Zhou Chao and Zhou Hao quickened their steps at the mention.

When they approached, Zhou Naifu licked his face and smiled, saying, “Manager Chen, I hope you take care of them in the future. If they encounter any problems, feel free to scold them!”

Hearing this, Zhou Chao’s mouth twitched slightly. Although he knew his first uncle meant well, he still felt awkward.

Feeling a poke at his waist, Zhou Chao turned his head to see his uncle looking at him. “Why don’t you say a few flattering words to Manager Chen?”

With a hint of resignation, Zhou Chao turned to Chen and said, “Thank you for your care, Manager Chen.”

Although feeling nervous inside, Manager Chen still maintained a smile on his face. A thought flashed through his mind, “Naifu, do you mind if I have a chat with your nephew in the car?”

“Not at all, not at all. It’s his good fortune,” Zhou Naifu replied, his mouth stretched into a wide smile.

Zhou Chao followed Manager Chen into the car. The windows on both sides were raised, and even the driver was asked to step out. No one outside could see what was happening inside.

“Young Master Zhou, if there’s anything I’ve done wrong, please bear with me!” Manager Chen said respectfully, his head lowered with a hint of apprehension.

“Was it Si Cong who sent you?” Zhou Chao’s expression remained calm and unaffected.

“Yes, Young Master Zhou. This visit was rushed, and the gifts were not well prepared.”

“I knew Si Cong couldn’t be trusted. He’s obviously trying to embarrass me. I only gave a gift of two thousand, luckily my identity wasn’t exposed. Otherwise, I would have embarrassed myself.” Initially, Zhou Chao had planned to give a grand gift, but he was dissuaded by Third Aunt, who advised him not to draw too much attention to himself. That’s why he chose to conceal his identity.

Hearing this, Manager Chen felt a cold sweat soaking his back.

“In short, remember what I’m about to tell you. Zhou Hao is my cousin. I don’t want you to give him special treatment. Just give him a chance to prove himself. Do you understand what I mean?” Follow the latest novels at novelhall.com

“Got it!” Zhou Hao looked determined.

The Zhou brothers spent the afternoon in the pavilion. During this time, Zhou Chao added his three younger siblings on WeChat and instructed them not to disclose his affairs to others easily.

At one point, Zhou Qi asked somewhat spontaneously, “Can Mom and Dad know?”

Zhou Chao pondered for a while. After today’s interaction, he was quite satisfied with his uncles’ character. “If they ask, you can tell them. But ask them not to tell others to avoid unnecessary trouble.”

Having not experienced something firsthand, one could hardly understand its consequences. If others knew he was wealthy, he feared that the first thing various relatives would ask for the next day would be money. Although he wasn’t lacking in this regard, he didn’t want to deal with such a situation. If he encountered shameless people, they might infuriate him to death.

After dinner, Zhou Chao and his group didn’t linger. They returned directly to the city with Jiang Li, Third Aunt, and Uncle.

Late at night, after everyone had left, the three Zhou brothers sat together, unable to take their eyes off the pile of cash and gold jewelry on the table.

“Who do you think Manager Chen was targeting? Why did he give us so much money? I even asked Dad this afternoon, and he didn’t know. Do you think they got the wrong place?” Third Brother Zhou Naian rubbed his sparse hair and speculated.

“You’ve reminded me! I was so caught up in the excitement today that I didn’t even think about this. Second Brother, do you know anything about it?” Zhou Naifu, now realizing his oversight, regained his senses.

Second Brother Zhou Naishou also looked puzzled. “If you don’t know, how would I know?”

Just as the three of them were wearing puzzled expressions, Zhou Hao, who had been silent, spoke softly, “Dad, I know what’s going on.”

“You do?” Zhou Naifu turned to look at Zhou Hao.

“Yeah, Manager Chen and the others were all here for my big brother.”

“My big brother? You mean Zhou Chao?”

“My big brother has been doing well in Modu, and he’s friends with the young master of Yida!” Zhou Hao didn’t elaborate much, as he felt it would burden his father and uncles.

“Wow, our Zhou family has produced a real dragon! His ancestors must be proud!” The three Zhou brothers were shocked, unable to believe how successful their nephew had become!
