Chapter 653: Small Problem! (2)
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Zhou Chao was well aware of Lin Wu’s intentions. Fortunately, the situation wasn’t too serious and could still be resolved.
Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Lin Wu’s face lit up with a smile as he quickly said, “Boss, I’ll make the call right away!”
With that, he turned and briskly left the room.
Watching Lin Wu’s excited figure, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but smile. “I hope Lin Wu gives Li Wei a good scolding to remind him not to neglect his work just because he’s getting married.”
As for why Zhou Chao didn’t personally call Li Wei to scold him, it was a decision he had carefully considered.
He didn’t want to risk ruining Li Wei’s mood for his wedding with just one phone call.
Zhou Chao sat on the sofa, lost in thought for several minutes before picking up his phone to dial.
The phone rang for seven or eight seconds before the other party answered.
“Hello, Xiao Chao, sorry, I was arranging things for the people below. What’s up?”
The voice on the phone was indeed Wang Lao’s.
“It’s nothing too important, just a little issue with a copper mine in Zambia. I was wondering if Wang Lao could ask a friend to help deal with it!”
“Is there something Young Master Zhou can’t handle?” Wang Lao chuckled.
Zhou Chao smirked and calmly replied, “It’s not that I can’t handle it. I can’t just send someone to deal with it forcefully. Besides, it’s not a big deal!”
At the mention of using force, Wang Lao became nervous. “No, you mustn’t!
Let me handle it!”
“Wang Lao, you said it yourself, not me!”
Hearing this, Wang Lao burst into laughter.
“Well, you rascal, you’re making me do things for you but don’t want to owe any favors. Consider it done. Tell me the details, and I’ll send someone to take care of it!”
Zhou Chao briefed Wang Lao on the situation and his next steps.
“I got it. I’ll arrange for someone to handle it as soon as possible. Also, make sure your people get there promptly to prevent any further incidents.”
“Don’t worry, Wang Lao. I’ve learned my lesson. This kind of thing definitely won’t happen again.”
“Mm, the air show starts tomorrow. Make sure to perform well and secure some big orders for us.”
Hearing Wang Lao’s straightforward words, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but smile wryly. “I got it, Wang Lao. You can count on me.”
“Then I’ll be waiting for your good news!” Wang Lao said happily.
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chao casually tossed his phone onto the table and leaned back on the sofa.
At this moment, he had no desire to continue reviewing documents, so he decided to take a stroll outside and relax.
Just as he stepped out of the elevator, he ran into Abdullah, accompanied by several camel people, each exuding a military air.
“Zhou, where are you headed?”
“I’m going for a walk. And who are these?” Zhou Chao smiled and nodded towards the people behind Abdullah.
“They’re here to participate in tomorrow’s air show, and they just arrived!”
Zhou Chao glanced at them thoughtfully and nodded. “Alright, I won’t keep you then. I’m off for a stroll!”
With that, he headed towards the hotel’s exit.
“Young Master, who was that just now?” asked a middle-aged man behind Abdullah, watching Zhou Chao’s departing figure.
“He’s even more capable than me. Maybe apart from my status, he’s slightly better at flirting!” Abdullah said somewhat ruefully.
The people behind him exchanged glances, disbelief evident in their eyes.
Just as they were about to inquire further, they saw Abdullah stepping into the elevator, and they quickly followed suit.
After leaving the hotel, Zhou Chao wandered around the hotel garden.
As he passed an outdoor swimming pool, he saw Shuyi and a stunning woman posing for photos in the pool.
Shuyi, who was striking a pose, also noticed Zhou Chao and immediately blushed, feeling embarrassed.
The woman facing away from Zhou Chao noticed Shuyi’s stiffness and quickly spoke up, “Shuyi, what’s wrong? The pose just now was so charming. Let’s do it again!”
“Keke, let’s wait a moment!” Shuyi said awkwardly, her eyes revealing a hint of embarrassment as she glanced at Zhou Chao.
At this moment, the woman in the pool, Keke, also noticed Shuyi’s gaze behind her.
Keke turned around and saw Zhou Chao leaning against a tree, looking interested in the two of them.
When she saw Zhou Chao’s handsome face, Keke’s eyes seemed to light up. “Hey handsome, if you want to sneak a peek, you’ll have to pay for it!”
“Keke!” Shuyi felt like she was about to die of embarrassment.
Zhou Chao chuckled and said, “I wasn’t sneaking a peek. I was openly admiring.”
“Hey handsome, if you’re not busy, could you help us take a few pictures?” Keke raised her phone.
“Sure, no problem!”
Zhou Chao walked over to the edge of the pool and took the phone from Keke’s hand.
Seeing Shuyi still sitting on the duck-shaped float, Keke called out to her, “Shuyi, come over here, what are you still standing there for!”
