Si Yuanqi looked at her with a frown in his dark eyes. "Sit down."
Tao Chumo was not at all surprised that she was invited. She sat down at the seat opposite him and looked at Si Yuanqi with the confidence of a negotiator.
"I heard that Tao Bao is living in your house now. I guess you must have given her a hard time." Si Yuanqi said indifferently.
Tao Chumo hadn't expected him to ask this question, but she wasn't panicked. "You're overthinking it. In our family, everyone has to look after her. Even if she gets ahead of herself, no one dares to do anything to her because she has Si Minghan behind her. You can imagine the implications of this."
"Your eyes are Si Minghan, and Tao Shiming's eyes are obvious. I'm curious, why did Tao Bao come back to your house?"
"Perhaps Qiu Ciyan's death made her long for family affection even more!"
Si Yuanqi narrowed his eyes slightly and put his eyes on the wine glass.
Was she very sad at that time? The person who was with her was Si Minghan, right?
When he was in pain, she was also in pain.
They clearly needed each other, Si Minghan shouldn't have come in between...
"Cooperation is beneficial to both of us," said Tao Chumo.
"Tell me about your plan." Si Yuanqi said, staring at the wine glass.
"I'll create an opportunity for you and Tao Bao, let Si Minghan misunderstand, and then I'll get closer to Si Minghan. When a man's jealousy arises, it's easiest for others to take advantage of it." Tao Chumo's plan was definitely well-prepared.
It's impossible for Si Yuanqi not to know what this woman is thinking.
From the moment she appeared in front of him, he saw through her.
There was no way Tao Bao was trying to fool him with something as impossible as showing her photos.
But, being close to Tao Bao is very tempting...
It's attraction, but also hatred...
"How is it?" Tao Chumo asked.
"Will you give up halfway?" Si Yuanqi asked.
"I have liked setting goals for myself since I was a child. Once I have a goal, there is nothing I cannot accomplish," Tao Chumo said confidently.
If Si Minghan could become the 'target', he would have been riddled with holes long ago.
Si Yuanqi felt like he was watching a foolish person talking nonsense in front of him, and he felt that he should laugh at him.
But in the end he didn't do that. If someone was willing to die, there was no need for him to stop him!
"I'll think about it."
"I'll wait for your good news. Goodbye." Tao Chumo nodded politely, stood up, turned and left.
Si Yuanqi sat there, continuing to drink his wine and smoke his cigarettes, as if nothing had happened.
Tao Chumo returned home and just entered the room when She Huizi came.
"You're back early from your social outing." She Huizi helped her daughter pick up her handbag. "You've worked so hard! It would be great if you could marry into a good family and live comfortably as a wealthy young lady!"
Tao Chumo's expression remained unchanged. "Some people marry down, while others marry up. I don't want to be the woman who 'marries down'. Otherwise, I might as well stay the same."
"Are you referring to Si Minghan? Don't worry, he will definitely be the one you marry in the future!" She Huizi was very confident in her daughter.
Tao Chumo lowered her head and massaged her fingers. "I have nothing to worry about. I want you, and I will get you at all costs."
She was not worried that Si Yuanqi would refuse, unless this man was not interested in Tao Bao.
If it's boring, why would you drink alone in a bar, looking so lonely?
"I've never worried about you since you were little. Unlike your brother, he always annoys me."
Tao Chumo heard it and asked, "What happened to him?"
"It's still about the foreign trade company that Gu Che mentioned. He is firmly opposed to further cooperation. Your father called your brother and told him about it. You know your brother's temper, and they were almost quarreling. I saw that your father didn't look very good, so I knew what your brother said on the phone." She Huizi was helpless and embarrassed.
On one side is her son, and on the other side is her husband. She has paid too much to be with Tao Shiming, and now they are in trouble again.
"I know very well that your father has been tolerant and forgiving from the beginning to the end. He has said so much, why can't you truly accept him?" She Huizi said.
"If he doesn't accept it, can he enter the She family?" Tao Chumo said.
"I know. I think that since we're a family, we should act like one. I'm not worried about you, but your brother. He's always pushing me around, and sooner or later he'll suffer. He's going against Gu Che for a woman, but for the sake of the company's interests he has to be harmonious! Are you afraid you won't be able to deal with Gu Che in the future? I don't even take a small fry like Gu Che seriously. No matter how capable he is, he's still a dog to us." She Huizi sighed, "I'd better go and take a look myself!"
"Didn't he go there?" Tao Chumo asked.
Guilt flashed in She Huizi's eyes. "Forget it, I'll go there myself! Let him be busy here. After all, the subsidiary has just started and needs him to entertain people."
In fact, she had a plan in mind. She had to keep an eye on Tao Shiming's fickle mind. If she let Tao Shiming go to Bin, who knows if he would get together with that bitch again!
"By the way, when I'm not around, you should keep an eye on this side, especially your dad, okay?" She Huizi asked on behalf of her daughter.
"Are you tired of doing this?"
She Huizi sighed, "You'll understand when you get married. It's almost like a person is always worried about gains and losses."
"How can anyone compare to Si Minghan?" Tao Chumo said unhappily.
"Yes, yes, your Si Minghan is the most perfect man, right?" She Huizi said with a smile. "Women, once they fall in love, are like this. They like him so much that they see only his good qualities."
Tao Chumo's eyes were filled with ambition. What if Si Minghan didn't like her? That was just the present, there was still hope for the future! Even if she didn't like him for the rest of her life, it didn't matter. As long as she could marry him, she would be fine.
"And that Tao Bao, I always feel that she lives in our house for a purpose." She Huizi thought of this and said.
"I've thought about it, but it doesn't make sense. She says she wants our company, but with Si Minghan behind her, she can just snatch it away openly. Why go to so much trouble?" Tao Chumo analyzed.
"Even though I say that, I still have to be more careful!"
"Don't worry about this. Even if she has no eyes, I won't tolerate her." Tao Chumo's eyes were filled with hatred.
If Tao Bao wasn't still useful, how could he have tolerated her like this?
Anyone who dares to compete with her for Si Minghan's woman is her enemy.
After work, Tao Bao went back to Tao Shiming.
Before leaving, she sent a text message to Si Minghan, but he didn't reply, so he must be unhappy.
But she actually lived in Tao Shiming's house, and it was Si Minghan who allowed her to run back and forth, so why should she be unhappy?
If she doesn't know much about Tao Shiming, how can she deal with him?
The saying "No venture, no gain" is exactly like this.
She just wanted to see if She Huizi was still home.
