Chapter 410: We are still brothers, right? (10000)
We had dinner at Tang’s house in the evening.
Lin Yue asked the servants to buy eels and crabs in advance, so the dinner was quite rich.
Chen Qingrong also took a few photos and sent them to his mother. He learned this from Tang Xiaoru. After all, Xiaoru liked to do this.
After dinner, Chen Qingrong and Tang Chengshan went to the study to have a private chat, while Tang Xiaoru accompanied her mother to the room and went to the bedroom.
"Close the door." Lin Yue said.
Tang Xiaoru said "oh" and closed the door obediently, then asked tentatively, "Mom, you called me in secretly because you have something to tell me?"
Lin Yue rolled her eyes. "What do you mean by sneaky? We are in our own home. You are a top student, so why are you using such inaccurate words?"
Tang Xiaoru pouted, "Don't rush to correct me, tell me what's going on first."
"Of course I called you in because I have something to tell you." Lin Yue said as she walked to the cabinet. After opening the cabinet door, she opened one of the drawers inside and took out a passbook from the drawer.
She came back with the passbook and handed it to Tang Xiaoru, "Here, keep it."
"Why did you give me the passbook?" Tang Xiaoru took it and opened it, then gasped, "Hiss, five hundred thousand? Is this your private savings?"
Lin Yue said with a smile, "I hold the financial power of our family. Why would I need to save any private money? I have discussed this money with your father and I have taken it out to support you two."
Tang Xiaoru smiled helplessly, "Chen Qingrong and I are not so poor that we need your help."
"Who said we have to wait until you are poor before we can help you? If you really wait until you ask us for help, then we as parents will have failed in our duty." Lin Yue said carefully, "You two have been spending your own money since the opening of the company. You have hardly ever asked us for help. If a company wants to run for a long time, there are many places to spend money. How can you do it all by yourselves?"
"Take this five hundred thousand and add whatever you want. This is just a small encouragement from your father and I to you."
Tang Xiaoru joked, "Then you might as well just give me 10 million. This way Chen Qingrong and I can save money."
Lin Yue glanced at her and said, "Why not just buy your company and let you work for us? But are you willing to do that? If you were willing, you wouldn't have refused to work in our company. Isn't that for independence?"
It’s not that the old couple can’t afford 10 million. Let alone 10 million, they can afford any more.
The problem is, if they really gave her that much, Tang Xiaoru wouldn't want it.
Tang Xiaoru is a rather proud person. If she really wants to rest on her laurels, she can go straight back to her own company to be a general manager after graduating from university. Although her father is retired now, he still has almost absolute control over the company. Is it easy for him to make her the general manager?
The problem is that Tang Xiaoru doesn't want to do that.
She felt that if she just lay down as soon as she graduated, then all the years of studying would have been meaningless. It could really be said that all the books she read were wasted.
Therefore, Lin Yue and Tang Chengshan discussed it and decided to sponsor Tang Xiaoru and her husband by giving them pocket money.
After all, five hundred thousand is not a lot, but it is not a small amount either. This way, there is no need to worry about Xiaoru not wanting it.
After hearing what her mother said, Tang Xiaoru smiled, kissed her mother, and said, "I'll inherit the family business when I have children, get old, and don't want to struggle anymore. Thank you, mom. I'll take the money, hehe."
Lin Yue rolled her eyes at her, "So when are you planning to get married and have kids?"
Tang Xiaoru sighed helplessly, "Ah, why are you here again? Didn't we agree to wait? Chen Qingrong and I haven't even been together for a year, why are you in such a hurry?"
"You were the one who brought up the idea of having a baby, not me." Lin Yue retorted, and then said, "Besides, haven't you heard that saying? You should get married early. The longer you date, the lower the probability that the two people will eventually get married."
"You and Xiao Chen have been dating for three or four months, right? Getting married now and trying to get pregnant after a year, isn't this a perfect plan?"
"No, no." Tang Xiaoru shook her head vigorously and said faintly, "If I were to marry Chen Qingrong, it would be easy, but the problem is that I'm not ready to be a mother yet."
Lin Yue smiled, "What's there to prepare for? I didn't prepare myself to marry you. Women's maternal instinct is innate. Believe me, when you really get pregnant and have your own child, even if you didn't like children before, you will take care of him with your life. After all, he is a piece of your flesh and blood."
"If that's what you said, then why are there still so many women who are unwilling to get married and have children?"
"Those are all abnormal women. Which normal person doesn't get married and have children?" Lin Yue expressed disdain.
Tang Xiaoru didn't argue with her about this, and said, "Anyway, mom, please don't rush me. Chen Qingrong and I have a plan. When our careers are stable, we will talk about getting married and having children. Don't worry, I will not refuse to marry Chen Qingrong."
"Well, you've grown up and have your own ideas. I won't push you anymore. Anyway, you're better off now than when you were single. It's not bad when you think about it."
"right."
……
About forty minutes later, the couple drove away.
Chen Qingrong was drinking with his father-in-law again tonight, so the driving task was left to Tang Xiaoru.
Every time he came over for dinner, he had to drink with his father-in-law. Now that he thought about it, it was a good thing that he had worked hard to improve his drinking capacity during those years in Chenzhu, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to appease his father-in-law.
You have to know that some of the things that men say are bullshit.
They think that a man who doesn't smoke or drink is not a man at all. This type of man may become your father-in-law, your client, or even your biological father. Therefore, men still need to master some social skills.
You have to know how to drink alcohol and smoke cigarettes.
I don't know anything and can't make any progress.
"What did my dad call you to the study to talk about?" Tang Xiaoru turned her head and looked at Chen Qingrong and asked.
Chen Qingrong said casually, "We didn't talk about anything important. He just asked about the operation of our company and whether there was anything I could help with. I answered truthfully. Oh, by the way, the uncle also gave me a box of very expensive tea. Here it is."
As he spoke, he took out a box of tea from his pocket.
Tang Xiaoru took a look and smiled, "That's great. My dad's tea is extremely expensive. I can bring it to the company to entertain customers."
Chen Qingrong immediately said seriously, "No, this is given to me by my father-in-law. I want to keep it as a family heirloom and pass it down to our children in the future."
Tang Xiaoru's mouth twitched, "Aren't you afraid of getting moldy?"
Chen Qingrong said, "How could that be? Nv'erhong wine tastes better the longer it is stored. The same is probably true for tea. After storing it for a few decades, when our children grow up and get married, we can give it to them as a betrothal gift or dowry."
"Well, you're really thinking far ahead."
"I'm just imagining our future together. Haven't you ever thought about it?"
"Nonsense, if I hadn't thought about our future together, why would I be with you?" Tang Xiaoru curled her lips and continued, "Didn't I tell you before? When we raise our children and they can take care of their own lives, we will move to Dali. By then, we will walk hand in hand by the Erhai Lake every night. How romantic it will be."
Chen Qingrong put his hands behind his head and smiled, "It's really romantic. Young people are riding bicycles and ringing their bells, and we two old guys are walking back and forth on the sidewalk, randomly blackmailing a lucky person. This is romance."
"Go to hell!" Tang Xiaoru cursed with a smile, then paused and said, "By the way, when you and my dad went to the study, my mom also called me to the bedroom, and she also gave me a savings book with 500,000 yuan."
"Why did Auntie give you so much money?" Chen Qingrong was so scared that his eyes widened.
Tang Xiaoru said, "My mother said that this money was given to us as a reward after she discussed it with my father. It can also be regarded as a kind of financial support for us. After all, starting a company is too expensive."
"So do you want it?"
"Yes, why would I not want the money my own mother gave me?" Tang Xiaoru raised her head slightly. "Besides, we are indeed short of money now. It's not that we have no money, but the more money the better."
Chen Qingrong was deeply moved. "Our parents are so good to us. We must be filial to them in the future. A son-in-law is half a son. As a son, I will definitely take the responsibility of taking care of them in their old age."
Tang Xiaoru didn't know what she was thinking of, and she smiled, "Just come and run with my dad more often in the future, haha."
Chen Qingrong's forehead suddenly became black, he gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Hurry up and delete all the photos and videos of me running in your phone!"
He had flattered his father-in-law before, and was forced to wear the same pink yoga pants as his father-in-law to run. While running, Tang Xiaoru laughed so hard that she couldn't stand up straight.
Thinking about it now, I still feel so ashamed.
Tang Xiaoru suppressed her laughter and said, "I didn't take any photos. I really didn't take any photos."
Chen Qingrong said with a dark face, "Do you think I will believe your sophistry? You forgot to turn off the flash when you took the photo, and it flashed on my face!"
"Ahem, let's talk about it when we get back. Let's talk about it when we get back."
"you……"
Before Chen Qingrong could continue to educate Tang Xiaoru, his cell phone rang.
He took out his cell phone and checked the caller ID. "It was Sun Cheng who called me. Is this guy still awake so late?"
After answering the phone, "Hello, Lao Sun, you're not dead yet?"
"Thank you for your concern. I'm still alive." Sun Cheng smiled. "I just finished exercising. It feels so good. I'm in the ward. I'm not allowed to smoke afterwards, so I'll call you afterwards."
Chen Qingrong's face twitched, "Don't tell me everything. I'm not interested in the movement between you and Ni Shengnan."
"Just because you mentioned my company, I wanted to tell you."
"I didn't mention your company!"
"Then let me tell you." Sun Cheng laughed awkwardly. "I asked Shengnan to go back to Shanghai tomorrow. She's bored staying in Beijing anyway. She stays in the hotel every day and comes to me to pick up weeds in Egypt. I thought my company is still running, and the country can't be without a leader for a day. It won't work without someone in charge, so I asked her to go back to help me run the company."
Chen Qingrong hesitated for a moment, "You really trust her. I don't look down on her. The question is, does she have the ability to manage a company?"
Sun Cheng smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this. After I got into trouble, my father sent a senior from our company to manage my own company. Shengnan went back this time just to represent me and keep an eye on things. She doesn't have to do anything."
"Besides, when I chatted with her, I could tell she had her own ideas and business acumen. It would be good to train her."
"So Uncle Sun also agreed?"
"Well, my parents are turning a blind eye to what's going on between me and Shengnan, so as long as I don't go too far, they won't care."
Chen Qingrong just said "oh" and then said speechlessly, "Since you have already arranged it, why did you call me to tell me about it? You are not here to ask for my opinion, are you? Am I also a part of your play?"
Sun Cheng smiled obscenely, "That's not the case. I just want to ask you for a favor."
"explain."
"Didn't I ask you to help me design a program that time? Ahem, now it's at the end, the numbers won't go anywhere. So, can you help me expand the capacity?" Sun Cheng sounded a little embarrassed.
"What the hell?" Chen Qingrong was a little confused. "In the program I designed for you, the upper limit is 999. How long has it been since you broke this record? You really don't want kidneys anymore. What on earth do you eat to maintain your health?"
Chen Qingrong felt a little sour for a moment.
After all, Sun Cheng's physical fitness is so strong that even he has to look up to him.
Could it be that this guy used some special little pills?
Sun Cheng said a little embarrassedly, "It's not all about that incident. I also included other things, such as kissing and touching the genitals. If we only talk about the criticism, how could it be possible to break the limit so quickly? I'm not a superman, okay."
Chen Qingrong felt much more comfortable immediately. "That's good, that's good. I thought you had surpassed humans. This is easy. You don't need my help. Just log in to your personal account in the mini program and choose to clear the cache. It will be automatically cleared."
"Can't you help me expand it?"
"I don't have time. Clearing the cache won't take much of your time anyway. Just do it yourself."
"Okay, I'll hang up first. Shengnan will be back soon, and I haven't had my midnight snack yet."
"Well, take care of yourself."
Chen Qingrong hung up the phone.
Tang Xiaoru dared to speak, "What did you talk about with Sun Cheng? Why were you so startled just now?"
"Ah, it's nothing actually."
Chen Qingrong simply recounted what Sun Cheng had told him. As for the matter of breaking the upper limit, he was too embarrassed to mention it.
After listening to this, Tang Xiaoru smiled and said, "It seems that Sun Cheng and Ni Shengnan are really in love. They are starting to bring her into their family business. That's great."
Chen Qingrong nodded in agreement, "That's great. Sun Cheng has conquered this evildoer, Ni Shengnan. It can be said that he has gotten rid of harm for the people. At least, I have one less rival in love. When they get married, I will definitely give them a big red envelope."
Tang Xiaoru laughed dumbly and asked again, "Then what happened to you so startled just now? I heard you mentioned the program you designed for him? Is it the one you told me about before? Is there a problem?"
Chen Qingrong hesitated for a moment and said weakly, "You'd better not ask too much details, or you'll scold me for being a jerk again."
Tang Xiaoru sneered, "If I don't ask, I won't call you a lowly man? You are a lowly man in the first place."
Chen Qingrong, "..."
Well, I got scolded again.
After arriving home, Chen Qingrong went to take a shower first. When he came out, Tang Xiaoru had already changed into the same couple pajamas as him and threw his to him for him to change into.
"Speaking of which, these pajamas are quite warm to wear." Chen Qingrong touched the pajamas and said, "It seems that there is no need to turn on the air conditioner this winter."
Tang Xiaoru chuckled and said, "Even if I don't wear these thick pajamas, I won't turn on the air conditioner. At most, I'll just turn on the electric blanket."
"Electric blanket? Do you use an electric blanket every winter?"
"Yes." Tang Xiaoru poured herself a glass of boiled water and asked him, "Didn't you use it when you spent the winter by yourself before, husband?"
Chen Qingrong shook his head. "I don't dare to use it. I always feel that electric blankets are unsafe. What if I wet the bed? Wouldn't I be electrocuted to death?"
Tang Xiaoru looked at him with a helpless expression, "Brother, you are already so old, how could you wet the bed? I would rather believe that you left the money behind."
Chen Qingrong walked up to her, hugged her, and said seriously, "If we sleep together this winter, you'd better not use the electric blanket."
Tang Xiaoru raised her eyebrows and said jokingly, "Don't worry, even if you really wet the bed, it won't cause the electric blanket to short-circuit. Don't worry."
"I'm not afraid that I'll wet the bed, I'm afraid of you."
"Me? I don't play with fire before going to bed, how could I wet the bed?" Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes in disgust.
Chen Qingrong nodded seriously, "You will."
Tang Xiaoru moved her mouth and was about to say something, but suddenly she reacted and glared at Chen Qingrong viciously. Her whole face looked like it had been dipped in a big red dye vat. It was red all the time, and no trace of her original skin color could be seen.
"You damn hooligan!" She pushed Chen Qingrong away and glared at him.
She knew what Chen Qingrong meant.
Chen Qingrong pretended to be innocent, "How am I a hooligan? I was just kindly reminding you, I didn't say anything rude."
Tang Xiaoru glanced at him and was too lazy to respond.
We're not in bed, so this topic isn't suitable to be discussed any further.
"Do you want to have a midnight snack?" Tang Xiaoru changed the subject and hugged Chen Qingrong's waist and started to act coquettishly.
Although Chen Qingrong is not particularly diligent since he started working out, his muscle growth is relatively fast because his body fat percentage is not very high and he just tends to gain weight in his belly.
Before, he had a bigger belly, but his overall body was thin. Now, his belly is smaller, but his overall body is broad, especially his waist and shoulders. Although he is not as strong as a bear, it is very difficult for Tang Xiaoru to hug him easily with both hands.
Having said that, if a man is really thin enough that a woman can easily hug his waist with both hands, then this man is too useless, with a classic spirited young man's body.
Chen Qingrong squinted at her, "Didn't you eat enough at your parents' house?"
Tang Xiaoru stuck out her tongue and shook her head, "That's not the case. I'm at my own parents' house and I can't lie. I'm just greedy and want to have a little more supper."
"So what do you want to have for supper?" Chen Qingrong had already started taking out his cell phone.
"Then will you eat?"
"You've eaten it all. If I didn't eat, you would definitely scold me for deliberately indulging you and watching yourself get fat." Chen Qingrong said very experiencedly.
Since he started living with Tang Xiaoru, it was usually Tang Xiaoru who took the initiative to ask for midnight snacks.
And this woman is very strange. At the beginning, she would not take the initiative to ask for a midnight snack. Maybe she was too embarrassed to do so. She just kept asking Chen Qingrong if he was hungry and whether he wanted to eat. As long as Chen Qingrong said he didn't want to eat, Tang Xiaoru would be a little disappointed.
Later, Chen Qingrong grasped the trick. In fact, it was Tang Xiaoru who wanted to eat it, but she was too embarrassed to say it.
Moreover, she couldn't eat by herself. She had to let Chen Qingrong eat with her every time. In her words, this made her feel less guilty. After all, if they were going to get fat, they would get fat together. Moreover, if she really got fat, she could find a reason to blame Chen Qingrong for not stopping her. No matter how she thought about it, she would not suffer any loss.
Tang Xiaoru looked away guiltily, "What are you saying? Am I the kind of person who forces you to have a midnight snack? I'm very democratic, okay? If you don't want to eat, then don't eat."
"Eat, eat, I want to eat too."
"Then carry me to sit on the sofa first."
"OK."
Chen Qingrong picked up Tang Xiaoru and sat her on the sofa. He let Tang Xiaoru sit on his lap, and he hugged Tang Xiaoru's slender waist.
"What do you want to eat?" Chen Qingrong opened Meituan and asked her.
Tang Xiaoru took his phone and started looking for it. After a round of selection, she finally made her choice.
Hamburger Coke.
"You're going to eat this?" Chen Qingrong was a little surprised. "I thought you would eat some meat."
Tang Xiaoru shook her head. "I ate a lot of meat at my parents' house tonight. I don't want to eat meat now. Besides, I seem to be a little constipated. Eating a hamburger may help."
Chen Qingrong laughed, "Then we should order Wallace. KFC's burgers don't seem to have that function, right?"
Tang Xiaoru casually said, "It's all the same. Come to think of it, I rarely had constipation before. I don't know what's going on. I've been a little constipated recently. Am I getting angry?"
As Chen Qingrong was paying the bill, he gave her some advice, "If you want to have diarrhea, I have a way. Use your fingers to dig your belly button hard, and you will definitely have diarrhea the next day."
"I did this when I was a kid, and it worked."
Tang Xiaoru frowned and refused decisively, "I don't want to hurt myself like that. If I really want to be that efficient, I might as well go to the hospital and buy some croton seeds."
"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. The takeaway will be delivered soon. It's disgusting to talk about this before eating the takeaway."
"You were the one who brought it up first!"
knock knock.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
The young couple were a little surprised.
Chen Qingrong looked at the takeaway interface and said, "No, buddy, it was delivered right after I ordered it? Doesn't it show that the rider just accepted the order?"
"It's not the rider, it's probably someone else." Tang Xiaoru was a little nervous, "Do you think there might be a murderer with a chainsaw outside?"
Chen Qingrong was speechless. "You must have watched too many movies. Go to the bedroom first. I'll go over and take a look."
"Okay, then be careful."
Tang Xiaoru didn't really want to be seen by people outside in the middle of the night. It wasn't that what she was wearing was inappropriate or unpresentable. This feeling might only be understood by women who have lived alone.
Seeing Tang Xiaoru enter the bedroom, Chen Qingrong stood up and walked to the door and looked through the peephole. He found that the person standing at the door was an aunt in pajamas.
He opened the door halfway and asked tentatively, "Hello? What's up so late?"
The aunt looked at him and said, "Hello, young man. I am your neighbor downstairs. It's so late at night. Do you have children running around? My son is going to take the postgraduate entrance examination this year. He studies late at night every day. It's not good for you to be so noisy. Can you lower your voice?"
Chen Qingrong was stunned for a moment, and quickly said, "Auntie, you misunderstood, we don't have any children."
"Ah? No children?"
"Yes, my wife and I haven't had a baby yet. We just got home. Look, I just changed into my pajamas."
"Where did those footsteps of a child come from? I heard them very clearly. The footsteps were very urgent, and they were running around. Also, there was the crying of a child." The aunt scratched her head.
Chen Qingrong thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you go upstairs and have a look. Maybe that's the sound coming from upstairs."
"You mean upstairs in your house?"
"Yes, we don't have children at home, so it could only be upstairs. I guess the sound insulation is not that good." said Chen Qingrong.
The aunt thought about it, nodded, and left.
Chen Qingrong closed the door and walked back to the living room.
Tang Xiaoru then walked out of the bedroom and asked him what was going on, and Chen Qingrong told her his aunt's purpose.
Tang Xiaoru was a little puzzled. "Logically speaking, if she really heard the sound of a child crying or running around, it could only be our house. After all, the sound insulation on the upper floors shouldn't be so poor."
"But, we don't have any children."
Chen Qingrong analyzed, "It is also possible that this aunt is worried about whether her child can be admitted to graduate school. She is very sensitive all day long, so she has auditory hallucinations."
"Audio hallucination?"
"Yeah." Chen Qingrong cleared his throat and began to sing, "Nowadays, I always feel lost when listening to songs alone. I hear you whispering in my ear, how gentle the night is, and how much you love me~"
Tang Xiaoru, "..."
"Haha, what a cold joke." Tang Xiaoru laughed angrily, and expressed serious protest to his behavior of singing loudly everywhere, "Don't scream and howl in the middle of the night, otherwise that aunt will come back to find us again."
However, Tang Xiaoru's worries were obviously in vain.
Even after the takeaway was delivered, the aunt still didn't come.
The young couple happily finished two burgers and drank two glasses of iced cola. After Tang Xiaoru took a shower, she went to bed and hugged Chen Qingrong to sleep.
Of course, there are also scenes of banging and banging on the wall.
It has become a habit.
The next day, Chen Qingrong was sleeping in a daze and was woken up by Tang Xiaoru.
"Husband, husband, wake up, wake up, there is an accident in the toilet, there is an accident in the toilet." Tang Xiaoru looked very anxious.
Chen Qingrong rubbed his sleepy eyes and said, "Could it be that you blocked the toilet when you went to the toilet?"
Tang Xiaoru blushed and spat, "Bah, what? Our faucet is broken and water is flowing out."
"what?"
Chen Qingrong was startled and quickly got out of bed, put on his slippers, and ran to the bathroom. He found that the faucet switch against the wall was broken. A lot of water had flowed onto the bathroom floor. Tang Xiaoru was using a basin to collect the water, and water was still leaking out of the faucet.
"How did you do that?" Chen Qingrong was a little confused. "Although this faucet is not made of iron, it shouldn't be so fragile, right?"
Tang Xiaoru stamped her feet, and her slippers made a splashing sound against the water. "I didn't use any force. I've been using this faucet since I moved in, and I never thought it would break."
Suddenly, she realized, "Oh, right, let's go to and find a technician to repair it."
"No need." Chen Qingrong held her hand and pointed to the dim sky outside the window. "What kind of repairman can you find to come and repair it at this time? Besides, if you find a repairman from 58, it will cost at least or yuan, which is too expensive."
"We can just go to the hardware store today and buy a faucet and install it. It won't cost much."
Tang Xiaoru asked, "What if the water keeps flowing?"
Chen Qingrong looked at her in surprise, "Don't you know that you can turn off the sluice gate?"
"Water gate? Is there such a thing?" Tang Xiaoru was a little confused.
Chen Qingrong grinned happily, "You are such a silly beauty, come with me, our sluice gate is outside the corridor next to the fire pipe."
As he spoke, he took Tang Xiaoru, opened the door and went to the corridor outside, where they found a closed iron box on the wall. After opening it, they found the separate sluice gate for Tang Xiaoru's family.
Chen Qingrong twisted the knob with all his strength, and Tang Xiaoru keenly heard that there was no more sound of running water in the house.
"Is this good?"
"Okay, the water won't flow."
Chen Qingrong nodded, then pulled her into the room and closed the door.
He was very curious, "Wife, don't you know there is such a thing as a sluice gate?"
Tang Xiaoru shook her head awkwardly, "I've never encountered such a situation before, so I really don't know, am I stupid?"
Chen Qingrong said seriously, "If you were ugly, I would definitely say you were a fool, but fortunately, you are as beautiful as a fairy, so I can only use words like stupid fairy, silly and cute to describe you."
Tang Xiaoru seemed to be very pleased with it, and pouted her lips, "I knew that being pretty has its advantages, hehe."
However, she thought of another problem. "The sluice gate has been closed. Will we be unable to brush our teeth and wash our faces later? But it's okay. We have face towels and mouthwash at home. It's not a big problem."
"Yeah." Chen Qingrong looked at the clock on the wall and exclaimed, "It's only five o'clock. Why did you get up so early today? Do you really have diarrhea?"
Tang Xiaoru shook her head and said softly, "No, I just got up to relieve myself and turned on the faucet. I saw that the mop was a little dirty, so I wanted to rinse it, but I didn't expect that I would break it directly."
Chen Qingrong took a deep breath, "Hiss, what species of aliens have possessed you? My wife should be a weak woman who can't even unscrew the cap of a mineral water bottle, how come she suddenly became so powerful?"
"Come here quickly, what is your purpose in replacing my wife?"
Tang Xiaoru smiled evilly, "It's because you are so arrogant that I started to have evil thoughts. Now that you have discovered it, I don't want to hide it anymore. Come, play with me!"
"No, no!"
While Chen Qingrong was wailing, he was taught by Tang Xiaoru.
Just life experience.
……
When he arrived downstairs at the company in the morning, Chen Qingrong happened to meet Gao Qiang running quickly from the bus stop.
He just called out, "Gao Qiang."
When Gao Qiang saw them, he was stunned for a moment, then ran over and bowed to greet them, "Hello, Mr. Tang, Hello, Mr. Chen."
Chen Qingrong deliberately picked on me, "I was the one who called you first, why did you call Mr. Tang first? Do you look down on me?"
Gao Qiang smiled awkwardly, "Ha, don't be so fussy about such trivial matters. Have you eaten yet? I'll treat you to pancakes."
Chen Qingrong shook his head. "No, we have all eaten. If you haven't eaten yet, go buy some food. We'll go upstairs first."
"Mr. Chen." Gao Qiang suddenly pulled him aside, looked at Tang Xiaoru's expression, and said weakly, "Well, can I talk to you alone? Not as a boss and an employee, but as a friend to a friend."
Tang Xiaoru said sensibly, "I'll go up first."
"Take care, my dear." Chen Qingrong let go of her hand and let her walk into the company. Then he said to Gao Qiang, "Talk about it. As long as you don't borrow money, everything is fine."
Gao Qiang hesitated for more than ten seconds before finally saying, "Well, Lao Chen, I want to quit after this month, is that ok?"
Chen Qingrong had never expected him to say that. He was stunned for a moment before asking, "Are you unhappy because I fired you?"
Gao Qiang shook his head vigorously. "No, no, of course not. I was stupid. They deserve to fire me. Why should I be unhappy? I just want to find another place to develop."
"You're going out of town?"
“That’s not it either.”
"So you have found your next employer? Who poached you?" Chen Qingrong's words were sharp and to the point.
Gao Qiang didn't dare to look him in the eye and smiled bitterly, "Stop asking, okay? I know it's a bit unkind of me to get out of the business halfway in the early stages of starting a business, but I also have my own difficulties, so you just..."
Seeing that he was in a dilemma, Chen Qingrong hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, if you don't want to talk about it, then I won't embarrass you. However, according to the company's regulations, you must apply for resignation 20 days in advance. How about this? I will get special approval from the Human Resources Department for you, and you can leave after this month."
Gao Qiang seemed to be relieved. "Oh, thank you, Lao Chen. Then we can still be brothers from now on, right?"
Chen Qingrong laughed and patted his shoulder. "Look at what you said. How can we not be brothers just because we are not working together? This little thing will not affect our friendship. If you can't work elsewhere, you can always come back to me. There will always be a place for you in Chen Tangguan."
"I feel relieved when you say that. Then I'll treat you to pancakes?"
"I really don't want to eat it. I ate it at home this morning. Go buy some. I'll go up first."
"Okay, I'll go first then."
"Ah."
Gao Qiang turned around and ran to buy pancakes.
Chen Qingrong took a deep look at his back, and an indescribable sharpness flashed in his eyes.
After arriving at the company, Chen Qingrong was not in a hurry to find Tang Xiaoru to talk about this matter. After all, the day was long and there were plenty of opportunities to talk about it.
Tang Xiaoru held a meeting in the morning and talked about the progress of the next tasks to be tackled. After this meeting, there was no need to hold the summary meeting on Friday afternoon. Anyway, the weekly summary meeting could not be avoided.
After the meeting, Chen Qingrong took Xiaoyuan to the construction site. Liang Qingyun was not there today, which made Chen Qingrong a little regretful.
Because he was not there, Chen Qingrong had no chance to tease him about his relationship with Xiaoyuan.
"Brother Chen, be careful!" Xiao Yuan shouted at this time and pulled away Chen Qingrong who was distracted.
With a clang, a brick fell exactly where he had just stood.
Chen Qingrong looked back at the shelf above his head with lingering fear, and quickly pulled Xiaoyuan away.
"Xiaoyuan, thank you for what I did just now. I owe you one." Chen Qingrong patted his chest.
Xiao Yuan said, "You're welcome, Brother Chen, but why are you suddenly in a daze? What are you thinking about?"
Chen Qingrong thought about it and decided to tell her, "Gao Qiang told me downstairs in the company this morning that he would quit after this month. Although he didn't say it clearly, I could tell that he was poached."
"Ah?" Xiao Yuan was startled, and then said angrily, "How could Brother Qiang do this? When you told Mr. Tang that you wanted to start a company, you called us over right away, gave us a salary higher than Chen Zhu's, and made him the team leader of the new media department. Is he leaving just because you removed him from his position?"
Chen Qingrong waved his hand. "I believe he is not that kind of person. I guess he would have left a long time ago. After all, poaching people is not something that can be finalized after one or two private contacts."
"It's okay. Everyone has their own aspirations. Let him go if he wants to. Even if he leaves, the company won't fall apart."
Xiao Yuan was silent for more than ten seconds, then said seriously, "Brother Chen, don't worry, I will never leave. No matter who comes to poach me, I will always follow you and Mr. Tang. I promise."
Chen Qingrong smiled, "Do you think I told you this because I'm worried that you'll leave? No, Xiaoyuan, I know you won't leave. Even if you really want to leave one day, I won't blame you. Don't feel any psychological pressure."
"I won't leave, even if you give me 1 billion yuan."
"Well, then give me one billion, and I'll leave."
"..."
Xiaoyuan suddenly didn't want to chat with him anymore.
At this time, Chen Qingrong received a strange phone call.
"Hello, who are you?"
"Brother Chen, I'm Ni Shengnan. I just got off the high-speed train. I'm worried it will be hard to get a taxi later. Can you come to the high-speed train station to pick me up?"
"I'll pick you up? That's not a good idea."
"But I have something very important here that Cheng Cheng asked me to bring you."
