Chapter 216 It Turns Out to be a Lily
Tang Xiaoru smiled unnaturally, "No, no, please don't make fun of me."
Mrs. Li smiled and gave Chen Qingrong a meaningful look before saying to Tang Xiaoru, "Okay, okay, I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."
"Mrs. Li, take care." Tang Xiaoru smiled and saw Mrs. Li off.
She looked at Chen Qingrong again and found that the latter had a strange expression.
So she said, "I didn't mean to hide your identity, it's because Mrs. Li knows our chairman, and there are some conflicts between the chairman and me, and I'm afraid she will say something in front of the chairman."
Chen Qingrong was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and smiled, "I don't mind this. Your parents know that we are dating. I don't care whether other people know it or not. I was just thinking about what Mrs. Li said about you. What is it?"
Tang Xiaoru hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "Don't ask so many questions. I will tell you when the time comes."
"You're deliberately keeping me in suspense, aren't you?" Chen Qingrong pretended to be dissatisfied and sat down. "There should be a high degree of transparency between a couple. You're like me. I have nothing to hide from you. I can even tell you when I rewarded myself for the first time."
Tang Xiaoru's face turned red and green, "I'm not interested in knowing that, pervert."
Chen Qingrong was anxious, "Hey, I didn't ask you when you would reward yourself. I was talking about me, so why is it abnormal?"
"I don't reward myself." Tang Xiaoru refuted him expressionlessly. After thinking for a while, she finally said, "If you want to know, I'll tell you. It's just a little embarrassing, but it's not something shameful."
"The husband of Mrs. Li is in finance. I met the couple at a cocktail party with the chairman. In addition to meeting the couple, I also met their niece."
"and then?"
“Then I discovered that their niece wasn’t straight.”
"Hey?" Chen Qingrong was confused. "Are you telling me a tongue twister?"
Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him, picked up the spoon with one hand and rubbed it gently before continuing, "Stupid, what I mean is that she doesn't like men."
Chen Qingrong opened his mouth and immediately understood.
It turned out to be the case.
It turns out to be a lily.
He suddenly had a guess, "Could this woman be with you, Xiaoru..."
He did not continue.
Tang Xiaoru said quietly, "She expressed her feelings to me, but I rejected her. Later I heard that she went to New Zealand. That's the story."
"Is that so?" Chen Qingrong grinned, "Our Xiaoru is really charming, she's popular with both men and women."
"Don't make such a joke." Tang Xiaoru frowned slightly, "I'm disgusted."
"Okay, okay, then I won't joke around anymore and I'll just pretend I didn't hear about it."
In fact, Chen Qingrong could understand Tang Xiaoru's feelings. If Qi Long started to pursue him, he would be so angry that he would climb up Kongtong Mountain overnight.
However, at this moment, an idea suddenly flashed in Chen Qingrong's mind.
Wait a minute, the love rival mentioned in the spoiler text is put in double quotation marks. Could it be referring to the woman Xiaoru mentioned?
Is this the kind of love rival he is?
If it was really her, then it shouldn't affect his relationship with Xiaoru.
Chen Qingrong decided that he was worrying too much.
However, it is not certain yet.
The spoiler text says it will be at the end of this month, but there is still some time before the end of the month and we don’t know which day it will be. For now, Chen Qingrong can only take it one step at a time.
……
After returning to the company in the afternoon, Chen Qingrong went to the marketing department on Tang Xiaoru's orders.
Since Deng left, a new female director has been appointed to the marketing department. She has a mole between her eyebrows and is also in her thirties. Overall, she is quite pretty.
If you ignore her belly which is slightly bulging due to the extra fat.
"Hello, Minister Yin." Chen Qingrong handed over the document in his hand. "This is a report about the materials our department needs at the beginning of next month that our director asked me to send. Please review it and approve it." "No problem." Minister Yin took it and said, "Go back and tell your director. I will give her a reply within three days."
"Okay, I'll take my leave now and won't bother you anymore."
"Wait a moment." Minister Yin suddenly stopped him and asked meaningfully, "I also know about Minister Deng's offense against Deputy Director Qi. I heard that you were involved in that incident?"
Chen Qingrong laughed, "Yes, if you are interested, Minister Yin, you can ask our director or chairman, they know more details."
Minister Yin's mouth twitched, "No need, I'm not a gossipy woman, just go and do your thing."
"Okay, bye."
Chen Qingrong left first.
He didn't know why Minister Yin asked him about that, but it was good to stay vigilant.
After finishing an afternoon's work, Qi Long took everyone in the design department out for dinner.
He booked a table at a barbecue restaurant not far from the company. As dozens of people entered, the small restaurant, which was decorated in a warm and cozy style, was immediately packed.
Qi Long and Tang Xiaoru sat at a table. Originally, the other employees were embarrassed to come and sit there, but Qi Long found it boring, so he called a few more people over. Tang Xiaoru also asked Chen Qingrong to come and sit there.
In this way, the number of people at each table is more balanced.
After the order was placed, the meat was served. For a moment, the whole restaurant was filled with the sound of sizzling grilled meat. Some people were drinking, some were bragging, and it was very lively for a while.
Qi Long reached out to get the beer at this time. Chen Qingrong quickly brought him a bottle, pried it open with his thumb, and poured a glass for Qi Long.
Then he symbolically poured wine for Tang Xiaoru.
Tang Xiaoru said, "I still have to drive, so I won't drink. Chen Qingrong, you guys drink with the deputy director."
"Okay, okay, Deputy Director, come, I'll drink with you."
"Don't underestimate me." Qi Long unzipped his jacket and threw it behind him, revealing the mesh shirt he was wearing underneath. "When I was studying abroad, my nickname was the God of Wine. Don't underestimate me. It would be embarrassing if I vomit after drinking."
When Chen Qingrong saw his mesh shirt, he suddenly had the urge to escape.
It's really too astringent.
……
After the dinner, Qi Long was taken away.
This so-called god of wine underestimated the power of white wine and thought he was drinking foreign liquor, and then he vomited after drinking it.
Chen Qingrong also drank a lot. He went to the toilet to vomit for a while before leaving the restaurant.
It turned out that everyone including Tang Xiaoru was missing.
So disloyal?
Chen Qingrong held his waist and walked out of the restaurant, then saw Tang Xiaoru walking towards him with a bottle of milk.
"Are you feeling better?" Tang Xiaoru walked up to him, unscrewed the lid and handed him the milk, "Drink some, it will help you sober up."
"Thank you." Chen Qingrong took over and finished the bottle. He smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay. I don't feel very bad. I did drink a little too much tonight."
"Idiot, don't you take it easy?"
"It's because you can't drink, so we must keep the deputy director company." Chen Qingrong laughed dryly, then took her hand, "Let's walk for a while before taking the bus, okay? I don't want to take the bus now."
"alright."
Tang Xiaoru didn't take his hand away, and followed him towards the parking lot not far away.
"Do you want to sleep at my house tonight?" Tang Xiaoru suddenly asked.
Chen Qingrong looked at her in surprise, "Sleeping with you? Is today the day?"
