After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chao resud his battle with the fish head that he hadn’t finished earlier.
On the sidelines, Hou Ting observed Zhou Chao’s hesitant deanor. After Zhou Chao spat out the fish bones and asked, “What’s up? This isn’t your usual style. If you have sothing to ask, just ask!”
“I’m just curious about that gold mine you ntioned on the phone. You haven’t expanded your business overseas and beco a mine owner, have you? And as for that Abdullah, is he the wealthy prince of Saudi that I’m thinking of?” Hou Ting fired off two questions in a row, looking at Zhou Chao with eyes full of curiosity.
He never expected Zhou Chao to have progressed so quickly, already rubbing shoulders with famous billionaires worldwide, and appearing quite familiar with them.
“The business has long expanded overseas. As for the gold mine you ntioned, it was discovered on my ranch in Russia And about Abdullah, hmm, just as you thought, he’s indeed a big shot from Saudi.”
After finishing his explanation, Hou Ting imdiately stood up, sowhat excitedly declaring, “Big bro, I think you’ve been missing a sidekick lately. How about ?”
Zhou Chao, still unsure of Hou Ting’s intentions, didn’t rush to respond. After a mont’s thought, he said, “If you don’t have anything going on these next couple of days, you can tag along with .”
Seeing Zhou Chao agree to let him join, Hou Ting quickly lifted his cup from the table, “Thanks, Zhou Chao!” and gulped down the contents.
“Alright, no need to be so formal. There’ll be tasks assigned to you later!” Zhou Chao had his own plans. With Abdullah coming to Huaxia, Zhou Chao would have to accompany him for leisure, especially since Abdullah was a playboy himself. Hou Ting happened to be skilled in this area, so Zhou Chao would have to rely on him.
“Don’t worry, Zhou Chao, I’ll handle whatever tasks you assign with absolute perfection!”
“Okay, we’ll return to Jingdu together tomorrow. Let’s eat first; it won’t taste as good if it gets cold!” After saying this, Zhou Chao ignored the excited Hou Ting and began eating, occasionally chatting with Jiang Li about the delicious dishes.
After the al, Zhou Chao and his entourage arrived at the hotel Hou Ting had arranged in advance. Initially, Hou Ting had planned to take Zhou Chao to the club, but Zhou Chao politely declined.
“I won’t go to the club. Even if I did, there wouldn’t be much for to say. I believe the club will only get better under your managent.”
“Alright, you guys rest well. I’ll head back first!” Hou Ting also understood Zhou Chao’s character and didn’t insist further.
The club’s performance this ti was indeed impressive, but Zhou Chao wasn’t too concerned. After all, considering that he and others, including Si Cong and Qin Fen, were still circling within the dostic circle, Zhou Chao had already been dominating the international scene for a while.
And the club was just sothing Zhou Chao did casually at the ti, which didn’t really pique his interest much. Even winning the championship this ti and the cheers online didn’t catch his attention.
The past two days had left Zhou Chao and Jiang Li exhausted. As soon as they entered the room, they both collapsed onto the bed.
That night, Hou Ting ca to the hotel again and took Zhou Chao and Jiang Li out to explore the nightlife of Rong City. Jiang Li, especially, turned into a big foodie, wanting to try everything delicious she saw. However, she would take just one bite and then hand it over to Zhou Chao, leaving him with snacks but no proper al.
The next morning, Zhou Chao was awakened by Hou Ting’s knocking at the door.
“Could you co any earlier?” Zhou Chao opened the door, looking at Hou Ting irritably.
“Here, I brought breakfast for you guys. I’m heading back to Modu with you today, so making you wait would be rude!” Hou Ting boldly walked into the room and placed the bag he was carrying on the table.
Zhou Chao glanced at the ti; it was only eight o’clock. He shook his head helplessly. “I’m starting to regret my decision from yesterday. Can I take it back now?”
“How could that be? Zhou Chao’s words are like nails, once spoken, they can’t be taken back!” Hou Ting sat down but quickly stood up again.
“Alright, I’m just teasing you!” Seeing Hou Ting’s nervousness, Zhou Chao smirked.
After saying this, Zhou Chao turned and headed back to the bedroom, planning to wake up Jiang Li and take a shower.
After about half an hour of hustle and bustle, Zhou Chao and Jiang Li erged from the bedroom, dressed neatly.
Hou Ting also tactfully stood up to greet Jiang Li, “Good morning, sister-in-law!”
“Good morning!” Jiang Li was a bit surprised. She felt that Hou Ting was unusually attentive today. Although she was full of doubts, Jiang Li smiled and responded.
“Sister-in-law, try the breakfast I brought. Luckily, I used a thermos bag, so it’s still warm!” Hou Ting said as he opened the bag on the table.
But when he turned around, he saw Zhou Chao looking at him with a hostile expression. Hou Ting awkwardly smiled, “Zhou Chao, you should try it too. It won’t taste good if it gets cold!”
“Thank you so much!” Zhou Chao gritted his teeth.
Seeing Jiang Li laughing beside them, Zhou Chao realized that Hou Ting was doing this to express gratitude to him. While Zhou Chao might not think much of it, this kind of guidance could potentially elevate Hou Ting’s family business to a higher level..
