Chapter 689 Tao Leg Pendant
After returning to the villa, they rested and washed up, and then the five of them sat in the living room chatting and eating snacks.
Tao Siqi was almost sober and very hungry, so she roasted all the leftover ingredients from the afternoon barbecue in the oven and ate a piece of tiramisu, a piece of pizza, and a glass of juice. Her appetite was as huge as Tang Qi's.
Although Tao Siqi has a round and cute face, she is actually not fat at all. Her slim figure is completely disproportionate to her appetite.
Zhang Ke was shocked. "It's evening and you're still eating something so high in calories and sugar. Aren't you afraid of gaining weight?"
She achieved her current slim figure entirely through starvation.
Over the past year, she has been strictly following the weight loss philosophy of not eating after 6pm and not drinking water after 8pm. Even for the barbecue she had this afternoon, she had to eat vegetarian food for the next week to keep her weight under control.
Tao Siqi replied while eating, "We in sales work and we are always hungry and full. When we are busy, we can only eat bread. I finally took two days of annual leave to rest, so of course I have to eat enough."
Seeing that she had a good appetite, Tang Qi went to the kitchen and asked Dong Xiaoyu to fry some steak and ribs.
Hearing that there were steaks and ribs, Tao Siqi immediately put down the fruit in her hand and said, "I want to save my stomach for meat. Qiqi, why is your meat so delicious? I feel like I haven't eaten meat for 800 years."
Tang Qi explained with a chuckle, "The beef is specially ordered imported Australian beef, the pork and chicken are free-range Tibetan pigs and chickens raised on the farm down the mountain, and the seafood was freshly flown in from the dock to City B the night before. The ingredients are fresh, so the taste is naturally good."
Tang Qi said it lightly, but the three of them knew very well that such meticulous and grand preparations were enough to show how much Tang Qi valued and cared about them.
The three of them are no longer the naive girls they were two years ago. They have more or less witnessed the cruelty and reality of society, the complexity of human nature, and the intrigues among people. At this moment, it turns out that there is one person who has not changed and is still the same as before, treating them sincerely without asking for anything in return. The three of them are feeling a little emotional.
Tao Siqi's eyes were red again. Taking advantage of the alcohol that had not yet dissipated, she hugged Tang Qi and acted coquettishly, "Qiqi, how can you be so nice? Do you still need a leg pendant? Take me away."
Tang Qi raised her fair chin and chuckled, "We just happen to be short of one. You can think about whether you want to go to the imperial capital."
After these words were spoken, Tao Siqi, Zhang Ke and the others were stunned.
Tao Siqi's fair round face turned pink, "Qiqi, are you serious?"
"real."
Seeing the man's face darkening from the corner of her eye, Tang Qi calmly withdrew her hand, straightened Tao Siqi who was clinging to her, and let her lean on the sofa before explaining, "I was originally looking for a personal assistant. If you are interested, I can open a backdoor for you."
Tao Siqi was so happy that she was stunned. "Really? Really? I do, Qiqi, I do!"
Tao Siqi happily hugged her arm and shook it, "I'm serious, Qiqi, you can't go back on your word."
Tang Qi smiled, "Don't you even ask me what kind of salary I'll give you? You're doing pretty well at Henghua, and your income is pretty stable, why don't you consider it?"
Tao Siqi grinned like a 20-year-old fool, "Qiqi, you are so kind, you will never let me go hungry, no matter how much salary I get."
Given Tao Siqi's silly personality of happily helping others count the money even after being sold, she was the only one who could take the person in.
"I'm seriously looking for a personal assistant to help me with some personal matters. If you really have an idea, let's go to the study tonight to talk."
Tao Siqi nodded hurriedly, "Okay."
Dong Xiaoyu brought the fried steaks and ribs to everyone. Tao Siqi finally stopped picking on Tang Qi and turned his attention to eating the meat.
Li Shurong, who was always calm and reserved, suddenly said, "Qiqi, when I graduate, if I want to go to the capital, can I come to you?"
"sure."
Tang Qi thought about it and briefly told the three people about his entrepreneurial situation.
When Tao Siqi heard that it was her who invested in and saved Henghua Real Estate and that she held more than 50% of Henghua shares, the steak in her mouth fell to the ground with a plop.
"Qiqi, you are not kidding, right?"
Tang Qi glanced at the beef that fell on the ground and said, "You dropped 200 pieces on the ground."
Tao Siqi looked down at the half-palm-sized steak that fell to the ground and asked, "What 200 yuan?"
"Australian M9 Wagyu beef retails for 2,000 yuan per pound. The piece you dropped must be at least one or two ounces, and it's roasted, so it costs at least 200 yuan."
Tao Si immediately bent down, picked up the meat and put it into his mouth. He did it so fast that Tang Qi couldn't stop him in time.
Tao Siqi ate it with gusto, "No wonder it tastes so good, it turns out it tastes like RMB."
Tang Qi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Li Shurong was quite full, but when she heard that this was M9 Wagyu beef that cost 2,000 yuan per pound, she immediately picked up the plate and knife and fork.
Tao Siqi stretched out her hand to block the food, "Shurong, aren't you hungry?"
Li Shurong pushed away Tao Siqi's hand that was blocking the steak and said, "I'm hungry now."
"Didn't you eat a lot in the mountains?"
“I’m not full.”
Tao Siqi and Li Shurong were arguing about steak, and Zhang Ke was speechless and jealous.
The aroma of meat in the air was so strong that she was afraid she couldn't control her mouth, so she stood up and pulled Tang Qi upstairs.
Mo Shaochen originally planned to build this villa to live alone, so he didn't build too many guest rooms. Tao Siqi and the other two had to squeeze into her bedroom.
Originally, Tang Qi had arranged for Sister Liu to sleep with Luo Guihua tonight, and one of them could sleep in the guest room on the third floor. However, Tao Siqi and the other two were unwilling to do so.
Please...you...collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠBar (Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\Bar!)
Anyway, they were squeezing by themselves, so Tang Qi didn't force them.
Zhang Ke pulled Tang Qi into the house and took out a gift box wrapped in gold wrapping paper from the luggage bag.
"Qiqi, this is a gift from me to you. It's not very expensive. I hope you don't mind it."
"What nonsense."
Tang Qi took it with a smile, looked at it, and opened the outer wrapping paper. It was a rectangular black leather box.
Open the leather box, and inside are neatly arranged black tubes of Dior lipsticks.
Tang Qi counted them and found there were twelve.
The corners of her lips curled up into a smile, "Thank you, this is the first time someone has given me lipstick."
Zhang Ke was a little surprised, "Hasn't your boyfriend ever given it to you?"
Tang Qi humorously resolved the awkwardness, "Well, maybe he thinks the taste of lipstick is not very good?"
Zhang Ke was so amused that he chuckled, "That's right, after all, you are applying it externally, and he is taking it internally."
Tang Qi closed the lid of the lipstick box and was about to take it to the next bedroom when Zhang Ke suddenly said, "Put it here first."
"Why?"
Seeing Tang Qi raise an eyebrow in confusion, Zhang Ke smiled and said, "Si Qi and Shu Rong also have gifts for you. They match the gifts I gave you. You can take them back to your room when the time comes."
"That's fine."
Zhang Ke laughed and his expression became serious, "Qiqi, there is something I have been keeping in my heart. I didn't want to tell you at first, but I regret it now. I don't want to lose you as a friend."
