First spoiled, then love

Chapter 509: Not Fat, I Just Like Your Big Legs (10000)

"Boss Gao, I don't like what you said." Chen Qingrong helped Tang Xiaoru to speak out her true feelings. "The project is in its initial stage. If you suddenly stop supplying us with materials, how can we continue the project? You don't think we can negotiate with a second material supplier in such a short time, do you?"

"Even if we are really gifted, what about this downtime? What about our project? For such a large project, does Mr. Gao know how much money we will lose in a day? I think we are all adults and honest businessmen. We should at least think carefully before making a decision."

Gao Feng looked even more helpless than them. "Boss Chen, it's not that I didn't want to cooperate with you on purpose. I'm in a difficult situation myself. You said I cooperated with you because of my brother-in-law. We only make a little bit of gross profit. I have such a big company to support. I can't not eat."

"Now that a big company like BR has found me and wants to cooperate with me, I can't refuse. After all, I need to survive. Don't you think so?"

Chen Qingrong sneered, "Haha, now that you've hooked up with BR, you've become more arrogant. You even said that you're only cooperating with us because of your brother-in-law's face. Do you believe that?"

"Okay, no need to argue with him about this." Tang Xiaoru saw that Chen Qingrong was about to lose his temper, so she interrupted to calm him down, and then said to Gao Feng, "Since Mr. Gao insists on ending the cooperation with us, I will not force you to stop me. However, we have a contract. If you force the termination, you have to pay three times the liquidated damages. Is this okay?"

Gao Feng said with great confidence, "No problem, no problem. I will have someone send the termination agreement to your company on Monday. After you sign it, I will immediately transfer the liquidated damages to your company account."

Tang Xiaoru said, "Pay the penalty first, then we'll sign."

Gao Feng thought about it and smiled, "Okay, wait a minute. I won't bother you two anymore. I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, he hugged the little girl and left.

After they left, Chen Qingrong said irritably, "Let's go home first. I don't want to buy glasses. I'm not in the mood. Damn, it's such an unlucky day today."

Tang Xiaoru took his arm and coaxed him, "Don't be angry, husband. Don't let a bad guy affect our mood. Just listen to my arrangements, okay?"

Chen Qingrong gritted his teeth and looked at her. "When do you think the BR people contacted Gao Feng? Did they contact Gao Feng because they knew we might be their competitors, so they wanted to strike us first?"

Tang Xiaoru pondered for a moment and analyzed, "I think there is such a possibility, but I am not sure, and you don't have to worry about the material supplier. We have other relationships that can be used."

Chen Qingrong smiled helplessly, "Don't try to fool me. The material suppliers we worked with before were too small. For a large project like Mr. Liu's, ordinary small companies really can't handle it. I think I should talk to other large companies while the last batch of materials on the construction site is not used up."

"Even if we give up a little more profit, we can't let it break off track. Otherwise, our losses will be even greater."

Tang Xiaoru said seriously, "When did I ever say I wasn't sure? If I tell you not to worry, then you really don't have to worry. I'll take care of everything. I'll handle this matter."

"If I leave everything to you, then wouldn't I, as your husband, be useless?"

"Who said you're useless? You're very useful." Tang Xiaoru said as she handed him a pair of glasses, "Put them on and let me see."

"Ok."

Although Chen Qingrong was annoyed, he didn't want to spoil Tang Xiaoru's fun, so he took the glasses and put them on his face.

Just right.

Tang Xiaoru smiled, "Very handsome, it's good to look at handsome guys, it's pleasing to the eyes, you see, you still say you are useless, isn't this your greatest use?"

Chen Qingrong rolled his eyes. "So I've become a vase, right? But I still find this quite useful."

Chen Qingrong has a classic child mentality: he gets angry easily, but is also easy to coax.

After some selection, Tang Xiaoru finally decided to buy a pair of square lenses with blue temples for Chen Qingrong. After Chen Qingrong put them on, he looked very cultured and well-mannered.

Because they didn't go to the Go club until nine o'clock in the evening, they went home first.

After Chen Qingrong got home, he threw the clothes into the washing machine to wash them, while Tang Xiaoru went back to the study to type.

As for Chen Qingrong, although his editor also urged him to write a new book, he was now too proud to do so. He always felt that the money he earned from one novel was enough for him to live on, and there was no need to write a second one. In addition, he really had no inspiration, so he kept putting it off.

drop.

Shui Ling sent him another WeChat message, "Share the link, share the link, share the link. Here, these three are the most popular genres on the site, and they all have very good results. See if you can learn from them."

Chen Qingrong replied, "Are you asking me to plagiarize them? Isn't that too despicable?"

Shui Ling, "Roll your eyes, jpg. Who asked you to plagiarize? I asked you to learn this genre. You can think of it as following the trend. Isn't it the same in the online literature world? After a genre becomes popular, novels of this genre will be written for a long time. This is also the reason why online literature is updated and iterated and the elimination rate is so high now. It's because readers get bored too easily. If you can't come up with something new, readers will basically pass you by after reading the title and introduction."

Chen Qingrong clicked on the links and took a look before replying, "I can't write about the popular and beast-controlling genres. I'm better at writing about daily love."

Shui Ling, "Then you should start writing, brother! Judging from the performance of your last book, if you want to keep your fans, you have to strike while the iron is hot and write a new book. Otherwise, after readers have read other people's books, no one will bother with you anymore."

Chen Qingrong, "Well, let me think about it first. Don't worry, I will send it to you directly after I have it figured out."

Shui Ling, "Sweat, hurry up, write something different from last time!"

Chen Qingrong didn't reply.

Although he knew Shui Ling meant well, he still felt a lot of pressure every time he chatted with her.

Just when he finished washing the clothes and took them to the balcony to dry, Tang Xiaoru came out, stretching lazily.

"Okay, husband, I've finished writing 4,000 words and published them. Are you still hanging clothes?" Tang Xiaoru walked to the balcony and hugged Chen Qingrong's waist from behind.

The sun outside was very strong today, but when the sunlight shone on the body, it made people feel very comfortable, especially when she hugged Chen Qingrong in this backhug way, with her face pressed against Chen Qingrong's back. She could clearly smell the pleasant scent of shower gel on Chen Qingrong's body.

This is the smell of her man.

Tang Xiaoru sometimes thought that if she became blind one day and could no longer see, she would be able to find Chen Qingrong just by the smell.

"Thank you for your hard work, great writer." Chen Qingrong turned around and hugged her, then lowered his head and pecked Tang Xiaoru's little mouth.

Tang Xiaoru closed her eyes with a look of enjoyment.

Chen Qingrong was somewhat tempted and asked tentatively, "How about I pull the sofa to the balcony?"

Tang Xiaoru immediately understood what he was going to do. She widened her eyes and punched him in the chest, saying shyly, "Are you going to die? What if someone sees you in broad daylight? If you want to do something stupid, at least wait until night."

Chen Qingrong laughed dryly, "I'm mainly afraid of mosquitoes at night."

"There are so many mosquitoes. We live on such a high floor that mosquitoes can't get up here." Tang Xiaoru said confidently, "I have an idea, honey. I want to buy a new house."

"Why do you want to buy another house? We already have two houses." Chen Qingrong didn't understand.

Tang Xiaoru pouted, "We won't live in the house across the street. It's used to entertain relatives. The house we live in now is a bit small. I want to buy a big villa."

"Tomson First Grade?"

"Well, it's not impossible."

"Wow, is a poor loser like me worthy of living in Tomson First Floor?" Chen Qingrong laughed at himself, "Forget it. With my temperament, if I really walk in, the security guards probably won't believe that I am the owner. I don't look rich at all."

Tang Xiaoru didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "It's just a shabby residential area. Anyone with money can live there. Don't think that Tomson Yipin is so grand. The real rich people live in courtyard houses in Beijing. To be frank, Tomson Yipin is occupied by a bunch of local tycoons."

"Well, but I can't afford either Tomson First Class or Siheyuan." Chen Qingrong was overestimating his own means.

Tang Xiaoru raised her eyebrows, "What if I add my savings? I can't afford a Siheyuan, but I can still buy Tomson Yipin."

"Think about it again, honey." Chen Qingrong was not very optimistic about this plan. "I think it's good for us to live here now. After getting familiar with a place, I don't want to move. There's an old saying that goes, no place is better than your own."

"But our current house is indeed a little small. It's fine for two people to live in. You'll know how embarrassing it will be when we have a child. You can't let the child sleep with us when he's ten years old, right?"

"Isn't there another house?"

"That room is not suitable for the baby." Tang Xiaoru thought for a long time, "Our conditions are not very poor, why should we let the baby suffer?"

When Chen Qingrong heard her say this, he immediately thought of their future twins.

Yes, not only will they have a child, but they will have two children, a boy and a girl. It’s okay when they are young, but you can’t let a pair of children sleep in the same bed when they are sixteen or seventeen years old, right?
hiss!
Why does this plot have some signs of developing towards orthopedics?
After Chen Qingrong struggled internally for a while, he finally said, "You are very thoughtful. How about this? After we meet with Mr. Xuanyuan tonight, we will start looking for a new house tomorrow."

Tang Xiaoru smiled with satisfaction, "Yeah, Bingbing and her family are also going to buy a new house, we can go and see it together."

"Yang Bingbing and her family are also going to buy a new house? Their house should be bigger than ours, right? Isn't it big enough for their family of three to sleep in?"

"It's enough, but Bingbing wants to move to a new house in a school district. Their baby will definitely go to school after it is born. There are not many schools around their current house, and it's still a bit far from the city, so they plan to move to a house in a school district with schools nearby."

The explanation given by Tang Xiaoru is very reasonable.

Chen Qingrong sighed, "It is precisely because of people like Yang Bingbing who have money but nowhere to spend it that housing prices remain high."

"Nonsense." Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him, then smacked her lips and asked tentatively, "Do you think we should tell Liang Qingyun and the others about buying a house? After all, that's what their family does."

Chen Qingrong thought about it and shook his head. "Forget it. If I tell Qingyun and the others, I'm afraid they will just give us one house for free, or sell it to us at a very low price. It's hard to repay a favor, and I don't really want to owe them this favor."

Tang Xiaoru nodded, "Well, I'll listen to you then."

As we chatted, it got dark.

Chen Qingrong downloaded the plan sent to him by Gao Qiang on WeChat and showed it to Tang Xiaoru.

After reading it carefully, Tang Xiaoru made a basic assessment of the project discussed by Gao Qiang and his team, and concluded that it had great potential.

So she wrote some of her opinions and asked Chen Qingrong to send it back to Gao Qiang.

Gao Qiang replied immediately, "Received!"

Chen Qingrong asked, "Where are you now?"

Gao Qiang, "I'm going to invite Susu's uncle, aunt, and other elders to dinner tonight. I'm on my way to pick up Susu."

Chen Qingrong, "You've invited the elders to dinner, are you planning to get engaged?"

Gao Qiang, "Shy, almost. I won't talk to you for now. I'm driving."

Chen Qingrong, "Good luck to you."

Gao Qiang didn't reply again.

Chen Qingrong and his friends waited until the time was almost up and then drove to the Go club.

Tonight, Chen Qingrong wore the newly bought glasses as Tang Xiaoru requested, while Tang Xiaoru wore the trendy bell-bottom pants that had made a comeback after more than half a century.

This type of pants has relatively high requirements on the wearer's body shape, because the waist is very high. If you have very short legs, it will be like your feet are stepping on the pants when you walk. Also, your legs must have a good shape. If you have bow legs, it will be even more unsightly.

Fortunately, Tang Xiaoru meets all its requirements.

Just ...

"I seem to have gained some weight again." Tang Xiaoru pulled the button of her trousers back one notch before getting off the bus, looking a little distressed. "My trouser waist is a little tight, wuwuwu."

Chen Qingrong smiled and said, "You're not fat. I just like your big thighs. They feel so good."

As he spoke, he patted Tang Xiaoru's thighs lightly twice.

I can feel the bouncy texture even through my pants.

Tang Xiaoru's face fell completely, "You lied to me! If I'm really not fat, why did you describe my legs as big meaty legs? You just think I'm fat!"

Chen Qingrong's mouth twitched, "Really, really, really, big meaty legs is a compliment. I can't say your legs are like bamboo poles, that seems to be a derogatory term, right?"

"Hmph, I won't bother with you for now, get out of the car."

Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him and got out of the car with him.

The decoration of this Go club is just like a fucking chess and card room. When you go in, you can see some people sitting on the first floor playing Go, and they seem to be concentrating very hard.

As the saying goes, a true gentleman watches chess without saying a word.

The game of Go is relatively quiet. Even if there are people watching the game around, almost no one talks.

The main reason is that these people have good quality.

Why don’t you try it in any park?
After asking the waiter, he took them to the third floor, which was a private room and required a VIP black card to come up.

At this moment, there was only a chess table in the private room, and only two people were playing chess.

One male and one female.

The man was in his sixties, dressed all in black, with a body that was neither fat nor thin, and looked quite handsome.

Chen Qingrong and the others had already seen photos of Boss Xuanyuan and recognized him as soon as they saw him in person.

As for the one who was playing chess with Boss Xuanyuan, she was a woman in her early thirties, with a high ponytail, neatly dressed, and simple and elegant makeup. Her brows were furrowed from time to time, and she seemed a little confused and a little overwhelmed.

There were eight people sitting cross-legged around them watching the game. The whole place was quiet.

Tang Xiaoru took Chen Qingrong over there.

Boss Xuanyuan heard footsteps, looked up, and then laughed, "You two are Mr. Tang and Mr. Chen from Chen Tangguan Design Co., Ltd., right? I have seen your photos from Old Xie, and you two are indeed a perfect match."

"Mr. Xuanyuan, you're too polite. I'm Tang Xiaoru and this is my husband Chen Qingrong. I'm sorry to interrupt your chess game." Tang Xiaoru said politely.

Boss Xuanyuan smiled and pointed at the cushions in front of the two of them, "It doesn't matter, this round is almost over anyway, please take a seat."

"Ok."

The two of them sat down obediently.

Boss Xuanyuan pointed at the woman across from him and said, "Let me introduce you. This is Zhu Lan, the CEO of BR Company. These people are all Zhu's subordinates."

Tang Xiaoru narrowed her eyes slightly, and then took the initiative to say to Zhu Lan, "Hello, Mr. Zhu, I have heard a lot about you."

"Hello."

It seemed that Zhu Lan did not take a small figure like Tang Xiaoru seriously at all. After saying hello, he went on to play chess with peace of mind.

Soon, she was defeated.

"Mr. Xuanyuan, I am no match for you. I admit defeat. I overestimated myself and actually wanted to challenge you. Sigh." Zhu Lan shook his head and smiled bitterly, with a look of unsatisfied feeling and admiration on his face as he spoke.

Boss Xuanyuan smiled and said, "Boss Zhu, there's no need to underestimate yourself. You're already very capable, and I just won by luck."

He looked at Tang Xiaoru and the other person again, "Boss Tang and Boss Chen, would you like to play Go? Do you want to play a game?"

Tang Xiaoru thought to herself, how could I know this?

"Well... I'm sorry, we really haven't played Go before, so we can't play Go with you. It's a pity." She could only tell the truth, which was better than pretending to be rich. Boss Xuanyuan didn't show much disappointment, but just smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. It's normal."

"By the way, both of you want to discuss cooperation with me. Now that I have time, please tell me your proposals. I will choose the best one to cooperate with."

Tang Xiaoru was a little surprised by what Boss Xuanyuan said.

She had originally thought that discussing such a private matter as cooperation must be done in private, but she didn't expect that she would have to talk about it in front of Zhu Lan.

This is really a bit inconvenient to say.

Zhu Lan, on the other hand, looked very relaxed and said with a smile, "Then I'll go first. After all, I was the first one here. Let's follow the order of priority. Mr. Xuanyuan, I know what project you are taking on this time. I also know what this project represents. It's for our Magic City..."

She spoke a lot of empty words in one breath for about five minutes, during which she tied Boss Xuanyuan and the future development of the Magic City together and boasted a lot. After five minutes, she got to the point and talked about the plan she designed.

Finally, she said, "President Xuanyuan should understand that for a special project like this, it is definitely more reliable to cooperate with an established design company like BR. At least we can give you the dual guarantee of reputation and quality."

This is a subtle satire that Chen Qingrong and his men are unreliable.

Boss Xuanyuan didn't show much of a reaction, but glanced at Tang Xiaoru and the others, "Boss Tang, Boss Chen, it's your turn."

Tang Xiaoru smiled, "It is an honor for our company to have an old design company like BR to give us a hint. Admittedly, old design companies sound like a guarantee of quality and reputation, but up-and-coming companies are also in their prime, especially new and creative companies like ours. Boss Xuanyuan..."

What is the art of speaking?
You, Zhu Lan, have been mocking our company openly and secretly, saying that we are a newcomer and unreliable. So the first thing I, Tang Xiaoru, would do is to hit back at you, saying that your company is just a brick used to lure out this piece of jade like us.

We are newcomers, but we are more creative and energetic than you old guys.

Tang Xiaoru is an excellent lobbyist, which even Chen Qingrong has to admire. When he first joined Chenzhu, he regarded Tang Xiaoru as his idol.

As Tang Xiaoru continued her story, Zhu Lan and her subordinates' expressions turned grim.

"Not bad, not bad." After listening to Tang Xiaoru's words, Boss Xuanyuan smiled and clapped his hands. "Very good. Mr. Tang's design concept is indeed very novel. Of course, Mr. Zhu's design concept is also very good. I really can't make a decision for a while."

"How about this, give me some time to think about it, and I'll contact you when the time comes."

Tang Xiaoru smiled and said, "Okay, Boss Xuanyuan, take your time to think about it. We are not in a hurry."

Zhu Lan also pretended not to care and said, "Yes, you can think about it slowly. For such a large project, we must be extremely cautious. We are not in a hurry."

"Well, haha, I'll have someone bring some tea up. Their Longjing tea tastes pretty good."

About an hour later, the game ended.

When Tang Xiaoru and her friends arrived outside the Go Club, they just happened to hear Zhu Lan calling them.

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Tang, please stay."

The two looked back, and Tang Xiaoru asked with a smile, "Boss Zhu, is there anything else you want to teach me?"

Zhu Lan laughed and said meaningfully, "To be honest, I am also optimistic about your company. It has great development potential. So, I was thinking whether we could have an in-depth cooperation?"

Tang Xiaoru was stunned. "What do you mean?"

Zhu Lan smiled and said, "It's like this. Our company is considering finding an agent. If you are willing, Mr. Tang, you can become our agent. Then we can make money together and share the benefits together. The cake is best eaten together."

Changing the subject, he smiled again, "As for Boss Xuanyuan's project this time, I personally suggest that you withdraw from the competition. To be honest, our company is determined to win this project. I admire you two very much, and I don't want to fight with you two. Haha, it's better for everyone not to hurt the harmony."

Tang Xiaoru and the other two understood what Zhu Lan meant.

What she meant was to let them become agents of their company, and their company would give them some benefits, and then they would obediently withdraw from Boss Xuanyuan's project.

This is called giving a sweet gift first and then giving a slap in the face.

Tang Xiaoru's face turned cold, and she said seriously, "Boss Zhu, what you said is a bit of a bully. Frankly speaking, if you hadn't said that, we might not have such a strong desire to get this project. But you've pushed us so hard, and if we don't react, we won't be able to survive in Shanghai in the future."

Zhu Lan's smile also faded. "So, our talks have failed? Mr. Tang, have you really thought it through? I've done some background checks on you. If you fight us, you have no chance of winning."

"You've done more than just background checks on us. You've poached people from our company a long time ago, haven't you?" Chen Qingrong sneered twice. "Haha, besides, we need to take it out for a walk to see if we can beat it or not. We have to fight it once to know for sure, right?"

"Mr. Chen, there's no need to be so harsh."

"It was President Zhu who started with the sarcastic remarks. President Zhu is so beautiful, but when she speaks, I can't help but want to spit in your face. Isn't this another kind of charm of yours, President Zhu?"

Chen Qingrong's smile looked like he deserved a beating.

Zhu Lan snorted heavily, and without saying anything else, he waved his hand and left with his subordinates.

After they left, Chen Qingrong stopped smiling and looked at Tang Xiaoru, "It seems that we have completely torn our faces with BR. We are going to start fighting next."

Tang Xiaoru hummed, put her right hand directly into Chen Qingrong's pocket, and said casually, "Fight if you want. A company needs to grow in competition. Before, someone as powerful as Bai Yunfeng couldn't crush us. I don't believe that Zhu Lan has that ability."

After a pause, Tang Xiaoru was a little dissatisfied again, "And why did you praise her for being beautiful just now? Humph, is she prettier than me?"

Chen Qingrong's mouth twitched, and he said speechlessly, "Why are you so jealous? Isn't the point of my sentence in the second half?"

"I don't care. Anyway, I just heard you praise her for being beautiful."

"That's just a rhetorical device. She's not pretty at all. Look at her bow legs. She walks like a carrot that has turned into a spirit. She's not pretty at all."

"Hey, boy, how can you point fingers at a girl's figure behind her back? I despise you." Tang Xiaoru made a contemptuous gesture with disgust.

Chen Qingrong, "???"

Oh shit.

City women are really too cunning, the countryside is more suitable for me!
They went home at night and did something naughty, and then fell asleep in each other's arms.

After getting up the next day, Tang Xiaoru first gave Chen Qingrong some Chinese medicine, and then went with him to see the property.

She has always been very decisive and if she says she wants to see a house, she has to see it.

However, before going to see the house, they first went to find Yang Bingbing and asked the couple to go together.

Yan Mo basically doesn't go to the clinic now. He stays by Yang Bingbing's side and serves her 24 hours a day. Even when he goes out, he carries that extra-large bag, which contains a folding stool for Yang Bingbing to sit down and rest at any time, as well as Yang Bingbing's favorite fruits and other things.

Chen Qingrong thought that it was fortunate that Yan Mo had served in the army. If he was a pure amateur, he would not be able to withstand such a torture.

They first went to a high-end sales office, but didn't find what they liked.

After changing two properties in succession, I finally found a pretty good one.

"Xiaoru, look, there is an international school and a large shopping mall nearby, which quite meets my standards. What do you think?" Yang Bingbing, wearing sunglasses and a mask, asked Tang Xiaoru while pulling her hand.

She was somewhat famous and didn't want to be recognized, otherwise, she would have hidden the fact of her pregnancy in vain.

Tang Xiaoru walked around the property carefully before saying, "The location is good, but the sales lady just said that the high-rise buildings are basically sold out, and the remaining ones are all below seven floors. I don't want to buy a house that is too short."

Yang Bingbing chuckled and said, "I think it's okay. I don't have too many requirements on which floor it is, as long as the overall location is suitable. By the way, there is also a Shengshi Real Estate nearby, why don't we go there and take a look?"

"If you can't find a satisfactory one here, we can go over there. If you can find a satisfactory one, we can live close to each other and it will be convenient for the children to visit us in the future."

"Row."

Yang Bingbing asked Yan Mo to stay and go with the sales lady to see the model house, while she accompanied Chen Qingrong and the others to go to Shengshi Real Estate.

After arriving at the sales office, the sales lady in black stockings began to entertain them.

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded, "Brother Erhu? Sister-in-law? Why are you here?"

Chen Qingrong looked in the direction of the voice and said, "Fuck, Qingyun, why are you here?"

Liang Qingyun waved his hand to let the sales lady leave. He walked over quickly and said with a smile, "This is my house. Do you want to buy a house?"

"Your building?" Tang Xiaoru was stunned. "This place is not big."

"Oh, that's right. Shengshi also belongs to our family, but it's not as well-known as Haoda. Who is this?" He explained while looking at Yang Bingbing, who was covered tightly, with some curiosity.

Yang Bingbing said softly, "It's me, Mr. Liang, keep a low profile and don't let anyone else know."

Liang Qingyun immediately understood, "Ah, oh, I'm low-key, I'm low-key."

He quickly asked Chen Qingrong and the others, "Brother Erhu, are you and your sister-in-law going to buy a house? If you do, you should let me know in advance so that I can reserve the best place for you. Why are you so unkind?"

Chen Qingrong smiled helplessly, "I don't want to trouble you. Your sister-in-law and I are just looking around. We may not buy anything."

Liang Qingyun chuckled, "You and sister-in-law are the matchmakers between Xiaoyuan and me. It's no problem. I'm here. I'll serve you personally today. How big do you want it to be?"

Originally, Chen Qingrong didn't want to get involved with Liang Qingyun's family real estate, and he didn't want to owe this favor, but since he had encountered Liang Qingyun, it was really unavoidable. After the two of them discussed it, they decided to take a look at the house first.

According to their request, Liang Qingyun found a suitable model house for them and took them in to have a look. He also generously said that if Chen Qingrong and the others wanted it, he would sell it at the lowest price. After all, he knew that if he gave it away directly, Chen Qingrong and the others would definitely not want it.

Chen Qingrong and the others didn’t say yes, they just said they would think about it again, after all, buying a house is a big deal.

We waited until noon and called Yan Mo to have lunch together in the staff restaurant on the second floor of the sales office.

After finishing their meal, they left.

When they got back to the car, Yang Bingbing said to Tang Xiaoru, "Xiaoru, I think the second house we saw in Shengshi today is pretty good. Liang Qingyun is willing to sell it to you at the lowest price. Don't feel embarrassed. It's stupid not to take advantage of a good deal. The main reason is that it's closer to the house I like."

Tang Xiaoru turned around and asked her, "Are you really going to buy that set?"

Yang Bingbing and Yan Mo did not drive, but took Chen Qingrong's car.

The couple sat in the back, Chen Qingrong sat in the passenger seat, and Tang Xiaoru served as the driver.

In fact, Yang Bingbing should have sat in the front passenger seat so that she could chat with her best friend, but her belly was big now and it was not suitable for her to wear a seat belt, so she was simply asked to sit in the back.

Yang Bingbing shrugged. "I think that set is good. I am a little tempted. Lao Yan, what do you think?"

Yan Mo said openly, "As long as you like it, I have no objection. I bought it mainly to make you and our baby live happily."

Yang Bingbing curled her lips and snorted, "You make it seem like I don't give you any status in the family at all. I'm obviously very democratic and open-minded, okay?"

Yan Moxin said as long as you are happy.

After sending Yang Bingbing and her husband home, Tang Xiaoru and her friends went to their parents' house.

Buying a house is such a big thing, Tang Xiaoru wants to discuss it with her parents.

"You two should buy a bigger house. The one you live in now is indeed a bit small. It is only suitable for living in during the honeymoon period. Once you have children, it will not be enough." Lin Yue agreed with what they said.

Tang Chengshan was even more direct, "Which house do you like? How much do you want? Is 10 million enough?"

Tang Xiaoru shook her head. "I'm not here to ask you for money. I'm just here to ask for your opinions. If you really want to buy a house, Chen Qingrong and I can definitely afford the down payment now."

"You want to take out a loan to buy a house?" Tang Chengshan frowned. "It's not cost-effective. The interest rate is high. Besides, your mother and I have the money to pay for the house in full. Why would you need a loan?"

Lin Yue also said, "Yes, just give it all at once, and you will pay for the decoration yourself, so that you won't have any sense of participation at all."

Tang Xiaoru said helplessly, "Mom and Dad, you really don't have to pay it all at once. Didn't you see what is said online? Buying a house with a loan is more suitable than paying it off all at once. Besides, Chen Qingrong and I are still in the waiting stage. If we really find a particularly suitable house and the loan is relatively cost-effective, we can ask you to borrow some money and buy it all at once."

Tang Chengshan curled his lips, "You are the only little girl who has so many tricks up her sleeve. No matter how much money your mother and I have, isn't it all left for you? I really don't know why you are being so polite."

Tang Xiaoru chuckled and didn't respond.

After staying at my parents' house for an afternoon, the couple left again.

Before leaving, Tang Chengshan took Chen Qingrong to the study and handed him a bank card.

"Dad, I can't take this money."

Chen Qingrong didn’t know how much money was in it, so he just waved his hand to refuse.

Tang Chengshan rolled his eyes at him and said, "Listen to me first. Do you remember when I told you to buy futures with me in March? This is the profit from your money, a total of 500,000 yuan. You can use it as your personal money."

"Five hundred thousand?" Chen Qingrong was shocked. "Dad, I remember I only gave you fifty thousand yuan, right? It's ten times more?"

Tang Chengshan said with a smile, "Yes, it has increased tenfold, but the market is not very good now, so I stopped all of them. Don't invest in things on the Internet randomly. I will tell you if there are any that are worth investing in, and you can just invest with me."

Chen Qingrong then took the card back with a smile, "Thank you, Dad. Don't worry, I will definitely give this money to Xiaoru and let her spend it all."

Tang Chengshan rolled his eyes. "When we're talking in private, can you please stop pretending? It's not a big deal that you've kept your private money secret from Xiaoru. I've also kept some private money secret from Xiaoru's mother. Remember, Xiaochen, private money is a man's bottom line and dignity, you have to hide it well."

Chen Qingrong was deeply moved. "Dad, you are really closer to me than my real dad. My real dad didn't teach me how to hide my private money, but you are willing to teach me the real skills."

"Hahaha." Tang Chengshan laughed and made a joke, "Old Chen didn't teach you this skill. It's very likely that he can't save any private money. He's too honest. Hahaha. Okay, you can go back with Xiaoru. Remember, don't say anything nonsense."

"Don't worry, I won't say anything."

"Uh-huh."

After Chen Qingrong said goodbye to Tang Chengshan, he also said goodbye to Lin Yue, and then left with Tang Xiaoru.

As soon as they left the villa, Tang Xiaoru started to ask, "What did my dad talk to you about again? Why do you two sneak into the study to chat every once in a while?"

Chen Qingrong said dissatisfiedly, "How can you talk like that? What do you mean by sneaky? This is man talk time, be serious, please respect us."

Tang Xiaoru curled her lips in disdain, "Okay, okay, respect, I respect you, let's not talk about this anymore, let's go home first, I want to calculate how much money we need to prepare if we want to buy the house we saw at Shanda today."

"You really like it."

"Why, you don't like that?"

"It's not that I don't like it, it's just that it didn't meet my expectations." Chen Qingrong heard his cell phone ringing while he was talking, so he took out his phone and checked the caller ID. "It's my mom calling."

"Hey, Mom, what's going on at home?"

"Qingrong, you have to come back. The village is going to elect a village chief, and you have to come back to vote."

"Voting for the village chief?" Chen Qingrong was stunned. "When did this start? Didn't everyone agree that Uncle Lun would be the village chief? Why are they starting a voting system now?"
