Chapter 358: Arrange the Itinerary

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Zhou Chao took the task from Jiang Li's hand and got busy in the kitchen, while Jiang Li excitedly ran upstairs to pack her luggage.

When Zhou Chao finished cooking, Jiang Li bounced down from upstairs.

“Just in time, we can have our meal now!”

“Hehe, I've packed everything we need. Wasn't that quick?” Zhou Chao glanced at the time without changing his expression; it had been almost an hour.

“Hmm, impressive! You deserve a reward, Ah Li. We'll have extra meat tonight!” After saying that, he turned and walked into the kitchen.

Jiang Li rolled her eyes at his words.

She followed Zhou Chao into the kitchen and helped with setting the table and other preparations.

“Brother Chao, are we going just the two of us?” Jiang Li asked curiously as she put down her bowl halfway through the meal.

“No, there are a few others—Big Bro, Si Cong, and the rest. We're not sure if

Shen Lan will come; after all, they just returned from the Maldives.”

“Shen Lan will definitely come!” Zhou Chao, unaware of Jiang Li's thoughts, decided to message Shen Lan later.

So, when are we leaving? Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?” Jiang Li's face showed her eagerness.

“Let's go the day after tomorrow. We only finalized the plan today. Tomorrow, we'll pack and make arrangements, and then early the next day, we'll set off.”

“Sounds good!”

Just as they finished their conversation, Zhou Chao's phone, placed on the coffee table, started ringing. He was about to get up to answer it when Jiang Li hurriedly grabbed it.

“Brother Chao, it's your sister calling!”

“Guo Yan?”

Jiang Li nodded.

Zhou Chao took the phone from Jiang Li's hand and answered it immediately.

“Hello, Guo Yan!

H

“Brother, are you busy? Why did you answer the phone so late?”

“We're having dinner right now. Is something the matter?”

“Hehe, Brother, I've finished my college entrance exams. I'll come to Modu to visit Sister-in-law tomorrow!”

“Your college entrance exam is over? How did you do?”

“The results haven't been released yet.”

“Do you have a passport? Your sister-in-law and I are planning to go to the Hawaiian Islands the day after tomorrow to take pre-wedding photos and have some fun. If you have a passport, you can join us.” Zhou Chao thought for a moment. Having one more person wouldn't be a big deal, especially since it was his own sister.

“Really? Brother, 1 have a passport. I went to Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand with our family before! I'll come to Modu early tomorrow morning!”

“Okay, great! We're in the middle of dinner now.”

“Sure, Brother. Bye!”

“Okay.” After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chao looked at Jiang Li, who was smiling at him.

“What's up? Is there something on my face?”

“I just think you look handsome when you're serious!”

“Am I not handsome usually?”

“You're so vain!”

After they finished their meal, they cleaned up together and happily went to sleep, knowing that they had a lot to do the next day.

The next morning, Jiang Li still went to the company early, even though Zhou Chao had suggested she take a break. Guo Yan had arrived, and the two could have a good chat together.

In the end, Jiang Li declined, saying she had a meeting to attend, so she left early in the morning.

“Ding!” Zhou Chao, who was still in bed, checked his messages and saw that it was the flight information sent by Guo Yan. He immediately forwarded it to Lin Wu.

“Lin Wu, wait at the airport for my sister; she's coming to Modu. Also, give Dole a call and let him know that we're flying to Lanai Island in Hawaii at 10 AM tomorrow. Make sure he has all the preparations done, and nothing goes wrong!” Zhou Chao sent Lin Wu a voice message with these instructions.

He quickly received a reply from Lin Wu with a simple “Got it.”

Then, he sent a message to the Modu Second Generation group.

“Meet at Hongqiao Airport at 9 AM tomorrow. Bring your luggage and passports. I'll take care of the rest!”

After sending the message, Zhou Chao tossed his phone aside because he knew that these people were still asleep, unlike him, who woke up so early.

He changed into workout clothes, took the elevator to the gym, and prepared for a good workout. After all, it was only 8 AM, and some physical activity would help him stay alert.

After about an hour and a half of intense exercise, his clothes were soaked with sweat.

He took off his sweaty clothes and entered the gym's shower room. After a quick rinse, he wrapped a towel around himself and walked out.

“Feels great. It looks like I need to gradually develop the habit of morning exercise,” Zhou Chao thought as he lay on the sofa and sipped half a glass of freshly squeezed fruit juice. He felt refreshed and revitalized.

“Oh, my phone!” He had just thought about playing with his phone while lying down when he realized that his phone was nowhere to be found.

He couldn't remember where he had put his phone for a moment, so he retraced his morning activities. Finally, he discovered that his phone was still on his bed.

“What's wrong with me? I can't be this forgetful,” he mumbled to himself as he noticed several messages on his phone.

They were all brief two-word responses: “Got it.”

It then occurred to Zhou Chao that he hadn't informed Zhang Wenxuan yet. Since he didn't have Zhang's phone number, he had no choice but to change into a fresh set of clothes and head to the Zhang family's residence.

After ringing the doorbell, the door opened after a short while.

The butler, All Fu, greeted him with a warm smile.

“Young Master Zhou, why have you come? Please come in, please come in!”

“I won't come in. Is your young master at home?”

“The young master and the master went to the company. Let me call them.”

Zhou Chao quickly waved to stop All Fu's actions.

ii

No need, Steward Fu. When your young master returns, please tell him that we're leaving for the Hawaiian Islands tomorrow. Ask him to prepare his passport, and I'll handle the rest.”

“Alright, Young Master Zhou, thank you for personally coming by.”

“No problem, it's just a short walk away. Well, I'll head back now.”

“Young Master Zhou, take care!” As Zhou Chao walked away, Ah Fu watched his departing figure. Once Zhou Chao had disappeared from view, Ah Fu quickly turned and went inside the house, planning to call the master to inform him.

“Afu, is there something wrong?” Zhang Liang, who had just arrived in his office, wondered why Afu had called.

“Master, Young Master Zhou paid a visit just now.”

“Oh, what did he say?”

“Young Master Zhou mentioned that they're planning to go on a trip tomorrow and asked Young Master to bring his passport. He said he would handle the rest.”

“Alright, I got it,” Zhang Liang replied and hung up the phone. He then turned to Zhang Wenxuan, who was standing nearby.

“All Fu called and said that Young Master Zhou came by earlier. He mentioned that you're going on a trip tomorrow, so pack your passport and get ready in the evening. Don't embarrass yourself, and you know what to do next!”

“I understand, don't worry,” Zhang Wenxuan replied, his expression tightening. He naturally understood his father's intentions.

On the other hand, when Zhou Chao returned home, he called Miles to arrange

611 the omerlianu, wiien z^nuu limu leLuuieu iiuuit, nt* cdiieu iviiitb lu dJLidiigt for the reception.

“Oh, dear boss, what can I do for you?”

“Miles, if you keep up this slick talk, I'll consider replacing you!”

“No, boss, I'm not being slick at all!”

“Tomorrow, I'll be flying to Lanai Island. There will be about eight of us traveling together. I need you to arrange the reception.”

“Boss, when is your flight? I'll be there to pick you up!”

“It's a private plane, a direct flight to Lanai Island. Just make sure you handle the reception. Also, find the best wedding photography studio in the world. I'm going to take pre-wedding photos with my fiancee. This is a top priority, so make sure it's well arranged!”

“Of course, boss!” Miles quickly understood that his boss was taking a private jet and heading to this island. He realized that his boss was extravagant. However, thinking about the island, everything made sense.

“My boss is getting married?” Miles thought. He realized that he needed to find the best wedding photography studio; otherwise, if the photos turned out poorly, his boss's fiancee might persuade him to leave!

After handling these matters, Zhou Chao lay bored on the sofa. He checked the time and saw that it was not even 10 o'clock yet. Lin Wu should be waiting at the airport by now.

“It's a hassle. I'll just have lunch at home later. I'll order a table of dishes from a hotel nearby. It's hard to find a place to eat out now!” Zhou Chao thought aloud, then proceeded to search for nearby hotels.

After searching around, they eventually found the same restaurant they had ordered from last time. They went ahead and reserved a top-tier table, arranging for the food to be delivered to their home.

Upon seeing the address Zhou Chao had provided, the restaurant immediately recognized it as the same address they served previously and gladly agreed. After all, it's common for hotels to be very busy during lunchtime.

Having completed all these tasks, Zhou Chao finally relaxed.

Time passed quickly, and it was almost noon. Zhou Chao, who had been engrossed in messaging, was starting to feel a bit weary. Just as he was about to go to the fridge to grab a snack, the doorbell rang.

Opening the door, he found two hotel staff members and a property management representative standing there.

h

Just bring it inside and place it on the dining table.”

The property management representative quickly assisted in bringing the ordered meal inside, and the hotel staff left a business card, mentioning that they could be contacted directly for future orders.

“Hmm, they're treating me like a VIP customer!”

But upon reflection, it made sense. After all, residents of Huazhou Juntian were likely to seek favors.

Once Zhou Chao had seen them off and returned to his home, he noticed the elevator approaching from below, signaling the arrival of Lin Wu and Guo Yan.

As expected, the elevator doors opened, revealing a pure-looking girl dressed in a school uniform with her hair tied up in a bun.

“Brother, I've missed you so much,” Guo Yan greeted warmly as soon as she stepped out of the elevator. This time, she didn't throw herself at him like the first time they met. She seemed a bit more mature now.

“Well, let's have dinner first. The ordered meal has just arrived!” Zhou Chao smiled and ruffled Guo Yan's hair.

“Brother, don't ruffle my hair. I won't grow taller that way!” Guo Yan pouted and said indignantly.

“Haha, alright, no more hair ruffling, let's eat!” Zhou Chao chuckled and headed towards the dining room. Guo Yan quickly followed suit, while Lin Wu left their luggage in the living room before joining them in the dining room.

“Brother, your house is so luxurious! It feels even more lavish than The Palms Residence we lived in before. The only thing is, the rooms here don't look as nice as The Palms Residence!”

“I'm not trying to make it look nice. The Palms Residence is too noisy; this place is much quieter. Am I someone who pursues luxury for the sake of appearance?”

“Lin Wu, Brother, look! There are cows flying in the sky!”

Jiang Li's words momentarily stunned both Zhou Chao and Lin Wu, but soon they burst into laughter..
