Zhou Chao shook his head lightly. “It’s okay, here, take these!”

With that, he handed the power bank and the stand to Shuyi, then walked ahead. Standing in place, Shuyi watched Zhou Chao’s figure with a trance-like expression.

After a while, she came back to her senses, touched her slightly flushed face, and muttered to herself, “What’s wrong with me? This isn’t like the carefree me. Could it be that I find Young Master Zhou too handsome and have some improper thoughts? And that scene just now was so embarrassing, just like a scene from a cheesy TV drama.”

Looking up at the already distant Zhou Chao, she quickly set up her phone stand. Originally, she wanted to catch up, but she thought better of it. After all, she was about to start live streaming, and if Zhou Chao left, it would be hard to explain.

After thinking it through, she found a place to sit and began to set up.

Meanwhile, Zhou Chao, who was walking ahead, didn’t pay attention to whether Shuyi caught up or not. He was just taking a leisurely walk to clear his mind. Besides, with his size, he wouldn’t get lost.

“My child, my child, help!” A somewhat hysterical shout came from the seaside.

Zhou Chao looked over and saw a figure about twenty to thirty meters away from the shore, floating up and down with the waves as if about to sink. On the beach, a young woman sat crying loudly.

Without hesitation, Zhou Chao hurried over, casually handing his phone to a beautiful woman in the crowd.

Before the woman could react, she saw a figure rushing into the sea. At the same time, several young men also rushed in.

However, when they saw Zhou Chao’s swimming speed, they all stopped one after another.

“Wow, he swims so fast!” The onlookers on the shore exclaimed.

While others who were also trying to help hadn’t taken a few steps, Zhou Chao was already nearing the drowning child.

When Zhou Chao reached the child, he found that the child had already swallowed a lot of water and passed out. He quickly grabbed the child’s clothes by the neck and swam back to shore.

Soon, Zhou Chao reached the shore, feeling a bit out of breath. At this moment, the crowd took the child from Zhou Chao’s hands, and someone who knew first aid immediately took over the rescue work.

“Hey handsome, this is your phone.” Just as Zhou Chao was still watching the child’s condition, a voice came from beside him.

Turning his head, he saw the woman who had taken care of his phone earlier.

“Thanks!”

Zhou Chao stood up, took the phone, and said.

“No problem, you’re amazing, handsome guy,” the woman said excitedly.

Her eyes wandered up and down Zhou Chao’s body for some reason, making Zhou Chao feel uncomfortable.

“It’s nothing, I have to go!” Unable to tolerate such a situation, Zhou Chao left quickly.

Seeing Zhou Chao jogging away, the woman stomped her feet in anger. “Could it be that I’m not pretty enough?”

She looked down at her well-proportioned figure, slender waist, and long legs, unable to understand why, after taking the initiative to strike up a conversation, Zhou Chao ran away so quickly.

At this moment, cheers suddenly came from the crowd, and the woman looked over, only to see the child waking up successfully thanks to everyone’s efforts.

At this point, people remembered the handsome young man who had gone to rescue the child in the sea. However, when they went to look for him again, he had already disappeared without a trace.

As soon as Zhou Chao returned to the hotel, he ran into Lin Wu who came to find him.

“Boss, what happened to you? You’re all wet,” Lin Wu asked nervously.

“Oh, don’t mention it. I was just taking a walk by the sea and saw a child being swept away by the waves. So, I had to go and play the hero,” Zhou Chao said as he opened the door and walked in, taking off his clothes and heading towards the bathroom.

After waiting for about seven or eight minutes, Zhou Chao emerged from the bathroom wearing a loose white bathrobe.

“Judging by your appearance, do you need something from me?”

Upon hearing the question, Lin Wu took out his phone from his pocket, fiddled with it, and handed it to Zhou Chao.

“Boss, this morning the hotel reported to me that someone obtained Abdullah’s residence information in the lobby last night. I investigated it, and it turned out to be one of Liusu’s bodyguards. It seems he has been following us from the bar to the hotel.”

Zhou Chao remained silent, calmly watching the entire situation.

He tapped his fingers on the armrest of the sofa a few times before saying, “It seems that Liu Xu cares quite a bit about Abdullah. If Abdullah finds out he’s being investigated, what do you think he’ll think?”

Lin Wu hesitated for a moment before saying, “Regardless of whether the intentions are good or bad, such investigations will surely offend him.”

Zhou Chao glanced at Lin Wu. “Since you know all this, why are you still standing here?”

“Hehe, Boss, I know what to do now,” Lin Wu said with a smirk, preparing to go complain to Abdullah.

“Wait a minute, you’re being too hasty. Abdullah is quite smart. It’s the inadvertent mention that’s the most deadly. Also, have someone investigate what business Liu Xu’s family is in.”

“Boss, don’t worry, I’ve got this under control!” Lin Wu said somewhat proudly.

Zhou Chao shook his head. How did Lin Wu, who used to be so upright, become such a scheming person now? Well, there must be nothing to do with him in this matter. Yes, it’s all Lin Wu’s own transformation.

“Alright, Boss, I’ll go take care of it.”

“Yeah, go ahead. Also, have the hotel reward the front desk staff who was on duty last night. You can decide how to handle it specifically.”

“Understood!” Lin Wu said before picking up the items on the table and leaving.

Zhou Chao also got up and walked to the balcony, sitting down on a chair.

“You’re not trying to steal someone’s man, are you? Just see whose hoe is better!”
