“Director Li, hello, this is Ling Chen from Dragonfly Group. I apologize for interrupting you amidst your busy schedule!”

Upon hearing this voice, Chen Li inexplicably felt that something was amiss.

Though his mind was racing with thoughts, his mouth didn’t cease, “Haha, not at all, it’s my honor to know President Ling!”

Both were skilled in pleasantries, exchanging a few compliments. Chen Li didn’t want to prolong the conversation and went straight to the point.

“I wonder if President Ling has some cooperation in mind today or if there’s something else!”

“Director Li, to be frank, there is indeed another matter.”

Listening to Ling Chen’s somewhat weighty words, Chen Li’s heart skipped a beat, realizing that there might be some unfriendly intentions behind the call.

After a pause of a few seconds, Ling Chen’s voice came through.

“Director Li, our boss has encountered some unpleasant matters in your area recently, which, coincidentally, are somewhat related to you. Therefore… he specifically asked me to make this call and invite you to dinner!”

As Ling Chen’s voice trailed off, Chen Li was somewhat surprised and asked, “Your boss?”

“That’s right, my boss. I wonder if Director Li has the time?”

Chen Li fell silent, never expecting there was another boss behind Dragonfly Group. Yet, it made sense; to rise so rapidly in just two years required some strength and background.

But thinking that such a big shot was unhappy in his territory, and it somehow involved him, he realized it must be because someone from his company or some high-level personnel had offended them. And the matter wasn’t small; otherwise, they wouldn’t have made this call.

In name, it was an invitation for a meal, but in reality, it was to have him go over and handle this matter. If it wasn’t handled well, he didn’t know what the consequences would be.

Although Chen Li didn’t know much about the internal workings of Dragonfly Group, he knew that his company, Yili, was not enough to impress them. Just thinking about the photo his friend showed him (a photo taken when the Torch Foundation was established, featuring Ling Chen, Xiaomang, Lao Wang, and the mysterious guest), his hand holding the phone trembled.

“Director Li?” Ling Chen called softly, noticing Chen Li’s silence.

“I, I’m available anytime. I just don’t know where your boss is, and how I can contact him!”

“My boss is currently at the Huitengxile Grassland Scenic Area. I’ll send you a phone number shortly, and you can contact him directly!”

“May I ask who this person is?”

“He’s the boss’s personal bodyguard and assistant! His name is Lin Wu. Just explain the purpose when you contact him!”

Chen Li wanted to inquire about Ling Chen’s boss’s preferences, but in the end, he didn’t ask.

“That’s fine, thank you, President Ling!”

“No trouble at all. Perhaps we’ll meet often in the future. I won’t disturb Director Li anymore; I’ll hang up now!”

After hanging up the phone, Chen Li pondered Ling Chen’s final words for a moment, but couldn’t grasp their meaning.

“Thinking about this is futile. For now, let’s handle this matter properly before anything else. I wonder what exactly is going on!”

*Ding dong!* Chen Li’s phone on the table chimed, receiving a text message.

Chen Li picked it up and saw a set of phone numbers, with a message following, “Director Li, this is Ling Chen. Here’s my phone number!”

After updating the contact, Chen Li called his driver from the landline, “Xiao Wang, check the car. We’re heading to Huitengxile Grassland!”

“Director Li, when shall we depart?”

Glancing at the time, it was almost half past ten. “Wait for me downstairs in ten minutes!”

“Okay, Director Li!”

After arranging the trip, Chen Li called in his secretary and asked her to prepare for the outing, having a beautiful woman by his side would be more convenient.

Meanwhile, Zhou Chao and Si Cong were leisurely enjoying tea and admiring the snowscape in the hotel’s tea room.

Seeing Zhou Chao’s carefree demeanor, Si Cong couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Young Master Zhou, you don’t seem to be in a hurry at all!”

“What’s there to hurry about? What must come will come!” Zhou Chao replied with a faint smile.

“Are you implying that someone from Yili will come here personally? That’s unlikely. Even if they are a big shot, they should have some restraint…” Si Cong’s confidence wavered as he spoke.

“I don’t know either. Let’s just wait quietly. If they don’t come… I suppose you’d be even happier!” Zhou Chao teased.

Before Si Cong could swallow the tea in his mouth, Zhou Chao’s words stung him, “Ahem, how is that possible, Young Master Zhou? What nonsense are you talking about!”

Ignoring Si Cong’s reaction, Zhou Chao glanced at Lin Wu nearby. “You go to the hotel and book the best banquet hall, for about five or six people!”

“Alright, boss!” Lin Wu left the tea room amidst Si Cong’s puzzled gaze.

“It seems like you’re very confident, Young Master Zhou!”

“Mm-hmm, that’s how confident I am, hahaha!” Zhou Chao chuckled proudly. He glanced at the phone in his left hand, but unfortunately, Si Cong didn’t notice.

Lin Wu returned quickly after going out, making Si Cong grin. “Young Master Zhou, how about we make a bet? Let’s bet whether that person will come in person or not. I bet they won’t. If I lose, I’ll treat you to lunch. If I win, remember to bring me along for the next investment opportunity!”

“Humph, your plans are quite ambitious. It seems the Wang family’s genes are quite powerful!”

Upon hearing this, even Si Cong, who usually had a thick skin, couldn’t help but blush. “Who said that? I’m treating you to lunch because I lost. How can you say that about me?”

“Alright, alright, it was me being overly suspicious. Let’s do as you said!” Zhou Chao didn’t pay much attention to these things, treating them as just a seasoning of life.

“Alright, it’s settled!” Si Cong said excitedly, looking very confident.

Seeing Si Cong so sure of himself, Lin Wu shook his head beside them, muttering quietly, “Why is Young Master Cong so foolish? When has the boss ever engaged in an uncertain battle? Sigh!”

Although Lin Wu spoke softly, with only the three of them in the room, Si Cong heard it. His smile froze instantly.

With an unbelieving look, Si Cong stared at Zhou Chao and asked, “Young Master Zhou, you don’t happen to know if that person is coming in person, do you?”

Zhou Chao didn’t hide anything and calmly nodded.

“Ah, I’m really foolish! Why didn’t I use my brain? If I had known, I would have bet that the person would come in person!” Si Cong lamented, regretting missing a chance to strike it rich.

Seeing Si Cong occasionally glancing at him, Zhou Chao shook his head helplessly. “Alright, alright, stop fooling around. If anyone else sees, it’s embarrassing not just for you but for me too. If there are any investment projects in the future, I’ll bring you along!”

Si Cong, who had been lamenting just a moment ago, suddenly changed his demeanor, smiling brightly. “Young Master Zhou, you said it yourself. I’ve taken note!”

“Learned a lesson, huh? The wisdom of old folks is indeed never wrong. The crying child gets the milk!” Lin Wu quietly typed this on his phone’s memo app.

Zhou Chao couldn’t help but roll his eyes at him, choosing to ignore Si Cong and sipping his tea slowly.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, an hour had gone by, bringing noon closer and closer.

“Young Master Zhou, is that person not coming? It’s almost lunchtime.”

As Si Cong’s words trailed off, Lin Wu’s phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID showing a number from Hohhot, Lin Wu answered the call directly, as he already anticipated it. After a brief exchange, they hung up.

“Boss, the person has arrived. I’ve arranged them in the dining room!”

Zhou Chao set down his tea cup, a faint smile appearing on his face. “Let’s go, we’ll meet this bigwig in the dairy industry!”
