On the way back, Hou Ting couldn’t hold back his curiosity and turned to Zhou Chao, who was sitting in the back seat, asking, “Young Master Zhou, you have a good relationship with your teacher, huh? You put in so much effort to arrange all these for her.”

“It’s been several years since we last met. It just happened that we crossed paths this time. If I can help, I’ll do it. Back when I had the accident, my teacher often came to the hospital to visit me. I guess this is repaying the kindness from back then,” Zhou Chao said somewhat wistfully.

Emotions can be unpredictable. They may not seem significant when we’re not actively thinking about them, but once they surge in our hearts, they leave an indelible mark.

Hou Ting, hearing this, was slightly surprised. He hadn’t expected that a small favor from several years ago could be remembered by Zhou Chao for so many years.

“I learn a lot from Young Master Zhou!” Hou Ting said jokingly.

“Cut it out! Ah Li and I haven’t even had lunch yet. Have you arranged it for noon?” Zhou Chao glanced at him and, not wanting to dwell on the previous topic, changed the subject.

“It’s all arranged. Same old place, Yuzhilan. Let’s go!” Finnd new chapters on nove/lbin(.)com

The convoy soon arrived at Yuzhilan. Hou Ting, as a regular here, had already arranged a private room.

In the private room were just the three of them, while the rest of the entourage were placed in the main hall outside.

After giving some instructions to the waiter, Hou Ting turned to Zhou Chao and said, “Young Master Zhou, why don’t you and your wife stay in Rong City a few more days this time? Let me play the role of a good host.”

Zhou Chao put down his teacup and pondered for a moment before saying, “Let’s discuss it later. We might not be able to stay here for long. Alai is pregnant and there’s not much we can do for entertainment.”

“Ah, I see!” Only then did Hou Ting remember that Jiang Li was pregnant, and he couldn’t take Zhou Chao to any private clubs or the like.

“Okay, I got it. Anything else, or can I hang up now?”

“Boss, wait a moment, there’s something else I need to report to you!”

Zhou Chao, who was about to hang up the phone, instantly stopped his hand. “What else? Spit it out all at once!”

Lin Wu said somewhat nervously, “Boss, it’s about Abdullah. He’s planning to return to the country with some outsiders. He said he wants you to play the role of a good host and take him to taste the cuisine of Huaxia!”

“Abdullah? How did he suddenly think of Huaxia? Did you give him some kind of aphrodisiac?” Zhou Chao knew as soon as he heard this that Lin Wu must have been boasting about something over there, otherwise how would Abdullah think of going to Huaxia to have fun?

“Boss, it really wasn’t my fault. I just mentioned it briefly. The big shot behind it all is Wang Lao!”

“Big shot or Wang Lao? Tell me, if you can’t satisfy me, you’ll be learning how to herd sheep like Su Wu!”

Lin Wu felt a lump in his throat, realizing he had spoken too much. If he were actually tasked with herding sheep, he feared he might end up devouring all the sheep himself.

“Boss, it was just mentioned casually during a chat that your culinary skills are top-notch in the country. It just so happened that there was going to be an airshow in the country, and Wang Lao invited Abdullah to go and take a look. Later, I heard from Mr. Wang that they’re planning to celebrate the New Year in a big way!”

“Airshow? Alright, I got it. When are you guys coming back?” Zhou Chao also understood Wang Lao’s intention.

“Tomorrow morning’s flight. We’ll all come back together, directly to Jingdu!”

“I see. Anything else?”

“No, boss!” As soon as Lin Wu finished speaking, the call was hung up.

Watching the disconnected phone, Lin Wu sighed helplessly, “Why is it that every time I make a call, it’s when the boss is busy?”
