Knowing Zhou Chao’s situation with his wife Jiang Li, Si Cong couldn’t help but secretly scoff, “I wonder what stroke of luck Zhou Chao had to snatch Jiang Li so early. Is it just because he’s handso?”
Si Cong’s gaze towards Zhou Chao took on a hint of jealousy and envy.
“Let’s go out together tonight!” Si Cong winked suggestively at the others.
“Sure, it’s a good idea. Let’s take Abdullah to have so fun!” Hou Ting chid in.
“Yeah, I’m really interested in what you guys have been talking about before,” Abdul said with a smile.
Watching the excited trio, Zhou Chao shook his head lightly. “You guys go ahead. I’ll pass.”
“No way, Young Master Zhou, are you afraid your wife will give you a hard ti?” Hou Ting teased.
“How could that be? I just feel like my presence might dampen your excitent. Si Cong knows I don’t enjoy noisy places.”
“Zhou, you’ll miss out on a lot of fun in life this way,” Abdullah said with a hint of regret in his tone.
“Everyone has their own hobbies. Occasionally reading a book or cooking can be quite enjoyable too.”
The three of them shook their heads helplessly at Zhou Chao’s response, especially Si Cong, who knew how skilled Zhou Chao was in cooking. It seed he had developed this skill during his leisure ti.
Seeing Zhou Chao’s lack of interest, Si Cong and the others didn’t insist further. Instead, they began discussing where to go that evening.
Just as Zhou Chao was considering whether to pass the ti with a book, Lin Wu hurriedly ca out with his phone in hand.
“Boss, it’s a call from Wang Lao!”
Zhou Chao glanced at the phone and then apologized to Abdul and the others before heading inside.
“Who is Wang Lao? Why does Zhou treat him like this?” Si Cong curiously asked.
Hou Ting smirked triumphantly, “You don’t know? Say sothing nice, and I’ll tell you!”
“Get lost! If you won’t tell, I’ll ask Zhou myself later!” Si Cong rolled his eyes at Hou Ting. It seed like he was taking advantage of the situation.
“Fine, fine, I’ll tell you. Your temper hasn’t changed a bit.” Hou Ting shook his head in exasperation and briefly explained what he knew.
Abdullah also joined in.
The conversation revealed sothing astonishing. From Abdullah’s mouth, they learned about the value of the gold mine Zhou Chao owned in Russia. After that, neither of them could close their mouths in shock.
“No way, just going out for a stroll and coming back with several hundred billion more in assets, all in US dollars? It’s really unfair!” Si Cong felt like his heart had been struck all over.
“It’s actually not that much. As you guys know, mining operations take ti.
It’s just considered fixed assets,” Abdullah comforted.
Si Cong and Hou Ting exchanged a glance, shaking their heads helplessly. They regretted asking in the first place, as it only added to their worries for no reason.
“Wang Lao, is there sothing you need?” Zhou Chao sat in the front yard on a lounge chair, holding his phone.
“It’s nothing major, just wanted to discuss the matter regarding those two large oil fields with you. Do you have ti now?”
Zhou Chao pondered for a mont before replying, “Wang Lao, I’m not sure if it’s soone from above or from so dostic enterprises who wants to talk to .”
Upon hearing this, Wang Lao chuckled, “You’re quite shrewd, kid. I haven’t said anything yet, and you’re already thinking about that. Gotta admit, the future belongs to you young folks!”
“Wang Lao, please stop praising . Just tell the location, and I’ll co over. I’m clueless about this stuff, and even if I were to develop the oil fields myself, it wouldn’t be a short-term project.”
“Sure, let’s et at the restaurant where we had lunch. Just co over directly, and I’ll have Wen Bin waiting for you at the entrance.”
“Alright, Wang Lao. I’ll get ready and head over!”
After Wang Lao hung up, Zhou Chao sat on the lounge chair, lost in thought for a while before getting up and heading towards the backyard.
As soon as he arrived in the backyard, he saw the three of them chatting animatedly. “I have so things to take care of, so I’ll be busy for a while. Si Cong, you take Abdullah and Hou Ting out to have so fun tonight.”
Hearing this, Si Cong understood that Wang Lao must have sothing to discuss with Zhou Chao. He nodded, “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure everything is well arranged.”
Zhou Chao nodded slightly. When it ca to having fun, Si Cong was indeed the most adept among them.
“Alright, then I’ll head out first!” Zhou Chao bid Abdullah farewell and then turned to leave.
Back in the study, he took out the file bag from the safe, selected the relevant docunts for the two oil fields, put them in a bag, and then returned the file bag to the safe.
“Lin Wu, co with .” Taking the elevator down to the basent, he saw Lin Wu happily playing video gas.
“Sure, boss!” Lin Wu quickly turned off the ga.
The Rolls-Royce Phantom, which hadn’t been used for a long ti, then left the garage.
“Boss, where are we going?” Lin Wu asked curiously as soon as they left the garage.
“Diaoyutai, the place where we had lunch at noon!” Zhou Chao replied without looking back, gazing out the window..
