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

Chapter 696: The Five Great Avenues (2)

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Seeing a hint of difficulty on Lao Guo’s face, Zhou Chao instantly understood what was going on!

Just as Zhou Chao was about to change the subject, he heard Xiao Yueyue beside him say, “Young Master Zhou, you can go to the Eye of Tianjin, where you can see the night view of Tianjin!”

“Oh- What’s interesting about the Eye of Tianjin?” Zhou Chao asked curiously. “Young Master Zhou, the Eye of Tianjin is a giant Ferris wheel located on the Yongle Bridge at the intersection of Ligongci Street and Wuma Road in the

North Bank District of Tianjin. It spans the Haihe River, connecting the North

Bank District with the Hongqiao District.

It’s a Ferris wheel that serves both sightseeing and transportation functions.

It’s also one of Tianjin’s landmarks, with a diameter of 110 meters! It should be

the only Ferris wheel in the world built on a bridge!’

Upon hearing this information, Zhou Chao and Jiang Li became interested, especially Jiang Li, whose excitement was almost overflowing from her eyes.

• •Let’s go see it tomorrow!” Zhou Chao gently patted Jiang Li’s hand on his leg and said.

The group tacitly skipped over this topic and started chatting casually.

When Zhou Chao learned that Yu Qian’s zoo might be demolished, he was also surprised. He knew that Yu Qian’s zoo was not small in scale. If it really got demolished, Yu Qian would likely become a billionaire overnight!

Speaking of which, Zhou Chao remembered the zoo he had previously asked Tan Mingming to build, and he wondered how Little Tiger Mountain was doing

now.

“Well then, I might as well congratulate you in advance on your financial freedom!” Zhou Chao joked with a smile.

“Don’t… My little money is nothing compared to yours, it’s just a drop in the bucket!” Yu Qian quickly waved his hand.

“Alright, no matter what you say, a good meal is inevitable!”

“Yeah, even if we become demolition households, we can’t avoid treating each other to drinks!”

-Don’t worry, it’s definitely arranged. Let’s set a time and have a good drink in Jingdu!” Yu Qian didn’t refuse and agreed directly.

As they chatted among themselves, the restaurant owner and two waiters walked in with tempting dishes.

The hungry group, after a brief politeness, quickly started eating.

Each person grabbed a skewer and started eating.

Since Tianjin is close to the Bohai Sea, there’s also a wide variety of seafood available, ranging from lobsters and abalones to various scallops and crabs.

They ate until nearly one o’clock in the morning!

After dinner, Zhou Chao originally planned to return to the camper, but after being persuaded by Lao Guo and Yu Qian, he followed them to the five-star hotel where they were staying.

A night without words!

Zhou Chao and the others slept until about ten thirty the next day. Looking at the message sent by Lao Guo on his phone, he learned that they had gone out early in the morning.

They said they had some things to take care of. Zhou Chao probably understood what was going on. During dinner last night, he had a few chats and learned from Lao Guo’s mouth that they were planning to open a branch of

Deshe in Tianjin!

“Time to wake up, little lazy pig!” Zhou Chao looked at Jiang Li, who was still sleeping soundly, and reached out his evil hand.

Originally, Zhou Chao thought Jiang Li would wake up, but he didn’t expect her to reach out and hold his evil hand.

The movements on her hand involuntarily became a bit heavier, and in no time, Jiang Li’s pretty face turned pink, and her eyelashes blinked several times.

Seeing this, a mischievous smile appeared on Zhou Chao’s lips. He leaned down and blew two warm breaths into Jiang Li’s ear, “If you don’t wake up soon, don’t blame me!”

Just as he finished speaking, Zhou Chao felt Jiang Li tremble slightly. The next moment, Jiang Li opened her eyes, her spring-like gaze full of tenderness, looking at him.

“Not pretending anymore?” Zhou Chao joked with a smile.

“Hmph, you disturbed my sleep and still…”

Before Jiang Li could finish her sentence, Zhou Chao’s mouth covered hers, and her two hands naturally wrapped around Zhou Chao’s neck.

After a while, the two separated, and Jiang Li was still catching her breath.

Her small hand lightly hammered Zhou Chao’s chest several times. “You big bad guy, I almost couldn’t catch my breath!”

Zhou Chao withdrew his mischievous hand and was about to say something when he saw a pillow flying towards him, hitting him on the head.

Accompanied by a shy voice, “Brother Chao-

“Hehe, I’m going to take a shower, do you want to join?”

“I don’t want to!”

Zhou Chao shook his head in response to her answer, feeling helpless. He had the opportunity for a couple’s bath, but he regretted his own playful actions. With a gentle pat and a sigh, he made his way to the bathroom.

When the two of them came out of the room after getting ready, it was already noon. Lin Wu had been sitting in the hotel lobby for nearly three hours.

“Boss!” Lin Wu hurriedly approached when he saw Zhou Chao and Jiang Li coming out of the elevator.

“Have you been waiting long?” Zhou Chao glanced at Lin Wu’s condition and knew he had probably been waiting for a while.

“No!” Lin Wu quickly shook his head.

He couldn’t possibly say that he had been waiting for several hours. He originally wanted to go to Zhou Chao’s room, but when he thought that Jiang Li was also there, he dismissed the idea.

“Let’s find a place to eat casually, then go out for a stroll. We’ll go see what the

Eye of Tianjin is like tonight!”

Then the three of them found a restaurant nearby with a distinctive Tianjin style and had a simple meal.

“Boss, how about we go to the Five Great Avenues for a walk? I looked it up online, and they say there are many European-style buildings and interesting restaurants there!”

Zhou Chao pondered for a moment and nodded. “Sure, why not? Since there s nowhere else particularly interesting to go, let’s go take a look!”

To be honest, Zhou Chao didn’t have much interest in these European-style buildings. He had seen many of them when he was in the Magic City, and he figured they were probably similar to the ones on the Bund in Shanghai.

Back at the hotel, the three of them got into the car and headed towards the

Five Great Avenues.

Interestingly, one of the streets in the location of the Five Great Avenues was named Misty City Road. When Zhou Chao learned this, he became somewhat interested.

The Five Great Avenues were not far from where they were staying, and they arrived at their destination in less than twenty minutes.

The Five Great Avenues consist of five parallel streets running from south to north: Machang Road, Munan Road, Dali Road, Changde Road, and Misty City

Road.

It’s an area with a total of 4A-level scenic spots, established in the 1920s and 1930s, with over 2,000 garden-style houses of different national architectural styles.

They first went to Misty City Road, where the most famous building is the Prince Qing’s Mansion. Its blend of Chinese and Western styles was quite impressive even to Zhou Chao.

After strolling through Misty City Road, they explored the other four roads as well, indulging in plenty of local specialties and beverages.

There were many places along the Five Great Avenues suitable for afternoon tea, complemented by European-style architecture, which added a unique charm to the experience.

During their outing, Lao Guo called, saying they were almost done with their business and had planned to join Zhou Chao and the others, but Zhou Chao politely declined.

After all, the group from the German Society was somewhat famous, especially Lao Guo, Yu Qian, and Little Yu Yue. If they went shopping together, would he still enjoy it?

After exploring the Five Great Avenues, they headed to the Italian-style scenic area. It was similar to the Five Great Avenues but with many more specialty snacks, including Italian flavors.

By the time they finished exploring the Italian-style scenic area, it was already getting dark. They decided to have an Italian dinner there, but unfortunately, it left Zhou Chao and the others slightly disappointed.

“Let’s go to the Eye of Tianjin!”

“Great!” Jiang Li exclaimed excitedly. After all, the Ferris wheel was attractive to every girl, especially when with her beloved.

The Italian-style scenic area wasn’t far from the Eye of Tianjin, about a ten-minute drive, but they didn’t drive because parking there was inconvenient.

Taking a taxi to the Eye of Tianjin, they found many couples already lining up. “Lin Wu, I think you’d better wait for me down here. It won’t be fun for you alone!” Zhou Chao teased Lin Wu.

Lin Wu opened his mouth as if to say something but couldn’t find the words, so he just nodded helplessly and sent the tickets he had previously booked to Zhou Chao’s phone.

Helplessly watching the two of them get on the Ferris wheel, Lin Wu felt a pang of loneliness in his heart.

“Next time, I’ll bring Li Qian here too!” Thinking about it, he sent a picture of Tianjin to his wife..
