Li Qiang hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Ping, I'd rather stay in the internet cafe. I like playing games and the atmosphere here."
Tang Ping didn't stop him and agreed, "Alright, you decide for yourself. Ah Hui is the same; I had him drive."
After Li Qiang finished his negotiations, Tang Ping called his cousin Song Lili to his office.
"cousin."
"Sit down. I'm planning to have you study accounting so you can be in charge of the company's finances in the future. Are you willing?" Since they were all family, Tang Ping didn't waste any words and asked directly.
Song Lili thought for a moment and said, "I'll do whatever my cousin asks me to do. My mom said I should follow your instructions."
Tang Ping said, "Never mind your aunt. What I want to hear now is your own thoughts on what industry you like to work in. Let me tell you in advance, finance is a boring industry, but I need to hire people, and I definitely need people I can trust, which is why I'm having you study it."
This time, Song Lili did not hesitate and nodded, saying, "Cousin, I'm willing."
Tang Ping said, "Okay, I'll enroll you in a specialized class tomorrow. You can focus on your studies and get your degree while you're at it. These things will be useful for you in the future."
After arranging all that, the whole morning was gone.
Lin Yuan came looking for her. Tang Ping had originally intended to give her a day off, since she had just returned to Jinghai and wanted to reunite with her family, but Lin Yuan couldn't stay still.
“My parents are both at work, and I’m all alone at home. It’s no fun. Boss, I’ve checked with the car dealership. The latest Santana 2000 costs over 200,000 yuan, and the regular model costs 150,000 yuan. Which one should we order?” Lin Yuan asked.
Tang Ping said, "A car is fine as long as it's available. It doesn't need to be too expensive. We can negotiate the price of the 150,000 one. You can pick it up this afternoon."
He doesn't really have a strong preference for cars. The popular models on the market are mostly Santana, Xiali, Fukang, etc. His career is just starting out, and it's not time for him to pursue brand names yet.
"Boss, aren't you going yourself?" Lin Yuan asked in surprise.
Tang Ping waved his hand: "No need, I have something to do this afternoon. By the way, do you have a driver's license?"
"Of course, so where should I pick you up after I buy the car?"
"Maple Forest Garden".
Fenglin Yayuan is where Chen Shuting now lives with her son Bai Xiaochen; it's a high-end residential community.
As soon as Tang Ping reached the door, plainclothes police officers came over to question him: "What are you doing here?"
"Find someone," Tang Ping said directly.
"The person you're looking for isn't here. Go to another building."
“I was looking for Chen Shuting. I spoke to her on the phone, and she said she lives here.”
The plainclothes police officer looked somewhat helpless and walked to the side, seemingly to report the situation.
Soon after, An Xin and Li Xiang appeared, accompanied by several team members, looking ready to go.
But when he saw that it was Tang Ping, An Xin was stunned for a moment, and then ordered the other team members to withdraw.
"Why is it you? You've come to talk business with Chen Shuting? I seem to remember you two had a falling out before?" An Xin asked.
Tang Ping said, "We did have a bit of a grudge before. I run an internet cafe, and she sent people to open an internet cafe across the street to steal my customers. But that's in the past. It's better to resolve conflicts than to let them fester. Besides, her arcade and video game center were shut down, weren't they? I'm thinking of taking over her place and turning it into a KTV."
Li Xiang punched Tang Ping on the shoulder and laughed, "You're doing great! Your business is getting bigger and bigger. I heard you also have a soap factory in Mang Village?"
The two had a good relationship. Last time at Xiawan Fishing Ground, Tang Ping saved Li Xiang's life, so they weren't so formal with each other in private.
"Hey, just small-time stuff, enough to make a living."
Tang Ping pretended not to know anything and asked curiously, "By the way, I was wondering why. I called Chen Shuting to ask her to meet in person, but she was stammering. Now that we're at the door, there are plainclothes officers and the two of you. What's going on?"
"Chen Shuting....."
Just as Li Xiang was about to speak, An Xin nudged his shoulder and said, "It's nothing, we have a mission here, it's confidential. Didn't you want to see Chen Shuting? Hurry up and go up!"
"We can see each other now?" Tang Ping asked in surprise.
An Xin said, "Of course you can, go up quickly."
Seeing Tang Ping go upstairs, An Xin immediately became nervous and instructed the team members to take their positions and monitor the conversation between the two in Chen Shuting's room.
“Tang Ping has a good relationship with us, so he shouldn’t be involved, right? Besides, he’s different from Gao Qiqiang. He went to Kyoto a few days ago and wasn’t even there,” Li Xiang asked, puzzled.
An Xin said in a serious tone, "I know he saved your life, but a relationship is one thing, but coming to see Chen Shuting at this particular time definitely means there's something wrong."
Hearing this, Li Xiang immediately became displeased and said, "Don't bring this up, An Xin. I think the problem lies with you. So what if Meng Yu is close to him? That's your own doing. You don't have time for that girl, you can't give her a future, and you expect her to wait for you her whole life? Aren't you selfish?"
An Xin's expression changed. He grabbed Li Xiang's collar and said in an extremely serious tone, "Don't talk to me about personal matters while we're working. And Li Xiang, my relationship with Meng Yu isn't what you think. I've never said I wanted anything with her. She's just like a younger sister to me. So, it's her freedom to be with whomever she wants, understand?"
After saying that, An Xin let go and turned to arrange the work.
Watching An Xin's departing figure, Li Xiang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "You just brought this on yourself, you're just making a living!"
Tang Ping was still somewhat amazed when he saw Chen Shuting again in the living room.
Chen Shuting had long, wine-red hair and wore a purple dress that accentuated her curvaceous figure, making her even more sexy, especially her cleavage.
Fair-skinned, and unfathomably deep.
Sexy, aloof, and beautiful.
This is the feeling Tang Ping gets from Chen Shuting. Last time on Lovers' Street, Chen Shuting almost strangled Gao Qiqiang to death to avenge her husband, and the two only briefly met.
Chen Shuting leaned against the dining table, poured herself a glass of red wine, and said coldly, "Tang Ping, it seems there's nothing to talk about between us, isn't there? You took over the internet cafe I opened on Lovers' Street, and you also reported and shut down my game arcade and video game center. Now, you have no competitors."
This woman still holds grudges!
Tang Ping smiled and, without any hesitation, stepped forward and took a wine glass as well.
"What are you doing? This is high-end red wine, more than ten thousand yuan a bottle. Do you even know how to drink it?" Chen Shuting looked at Tang Ping in surprise, asking with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.
This guy is acting like he owns the place.
Tang Ping ignored her, poured himself a glass, and said with a smile, "Although I'm not very educated, I do know a little about red wine. Red wine is like a woman; you have to savor it slowly, and the more you savor it, the more flavorful it becomes."
Chen Shuting was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then looked at Tang Ping with interest and asked, "What kind of business do you want to discuss with me? Just say it."
