Chapter 697: Return to the Capital!



Nightfall descended, and the atmosphere lights along the Hai Riverbanks illuminated, complemented by the dazzling colors of the Ferris wheel, making the entire Ferris wheel look magnificent.

As the Ferris wheel slowly revolved, the view gradually ascended. Excited, Jiang Li took out her phone and began capturing the scene.

“It’s so beautiful!” As the Ferris wheel turned, Zhou Chao and Jiang Li’s cabin soon ascended into the air, nearing the highest point.

Seeing the tiny cars below resembling ants, Jiang Li nervously grabbed Zhou Chao’s arm.

Feeling her arm trembling slightly, Zhou Chao looked at Jiang Li teasingly and said, “Ah Li, are you afraid of heights?”

“Who… who’s afraid of heights? I’m not afraid!” Although her tone sounded strong, the anxiety in her eyes couldn’t be concealed.

With a mischievous smile, Zhou Chao suggested, “Then let’s go to the window and have a look!”

“I won’t go!” Jiang Li shook her head hurriedly.

Seeing Zhou Chao’s playful expression, Jiang Li realized she had been teased.

“Brother Chao, you’re getting naughtier!” Jiang Li pouted, feeling slightly annoyed.

“Am I? I had no idea!”

Jiang Li, feeling irritated, lightly pounded Zhou Chao’s chest a few times, but he quickly pulled her into his arms.

Jiang Li calmed down, and the two of them quietly admired the distant night scenery.

Unfortunately, beautiful moments are always short-lived. After about half an hour, Zhou Chao and Jiang Li returned to the starting point.

As they disembarked from the Ferris wheel and strolled around, they continued discussing the beautiful scenery they had just seen. They noticed Lin Wu sitting alone playing with his phone, occasionally showing a happy smile.

Zhou Chao and Jiang Li exchanged a glance, then slowed their pace, quietly approaching Lin Wu from both sides.

The two looked over and found Lin Wu chatting happily with his own wife, Li Qian.

After a while, Lin Wu noticed the presence of two more pairs of feet beside him and quickly looked up.

Seeing Zhou Chao and Jiang Li looking at him meaningfully, Lin Wu felt a bit nervous and said, “Boss, when did you guys arrive?”

“Not too long ago, just when you called her ‘baby’!” Zhou Chao joked.

Hearing this, Lin Wu’s face instantly turned red. He felt a bit embarrassed and said, “Boss, you’re being unfair. You were eavesdropping on my conversation!”

“Ahem, we weren’t eavesdropping. Jiang Li and I were standing there openly watching. You were just too engrossed in your conversation, right, Ah Li?”

“That’s right, we’ve been standing here for quite a while. You didn’t even notice us, so it’s not our fault!” Jiang Li chimed in playfully.

Hearing their banter, Lin Wu could only shake his head helplessly. He wasn’t angry, just a little embarrassed that Zhou Chao and Jiang Li had witnessed his conversation with his wife.

Zhou Chao patted Lin Wu’s shoulder with a smile. “Let’s go back to the hotel and chat with your wife slowly.”

Then the three of them hailed a taxi on the roadside and returned to the Italian-style street, driving back to the hotel in the “Four Sons” they had parked earlier.

Coincidentally, as soon as Zhou Chao and his group returned to the hotel, they ran into Lao Guo and his entourage returning from outside.

“Young Master Zhou, what a coincidence, you’re back too!” Lao Guo greeted them with a smile.

“Yeah, we just went for a stroll at the Eye of Tianjin and came back. Did you guys just finish dinner?”

Zhou Chao glanced at the people behind Lao Guo and saw his previous apprentices and Yu Qian among them.

Lao Guo nodded. “We just grabbed something nearby.”

“Alright, we’ve been out all afternoon and are a bit tired. We’ll go back to our rooms and rest first.”

“Take care, Young Master Zhou,” Lao Guo said respectfully.

Yu Qian chimed in agreement.

Zhou Chao nodded slightly, then led Zhou Li and Lin Wu straight into the elevator, waving goodbye to Lao Guo and the others.

As the elevator doors closed, one of Lao Guo’s apprentices muttered quietly, “Who is this guy? Why does he act so grand?”

Lao Guo overheard the comment and turned back to look at the speaker, who happened to be his apprentice Bingzi!

“Bingzi, come here!” Lao Guo beckoned with a stern expression.

Seeing his master’s darkened face, Bingzi couldn’t help but shrink back, but he still walked over to Lao Guo’s side.

Lao Guo then raised his right hand and gave Bingzi two smacks on the head.

“Ouch, master, be gentle!” Bingzi exclaimed, covering his head.

“Gentle? If I hadn’t held back, it would have been much worse. Since all of you apprentices are here, let me make this clear!”

Lao Guo paused for a moment, scanning the group.

“Some of you may know him, and some might have heard of him just now. Regardless, I don’t want to hear any disrespectful words about him from any of you. If anyone offends him in any way, you’ll see how 1 deal with you!”

After speaking, Lao Guo glanced at his bewildered apprentices, then took Yu Qian, Xiao Yuexue, and Sun Yue with him as they took the elevator upstairs.

Leaving behind a group of puzzled apprentices looking at each other.

“Did you guys understand what Master meant just now? Who exactly is this Zhou guy, and why does Master treat him with such respect?” Bingzi rubbed his still-sore head, looking puzzled..
