At the Hilton Hotel, second-floor private room!

Zhou Chao and his friends, feeling full and satisfied, were leisurely sipping tea and chatting.

“Young Master Zhou, how about going for a late-night snack later?” Si Cong suddenly suggested.

“I’m fine with it. Abdullah, what about you?” Zhou Chao shrugged indifferently, turning to Abdullah beside him.

“Go for a walk by the seaside?”

“Why go for a walk in Lu Island at night? Of course, we’re going to the nightclub. You know Lu City gathers most of the country’s internet-famous beauties. Not experiencing Lu City’s nightlife would make this trip to Lu City pointless.”

Abdullah’s interest was piqued at the mention of this. He immediately agreed. Seeing Abdullah’s agreement, Zhou Chao couldn’t dampen everyone’s spirits. It was only about seven o’clock when Zhou Chao glanced at the time. He then looked at Si Cong and the others and said, “Alright, it’s settled then. Let’s all go back to our rooms and rest up. We’ll leave at ten thirty tonight, how about that?”

“Sounds good!”

With that, everyone got up and left, returning to their respective rooms.

Zhou Chao returned to his room, grabbed a bottle of Evian from the fridge, and drank it in two or three gulps.

“Ah, if it were in Jingdu, it would almost be winter by now. Coming to Lu City, it’s still a bit hot at night.” He said while lying on the sun lounger on the balcony, enjoying the refreshing breeze blowing in from the sea.

Playing with his phone while feeling the sea breeze was indeed a very leisurely thing to do.

Opening the long-neglected Mou Yin, Zhou Chao had just browsed a few videos when he lightly tapped his head.

“Damn, I’ve been playing so much lately that I forgot to check on things. Hey, let me call Ling Chen, just hope he’s not cursing me behind my back, hehe!” Zhou Chao, accustomed to being a casual boss, smirked slightly and then called Ling Chen.

The phone rang several times before it was answered.

“Hello, is this Uncle Zhou?” A somewhat naive voice came from the other end of the phone.

Hearing this voice, Zhou Chao was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted. “Are you Xiao Yang? Where’s your dad?”

“Uncle Zhou, my dad is washing dishes in the kitchen, and his phone is charging in the bedroom. Wait a moment, I’ll go get my dad’s phone for you.” Zhou Chao heard the sound of running footsteps and the call from Xiao Yang, “Daddy, Uncle Zhou is calling you!”

“Uncle Zhou? Which Uncle Zhou?” Ling Chen asked with a hint of confusion.

“The Uncle Zhou with the big, big house who can cook delicious food.”

Hearing the conversation between the two, Zhou Chao’s lips curled into a smile. He didn’t expect Ling Chen’s son Xiao Yang to be so cute.

“Hey, boss, are you still there? Sorry for the inconvenience just now!” Ling Chen said with a hint of apology in his tone.

“It’s okay. Xiao Yang is quite cute. You go ahead and tidy up. I’ll call you back later!”

Zhou Chao didn’t know if it was because his own child was about to be born or because Ling Chen’s son Xiao Yang was so adorable, but he felt that he was starting to like children more and more.

“Boss, I’m done with what I was doing. Is there anything you need?”

“There are several things I need to discuss with you, but we’ll have to wait until I return to Modu to delve into them properly.”

“Boss, wait for me. I’ll go to the study right away!”

With that, there was the sound of Ling Chen hurrying upstairs from the phone. Ling Chen had also bought a house recently, an independent villa, not far from where Zhou Chao lived, just about two streets away.

Zhou Chao couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. He didn’t know what stroke of luck he had to find such a loyal and capable manager who not only was efficient but also gave him peace of mind.

“Boss, I’m ready. What’s the matter?” Ling Chen said, still a little out of breath.

“You don’t have to be in such a hurry. It’s actually not that important.”

“Haha, it’s okay, boss. Just consider it a post-meal chat!”

Zhou Chao shook his head helplessly. He knew Ling Chen wouldn’t listen even if he said so. Ling Chen, who was always decisive, didn’t allow himself to procrastinate.

“Okay, let’s cut to the chase. The first thing is about the matters handled by the entertainment company earlier. How’s it going?”

Ling Chen paused for a moment. “Boss, I haven’t received a reply from Shang Xiaoqing about this matter yet. Should I call her later?”

“No need. I trust Shang Xiaoqing’s ability to get things done. The second thing is that I reached some agreements with the local authorities in Fuzhou a few days ago. You’ll need to send a team over there for detailed discussions. I’ll send you the specifics later!”

Ling Chen didn’t immediately respond. Instead, he pondered Zhou Chao’s intentions behind this arrangement. “Boss, are you planning to invest a little or support the development of your hometown?”

“Of course, I want to support the development of my hometown. Why do you ask?” Zhou Chao asked, somewhat surprised.

“Boss, if you’re planning to support the development of your hometown, this matter may require some effort. I’ll discuss it with some of the company’s senior management later and come up with a plan. I’ll give you the proposal as soon as possible!”

Hearing this, Zhou Chao understood Ling Chen’s intention. Ling Chen was preparing to develop a plan based on the group’s development and local resources and policies.

“Just handle it as you see fit. When the time comes, arrange for a reliable person to be in charge.”

After all, Fuzhou was a small city in the fifth or sixth tier, and there was no need for the two of them to personally intervene. At most, it could be handed over to a senior executive to manage..
