As a Magnate, I Started Checking in at a Convenience Store

“Knock, knock, knock, boss!” Xiao Wu’s voice came from outside the door.

“I’ll change my clothes and come down.” Immediately, Zhou Chao removed his bathrobe, revealing his well-built physique that would make others jealous.

In the late days of January, Jingdu’s weather had begun to show signs of milder temperatures. Zhou Chao had adjusted his attire accordingly, opting for a high-neck sweater beneath a stylish coat and completing the ensemble with custom-made athletic leather shoes. This change added a touch of elegance to his overall appearance. He spent a moment in front of the mirror, appreciating his own handsome features before making his way downstairs.

“Boss, your flight has been booked. It’s at 1:00 PM. I brought some breakfast for you!” Xiao Wu said as Zhou Chao opened the bag and started eating.

“Sure, you’ve worked hard. When I’m away, take good care of the Shoufu,” Zhou Chao replied while enjoying his breakfast.

“Don’t worry, boss! When you return, you’ll find Shoufu nice and plump!”

“Meow!” Shoufu seemed to understand that they were talking about him and meowed in agreement.

“Nice and plump? You can see that he has gotten so lazy that he hardly moves now. Make sure to take him for a walk every day. If I come back and he’s still this chubby, I’ll have to punish you!” Xiao Wu knew that Zhou Chao was just speaking in jest and didn’t actually intend to punish him!

“Don’t worry, boss! When you come back, you’ll definitely see a robust big orange cat!” Seeing Xiao Wu’s earnest expression, Zhou Chao nodded and quickly finished his breakfast.

Zhou Chao checked the time; it was already 11:00 AM. After a quick shower and some light packing, he grabbed his phone and watch and headed downstairs.

“Shoufu, if I come back and you’re still this chubby, 1’11 reduce your food ration!” Zhou Chao playfully petted him a few times before getting up.

“Let’s go to the airport!” Xiao Wu quickly grabbed his keys and followed Zhou Chao out.

“Xiao Wu, how’s everything going with the theater?” Zhou Chao asked about the company’s situation while sitting in the passenger seat.

“Boss, Sister Lan is really amazing. She manages several theaters very efficiently and has taught me a lot. I’m now quite familiar with everything!” Xiao Wu spoke with more confidence and strength than before.

“Good, keep an eye on things, and don’t hesitate to call me if there’s anything important.”

“Understood, boss.” Soon, they arrived at the airport, and after giving Xiao Wu some instructions, Zhou Chao entered the airport.

After three hours, Zhou Chao returned to Modu, gazing at the warm sun above and realizing he was dressed too warmly.

“Ding, ding, ding!” He answered the familiar call.

“Hello, boss! Have you landed?”

“Isn’t that obvious? I’m answering your call after getting off the plane. Did Xiao Wu tell you 1 was on a flight?”

“Hehe, it was arranged by the older brother. Since the older brother is in Peng City, he asked me to come and pick you up!”

“Alright, I just came out of the airport entrance.”

“Boss, I’m on my way!” Zhou Chao waited by the roadside for a while and then saw a Phantom pull up in front of him.

“Well done, Wang Feng! You guys have been doing a commendable job with the arrangements I’ve given.”

“Hehe, it’s just to ensure your safety. Older Brother Lin gave us some instructions too!” Zhou Chao didn’t know how to respond to their concern, but he understood that it was all for his own good.

“Okay, let’s go straight back to The Palms Residence.”

“Of course, boss! The company had arranged for cleaning at your home before your arrival!” Zhou Chao nodded in agreement.

They didn’t speak much during the journey, just quietly enjoying the scenery outside. Wang Feng noticed that the boss wasn’t talking, so he remained silent too.

The Rolls-Royce Phantom entered The Palms Residence’s underground parking lot. Zhou Chao opened the car door and walked down, glancing at the several cars covered by car covers. It reminded him that the two Volkswagen cars that were damaged earlier might have been repaired by now.

“Wang Feng, when you go back, ask Ling Chen about the arrangements for the group’s annual gala. Have him send me the plan to review,” Zhou Chao instructed Wang Feng before entering the elevator.

“Alright, boss!” Wang Feng responded, and Zhou Chao took the elevator to the upper floors while Wang Feng returned to the company.

Back at the company, Wang Feng headed straight for the president’s office.

“Knock, knock, knock!”

“Come in!”

“Ling Chen, the boss is back!” Wang Feng announced as he entered the office, where Ling Chen was looking at some documents.

“Does the boss have any instructions?”

“The boss told me to tell you to send him the plan for the annual gala as soon as possible.”

“Alright, 1 understand. I’ll send the event plan to the boss as soon as possible.” Upon hearing this, Wang Feng greeted Ling Chen and then left the office. Ling Chen, on the other hand, pinched his brow and continued to review the documents.

Meanwhile, Zhou Chao was lying on the sofa, enjoying the view of the Huangpu River.

“Bzzz, bzzz, bzzz!” Zhou Chao had set his phone to vibrate to rest peacefully, but within just 10 minutes, his phone started ringing.

“Hello, Qin Fen, is there something you need?”

“Chao’er, are you in Modu?” Qin Fen’s voice sounded relieved now, which added to Zhou Chao’s confusion.

“I just got back to Modu. What’s going on?”

“That’s great, you’re in Modu!” Qin Fen’s voice had become joyful. Zhou Chao couldn’t figure out what was happening.

“Here’s the situation: there’s a rich second generation who has some issues with me. He’s specifically coming to challenge us in a race. He’s not a slouch; he’s a professional racer himself. Initially, I thought you weren’t in Modu, so 1 considered borrowing your car for the race. Now that you’re back, I’d appreciate it if you could personally handle this tomorrow afternoon!” Zhou Chao had a general idea of the situation. The other party was quite arrogant and had been hurling insults. He was now eagerly anticipating the showdown tomorrow afternoon.

“Alright, I got it. Where’s the location?” Zhou Chao inquired.

“It’s the same place as our last race, Modu Raceway. I’ll give you more details when you arrive.”

“Got it!” Zhou Chao promptly ended the call and lay back on the couch..
