欧美成人AA久久狼窝五月丁香

Upon hearing Jiang Hai’s words, everyone was shocked.

KE Law Firm was among the top ten global law firms, and having the necessary funds didn’t guarantee access to their services. Reports suggested that their annual revenue reached billions last year, and their staff consisted of highly skilled lawyers.

“Thank you so much!” Jiang Hai excitedly shook Zhou Chao’s hand.

“As long as 1 can help, it’s no big deal,” Zhou Chao said calmly, but he glanced at Yang Feng out of the corner of his eye.

“Young Master Zhou, how did KE Law Firm arrange for assistance so quickly? Do you have friends in there?” Li Daoming, who was sitting nearby, looked at Zhou Chao with a hint of doubt, and even Zhang Liang put down his teacup.

“No, I’ve never met anyone from the law firm. It’s just that this law firm belongs to me.”

“Oh, it belongs to you? What! You own KE?” Li Daoming, who had been about to sit down, suddenly couldn’t react. He looked at Zhou Chao with disbelief.

Even Zhang Liang’s face showed a hint of surprise.

“Yes, for some time now. 1 was actually planning to go visit my company under it and have a look around,” Zhou Chao chuckled inwardly. He wasn’t going to spill all the beans so easily.

Although the annual revenue of the law firm may not be much compared to the people sitting there, the firm’s legal prowess was unquestionable, and it was something most people could only envy.

“Mr. Yang, don’t just sit there drinking tea. How about you wash down your words from earlier with some tea?” Zhou Chao looked at Yang Feng with a playful smile.

“Youngster, don’t push your luck!” Yang Feng slammed the table, stood up, and glared at Zhou Chao with anger in his eyes.

“Hey, hey, are you starting to rely on your age? You’re a bit lacking, I’m afraid!”

“Bang!” Yang Feng slapped the table and stood up, full of anger. However, his outburst was quickly interrupted by Li Daoming.

“Lao Yang, that was a bit too much! This isn’t your office, and your behavior was indeed rude.”

Yang Feng, upon hearing Li Daoming’s words, quickly came to his senses.

He realized that this wasn’t his own office, and his actions had been somewhat inappropriate.

“President Zhang, 1 apologize for my rudeness. It’s just that this kid…”

Yang Feng’s words were cut short by Li Daoming.

“Lao Yang, as they mentioned, apologize once the issue is resolved. Our respected President Yang’s words won’t have any impact if they’re ineffective!”

“You!” Yang Feng frowned at Li Daoming’s words.

At the same time, Jiang Hai chimed in, saying, “Lao Yang, it’s a bet. Admit defeat and apologize!”

“What they both said is right. A person should keep their word. Once you lose your credibility, it’s hard to rebuild trust,” Zhang Liang lightly commented, causing Yang Feng’s face to turn ashen.

He looked at Zhou Chao with a deep breath, suppressing the anger inside him.

“I’m sorry!” Yang Feng apologized in a loud voice, not deliberately speaking softly. After all, his pride had already been damaged, and there was no need for him to hide further.

Zhou Chao looked at Yang Feng’s disgruntled face and burst into laughter.

“Hehe, Mr. Yang, your apology doesn’t seem very sincere, but 1 don’t mind. Hahaha!”

“You!” Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Yang Feng’s already sullen face became even more unsightly. He was about to stand up and leave, but when he saw Zhang Liang sitting calmly beside him, he quietly sat back down and sipped his tea.

Observing the changes in Yang Feng’s expression, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but admire the composure of someone who dealt with significant matters. Yang Feng’s rapid change of emotions was faster than a chameleon’s.

“Well, let’s congratulate Mr. Jiang on the progress of his matter. We look forward to a successful resolution!” The butler, Ah Fu, quickly refilled everyone’s teacups.

They all raised their cups in acknowledgment.

After drinking their tea, Zhang Liang, Li Daoming, and the others continued chatting, and even Yang Feng joined in. Zhou Chao couldn’t quite grasp the purpose behind these interactions for a while.

It took Zhou Chao a while to figure it out.

“It seems that self-interest is the eternal truth.”

Lunchtime arrived quickly, and the butler, Ah Fu, whispered in Zhang Liang’s ear.

“It’s getting late. Let’s all go inside for a meal and see what those young fellows are up to. Young Zhou, you can meet them later!”

Zhou Chao didn’t react immediately but nodded after a moment.

Then, everyone got up and headed towards the inner room. Zhou Chao intentionally walked at the back, and Li Daoming understood that Zhou Chao had something to ask.

“Uncle Li, what did President Zhang mean just now?”

“Oh, it’s because Zhang Liang’s son and his friends are here today too. They probably think you young people would have common topics to discuss.”

“Heh, does that mean they look down on me?” Zhou Chao immediately grasped the implication of Li Daoming’s words – that he wasn’t worthy of mingling with the others.

“I don’t think so. His son has a keen eye, and he wouldn’t say something like that. It’s more likely that he wants you young people to get to know each other.”

Zhou Chao nodded and didn’t say anything more. The two of them walked into the inner room.

Inside, Zhou Chao realized that this place had an entirely different style of decoration compared to his own building. The interior had a more traditional Chinese style, with elements reflecting Huaxia culture.

Upon entering the dining room, they saw a large round table. Zhou Chao sat next to Li Daoming, and Yang Feng, who he didn’t get along with, happened to sit across from him.

After giving Yang Feng a quick glance, Zhou Chao shifted his focus away.

“Today, let’s enjoy ourselves and taste the wine Zhou gave us earlier. We’re in for a treat!”

Only to see that the butler, Ah Fu, had already opened three bottles of red wine, poured them into three decanters, and placed them on the side.

“All Fu, why haven’t they come yet? What are they doing?” Zhang Liang, noticing that his son and the others hadn’t appeared yet, looked at the butler, Ah Fu, who was standing nearby.

“Master, I’ll call Young Master later this afternoon,” All Fu replied and prepared to go downstairs. However, after taking a few steps, he saw Young Master Zhang Wenxuan entering with two others.

“Dad, uncles, sorry for the delay!” Zhang Wenxuan apologized as soon as he arrived.

“Hurry up, you’re getting more and more reckless. You made your elders wait for you!”

“It’s okay, kid,” Jiang Hai intervened. “A/Iistakes happen.”

“Kid? Look at Young Zhou here, and then at these guys. They’re utterly useless!”

At this moment, Zhou Chao also noticed that Zhang Liang, Jiang Hai, Yang Feng, and the others had a unique connection, suggesting they were in regular contact.

Zhou Chao saw three individuals coming upstairs. The first was a man around 180 cm tall, with a delicate face, a slender build, and a handsome appearance the typical “young and fresh” look.

“Oh, what a coincidence!” Zhou Chao couldn’t help but wear an amused expression when he saw the person following behind. At the same time, he gave Yang Feng a meaningful glance.

As Zhang Wenxuan entered the dining room, he noticed Zhou Chao sitting next to Li Daoming, and a hint of surprise flickered in his eyes, but he didn’t dwell on it.

He found an empty seat and sat down.

Meanwhile, the person trailing behind Zhang Wenxuan saw Zhou Chao’s figure and showed a hint of astonishment mixed with fear in his eyes.

“Fan’er, why are you standing there? Come over and take a seat!” Zhang Wenxuan waved and pointed to a spot not far from Zhou Chao.

Fan’er swallowed nervously and approached Zhou Chao cautiously, paying no mind to the gazes of Zhang Liang, Yang Feng, and the others. With great respect, he greeted Zhou Chao, “Young Master Zhou, what a coincidence!”

“It’s indeed a coincidence. I didn’t expect Yang Feng to be your father. Has his personality been inherited by you? He can’t change, but you can change for the better!” The newcomer was none other than Yang Fan, whom Zhou Chao had met in Jingdu not long ago.

“Yes, thank you for your concern, Young Master Zhou,” Yang Fan replied, a faint smile appearing on his face.

“Please find a seat for yourself.”

The conversation between the two shocked everyone present, even Zhang Liang was wide-eyed in amazement, and Yang Feng showed a hint of panic.

Yang Feng remembered that Yang Fan had told him about encountering a young man in Jingdu who could confront Li Yao head-on and even beat him. However, he never imagined that the person he had provoked was none other than Zhou Chao.

Seeing everyone staring at him in astonishment, Zhou Chao cleared his throat lightly and brought their thoughts back to the present.

Sitting beside Zhou Chao, Li Daoming thoughtfully cleared his throat. After all, he was the one who knew Zhou Chao the best in the room. However, after pondering for a moment, he couldn’t figure out what was going on.

Meanwhile, Yang Feng, from somewhere, produced a bottle of white liquor, held up his glass, and approached Zhou Chao, carrying the bottle.

“Young Master Zhou, I apologize for any previous offenses. 1 hope you can overlook them,” he said as he poured the liquor into his glass.

The glass he used was no ordinary one but a large red wine glass. Yang Feng filled the glass to the brim.

“Young Master Zhou, I’ll drink first, please feel free!” Yang Feng raised the glass and started to down the liquor. In no time, he finished the entire glass.

Seeing that Zhou Chao remained motionless, Yang Feng refilled the glass.

“Young Master Zhou, please, have a drink!” Yang Feng tilted his head back and drank again.

Yang Feng’s actions left Zhang Liang and the others momentarily stunned. However, Li Daoming, sitting beside Zhou Chao, had regained his composure. He whispered to Zhou Chao, “Xiao Zhou, show him some respect. Lao Yang has been our friend for many years. This is enough.”

Zhou Chao nodded slightly in response and picked up the glass in front of him, taking a small sip.

“Alright, Mr. Yang, you’ve had enough to drink. Please go back to your seat. Today, it’s Mr. Zhang’s treat, so let’s not spoil the mood for everyone.” Yang Feng, holding an empty glass, heard Zhou Chao’s words and quickly bowed before stepping back.

However, he stumbled, and Yang Fan was there to support him, preventing him from embarrassing himself by falling to the ground.

At this point, Zhang Liang, Jiang Hai, and the others finally regained their composure. They were also quite surprised but managed to control their emotions. On the other hand, Zhang Wenxuan and Jiang Yang, the sons of Zhang Liang and Jiang Hai, had their eyes wide open, staring at Zhou Chao.

“Ahem, ahem! Let’s eat, everyone.. The food is getting cold!”
