stepped out of the plane, they saw Lin Wu waiting for them on the tarmac, and there was also a Rolls-Royce Phantom parked nearby.
“Hey, how did you manage to bring the car in here?” Zhou Chao couldn’t help but be a little surprised.
“Boss, Director Ling noticed that your house has been empty for a while, so he selected three maids from the group’s housekeeping company for you. If you’re not comfortable with it, I can have them leave,” Lin Wu explained quickly.
Zhou Chao was a bit surprised. He didn’t expect Ling Chen to have thought of these things.
Upon entering, they saw three women in their thirties sitting at the dining table, having a meal. When they saw Zhou Chao and the others come in, they were taken aback. They hadn’t expected the boss to be back, especially during their mealtime. They quickly stood up, lowered their heads, and looked somewhat restrained.
Zhou Chao glanced at the dishes on the table. Most of them were vegetarian, with only one meat dish. It seemed that the three of them had brought these dishes from their home.
“It’s alright, no need to be nervous. Continue your meal. From now on, you don’t have to bring food from home. Just eat here. If you need any specific dishes, you can contact the property directly.”
“Thankyou, Boss,” one of the bolder maids said respectfully.
Zhou Chao nodded and asked, “What are your names?”
“Liu Zhi / Tang Qin / Zhang Juan,”
“Liu Zhi, you will be in charge and responsible for relevant matters from now on,” Zhou Chao pointed to the maid who had spoken earlier.
“Thankyou, Boss!” Liu Zhi’s attitude became even more respectful, earning envious glances from the other two maids.
Zhou Chao turned to Jiang Li and exchanged a few words with her. Jiang Li then carried their luggage and headed upstairs.
“Is there still food in the fridge?”
“Yes, Boss. Haven’t you had lunch yet? I’ll go prepare a meal right away,” Liu Zhi, who suddenly seemed more confident, replied.
“Yeah.” Seeing Zhou Chao nod, Liu Zhi quickly instructed the other two to remove their dishes and tidy up the dining table. The three of them then busily began to prepare the meal in the kitchen.
“Let’s go back after the meal,” Zhou Chao said to Lin Wu beside him.
