Chapter 284 Back and forth four times



Tao Shiming looked at Tao Bao and asked, "Will you come?"

"If he is busy, I can't be sure. After all, you just told me now. When I was in KING Group, Si Minghan's date was scheduled for a week later!" Tao Bao said calmly.

"Then call him after you have dinner," said Tao Shiming.

"knew."

Tao Chumo didn't eat, instead using her chopsticks to pick at a few vegetarian dishes in her bowl. She looked at Tao Bao with suspicion, "If Si Minghan cares so much about you, why doesn't he let you live in Hanyuan? Do you really have something that would require Si Minghan to preside over the ribbon-cutting ceremony?"

Tao Bao looked straight ahead and asked, "Did I say he would definitely come?"

Tao Chumo was speechless after Tao Bao's question.

"Since I live here, I am a member of your team. What's more, I have invested in the company, so it's normal for me to contribute a little. If you don't want me to talk to Si Minghan, why don't you go by yourself?" Tao Bao asked.

Tao Chumo's expression was not very cheerful. Even her anger did not change her delicate makeup for a moment. "Why are you so unsure? Why do you think Si Minghan will give up the development rights of the southwest area? Are you kidding us?"

Tao Bao glanced at Tao Shiming, with a soothing smile on his face.

"Tao Chumo, do you hope Si Minghan will give in? Or not?" Tao Bao supported his chin with one hand and looked at her leisurely.

Tao Chumo pretended to be serious, and her voice was flat. "Whether you give in or not depends on your situation."

"That's enough. I believe Xiaobao will try his best. We are a family and we should trust our family, right?" Tao Shiming came out to ease the atmosphere.

"I don't want to eat anymore. You guys take your time." Tao Bao threw down his chopsticks angrily and got up to leave.

Tao Shiming pushed his glasses and said helplessly, "What are you doing? Does the company still want Tu Tu to work? Why did I work so hard to coax her? Was it for myself? Once the goal is achieved, you can do whatever you want to her. You can even kick her out if you like!"

Tao Xuanmo sneered, "Does your own daughter know how insidious you are?"

Tao Shiming frowned, his eyes shone with a dark luster, but it quickly faded, leaving only helplessness. "I've been running back and forth in Kyoto, but for whom? In the end, the company is still yours? As for Chu Mo, didn't she marry Si Minghan in the end?"

These words softened Tao Chumo's facial features a little. After all, that was exactly what she wanted.

"Thank you so much for thinking about us." Tao Xuanmo said in a neutral tone.

"I'm planning for my son and daughter, what's wrong with that?" Tao Shiming asked matter-of-factly. "I don't have any other requests. When I'm old, you just take care of me!"

Tao Bao returned to his room, leaned against the head of the bed, and played with his cell phone.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

"Xiaobao, are you there?"

It’s Tao Shiming!

Tao Bao's hand holding the phone trembled violently, his knuckles turned white, and his breathing became short.

The body can't be afraid!

"Xiaobao, are you asleep?" Tao Shiming asked again when he heard no sound.

Tao Bao closed his eyes, trying his best to suppress the fear, "No."

"Dad has something to tell you. Is it convenient for you to come in?"

Tao Bao's breathing was unstable. What could be the matter? He was just asking about inviting Si Minghan to cut the ribbon for the company!

She relaxed her tense nerves, stood up, and walked over to open the door.

The door opened and Tao Shiming stood outside, asking with concern, "Aren't you hungry after eating so little? I'll ask the kitchen to make you something else. What do you want to eat?"

"No." Tao Bao blocked the door with his body, not wanting him to go in.

"Don't mind them. They just say it without thinking. But the company is about to open, and I don't know what will happen in the future. I'm a little anxious," said Tao Shiming.

"If you treat me sincerely, I will treat you sincerely as well."

"That's true. They're not as sensible as you." Tao Shiming paused and asked, "Did you call Si Minghan? What did you say?"

"He never answered the phone."

"He... didn't answer your call?" Tao Shiming looked at her suspiciously. "Xiaobao, you're not just trying to fool me, are you?"

Tao Bao looked at him calmly, "You don't believe me?"

"It's not that I don't believe you, but I think it's a bit too coincidental that he didn't answer your call?"

Tao Bao handed him the phone expressionlessly and said, "Look at the call log yourself."

Tao Shiming took the phone, clicked on 'Recent Calls', and saw the call record at the top with three words in the note - Si Minghan.

I made four calls, but no one answered.

I didn't expect it to be like this...

Tao Shiming was more cautious and called the number back directly.

Tao Bao was secretly shocked. He didn't expect Tao Shiming to do this!

Watching the number on the screen calling...

Tao Bao's body was tense and he was very nervous.

Because she didn't really call Si Minghan!

She would click on the call, then cancel, click on the call again, and cancel again. As long as she quickly canceled, Si Minghan wouldn't respond to the call. She didn't have to answer the call, as it would be recorded on her side.

Back and forth four times.

What if Si Minghan answered the call?

Tao Shiming also turned on the speakerphone. Once Si Minghan answered the call and said something, wouldn't it expose the bad relationship between her and Si Minghan?

The phone rang until it ended, but was not answered.

Tao Shiming laughed, "It seems that the phone really is not with me. If it is with me, it will be disconnected even if I don't answer it."

Tao Bao was very angry. He snatched his phone away and said indifferently, "Do you believe it now? Are you satisfied?"

Tao Shiming smiled insincerely, "I misunderstood you."

"Misunderstanding?" Tao Bao looked at him unhappily. "Are you this suspicious even when doing business with others? I bet every time I hear about your Southwest District affairs, you're suspicious of me, right? If that's the case, why did you threaten me with the video? Isn't that unnecessary?"

As he said that, he was about to slam the door.

Tao Shiming stopped him, "Wait, wait, Xiaobao, I was wrong. I will never doubt you again next time. I will completely trust you in every decision you make, okay?"

"That's the best! If it happens again, be careful that I will really treat you indifferently!" Tao Bao said with an indifferent expression.

"Hey, go to bed early. I think Si Minghan is busy. He will call you back when he sees the incoming call. I'll wait for your news."

Tao Bao didn't want to say anything and slammed the door shut without any courtesy.

After the door closed, Tao Bao walked back to the bed and sat down with a relaxed body.

However, Si Minghan did not answer the call.

But, is the phone really not with Si Minghan? There is nothing to doubt about this.

There are only two possibilities. One is that her cell phone is not there, and Si Minghan will eventually see it later. She doesn't know how he will deal with such a missed call; the other is that her cell phone is there, and Si Minghan will ignore her call.
