Chapter 654: Small Problem! (3)
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Shuyi gritted her teeth and quickly jumped from the duck-shaped float into the pool.
Immediately, the two of them started posing in various ways in the pool, while Zhou Chao kept snapping photos with his phone.
As time passed, Shuyi’s face became even redder.
“Shuyi, do you have any inappropriate thoughts about this handsome guy?” Keke whispered to Shuyi.
“You’ve got nerve! You’re the one with inappropriate thoughts!” Shuyi retorted.
“Hey pretty, I think we’ve taken enough photos. Here’s your phone!” Zhou Chao placed Keke’s phone by the pool.
Keke glanced at Zhou Chao and said with a playful smile, “Hey handsome, add me as a friend!”
“My contact information is with the person behind you. I have to go now as I have other matters to attend to!” Zhou Chao chuckled.
Watching Zhou Chao walk away, Keke turned to Shuyi and said, “Wow, Shuyi, when did you hook up with this handsome guy? You didn’t even tell me, are you trying to hog him all to yourself?”
“Mind your own business! That guy just now is the super wealthy mysterious young master I mentioned to you before!”
“What? The handsome guy just now is the enigmatic young master who even Si Cong would address as ‘Young Master’!” Keke exclaimed in disbelief.
“Yes, it’s him. I was so nervous when you asked Zhou Chao to take our photo. I was sweating bullets and felt so awkward!”
“Come on, sis, give me Zhou Chao’s contact information.” Keke leaned on Shuyi’s arm and coquettishly pleaded.
Feeling the softness of her arm, Shuyi glanced down at Keke’s ample bosom, a hint of envy in her eyes.
“Save your schemes. Zhou Chao isn’t like Si Cong and the others. I heard from Lao Piao that Zhou Chao is already married. And even if he weren’t, you wouldn’t stand a chance.” Shuyi didn’t mince words, puncturing Keke’s hopes.
Keke nodded silently, realizing that family knows best. Since Shuyi said so, she didn’t insist on getting Zhou Chao’s contact information anymore.
After Zhou Chao left the pool, he went to the beach by the sea. Perhaps because the National Day holiday had just ended, there were very few people on the beach.
He found a clean lounge chair on the beach and sat down.
“Buzz buzz buzz!” Just as he lay down for less than two minutes, his phone in his pocket started ringing.
Taking it out, he saw that it was a call from Li Wei.
“Oh, finally decided to call. Looks like you’re here to apologize and get scolded.” Zhou Chao’s lips curved into a smile, but he quickly suppressed it and answered the call.
“Oh, boss, I didn’t forget to call you. I thought you might have forgotten!”
Li Wei’s rehearsed speech was immediately forgotten when he heard Zhou Chao’s voice.
“Boss!” Li Wei sounded a bit nervous.
“What’s wrong? Where’s all that bravado from before? Now you can’t even speak clearly?” Zhou Chao teased.
“Boss, I’m just afraid of being scolded by you!”
“Scolding you would be pointless. Have you sorted things out?”
To be honest, Zhou Chao wasn’t angry. After all, the situation overseas was very different from that in China, and some mistakes were inevitable.
“Lin Wu has already briefed me. I’ve arranged everything. I’ve arranged for a vice president to lead the team, and they’ll take the afternoon flight today!”
“As long as it’s sorted out, go do what you need to do. Be more careful in the future. Alright, that’s it. Remember to let me know when you’re getting married.”
“Okay, boss!” Li Wei was relieved that Zhou Chao didn’t scold him. Even his tone was much lighter.
With a smile, Zhou Chao hung up the phone..
