Chapter 345: Tastes Similar to Yours (5000)
"It's okay, it's okay." Chen Qingrong realized his own gaffe, recovered, and made up an excuse, "I was just thinking about recruitment and accidentally got distracted."
Tang Xiaoru chuckled. "You are so concerned about this matter. Haven't I already prepared to synchronize it on Boss Direct Hire? Besides, I personally think that if the company is just starting out, there is no need to recruit too many employees at once, because we probably won't have that many cases to handle at the beginning."
"I understand." Chen Qingrong smiled, "But it's better to be safe than sorry."
He glanced casually at the top of Tang Xiaoru's head again, and the spoiler text had disappeared silently just like before.
He was still wondering in his mind what was the reason for the quarrel during the National Day holiday, which almost escalated into a fight?
What was there for them to quarrel about?
They are so loving now.
Chen Qingrong thought from another angle.
If it was during the National Day holiday, and I had been tolerant of Tang Xiaoru and let her do whatever she wanted, then wouldn't the quarrel have happened?
But on second thought, it seems unlikely.
After all, the previous spoilers appeared anyway.
Moreover, this time the spoilers clearly mentioned that Tang Xiaoru realized her mistake and apologized to him. In other words, it was not his problem, but Tang Xiaoru's problem.
But what would Tang Xiaoru do to make him angry?
It seems that the only thing that would make him angry with Tang Xiaoru would be if Tang Xiaoru cheated on him, but this is obviously unlikely.
So what on earth is this?
Chen Qingrong's brain was about to explode.
Tang Xiaoru had no idea of what he was thinking, so she just said, "My mom just called me and asked us to go back for dinner tonight. She said grandma asked for a lucky charm for us and asked us to go back and get it."
Chen Qingrong smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, grandma. Let's go back early tonight."
"Okay."
After staying in the company for a while, the couple left.
They didn't eat here either, but went to a restaurant downstairs to eat.
Chen Qingrong ordered a plate of fried rice noodles with egg, while Tang Xiaoru ordered a simple plate of beef and green pepper rice.
"There are so many peppers." Tang Xiaoru muttered.
Chen Qingrong smiled helplessly, "Give me all the peppers. They are all green peppers and not spicy."
He also can't eat spicy food.
But if they were all green peppers, there would be no problem. But if they were replaced with red peppers, he would not dare to eat them.
Tang Xiaoru chuckled, "You misunderstood me. I meant that there are more green peppers, which is exactly what I want. Help me eat some meat, and I'll eat the green peppers."
"You want some green peppers?"
"I didn't want to eat it originally, but I found a pimple on my face this morning. They say eating chili peppers can help you sweat and reduce pimples, so I ate some."
As Tang Xiaoru spoke, she began to pick up the slices of meat from her bowl and put them into Chen Qingrong's bowl.
"Okay, okay." Chen Qingrong hurriedly stopped her, "There are only a few pieces of meat to begin with. If you give them all to me, then what are you going to eat?"
Tang Xiaoru said casually, "It's okay. I don't like eating meat anyway."
"You're talking nonsense." Chen Qingrong said angrily, "You obviously like eating sausages very much."
Tang Xiaoru's face turned red, and she stretched her legs forward from under the table and kicked Chen Qingrong directly on the calf.
"Hiss, why are you doing such a dirty trick?" Chen Qingrong was a little dissatisfied.
Tang Xiaoru blushed and cursed him in a low voice, "Who told you to be so careless when you speak? We are outside, you better behave yourself!"
Chen Qingrong felt aggrieved, "I am very serious. You like to eat those sausages that cost five yuan for two."
"Forehead."
"What kind of sausage do you think I'm talking about?" Chen Qingrong sneered, "I don't look down on myself that much. How can sausage be worthy of me? I usually describe myself as a giant python."
"Disgusting." Tang Xiaoru frowned in disgust.
Who says they are a python? It sounds disgusting.
Chen Qingrong smiled smugly and changed the subject, "Why didn't I notice that you had acne on your face?"
Tang Xiaoru said casually, "I squeezed it out when I went to the toilet this morning."
"Is that so?" Chen Qingrong said with some regret, "I will help you squeeze the pimples in the future. It's better not to bother you to do this kind of trivial matter yourself. Your servant will serve you personally."
Tang Xiaoru raised her eyebrows, "Then my servant, are you willing to carry me out later?"
Chen Qingrong smiled and said, "I don't want to, Master."
"Then you are a worthless servant." Tang Xiaoru gritted her teeth in anger.
Then she fiercely picked up a piece of green pepper slice, put it into her mouth and took a bite.
Tang Xiaoru smacked her lips and suddenly said something surprising, "It tastes almost the same as yours."
Chen Qingrong was stunned. "Huh? Mine is spicy? Not that bad, right?"
Tang Xiaoru said calmly, "The chili in your bowl does taste similar to the chili I just ate."
"Ah? That's what you're talking about?"
"What else?" Tang Xiaoru imitated him and sneered, "What do you think it is? Your giant python?"
Chen Qingrong, "..."
Jingle Bell.
The phone rings.
Chen Qingrong took out his cell phone and looked at it. "It's Gao Qiang who called me. Hello, Gao Qiang, what's the matter? Miss Yang? She's not with me now. I haven't seen her either. Wait a moment."
He paused and asked Tang Xiaoru, "Baby, has Miss Yang contacted you? Gao Qiang said he sent a WeChat message to Miss Yang, but she didn't reply for more than 21 hours and 17 minutes."
Tang Xiaoru pouted, "Bingbing went to Los Angeles last night. Didn't she tell Gao Qiang?"
Chen Qingrong told Gao Qiang the answer he got.
Gao Qiang first breathed a sigh of relief, then expressed a little regret, "So that's the case. It must be because of the time difference that she didn't reply to me. But why didn't she tell me?"
Chen Qingrong asked casually, "Did you have a quarrel with Miss Yang?"
Gao Qiang said, "No, after returning from Disney, I didn't meet her, but we did chat."
"That should be because she's having her period. You know, women are emotionally unstable when they're having their period, and they don't like everyone they see. Plus, you're really ugly, so it's easy to understand."
"..."
"Your sister's!"
Gao Qiang hung up the phone angrily.
Tang Xiaoru looked at Chen Qingrong meaningfully at this time and said, "What you said just now is very true. When I had my period, I also disliked you."
Chen Qingrong looked unconvinced. "I don't believe you. You were very dependent on me when you had your period. You would hug my neck tightly when you slept at night. Sometimes I was worried that I would be strangled to death by you in my sleep."
"Tsk." Tang Xiaoru curled her lips, suddenly thinking of something, and whispered, "Let me tell you a little-known fact. You probably don't know that when we girls have our periods, our sexual desires are the strongest."
Chen Qingrong was shocked, "Is this true?"
Tang Xiaoru thought for a moment and said seriously, "I can't say all of them, but Bingbing and I, as well as our roommates and good friends when we were in college, are all like this."
Chen Qingrong was startled. "Do you girls share who has the strongest jade?"
Tang Xiaoru retorted, "Don't you boys also talk about which girl has a fever and which girl has a big butt in private?"
"I haven't talked about it." Chen Qingrong immediately distanced himself from the matter. "I'm different from other men. Anyway, I haven't talked about it."
Tang Xiaoru was speechless, "Tsk, what a hypocritical guy."
……
After dinner, the couple returned home.
Chen Qingrong first went back to his own home and took all the thick clothes to Tang Xiaoru's home to wash.
Tang Xiaoru was very upset, "Why don't you wash it yourself?"
Chen Qingrong said seriously, "We are now officially living together, why are we wasting two portions of water? Do you know that there are many places in the world where people don't even have water to drink?"
Tang Xiaoru shook her head. "I don't know. It's none of my business. I don't have empathy."
Chen Qingrong was amused. "That's not right. Didn't the girl on Xiaohongshu say that you girls are the most empathetic to each other?"
"Stop talking nonsense." Tang Xiaoru punched him. "I just play Xiaohongshu, and you play tricks on me every day. I know there are a lot of crazy people on Xiaohongshu, but there are also a lot of normal people."
"I don't even mind you playing on Tieba."
"What's wrong with Tieba? It's so normal."
"hehe."
Tang Xiaoru naturally knew the joke that Tieba was called the men's restroom, while Xiaohongshu and Weibo were called the women's restrooms.
They are really a perfect match.
One is playing Tieba, the other is playing Xiaohongshu. Hey, they are two different species who can't sleep in the same bed. Chen Qingrong changed the subject at this time, "Do you want to go to sleep for a while? I'll wash the clothes and then clean up the house."
Tang Xiaoru nodded, "Okay, I'll go to bed, you do it."
Chen Qingrong was stunned. "No, buddy, you won't help me? I thought you would say, dear, you are so busy, how can I go to bed? Let me help you."
Tang Xiaoru smiled and hugged his neck, saying sweetly, "My dear, you are so busy, how can I make things difficult for you? Come on, I'm going to sleep."
Chen Qingrong, "..."
You got the wrong script, damn it!
"Alright, alright, go to sleep." Chen Qingrong didn't really bother with her, "Your dark circles are indeed very serious, go and get some sleep, I won't blanch you tonight."
"Tsk." Tang Xiaoru pinched his waist with her backhand, "You are worried about your kidneys, right? I'll take a nap for a while. I'm really sleepy. I didn't sleep well last night."
"Go."
Chen Qingrong slapped her on the butt.
Snapped.
"What a nuisance!"
Tang Xiaoru glanced at him and went back to the bedroom.
Chen Qingrong laughed happily, putting his hands on his hips.
Frankly speaking, spanking Tang Xiaoru's butt really gives me a sense of accomplishment, especially during exercise. It seems that many men like this. Can this represent a sense of accomplishment?
Chen Qingrong is also a hen.
Anyway, it feels great.
……
Tang Xiaoru slept until about six o'clock in the evening, and it was getting dark.
After she opened her eyes, she rubbed her head dazedly and sat up, then called out to the door, "Husband, are you there?"
"I'm here." Chen Qingrong quickened his pace, pushed the door open and walked in, smiling, "How come you only slept for more than four hours? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Tang Xiaoru shook her head and said, "My head hurts from sleeping. I don't want to sleep anymore. What time is it now?"
Chen Qingrong walked over and sat beside the bed and hugged her, "It's almost seven o'clock, are you hungry?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Xiaoru's stomach began to growl.
She touched her belly a little embarrassedly and smiled, "I'm really a little hungry. I'll change my clothes and we'll go to my parents' place. It's almost time now."
"Okay." Chen Qingrong held her right foot with one hand and picked up the small white socks on the ground with the other hand. "You are really dishonest when you sleep. If you sleep with socks on, there will basically be one less sock when you wake up."
Tang Xiaoru smiled and said, "I can't control my feet when I sleep. Besides, I'm giving you the opportunity to touch my feet, so you have to cherish it."
"Then I thank you very much."
Chen Qingrong gently put on the socks for her, and Tang Xiaoru's little feet moved twice.
"Little white socks are so sexy." Chen Qingrong said with emotion, "It's really like ice cream, delicious, I love it."
Tang Xiaoru's cheeks flushed and she spat, "Bah, I don't know when you'll be able to change your foot fetish."
"Why change it? Isn't it good enough?"
"Bullshit, I'm just waiting for my feet to be full of wrinkles when I'm 40 or 50 years old. I'll see if you still want to eat then."
"Then I won't eat it." Chen Qingrong answered straightforwardly.
Tang Xiaoru was immediately unhappy, "What do you mean? Oh, after I turned 40 or 50, you disliked me because I was old, right? You want to find someone younger, right? Men really like the new and hate the old!"
Chen Qingrong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "No, I didn't mean that. From what you said just now, you seemed to hope that I wouldn't eat it."
Tang Xiaoru snorted heavily, "Humph, I can hope, but you can't really say you won't eat. Eat, you have to eat until the day I die."
"..."
woman.
Your name is fickle!
After a while, the couple changed their clothes and went out.
When Tang Xiaoru came out of the bedroom, she found that the house had been cleaned tidy by Chen Qingrong, and the clothes were hung out to dry. She also held Chen Qingrong's face and kissed him hard several times.
"Very good, very good. From now on, I will be responsible for going out to make money, and you will be responsible for taking care of the housework at home. Our division of labor and cooperation is perfect." Tang Xiaoru said with a smile.
Chen Qingrong said dissatisfiedly, "No, I can take care of the house, there's nothing wrong with that, but I still have to work hard for my career. How can a man stay at home and take care of the housework? A grown man should have his own career."
Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes, "Your male chauvinism is coming again."
"It's not chauvinism. It has been like this since ancient times. Men are responsible for the outside world and women are responsible for the inside world."
"What era is this? Why are you still talking about that?"
"No matter what era it is, the laws of our ancestors cannot be changed." Chen Qingrong shrugged.
Tang Xiaoru smacked her lips, "Why do I see my grandmother's appearance in you?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Chen Qingrong was happy and ruffled her hair. "Let's go. By the way, throw away the kitchen garbage."
"OK."
After going downstairs to throw away the garbage, Chen Qingrong drove Tang Xiaoru to Tang's house.
When they arrived at the Tang family, Tang Xiaoru's grandparents had already arrived, and Lin Yue was also asking her aunt to cook. As for Tang Xiaoru's grandmother, she did not come.
Although Tang Xiaoru didn't like her grandmother very much, after greeting her grandparents, she still asked her mother, "Isn't grandma here tonight?"
Lin Yue smiled and said, "Your grandma is fasting tonight and chanting sutras at home. She will come over next time when she has time."
"Ok."
Tang Xiaoru felt inexplicably relieved.
Now that her grandmother is not around, her psychological pressure is much less.
After the family had a happy meal, grandma gave the amulet she had asked for to Chen Qingrong and Tang Xiaoru.
Grandma also said, "Wear the amulet to bless you with smooth sailing and peace."
Tang Xiaoru hugged her grandmother and said, "Thank you, grandma!"
"Xiao Chen." Tang Chengshan came over, "Come with me to the study, we can talk alone."
Chen Qingrong stood up immediately, "Okay uncle."
Grandpa was a little dissatisfied, "Chengshan, Qingrong rarely comes over, why did you let him go to the study to chat with you? Don't put on your airs as the head of the family. If you scare my grandson-in-law, you will see how I will beat you."
Tang Chengshan, a tall man over meters tall, did not dare to act rashly in front of his father. He could only smile and say, "You are worrying too much, Dad. I just said a few words to Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen is also my son-in-law. Why would I scare him?"
"Let's go, Xiao Chen."
"okay."
After arriving at the study, Tang Chengshan asked Chen Qingrong to close the door and then asked him to sit down.
Then, Tang Chengshan took out a contract from the desk and placed it in front of Chen Qingrong, and handed him a pen.
"Please sign, Xiao Chen." Tang Chengshan laughed.
Chen Qingrong was a little confused. After flipping through the contract, he was immediately horrified. "Uncle, you want to give me 30% of your profits from the fund? How can this be possible? I absolutely cannot accept this."
Tang Chengshan smiled and said, "Don't be so nervous. This time our Tang family was able to turn danger into safety, thanks to you. To be frank, the 30% profit I give you is just an insurance. It doesn't mean that I will give you that much money right now. It's equivalent to you investing without spending a penny."
"This money will just stay there and grow in value. When you need it, I will help you withdraw it. This is the result of a discussion between your aunt and I. Don't refuse. Just take it."
Chen Qingrong was still a little hesitant. "You two have helped me a lot. This time, I was just lucky. This money is too much. I really can't take it."
"So you just don't give your uncle face?"
"no!"
"Then sign it." Tang Chengshan's tone was unquestionable. "Don't be so hypocritical, kid. Your aunt and I treat you as our own son. How can a son be so distant with his own parents? Are you still distant with your own parents?"
"This is just a small gift for you. To be frank, if you don't want to take it out, I can't force you. There is no other meaning for you to accept it. Uncle and aunt arranged this just to thank you. I have said it so bluntly. If you still don't accept it, then you are really not giving me face."
"This..." Chen Qingrong hesitated for a moment, and said helplessly, "Okay, I'll sign it, and I'll listen to you and Auntie, but I probably won't be able to use this money."
He signed the contract quickly.
Tang Chengshan's eyes flashed with a meaningful light, and he laughed, "If you don't need it, just keep it. Haha, it won't run away anyway."
After signing, Chen Qingrong's cell phone rang.
He quickly stood up and said, "Uncle, I'm going to go out and answer the phone."
"Well, you go."
Chen Qingrong went to the corridor outside and answered the phone, "Hello, Lao Sun, what's up? Hmm? Class reunion? Tomorrow night?"
Thanks for the monthly ticket
