“Hmm,” Zhou Chao let out a yawn, then sat up from the couch. He checked the time; it was already 5:34 PM. He grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge and finished most of it in one go.
“It’s so comfortable to just lie at home, not thinking about anything or doing anything.” Zhou Chao sighed and finished the remaining water in one gulp.
“Time to head out and enjoy some free meals and drinks!” Zhou Chao glanced at the car keys on the table and ultimately chose the venom. He picked up the keys and left.
When Zhou Chao arrived at Huang Mansion, several people were already seated in the private room.
“Brother Chao, long time no see!” Qin Lang, Yang Shuo, and Yin Keting quickly stood up to greet him.
BoxNovel.com“Don’t be formal; we’re all friends. Please, take a seat!” Zhou Chao waved his hand, inviting everyone to sit down.
“Where’s Big Brother and Qin Fen?” Zhou Chao asked Qin Lang as he took a seat, curious.
“They’ll arrive shortly. They have some company business to take care of, so they might be delayed a bit.”
“So, what have you all been busy with lately?” Zhou Chao poured himself a cup of tea and inquired.
The group exchanged glances before Qin Lang, the leader, spoke up. “Brother Chao, remember how we made a decent profit last year? Well, the four of us pooled our resources and acquired an import-export trading company!” “Import-export trading? That sounds promising. Good luck with it!” Zhou Chao hadn’t expected this group of wealthy heirs to be quite enterprising. After all, Modu was a hub for import-export businesses, and it wasn’t too difficult for them to secure funding. Of course, they couldn’t compete with the big corporations, but they had their own niche.
Zhou Chao chatted with them about their recent endeavors for about half an hour. Then, Qin Fen and Li Yang walked in together.
“Why are you all so late? We’re almost transitioning to a late-night feast!” Zhou Chao teased when he saw them.
“You, Big Master Zhou, have gotten used to being a hands-off manager, haven’t you? You don’t know how hard we’ve been working!” Qin Fen complained jokingly.
“Oh, come on, we’re all friends here. Relax!” Zhou Chao reassured them.
“Hey, Big Brother, how’s your girlfriend? Any progress?” Zhou Chao turned his attention to Li Yang.
Li Yang had a smug grin on his face. “What do you expect? I’ve definitely won her over. She’s at my place now.”
“Oh, look at that, Qin Fen, did you see it? The big bad wolf is strutting his stuff! He’s talking like everyone else doesn’t have a girlfriend!” Zhou Chao couldn’t resist teasing him, seeing Li Yang’s proud expression.
“Yeah, that’s right!” The others chimed in and agreed.
“You guys know nothing. My girlfriend is pregnant. How about your girlfriends? Are they expecting?” Li Yang’s words left everyone silent, thinking to themselves, “He really outdid us!”
Qin Fen, who had remained silent, looked at Li Yang and asked, “Did your family agree to it?”
Qin Fen’s words felt like a thorn piercing Li Yang’s heart. Li Yang reached into his pocket and took out a cigarette, lighting it up while deep in thought, taking a long drag.
“Uh, my family agreed!” Li Yang’s sudden change of stance caught Zhou Chao and the others off guard. They had thought Li Yang’s family might not agree, leading to a dramatic display of defying family expectations for the sake of love. However, it turned out differently!
“You crafty rascal, Big Bro! Do you believe you can pull a fast one on us like this? You’re not getting out of here unless you pass out from alcohol later!” “Yeah, not getting drunk means you won’t be leaving today!” Qin Fen added, equally frustrated. They felt like they were being taken for a ride.
“Heh heh, I just wanted to see your reactions!” Li Yang tried to defend himself as he saw everyone gearing up to pour him a drink. He had to backpedal.
“There’s no time for excuses now!” Qin Lang sternly extinguished Li Yang’s escape route.
“All! I just wanted to show off a bit. I didn’t expect to end up like this!” Li Yang looked utterly defeated, and his forlorn expression made Zhou Chao and the others burst into laughter.
“Hey, Qin Fen, what about Sichong?” Zhou Chao’s question silenced the room.
“He’s on house arrest at home!” Understanding the reactions of everyone, Zhou Chao nodded knowingly and decided not to inquire further.
“I’m starving! Haven’t they taken our orders yet?” Li Yang rubbed his growling stomach and loudly asked.
“Uh… I forgot. I’ll order right away!” Qin Lang stood up sheepishly and walked towards the door.
A few moments later, Qin Lang returned. “Let’s wait for a moment. They’re bringing some appetizers and fruits to fill our stomachs first.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the room’s door was pushed open, and a waiter entered with cold dishes and fruits. The hungry group wasted no time and started eating.
“Big Brother, aren’t you getting married this year?” Zhou Chao finished his watermelon and looked at Li Yang, curious.
“Well, my dad wants me to get married early and give him a grandson soon!”
“Are you saying it’s happening soon?” Zhou Chao felt a bit uncomfortable hearing Li Yang’s words. His childhood friend had just gotten married, and now his big brother was talking about getting married. With the addition of Third Brother who got married last year, he and Xiao Feng were the only ones left.
Of course, Qin Fen and the others didn’t count, as they were not in a hurry to settle down and might not have the opportunity to decide on their own marriages.
“Yeah, in mid-next month. You guys better all come!” Li Yang looked at everyone with a hint of amusement in his eyes.
“In Modu?”
“My dad’s idea is to have it on a cruise ship. We’ll find a large one!” Qin Fen and the others looked excited at the prospect.
“I’ve never been to a wedding on a cruise ship before. I can’t wait to see it. By the way, Chao’er, where’s your wife?”
Zhou Chao, who was eating watermelon, heard Qin Fen calling him. After swallowing a few mouthfuls of watermelon, he replied, “She’s in Jingdu. She might come over soon, and I’ll introduce you then.”
At that moment, the door of the private room was pushed open once again, and the waitstaff entered with a spread of delicious dishes.
“Let’s have some drinks first, and then we can chat! There’s only one goal for today—no one leaves this room sober!” Zhou Chao chuckled to himself. He knew that none of his friends could outdrink him.
“Here we go, fill ’em up!” Each person had a bottle of Maotai in front of them. After pouring their glasses full, they raised them and downed the fiery liquor in one gulp.
The private room continued to buzz with activity for nearly two hours. Li Yang, Qin Lang, and Yin Keting were already passed out, and Qin Fen and Yang Shuo were not far behind. Only Zhou Chao remained sober.
Looking at his friends, who were now inebriated, he pinched his brow. “I’ll have to be the one to get them back!”
He took out his phone and dialed Lin Wu’s number.
“Lin Wu, bring five people to Huang Mansion. We’re in the private room. Just come in when you arrive. They all need to be able to drive!”
Zhou Chao hung up and looked at Li Yang, the first to fall asleep, before heaved a sigh.
After about half an hour, there was a knock on the door of the private room.
“Come in!” The door opened, and it was Lin Wu and Wang Feng, along with others.
“Boss!”
“Alright, Wang Feng, you take charge of getting them to the Hilton Hotel and settling them in. Lin Wu, take me home!”
Shortly after, Wang Feng and his companions assisted one individual each in leaving the room. They departed from Huang Mansion in a convoy of six luxury cars..
