Zhou Chao was about to speak when his phone rang in his pocket. He took it out and saw that it was a call from Si Cong. He nodded to Zhou Haojie and walked aside to answer.

“Hello, what’s up, Si Cong?” Zhou Chao asked.

“You said you were returning. It’s been a while now. Why haven’t you made any moves? We’re all waiting for you to come back so we can have fun together!”

Si Cong’s voice carried a hint of a different vibe, and Zhou Chao chuckled as he replied, “I’m already back since a few days ago.”

“Really? Young Master Zhou, you come back and don’t even give us a call. Are you worried we’ll spill the beans to your wife?” Si Cong joked.

“Stop teasing, my wife is with me now. I came back because my grandfather is celebrating his 8oth birthday in Fog City these days. I originally planned to call you guys after things settled down here, but you beat me to it.”

“Young Master Zhou, is your grandfather’s birthday banquet a family event?” Si Cong inquired.

Zhou Chao replied irritably, “Isn’t that obvious? If it wasn’t a family event, would I have rushed back from a thousand miles away in Russia?”

“Wow, you didn’t even bother to give us a call about such an important matter. So, you’re in your hometown in Fuzhou now?”

“Yeah, in a small town below Fuzhou. Planning to come over? I was afraid you’d arrive after the banquet’s over.” Zhou Chao teased.

“I see. Young Master Zhou, I’ve got something important here, I’ll hang up now!” Si Cong quickly ended the call.

Just the cash flow Jiang Li currently controls was enough to rival a Fortune Global 500 conglomerate. That should be considered wealthy, right?

Naturally, they kept this information to themselves. If they were to talk about it openly, nobody would believe them. After all, having that much money would essentially make them the wealthiest people in the country!

“Hehe, big brother, Happy New Year!” Zhou Qi looked at Zhou Chao with a flattering expression, her hands rubbing together excitedly.

“Happy New Year?” How could Zhou Chao not be baffled by this? It was still several months away from the New Year, and they were already giving New Year’s greetings?

Zhou Hao and Zhou Fei beside her followed suit, taking out their phones and opening their payment codes from their pockets. They went through the motions smoothly, as if they were well-practiced.

Seeing the three pairs of expectant eyes, Zhou Chao shook his head with a smile and scanned two thousand each to the three of them.

As the notification sounds of the incoming money rang, they all smiled, their eyes squinting with joy as they stood up and thanked, “Thank you for the red envelope, big brother.”

“Alright, alright, sit down, everyone.” Zhou Chao quickly waved his hand, signaling them to sit.

As for why he only gave each of them two thousand, Zhou Chao had his own considerations. It was clear that Zhou Hao and the others weren’t asking for red envelopes for the money; they were just in it for the fun.

The three of them sat down with smiles, especially Zhou Qi, who said happily, “I’ve been longing for a pair of shoes for so long, and now I can finally buy them. Before this, I even begged Dad to buy them for me, but he refused.” “Hehe, I can finally buy a few sets of clothes too,” Zhou Fei chimed in.

Seeing the joy on his two sisters’ faces, Zhou Chao finally felt the warmth of home, the bond between siblings.

Time passed slowly as they chatted, and soon it was half past eleven.

At this time, Third Uncle came upstairs, still loudly calling Zhou Chao’s name..
