“Uncle Ye, I hope 1 didn’t interrupt your work!”
“You’re quite the busybody. So, what’s up?”When Zhou Chao heard Ye Zhengfeng’s words, he couldn’t help but smile slightly, feeling a bit embarrassed.
“Uncle Ye, I just wanted to let you know that the production line we talked about earlier will be arriving in Peng City tomorrow, so I thought I’d give you a heads-up.”
“I still don’t know what you’re getting at. Who did you arrange to pick up the goods? Is it Lin Wu?”
“Yes, Uncle Ye, it’s Lin Wu. I’ve already arranged for him to be in Peng City today, and all the preparations have been made.”
“Alright, I understand. Send me Lin Wu’s contact information, and that’ll be enough. You’re already starting to scheme against me. When you arrive in Peng City, I’ll show you how I handle things!”
After saying this, Ye Zhengfeng hung up the phone. Zhou Chao knew that Ye Zhengfeng wasn’t really scolding him. fie quickly sent Lin Wu’s phone number to Ye Zhengfeng via text message.
Zhou Chao lay back on the lounge chair, contemplating his next steps and how to proceed. Various thoughts swirled in his mind.
“Well, let’s take it step by step. 1 should prioritize recruiting talent since I’ll need them when the equipment is ready. 1 just hope 1 won’t have to wait too long!”
Zhou Chao sighed deeply, picked up his phone from the table, and dialed a number.
After several rings, the call was answered.
“Boss, I was in a meeting just now,” came Ling Chen’s serious and deep voice from the other end.
“Still in a meeting? Call me back when you’re free; there’s something important to discuss.”
“Alright, Boss.” Zhou Chao ended the call and set his phone aside, returning to his book.
While savoring the fresh fruit made by Jiang Li and immersing himself in the world of physics knowledge, time flew by, and an hour and a half passed swiftly.
His phone rang again, and Zhou Chao knew it was Ling Chen. He picked up and answered, “Hello, Ling Chen.”
“Boss, did you call because of something important?”
“Yeah, it looks like Peng City is going to undergo significant development soon, and we urgently need knowledge-based talents. So, I want you to start recruiting.”
“Recruiting? Boss, these tech talents are highly sought after by major companies and research institutes. It won’t be easy to poach them.”
“If it were easy, would 1 bother calling you? 1 might as well call Yang, the CEO of Radiant International; it’s easier and less time-consuming!
Start by collecting information on tech talents from various major companies and universities. Hire as many as you can, but don’t forget the confidentiality agreements. Also, make sure to conduct thorough background checks on the people you choose. I don’t want our company’s secrets ending up on someone else’s desk the next day.”
“Boss, I understand. I’ll arrange for personnel immediately. Additionally, there are some recent developments in the company that I’d like to report to you.”
“Just send me an email with the report, and I’ll review it when 1 have the time.” Ling Chen could only nod silently, considering that Zhou Chao was the boss.
“Alright, that’s it for now. Call me if there’s any progress, and get started as soon as possible!”
“Yes, Boss!” Zhou Chao hung up the phone and felt a bit relieved. Now, all he needed to do was wait, and hopefully, the wait wouldn’t be too long.
“Brother Chao, it’s time for dinner!” Jiang Li’s voice came from inside the house.
“Coming!” Zhou Chao replied and got up from the sofa, heading into the house.
During these past few days, whenever Zhou Chao was in the kitchen, Jiang Li would be there diligently learning. Initially, Zhou Chao was reluctant, but Jiang Li’s sincere words touched him, so he agreed to her request.
“Brother Chao, I’m sure you don’t want me just for decoration right? If 1 stay like that, I’ll feel like you’re drifting further away. You’re getting better and better, so 1 want to keep up with you!” Whenever Zhou Chao remembered her serious expression back then, a happy smile would involuntarily appear on his face.
“What delicious dish have you prepared?” Zhou Chao looked at Jiang Li, who was about to take the dishes out of the warming cabinet, and quickly approached.
“See if you like it!” Zhou Chao watched as Jiang Li brought out a plate of sweet and sour spare ribs from the warming cabinet, and it looked pretty good.
“Give it to me!” Zhou Chao took the dish from Jiang Li’s hand and carried it out.
Looking at the table with two meat dishes, one vegetable dish, and a soup, and smelling the enticing aroma, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but say with a smile, “Not bad at all, you’ve truly inherited Chef Zhou’s skills. I’m deeply pleased!”
Jiang Li couldn’t help but tease Zhou Chao when she saw him acting all proud, saying, “This is the masterpiece of this fairy, okay? I did contribute a little bit, you know!”
As she said this, she even used her fingers to gesture, and Zhou Chao noticed that the distance Jiang Li gestured was probably just enough for a hair to pass through.
“All, yes, it’s all thanks to our talented All Li’s culinary skills! Let’s dig in while it’s still warm; it won’t taste as good when it gets cold!” Zhou Chao couldn’t contain his eagerness to savor the delicious meal and began eating with his chopsticks.
“Mnim, it’s pretty good! You should give it a try too!” Zhou Chao picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and found it quite tasty.
“Hmph, see? 1 told you I’m talented!” Jiang Li proudly puffed her chest, radiating a sense of accomplishment.
“Very talented, very talented!” The two of them enjoyed their dinner in a cheerful atmosphere.
After dinner, Jiang Li settled on the sofa, having a great time playing with Shoufu. Meanwhile, Zhou Chao was busy in the kitchen, mainly cleaning up the various oil splatters that had resulted from Jiang Li’s cooking. It took him nearly half an hour to clean up thoroughly.
“All Li, what are you watching?” When Zhou Chao emerged from the kitchen, he saw Ah Li sitting on the sofa, engrossed in watching TV. Curiously, he walked over and asked.
“Detective Conan!” Jiang Li replied without turning her head.
“Is it good?”
“It’s great! Come over, let’s watch together like we used to!” Jiang Li beckoned to him, and Zhou Chao walked over to the sofa, sitting behind her. They settled into their usual arrangement, with Zhou Chao holding Jiang Li and Jiang Li holding Shoufu.
The two of them focused on watching TV, and Zhou Chao found the show quite entertaining. Gradually, he got engrossed in it as well.
They continued watching until 11 o’clock, and Shoufu had fallen asleep on Jiang Li’s lap.
“Let’s go to bed. It’s getting late, and since you were the chef tonight, you’ve got a bit of kitchen aroma clinging to you,” Zhou Chao said playfully, wearing a mischievous grin.
Girls liked to be clean, and when Jiang Li heard that she had kitchen fumes on her, she pulled her clothes and sniffed them, confirming that there was indeed a faint smell. She then gently placed Shoufu on the sofa and stood up.
“Brother Chao, I’ll go take a shower first!” Jiang Li said cheerfully as she headed upstairs. Zhou Chao couldn’t help but wear a mischievous smile and followed her upstairs.
Just a short while after they had turned on the water, Jiang Li, who was in the process of undressing, saw Zhou Chao walking in. At this point, Jiang Li was still unaware of Zhou Chao’s mischievous intentions. She rolled her eyes at him, and after undressing, she stepped into the bathtub. In just a few moments, Zhou Chao also removed his clothes.
Before long, the bathroom was filled with the harmonious symphony of love a symphony that alternated between low, medium, and high notes, creating a melodious masterpiece of passion and desire..
