My friend's uncle took a fancy to me

Chapter 43: In fact, there is one person who definitely knows

After the two finished talking, Zhang Minshang went upstairs.

Li Na and Zheng Yan were whispering to each other.

Lu Xiaoqiao asked Li Na "Are you leaving?" and then the two reluctantly parted ways.

Li Na said something to her again, and Zheng Yan laughed so hard that her teeth were exposed. If her expression was any more exaggerated, the foundation on her face would have cracked. You can tell from the back of your head that they didn't fart well.

Lu Xiaoqiao was wearing Martin boots. When she was squatting on the ground tying her shoelaces, the old lady who had hardly spoken all night suddenly spoke.

"Your ambition is as high as the sky, but your life is as fragile as paper! Don't you even look at your family's conditions? Why would someone who is good-looking and rich want you?"

Lu Xiaoqiao had long since gotten over the old lady's pointed sarcasm, because after the blind date the old lady had introduced her to didn't work out, she had been telling her the same things every few days.

After coming down from upstairs, the two of them parted ways without saying a word.

While Lu Xiaoqiao was waiting for the bus, she saw Li Na get into a taxi parked on the side of the road. After more than ten minutes, the bus she was waiting for finally stopped at the platform.

There are fewer passengers in the car at night and the driver drives faster than usual.

When getting off the bus, he met a man selling roasted sweet potatoes on the roadside. The rich sweet aroma and the slightly burnt fragrance were mixed together. He took a deep breath and was almost dizzy with the fragrance.

Especially tonight when I wasn't full yet, I was struggling for a long time between wanting to buy one and the balance in my wallet. Finally, I defeated myself by using the excuse that I couldn't eat too much at night to lose weight.

With his hands in his pockets and his head down, pretending not to care, he walked past the old man as he kept shouting "roasted sweet potato".

When I returned home dejectedly, I found that in addition to Zhao Jia and Momo, Zhao Zhizhi was also there. The three of them were sitting on the sofa, holding Tuanzi and watching TV.

When Tuanzi saw Lu Xiaoqiao, he jumped down from Momo's arms, barked at her twice, and bit the fabric of her pants at her feet to pull her to the coffee table.

"Did you buy barbecue?"

Lu Xiaoqiao saw a food packaging bag on the coffee table. Although it was not transparent, it smelled good.

"Xiao Qiao, look at your Tuanzi, you really deserve to be its owner. Just now, it wanted to eat, so I gave it a little. I was afraid that it would have diarrhea if it ate too much. Now you come back to complain to you!" Momo stroked Tuanzi twice and said with a smile.

Zhao Jia opened the food bag on the coffee table and looked up at Lu Xiaoqiao: "Do you want to eat something more? Zhao Zhizhi and I went out to eat and brought back some for you and Momo."

When Lu Xiaoqiao heard that it was brought back specially for her, her eyes immediately lit up and she nodded happily, "Yes, yes, yes. I didn't eat enough tonight." After that, she took a small stool and sat down beside the coffee table.

Zhao Zhizhi pushed the barbecue towards her.

"Then eat quickly. Didn't you go to your aunt's house for dinner? Why are you back hungry?"

Lu Xiaoqiao swallowed the grilled sausage in his mouth and sighed, "Because of the company's rent, my uncle-in-law wants to buy the management rights, and the two of us don't agree."

Zhao Zhizhi was surprised and said, "Buy the management rights? Xiao Qiao, let me tell you, it's best for you to persuade your aunt not to buy it."

Lu Xiaoqiao was slightly stunned. "Why? My aunt said she didn't want to buy it, saying she didn't have the money, but my uncle-in-law said he would buy it even if he had to take out a loan, because he was afraid he wouldn't be able to buy it next year."

"Our boss knows the owner of your office building. I heard he lost a lot of money in some mining business. A few days ago, he told my boss at our company that he wanted to sell the office building. Why is he now asking for three years' rent and selling the operating rights? He's not planning to run away with the money, is he?"

Zhao Jia, who was sitting next to Zhao Zhizhi, rolled her eyes at him.

"Where did you hear that gossip? You're just spouting nonsense here. If you tell Xiao Qiao this and one day things don't turn out as you said, what are you going to do with Xiao Qiao?"

Zhao Zhizhi said innocently: "I'm just being kind!"

"You should think before you speak with good intentions."

Seeing the two of them about to fight, Lu Xiaoqiao hurriedly tried to persuade them, "Jia Jie, please stop arguing about this. Even if I heard about it, it would be useless. My aunt and my uncle-in-law are unlikely to listen to the advice of a freshly graduated kid like me."

After a while, Zhao Zhizhi said something mysteriously again.

"In fact, there is one person who definitely knows whether it is true or not."

"Who?"

The three remaining people in the room asked at the same time.

Zhao Zhizhi stared at Lu Xiaoqiao and said with a smile, "Boss Zhou."

Lu Xiaoqiao felt that Zhao Zhizhi did it on purpose.

"How would he know if it's true or not? It's not his building."

"It's not his building now, but you can't say for sure what it will be in the future, because I heard the other day that Jiang Heng wanted to buy it."

Lu Xiaoqiao said somewhat dejectedly, "That's it. If Jiang Heng really buys it, then won't we all have to move away?"

"Didn't I tell you to ask Mr. Zhou?"

Not to mention that she was embarrassed to contact the other person because of what happened a few days ago, even if that didn't happen, she wouldn't be so bold as to ask about such things concerning the company's future plans!

"We'll talk about it later. There's still some time before it happens. Maybe my uncle-in-law will come to his senses and decide not to buy it. Then I won't have to ask."

……

Two days later, when Lu Xiaoqiao was preparing to have lunch with Lin Lin, she received a WeChat message from Tang Qian.

Tang Qian: [My friend is free this afternoon. I'll take her over to discuss design. You can prepare accordingly.]

After seeing this message, Lu Xiaoqiao really wanted to run to the temple to burn incense to the Buddha. This year was really her lucky year. She had heard from Tang Qian before that this company was not small in scale, and if she could sign it, her commission would be very considerable.

He happily replied to the message and the two of them agreed on a time.

The friend Tang Qian brought was a beautiful woman who looked very intellectual. Whether it was her inner temperament or her conversation and manners, she made people feel that she was a charming woman.

Judging from the way the two of them communicate, they must be very familiar with each other.

It’s hard to imagine how someone with his personality could have such serious-looking friends. It feels very strange.

Tang Qian briefly introduced the two people and got down to business, and everything went smoothly afterwards.

Although she did not order a custom-made piece, she chose the latest fabric at a considerable price. After deciding on the picture, she ran into trouble when she wanted to see the sample.

A few days ago, one of Li Na's clients also took a fancy to this new type of fabric, and the staff in the sample room told her to ask Li Na for it.

Li Na was already feeling unhappy when she saw that Lu Xiaoqiao had another order to do, and now she refused to cooperate no matter what.

"I can't do anything if you tell me that. My client is on a business trip and hasn't seen it yet. If you ask me to take it back now, what if my client happens to be back? How am I going to explain it to him?"

Finally, I had no choice but to call the manufacturer and ask them to mail another fabric sample.

They said it would take several days to mail it, but fortunately Tang Qian's friend said it could wait a few days, so Lu Xiaoqiao felt relieved.

After the matter was finalized, Tang Qian insisted on treating Lu Xiaoqiao to a meal, but she refused again in a few words, saying that she should be the one to treat him to the meal after the order was completed.

Tang Qian looked at the slightly cunning Lu Xiaoqiao and felt like he was punching cotton. He had asked her out again and again but failed, and he couldn't find any reason to find fault with her.

On the way back, the intellectual beauty next to Tang Qian laughed and teased, "What's the matter? Ah Qian, are you interested in that girl? She's quite pretty, but you can also tell that she doesn't have those kinds of thoughts about you."

Tang Qian shrugged and said with a playful smile: "Just because she doesn't like him now doesn't mean she won't like him in the future. Sister Mei, what kind of man do you think she likes?"

Shu Mei glanced at his attire. Today he was wearing a sky blue work suit.

Shu Mei and Tang Ci are close friends who have been playing together since childhood. Naturally, Shu Mei regards Tang Qian as her own brother, and now she takes the opportunity to persuade him.

"Girls definitely like guys who dress neatly and are hardworking and ambitious. Ah Qian, you'll look great in a suit. Wouldn't you be even more charming when you're working?"

"Sister Mei, why do I feel like you were sent by my sister?"

"We are doing this for your own good."
