Zhou Chao suddenly showed up in front of both of them, seemingly from nowhere, and swiftly intercepted Shen Fei’s attempt to reach for Jiang Li’s hand.
“Who the heck are you? Mind your own business!” Shen Fei, angered by his hand being held, shouted at Zhou Chao.
At that moment, Jiang Li recognized that the man before her was none other than her husband, Zhou Chao.
“Hubby, you’re back!” Jiang Li’s initially cold expression transformed into a beaming smile.
As Jiang Li rushed towards him, Zhou Chao quickly pushed Shen Fei’s hand away, and perhaps with too much force, Shen Fei stumbled back and fell to the ground.
Looking at Jiang Li hanging onto him, Zhou Chao’s face revealed an affectionate gaze.
“Come down quickly; there are people watching!” At some point, a small crowd had gathered around them. Jiang Li initially wanted to give Zhou Chao a kiss but seeing the onlookers, she quickly jumped down from him.
As for Shen Fei, who had fallen earlier, he had somehow managed to get back on his feet. He watched the affectionate scene between the two of them, and his expression changed from one moment of surprise to one of hostility.
Zhou Chao handed the bouquet of roses to Jiang Li, who held them with a smile on her face, exuding a charming, girlish charm.
At first, Shen Fei was extremely angry, but when he witnessed this situation, his anger surged uncontrollably. He immediately headed straight for Zhou Chao!
As a result, just as Shen Fei rushed up to Zhou Chao, he was kicked by Zhou Chao and rolled on the ground for several rounds. The onlookers couldn’t help but burst into laughter!
Shen Fei covered his stomach, listened to the laughter around him, and suddenly burst into tears, leaving both the onlookers and Zhou Chao stunned!
Soon, the commotion in the underground garage attracted the security personnel of Global Finance. A team of six people quickly arrived at the scene.
The captain of the team, after passing through the crowd, saw Zhou Chao standing in the center!
After carefully looking at Zhou Chao for a few moments, as if verifying something, the pupils of the team leader involuntarily contracted, and he quickly saluted Zhou Chao with a standard salute!
“Boss, good afternoon!” The words of the security team leader instantly quieted down the previously noisy underground garage. Even Shen Fei, who was lying on the ground in distress, stopped crying!
“Um, do you know me?” Zhou Chao looked at the team leader in front of him with a smile on his face.
“Boss, I saw you once before when you came to inspect the work in the office area!” The words of the team leader reminded Zhou Chao of what had happened before, and he nodded!
Then he looked at Shen Fei, who was sitting on the ground, and walked up to him with a cold face, saying, “Didn’t you hear my wife say she’s already married? Why are you still clinging on!”
“I… I…” Shen Fei was so frightened by Zhou Chao’s icy gaze that he didn’t know what to say for a moment!
Zhou Chao squatted down, patted Shen Fei’s shoulder, and said, “1 don’t want to see this scene again in the future. Behave yourself from now on!”
Shen Fei nodded vigorously, almost like a bobblehead toy. Observing Shen Fei’s response, Zhou Chao decided not to press the issue any further. He got to his feet, flashed a smile at the spectators nearby, and uttered, “Alright, folks! Time to go back and grab some dinner!”
The onlookers immediately scattered, and even Shen Fei was assisted by a man who might be his friend and left!
“You did a good job today! You came in just in time, and in the future, handle things as quickly as you did today!”
“Yes, boss!” Zhou Chao looked at the team leader and the five people behind him, nodding in satisfaction.
“Let’s go, let’s go back too!”
“Hmm-” Zhou Chao brought Jiang Li up to the Koenigsegg, and the roar of the engine once again drew the attention of those who had just been about to leave.
Everyone saw a black luxury sports car drive past them, and even Shen Fei saw Zhou Chao and Jiang Li inside through the car window.
Zhou Chao drove out of the Global Center, and he looked at Jiang Li beside him and said, “Darling, let’s go eat at a three-star Michelin restaurant!”
“Hmph, you’re teasing me again. You don’t know that just a couple of days after you left, I was pestered by that Shen Fei!” Jiang Li pouted, hands on hips, looking very annoyed.
Then Jiang Li began to share some of the strange things she had encountered. It all started after Zhou Chao left. In the first two days, she had been driving the Lamborghini to work, but later she felt it was too flashy, so she started driving the Buick instead. Coincidentally, on that day, she parked her car right next to Shen Fei’s BMW X6.
“Oh, it seems that this Shen Fei is doing quite well!”
“He said he’s a department manager at an import-export company!”
After answering Zhou Chao’s question, Jiang Li explained the reason behind the situation.
“When it was time to leave work, I was getting ready to drive home, but I happened to run into him. He’s been waiting for me at the elevator every day, luckily, he hasn’t found out where 1 work! It’s so annoying!”
“Hahaha, that’s because my wife is too beautiful! But next time, you shouldn’t drive the Buick. If you don’t like the cars in the garage, well go together to buy one that you like!”
“Really? Thank you, dear! Mua!” Jiang Li happily leaned over and gave Zhou Chao a kiss.
“Hey, hey! I’m driving, no kissing allowed next time!” Although he said no kissing was allowed, his face was filled with a happy smile.
“Hubby, let’s go home and have dinner. Let’s not eat out today!”
“Sure, I’ll listen to you!” Zhou Chao found a place to make a U-turn and headed towards The Palms Residence.
Once they got back home, the two of them headed straight to the kitchen. Zhou Chao took care of chopping the vegetables, while Jiang Li handled the stir-frying. The kitchen was filled with laughter and joy!
The two of them were busy until around 8 o’clock when they finally prepared a sumptuous dinner!
Jiang Li turned off the lights and placed a few electric candle-shaped candles on the dining table. Zhou Chao found this candlelit dinner to be quite romantic.
For this occasion, Zhou Chao even opened a bottle of top-notch red wine.
“Cheers!” The two red wine glasses clinked together under the glow of the candles.
They continued to dine until 9 o’clock, concluding their first candlelit dinner together.
Afterward, they cleaned up the table together. Zhou Chao watched as Jiang Li tidied up the kitchen, then he approached her from behind, hugged her, and gently kissed her earlobe, making Jiang Li melt in his arms.
“Hubby, let’s do it after I finish this. Is that okay?” Jiang Li blushed and looked at Zhou Chao.
“Sure, we’ll wash together!” Zhou Chao released Jiang Li, instantly transformed into a cleaning machine, and in no time, he had everything cleaned and placed in the disinfection cabinet.
“Let’s go, let’s head upstairs for a shower!”
“Pfft!” Jiang Li rolled her eyes at Zhou Chao’s comment but still allowed him to lead her upstairs.
Before long, the sound of running water could be heard from the upstairs bathroom. Soon, there emerged a melodious and enticing sound from the bathroom, and even the moon shyly hid behind the clouds..
