After Louis and Chen Ze completed the transfer of ownership, Chen Ze transferred 40 million euros to him.
Once the money arrived, Louis first repaid the bank 20 million euros, then another 12 million euros, and subsequently repaid his relatives and friends 10 million euros.
He ended up with ten million euros left, and he considered what kind of business to start.
"Mr. Chen, to celebrate our successful transaction, I would like to cordially invite you to my home for dinner tonight."
Seeing Louis's sincere expression, Chen Ze readily agreed.
As evening fell, at the Louis Villa restaurant, the tables were set with tender roasted steaks, fruit salad, and several bottles of fine vintage red wine.
As Chen Ze, Shen Xiyu, and Zhang Guoheng entered the restaurant, an enticing aroma wafted towards them.
“Mr. Chen, please have a seat. This is a steak I grilled myself,” Louis greeted warmly.
After the group sat down, Amy opened a bottle of red wine and poured it for the three of them.
Louis stood up, raised his glass, and said with a smile, "Come on, let's have a drink."
"Cheers!" everyone shouted in unison.
After everyone clinked glasses, Louis was the first to drink his wine in one gulp, and then said, "This is a wine I've treasured for many years, and it tastes excellent."
Chen Ze took a sip of red wine, the liquid sliding down his throat, with a unique fruity aroma and mellow taste.
Next, they started cutting the steak. The beef was tender and juicy, and everyone chatted while eating.
During the meal, Amy, who was sitting next to Chen Ze, kept secretly glancing at him.
Amy raised her glass to Chen Ze and said softly, "Mr. Chen, Miss Shen told me that your business in China is very successful. I'd like to toast you and wish you continued success in your business in Greece."
Chen Ze raised his glass to hers, smiled, and replied, "Thank you!"
Before long, the glass of enticing, fragrant red wine was finished in one gulp.
As the liquor slid down his throat and into his stomach, he soon began to feel dizzy, and his vision seemed to blur.
He couldn't help but wonder: How could this red wine be so potent, making him drunk so quickly? He used to drink several glasses without getting this drunk!
Just then, Chen Ze, Shen Xiyu, and Zhang Guoheng, who were sitting to the side, all suddenly went limp and collapsed onto the table.
At that moment, the Louises exchanged a glance, their lips curving upwards into a barely perceptible smile.
Amy, sitting across the table, looked at her parents with a worried expression: "Mom and Dad, Mr. Chen has five bodyguards outside. What should we do?"
Louis smiled confidently and reassured his daughter, "Honey, don't worry. Right now, they're probably completely drunk."
As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up and walked briskly toward the room where the servants ate.
Sure enough, when he pushed open the door, he found that the five strong bodyguards were lying haphazardly on the table, fast asleep, just as he had expected, and did not respond at all to anyone calling them.
Seeing this, Louis nodded in satisfaction and turned back to the restaurant.
Then, he and his wife carefully helped Zhang Guoheng and Shen Xiyu up and slowly walked towards the guest room.
After settling the two people in, they returned to the restaurant, helped Chen Ze up, and escorted him to Amy's room.
Entering the room, the mother gently cupped her daughter's face, tenderly kissed her smooth forehead, and whispered her words of advice:
"My dear daughter, it's up to you to do your best now."
“Mmm,” Amy nodded obediently.
The next morning, Louis invited all the relatives and friends who had lent him money the previous year to his home.
Before long, the hall was filled with relatives, friends and their children.
Louis said loudly, "Dear relatives and friends, I am here today for two reasons: first, to thank you all for your help last year; and second, because I have sold Anya Island and am going to return the money to you today."
When relatives and friends learned that Louis was going to repay them, they all sent people home to fetch the IOUs.
Louis then transferred the money to them one by one, according to the amounts stated on the IOUs.
Sunlight streamed through the windows into the spacious and bright living room, where a petite, pretty sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl skipped and hopped over to Louise, who was sitting on the sofa.
She blinked her bright, lively eyes and asked with a face full of curiosity, "Uncle, where's my cousin? I haven't seen her."
Louis smiled indulgently and gently patted the girl's head: "Annie, your cousin is still sleeping in her room, probably having a sweet dream right now!"
"Oh...I see."
Anne nodded thoughtfully, then said excitedly, "Then I'll go wake her up, hehe!" With that, she turned and ran towards the bedroom.
Meanwhile, in the bedroom, Amy had already woken up.
She turned to the side and gazed quietly at Chen Ze lying beside her. He was sleeping soundly, completely naked, revealing his well-defined muscles and impressive six-pack abs.
Amy couldn't help but reach out her slender fingers and gently stroke his abdomen, feeling the texture of those hard muscles.
Then, her hand slowly moved upwards, gently touching Chen Ze's face, as if she wanted to deeply imprint his image in her heart.
Just then, a loud "bang" was heard, and the bedroom door was suddenly pushed open.
Amy turned around in shock, her face instantly turning deathly pale. Standing in the doorway was none other than her cousin, Annie.
At that moment, Annie stared wide-eyed and mouth agape, looking at the scene on the bed in shock—her cousin was tightly embracing a naked stranger, and what surprised her even more was that this man actually had an Asian face!
Upon seeing the person who came in, Amy hurriedly covered Chen Ze with a blanket.
"Cousin, stop covering it! I can see it all! Oh my god, am I seeing things?"
Amy yelled angrily, "Who told you to come in without knocking? Get out!"
"Hmph! Fine, I'll get out then." With that, she turned and ran out of the bedroom.
Soon, Annie ran to the hall and found her uncle, panting, and said, "Uncle, something terrible has happened! My cousin is secretly hiding a man in her bedroom!"
Anne's mother pinched her ear and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? Shut up right now!"
Louis's mouth dropped open, his face filled with disbelief. If his top-notch acting skills were in Hollywood, he would probably win a big gold medal.
"Really? Annie?"
Anne nodded vigorously, "More real than the moon in the sky."
Anne's mother smiled and said to her brother, "Big brother, I've spoiled Anne. Don't listen to her nonsense. I believe Amy isn't like that..."
Louis raised his hand to stop her from continuing.
