80s: The cold-faced tough guy was controlled by the beautiful woman

Chapter 352 Do you have a crush on her?
Knowing the approximate address, Li Yingtang said goodbye to the security guard.

I took out a map, far from the film studio, determined the direction of Qingshan Road, and rode my bike there.

Passing through the long street near Qingshan Road, I saw Ding Ying's figure coming towards me.

He walked side by side with Zhong Nana, chatting and laughing, while Zhu Youqing was nowhere to be seen beside her.

Li Yingtang hesitated whether to say hello.

Ding Ying spotted her, smiled, and waved to her.

Li Yingtang smiled in response and stepped forward to greet them: "Brother Ding, Miss Zhong, good morning."

Zhong Nana smiled and said, "Hello, do you live nearby?"

Li Yingtang denied it: "Just browsing around. Last time I said I'd give you a face mask, but I didn't ask for your address. Do you live here? Which apartment? I'll bring it to you this afternoon."

“Sure. I don’t live here. Youqing lives nearby, so you can give it to him. I come here often and it will come in handy.” Zhong Nana readily accepted the gift and told Li Yingtang the exact location.

"Okay." Li Yingtang wrote it down in her notebook.

Zhong Nana laughed and said, "Do you have a bad memory? You actually carry a notebook with you all the time."

Li Yingtang: "I'm usually quite busy with a lot of things to do, and I might forget if someone interrupts me."

"What is there for a woman like you to do?"

Li Yingtang didn't explain, just smiled, wrote down the address, and put away the paper and pen. "I won't disturb your shopping anymore, goodbye."

Ding Ying: "We weren't shopping; we were visiting relatives early in the morning and just happened to run into each other."

Li Yingtang said "Oh" and "Bye-bye~~" before riding away on her bicycle.

Zhong Nana watched them go, and once they were out of sight, she turned her gaze back and noticed Ding Ying watching as well. She chuckled and asked, "Do you have a crush on her?"

Ding Ying immediately shifted his gaze from the distance, looked directly at Zhong Nana, and said seriously, "Don't talk nonsense. She has a boyfriend."

Zhong Nana disagreed: "If you don't have a crush on her, why are you explaining it to her? If you do, so be it. There's nothing shameful about liking her. She's so beautiful, even I, a woman, like her. Zhu Youqing had a boyfriend at first, but they broke up and she's with me now. Besides, I think women are easier to pursue because they don't have the same sense of self-respect as men. Women love to hear sweet words. Say a few nice things, spend some money, and even the most aloof woman will fall for you."

Ding Ying wanted to laugh when he heard that.

Self-esteem doesn't discriminate between men and women.
He pondered for a moment and said, "I'll say something you might not like to hear, but if Li Yingtang really wanted to climb the social ladder, she would definitely be the one using sweet words. She wouldn't be like Zhu Youqing, who coldly accepts money even when offered it. He's a freeloader who can't distinguish between what's important and what's not."

"You're incompetent at chasing women, yet you can't stand to see me doing well?" Zhong Nana said with dissatisfaction.

Ding Ying: "." Can't I even give a reminder?

Fortunately, his sister doesn't do that.

"I need to explain that Yingtang is not the aloof woman you think you can win over by spending more money. You should be able to tell from her conversation that she comes from a good family. In addition, she owns a processing plant with about forty employees and two shops."

Zhong Nana exclaimed in surprise, "That's nonsense! How old is she?"

"Didn't she say she'd bring you a face mask this afternoon? You should ask her yourself."

"."

Li Yingtang arrived at Qingshan Road, eager to find out where Qi Chong lived.

Using Qi Chong's portrait, they spent a morning learning Qi Chong's detailed address.

She knocked twice on the door of the small, detached courtyard house and then retreated to a nearby alley.

Shortly after.

The door opened, and Zhou Shu poked half his body out to look around: "Which idiot is this? A lunatic!"

She went back.

After thinking it over, Li Yingtang decided to come back again that evening.

She first went back to the store to get the face masks and perfume, and then delivered them to Zhong Nana's residence.

The place Qi Chong arranged for Zhou Shu was only two streets away.

With its Western-style exterior design combined with Chinese courtyards and decorations, it is likely a mansion left over from the Republican era.

Given people's current standard of living, it's impossible for individuals to own a house like this.

She guessed that the house was allocated by the government to Zhong Nana's parents or grandparents. They had other places to live, so they couldn't stay here and Zhong Nana used it to support her gigolo.

She stepped forward, picked up the brass ring on the door, and tapped it three times.

A moment later, Zhong Nana opened the door.

"You've arrived, please come in." Li Yingtang smiled slightly: "Yes."

Zhong Nana led Li Yingtang into the house and took a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet in the entryway for her: "Ding Ying said you own a factory and two stores?"

Li Yingtang handed the bag containing the face masks to the other person, saying as she changed her shoes, "That's not entirely accurate; the factory doesn't belong to me alone."

"Partnering with someone? You haven't been scammed, have you?"

Li Yingtang: "Do I look like a stupid person?"

Zhong Nana laughed and said, "I'm a little surprised. You don't look very old, yet you own a factory. Did your parents give you the money?"

"loan."

"A loan?" Zhong Nana found it intriguing.

While sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper, Zhu Youqing looked up and said, "Loans require collateral, right?"

Li Yingtang: "Yes, I mortgaged one of my mansions for 100,000 yuan, and two trustworthy friends contributed 60,000 and 30,000 yuan respectively, and that's how I started the factory."

Zhu Youqing: "What kind of factory do you run?"

"A furniture factory that specializes in producing cabinets."

"The machines that produce cabinets must be very expensive, right? Can you start one for less than 200,000?" Zhu Youqing asked.

"Is 200,000 a small amount? The machines are expensive, we can buy fewer." Li Yingtang had already planned to add more machines and expand the scale of the factory.

Li Tang said that there is a piece of land near the factory that is permitted to be traded.

It would cost 200W to buy it.

She had him mortgage the glass factory to buy the land and rebuild the factory.

He disagreed and called her a spendthrift.

She even suspected at the time that he knew her identity.

"What kind of proof is needed to mortgage the house?" Zhu Youqing asked.

Li Yingtang collected his thoughts: "Prove the house is yours? What? You want to mortgage the house for a loan too?"

Zhu Youqing's eyes flashed: "Just asking."

Li Yingtang then asked, "Are you a college student?"

Before Zhu Youqing could answer, Zhong Nana said, "Yes, he is a junior in college. I plan to have my dad transfer him to Ding Ying's workplace after he graduates."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Youqing's expression flashed with displeasure, and he got up and left.

They still didn't say hello.

Zhong Nana: "Youqing, what are you doing?"

Zhu Youqing said indifferently, "I'm a little sleepy, I'm going upstairs to rest for a while."

"Oh."

After Li Yingtang and the others went upstairs, entered their room, and closed the door, they returned to their previous topic: "Are you also at Brother Ding's workplace?"

"I was when I first graduated, but I'm not working now."

Li Yingtang: "Why?"

"I don't want to go, it's too annoying." Zhong Nana fantasized, "I plan to stay at home and take care of my husband and children after Youqing graduates."

For the first time, Li Yingtang truly experienced the terrifying power of being obsessed with love.

Providing the other party with a large house is no problem, spending money on them is no problem.

There's no problem with personally helping the other person's business.

Giving up her job to stay home and raise children, relying on her parents' influence to support a man from another family—that's a big problem.

Non-my family, its heart must be different.

Besides, can you really count on a man who lacks even basic manners?

Zhong Nana continued, "Women, you know, have to get married and have children. You're married now, but you're so busy managing the factory that you can't take care of your family. Doesn't your husband have any complaints about that?"

Li Yingtang decided to give Zhong Nana a few words of advice: "Marriage doesn't mean you have to stay at home. The child belongs to both of us, and there's no reason for me to raise him alone. If my man has any opinions about my work, it means he doesn't love me enough or understand me enough. He's not worth my effort."
