Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Zhou Chao’s actions nearly scared Ling Chen to death. He quickly walked up to

Zhou Chao and asked, “Boss, are you alright?”

Hearing Ling Chen’s voice, Zhou Chao finally relaxed.

He rubbed his temples and, feeling the dizziness subside a bit, asked, “What arc you doing here? Weren’t you supposed to go back with Xiao Yang?”

Upon hearing this, Ling Chen was stunned. Looking at Zhou Chao, who looked a bit disheveled, he asked with some confusion, “Boss, have you been busy since I left?”

“Yeah, is there a problem?” Zhou Chao turned his head slightly, looking at Ling Chen somewhat uneasily.

Ling Chen, seeing Zhou Chao’s eyes already red from fatigue, quickly said, “Boss, it’s already the evening of the second day!”

“The evening of the second day? How is that possible?”

Zhou Chao quickly grabbed his phone nearby, only to find it had run out of battery and shut down.

His stomach grumbled appropriately, and a wave of exhaustion washed over him, causing him to lean back in his chair.

At this point, Zhou Chao realized that he had indeed pulled an all-nighter.

“How could time pass so quickly? I feel like I’ve only been busy for a short while, and yet a whole day and night have passed!” Zhou Chao couldn’t believe he had been busy for so long.

“Boss, why don’t you go rest in the bedroom first? I’ll make you something to eat!”

Ling Chen quickly suggested, noticing that Zhou Chao hadn’t eaten.

“Okay, thank you. I’ll go take a shower first!”

Zhou Chao nodded, and without further inquiry into what Zhou Chao had been busy with, Ling Chen turned and walked out of the study.

Meanwhile, Zhou Chao looked at the package on his computer with a satisfied smile.

Without bothering to put the computer back into the system repository, he got up and headed to the bathroom. Once the water was running, he lay down in the bathtub, feeling the water slowly enveloping his body at just the right temperature. Unconsciously, Zhou Chao drifted off to sleep.

He didn’t know how long had passed when he vaguely heard someone calling him.

Zhou Chao opened his weary eyes and saw Ling Chen standing by the bathtub, looking at him with interest.

In an instant, Zhou Chao became much more alert. He quickly grabbed a towel to cover his modesty. “Why did you come in?”

“Ahem, I didn’t expect you to have such a good figure. I called you outside for a while, but you didn’t respond, so I came in!” Ling Chen looked innocent, but there was a hint of mischief in his eyes.

“Alright, alright, you can go out first. I’ll be down soon!” Zhou Chao didn’t dwell on the matter. Since he had been seen naked, there was nothing more to say.

Ling Chen nodded and quickly left. Zhou Chao got out of the bathtub, dried himself off, and casually put on a bathrobe before heading downstairs.

Surprisingly, Ling Chen’s cooking skills were quite good. As soon as Zhou Chao reached the dining room, he smelled a delicious aroma.

He saw a very ordinary home-cooked meal laid out before him.

“Wow, I didn’t expect you to be such a good cook!” Watching Ling Chen come out of the kitchen with a bowl and chopsticks, Zhou Chao praised.

“Life forced me to. I honed these skills during that time.” Ling Chen said with a hint of sadness in his eyes.

After his divorce, he lived in a simple rental house with his son, playing the roles of both father and mother. Fortunately, he survived that dark period and met Zhou Chao.

Zhou Chao picked up his chopsticks and started eating. “By the way, since you’re here, where’s Xiaoyang?”

“I had the bodyguard pick him up. He should be at home now.”

Zhou Chao nodded slightly and didn’t say much more, as his stomach was really hungry.

Fortunately, Zhou Chao wasn’t picky about food. He quite liked the dishes Ling Chen had made, such as tomato scrambled eggs, shredded pork with green peppers, and vegetable soup, which were all appetizing.

In just a few minutes, Zhou Chao had already polished off two bowls of rice, making Ling Chen wonder just how delicious his cooking really was.

“Boss, take your time eating. If it’s not enough, I can make more!”

Ling Chen served himself half a bowl of vegetable soup, gulped it down in a few mouthfuls, then slammed the bowl and chopsticks on the table, exclaiming loudly, “So refreshing! I feel so energetic now!”

Seeing that there wasn’t much food left on the table, Ling Chen sighed and poured the remaining dishes into his own bowl, silently eating.

Seeing this, Zhou Chao felt a bit embarrassed. After all, he had eaten most of the food by himself.

“After you finish eating, I’ll give you a surprise!”

“A surprise? Boss, just make sure it’s not as scary as today’s surprise!” Ling Chen complained, looking at Zhou Chao.

Today had given him quite a fright, and he still felt nervous just thinking about it.

Zhou Chao chuckled mysteriously. “Don’t worry, it’ll definitely be a pleasant surprise, the kind that will leave you in awe!”

Hearing this, Ling Chen’s eating speed unconsciously increased.

After a simple cleanup, the two of them quickly made their way to the study. Seeing Zhou Chao’s slightly excited expression, Ling Chen couldn’t help but wonder what could make the boss so thrilled.

Standing beside Zhou Chao, quietly watching him turn on the computer, Ling Chen saw Zhou Chao open a file package on the desktop, and a progress bar appeared on the screen.

After waiting for about two minutes, the progress bar reached the end, and the screen flashed a few times, revealing a cute cartoon character on the desktop. “Hey, Brother Chao!” The computer speakers automatically sounded.

Ling Chen was startled and took a step back..
