Chapter 721: The Former “Brake” Dream! (2)
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Zhou Chao didn’t hear Lin Wu’s words. He glanced at Lin Wu beside him as he opened his eyes.
At that moment, Lin Wu came back to his senses and hastily said, “Boss, everything has been arranged. The car has been shipped to Hohhot!”
The car being shipped was none other than Zhou Chao’s super luxurious SUV, the “Karlmann King,” which had been sitting in the garage collecting dust. Originally, Zhou Chao intended to send someone to invite Yi Lao over, but later, Si Cong called and expressed a desire to go there for fun. Zhou Chao decided to personally make the trip, taking the opportunity to experience Inner Mongolia’s grassland culture.
“Alright, arrange for a direct flight to Hohhot tomorrow. Also, remember to contact Si Cong and confirm the timing!” After Zhou Chao finished speaking, he picked up the book he had been reading before.
Lin Wu nodded in response to his words, quickly stood up, grabbed his phone, and left the backyard in a hurry.
As the sky gradually darkened, Zhou Chao also returned to his senses from the sea of books. He glanced at the lights that had already been lit, stretched lazily, and headed towards the house. Just as he was about to enter, Lin Wu hurriedly emerged from the house, and the two nearly collided.
“Boss!” Lin Wu called out awkwardly.
“What’s the rush? Is something wrong?” Zhou Chao didn’t pay much attention to the previous incident and leisurely walked towards the living room with his book in hand.
With a somewhat unnatural expression, Lin Wu said, “It’s getting dark, so I just wanted to ask if you wanted to have dinner!”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Chao furrowed his brow slightly. Didn’t they have a nanny at home? Wasn’t there no need to cook at night?
Glancing towards the kitchen, he found it dark and empty. Zhou Chao instantly understood and turned to Lin Wu, asking, “Did you let the maids go home to rest?”
Looking at Zhou Chao’s increasingly dark expression, Lin Wu pretended to be calm and said, “Well, they haven’t had a break in a long time, so I decided to give them a 2-day vacation since you’ll be going on a long trip tomorrow.”
“Alright, Lin Wu, you’re the good guy here, and I, your boss, will bear the blame, huh? If this gets out, people might think I’m a heartless boss!” Zhou Chao said, kicking Lin Wu’s butt jokingly.
Lin Wu stepped back several steps with a smile, “Boss, I’m speaking on your behalf!”
With things having unfolded this way, Zhou Chao didn’t want to scold Lin Wu anymore. After a moment of contemplation, he said, “Let’s go, let’s eat out. You’re treating!”
Before Lin Wu could react, Zhou Chao headed towards the garage.
Regaining his senses, Lin Wu regretfully slapped himself on the face, “If I had known, I wouldn’t have done this. I was even thinking of treating the boss to a big meal tonight. Now, I don’t even know if my wallet can survive tonight!”
The beautiful woman sitting behind the young man saw Zhou Chao’s profile and exclaimed, “Wow~ I didn’t expect him to be such a handsome guy. What a pity...”
Zhou Chao, hearing this, didn’t mind and politely nodded in greeting.
“Is he as handsome as me?” The young man said as he tapped the handbrake, and the Ducati moved forward slightly, causing the girl behind him to cling tightly to him in fear.
“Ah~ naughty~”
The girl exclaimed, and the riders around them all laughed.
At this moment, the red light turned green, and the Ducatis roared out. Lin Wu couldn’t help but sigh, “Young people nowadays really know how to have fun. If they’re not careful, accidents can happen!”
“Haven’t you heard that when a woman rides, she’s charming, and when a knight falls, there’s no cure? But speaking of which, who doesn’t have a dream of riding a motorcycle? I even thought about going to the Isle of Man to watch the TT races before, but I never had the time!”
As Zhou Chao spoke, he felt a bit nostalgic. He used to have a dream of riding a cool racing motorcycle with a beautiful girl behind him, experiencing the thrill of braking together!
Unfortunately, life is unpredictable. Being blessed with wealth and tangled in unexpected affairs, his dreams had turned into pleasures. When the weather warmed up, he could still buy a cool motorcycle to play with.
With these thoughts flashing through his mind, Zhou Chao was brought back to reality by the sound of horns behind him. He quickly started the scooter and drove forward.
Soon, the two of them stopped at a restaurant near the roadside. Lin Wu glanced at the signboard, “Yang Yang Yang Meat Restaurant.”
“Boss, are we eating here?” Lin Wu asked, somewhat delighted.
Zhou Chao took off his helmet, tidied his hair while looking at the rearview mirror of the electric scooter, and said, “What, do you want to splurge at a Michelin three-star restaurant?”
Lin Wu chuckled awkwardly. Although he wasn’t short on money since following Zhou Chao, he didn’t have millions in his bank account. At least he had a few hundred thousand. But right now, he only had a few thousand yuan on him. Apart from sending some money back home, the rest was with his wife, Li Qian.
“Since you have bronchitis, let’s just have a simple lamb soup hot pot today!” Zhou Chao said, heading into the restaurant.
Lin Wu stood still, murmuring softly to himself, “Who said it’s bronchitis? It’s clearly loving my wife, alright!”
“Quit muttering and come in already!”
“Coming!”
