Chapter 768: Foot Washing Massage! (2)
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Young Master Zhou, about my cousin’s matter…”

Li Yao was interrupted by Zhou Chao before he could finish speaking.

“Oh, Brother Yao, what matter are you talking about? I don’t remember. And isn’t it a bit too formal for you to keep calling me Young Master Zhou?”

Zhou Chao paused for a moment before saying this. Just considering Li Yao’s relationship with Xiao Yang and Jiang Yu, Li Yao was on their side. Although there had been some conflicts before, they were minor issues.

Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Li Yao was taken aback for a moment before bursting into laughter.

“Haha, right, right, I was being narrow-minded!”

“Oh, what are you two chatting about? You’re laughing so happily!” Chen Feiyang pushed the door open and walked in from outside, looking at Zhou Chao and Li Yao with some confusion.

Li Yao asked with a faint smile, “Just chatting. Weren’t you going to see Yang and Jiang Yu? Why are you back so soon?”

“Forget it, it’s infuriating! I should have gone with them for the full spa treatment instead of just a simple massage like we had here!”

Chen Feiyang sighed and shook his head while speaking. His eyes, however, kept glancing back and forth between Zhou Chao and Li Yao, as if saying, “Why don’t you ask me?”

Seeing Chen Feiyang’s envious expression, the two exchanged glances, feeling curious about what had happened.

“Don’t beat around the bush, just spill it. Don’t keep us in suspense!” Li Yao didn’t indulge him, going straight to the point.

Chen Feiyang cleared his throat and stopped playing games of questions and answers. He then recounted what he had seen and heard.

It turned out that the foot treatment service at Chang’an Club had launched a new project, offering an experience of the luxurious lifestyle of ancient emperors. Xiao Yang and Jiang Yu happened to enjoy this service.

There were not just one or two beautiful technicians but four of them for one person!

They were not only dressed very provocatively but also provided exceptional service. One massaged the feet, two massaged the hands, and one even massaged the head. When he saw this scene, his eyes turned red!

Zhou Chao could already imagine such a scene, although he didn’t know the specifics. However, judging from the beautiful technicians who massaged them, it was evident that Xiao Yang and Jiang Yu were thoroughly enjoying themselves!

“Ahem, Zhou… Chao, why don’t we go for a foot wash too?” Li Yao’s eyes lit up as he looked at Zhou Chao.

“Ahem, I’ll pass. The massage was already very comfortable!” Zhou Chao replied.

Li Yao’s disappointment flickered in his eyes for a moment but disappeared instantly.

“Feiyang, I’ll pass too. If you want to experience it, go ahead by yourself!”

After all, his main purpose today was to improve his relationship with Zhou Chao. If he abandoned Zhou Chao and Chen Feiyang to experience this special foot massage, wouldn’t he be neglecting Zhou Chao again?

“If you’re not going, then I won’t go either!” Chen Feiyang wasn’t a fool; he naturally noticed some clues.

Besides, there would be plenty of opportunities to experience it later, so there was no need to rush at the moment.

Just as the three were about to lie down and rest while waiting for Xiao Yang and Jiang Yu, they saw the two of them walking in looking refreshed, especially Jiang Yu, who seemed to be walking on air.

It seemed they had a great time.

“Hey, back already? Looks like everything was arranged well!” Zhou Chao teased them.

Hearing Zhou Chao’s words, both of them stiffened.

They had seen Chen Feiyang visit their room earlier, so they assumed Zhou Chao and Li Yao knew what services they had enjoyed.

The thought of Zhou Chao accidentally revealing it later made them dread the idea of facing the consequences.

“Ahem, it’s getting late, we should head back!” Xiao Yang, as the elder brother, was the one everyone listened to.

After a brief packing up, they took the elevator out of the Chang’an Club.

In the parking lot, they exchanged a few words before preparing to go their separate ways.

“Xiao Chao, wait a moment, I need to talk to you about something, and Jiang Yu too!”

Just as Zhou Chao was about to get into his car, he heard Xiao Yang’s voice and closed the car door, walking briskly over.

“Brother Yang, is there something else?”

Jiang Yu also approached.

Xiao Yang glanced at Jiang Yu, then back at Zhou Chao, and said, “Xiao Chao, tonight we’ll just have a simple meal and chat over tea afterward, nothing else!”

After saying this, Xiao Yang felt his face flush with embarrassment.

Hearing Xiao Yang’s words, Zhou Chao immediately understood. It seemed Xiao Yang was worried he might inadvertently spill the beans when he got home.

But thinking about it, Zhou Chao also understood Xiao Yang’s concern. Whether it was the Xiao family or the Jiang family, they were quite strict in terms of upbringing, and the simplest rule was not allowing any mischief outside!

If he accidentally let slip, they might end up being whipped with an ’82 belt!

Jiang Yu snapped out of his daze and said nervously, “Xiao Chao, you mustn’t tell Jiang Li about this!”

“Don’t worry, I won’t tell Jiang Li. You two can rest assured!” Zhou Chao reassured them.

Hearing Zhou Chao’s assurance, Xiao Yang nodded. He knew Zhou Chao was reliable and wouldn’t joke about such matters.

“Alright, let’s head back. It’s already ten o’clock!”

Zhou Chao nodded and then got into his car, giving a nod to the two before driving away.

Watching the Rolls-Royce merge into the traffic, Jiang Yu sighed, “Who would have thought that the sapling from before has grown into a big tree now, even I have to rely on his shade to shelter from the wind and rain!”

“A big tree? He’s already become a towering tree. If nothing unexpected happens, in the future, both of our families will follow Zhou Chao’s lead!”

Thinking of recent observations and some things his grandfather had hinted at, he understood that Zhou Chao was the future pillar of both the Xiao and Jiang families.

“How is that possible!” Jiang Yu looked at Xiao Yang in shock, his mouth gaping wide enough to fit a big green mango!

Xiao Yang didn’t explain much, just patted his shoulder lightly and said, “Your training in the special forces was also to temper your character, to grow up as soon as possible and shoulder responsibilities in the future!”

After saying this, Xiao Yang didn’t pay much attention to the stunned Jiang Yu, just got into his car and drove away.

A cold wind blew by, and Jiang Yu snapped out of his daze. He didn’t know what he had realized, but there was something different in his eyes now—a sense of responsibility called duty!

Looking up at the sky, he noticed snowflakes drifting down.

Back at home, Zhou Chao found Jiang Li still sitting on the sofa watching TV.

“You’re back!” Jiang Li stood up from the sofa as soon as she saw Zhou Chao return.

“Hey, be careful! You should sit still on the sofa. Next time, don’t stand up so quickly!” Zhou Chao jogged over and pushed Jiang Li back onto the sofa.

“I know… Ouch!” Jiang Li’s smile twisted into a grimace.

Hearing Jiang Li’s cry, Zhou Chao instantly felt his scalp tingle, his expression nervous as he asked, “What’s wrong, Ah Li?”

Jiang Li forced a smile and said, “Brother Chao, don’t worry, everything’s fine. The baby just kicked me!”

As she spoke, she lovingly stroked her large belly.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chao’s originally tense heart immediately relaxed. He playfully extended his right hand to caress Jiang Li’s belly and said, “Little one, if you keep kicking your mom’s belly, when you come out, see how I’ll deal with you!”

Jiang Li chuckled heartily, her previous discomfort disappearing completely.

Watching Zhou Chao press his ear against her belly, Jiang Li couldn’t help but reach out and stroke his head.

Feeling the tender touch on his head, Zhou Chao lifted his head to look at Jiang Li. Their eyes met, and both could see the anticipation for their baby in each other’s eyes!
