“Wang Feng, why are you still standing there?”

Hearing Lin Wu’s call, Wang Feng quickly ran towards the car.

Soon, a white Alphard pulled out of the airport.

Zhou Chao lay on the seat, closing his eyes. “Let’s go to the hotel first. We can visit the company later in the afternoon.”

“Sure, Boss!”

During the journey, Zhou Chao kept his eyes closed, and both Lin Wu and Wang Feng refrained from speaking.

They quickly arrived at the Hilton Hotel. Zhou Chao took the pre-prepared room key and went directly to his room in the elevator.

“Brother Wu, is the boss angry?”

“You’re asking me? I’ll inquire discreetly later. For now, focus on your tasks. Cto pick up the boss and go to the company in the afternoon. Don’t be late,” Lin Wu said. Afterward, he also took his room key and went upstairs.

After settling his luggage, Lin Wu decided to head to Zhou Chao’s room.

* Knock, knock, knock!* Lin Wu lightly tapped on Zhou Chao’s door. After waiting for a couple of minutes, the door opened.

Inside, Zhou Chao was wiping his hands with a few tissues.

“Do you need something?” Zhou Chao walked to the sofa and sat down.

“Boss, earlier Wang Feng was a bit disrespectful in his speech. I scolded him already, and 1 hope you’re not upset,” Lin Wu said, bowing his head.

“Oh, 1 didn’t even pay much attention to that. I wasn’t bothered by it.”

“Then, Boss, why didn’t you speak during the entire journey? I thought you might be angry!”

Zhou Chao paused for a moment and then burst into laughter. He laughed for quite a while before saying, “I ate something on the plane that didn’t sit well with my stomach, which is why I didn’t speak. I rushed to the room because I needed to use the restroom. Don’t overthink it.”

Hearing Zhou Chao’s explanation, Lin Wu felt relieved.

“Boss, I’ll head back to my room now. If you need anything, just call me!”

Zhou Chao was still unaware of Lin Wu’s hidden intentions and simply nodded lightly.

“Go ahead, I’ll also take srest.” Perhaps the food he had earlier hadn’t sat well with him, and Zhou Chao had been feeling uncomfortable in his stomach.

Lin Wu turned and left the room, leaving Zhou Chao to lie down on the couch and rest.

* Knock, knock, knock!*

Urgent knocking on the door woke up Zhou Chao, who had been napping on the sofa.

Opening the door, he saw Lin Wu, whose face displayed a sense of urgency.

“What’s the matter? Why are you so flustered?”

“Boss, Zhang Ruoyun is involved in a legal dispute!” Lin Wu handed his phone to Zhou Chao.

Zhou Chao took the phone and sat back on the sofa to read the details.

Quickly, he grasped the situation, feeling somewhat helpless about it.

Other people’s kids might have their own quirks, like the famous “My dad is Li Gang!”

But when it cto Zhang Ruoyun, it was a classic case of a dad leading his son into a tough spot. Zhou Chao had known that several years ago, Zhang Ruoyun had been involved in a TV drama called “The HandsButler Team,” thanks to his father’s influential connections. Zhou Chao had even watched a few minutes of it and felt like he could buy a mansion with just the change in his pocket. Little did he know that after several years, more shocking news would emerge.

“It’s quite interesting, I’ll make a call to ask about the situation.” After all, smatters weren’t as simple as they appeared, and the depths of the entertainment industry were hard to fathom. Of course, for Zhou Chao, these things were trivial.

Immediately, he picked up the phone and called Zhang Ruoyun.

At this moment, inside a courtyard building in Shunyi District, Jingdu, Zhang Ruoyun sat on a sofa in the courtyard, lost in thought.

“Honey, your phone!” A crisp and pleasant voice cfrom inside the house.

“Whose call is it? Is it from the company or my dad?” Zhang Ruoyun replied weakly.

Over the past few years, his father had signed him up for numerous TV dramas. Almost every spy-themed drama featured him, and now he felt nauseated every the saw a spy drama script.

This time, he resisted; he didn’t want to be his father’s puppet anymore. However, in exchange, he incurred debts exceeding hundreds of millions.Read Web s Online Free - Fire

“You saved the contact as ‘Young Master Zhou.’ Honey, why haven’t I heard you mention this person before? Is he a sugar daddy in your circle?” A stunning figure emerged from the house, accompanied by a hint of complaint in her tone.

“Young Master Zhou? Quickly givethe phone!” As soon as he heard this name, Zhang Ruoyun’s entire demeanor becmore spirited, and he stood up from the sofa.

“Who is it? Why are you so excited?”

“A benefactor, I’ll tell you later.” He swiftly took the phone and answered the call.

“Helio, Young Master Zhou. I’m sorry, my phone was left inside the house just now, and I kept you waiting.”

The stunning figure watched her husband’s slightly humble attitude with astonishment. This was a demeanor she had never seen in Zhang Ruoyun before. Even in the entertainment industry, where he mingled with big shots, he was always treated with respect. At this moment, she beceven more curious about the identity of the person on the other end of the call.

“I heard you got married recently. You didn’t even givea call to convey the good news. Could it be that you don’t appreciate my congratulations?”

Hearing Zhou Chao’s playful tone, Zhang Ruoyun’s nervous heart eased a bit.

“How could that be? I just thought calling you might trouble you.”

“How could something like this be considered troublesome? Next tyou get married… uh, no, there won’t be a next time. Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, my apologies!”

Hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Zhang Ruoyun felt like a flock of crows had flown over his head.

“When Young Master Zhou returns to Jingdu, I’ll apologize to you in person.” “Apologize for what? You’re not allowed to be so formal anymore. Whenever you have something, remember to givea call. By the way, I owe you a favor. I really don’t like owing people favors. I heard you’ve had sissues recently, so spill the beans—what happened?”

At this point, Zhang Ruoyun had already realized that Zhou Chao had learned about his recent issues online and was willing to help resolve them.

“Zhou Chao, I…”

“Don’t beat around the bush. Can’t you act like a man and telldirectly? What’s the whole story?” Zhou Chao’s tone becmore serious.

Zhang Ruoyun didn’t hesitate and narrated the whole story, every detail exactly as it happened. After he finished, he nervously waited for Zhou Chao’s response.

“Well, having a father like that is just your bad luck. I’ll help you with this matter. Kid, don’t disappointin the future.”

When Zhang Ruoyun heard that Zhou Chao was willing to step in and help, he was deeply moved, and his voice choked up as he replied, “Zhou Chao, if you’re helpinglike this, how can 1 ever repay you?”

“If you truly want to repay the favor, cto my film and television company. You can sign any contract you like, act in whatever you desire, no restrictions!” Zhou Chao had a firm grasp of Zhang Ruoyun’s future prospects. With the success of “Joy of Life” earlier this year and the boost from “Detective Chinatown,” he had quickly beca prominent figure in the entertainment industry.

Zhang Ruoyun, after a moment of silence, said, “Alright, Young Master Zhou, 1’11 cto you for work when the tcomes.”

Originally, Zhou Chao’s offer was a joke, but since Zhang Ruoyun agreed, it beca reality.

“Hahaha, welcto join us. When you arrive in Modu, givea call. I’ll go deal with your matter now.” With that, Zhou Chao hung up the phone.

Yi Xin, who had been waiting anxiously, hurriedly approached Zhang Ruoyun and asked, “What’s going on? Who is this Young Master Zhou that made you so respectful?”

“When I met him, it was during the filming of ‘Joy of Life’ at Xiangshan Film and Television City. I got to know him through Qilin. My understanding of him is just the tip of the iceberg, but even that tip makes him one of the top players in the country.”

Zhang Ruoyun then shared all the information he had learned with Yixin. When she heard everything, Yixin was so amazed that she could almost fit a fist in her open mouth.

“He’s incredibly wealthy! A bottle of wine costs 20 million yuan, and a house is worth over a billion! And he’s so young. Why haven’t I heard of him in China?” “He’s probably keeping a low profile. By the way, Zhou Chao has already said he’ll help with this matter, so you don’t need to worry.”

“Honey, that’s over a billion! Just because you helped him get a signature book, he’s willing to solve your problem. I find it hard to believe!” Yixin looked at Zhang Ruoyun with a skeptical expression.

“Well, let’s wait and see!”
