Chapter 398 - 398: Brother’s Arrival



“Brother Chao, when did you come back?”

As soon as Jiang Li entered the room, she saw Zhou Chao lying on the sofa playing with his phone, looking excited. She ran over to him, not even paying attention to her bag that had fallen on the floor.

“There’s something urgent at the company, so 1 hurried back!” Zhou Chao immediately embraced Jiang Li.

“I missed you!” Jiang Li sat on Zhou Chao’s lap, looking up at him with teary eyes.

Zhou Chao kissed her directly, and Jiang Li held onto his neck, and the two of them started passionately kissing on the sofa.

After a while, Jiang Li leaned on Zhou Chao, trying to catch her breath.

“I’ll make something delicious, let’s have dinner later!” Zhou Chao patted Jiang Li’s pert buttocks, prompting her to get off him.

“Mmm,” Jiang Li blushed and sat on the sofa, gazing affectionately at Zhou Chao as he headed to the kitchen.

Zhou Chao worked quickly, and in less than 20 minutes, dinner was ready. They both quickly finished their meal, understanding each other’s desires.

After Zhou Chao finished cleaning up and returned to the bedroom, he heard the sound of water running in the bathroom. Without a word, he swiftly took off his clothes and entered the bathroom.

For a while, the bathroom was filled with tumultuous waves and the sound of flowing water, accompanied by the sweet songs of birds, echoing throughout the entire bedroom.

“Brother Chao, why do you think I’m still not pregnant? Should I go to the hospital for a check-up?” Jiang Li lay on Zhou Chao’s chest, drawing circles with her small hand.

Jiang Li’s words made Zhou Chao deep in thought. Could it be because his body had been enhanced by the system, and he had lost his reproductive function? That shouldn’t be the case.

“Don’t worry, let’s wait and see!”

Seeing Zhou Chao’s reassurance, Jiang Li nodded in agreement.

“Alright, don’t overthink it. Maybe you’ll get pregnant soon!”

“I hope so.”

It’s getting late, let’s sleep!” Zhou Chao turned off the lights and held Jiang Li’s delicate body as they drifted off to sleep.

When Zhou Chao woke up the next day, Jiang Li was no longer there.

After getting up and tidying up, he came downstairs and saw two bowls placed on the dining table along with a note.

“This little girl!” Zhou Chao chuckled and shook his head, then picked up the note to read.

“Brother Chao, 1 made breakfast for you. Make sure to finish it all!” Reading the message on the note, Zhou Chao burst into laughter.

He then lifted the lids of the two bowls, revealing two eggs underneath. These were not ordinary eggs; they were poached eggs, and there was even one in a saucer!

“Is she teasing me?” Zhou Chao wondered as he picked up the two eggs and sat down on the sofa.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Information about the Huaxia Ancient Costume Exhibition in Modu had been spreading like wildfire online. For enthusiasts, it was a major event, and many studios, bloggers, YouTubers, and fans were getting excited.

Some were optimistic, while others were skeptical. After all, it was the first time such a large-scale event was being held, and opinions online were varied.

Meanwhile, Zhou Chao sat in his office, listening to Ling Chen’s report in the early hours.

“Boss, all the preparations for the early stages have been completed. The International Expo Center has given us two days, and the event is scheduled for the day after tomorrow.”

“Mmm, I understand. On the day of the event, we’ll also have Lei Du Corporation announce our partnership in establishing the Huaxia Ancient Costume brand!”

“I understand. 1 will discuss this with Miles as soon as possible.”

“And when the time comes, you will oversee the event on-site. Also, make sure to release any relevant information about DA to capitalize on this wave of enthusiasm and get him to shine!”

“Boss, don’t worry, everything has been arranged meticulously.”

“Has the delegation from Lei Du Corporation arrived in Modu for this event?”

“Not yet. They’re expected to arrive tomorrow at noon. I’ve already arranged everything, and 1’11 coordinate with their representative on the schedule.”

Zhou Chao nodded in response to Ling Chen’s update and reviewed the event planning documents in his hand, confirming that there were no major issues.

“Alright, you’re doing a great job. I’ll head back for now.”

After everything was sorted out, Zhou Chao left the company and returned home.

Now, all that was left to do was wait patiently for the events to unfold, anticipating the upcoming Huaxia Ancient Costume Exhibition, which would be his time to shine.

Everything was proceeding smoothly.

Upon returning to Junzhou Huating, Zhou Chao received a call from Si Cong.

“Si Cong, what’s up?”

“Young Master Zhou, you’re organizing such a big event, and you didn’t invite me? I could have been of help!”

“I thought you were so busy with your ladies, so 1 didn’t call you!”

“Well, that’s not a problem. I’ve already talked to my dad, and we’ve been broadcasting videos about your event on screens in shopping malls nationwide to promote traditional costumes. On the day of the event, I’ll bring some internet celebrities to do live broadcasts on-site!”

Hearing Si Cong’s words, Zhou Chao smiled appreciatively.

“I’ll trouble you then. If you have extra funds, you can prepare more!”

Si Cong was momentarily stunned by Zhou Chao’s words, but then his excitement grew.

“Young Master Zhou, do you have any other big moves in mind?”

“I can’t say for now. Just be prepared on your end!”

“Got it, thanks!”

“No problem.”

After ending the call, Zhou Chao had a faint smile on his face. He hadn’t expected Si Cong to be so insightful when it came to seizing opportunities.

Regardless of his initial intentions, having insight was a valuable trait.

Shaking his head, Zhou Chao shifted his thoughts and opened the system’s inventory, considering what delicious meal he could prepare for the evening to keep his strength up. He didn’t want to embarrass himself in front of Jiang Li later.

Just as he had taken out a few ingredients and placed them beside him, his phone rang.

“Hmm, why are you calling me now?” Zhou Chao noticed a slight difference in the caller ID but decided to answer the call anyway.

“Hello, Wen Shao.”

“Brother-in-law, where are you? I’m in Modu!”

“You’re in Modu? Does your sister know?”

“She doesn’t know. I just landed.”

“I can send someone to pick you up. Which airport are you at?”

“No need, Brother-in-law. I’ve already arranged for someone to pick me up. I just wanted to have dinner with you and my sister tonight!”

“Alright, send me the address, and I’ll come with your sister later.” After a brief consideration, Zhou Chao agreed. After all, Wen Shao was Jiang Li’s younger brother, and it wouldn’t be right to decline.

“Alright!”

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chao quickly received Wen Shao’s location and the private room number. The restaurant where they would be dining was none other than the historic Peace Hotel.

Checking the time, Zhou Chao realized that Jiang Li would be finishing work soon, so he called her to avoid making her commute back and forth.

“Brother Chao, what’s up?”

“Wen Shao is in Modu. He’s inviting us for dinner tonight at the Peace Hotel. It’s not far from where you are. Just come straight here after work. I’m getting ready to leave now!”

“Why did Wen Shao come to Modu?”

“I don’t know, maybe just for fun.”

“Alright, I’ll come over after work!”

“Great!”

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chao changed into a fresh outfit and headed to the Peace Hotel in his Lamborghini Veneno, located on the Bund.

In less than half an hour, he arrived at the Peace Hotel.

Looking at the historically rich building with a strong sense of modern architecture, Zhou Chao handed his car keys to the valet. Following the guidance of the hotel staff, he headed straight to the private room.

Zhou Chao had never dined at the Peace Hotel before, primarily because they specialized in Shanghainese cuisine, which didn’t quite suit his palate.

Walking into the hotel, classical music surrounded him, giving him a feeling of being transported back to the era of Ye Lai Xiang (a famous nightclub in Shanghai during the 1930s).

The Peace Hotel felt different. It exuded a sense of Republican-era elegance with its Gothic architecture and historically inspired decor.

Labels like honor, luxury, legend, the Huangpu River waterfront, and the iconic landmarks of Modu gave him a feeling of time and space being intertwined.

“Brother-in-law, you’re here!” As soon as he entered the private room, Zhou Chao saw Wen Shao happily chatting with a few people.

“Hmm, who are these people?” He asked, looking at the three individuals sitting next to Wen Shao.

“Brother-in-law, these are my friends from Jingdu. We came to Modu to have some fun!” Wen Shao replied without introducing his friends.

Seeing Wen Shao’s lack of introduction, Zhou Chao had a pretty good idea. They were probably just friends who enjoyed drinking and dining, so he didn’t inquire further.

“Have you all made your arrangements?”

“We’ve all sorted out our accommodations, but we’re not sure what’s fun to do here.”

“If you don’t know what’s fun here, why did you come to Modu?”

“Well, Modu is hosting the Huaxia Ancient Costume Exhibition, and we’re all enthusiasts of traditional costumes. So, we’re planning to attend the event!” Wen Shao explained, looking slightly embarrassed.

“Sounds good. After the event is over, you can have a good time in Modu for a couple of days. I’ll make arrangements for you!” Zhou Chao smiled when he heard that they were coming for the Ancient Costume Exhibition, showing his approval.

Just as they were engrossed in their conversation, the door to the private room was pushed open again, and Jiang Li walked in, carrying a bag.

“Sis!” Wen Shao quickly stood up and greeted her.

Jiang Li nodded in response and took a seat next to Zhou Chao.

“Waiter, everyone is here, you can start serving!” Wen Shao called out to the server at the door.

Soon, the server entered the room with dishes in hand.

There were various dishes like Peking duck, crystal shrimp, pine nut sweet and sour fish, and an eight-treasure soup, among others. It didn’t take long for the table to be filled with delicious food. It seemed that Wen Shao had ordered almost everything from the menu.

Seeing the dishes ready, Zhou Chao and the others didn’t waste any time and started eating.

Zhou Chao, who was used to spicy food, found the sweetness of Shanghainese cuisine a bit unfamiliar. He didn’t eat too much, except for the Peking duck and sweet and sour fish, which he enjoyed more. He only sampled some of the other dishes.

After leaving the Peace Hotel, the Bund was already lit up with vibrant lights.

Many tourists had gathered on the streets to enjoy the night scenery.

“Wen Shao, are you planning to explore the Bund, or are you heading back?”

“Brother-in-law, we want to stroll along the Bund and enjoy the view!”

“Alright, then your sister and I will head back first. If you need anything, just give me a call!”

“Got it, Brother-in-law!”

Zhou Chao and Jiang Li got into the Lamborghini Veneno that had been brought around by the valet and drove away as Wen Shao and his friends set off to explore the Bund..
