“Oh, what happened? Share the story!” Wang Lao’s curiosity was instantly sparked, and even Wen Bin, who was nearby, became attentive.

Seeing the curious expressions on Wang Lao and Wen Bin’s faces, Lin Wu hesitated for a moment, then decided to briefly explain the situation.

“Well, well, it seems like you’ve chosen the right path, Xiao Lin!” Wang Lao expressed his satisfaction. In his heart, Zhou Chao had already become a responsible and capable person.

Just as everyone was chatting happily, Lin Wu’s phone rang.

Glancing at the caller ID, Wang Lao chuckled and remarked, “Has Xiao Zhou installed a bug? He calls right when we start talking about him.”

This remark elicited laughter from everyone.

Lin Wu suppressed his smile and immediately answered the phone. “Hello, Boss, have you arrived home?”

As soon as the call connected, Zhou Chao got straight to the point. “Yes, I’m already home. I called to talk about the little tiger. I was in a hurry earlier and forgot about it. After we’re done with the matters in Russia, remember to bring the little tiger back when you and Wang Lao return.”

Glancing at Wang Lao, who was leisurely basking in the sun beside him, Lin Wu nodded. “Understood, Boss. I’ll take good care of it.”

“Alright, nothing else. I’ll hang up now!” Zhou Chao said before ending the call.

“What did your boss say?” Wang Lao raised his head and asked.

“The boss wants us to bring the little guy back when we return to China. It seems we’ll be troubling you, Wang Lao!” Lin Wu replied, rubbing the little tiger’s head a few times as he spoke.

“That’s it? I thought it was something big. No problem, just a small matter!” Wang Lao looked at the little tiger with a hint of affection in his eyes. After all, it was so adorable.

The little tiger, still nursing, seemed to sense something. It lifted its head to glance at Wang Lao and Lin Wu, let out a couple of soft cries, then lowered its head again to continue nursing.

This scene brought joy to both men.

Jiang Li and Zhou Chao had been chatting in the courtyard for about half an hour. Zhou Chao kept yawning, so he finally told Jiang Li to go upstairs and rest.

“Sigh, being lazy at home is still the best!” Zhou Chao sighed, feeling much more relaxed at home with his family around.

Not even ten minutes into his relaxation, the phone on the table rang. Glancing at it, Zhou Chao saw an unknown number on the caller ID. After a moment’s thought, he knew who it was. He quickly answered the call.

“Hello, Grandpa!”

“Hey, how did you know it was me? You rascal, something’s not right with you!” Xiao Lao’s hearty voice came through the phone.

“There are only a few people who can call me, and the caller ID is unknown. Besides you, only Grandpa is left. As for the others, they definitely wouldn’t call me!”

“Hahaha, you sly kid. I heard you’re back. Come over to my place this afternoon if you’re free!”

After a brief moment of contemplation, Zhou Chao immediately replied, “Sure thing, Grandpa. I’ll tidy up and come over right away!”

“Where’s that girl, Jiang Li?”

“She went to bed. You know she loves to sleep at this time!”

“Alright, that’s fine then!” With that, Grandpa Xiao hung up the phone.

Zhou Chao quickly got up and walked towards the house, coincidentally meeting the housekeeper, Aunt Kuang, tidying up the living room.

“Aunt Kuang, I’m going out for a while. I’m not sure when I’ll be back. If Jiang

Li asks, just tell her I went to Grandpa’s place!”

“Understood, Boss!”

Zhou Chao nodded and grabbed his car keys, then took the elevator down to the garage..
