“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. I’m heading back, and 1’11 arrange her work while I’m at it.”

“I’ll call her over right away,” Li Wei said as he dialed Wang Lan’s number.

Soon, Wang Lan arrived at Li Wei’s office.

“Boss, do you need something?”

“I just wanted to ask if you want to cback to Jingdu. If you do, you can cwith me.”

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

“Boss, I’ll go back with you. Just givea 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 didn’t waste much time. They had a quick lunch in a town they passed by. By the tthe 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, let’s 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 couldn’t 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 boss’s business empire.

The plane landed at Jingdu Airport in no time. Thɪs chapter is updated by ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

“You don’t need a ride?”

“No need, Boss. I’ll just take a taxi home.”

“Alright. Tomorrow, you’ll report to Huabin Golf Club. I’ll 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 htoo?”

“We’ll take the Rolls-Royce from the airport parking lot. I left it there. You go ahead and drive it, and I’ll 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 week’s worth of food on a timer. It should be fine.”

“You can ask your wife to check on him. I’m a bit worried since I’ve been away for so long, and there’s no one at home.”

“Understood, Boss. 1’11 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 hafter 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.

“Let’s deal with this matter first,” Zhou Chao said, taking out his phone and dialing Tang Mingming’s number.

The phone rang several times before Tang Mingming answered.

“Good afternoon, Boss.”

“Afternoon. I’m calling you to discuss something. I’m planning to send an executive over to your side. Please arrange her work when she’s 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 Mingming’s 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. Don’t think too much, got it?”

Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Tang Mingming realized he had misunderstood and quickly tried to rectify the situation, Read Web s Online Free - Fire Fire -

“Understood, Boss!”

“She will cto report to you tomorrow, and you can handle the rest.”

After Zhou Chao hung up, he muttered, “Tang Mingming, why do you think I’m 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?”

“I’ve already made the call. Li Qian has gone to check on Shoufu. He’s fine, but his mental state isn’t great. I asked Li Qian to take him for a walk in the neighborhood.”

Zhou Chao contemplated for a moment, “Hmm, let’s have Li Qian take care of him before we leave.”

“Alright, Boss. If there’s nothing else, I’ll head out.”

“Tomorrow, we’ll go out and buy a property for Li Wei as we discussed earlier. Hopefully, we’ll have sfree ttomorrow.”

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

Tquickly passed, and it was now five o’clock. Jiang Li and Aunt Wang hadn’t 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 twithout 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 couldn’t help but worry.

After sconsideration, 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, what’s going on?”

“Dad, I want to know where Jiang Li is. I can’t reach her on her phone!”

“Oh, you’re back in Jingdu? Jiang Li is at her grandfather’s house, and Xiaofeng is back.”

“Xiaofeng is back? Why didn’t he call me? Thanks, Dad, I’ll hang up and go to Grandpa Xiao’s house.”

“Okay.”

After Jiang Youdao hung up, Zhou Chao grabbed his keys and headed out, muttering to himself, “Xiaofeng, you’re so unreliable. You didn’t even callwhen you got back. Let’s see how I’ll deal with you tonight!”

By the tZhou Chao arrived at the Xiao family’s residence near Shichahai, it was already six o’clock, and there was straffic on the way.

“Oh, I won’t make it for dinner if I don’t hurry,” he thought as he parked the car and quickly walked towards the alley.

Zhou Chao hurriedly emerged from the alley’s corner, making the two guards at the Xiao family’s 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 didn’t recognize either of the guards and, noticing their reactions, quickly said, “I…” “What’s T? This is a private residence. Please leave!”

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

“Oops, I cout too quickly and forgot to change my clothes.”

Just as Zhou Chao was about to call someone to cand 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, it’s a long story. Is Jiang Li here?”

“She is. There are quite a few people at htoday.”

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, “I’m in trouble, I must have offended him just now!”

“Don’t worry about it. Trust me, Young Master Zhou isn’t as petty as you think.” “Really, Captain?” The young guard’s face lit up with surprise.

“Have 1 ever lied to you?” the captain replied, not too pleased with his subordinate’s behavior..
