“Boss, Li Wei is already on the way to the airport!” Lin Wu, who was driving, glanced at his phone and received the message. He turned to Zhou Chao, who was sitting beside him.

“Alright,” Zhou Chao nodded with closed eyes.

It was now 12:30, and the two of them were en route to the airport. Before leaving, Zhou Chao had called Ye Zhengfeng to discuss his plans, and Ye Zhengfeng was supportive of his decision.

“Boss, we’ve arrived!” Awakening from his short nap, Zhou Chao opened his eyes and glanced outside, noticing that the car had already come to a stop in the parking lot.

“Let’s go!” Zhou Chao got out of the car and opened the door for his luggage, while Lin Wu followed suit.

The two of them arrived at the VIP lounge at the airport, where they found Li Wei waiting for them.

“Boss!” Li Wei hurriedly greeted them.

“Let’s go; we can board the plane now.” Li Wei handed their tickets to Zhou Chao.

“Boss, why are you personally making this trip? Is there something important?”

“Well, you’ll find out soon. When the plane lands, you’ll get to meet that formidable woman I mentioned earlier,” Zhou Chao said with a mischievous smile, while Li Wei looked intrigued.

The flight lasted for three hours and forty minutes, and they successfully landed at Fengtian Airport. As Zhou Chao stepped out of the airport, he spotted Wang Lan in the crowd.

“Boss!” Wang Lan quickly approached and greeted Zhou Chao. She then cast her gaze on the two people standing behind him, ultimately fixing her eyes on Li Wei.

“Alright, let’s head to the hotel first. We’ll get to know each other later.” Lin Wu hailed a taxi on the roadside.

Zhou Chao sat in the front passenger seat, while the other three squeezed into the back.

“To the Hilton Hotel!” The taxi driver didn’t say much and drove them straight to the hotel.

In less than 20 minutes, they arrived at the hotel. Lin Wu promptly scanned the code to make the payment, and the group proceeded to enter the hotel.

“Hello and welcome to the Shangri-La Hotel!” The doorman immediately took their luggage, while Zhou Chao approached the hotel front desk.

“Four rooms, please,” Zhou Chao presented his exclusive card, and upon seeing it, the front desk staff became even more respectful. They quickly arranged for four deluxe single rooms.

Zhou Chao received the room cards and handed them to the others. As he was about to leave, he said to the front desk attendant, “Summon your manager to my room.”

The service staff, now aware that the guest was their boss, hung up the phone after informing the manager.

“Hello, Manager, the boss is here.”

“The boss? Are you sure?”

“Yes, it’s the boss’s exclusive card, and he’s called for the manager to come to his room!”

“Alright, I got it.” The manager hung up the phone, and the front desk attendant finally realized how handsome their boss was.

Once Zhou Chao entered his room and placed his luggage down, he sat on the sofa and started playing with his phone. It wasn’t long before there was a knock on the door.

Zhou Chao got up to open the door, revealing a stylish and attractive woman who appeared to be in her thirties.

“Boss, hello, I’m Guan Yue, the manager of the Hilton in Fuxin.”

“Well, come on in. No need to close the door; someone will be coming later,” Zhou Chao said, turning towards the sofa, with Guan Yue following.

“I called you here to get an understanding of how the hotel is operating.”

“Boss, currently, all the hotels in Fuxin are in the profit-making phase, and the returns are quite substantial,” Guan Yue reported some related data, giving Zhou Chao a rough idea.

“Well, I called you here to have you investigate Fuxin. 1 want you to invest in a medium-sized hotel there.”

“Boss, the investment value in Fuxin isn’t very high at the moment, and it’s quite likely to lose money.” As a regional manager, Guan Yue was well aware of the development in neighboring cities.

“I know. It may not seem like a worthwhile investment now, but the company has a major project over there. I hope you can quickly provide a report and a feasible plan.”

“Alright, Boss,” Although she didn’t fully understand, Guan Yue nodded. After all, it was a task assigned by the boss.

“Okay, you can go back for now. No need to arrange anything. I’ll be going out to taste the local cuisine in Fuxin tonight. Try to complete the task within these few days.” Guan Yue nodded, then left the room. She coincidentally bumped into Wang Lan, Li Wei, and the others who had come to find Zhou Chao!

“You’re here. Let’s go. We’re going to explore the night market in Fuxin!” Zhou Chao got up and walked towards the exit, and the others followed suit.

Once outside the hotel, they hailed a cab on the roadside, planning to visit the nearest night market. To their surprise, it took less than 3 minutes to reach their destination. They couldn’t help but laugh as they looked back at the hotel, still clearly visible.

“Xiema Night Market!”

Seeing the bustling crowd at the entrance, they walked towards it, inhaling the delightful aroma of various foods in the air. Their taste buds were already tingling with excitement.

“There are so many people here!” Lin Wu exclaimed as he observed the crowded night market.

“It means the food here is delicious. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many people. If we get separated later, just head back to the hotel on your own.” Lin Wu and the others nodded in agreement.

“Boss, look at that dumpling shop. There are so many people at the entrance. Do you want to check it out?”

“If you want to go, go ahead. Let’s do this: everyone is free to do what they want. Eat and play however you like. It might be hard to decide what to eat or do when we’re all together.”

Zhou Chao’s words filled everyone with joy, and they were close to cheering “Long live the boss!”

Today, to split up and explore the night market, Zhou Chao looked around and bought some of his favorite snacks whenever he saw them. He tried various delicious street foods, each with its unique flavor.

There were multi-generational heritage snacks, five-star executive chef-grilled lamb skewers, popular ice cream, and the memorable lemon tea – “Beat the Scumbag Lemon Tea”.

Having thoroughly enjoyed his time at Xiema Night Market and with a satisfied belly, Zhou Chao scanned the area but couldn’t spot Lin Wu and the rest. He made his way back towards the hotel, intending to take a leisurely stroll to aid digestion.

By the time he returned to the hotel, it was already around 10 PM. Zhou Chao didn’t go looking for them but went back to his room to prepare for a shower. After all, the night market visit had left him smelling strongly of food.

After his shower, just as Zhou Chao was about to enter his room to sleep, he received a call from Lin Wu.

“Boss, have you returned to the hotel?”

“I was just about to sleep. Have you all returned?” Zhou Chao answered while using a towel to dry his still damp hair, holding the phone in his other hand.

“We’ve all returned. I was worried you hadn’t, so I called to check.”

“I see. Tomorrow morning, we’ll go buy the cars, and once that’s done, we’ll head straight to Fuxin. Let Li Wei and Wang Lan know, and get some rest!”

“Got it, Boss!”

Zhou Chao hung up the phone, ran his hand through his now-dry hair, and headed towards the bedroom..
