Chapter 217: Impatient



"This is my second time coming in!" Wei Wenjie said with emotion.

"Why?"

"Because that Zhou Paopi didn't let us in before!" I get angry when I talk about this. He won't let anyone in no matter what. I heard that you have to bring gifts to enter.

"It's okay, you can come now because you have something important to do."

Wei Wenjie nodded and said, "I really didn't expect that I could get him in this time. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to get in either."

"You also made an effort so that we could come in."

Wei Wenjie grinned foolishly when he heard her words.

Tian Xiaolan glanced at the roadside and walked towards the office building.

She climbed up the stairs and arrived at Director Shi's office. Just as she was about to raise her hand to knock on the door, she saw Director Shi coming out with his glass. When he saw her, he was stunned for a second.

"Why are you here so early? Qiaoqiao said you were coming yesterday, so why didn't you wait for me?"

"I'm just afraid that staying too long will make people think too much."

Shi Shichang said bluntly: "The innocent are innocent. Why are you afraid of their gossips? If you are afraid of those gossips, I will look down on you."

Tian Xiaolan nodded: "I will definitely stay longer next time!"

Seeing how quickly her attitude changed, he was quite satisfied. "That's right! Your sister Zhou likes you very much. Go visit her more often."

Zhou Qiaoqiao faced those difficult patients in the hospital. Finally, there was someone who made her feel good and he would try his best to help her.

"Okay, I'll definitely go."

"You guys go sit inside first, I'll go get some water and be back." After saying this, Shichang walked downstairs.

Tian Xiaolan went in first, looked at the bookshelf, which was basically filled with documents, and then sat there waiting for him to come back.

Wei Wenjie saw her sit down and sat down beside her. He asked in surprise, "Xiaolan, why are you so close to him?"

He called Xiaolan again, but Tian Xiaolan didn't want to say anything more. He had his own ideas.

Tian Xiaolan: "We saved him last time and made him remember me. Do you have any objections?"

"No, it just felt like he didn't even see me."

Tian Xiaolan noticed that he looked a little uncomfortable, so she thought of a way for him: "Walk behind me, he won't see you. Then stand next to me, he will definitely see you."

"That's great." Wei Wenjie listened to Tian Xiaolan. He felt that what she said somehow made him believe that it would definitely be effective.

So he stood next to Tian Xiaolan, waiting for Shi Shichang to come back. After a while, he brought back a cup of boiling water.

Seeing that Tian Xiaolan had sat down comfortably and put the water on the table beside her, he walked to the desk and sat down. He saw a person standing there blankly, and it was hard not to pay attention.

"I've seen you before. You saved me last time. Thank you so much. I've been so busy lately. How's your business going?"

Wei Wenjie looked at him and really made him notice: "I just can't stand him being a good guy. My business is doing well now that it's hot, but unfortunately my dad doesn't believe that I saved you and says that I was fooling around outside!"

Shi Shichang understood what he meant and didn't mind helping him prove it: "I'll go to your house after get off work and tell you that you're doing good things, not fooling around!"

Tian Xiaolan also felt that when she first met him she thought he was a little gangster, but she didn't expect that after getting to know him, he was more like a child.

"My dad is not at home. Come back in a few days."

"good."

"Why haven't they come yet?" Wei Wenjie waited for a few minutes and then wandered around the door, looking down from time to time.

"You guys came too early. I made an appointment with them at nine o'clock." Shi Shichang glanced at his watch. "It's only eight ten now. If you have nothing to do, you can read a book."

"No need." Wei Wenjie waved his hand and asked Tian Xiaolan, "I see your mouth is a little dry, I'll go get you a glass of water!"

"I have an extra cup here, please wash it." As he said that, he took out a glass from under the cabinet.

Wei Wenjie took it and went downstairs.

Tian Xiaolan shook her head and said, "He's just impatient, don't bother with him!"

"Why would I bother with a child? Do you have enough money?"

Tian Xiaolan asked him: "I have 1,300 in my hand, do you think I can get it?"

"It's a bit difficult!" Shi Shichang knew that the two people who were interested in buying had some savings, and Tian Xiaolan's might not be enough.

Tian Xiaolan sensed from his words that it must be a very difficult task. "It's okay. If I can't get it, I can sell it on the street."

Mobile vendors are also good, but it takes a lot of time to go back and forth.

Shi Shichang heard her say that she was going to set up shop at the stall. If Zhou Qiaoqiao knew about this, she would definitely not let him go to bed.

"Wait for me, I'll be back soon." He said this and went out.

After going out, Shi Shichang went to the next door, which was the mayor's office. Xiang Ming sometimes stayed here when he didn't go home.

"Xiang Ming, get up. I have something to talk to you about. Open the door!" Shi Shichang knocked on the door loudly.

Tian Xiaolan waited for him to leave and took a book from the bookshelf out of boredom to read.

Here, the morning sun had not yet fully spread over the earth. Xiang Ming was immersed in a sweet dream, but was suddenly awakened by a rapid knock on the door.

He was sleepy and looked impatient, muttering, "What's the matter so early in the morning?" While rubbing his eyes, he slowly got up and opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, Shi Shichang rushed in, not caring that Xiang Ming was not fully awake yet.

Shi Shichang picked up a glass of water from the table, handed it to Xiang Ming, and said, "Drink some water quickly to wake up."

Xiang Ming took the water dazedly and took a sip. His eyes were still a little dull as he asked, "Why did you come to me so early to ask for money? Did your wife find out about your hidden money?"

Shi Shichang rolled his eyes at him and said, "Go away! I wish I had some private money. Do you still remember Tian Xiaolan? She wants to buy the Garden Hotel, but she doesn't have enough money right now. Just give her whatever you have."

When Xiang Ming heard this, he was a little confused. He scratched his head and said, "I believe her when she said this. She saved my life." As he said that, he walked to the cabinet and began to search.

After a while, Xiang Ming took out a few bills from the cabinet, counted them together, and found that there was only 75.2 yuan.

He said helplessly: "This is all I have, and it's still not enough."

Seeing this, Shi Shichang went to his pillow and rummaged around without saying a word. Sure enough, he found several hundred-yuan bills. He left the change to Xiang Ming and said, "Leave these small changes to you. I'll take the big ones. We'll count them later and have her write you an IOU later."

Xiang Ming looked at Shi Shichang's departing back, was stunned for a while, and finally turned back to bed, ready to take another nap.

But he lay in bed and couldn't fall asleep, thinking that it shouldn't be that easy for Tian Xiaolan to buy the Garden Hotel, otherwise she wouldn't have asked him to borrow money.
