“Boss, are you planning to bring Lao Wang from Yida Group into this?”

Zhou Chao paused for a moment, surprised that Ling Chen had guessed his intention. However, he quickly realized that their close relationship with Si Cong, coupled with their collaboration on numerous projects, made Ling Chen’s guess reasonable.

“Yeah, that’s right, it’s Yida. Currently, the domestic real estate industry is stable, and there won’t be significant fluctuations in the property market. It just so happens that Lao Wang is quite knowledgeable in this area. With such a great opportunity to venture abroad, I imagine he’ll be even more excited than us!”

Zhou Chao’s lips curled into a mischievous grin as he finished speaking.

“Um… Boss, isn’t Mr. Wang somewhat on our side? Isn’t it not nice to scheme against him like this?” Ling Chen observed Zhou Chao’s expression and immediately understood that this was a blatant tactic. Even if Mr. Wang found out, he would eagerly jump on board.

Perhaps Lao Wang would have even been willing to dig into his own pocket to cover the upfront expenses of the project. After all, some of these projects were quite eye-catching. As long as they were built according to regulations and nothing unexpected happened, they were bound to make a splash worldwide. This was akin to getting free global advertising.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chao became displeased. “What do you mean by scheming? I’m just helping Yida gain recognition, right?”

“Ah, yes, Boss is right!” Ling Chen quickly agreed, though inwardly he felt sorry for Lao Wang for the next ten seconds.

This was akin to being sold out and still being asked to pay!

“Let’s settle this matter then. Contact Lao Wang as soon as possible, and let’s move forward with the remaining projects quickly!” Zhou Chao delegated the task to Ling Chen and resumed his role as a hands-off boss.

“Boss, why don’t you personally call Mr. Wang? If I call, he might try to negotiate with me!” Ling Chen suggested, noticing Zhou Chao’s contemplation.

After a moment of thought, Zhou Chao slowly nodded. “Alright, I’ll give Lao Wang a call first, then I’ll have him contact you. Will that work?”

He understood Ling Chen’s perspective. If Ling Chen were to call Mr. Wang, their similar status might lead to negotiations. However, if Zhou Chao personally reached out, Lao Wang wouldn’t bother discussing such matters with him, given their distinct positions.

After discussing a few more company matters, they ended the call.

Checking the time, Zhou Chao realized it was already past 9 p.m. Instead of immediately calling Lao Wang, he dialed Si Cong’s number.

“I hope I’m not disturbing Si Cong’s quest for happiness!” Although he said this aloud, Zhou Chao dialed the number anyway.

After ringing seven or eight times, just as Zhou Chao was about to hang up, Si Cong answered.

“Uh, Young Master Zhou, is there something you need?”

The tone on the other end of the line made Zhou Chao realize that this wasn’t the best time for the call.

“Give your dad a call and tell him I need to speak with him!” Without waiting for Si Cong’s response, Zhou Chao promptly ended the call. He didn’t want to hear another second of that somewhat breathless voice.

Meanwhile, Si Cong was left puzzled. Why didn’t Young Master Zhou just call himself? Now he had to do it. How frustrating!

Patting Keke’s fair skin to signal her to come down, Si Cong reluctantly dialed his father’s number.
