No need!

Zhou Chao had just reached the doorway when he stopped in his tracks. He turned back and asked, Li Wei, ask Wang Lan if she wants to return to Jingdu. Im heading back, and 111 arrange her work while Im at it.

Ill call her over right away, Li Wei said as he dialed Wang Lans number.

Soon, Wang Lan arrived at Li Weis office.

Boss, do you need something?

I just wanted to ask if you want to come back to Jingdu. If you do, you can come with me.

Wang Lan glanced at Li Wei, and Li Wei nodded lightly. They had already discussed it last night, and Wang Lans return would allow them to prepare for the wedding in advance.

Boss, Ill go back with you. Just give me a moment to pack my things.

Zhou Chao nodded and the group left the steel plant.

Half an hour later, Zhou Chao, Lin Wu, and Wang Lan were driving to Fengtian in a rented car.

During the journey, they didnt waste much time. They had a quick lunch in a town they passed by. By the time the three of them reached the airport, it was already past one in the afternoon.

Boss, is this your plane? Wang Lan looked at the massive aircraft in disbelief.

Yes, lets get on board, Zhou Chao said, walking toward the plane. Wang Lan, still in disbelief, quickly followed.

As soon as they boarded the plane, Wang Lan couldnt help but explore like a child in a wonderland. Zhou Chao, engrossed in a book, paid no attention to her.

The plane took off quickly. Wang Lan, still exploring, started a conversation with Lin Wu. From Lin Wu, she got a rough idea of her boss true power. Even though the Fuxing Steel Plant was already one of the top five companies in the country, it was just the tip of the iceberg of her bosss business empire.

The plane landed at Jingdu Airport in no time.

You dont need a ride?

No need, Boss. Ill just take a taxi home.

Alright. Tomorrow, youll report to Huabin Golf Club. Ill inform the person in charge there.

Yes, Boss! Wang Lan said, and she left in a taxi.

Once Wang Lan was gone, Lin Wu asked, Boss, should we take a taxi home too?

Well take the Rolls-Royce from the airport parking lot. I left it there. You go ahead and drive it, and Ill wait here for you, Zhou Chao said, taking out a key from his pocket. It was the key to the Rolls-Royce he had left in the warehouse before leaving Jingdu.

In less than five minutes, Lin Wu drove the Phantom and stopped in front of Zhou Chao.

Lin Wu, while leaving, make sure Shoufu has enough cat food for a few days, Zhou Chao suddenly remembered the cat he left alone at home.

Boss, I had prepared a weeks worth of food on a timer. It should be fine.

You can ask your wife to check on him. Im a bit worried since Ive been away for so long, and theres no one at home.

Understood, Boss. 111 call Li Qian right away.

Good. Zhou Chao nodded slightly with his eyes closed. He had been reading on the plane and was feeling a bit tired.

They arrived home after about forty minutes of hurried driving.

Zhou Chao had originally planned to surprise Jiang Li, but when he entered the house, there was no one there, not even Aunt Wang.

Where has this little girl gone? Zhou Chao wondered. Looking at the time, it was not even three in the afternoon. She might have gone shopping somewhere.

He initially thought of calling to check, but then he decided against it. Everyone deserved their own privacy, after all.

Lets deal with this matter first, Zhou Chao said, taking out his phone and dialing Tang Mingmings number.

The phone rang several times before Tang Mingming answered.

Good afternoon, Boss.

Afternoon. Im calling you to discuss something. Im planning to send an executive over to your side. Please arrange her work when shes available. Boss, is it a man or a woman?

A woman? Boss, 1 understand, as soon as Tang Mingming heard it was a woman, he instantly got the message.

Hearing Tang Mingmings tone, Zhou Chao knew his mind was wandering and said impatiently, You understand? What do you understand? Why are your thoughts so messed up? This is the wife of a very important subordinate of mine. Dont think too much, got it?

Upon hearing Zhou Chaos words, Tang Mingming realized he had misunderstood and quickly tried to rectify the situation,

Understood, Boss!

She will come to report to you tomorrow, and you can handle the rest.

After Zhou Chao hung up, he muttered, Tang Mingming, why do you think Im such a lecherous person?

Boss, what are you talking about? Lin Wu walked in with a suitcase at an unknown time.

Nothing, is everything arranged?

Ive already made the call. Li Qian has gone to check on Shoufu. Hes fine, but his mental state isnt great. I asked Li Qian to take him for a walk in the neighborhood.

Zhou Chao contemplated for a moment, Hmm, lets have Li Qian take care of him before we leave.

Alright, Boss. If theres nothing else, Ill head out.

Tomorrow, well go out and buy a property for Li Wei as we discussed earlier. Hopefully, well have some free time tomorrow.

Sure thing, Boss. Lin Wu nodded and left. Zhou Chao lounged on the sofa and started playing with his phone.

Time quickly passed, and it was now five oclock. Jiang Li and Aunt Wang hadnt returned yet. Zhou Chao began to worry/ I hope nothing has happened to them.

He decided to call Jiang Li, but her phone rang for a long time without an answer. He tried several more times, but still no response. Zhou Chao sat up on the sofa, his brows furrowing in concern.

Could something have happened? Zhou Chao couldnt help but worry.

After some consideration, he decided to call his father-in-law, Jiang Youdao, to inquire if Jiang Li had returned home.

Jiang Youdao answered the phone promptly, Xiao Chao, whats going on?

Dad, I want to know where Jiang Li is. I cant reach her on her phone!

Oh, youre back in Jingdu? Jiang Li is at her grandfathers house, and Xiaofeng is back.

Xiaofeng is back? Why didnt he call me? Thanks, Dad, Ill hang up and go to Grandpa Xiaos house.

Okay.

After Jiang Youdao hung up, Zhou Chao grabbed his keys and headed out, muttering to himself, Xiaofeng, youre so unreliable. You didnt even call me when you got back. Lets see how Ill deal with you tonight!

By the time Zhou Chao arrived at the Xiao familys residence near Shichahai, it was already six oclock, and there was some traffic on the way.

Oh, I wont make it for dinner if I dont hurry, he thought as he parked the car and quickly walked towards the alley.

Zhou Chao hurriedly emerged from the alleys corner, making the two guards at the Xiao familys gate tense up, their hands instinctively reaching for their waistbands.

What are you doing here? one of the young guards with a baby face shouted.

Hearing the voice, Zhou Chao immediately stopped in his tracks. He didnt recognize either of the guards and, noticing their reactions, quickly said, I Whats T? This is a private residence. Please leave!

Zhou Chao looked at himself and realized that he was still dressed in casual home clothes. He chuckled.

Oops, I came out too quickly and forgot to change my clothes.

Just as Zhou Chao was about to call someone to come and pick him up, a figure emerged from the main gate.

Captain, someone tried to enter, the young guard quickly reported.

Hearing this, the captain finally noticed Zhou Chao standing not far away.

Oh, Young Master Zhou, why are you here? the captain hurriedly approached.

Zhou Chao also recognized the guard as the one to whom he had given two packs of cigarettes earlier.

Well, its a long story. Is Jiang Li here?

She is. There are quite a few people at home today.

Zhou Chao nodded in response and walked inside.

As Zhou Chao entered the house, the young guard who had been worried earlier looked dejected, muttering to himself, Im in trouble, I must have offended him just now!

Dont worry about it. Trust me, Young Master Zhou isnt as petty as you think. Really, Captain? The young guards face lit up with surprise.

Have 1 ever lied to you? the captain replied, not too pleased with his subordinates behavior..
