Film and Television: The Collector Who Rampages Across the Heavens
Chapter 137 Auntie, may I come to your house for tea?
"What other CEO could be so handsome and from such a good family? If I weren't already married, I would definitely be chasing after him," the young woman teased, covering her luscious lips.
"With your face and figure, you wouldn't even qualify as a mistress," Yuan Yuan thought to herself.
"No wonder they seemed to have such a wide network of connections..." Yuan Yuan recalled when she went through the onboarding process.
"It's all just an act. I have a fellow villager who works in the HR department. I heard that Zhu Suosuo has a bachelor's degree in tourism management. I'm afraid that if it weren't for President Su's connections, she wouldn't have been able to get into this company at all."
The young woman gave a soft hum, clearly disliking or disliking the other woman as well.
"Forget it, it's their ability to have connections. Let's just focus on our work." Yuan Yuan shook her head, seemingly not wanting to think too much about it.
"Honest work won't get you anywhere. Take our sales department's deputy manager, Amber, for example. If her entire team hadn't joined the company, do you think a lowly salesperson like her could have gotten to this position?"
The young woman seemed to be speaking from the heart, leaning her voluptuous body closer, "I've been working here for quite a while, just like a salted fish selling houses for commission. You're still young, don't get corrupted by this big dye vat of sales."
After all, female real estate agents generally don't have a good public image.
"I know, thank you for reminding me, Sister Liu..."
Whether the other person was joking or meant well, Yuan Yuan accepted what she said, but her education wasn't great either. If she hadn't shamelessly asked Jiang Nansun to find her a job, she might not have been able to get into this place!
Leaving the sales industry is incredibly difficult!
Could it be that she really has to find a solution through President Su? She doesn't dislike this man, but the key question is whether he even looks at her!
Yuan Yuan rubbed her fair forehead without thinking too much about it. When she saw a guest enter the hall, she quickly put on a sweet smile and respectfully approached him.
"Hello sir, are you here to view the apartment?"
……
It was late, around 9 p.m.
The piano inside the bar was playing soothing music, and the men and women at the bar were drinking and chatting. Su Li and Tang Xin were among them.
"There's instability within Jingyan Group; some shareholders are very dissatisfied with Ye Jinyan..."
Tang Xin recently tidied her hair; after wearing a well-tailored white shirt, her long hair was tied into a ponytail with a hint of light purple.
"Definitely. So many senior executives have left, like you and Yang Ke, as well as grassroots sales staff. To put it bluntly, it's been a huge blow, but it's definitely been quite painful."
Su Li clinked glasses with her and said, "My judgment was right after all; you've brought profits to Suyang Real Estate."
"Same here, we're all in this to make money." Tang Xin pursed her thin, moist lips, her watery eyes filled with a thoughtful expression, and said, "Recently, I've been considering trying to persuade Li Ang to join the company. I don't need to tell you about his abilities, President Su, you know them well. If Li Ang can join us, our team will be even stronger."
"Sure, just tell me what you need, and I'll give you my full support," Su Li said readily.
Tang Xin smiled and said, "It's great to work with you, President Su!"
"Really? There will be many more opportunities to collaborate in the future, so there's no rush."
The two drank and chatted until late at night, as usual, and then took a car home. When they arrived at Tang Xin's building...
Su Li stared intently at the pretty woman and asked, "I'm feeling a little tipsy. May I come upstairs for a cup of tea?"
Tang Xin paused as she got out of the car. As an adult, she understood the meaning behind the young man's suggestion of drinking tea.
She may have thought about it in her mind, hesitated for two seconds, and then got out of the car without saying a word, just glancing back at him.
Silence implies presupposition... Su Li suddenly stood up and followed her out of the car, going upstairs together. This aunt lived in a very simple and refreshing place, probably because she was single and had a strong career drive.
The room was completely exposed, containing only personal belongings and some books.
"Please sit wherever you like. I rarely have outsiders here."
Tang Xin took two bottles of tea drinks from the refrigerator, opened one, and handed it over.
"I'll come often from now on. Just don't complain about how often I come, Sister Xin." Su Li seized the opportunity to get closer to the two. His goal was simple: to be both colleagues and friends, and it wouldn't be wrong to deepen the relationship further.
Tang Xin rolled her eyes at the tall boy opposite her, crossed her legs, and said, "Sweet words don't work on me. I'm a married woman, and I know the personalities of you men. You're all like dogs."
"After eating too many pork-filled buns, I want to switch to beef-filled ones; then I get tired of them and try something else—I'm never truly full."
That was so true that Su Li was speechless and could only try to say the nicest things.
"Sister Xin, you're like a fairy-filled bun; you don't even need to taste it, just the smell is wonderful!"
"loquacious!"
After chatting for a few minutes, Tang Xin went to take a shower. She came out soon after, wrapped in a bathrobe, and went to the bedroom, with Su Li following behind like a big wolfhound…
It rained again in Shanghai, and the raindrops fell on the flowers that had long enjoyed the dew, making them sparkle overnight.
Su Li went for a run in the morning, walked around downstairs a few times, and bought some breakfast on the way up. Tang Xin washed her face and brushed her teeth in the bathroom when she came in. Her face, with her hair down, was charming and beautiful.
"Not going to rest? You didn't get much sleep last night," Su Li said matter-of-factly.
There's a saying that goes something like this: "Thirty is like this, forty is like that." This aunt is at the most terrifying level. Last night's battle was exceptionally fierce. He's no ordinary person.
Surprisingly, Tang Xin still insisted on going to work.
"I have a task force to attend to today, so I can just take a nap in the office this afternoon," Tang Xin said, glancing over. "Don't check up on me then!"
"I'll lock the door for you..." Su Li said with a smile, handing over the steamed bun.
Tang Xin ate quickly, finishing her breakfast in no time, and then went to the inner room to change her clothes.
When she came out, her outfit was a sight to behold: a ribbon-tied satin shirt and a pencil skirt, both fresh and elegant. The most eye-catching feature was her light-colored stockings, which made her calves look round and well-proportioned, paired with pointed high heels.
"If you had worn this before, you would have looked like a completely different person," Su Li praised. The other person already had a good foundation, but she didn't usually like to dress up.
He understood. After all, Tang Xin was divorced and had no man. She only had work to do every day. Even if she dressed up, who was she dressing up for?
Tang Xin smiled faintly, glanced at her watch, and said, "It's getting late, let's go to work. I'll go downstairs to get the car. Hurry up and change your clothes."
She turned to leave, but Su Li wrapped her arms around her waist from behind, rested her chin on her left shoulder, and blew warm breath on her, causing a few strands of her hair to flutter.
"Wait a little longer, there's still plenty of time!"
"Stop messing around... Ugh!"
The commotion lasted for more than two hours. By the time Su Li and Tang Xin arrived at the company, it was nearly 10 o'clock. The elevator doors opened with a ding, and Yang Ke outside saw the two of them come up.
Having been promoted to vice president, he naturally didn't need to stay in the company all day. The clients he needed to entertain were all company executives and management.
"Let's find a chance to have dinner together in a couple of days, don't forget then," Su Li said, patting him on the shoulder.
"Okay, keep calling me." Yang Ke glanced at Tang Xin, slightly surprised, and smiled, "Ms. Tang, you look beautiful today!"
"See? I told you President Tang was a little different today, but she didn't believe me."
Su Li finished speaking, the elevator doors closed, and Tang Xin lightly punched his side waist. Her bodycon skirt had been replaced with long, thin casual pants.
As they parted ways in the office, he whispered, "Wait for me in the parking lot after get off work this afternoon."
Before the woman could reply, he quickly walked away.
There wasn't much to do in the morning. Aside from company business, Su Li was most pleased that her restaurant was making a good profit and she was already planning to open a second one.
The success of the first restaurant doesn't guarantee the success of the second in the chain, so he has to be very careful, as it concerns his actual business strategy.
After having lunch at the company cafeteria, Su Li drove out of the underground parking lot and saw Jiang Nansun waiting for his car on the roadside. He slowed down and drove over.
"Where to?"
"I'm going back to school..."
"I'm going that way anyway, I'll give you a ride."
Jiang Nansun hesitated for a moment, then opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat of the luxurious McLaren.
"How is Uncle Jiang doing lately?" Su Li asked.
Jiang Nansun gave a wry smile: "He's prematurely entered retirement mode, and now he has nothing to do every day."
Su Li nodded slightly. Jiang Pengfei had been pampered since childhood and was used to a luxurious life. Once he lost his money, he became a useless person. If it weren't for his good daughter, he would have trouble even eating.
"Don't worry, just keep working hard, the hard times will eventually pass."
Jiang Nansun nodded, and was about to speak when her phone rang. After answering and saying a few words, her pretty face changed.
"I...I understand, I'll go back right away."
Sensing something was off about her tone, Su Li looked over and asked, "What's wrong?"
"President Su, you can just drop me off by the roadside. I need to go home." Jiang Nansun clenched her fists, her eyes showing a hint of sorrow.
"I send you……"
As Su Li turned at the traffic light, she said earnestly, "If you need help, just tell me. Don't try to handle everything alone."
Jiang Nansun bit her lower lip and shook her head.
They quickly drove to the Jiang family home. The girl jumped out of the car and ran into the house. Her parents and grandmother were in the living room, but the atmosphere was quite tense.
When Jiang's mother saw her daughter return, a smile spread across her face. She patted the seat next to her and said, "Come, sit here!"
After her daughter sat down, she looked at the family of four and said, "Now that everyone is here, let's have a good talk."
Jiang Nansun felt a pang of sadness but had nothing to say. The phone call she received in the car was that her parents wanted to get a divorce.
Whether it's due to emotional reasons or financial issues, it's probably a combination of both. In this family that favors sons over daughters, she and her mother have suffered a lot of disdain. They thought this family would just continue like this, but they never expected it to come to an end today!
She was only there to be a witness, to coldly observe her parents dividing their property, since there wasn't really anything to divide.
Her mother didn't want anything and originally wanted to take her away, but unfortunately, she was now the pillar of the family, and Jiang Nansun herself wouldn't agree, nor would her father and grandmother.
Mrs. Jiang breathed a sigh of relief: "Since it's settled, then we'll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow..."
Jiang Pengfei nodded, his expression unreadable. He looked at his daughter, "Nan Sun, is there anything you'd like to say?"
"I...no, I have something to do and I have to go out. I'll ask for leave tomorrow to go with you."
After Jiang Nansun finished speaking in a slightly hoarse voice, she got up and left the living room. Tears welled up in her almond-shaped eyes. She wiped them away and told herself to be strong. From now on, she would have to support this family on her own.
"President Su, you didn't leave?"
Outside, a handsome man, bathed in the autumn sunlight, was sitting on the hood of a car playing on his phone. He immediately turned his gaze to her when he saw her come out.
"I'm afraid something will happen to you."
Su Li's casual remark sent a shiver down Jiang Nansun's spine. Jiang Nansun's lips moved slightly as she softened her tone and said, "What could possibly happen? It's just a family dispute. Every family has its own problems. My parents are getting divorced... It's a small matter."
There are many divorces these days, so there will still be opportunities to see each other in the future.
She said that, but Su Li could tell that the girl was in great pain. Watching her get into the passenger seat, he opened the car door and got in, handing her a tissue.
"Thank you!" Jiang Nansun wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, fighting back the urge to cry. "President Su, let's go."
As he drove away from the Jiang family home, the girl's parents' divorce was not unexpected. Jiang's mother was a sophisticated egoist, a woman who lived purely for money. Asking her to live without money was simply a joke.
Jiang Nanchun looked out the window with a confused expression, her thoughts in turmoil. When the car stopped, she realized that she hadn't arrived at school, but at a shopping mall.
"You're not efficient when you're in a bad mood. Come on, I'll play with you for a bit."
If Zu Li doesn't seize this opportunity to win the girl's heart, he'll be a worthy playboy.
"No need, you have things to do, and I have to go to school too..."
"Just come with me, there's never enough work to do."
Su Li came over from the other side, opened the passenger door, grabbed her fair wrist and pulled her out, and walked into the mall like a couple.
"Violent racing, easy to learn and fun, I'll teach you."
Su Li taught her step by step: she didn't need to win, she just needed to let herself vent by running wild; the more grief she felt, the more she needed to distract herself.
Jiang Nansun was initially reluctant, but as he played more games, he gradually became interested in them, such as claw machines, shooting simulations, and boxing.
"Yes, yes, this gold one is nice, and so is the pink one!"
"Wow, that's impressive, catching so many at once..."
The two stood around the goldfish pond, the girl shouting and yelling, even more excited than Su Li, the person involved.
The goldfish shop owner's face was quite dark. One net had scooped up several baskets of goldfish. He had personally inspected it; the paper net belonged to his shop, and it would tear as soon as someone else tried to use it. But what was wrong with this kid?
"Hey beautiful, your boyfriend is amazing! Can he help me with some things too?"
The round-faced girl's words made Jiang Nansun's cheeks flush. Boyfriend... was her best friend's boyfriend, not hers.
Looking at Su Li's handsome profile, she felt a pang of sadness...
