First spoiled, then love

Chapter 515 That depends on where you want to kiss me (11000)

Chen Qingrong immediately revealed an ambiguous smile, and Tang Xiaoru immediately knew what was going on when she saw his smile.

"Yeah, it's just what you think." Ni Shengnan moved his mouth speechlessly. "What made me speechless was that he explained to me at the time. He said that he had good calcium, but he also had feelings for women. This is a normal physiological phenomenon, and asked me not to think too much."

"You're just a three-year-old kid." Chen Qingrong saw through everything and hit the nail on the head, "Let me tell you this, Sister Shengnan, this guy is definitely not a good guy. If you continue to get along with him, he will take advantage of you and trick you into bed with him sooner or later."

Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him and said, "Be careful with your words."

Chen Qingrong spread his hands and said, "I have been very careful with my choice of words, and I am telling the truth. If Sister Shengnan hadn't thought of this, she wouldn't have bothered to ask us out for a drink."

Ni Shengnan smiled bitterly, "Brother Chen is right. I did think of this, so I was speechless and upset. I thought I could find a like-minded comrade to put off the marriage urging issue, but I didn't expect it to be so disgusting. He succeeded in making me hate men again."

Tang Xiaoru patted her hand in a comforting manner, "Don't be upset, what are you going to do now? Are you still in contact with that guy?"

Ni Shengnan shook his head decisively, "How could I possibly contact him again? I've already told him clearly not to contact him again, and I've also blocked him."

"What if your parents urge you again?"

"Just urge me. If I get too anxious, I'll just bump my head against Cheng Cheng's tombstone and die. I'll just go down and accompany him."

"Don't say such angry words." Tang Xiaoru was helpless. "Isn't Sun Cheng's greatest wish before his death that you can live well? You must not do anything stupid!"

Ni Shengnan laughed at himself, "I understand. I won't do anything stupid. In fact, if I wanted to do something stupid, I would have done it right after Cheng Cheng passed away. I wouldn't have put it off until today. I always feel like I want to see him again, but I'm afraid to see him. What if I go down and he doesn't recognize me?"

"It's also possible that you won't be able to find him." Chen Qingrong teased, "Even if you die and go down there, you're not on the same level as him. After all, Old Sun is definitely going to the Eighteenth Level of Hell, and you won't be sent there at all, so how can you possibly find him?"

Ni Shengnan rolled his eyes at him and said, "How can you curse your good brother like this?"

"I know him too well."

Chen Qingrong took a sip of beer and looked out the window with deep eyes.

Tang Xiaoru gently poked his arm with her hand, "Hey, what are you looking at? Is there a pretty girl or a handsome guy on the street outside?"

Chen Qingrong asked back, "Don't you think that when I look out the window like this, my profile looks a bit melancholy like Takeshi Kaneshiro?"

Tang Xiaoru's mouth twitched, and she said weakly, "Hubby, although a lover's eyes see beauty in everything, I really can't lie against my conscience. Please forgive me, okay?"

Chen Qingrong, "..."

Grass!
We drank until around eight o'clock, and people started to come into the bar one after another, including the resident singer.

Most of the resident singers in this kind of bar sing folk songs such as "Miss Dong".

Chen Qingrong watched the resident singer singing and felt a little eager to try it out.

Tang Xiaoru also noticed that he seemed very restless, so she asked him, "What's wrong with you? Why do you seem so restless?"

Chen Qingrong hesitated for a moment and told her, "I was wondering, if I went up to sing a song for you now, would you feel embarrassed?"

Tang Xiaoru blushed and said angrily, "Nonsense! Of course I feel embarrassed. You are an old married couple, why are you still doing that? I think you have watched too many idol dramas."

"I just want to show my affection."

knock knock.

Ni Shengnan knocked on the table in dissatisfaction, "Hey, Brother Chen, you are going too far, aren't you? I'm still in emo, why are you just showing off your affection and not caring about my feelings?"

Chen Qingrong pretended to be surprised, "You are still here? I'm sorry, Sister Shengnan, I only had Xiaoru in my eyes, and I really didn't notice that you were still here."

"Fuck!" Ni Shengnan directly made an international friendly gesture.

She drank a lot tonight, and seeing that it was almost time to drink, Tang Xiaoru asked Chen Qingrong to pay the bill.

"Don't drink, Shengnan. Let's take you home. Did you drive here or take a taxi?" Tang Xiaoru asked, and before she could answer, she added, "No, even if you drove here, you can only take my husband's car now. You two have been drinking, so let me drive."

She knew she was going to drive tonight, so she didn't drink any alcohol, but just drank plum juice.

But she ate a lot of fruit, especially that damn cantaloupe, and her belly is a little bloated now.

"I came by taxi."

After Ni Shengnan said this, he burped.

"That's just right."

After Chen Qingrong came back after paying the bill, Tang Xiaoru and Chen Qingrong carried Ni Shengnan to the car, and then drove her back to the community where she lived.

Tang Xiaoru had been to this community once before, so she knew it.

After parking the car, they took the elevator to take Ni Shengnan to the eleventh floor. As they got out of the elevator, they saw a man pacing anxiously in front of Ni Shengnan's door, seemingly waiting for something.

Chen Qingrong shouted directly, "Hey, what do you do?"

The man turned around when he heard the sound. When he saw them holding Ni Shengnan, he immediately showed a look of surprise, "Shengnan! Why is she so drunk? Who are you?"

Ni Shengnan was also somewhat sober at this time. He looked up and immediately revealed a look of disgust. "Zhou Meng, what are you doing in my house? I don't want to see you, please leave!"

"Shengnan, I..."

"So you are the calcium that sister Shengnan was talking about." Chen Qingrong sneered and continued to say to Tang Xiaoru, "Wife, help Shengnan back home first. I will come and talk to him."

"it is good."

"Shengnan, I want to tell you something..."

"stop!"

Chen Qingrong directly blocked Zhou Meng's way, looked back at Tang Xiaoru and closed the door, then put his arm down.

"Brother, are you going to break into someone's house so late at night? Are you planning on going to the police station?"

"I didn't mean that. I just have something to explain to Shengnan. Also, who are you?"

"We are her friends." Chen Qingrong said coldly, "Also, she just said that she doesn't want to see you. Please don't harass Shengnan anymore."

Zhou Meng still didn't give up, "But she promised to be my girlfriend."

Chen Qingrong was speechless, "You are acting and you really take it seriously? Aren't you dealing with each other's parents? You really think she wants to date you? Besides, you should know what embarrassing things you did last night. The girl hates you, so don't come up to her like a sticky candy, okay?"

"Let's go. I don't want to beat a woman so late at night."

"Uh, you want to fight Sheng Nan?"

"Why would I hit her? The woman I'm talking about is you." Chen Qingrong stared at him sarcastically, "Oh, to be precise, you're not a woman. You're obviously a man, but you have feelings for women. How do you say that in medicine? Oh, a double-surname relationship. You remind me of a man I knew before. He has the same personality as you. I don't know whether to call you brother or sister."

"Anyway, please leave, ok?"

Zhou Meng gritted his teeth, glared at him resentfully, then turned around and pressed the elevator button.

Chen Qingrong waited until the elevator went down, and then waited for about five minutes, but still didn't see the elevator coming up, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

He walked to Ni Shengnan's door and knocked, and Tang Xiaoru quickly opened the door.

"You didn't fight with Zhou Meng just now, did you?"

As soon as Tang Xiaoru saw him, she quickly touched his face and then his chest muscles which were not very hard now.

Chen Qingrong was amused. "Are you checking to see if I'm injured or are you just being naughty? If there's anything else you want to touch, just tell me and I'll satisfy you all at once."

"Go to hell." Tang Xiaoru blushed and spat, then pulled him in again and closed the door. "Shengnan has fallen asleep on the bed. I just took off her shoes and pants. Have a drink of water and let's go downstairs. It's not good for us to stay here while she's sleeping."

"My wife is so considerate of me that she let me drink some water, unlike Ni Shengnan who doesn't even know how to entertain guests."

"Nonsense, I'm drunk and I'm not going to entertain you."

Tang Xiaoru was speechless, and then went to get Chen Qingrong a glass of boiled water.

After taking a sip, Chen Qingrong smacked his lips. "Tsk, how come you are so familiar with her house? Have you been here many times before?"

Tang Xiaoru shook her head. "No, it's just that when Sun Cheng just passed away, she was quite vulnerable, so I came to her house to chat with her. It seems that I only came once or twice."

"Souga."

After drinking the water, Chen Qingrong left Ni Shengnan's house with Tang Xiaoru.

It was still early, so they were not in a hurry to go back. Instead, they went to Xiaoru's parents' home.

Lin Yue was pruning her roses in the yard. She was a little surprised to see them coming. "Hey, why are you two here so late? At least give us a heads up. Your dad and I just had dinner."

Tang Xiaoru smiled and said, "We must have eaten before we came here. Mom, your flowers are blooming better and better, as beautiful as me."

"I've never seen anyone brag so much." Lin Yue rolled her eyes and asked, "What's the matter with you two?"

Tang Xiaoru said calmly, "I came to ask you two for money to buy a house. I have decided to buy the house I saw in Shanda before."

Chen Qingrong looked at her in some surprise.

Because Tang Xiaoru didn't tell him about this on the way here, he had no idea that Tang Xiaoru brought him here late at night to ask her parents for money to buy a house.

He thought to himself, wasn’t Xiaoru still very conflicted before?
Why did you suddenly make up your mind now?

Lin Yue was not too surprised, she just said, "Your dad is watching TV in the living room, go talk to him yourself."

"it is good."

"Xiao Ru, go ahead. I'll help mom here."

Chen Qingrong said something.

He felt that asking Tang Chengshan for money was a bit too embarrassing. Although he was the son-in-law of the Tang family and his father-in-law and mother-in-law treated him like their own son, he was still an outsider. He always felt that he would not be able to adapt to such occasions where people were asked for money.

So I offered to stay.

Tang Xiaoru understood him, and after a nod, she went to find her father.

Forty minutes later, the couple finally left the Tang family.

"How much money did you ask your father for?" Chen Qingrong asked as soon as he fastened his seat belt.

Tang Xiaoru kept it a secret, "I won't tell you the exact number, but it's definitely enough to buy the house in full."

Chen Qingrong suddenly realized.

That's tens of thousands.

It’s nice to have a rich dad.

If he asked his parents for tens of thousands of dollars, they wouldn't be able to raise the money even if they sold all their homestead.

He was too embarrassed to open his mouth.

Tang Xiaoru added, "Contact Liang Qingyun this Friday and tell him that we plan to buy the house we saw before. He wants to give us a discount, so let's take it."

Chen Qingrong raised his eyebrows. "Didn't you say before, like me, that you were embarrassed to ask for a discount and embarrassed to accept this favor?"

Tang Xiaoru changed her tone, "Before was before, now is now. I now feel that if I don't take advantage of an opportunity, I'd be a jerk."

Chen Qingrong burst out laughing.

I don't know what's wrong with her.

"Then why are you buying a house so quickly? Without comparing prices?"

"I don't want to compare anymore." Tang Xiaoru shook her head and added, "House prices are rising faster and faster every day. Buy early and enjoy the benefits early. Besides, you may not get such a discount if you buy in other places."

"And by next month at the latest, Bingbing and her friends can start renovating their new home. I have almost finished the design drawings, so we can't be too slow."

Chen Qingrong was speechless. "You really want to catch up with her, so why don't you chase her away from giving birth to a child?"

Tang Xiaoru snorted twice, "I do want to, but having a child is not something I can do alone. It's not like I can get pregnant tomorrow just by saying so. It still depends on you."

"There's nothing wrong with my body. You're still recovering. You can have a baby during the Chinese New Year."

Chen Qingrong gave the death order.

Tang Xiaoru did not object, "Okay, let's try to give our parents good news on New Year's Eve."

Chen Qingrong thought of another thing, "By the way, ask your parents for the money to buy the house, and I will ask them to pay for part of the decoration money."

Tang Xiaoru was unhappy. "You are crazy. It's not easy for your parents to earn money. They don't make money as quickly as my dad. Why do you want them to pay for the decoration? Can't our savings afford a house?"

Chen Qingrong said helplessly, "I am glad that you care about my parents, but please listen to me first. I know them. If they knew that their son and daughter-in-law bought a house and they could not help at all, they would definitely feel frustrated."

"I read a passage online before, which said that true filial piety does not mean that your parents are stingy, but that you should proactively ask for their help when you need it. This will make them feel needed, and they will even be more motivated to make money."

"What a mess! Isn't this just pure reliance on parents?"

"Not really." Chen Qingrong pouted. "After we raise our child, if he can handle everything on his own and doesn't need an old father like me, I will feel frustrated and feel that I am old and useless."

"In fact, as long as you don't just suck blood from your parents, it's okay to ask for it appropriately."

Tang Xiaoru opened her mouth and thought for a moment before saying, "Okay, you can ask your parents to help, but don't let them pay too much, okay?"

Chen Qingrong nodded, "Don't worry about this, I know what I'm doing. Besides, my parents don't have that much money to spend."

"That's good."

After returning home, Chen Qingrong called his mother on video and told his parents about the incident.

Wang Xiu'e was very happy. "Okay, okay, this is a good thing. In fact, when I went to your little home before, I also felt that your little home was a little small. When we have children in the future, we will definitely need a bigger house. The better."

"Since your parents paid for the house, Xiaoru, let us pay for the renovation. We have to do something for your little family and our grandchildren."

Chen Qingrong did not object, and said, "For the decoration, we plan to go for a minimalist style, which won't cost too much. Mom, if you and Dad really want to pay, just give 50,000 or 100,000 yuan."

Wang Xiu'e glared at him. "Although I am not very educated, I have been eating for many more years than you. Can you fool me with this? Who can decorate their house with only 50,000 or 100,000 yuan? What's more, your house is in Shanghai. It can't be decorated without hundreds of thousands of yuan."

"We still have more than 200,000 yuan in compensation for the land occupation. We will take a little bit from our savings and make up 300,000 yuan. We will use this money to help you with the renovation. If it's more, we can't take it out."

Old Chen agreed, "Your mother is right. Fifty or one hundred thousand yuan is not enough to renovate a house."

"Too much, too much, Mom and Dad, you don't have to give so much." Tang Xiaoru waved her hands distressedly before Chen Qingrong could say anything, "We are not in a hurry to move into the new house, so let's just simply decorate it first."

Wang Xiu'e said seriously, "Xiao Ru, we know you are a good child and feel sorry for us because it is not easy to make money. However, we should not save money. That house is where your family of three or even four will live in the future. How can we simply decorate it?"

"Don't worry, your father and I still have savings. We won't be out of money after paying you three hundred thousand. Don't worry."

"This……"

After some earnest persuasion, Tang Xiaoru had no choice but to "accept" this matter.

After the video call ended, Tang Xiaoru said to Chen Qingrong, "If my parents really give us 300,000 yuan, we will take out 100,000 yuan at most, and I will give the remaining 200,000 yuan to my father to help invest. When the money makes money, we will return it to my parents. We can't spend all their hard-earned money."

Chen Qingrong joked, "You feel comfortable spending your dad's money, but why do you refuse to spend my parents' money? If your dad knew about this, he would be so upset because of your betrayal."

Tang Xiaoru snorted, "It's only natural to spend his money. He's so rich. If your parents were as rich as my dad, I promise I wouldn't say anything."

Chen Qingrong laughed at himself, "That will have to wait until next life."

But this is how it was finally settled.

Before going to bed at night, Chen Qingrong posted the novel on the website. The couple didn't eat seriously that night, so Chen Qingrong specially made two poached eggs and cooked a handful of noodles.

Tang Xiaoru was so full that she started to burp.

"It's a pity there are no tomatoes. It would taste better if there were tomatoes in it." Tang Xiaoru said with some regret.

Chen Qingrong smiled helplessly, "I just wanted to make noodles on a whim. It's normal that you forgot to buy them. If you still want to eat, I'll go to the supermarket to buy some tomatoes after get off work tomorrow. I'll make you a good one then."

Tang Xiaoru pouted, "It depends on whether I still want to eat it when the time comes. I only get excited for a short time, and I may not want to eat it every time."

"Row."

The night passed like this.

After arriving at the company the next day, Tang Xiaoru received good news from Boss Xuanyuan, saying that the review of the relevant department had been passed, but he would invite the leaders of the relevant departments to dinner in the evening, and he hoped that Tang Xiaoru and others could also be present.

Tang Xiaoru naturally agreed immediately.

As for Chen Qingrong, after he arrived at his workstation, he called Liang Qingyun and told him about his plan to buy a house.

Liang Qingyun laughed loudly, "Haha, I knew that you and your wife would definitely like that house, brother Erhu. I've been keeping it for you. OK, let's meet at the sales office tomorrow afternoon. Let me know when you leave, and I'll try to wait for you there first." Chen Qingrong hummed, "Okay, that's it for now."

"Wait a minute, Brother Erhu." Liang Qingyun called out again, and asked tentatively, "Xiaoyuan hasn't complained to you about me recently, has she?"

Chen Qingrong was very puzzled. "No, why would she complain to me about you for no reason? What did you do that deserves her to complain?"

Liang Qingyun laughed twice and said awkwardly, "Ha, we are all brothers. Since you asked, I won't hide it from you. Since three days ago, Xiaoyuan and I have tried several times, but every time, I failed."

Chen Qingrong was stunned, "What didn't work?"

"It's when I do bad things. I, I don't, cough."

"Oh~" Chen Qingrong finally reacted, and subconsciously glanced at Xiaoyuan who was working on the computer, and teased, "Have you been under too much pressure recently? Or do you and Xiaoyuan not know how to control yourself? If you do things too much, this kind of situation will happen. You better take it easy."

When it comes to doing bad things, women are naturally more likely to take advantage than men.

Men have to enter a long period of Sage Time to slow down the cooldown every time they finish, but women don’t need to. Unless they are killed by you, they have infinite cooldown and infinite mana recovery.

Moreover, the more times that kind of thing happens, the more damage the man will suffer, while on the contrary, the woman will be well nourished.

So if you see a couple on the street and the man looks listless while the woman has a rosy face, it basically means that the man is drained.

After all, whether it’s happiness or bliss, you have to let your woman experience the same, right?

Otherwise, why would others follow you so wholeheartedly?

Hearing Chen Qingrong's words, Liang Qingyun's laughter became even more awkward. "Ha, ha, maybe there is indeed a relationship in this regard, but now I am more worried that I might be Yang Wei. If that is the case, I am doomed."

"Although Xiaoyuan didn't laugh at me, but comforted me and told me not to have psychological pressure, but Erhu brother, you are also a man, you should understand that the more you hear your woman comforting you like this, the more uncomfortable you will feel as a man."

Chen Qingrong said with a smile, "Have you been to the hospital?"

Liang Qingyun said weakly, "I'm embarrassed to go to the hospital for this kind of problem. I always feel so ashamed."

Chen Qingrong was speechless. "Since you already know that you are ill, you should go see a doctor. Don't feel any psychological burden. Last year, I went to see a Chinese doctor with my wife because of kidney deficiency. If you are embarrassed to let Xiaoyuan accompany you, you can go by yourself. This is a big deal and you can't be careless."

Liang Qingyun was silent for a moment before he said, "Okay, I'll find time to go and see a doctor, but before that I have to wait a few days and try again with Xiaoyuan. If it still doesn't work, then I have to see a doctor."

"By the way, Brother Erhu, since Xiaoyuan didn't take the initiative to tell you about this, you don't have to mention it. I still have to have some shame."

"Don't worry. Even if Xiaoyuan treats me as her brother, she won't complain to me about you. She has more dignity than you do. Okay, hang up now."

"Oh, okay, see you tomorrow then."

"Ah."

The phone hangs up.

At this moment, the company's HR Lulu came over, bent over and whispered to Chen Qingrong, "Mr. Chen, I just received a resume online. Do you know who submitted it?"

Chen Qingrong glanced at her and said, "How come you've learned to keep people in suspense? Just say it directly."

Lulu pursed her lips and smiled, "Jason voted for it."

"Jason?" Chen Qingrong was stunned, then laughed angrily, "He actually has the nerve to send his resume to our company? That's interesting. You take his resume and ask him to come down for an interview. I don't believe he has the guts to come."

Lulu smiled and said, "I guess he made a mistake in applying. He probably won't apply to our company again. After all, he did such a bad thing before. Anyone with a little bit of brains knows how angry you are with him, Mr. Chen. How dare he come for an interview?"

"He better make the wrong throw, otherwise I'll have to give him a good beating with my fists."

Chen Qingrong hated Jason particularly, even more than he hated Vincent back then.

Frankly speaking, if Jason really dared to come to their company again, he would definitely beat him up.

To deal with that kind of bastard, you have to beat him hard with your fists.

They were busy until noon, then Chen Qingrong and Tang Xiaoru went out to eat.

While eating, Tang Xiaoru received a call from Ren Furong.

After hanging up the phone, she smiled and said to Chen Qingrong, "Ren Furong called me to tell me about Bai Yunfeng and his son. She said she got the news from the court that Bai Yunfeng's father was sentenced to seventeen years in prison, and Bai Yunfeng was also sentenced to twelve years. Now the two of them will have a good reunion in prison."

Chen Qingrong's eyes lit up, "Is the news reliable?"

Tang Xiaoru nodded, "Absolutely reliable. Currently, only Liu Qianqian's case has not been tried yet. I hope that this murderous devil will not be sentenced lighter than Bai Yunfeng and his son."

Chen Qingrong said, "Liu Qianqian's case is still a long time ago. She was charged with intentional homicide, and the criminal case process is very long. The case of Bai Yunfeng and his son was tried so quickly, mainly because Bai Yunfeng's father's identity was relatively special, and special cases were handled specially. If he didn't have that identity, I don't think it would have been settled so quickly."

"Anyway, it's good news for us. How about it? Did Ren Furong cry happily on the phone?"

Tang Xiaoru shook her head gently. "No, she was very calm. I even heard some emotion in her voice."

Chen Qingrong was somewhat speechless, "Is she still in love with that beast Bai Yunfeng? If that's the case, then she really is the biggest love-brained person of this century."

"She definitely doesn't still love Bai Yunfeng. Maybe she just feels sentimental."

"Tsk."

Chen Qingrong didn't say anything else, just lowered his head and started eating.

This time he ordered chicken chop rice, which cost about 20 yuan per portion. The rice portion was sufficient, but the chicken chop was too small.

Overall, it is still not as affordable as Shaxian snacks.

After finishing her meal, Tang Xiaoru stood up to pay the bill.

At this time, Xiao Yuan sent a WeChat message to Chen Qingrong, "Brother Chen, Zhu Lan, the general manager of BR, is here. He said he wants to see you and your sister-in-law."

Chen Qingrong was stunned when he saw the message and quickly replied, "She came by herself?"

Xiaoyuan, "Yes, just by herself, no one else."

Chen Qingrong, "We'll go back right away."

"Who are you chatting with?"

Tang Xiaoru also came back at this time. Seeing Chen Qingrong typing so fast with one hand, she knew that he was chatting with someone on WeChat.

When it comes to typing on the mobile phone, Tang Xiaoru still admires Chen Qingrong very much.

She is from the Twenty-Six Keys School, and Chen Qingrong is from the Nine Keys School.

Chen Qingrong can type blindly with one hand without making any mistakes, but she can't.

However, Tang Xiaoru would often ridicule Chen Qingrong by saying "Only people with thick fingers would use nine-key typing." Otherwise, if it came down to typing speed alone, Chen Qingrong would beat her in seconds.

"It was Xiaoyuan who sent the message. She said Zhu Lan has come to our company." Chen Qingrong said as he stood up.

Tang Xiaoru was stunned. "Why did she come to our company?"

Chen Qingrong shook his head. "I don't know. Let's go back and take a look. When the enemy comes, the general will come. When the water comes, the earth will cover it. Let's find out her purpose first."

"okay."

Tang Xiaoru returned to the company with him.

After arriving at the company, Tang Xiaoru saw Zhu Lan sitting on a chair in a sky blue dress, wearing a pair of large sunglasses and an LV handbag on her legs.

The employees were busy with their own things and no one entertained her.

"Boss Zhu, why are you here? What's the matter?"

Tang Xiaoru walked over and started talking.

Zhu Lan stood up and said, "Can we go to your office to talk? There are too many people here and I don't want to talk."

Tang Xiaoru hesitated, "Sure, please."

She also winked at Chen Qingrong, asking him to follow.

The two women went in first, and Chen Qingrong followed behind and was responsible for closing the door.

"Please take a seat."

Tang Xiaoru sat back in her boss chair first, and then asked Zhu Lan to sit down.

After Zhu Lan sat down, he took off his sunglasses. Tang Xiaoru and the others immediately noticed that there was a bruise on Zhu Lan's right eye, and it was a very serious one.

No wonder she wears sunglasses. It turns out she doesn’t wear them to show off, but to cover up her injuries.

"Boss Tang, Boss Chen, you can relax your guard. I come here without any hostility this time. I can guarantee this with my life."

Zhu Lan said.

Chen Qingrong sat on the sofa and crossed his legs, saying sarcastically, "But your life is worthless to us."

Zhu Lan's mouth twitched, and she forced herself not to look at him. She just said to Tang Xiaoru, "Mr. Tang, I came here this time to invite you to attend his birthday on the 30th of this month on behalf of my adoptive father. Here is the invitation."

As she spoke, she took out a gold-plated blue invitation from her bag and placed it on Tang Xiaoru's desk.

Tang Xiaoru gently opened it and took a look, a little confused, "Why did President Du invite us to attend his birthday? It's not that we don't want to wish him a happy birthday, but we have never met President Du before, and this invitation is really beyond my expectation."

Zhu Lan shook his head in self-mockery and said with a wry smile, "I admit that what you said is true, Mr. Tang. My father invited you to his birthday because he actually wanted to give us all a chance to reconcile face to face."

"What I did before was not authentic. I apologize to you in person again. The injury on my eye was caused by my father hitting me with an ashtray. He is also very dissatisfied with what I did and the series of negative impacts I brought to BR."

"So, what he meant was that we could talk openly and honestly about his business this time. Even if we can't become partners in the future, we hope that we won't be hostile to each other anymore. That's why my father invited you."

Tang Xiaoru understood.

However, she still said carefully, "The previous incident has been put to rest. We said we would not care about it anymore. President Du still cares about this matter and wants to reconcile with us in person. We are really flattered."

Zhu Lan smiled, "My dad has always been such a sincere person. In his eyes, there is no distinction between the old and the young. As long as he likes someone, they are all his friends."

"So, Mr. Tang, you and Mr. Chen will be there, right?"

Tang Xiaoru didn't answer in a hurry, but tapped the table lightly while holding the invitation.

After nearly a minute of thinking, Tang Xiaoru said, "I can't guarantee it. After all, I don't know if we have other things to do that day. I can only say that if we are free that day, we will go."

Zhu Lan's eyebrows twitched slightly and she smiled unnaturally, "Okay, I've already sent you the invitations. Whether you have time to come depends on your schedule. I'll take my leave now."

"Walk slowly without sending."

Chen Qingrong said he didn't want to see him off, and he didn't even show any intention of getting up.

Zhu Lan carried her small bag and left first.

After Zhu Lan left, Chen Qingrong asked Tang Xiaoru, "Wife, what do you think? Do you think this is a Hongmen Banquet?"

Tang Xiaoru shook her head. "It's not a Hongmen Banquet. If Du Lanshan really wanted to get back at his adopted daughter, there's no need to choose his birthday. The older people are, the more sensitive they are to birthdays. No one would do something unpleasant on such an auspicious day."

"Do you think Du Lanshan is really so kind as to talk to us face to face? But what can we talk about with him? It's nothing more than listening to his polite words that no one would believe. Anyway, I personally don't want to go."

"I don't want to go either." Tang Xiaoru stuffed the invitation into the drawer. "If they call again, we'll find an excuse to get away with it. If they don't call, then we don't have to go."

Chen Qingrong grinned, "That's more like it, I thought you really wanted to flatter that Du guy."

Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes beautifully, "I don't have the hobby of flattering others. I'm not you."

Chen Qingrong was unhappy, "Look at what you said, I don't like stinky feet, your feet don't stink."

"Do I need to tell you this? Humph."

……

At around 1:00 p.m., Chen Qingrong and Tang Xiaoru went to see Director Xie.

This was mainly because Tang Xiaoru learned from Mr. Xie's granddaughter that Mr. Xie had some health problems. When she saw her at the company, she found that her complexion was indeed not as good as the last time they met.

Tang Xiaoru advised her, "Mr. Xie, if you are not feeling well, you should go to the hospital first, or take a few days off. It's not a good idea to keep holding on like this."

Chen Qingrong also said, "Yes, Mr. Xie, you are not eighteen years old now, you should still take care of your health."

Director Xie smiled helplessly, "It's okay, it's okay. It's just that the heart is not getting enough blood and there's something wrong with the blood pressure. The doctor also said it's not a big problem. I've reduced my workload now, but I can't let go completely."

"My useless son is simply incapable of carrying such a heavy burden. If I let go and hand over the company to him, he might even take away the power of the company."

After hearing this meaningful sentence, the young couple's eyes flickered.

There's a lot of information in here.

Tang Xiaoru asked tentatively, "Mr. Xie, is your company unstable?"

Director Xie had a gloomy face and laughed, "It has never been stable. It was better when I was younger and stronger. Now my body has deteriorated and my son can't take on the responsibility. I am really worried that if I collapse one day, what will happen to the empire I have worked so hard to build?"

She is now like the emperor of a feudal dynasty, sensing that her time is running out and worrying about who will be her successor.

She built up this company single-handedly, and she certainly doesn't want to hand over power to someone else.

At this point, she looked deeply at Chen Qingrong and the other two and sighed, "Alas, if only my son could have half of your abilities, I wouldn't have to worry so much."

They didn't know how to respond to this and could only smile awkwardly.

In the evening, the couple had dinner with Boss Xuanyuan and a senior leader from the relevant department.

The big boss's beer belly is almost as big as that of pregnant Yang Bingbing, and he has a mouthful of yellow teeth, making him look like a frequent smoker.

If it were just that, it would be fine, but the problem was that he kept looking at Tang Xiaoru with those lustful eyes, which made Chen Qingrong very unhappy.

To be honest, he almost couldn't help but throw a bottle at him.

After dinner, the big boss suggested inviting Tang Xiaoru and the others to go to KTV. Fortunately, Chen Qingrong was very supportive and pretended to be drunk. Tang Xiaoru took him away on the pretext of sending him off. The big boss could only go out to have fun with Boss Xuanyuan, feeling very dissatisfied.

After getting in the car, Tang Xiaoru asked him gently, "Are you angry?"

Chen Qingrong said with a cold face, "Well, that Park guy doesn't look like a good person. I think he shouldn't be called Park Feng. He should be called Park Changfan. Anyway, there aren't many decent people with the last name Park."

Tang Xiaoru said with a smile, "You can be angry, but you can't just attack me randomly. Okay, don't be angry. He didn't take advantage of me, did he? Besides, you have so many years of work experience. You have seen all kinds of people. Why do you get angry so easily?"

Chen Qingrong was still unhappy. "No matter how much I have seen, they are all other people. But you are different. You are my wife. When I think about that old idiot having feelings for you, I feel sick. It's better not to let me see him again."

Tang Xiaoru hugged him and coaxed him, "You won't see him again, don't worry, this time we are just accompanying Boss Xuanyuan to join the party, we don't need to find that Pu to do anything, we will definitely not see him again."

"Don't be angry, don't be angry. If I kiss you, will you stop being angry?"

"That depends on where you kiss me."

"rogue!"

Tang Xiaoru spat, and then said ambiguously, "I'll kiss you when we get home."

Chen Qingrong was relentless, "Where are you going to kiss me when we get home? If you don't tell me clearly, how can I know where you want to kiss me? Tell me first."

"I will not say."

"Tang Xiaoru..."

"Hey?"

Tang Xiaoru suddenly discovered something and looked outside with a surprised expression.

Chen Qingrong followed her gaze and saw two security guards in the restaurant dragging a drunk man onto the street.

"It seems to be Jason?" Tang Xiaoru's eyes were sharp.

Chen Qingrong immediately unbuckled his seat belt and said, "Go down and take a look."

After saying that, he opened the car door and got out.

Tang Xiaoru was startled and quickly got out of the car, "Chen Qingrong, don't hit anyone!"

Chen Qingrong was speechless. "I just went to take a look, not to hit him. Even if I really wanted to hit him, I would wait until he is sober. Taking advantage of someone in distress is not a manly thing to do."

As he spoke, he came to Jason, who was already drunk, with bruises all over his face. He lay on the ground, wriggling like a maggot.

"Hey, Jason, do you still recognize us?"

Chen Qingrong kicked him lightly, trying to wake him up.
