109: Chapter 109 Returning Home!

Shen Zhou's opulence shocked quite a few people.

In less than half an hour, a large number of press releases appeared in various domestic news media.

Everyone was discussing Shen Zhou's name and his massive investment this time.

Whether it was the nearly 700 million at the Auction or the 1 billion about to be used to build a museum.

All of this was shocking to the eyes of netizens.

Before Shen Zhou had even set off, phones kept ringing with calls to his mobile.

"Hello, Mr. Shen, I am from the Shanghai Cultural Relics Bureau. When would it be convenient for us to visit you..."

"Hello, Mr. Shen, I am from the Chaoyang District of Beijing..."

Personnel from various relevant units called Shen Zhou one after another.

They didn't state their demands directly, but very politely and enthusiastically invited Shen Zhou to visit their respective regions.

It was obvious that they all wanted to vie for the 1 billion investment Shen Zhou had mentioned to land in their area.

Shen Zhou initially answered several calls with great interest.

Very quickly, however, he lost interest.

Soon, even Si Cong called.

"Goodness, my Young Master Shen, you are too lavish with your spending. You've almost made all of us friends' eyes pop out in shock!"

"Hahaha, Young Master Wang is too polite!"

"Alright Old Shen, now that you're coming back, we should finally meet up. Everyone has been missing you day and night!"

"No problem. Once I get back and handle the matters at hand, I'll come find you!"

Shen Zhou gave a definite reply.

Because whether it was the upcoming museum construction or the favors he owed, he needed to meet with that group of wealthy young masters.

He hadn't rushed to put this on the agenda before, mainly because his weight in everyone's hearts wasn't enough yet.

Presumably, after this massive expenditure, no matter what background that group of second-generation heirs in Shanghai had, they probably wouldn't be too impulsive.

After taking Si Cong's call, Shen Zhou immediately turned off his phone.

"Shuangshuang, please book our return flight tickets. I probably won't be able to turn my phone on for a while."

Things back home were still a mess, so he might as well go back as soon as possible.

"Alright, darling."

Xue Shuangshuang began booking first-class tickets without hesitation.

Although she didn't have much in savings, buying a few first-class tickets wasn't a problem.

"Let's not go out tonight to avoid anyone taking risks. We'll go straight to the airport from the hotel tomorrow."

Shen Zhou thought for a moment and made his decision.

After all, this was a foreign country where firearms were freely available; even with two bodyguards, he had to be cautious.

Early the next morning, the foreign Auctioneer from the Sugade Auction House came personally to see Shen Zhou off.

"Mr. Shen, your four treasures have all departed."

"When they are close to reaching China, specialized personnel will transport them to the appropriate location according to your requirements."

"Any accidents that occur during this process will be borne by us, the Sugade Auction House."

"Finally, thank you once again for your support of the Sugade Auction House."

The foreign Auctioneer bowed respectfully in thanks.

"You're too kind."

Shen Zhou nodded with a smile.

The two bodyguards, Old Liu and his companion, who were guarding Shen Zhou, were now like radars, scanning their surroundings with sharp, alert eyes.

Finally, the group took the Rolls-Royce prepared by the reception at the Sofitel Hotel and successfully arrived at the international airport's VIP boarding gate.

The entire flight was very smooth, and soon Shen Zhou and his party successfully landed at the Shanghai airport.

Stepping onto Chinese soil once again, Shen Zhou felt much more at ease.

"It's still better to be back home; at least the sanitary environment is much better than in Europe!"

Shen Zhou looked around and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Actually, the environment where we went was okay, but the sanitary conditions in other parts of Europe are unwatchable."

Xue Shuangshuang was equally moved.

After all, as a flight attendant on international flights, she had been to quite a few countries.

In terms of public hygiene, China definitely has a lot to be proud of.

On the way home, Shen Zhou turned on his phone immediately.

Then, a series of WeChat notification sounds rang out continuously.

Chen Xiaoran: "Brother, I saw your news. You are too amazing! You snatched up four national treasures in one go!"

Han Bingqing: "Senior, Tang Xue and I have recently fallen in love with cycling. When will you be free to join us?"

The message Han Bingqing sent also included a whole set of beautiful cycling photos.

In the photos, the two female college students were still dressed in black and white.

Only this time, both of them had ponytails, looking very youthful and beautiful under the sunlight.

Li Manzhi: "Shen Zhou, Sister Lan and I have reached a strategic cooperation relationship, and my trendy brand is thriving. When will you have time to come and give me some advice?"

"By the way, do you like red or black?"

Li Manzhi sent a series of private photos of herself wearing silk stockings.

In the photos, her cheeks were slightly flushed, and she was biting her lip gently; the aura of a young married woman was palpable.

This immediately made Shen Zhou stiffen slightly in respect.

Lin Lan: "You rascal, Shen Zhou, so you are that rich. No wonder you haven't been motivated at work."

"Remember to come over to my place for a meal when you get back!"

Shen Zhou replied to them, a faint smile on his face.

He didn't avoid Xue Shuangshuang, who was beside him; this was also a test he thought of on a whim.

If Xue Shuangshuang really minded, then things between them would just have to end there.

Xue Shuangshuang just held onto Shen Zhou's arm, observing the scene of Shen Zhou chatting with several women with great interest.

"Darling, have you always been working at this Sister Lan's company?"

"Yeah, I quite like that job. Of course, the most important thing is to finish what I started."

Shen Zhou said with some emotion.

By now, the project he was in charge of should be almost finished.

This was the real reason why he rarely went to the company during this period.

"By the way, Shuangshuang, how about you come to my place in a bit?"

Shen Zhou asked with a smile.

"Ah..."

Xue Shuangshuang's face flushed red instantly.

After the European trip, she had long been mentally prepared for other women to be around Shen Zhou.

But that didn't mean she wanted to serve Shen Zhou together with different women.

Various indescribable scenes instantly flooded her mind.

Slowly, even her earlobes began to turn red and hot.

"What are you thinking about? There's no one else at my place right now."

Shen Zhou guessed what Xue Shuangshuang was thinking and was speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Shuangshuang, since we haven't had a chance to properly explore the country lately, why don't you just move in and keep me company?"

Shen Zhou gently stroked Xue Shuangshuang's smooth back.

"Ah... is this okay? But I still have to go to work normally."

"And sometimes I don't get back until midnight; will that disturb your rest?"

Xue Shuangshuang's little mouth opened slightly, and the only thing left in her mind was the word "cohabitation."
