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

Chapter 650: Apologize!

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

In the blink of an eye, five days had passed.

During these five days, Zhou Chao and his companions thoroughly explored Lu Island. They had visited the Yalong Bay Tropical Paradise Forest Park and even spent two days on Wuzhizhou Island.

The island offered a plethora of entertainment options, including underwater diving, fishing, beach motorcycling, beach volleyball, and more than thirty other activities. Everyone had a blast during those two days!

Apart from these two places, they also visited many other famous attractions in Lu City such as Tianya Haijiao, Yanoda Rainforest, and Dadonghai.

Besides sightseeing, even the internet-famous beauties around Si Cong and the others had changed several times. By the end, Zhou Chao couldn’t even recognize who was who anymore.

“Ah, we’re leaving tomorrow, and I must say, I’m going to miss this place.” Si Cong sighed while holding a coconut and lounging on a chair at Yalong Bay Beach.

“I bet it’s not the scenery you’ll miss but rather the beautiful women here,” Hou Ting quipped mercilessly, exposing Si Cong’s true intentions.

“That’s absolutely not true! Don’t you all believe in my good character?”

Si Cong looked expectantly at Zhou Chao and the others, only to receive unanimous nods.

“Ah, it turns out I’m the fool!” Si Cong slumped in his chair, feeling completely drained.

Zhou Chao and the others burst into laughter, teasing Si Cong a bit more.

At that moment, Lin Wu hurried over to Zhou Chao’s side and whispered,

“Boss, Liu Xu wants to see you. He’s waiting for you at a snackbar not far from here!”

“Why does Liu Xu want to see me?”

Although Zhou Chao was puzzled, he nodded lightly.

“I see, I’ll go over right away.”

Lin Wu nodded and turned to leave.

Zhou Chao then informed Abdullah and the others that he had something to attend to and headed towards the snack bar behind him.

Entering the seaside snack bar, he spotted Liu Xu sitting with a bodyguard at a table by the window. The bodyguard seemed familiar to Zhou Chao—it was Chen Feng, the one Lin Wu had shown him in the video before.

Seeing Zhou Chao enter, Chen Feng quickly reminded Liu Xu, “Young Master Liu, Mr. Zhou is here.”

Liu Xu, who had been absentmindedly staring at the beach in the distance, snapped out of his reverie and hastily put on a somewhat courteous smile upon seeing Zhou Chao approach.

“Mr. Zhou, I apologize for disturbing your rest and relaxation,” Liu Xu quickly stood up, bowing slightly.

Zhou Chao was a bit taken aback by Liu Xu’s change in attitude in just a few days. How could his demeanor make such a complete turnaround?

A mischievous smile tugged at the corners of Zhou Chao’s mouth as he softly remarked to Liu Xu, “I’m not quite fond of your current demeanor. I rather admired your previous rebellious spirit.”

With that, Zhou Chao took a seat.

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Liu Xu forced a smile and inwardly grumbled, “I also want to be rebellious, but when I encounter a wolf in sheep’s clothing like you, I have no choice.”

Glancing at Liu Xu, who was still standing, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but wonder what had caused such a drastic change in his attitude.

“You didn’t invite me here just for old times’ sake, did you? Spit it out, what’s the matter?” Thinking of Liu Xu’s previous attitude, Zhou Chao already had a guess about what he was up to. It was probably about apologizing and asking for forgiveness, but he was curious about where he had learned about him.

Seeing Zhou Chao speak up, Liu Xu didn’t beat around the bush. He straightened up from his bow and gave Zhou Chao a ninety-degree bow, “Young Master Zhou, I was offensive before, and I ask for your forgiveness!” Seeing the respectful Liu Xu, Zhou Chao didn’t rush to answer. He simply looked at him calmly, while Liu Xu remained bowed, showing no intention of getting up.

After about twenty seconds or so, Zhou Chao spoke softly, “First, straighten up. If others see you like this, they might think I am bullying you!”

“Yes, Young Master Zhou!” Liu Xu quickly straightened his posture, a hint of smile appearing on his face. He knew things were progressing in a positive direction.

Casting a glance at Liu Xu, Zhou Chao then casually said, “Have a seat.”

“Okay!” Liu Xu’s smile widened, and he promptly took his seat, also signaling for the waiter to come over.

“Young Master Zhou, please take a look at the menu and let me know what you’d like to drink.” He handed the menu to Zhou Chao with both hands.

Zhou Chao didn’t show any particular expression, took a glance at the menu, and didn’t feel like anything in particular. He randomly chose something.

“I’ll have a coconut juice, please.” With that, he passed the menu to the nearby waiter.

The waiter acted swiftly, and within a minute, returned with a coconut in hand. Zhou Chao took a sip, feeling the coolness which brought a sense of comfort. “So, tell me, why the drastic change in attitude after just a few days? Before, you were investigating our whereabouts. How come you’re backing down so easily now?” Zhou Chao asked with a hint of sarcasm.

Liu Xu forced a wry smile. “Young Master Zhou, please don’t tease me anymore. It was my oversight before, and I hope you won’t hold it against me.”

Zhou Chao looked at Liu Xu meaningfully and chuckled, “If your answer satisfies me, I might consider.”

At this point, Zhou Chao had already realized that Liu Xu truly knew his identity. Otherwise, as the successor of the billion-dollar Liu family conglomerate, how could he have surrendered so easily? It seemed he had some tricks up his sleeve..
