At this moment, Zhou Chao was chatting in the study at The Palms Residence.

“Lao Piao, are you still up for it? We agreed to rank up together!”

“Young Master Zhou, give me a moment. I’m about to start a meeting here. It’ll be done in no more than 10 minutes!”

“Alright, take your time, and let me know when you’re done!” Zhou Chao ended the voice call and received a message from Ling Chen.

“You did a great job! It’s done so quickly!” Zhou Chao read the words on the screen, a smile appearing on his face.

Seeing that Ling Chen hadn’t called, Zhou Chao knew that the matter was not yet resolved. He wasn’t in a hurry, as he believed Ling Chen would handle it quickly.

About ten minutes passed, and Zhou Chao was still browsing short videos when he received a message from Lao Piao.

Zhou Chao immediately opened the League game and found that Lao Piao was already online.

“Let’s do this, let’s do this!”

Lao Piao sent a game invitation, and when Zhou Chao entered the game, he saw another familiar player—Xiao Ning!

“Hey, Xiao Ning, you’re here too!”

“Good afternoon, Young Master Zhou!” Xiao Ning replied cautiously.

“Alright, what about your boss? What’s Si Cong been up to lately?”

Zhou Chao inquired about Si Cong, whom he hadn’t contacted for a while.

“Our boss, I’m not sure what he’s been busy with lately, but…” Xiao Ning paused for a moment, unsure whether she should continue.

“What’s there to hesitate about? Si Cong has had some investment issues recently and is short on funds. We don’t know if he managed to raise enough!” Lao Piao, who had also switched to voice chat at some point, shared his thoughts. Zhou Chao contemplated this information.

“Alright, you two wait for me. Maybe play a game first. I’ll give Si Cong a call to check the situation!”

“Sure, Young Master Zhou. But could you please not mention it was me who told you?” Xiao Ning said nervously. If Si Cong found out, he might scold him.

“Don’t worry, I won’t mention you. If I were to say a name, I’d mention Lao Piao.”

“Oh my gosh! Please No, Young Master Zhou!” Lao Piao, facing a potential blame game, was already employing the tactic of begging for mercy.

“Alright, 1’11 be back in a bit!” Zhou Chao exited the game and took out his phone. He searched through his contacts and found Si Cong’s name, then made a call.

The phone rang several times before Si Cong answered the call.

“Helio, Chao, what’s up?” Once he answered the phone, Si Cong’s voice on the other end sounded weary.

“Si Cong, why didn’t you say anything when something went wrong? If someone hadn’t informed me today, I wouldn’t even know you were in trouble!” Zhou Chao could tell from Si Cong’s voice that this situation was definitely troublesome.

“I didn’t want this to happen either. Everything happened so fast, and I haven’t even had a chance to react. Right now, I’m just trying to clean up this mess!” Si Cong’s voice sounded somewhat hoarse, conveying his anxiety.

“All, save those troubles for when I have time to chat in person. How much funding do you need now?”

“I still need about 100 million.” Zhou Chao was surprised by Si Cong’s response.

“Why do you still need so much? Didn’t your old man give you some money to cover the gap?”

“Well, every family has its own difficulties. My dad transferred 50 million to me, but it’s still not enough.”

“Alright, send me your account details. I’ll transfer some money to you. Don’t waste any more time. Get this sorted out quickly!”

Si Cong remained silent for a moment before speaking. “Thanks, brother.”

“Sure.” Zhou Chao hung up the phone and soon received Si Cong’s account details. He immediately transferred 100 million to him. After all, Zhou Chao currently had billions in liquid assets.

Shortly after, Si Cong called back. They exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Si Cong mentioned that once this matter was resolved, he would treat Zhou Chao to a meal. Zhou Chao didn’t pay much attention to it, and after a brief chat, he hung up the phone.

“Let’s play some games! After all, a man stays young at heart. Let’s conquer those uncharted ranks together!” Zhou Chao quickly opened the game and found that Lao Piao and Xiao Ning were still in a match. Zhou Chao had no choice but to browse the in-game store and see if there were any cool skins.

After about five minutes, Lao Piao sent a game invitation, and Zhou Chao accepted it.

“You’re done so quickly, Zhou Chao?” Lao Piao felt like he had only played for about 10 minutes, and Zhou Chao had already finished his business.

“It wasn’t anything too complicated. I wrapped it up in no time,” Zhou Chao replied casually, leaving Lao Piao and Xiao Ning stunned by his efficiency.

While Si Cong was struggling with a hectic situation, Zhou Chao resolved it effortlessly. It had been a while since they last met, and this made both of them feel somewhat estranged.

When Zhou Chao noticed that both of them were silent, he thought there might be a communication issue and called out, “Lao Piao, can you hear me? Why aren’t you guys saying anything?”

Zhou Chao’s voice brought both of them back from their astonishment.

“I’m here, Zhou Chao!” Lao Piao quickly responded.

“Yeah, I thought my mic was acting up for a moment. Let’s begin. Today, take me to a high rank!”

Lao Piao immediately clicked start, and the three of them embarked on a five-hour ranked match. Even Lao Piao postponed his evening livestream for this extended gaming session, which continued until well past 10 o’clock. Zhou Chao began to feel a hint of hunger, prompting them to finally conclude the game.

“Lao Piao, let’s take a break from gaming and grab some dinner. We haven’t eaten yet!”

“Sure thing, Zhou Chao!” The two of them, who had been hungry for a while, sat down at the table. The dishes were still untouched and had already gone cold.

“Whew, I’m exhausted! But it’s not bad. After playing for two or three more days, I should be able to reach the challenger league!” Zhou Chao looked at his Diamond 2 rank and smiled.

“Grumble-” His stomach growled untimely, and Zhou Chao immediately ordered some barbecue takeout on his phone, preparing for a hearty meal.

He went to the first-floor living room, laid on the sofa, and looked at the photos that Jiang Li had taken during their leisure time. There were selfies, scenic shots, and many pictures of children. Over the past few days, they had managed to chat whenever they had some free time. Zhou Chao knew that Jiang Li had been exhausted lately. Every night, she would fall asleep as soon as she lay in bed, and he could see that she had slimmed down a bit.

For the past two days, Zhou Chao dragged both of them into ranked matches. Lao Piao had taken several days off directly, and as for Xiao Ning, the club knew that she was accompanying Zhou Chao in gaming and didn’t inquire further.

So, the three of them played together for three or four days, and Zhou Chao successfully climbed to the highest league rank. Feeling a bit conceited, he took a couple of photos and posted them on his social media with a caption.

“Lao Piao, Xiao Ning, you’ve worked hard these past few days. In a few days, I’ll invite you both to my house as guests!”

Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s words, both of them smiled and quickly said, “Thank you, Young Master Zhou!”

“All right, you’ve all worked hard these past few days. Go get some rest!”

After saying this, Zhou Chao exited the game, grabbed a bottle of Fiji mineral water from the fridge, and drank it all in one gulp.

Just as he was about to go rest and take a nap, the phone on the table rang.

“Hello, Si Cong, is everything settled?”

“Yeah, everything’s resolved. Do you have time tomorrow? Let’s go out for a meal!” Hearing Si Cong’s somewhat cheerful tone, Zhou Chao knew that his matter had been resolved.

“No problem, just send me the location when the time comes!”

“Great, that’s settled then. I won’t disturb you any longer!” Si Cong concluded the call..
