Chapter 368 Don’t tire my son-in-law out (5000)
Tang Xiaoru thought about it for a moment and kept it a secret, "Let me handle this matter."
Chen Qingrong said worriedly, "Don't just say you will handle it. Tell me what you plan to do. I will help you."
Tang Xiaoru smiled mysteriously, "Don't ask so many questions, husband. I just have a rough plan. Just let me handle it. Don't worry, I won't act blindly. In fact, I don't plan to do it myself."
"You don't plan to come forward yourself?" Chen Qingrong was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly had a guess, "Do you want my father-in-law to come forward? Or do you want to find other connections?"
Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him and said, "Don't bother asking me any more questions. Anyway, I'll handle this matter. Trust me."
Chen Qingrong thought about it and said helplessly, "Okay then, if you don't let me ask, I won't ask. Anyway, if there is anything you need me to do, just tell me and I will definitely help you do it."
"I know." Tang Xiaoru hugged his neck and kissed his face, then pretended to be disgusted and said, "Why is your face sore? Didn't I remember you washed your face this morning?"
Chen Qingrong was speechless. "Sister, the temperature is so high today, isn't it normal to sweat? Stop dissing my skin."
"Hey."
"Oh, right." Chen Qingrong thought of something else. "When Auntie came today, she told me that we should go home for dinner tonight. She said she would cook turtle soup for us tonight."
"Turtle soup?" Tang Xiaoru frowned. "I don't like eating turtles, nor do I like drinking turtle soup. Do you like it?"
Chen Qingrong shook his head vigorously. "I have never eaten soft-shelled turtle in my life. The most I have eaten is eel. I thought you liked to eat soft-shelled turtle."
"How is that possible? I don't have such strong taste."
"Anyway, no matter what, just go back home and eat tonight. Don't let Auntie down for her good intentions."
"Tsk, you are quite a filial son-in-law." Tang Xiaoru suddenly grabbed Chen Qingrong's collar and threatened him, "I'm warning you, try to act so well-behaved in front of my parents, otherwise I, as a daughter, will be portrayed as a rebellious girl."
Chen Qingrong said shamelessly, "I'm not pretending. I'm really very well behaved, I'm not pretending."
Tang Xiaoru gritted her teeth in anger, "You still want to talk? Do you believe I will bite you?"
"I don't believe you dare to bite me. You said that the soundproofing here is not good. If you dare to bite me, I will scream. Hiss, you really bite me!"
Chen Qingrong never expected that Tang Xiaoru would not keep her word.
She clearly said that the office had poor soundproofing and that we should not make any noise so as not to be heard by employees outside.
But unexpectedly, she said to open her mouth and bite it.
However, it was not Chen Qingrong's shoulder that was bitten, but Dick.
Forty minutes later, Chen Qingrong walked out of Tang Xiaoru's office with a happy look on his face, looking as if nothing had happened.
It’s not because he’s very resistant to bites, but after Tang Xiaoru bit him almost enough, he bit back.
Frankly speaking, when Tang Xiaoru bit him, he was not as patient as he was during actual combat. Maybe it was because it was more stimulating?
……
As soon as the working hours got off work in the evening, Chen Qingrong began to urge his employees to leave.
He was a worker who was promoted to a leader. He hated overtime work, so if he could make employees leave on time, he would not let them stay for even a minute longer.
What we are saying is that commercial electricity is really expensive, okay?
"Mr. Chen, why haven't I seen Brother Qiang come back?" Xiao Yuan took her bag and came to Chen Qingrong and asked.
Chen Qingrong said, "He went to meet a client this afternoon. It was a married woman. He just sent me a WeChat message saying that he would not be back and would have dinner with her in the evening."
Xiao Yuan had a strange expression on her face. "Mr. Chen, why did you emphasize that she was a married woman? I always felt like you were hinting at something."
Chen Qingrong smiled casually, "I'm not hinting at anything, but Xiaoyuan, don't you think Gao Qiang is a bit like a housewife killer? Compared to unmarried girls, he seems to be more popular with married sisters?"
"Brother Qiang? Housewife killer?" Xiao Yuan laughed, "Mr. Chen, please stop flattering Brother Qiang. This kind of compliment is not suitable for him."
Chen Qingrong thought to himself that it was a good thing that Gao Qiang was not here, otherwise he would have been upset to death if he heard what Xiao Yuan said.
He changed the subject and urged, "Okay, stop talking nonsense and go back to change your clothes. By the way, where are you and Liang Qingyun going to eat tonight? Rose Restaurant?"
Xiao Yuan said very embarrassedly, "I, Mr. Liang and I are not lovers, why should we go to that kind of restaurant? I, I just want to find a random restaurant to treat him to dinner."
"That won't work." Chen Qingrong said earnestly, "Mr. Liang is a rich young man after all, and he helped you yesterday. How can you treat him to a meal at any random restaurant? It shows how disrespectful you are to him."
Xiaoyuan exclaimed, and after thinking about it carefully, it turned out to be true.
After all, Liang Qingyun has a prominent family background. She can't invite him to a fast food restaurant for dinner, right?
Xiao Yuan scratched her head anxiously, "Then where should I invite him to dinner? I've rarely invited anyone to dinner before. When I invited you and Brother Qiang to dinner before, we always went to a food stall."
Chen Qingrong smiled and said, "You've asked so many people. After Xiaoru and I got together, we've been to so many restaurants in Shanghai. Let me recommend you one that's both affordable and has a good atmosphere."
As he spoke, Chen Qingrong took out his phone and said, "I'll recommend this restaurant's official account to you later. You can book a table from their official account first. The price is not very expensive, about 200 yuan per person. The main thing is that the atmosphere is better, much better than the food stalls."
Xiao Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully, "Thank you, Mr. Chen. I'll leave first. Remember to push me."
"Okay, don't worry."
Tang Xiaoru just happened to come out, "Hey, Xiaoyuan, you haven't left yet?"
Xiao Yuan said embarrassedly, "Yes, Mr. Tang, I was looking for Mr. Chen's help. Now it's done, I'll leave first, you guys should leave early too."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
"Ok, see you tomorrow."
Xiaoyuan left first.
Tang Xiaoru then walked over to Chen Qingrong and took a curious look at his phone screen. "Huh? Isn't this the couple-themed restaurant we often went to before? Are you planning to make a reservation to eat?"
Chen Qingrong chuckled, "No, Xiaoyuan said she didn't know where to take Liang Qingyun out for dinner, so I recommended this restaurant to her. The cost is not very high, and Xiaoyuan can still afford it with her salary."
Tang Xiaoru's expression suddenly became strange. "Xiaoyuan, do you know that this is a couple-themed restaurant that gives away coupons for king-size rooms after spending over a thousand yuan?"
Chen Qingrong pouted, "She probably doesn't know."
Tang Xiaoru laughed angrily, "Then you are cheating people, aren't you? When Xiaoyuan knows the truth, she will hate you to death."
Chen Qingrong said casually, "It doesn't matter. I just recommended a restaurant with a good atmosphere to her. Isn't it okay for them not to go and get a room? And Xiaoru, tell me yourself, is the atmosphere of this restaurant good?"
Tang Xiaoru was speechless for a moment.
This was the restaurant she had taken Chen Qingrong to before, and she had seen it while watching Douyin.
Frankly speaking, the atmosphere of the restaurant is really nice. It is especially suitable for wealthy couples who want to go there in the evening to cultivate their sentiments after a busy day.
Tang Xiaoru curled her lips and didn't respond to Chen Qingrong's words. She just said sarcastically, "You like being a matchmaker so much, don't you?"
Chen Qingrong pretended to be innocent. "I'm not a matchmaker. I'm just recommending a good restaurant to Xiaoyuan from the perspective of an experienced person. As for how the plot develops after they go to the restaurant, that's none of my business."
"Tsk." Tang Xiaoru pouted her red lips and took his arm, "Come on, let's go back to my house."
"OK."
After leaving the company, the couple drove back to the Tang family together.
Every time he comes here now, Chen Qingrong no longer buys things specially, but after getting home, he still has to do the work.
She helped her mother-in-law water the flowers and helped her father-in-law wash the car. She was busy running around and seemed very thoughtful.
Lin Yue praised him repeatedly, "Xiao Ru, your father and I are so pleased that you found such a good boy like Xiao Chen. No wonder you didn't fall in love earlier. It seems that you wanted to save your luck by meeting Xiao Chen. It would be even better if you two could have a baby sooner, haha."
Tang Xiaoru's ears turned red, and she pulled down the corners of her mouth and said, "Mom, why are you urging me and Chen Qingrong to have a baby again? Didn't we agree that we will have a baby after Chen Qingrong and I have a stable career?"
Lin Yue grabbed her hand and stroked it, then said earnestly, "Mom is doing this for your own good. It's dangerous for a woman to have a child after she's over 30. Even if you have a stable career, it's not too late."
"I know, I know." Tang Xiaoru was helpless with her mother.
Parents are always like this. They only care about whether their demands can get results, and never care about their children's true thoughts.
After urging you to find a partner, they urge you to get married. After urging you to get married, they urge you to have children. What happens after you have children?
It's time to urge you to die.
You have completed your mission of continuing the family line, why don't you die?
Of course, these are just some extreme thoughts that Tang Xiaoru has when she is annoyed by her parents' urging.
She actually understood that her parents urged her to get married and have children for her own good.
It’s just that sometimes the method is not so appropriate.
"When will Dad come back?" Tang Xiaoru changed the subject.
Lin Yue said, "Around 8 o'clock tonight. He was meeting up with friends he hadn't seen for a long time and didn't plan to come back. But he heard that you and Xiao Chen were coming back tonight, so he turned down the plan to eat out tonight." At this point, she sighed, "Ah, to be honest, I am really blessed by you kids. If it was just me and your dad at home, your dad wouldn't care if an old and ugly woman like me was lonely at home."
Tang Xiaoru was overjoyed, "Mom, don't say that. Dad still loves you and cares about your feelings."
"What do you know?" Lin Yue gave her a look and urged, "Go get Xiao Chen some mineral water. Look how hot it is for Xiao Chen. Don't let it get too hot for my son-in-law."
"Oh fine."
Tang Xiaoru went to the refrigerator to get some iced mineral water, then quickly walked behind Chen Qingrong who was pruning the roses in the flowerbed.
She reached out and gently patted Chen Qingrong's butt.
"Ah~"
Chen Qingrong let out a very charming cry.
Tang Xiaoru had goosebumps all over her body, "Hey, you, you are so disgusting, stop yelling, or my mom will hear it and I won't be able to explain it to her."
Chen Qingrong turned around and said, "Then why are you patting my butt? Don't you know that you can't pat my electric butt casually?"
Tang Xiaoru's forehead was covered with black lines. "Can you please stop giving yourself such disgusting nicknames? It sounds like you're a gigolo in a club."
"Hey." Chen Qingrong was very dissatisfied, "You are making up a dirty rumor about men. See you at Sunba!"
"Hmph." Tang Xiaoru snorted, unscrewed the bottle cap and handed him the mineral water, "Here, drink some. You look so hot. Why are you working so hard? We are engaged."
Chen Qingrong took two sips from the drink and said seriously, "Look at what you said. Just because I'm engaged, can't I work more at my father-in-law's and mother-in-law's house? You make it seem like I work for some purpose. Am I that kind of person?"
Tang Xiaoru tilted her head and smiled, "Isn't it?"
Chen Qingrong groaned and denied it guiltily, "Of course not, I just really love labor. You know, I'm a farmer's child, and labor is the most glorious."
"Give me the scissors." Tang Xiaoru didn't respond and took the huge scissors from his hand.
You cannot use small scissors to prune the flowers and ornamental trees in this kind of flower bed, because they cannot be trimmed at all. You have to use these oversized scissors.
Chen Qingrong said worriedly, "You'd better stop playing with the scissors. Let me do it. I feel like this thing is almost as tall as you."
"Nonsense." Tang Xiaoru was very dissatisfied. "I rounded it up to meters. How can it be taller than me? It's not even as long as my legs."
Chen Qingrong touched his chin and said, "You are wearing jeans, so I can't tell how long your legs are. Unless you wear black stockings tonight, I will measure them carefully."
Tang Xiaoru sneered, "Haha, okay, you'd better use this pair of scissors as a reference. If you find that it's not as long as my legs, I will cut off your little chick."
Chen Qingrong, "..."
"A vicious woman."
He squeezed his legs together and took a few steps back.
Suddenly I thought of the latest spoilers.
So is it really a blast in the physical sense?
God bless you better not play like this, otherwise, he will cry.
At around eight o'clock in the evening, Tang Chengshan returned home and the family began to enjoy their dinner happily.
During the meal, Chen Qingrong’s WeChat phone rang.
He quickly took out his cell phone and took a look, and was immediately happy.
It was a message sent to him by Xiaoyuan.
Xiao Yuan, "I'm so angry, I'm so angry, Brother Chen! You're killing me. How come the restaurant you recommended to me is a couples restaurant? I'm so embarrassed!"
Chen Qingrong pretended to be confused. "Ah? Is it a couples restaurant? I forgot. I just remember that it was a restaurant with a nice atmosphere. Um, just tell me whether the atmosphere inside is good or not."
Xiao Yuan, "Angry, contemptuous, what a hammer, I'm not going to go in, humph! You are deliberately trying to hurt me! I said the name of some ordinary restaurant is Lip Charm, ahhh, you are so annoying!"
Chen Qingrong, "You're not going in? That's so rude, what will Liang Qingyun think of you?"
Unfortunately, after sending this message, Xiaoyuan didn't reply to him.
This made Chen Qingrong feel really uncomfortable.
He really wanted to gossip about what happened next, but unfortunately there was nothing he could do now.
At this time, Tang Xiaoru pinched his leg lightly with her hand. He looked at Tang Xiaoru and found that Tang Xiaoru was glaring at him.
Chen Qingrong then realized slowly that his action of playing with his phone was a bit impolite, so he quickly put the phone in his pocket.
Really careless.
How can you keep playing with your phone while having a meal with your elders?
"Uncle, come, I'll toast you another glass!"
"Haha, okay, let's do it!"
……
Inside the Lip Charm couple theme restaurant.
Xiaoyuan wore a denim long skirt with canvas shoes and her hair was tied in a ponytail, making her look young and youthful.
But at this moment her little face was full of embarrassment.
Standing next to her was Liang Qingyun, who was wearing a designer suit and sprayed with high-end cologne. The faint fragrance stimulated her nostrils. Coupled with the melodious jazz music in the restaurant and his subtle yet fiery gaze, Xiaoyuan always felt uncomfortable all over.
"Mr. Liang, I'm sorry. I didn't know this was a couple-themed restaurant. It was all Brother Chen's fault. No, it was Mr. Chen who tricked me. He was the one who recommended this restaurant to me." Xiaoyuan tried to explain.
She didn't want Liang Qingyun to misunderstand her as a scheming woman.
After all, you agreed to treat someone to a meal, but ended up inviting them to a couple's restaurant. Any normal person would misunderstand, right?
But she didn't mean that at all!
Liang Qingyun's expression didn't change much, he just said calmly, "It's okay, it doesn't matter where you eat. If Miss Fang doesn't mind, we can eat here, is that ok?"
Since he said so, what else can Xiaoyuan say?
She could only laugh awkwardly and said, "Okay, then, I'll listen to you, please."
"please."
Liang Qingyun couldn't suppress his inner excitement and followed Xiaoyuan to the front desk.
They arrived at the front desk and told the table Xiaoyuan had reserved, then they sat down at a table in the back row near the window. There weren't many customers in the restaurant, so it seemed quite quiet.
After sitting down, the two began to order food, and there was not much conversation between them during the whole process.
"Mr. Liang."
"Ok?"
"This restaurant was really recommended to me by Mr. Chen." Xiaoyuan explained stubbornly.
Liang Qingyun laughed, "It's okay, Miss Fang, I didn't misunderstand. To be honest, this is my first time to eat at a restaurant like this. I'm very happy to be here with Miss Fang."
Xiaoyuan blushed and lowered her head to play with the spoon on the table.
Soon, the waiter served the meal.
While we were eating, the manager came over and said, "You two, our restaurant is holding a lucky draw. Are you interested in participating?"
Liang Qingyun asked, "How do I participate?"
The manager handed them two pens and two pieces of paper. "Please write down a two-digit number on the paper. We will randomly draw two of them. The winners will receive a mysterious prize."
Xiao Yuan asked curiously, "What is the prize?"
The manager smiled and said, "My lady, I told you it's a secret prize. It would be boring if I told you about it. You should be looking forward to it."
"Well, let's give it a try." Xiaoyuan took the paper and pen, "I've been pretty lucky lately. I can draw cards in minutes. Maybe I can win."
"Then let me try it too."
The two of them just wrote down a number and handed it to the manager.
About ten minutes later, the manager came over again with an excited look on his face. "Congratulations, you two have won a prize. You will receive a year's right to use any brand of Lanling sponsored by our restaurant. During this year, no matter how much you two use, it will be reimbursed by our restaurant. Congratulations."
puff.
Xiao Yuan sprayed the orange juice directly onto the empty plate in front of her. Her face turned red. "Ahem, wha-what?"
Thanks for the monthly ticket that floats like a cloud, thanks for the monthly ticket that is charming and intoxicating at night, thanks for the monthly ticket that is 20220511, thanks for the monthly ticket that is a breeze in the forest
