Chapter 326 - 326:I Won’t Play Again!

“Aren’t you guys here to visit? Why are you still sitting here? Go on!”

Si Cong and the others, observing Zhou Chao’s swift change of demeanor, couldn’t help but feel that they had been careless in choosing their friends.

Si Cong and his group began their tour, leaving Zhou Chao and Jiang Li sitting on the sofa.

“Brother Chao, 1 feel like the house is too big and empty. It might be too spacious for just the two of us.”

“I’ll have Ling Chen find a few maids and a butler. That way, it will feel more lively.”

Hearing this, Jiang Li nodded. She realized that they needed to hire a few housemaids; otherwise, it would be overwhelming for her to handle all the cleaning by herself.

After all, it wasn’t practical to have a cleaning team come in every day. It made more sense to hire a few housemaids who could take care of daily cleaning and cooking tasks.

“Si Cong, in your opinion, which one is better between Zhou Chao’s mansion and Tangong?” Qin Fen leaned against the railing of the second-floor outdoor terrace, gazing down at the expansive garden below.

“They each have their own unique features, but if 1 had to choose, I’d pick this place!”

“Same here!”

Si Cong and Qin Fen exchanged glances and burst into laughter.

“What are you two chatting about so happily here?” Zhou Chao suddenly appeared behind them.

“Hey, how did you get up here? Aren’t you supposed to be downstairs with your lovely wife?” Si Cong teased as he noticed that there was no one else behind Zhou Chao.

“The property management sent over some ingredients, and Jiang Li is watching over them downstairs. 1 came up to chat with you guys. What about Qin Lang and the others?” Zhou Chao explained, taking out the pack of cigarettes he had forcibly taken from Xiao Yang on Hong Kong Island.

“They are playing downstairs. 1 didn’t expect your villa to be so spacious downstairs as well. By the way, this cigarette is pretty good!” Si Cong hadn’t noticed initially, but after taking a puff, he recognized the familiar taste.

“This cigarette is really good, quite different from what we usually smoke. It has a richer and more aromatic flavor,” Qin Fen chimed in.

“No doubt, this is a special edition, and a high-level one at that!” Si Cong, due to his boss’s connections, occasionally met with certain people, so he had some knowledge about these things.

“Haha, this was quite hard to get from Brother Yang!”

“Hey, it’s only because you have such a big face. If it were me, Brother Yang would probably kick me a few times!” Si Cong couldn’t help but marvel at Zhou Chao’s influence.

“Don’t boast too much. It’s just a small favor I did for him. Otherwise, he would have given it to me. You know, Brother Yang is also a chain smoker.”

Hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Si Cong and Qin Fen looked at him inquisitively. After all, with Xiao Yang’s status, they rarely had the opportunity to interact with him.

“Come on, spill the beans. Can you share the details? Is it something you can talk about?” Driven by curiosity, Si Cong finally asked.

“It’s nothing much, just a small favor 1 did on Hong Kong Island!” Zhou Chao then recounted the whole story to the two of them.

Qin Fen didn’t show much of an expression upon hearing the story, but Si Cong seemed a bit puzzled.

“Hmm? Si Cong, is there something on your mind?” Zhou Chao asked curiously when he noticed Si Cong’s perplexed expression.

“Chao, have you ever seen any assessment that would require someone of Brother Yang’s level to personally get involved?” Si Cong subtly expressed his doubts and chose not to say more.

Zhou Chao quickly ran through the details in his mind and realized what Si Cong was getting at.

“I always felt something was off at the time, but 1 couldn’t figure it out. Now it makes sense!” Zhou Chao muttered to himself.

“It’s possible that when you’re directly involved, you can lose sight of things, but those of us on the sidelines often have a clearer view,” Qin Fen commented from the side.

Zhou Chao and Si Cong both nodded in agreement.

At that moment, Jiang Li approached with three freshly squeezed watermelon juices.

“You’ve been chatting for quite a while. Have some watermelon juice!” She announced her presence before she was even visible.

Zhou Chao hurried over and took the tray from Jiang Li’s hands.

“You could have just called us over. Why serve it personally? It makes them look bad!” Zhou Chao said, glancing at Si Cong and Qin Fen.

Upon hearing this, Si Cong and Qin Fen felt like they had been punched. They gritted their teeth and accepted the drinks from Zhou Chao.

“Thank you very much!” They both said with clenched teeth.

Jiang Li, watching the interaction between Zhou Chao and the others, couldn’t help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

“You can go downstairs for now. Cali us when it’s time to eat!”

“Sure!” Jiang Li nodded and carried the tray back downstairs.

“Married life is so great!” Si Cong couldn’t help but comment as they watched Jiang Li leave. While he was not short of female companions, most of them were just passing through, for fun.

As for Qin Fen, he simply smiled. He had different thoughts about his future partner; at least, he wouldn’t be as wild and free as Si Cong.

“Speaking of which, Zhou Chao, where’s Li Yang? Why haven’t we seen him?”

“You mean Big Bro? He called me. He’s in Hawaii with his wife and can’t make it back!” Zhou Chao replied, and the image of a plump figure popped into his mind.

“By the way, Si Cong, what about Lao Piao? Why didn’t he come with you?”

“He went out to play. I heard he’s hanging out with some of his live-streaming friends and probably sunbathing at the beach in Lu City right now!”

“With his physique, sunbathing might actually help him lose weight!” Qin Fen suddenly interjected, earning laughter from Zhou Chao and Si Cong.

“Let’s go see what Qin Lang and the others are up to. They’ve been in the basement for so long!”

The three of them took the elevator directly down to the basement, and as soon as they exited the elevator, they heard Qin Lang and his friends shouting.

“Can you handle this, Yang Shuo? How many rounds have we played? Just let me handle it.” Yin Keting’s booming voice reached their ears.

You should step aside. Your skills are even worse. Who was just instantly KO’d and couldn’t even use their special move? If I were you, I’d dig a hole and bury myself.”

“Could you two stop bickering? All you’re doing is making it less enjoyable for me. Being invincible can be so lonely!” Qin Lang chimed in, feigning emotion. If it weren’t for the smile on his face that Zhou Chao noticed, he might have taken it seriously.

“Qin Fen, is this a family tradition? You’re really good at pretending,” Si Cong teased Qin Fen.

“When it comes to pretending, who doesn’t know that I’m one of the best? If there were rankings, I’d at least be a King-level expert!” Qin Fen retorted with a smirk. They were all used to this banter.

Si Cong, who had been all smiles a moment ago, suddenly looked like he had bitten into a bitter gourd.

The playful exchange between the two made Zhou Chao burst into laughter.

Meanwhile, Qin Lang and his friends, who were competing for the game, heard Zhou Chao and the others approaching. They all stopped their bickering.

As Zhou Chao and his friends approached, they realized that Qin Lang and his friends were playing the King of Fighters series, a game that held a special place in their childhood memories.

“Yang Shuo, step aside. Let me challenge Qin Lang!” Si Cong’s playful nature came to the fore.

Yang Shuo, seeing Si Cong’s enthusiasm, quickly stood up.

“Let’s set the ground rules, Qin Lang. No going easy on anyone. No need to save face. If you lose, you lose; if you win, you win. We’re all friends here, and there’s no point in holding back!” Zhou Chao, standing behind them, wanted to make it more interesting.

“That’s right, Qin Lang. Have fun, and try to land a slap on our Young Master Cong’s face.”

“No one will know who’s going win. Let me finish with Qin Lang first, and then you can take your turn, Qin Fen!” Si Cong didn’t want both of them to gang up on him, so he wanted to face Qin Lang first.

The game started quickly. Both Si Cong and Qin Lang chose the same characters, lori Yagami, Rugal Bernstein, and Kim Kaphwan.

In the first round, they both picked Rugal. As the game began, Qin Lang immediately launched an attack, while Si Cong was on the defensive.

“I can’t believe it! What just happened?” Zhou Chao was momentarily stunned, then he saw Qin Lang’s health bar drop significantly after Si Cong’s quick moves.

As he regained his focus, Zhou Chao carefully observed the gameplay.

Si Cong smoothly manipulated his character, lori Yagami, causing him to slide directly in front of Qin Lang. In an instant, Si Cong executed a flawless combo, finishing with a powerful move that left Qin Lang severely damaged.

“Young Master Cong, what kind of moves are those? You’re showing off!” Qin Lang was bewildered by Si Cong’s impressive skills, unable to comprehend what had just happened.

“I might play and mess around, but I don’t joke about my skill!”

Soon, Si Cong and Qin Lang’s match ended, with Si Cong’s Kim Kaphwan winning the final round, bathing the screen in sunlight.

“So easy!” Si Cong turned to taunt Qin Fen and Zhou Chao.

“Si Cong, what was that move you just used? How did lori Yagami slide right over?” Qin Fen asked, genuinely curious about the technique.

“Hahaha, that’s the ‘Ghost Step,’ a simple move to execute!” Si Cong began to explain it to them.

“I didn’t expect the playboy to enjoy arcade games!”

“Enough of this nonsense. Which one of you is up next? It doesn’t matter; you’re all easy prey!” Si Cong was feeling cocky and asked for his next challenger.

Qin Fen was about to step up, but Zhou Chao took the initiative and said, “Let me do it.”

“Chao, just so you know, 1 won’t go easy on you!” Si Cong warned Zhou Chao, as if to prevent any misunderstandings.

No problem. Whether you go easy or not, it doesn’t matter!”

Si Cong gave Zhou Chao a puzzled look.

They quickly selected their characters, just as before.

However, the game quickly came to an end, and it didn’t even last for five minutes. At this moment, Si Cong wore an incredulous expression on his face. He glanced at Zhou Chao beside him and then looked at Qin Fen and the others behind him.

“What the heck, I got wiped out by him alone?!” Si Cong yelled in frustration.

“Hahaha!” The entire basement erupted in laughter.

“You really surprised me. 1 thought you couldn’t play, but it turns out you’re the real deal. Well, I’m done. It’s not fun anymore!” Si Cong stood up without paying attention to the others’ reactions.

Qin Fen was about to mock Si Cong, but then they heard Jiang Li’s voice.

“I’ve been looking for you guys everywhere. Turns out you’re all here.. It’s time for dinner!”
