Chapter 605: Back Home!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Xiao Chao!” Both First Uncle and Second Uncle stood up hurriedly, excitement evident on their faces. Especially First Uncle, who even stopped playing cards and walked quickly towards him.

“It’s good that you’re back, it’s good that you’re back. Is this your wife? I didn’t expect you to find such a beautiful wife.”

“First Uncle, Second Uncle, this is my wife, Jiang Li.”

Jiang Li quickly called out, “First Uncle, Second Uncle!”

“Ah!” First Uncle and Second Uncle responded simultaneously, their faces beaming with smiles.

“You didn’t stay long when you came back last time for the New Year. This time, you should stay a few more days and have a good time. You’ve set an example for the young generation of the Zhou family by marrying such a beautiful wife. If my son Zhou Hao could be half as good as you, I’d be satisfied.”

At this time, a young man beside them complained, “Dad, do you have to insult me like that!”

The whole room burst into laughter for a moment.

“Xiao Chao, go upstairs with Zhou Hao and the others to have some fun. Young people have common topics.”

“Okay, Uncle!” Zhou Chao smiled and nodded.

First Uncle and Second Uncle returned to the mahjong table and resumed playing. Zhou Hao walked over at this time, “Brother Chao, it’s been years. You seem to be getting more handsome. If my dad didn’t tell me, I almost didn’t recognize you.”

In Zhou Hao’s memory, Zhou Chao’s appearance was quite ordinary. He wasn’t as handsome as now, nor was he as tall. His temperament was different too. Could it be because of the car accident back then?

“People change as they grow older. I haven’t been back for many years, and I’m not the ignorant young man I used to be.” Zhou Chao smiled lightly, making Zhou Hao feel refreshed.

After coming back to his senses, Zhou Hao quickly said, “Brother Chao, let’s go upstairs. There are fewer people upstairs.”

“Okay, let’s go.”

Third Grandpa’s house was a three-story countryside villa. When he last visited, Third Aunt mentioned that First Uncle had funded its construction, intending to bring Third Grandpa there for retirement. This happened just last year.

On the second floor, Zhou Chao found that besides three bedrooms, there were also two large terraces. One of them was specially decorated with a pavilion-like structure, and in the center was a large round stone table.

As soon as the three of them sat down, they saw two eighteen or nineteen-ycar-old girls walking towards them with fruits and tea.

“Big Brother, Big Sister-in-law, have some fruit!” One of the girls said shyly.

“Ah!” Zhou Chao nodded in agreement.

Zhou Hao quickly introduced them. After all, it had been many years since they last met, and Zhou Chao probably didn’t recognize them anymore. “Brother Chao, these are First Uncle and Third Uncle’s daughters, Zhou Qi and Zhou Fei.” Zhou Chao suddenly realized and said, “So you two were the ones who always followed me in the past. I didn’t expect you to grow up so beautiful. I almost didn’t recognize you.”

Thinking back to when Zhou Qi and Zhou Fei used to follow him around when they were young, although those memories were buried deep down, who made him inherit them so perfectly? Although these memories were buried deep down, when they surfaced, a wave of affection surged in his heart.

“Big Brother, we won’t follow you anymore. We’re all grown up now!” Zhou Qi wrinkled her nose, looking like a little adult.

“Ah, yes!” Zhou Chao teased.

This made Jiang Li and Zhou Hao beside them laugh.

Seeing that she couldn’t win over Zhou Chao, Zhou Qi turned to Jiang Li beside her, “Big Brother bullies me as soon as he comes back. Sister-in-law, can’t you control Big Brother?”

Zhou Chao became interested and wanted to tease Zhou Qi. He pretended to be serious and said, “It’s useless even if you call her sister-in-law. You should know that I’m the one in charge in this house!”

Zhou Qi tentatively glanced at Jiang Li’s expression and saw her wearing the same faint smile, confirming that Zhou Chao’s statement was mostly accurate. “Hmph, Big Brother, you’ve become naughty. You weren’t like this before. You used to be so nice to me. Ah, it turns out the words of the elderly are always right. People do change.” Zhou Qi looked somewhat aggrieved.

Seeing this, Zhou Chao burst into laughter. It seemed that the Zhou family had inherited the genes for being dramatic.

After this chat, the formalities between Zhou Chao and the others diminished. “Okay, enough joking around. Xiao Hao, are you still in university?”

‘Tve graduated from university. Now I work at the Fog City headquarters of Yida. As for Guo Qi and Guo Fei, they’re both in their second year of university, studying at Fog City University.”

“Oh, not bad. Graduating and going straight to work at Yida. It seems like you did well in school!” Zhou Chao was a bit curious because going directly to the Fog City headquarters of Yida required some capability.

Hearing this, Zhou Qi beside him said proudly, “Of course, Xiao Hao is a top student at Fog City University. He performed very well in school and was directly signed by the Yida Group.”

“Well done, well done!” Zhou Chao glanced at Zhou Hao and noticed there wasn’t too much pride in his eyes. It seemed he was a down-to-earth person. Zhou Hao also asked curiously, “Brother Chao, what are you doing now? Are you still in Modu?”

Upon hearing this question, even the somewhat shy Zhou Fei perked up her ears, looking like a curious little baby.

Zhou Chao intentionally teased them, “Well-”

Sure enough, Zhou Hao and the others stared at him eagerly. He continued with a grin, “I’m not telling you!”

“Tch!” The three of them were simultaneously teased by Zhou Chao.

Brother Chao, just tell us.” To satisfy her curiosity, Zhou Qi started acting coquettish.

“Okay, I’ll tell you. I’ve opened a company in Modu. It’s doing quite well, and now, your eldest brother here has become the boss.”

“Really? Is that true, Brother Chao? Can you make it in Modu? I’ve heard that it’s quite challenging to start a company there. Oh, by the way, I saw on Guo Yan’s social media that she had bought a house. Brother Chao, please don’t tell me that’s your house!” As he spoke, Zhou Hao suddenly remembered something and looked at Zhou Chao in disbelief.

Zhou Chao was taken aback for a moment. It suddenly occurred to him that when Guo Yan went to Modu before, she took quite a few photos and even posted them on social media. Zhou Hao and Guo Yan were quite close, and as young people, they were often brought along by Third Aunt to visit relatives. Zhou Hao probably added Guo Yan as a friend on WeChat before.

“Yes!” Zhou Chao nodded understanding^.

Zhou Qi and Zhou Fei beside him were completely confused. Unable to contain her curiosity, Zhou Qi asked, “Big Brother, Second Brother, what house are you talking about? And what’s the situation with Guo Yan?”

Zhou Hao didn’t say much either. He simply took out his phone, quickly operated it, and then handed it to Zhou Qi and Zhou Fei.

Zhou Qi received the phone with a puzzled expression, and Zhou Fei leaned in as well. Soon, the expressions on their faces changed like the swift changes in a Sichuan opera performance. From confusion to shock, it only took a moment. After seeing Guo Yan’s social media posts, their mouths hung open in disbelief as they looked at Zhou Chao.

“Big Brother, is this for real?” Zhou Qi still couldn’t believe it. freewēbnoveℓ.com

Zhou Chao chuckled and nodded. “Of course it’s true. If you don’t believe me, ask your sister-in-law!”

“It’s true!” Jiang Li smiled and confirmed.

With the exact answer, Zhou Qi was left stunned, staring blankly at Zhou Chao. She couldn’t believe that her big brother was actually a hidden boss. Just now, she had seen some location tags on Guo Yan’s social media, such as “Tang Chen One,” although she didn’t know what Tang Chen One looked like, she knew that the price of houses in Tang Chen One was in the billions.

Big Brother, you’re amazing!” Zhou Hao exclaimed excitedly.

It s just luck!” Zhou Chao said softly. Without the system, he might still be managing the small convenience store at home.

At this moment, Zhou Fei seemed to discover something amazing. Holding the phone, she exclaimed, “Hey, isn’t this the National Husband, Si Cong? Big Brother, your relationship with him seems pretty good too?”

What? Si Cong?” Zhou Hao and Zhou Qi exclaimed simultaneously, rushing to Zhou Fei’s side.

This news was even more surprising to them than knowing about Zhou Chao owning Tang Chen One. Tearing Onions was considered one of the top rich second generation in the country. They hadn’t expected their big brother to know him, let alone have such a close relationship with him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken photos with Guo Yan.

At that moment, Zhou Chao became mysterious in the eyes of the few..
