Even Abdullah and Ilya, who had tasted various delicacies from around the world, were now in awe of Zhou Chao’s culinary skills.

Seeing the two devouring their food eagerly, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but shake his head. Fortunately, there were no outsiders present. If others were to see these two big shots eating like this, it would surely make headlines in various countries.

In Zhou Chao’s mind, a headline emerged, “Shocking: Two world-renowned tycoons abandon their image for Chinese cuisine, wolfing down their food—Is this a moral decline or a distortion of human nature?”

Thinking about this, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but chuckle to himself. His laughter interrupted the two who were focused on eating.

“What are you laughing about, Zhou? Hurry up and cat, or we’ll finish everything,” Abdullah looked at Zhou Chao with some confusion, wondering why he was laughing like that. Could it be that he was thinking about beautiful women?

“Sorry, I just remembered something. Let’s eat, let’s eat.” Zhou Chao picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

For a moment, the three of them competed for food. The dishes on the table disappeared at a visible speed. Soon, the three of them looked satisfied, leaning back in their chairs and patting their slightly bulging stomachs.

“Zhou, your culinary skills are amazing. Even the chefs in my family can’t compare to you. It’s like night and day,” Abdullah leaned back in his chair with a happy expression, feeling somewhat sentimental. After all, the chefs in his family were world-famous chefs, but compared to Zhou Chao’s culinary skills, they were completely different.

“Yeah, Zhou, how did you develop such amazing culinary skills?” Even Ilya couldn’t help but marvel at Zhou Chao’s culinary prowess. For people like them, shouldn’t they be learning various knowledge in finance, psychology, and strategy? Why would they learn cooking?

At this point, Abdullah and Ilya glanced at each other, their eyes full of doubt, especially Abdullah. He knew that Zhou Chao was also a world-class expert in gambling. After all, he had seen how Zhou Chao packed money in sacks before.

“Come on, I’m curious to see if there’s anything you can’t do!”

Zhou Chao smiled faintly and said, “There are too many things I can’t do, like giving birth.”

Upon hearing this, Abdullah and Ilya burst into laughter. After all, it was always enjoyable to be friends with someone humorous.

“Now that we’re full, how about we take a walk and digest our food?”

“Okay, let’s get some exercise. I ate too much today.”

Then the three of them got up and walked outside. As they stepped out of the villa gate, they saw several tables set up on the open space. Many bodyguards were enjoying their meal.

Especially Lev and Agfu, each holding a bottle of vodka, drinking and recounting their recent experiences.

Seeing Zhou Chao and the others walking out of the villa, all the bodyguards put down their utensils and stood up.

Seeing this, Zhou Chao quickly waved his hand and said, “You all sit down and continue eating. We’re just going for a walk and digest our food.”

Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Lev, Lin Wu, and the other bodyguards sat down, but Abdullah and Ilya’s bodyguards remained standing without any action.

Seeing this, Zhou Chao glanced at the two beside him, indicating that one of them should speak up. They couldn’t just stand there all the time.

“You all sit down and continue eating. Don’t mind us,” it was Ilya who finally spoke up.

Agfu and the others didn’t hesitate and quickly sat down.

The three of them walked across the open space and came to the shore of Lake Baikal. Although the weather was sunny today, the wind blowing on them still made them feel a bit chilly, perhaps due to the harsh Siberian winter approaching.

“Whew, if we come here next month, the weather won’t be as nice,” Ilya said with some emotion. After all, starting from next month, Siberia’s winter would officially begin, and it would snow every day, becoming the norm.

Zhou Chao asked curiously, “Will Lake Baikal freeze over?”

“It will, and the ice can be quite thick. In some places, you can even drive on it.”

The three of them walked slowly along the lakeshore. Abdullah suddenly pointed to the distance and said, “Look, there’s another yacht over there. If my yacht were here, we could go fishing this afternoon.”

Zhou Chao and Ilya followed Abdullah’s finger and indeed saw a medium-sized yacht sailing on Lake Baikal in the distance.

“That yacht should be one of the sightseeing yachts in the town. After all, many tourists come here specifically for Lake Baikal,” Zhou Chao said. When he had previously visited the town, he had seen many of these types of small and medium-sized yachts by the lake.

“How about we get one too and go play on Lake Baikal this afternoon?” Ilya suddenly suggested.

Zhou Chao and Abdullah glanced at each other and nodded in agreement.

“Let’s have a competition this afternoon to see who catches the most fish. The one who catches the least will treat us to some fun,” Abdullah said with a mischievous grin.

Zhou Chao understood what he meant by “fun.” It was nothing more than inviting a bunch of beautiful women to join in the fun.

“I don’t mind. Anyway, you two definitely won’t out-fish me,” Zhou Chao shrugged nonchalantly.

Little did he know that the next response to Zhou Chao was two fingers held up.

“Tsk, tsk, who will come out on top remains to be seen..”
