Chapter 368 Beautiful Fireworks
"Brother Tao, Sister-in-law Tao, what a coincidence!"
Wan Qiqi tilted her head to look at the handsome man and beautiful woman in front of her, and Tao Xiujin, whom they were holding hands with.
Tao Ran changed his usual style, donning a plain-colored satin robe with a dark bamboo leaf pattern, the perfectly fitted waist belt making him appear tall and slender.
Luo Lan wore a light blue long dress, paired with pearl hairpins and jewelry, exuding the air of a noblewoman.
Even a glimpse from afar reveals their noble air, setting them apart from ordinary people.
"Qiqi, it's been a long time," Luo Lan said gently.
Immediately, she let go of Tao Ran's hand and walked up to Wan Qiqi. "I've heard that you often help out in the kitchen. I know a shop that sells beauty-enhancing products. If you have time, I'll take you there."
Wan Qiqi was taken aback, never expecting Luo Lan to be so familiar with her.
However, when she met his gentle eyes, she felt even more favorably toward Luo Lan and smiled, "Okay, I'll come find you when I have time."
Although Luo Lan did not get involved in business matters and often stayed at home, she still interacted with the ladies of various families and had a wide network of connections.
Wan Qiqi knew that no matter where you were, connections were the most important thing.
Since she has chosen to do business, she cannot only deal with ordinary people, but must come into contact with a wider range of people.
The two walked and talked, with Tao Ran following behind, her eyes never leaving Luo Lan.
His eyes held a hint of grievance, as if he had been abandoned.
Tao Xiujin raised his eyes and glanced at Tao Ran indifferently, and said, "Father, why are you somewhat jealous of Mother's good relations with others?"
Tao Ran glanced at him with lowered eyes and said, "If your precious treasure were taken away, how could you remain calm?"
“You said that one should remain calm and composed in all things and never lose one’s gentlemanly demeanor,” Tao Xiujin said.
The two of them getting along is like an old-fashioned person meeting a young, conservative person.
"Haha... Brother Tao, you've finally met your match!" Wan Ziyan pursed his lips, trying to suppress a laugh, but couldn't help it and laughed a few more times.
Tao Ran's face darkened, and he said, "Brother Ziyan, how come you are becoming more and more unruly?"
He almost thought the person laughing wasn't Wan Ziyan, but someone else!
"As Qiqi said, why should people be so self-restrained? They should relax when they should." Wan Ziyan's smile grew even brighter, his eyes curving like crescent moons.
Tao Ran didn't reply immediately, but instead glanced at the two people in front of her, "Both of you have become Qi Qi's slaves?"
"Isn't Brother Tao also a henpecked husband?" Wan Ziyan said without any hesitation.
As far as he knew, Tao Ran was terrified of Luo Lan.
In front of Luo Lan, the teacher almost dared not breathe.
However, there are also times when they are hypocrites...
The three walked forward side by side.
In front of them were children playing together, and further ahead were Wan Qiqi and Luo Lan.
Wan Qiqi realized that it wasn't that she wasn't interested in waiting, but rather that she wasn't interested in a person waiting.
With the company of her family and friends, she had a wonderful time and almost forgot to go back to the restaurant.
At the entrance of Xinglong Restaurant.
Tao Jing pulled Chen Yongliang to an open space and said, "I'll show you something good that you've definitely never seen before."
Chen Yongliang glanced back at the restaurant to make sure there were no more customers before he felt relieved and asked doubtfully, "I don't believe there's anything I haven't seen before."
He believed that he had become much more knowledgeable and experienced after doing business with his sister-in-law, and was no longer the same Chen Yongliang!
With a loud "bang," a magnificent flower suddenly bloomed in the sky.
It is like a star that suddenly lights up, illuminating the night, and then disappears in an instant.
Then another sound, blooming again, then extinguishing.
Chen Yongliang was deeply attracted to it and couldn't take his eyes off it.
Seeing his infatuated look, Tao Jing laughed and said loudly, "I bet you've never seen this before. My dad spent a lot of money to buy these fireworks."
Chen Yongliang had never seen such beautiful fireworks before.
Fireworks were almost unattainable for the poor.
He had only seen firecrackers once before, at his elder brother's wedding.
Even my second brother's wedding was celebrated with firecrackers; we couldn't afford firecrackers.
He had never seen such dazzling fireworks before.
"So beautiful!" Chen Yongliang murmured.
When he becomes rich in the future, he will not only set off firecrackers but also fireworks for his wedding, giving the most beautiful gift to the person he loves most!
Tao Jing tilted her head and stared at Chen Yongliang, cursing him inwardly as a fool who had never seen anything like this before.
Another pang of heartache shot through my heart.
She used to think that what she had, others also had.
But after meeting Chen Yongliang, she realized that some of the things she disliked were things that others might not be able to obtain even if they tried their hardest.
She saw something different in Chen Yongliang, and she also saw his stubbornness.
When Wan Qiqi rushed back to the restaurant, she not only saw the fireworks, but also Tao Jing and Chen Yongliang standing in the open space.
She could tell that it wasn't just Chen Yongliang who had a crush on her; Tao Jing also had feelings for Chen Yongliang.
The fireworks faded, and darkness returned to the horizon.
Wan Qiqi walked towards the two of them and said, "Xiao Jing, you've finished watching the fireworks. If you don't go home now, your brother will find out and you'll be in big trouble!"
"Sister Qi," Tao Jing called out obediently, then whispered, "My sister-in-law let me out, and my brother didn't dare to say anything to me!"
With a "hiss," Wan Qiqi burst out laughing.
Tao Ran's henpecked status is now confirmed!
"Alright, head back early." Wan Qiqi glanced at Chen Yongliang and said, "After you take Xiaojing home, go straight home. You don't need to come to the restaurant!"
"Okay," Chen Yongliang replied, and led Tao Jing away.
Wan Qiqi stared at their backs for a while before entering the restaurant, where she bumped into Zhu Chengye.
"Why are you back?" Zhu Chengye asked, puzzled.
"When we get back, let's pay the restaurant staff." Wan Qiqi smiled and tilted her head, saying, "Everyone was busy today and couldn't reunite with their families to enjoy the lanterns. How about we give each staff member fifteen coins?"
