I'm crazy, don't mess with me. I just love to pretend to be crazy, remember that.
Chapter 22: Managing Money, Especially Saving Money
After selecting the dishes she wanted to eat and having them served, Si Qian buried her head in her food and devoured it like a starving ghost.
As Pei Li turned to grab the bowl, the small cake that had just been brought over had vanished.
Why are you eating so fast?
Si Qian raised her head, taking a bite of her chicken leg as she spoke:
"Because if you chew slowly, there will be two less chicken legs."
"At my previous company."
Si Qian added a sentence and continued to gnaw on her chicken leg.
As a 996 office worker, her only wish is for better food.
What's wrong with that?!
In the city, horses don't neigh, cows don't moo, but cows and horses receive messages in group chats every day.
Even though she's already transmigrated into a book, can't she still eat a couple more chicken legs?
Pei Li straightened his back: "So you came here for a dating show?"
"To make money." Si Qian took a tissue and wiped the grease from her mouth. "The company said I could stand there and get scolded for free, so I came here."
"I thought you came here to find love..." Pei Li muttered to himself.
[Silly child, just answer whatever they ask.]
Si Qian really can blurt out anything.
[It's all just a persona; everyone knows she recently brought lunch to President Li.]
Upon hearing this, Pei Li's eyes lit up with a smile, and his eyebrows lifted slightly. He suddenly leaned closer:
"If I confessed my feelings to you, would you say yes?"
Si Qian stopped cutting the steak with her hand and looked at Pei Li.
The latter simply bent her fingers and tapped the table lightly, leaning against the French windows beside her, tilting her head to look at Si Qian, waiting for her answer.
He always pursued efficiency in his work, and knowing that Si Qian's target was him, he naturally went straight for the kill.
But it's clear that Si Qian doesn't have that kind of feeling for Pei Li.
It's been three years already, and the mission still hasn't started.
She casually replied, "That depends on the conditions you offer."
As the richest eligible bachelor in the book and a prime eligible bachelor in the capital, Pei Li, the main villain, is incredibly wealthy.
Having money is just his least significant advantage.
Another advantage he has is his ability to manage money.
Special savings.
This is Si Qian's assessment of him.
Pei Li surrendered and revealed all his cards in the first round of the confrontation:
"If I own a car and a house, and the property deed is in your name, I'll give you half of the assets."
Of course, as a gold miner, Si Qian was quite adept at dealing with these situations.
"I may not own a car or a house, but I can put your name in your signature, and I'll give you coupons for all the stores in Beijing."
For Pei Li, Si Qian's trump card was nothing more than a drop in the ocean.
【No, you two just started fighting like this?】
[The top lane duo, a chosen loser combination.]
[The three groups next door are about to have a breakdown with a blurry, pixelated photo, and you two are already talking about love.]
【President Pei, are you confused?! What exactly do you like about Si Gou?!】
Pei Li: "I'm serious."
Si Qian: "Me too."
Pei Li: "And you? Do you like me?"
In response, Si Qian simply stated very honestly—
I like your face.
Pei Li has always been confident in his appearance.
After all, as the saying goes, a husband's appearance is a wife's glory.
"Of course, my face is stunning whether I'm a man or a woman."
Si Qian immediately made an OK sign:
"Of course, it would be the same if I were in that situation."
"..."
Is this something I can hear without paying?
[Teacher, something's wrong!]
Si Qian, I hate that you're such a blockhead!
[The conversation between these two is so intense, it's like a car wheel is about to run me over! Is nobody going to do anything about it?]
After finishing their meal, the two planned to go back and enjoy the fruits of their labor.
When she left, her former colleague secretly took a stack of vouchers from the store and forced them into Si Qian's hand.
"I can't fit any more!"
"It's okay, use this!"
As he spoke, his friend took out a cloth bag from a bank from the cabinet and filled it with a stack of flyers and vouchers for Si Qian.
"Use the vouchers yourself. If you can't finish handing out all the flyers, just throw them away!"
As soon as I stepped outside, I saw several bank tellers from the neighboring bank shouting and advertising from a makeshift tent with microphones:
"Dear fellow villagers, our bank has a promotion today: deposit 30,000 yuan and get a bag of rice, 40,000 yuan and a barrel of oil, 50,000 yuan and a robot vacuum cleaner!"
Pedestrians passing by on the street were in a hurry. The salesperson noticed someone coming down from the hot pot restaurant on the second floor, carrying their bank's bag, and handed them the microphone directly.
The intention was to let Si Qian say a few words, but it was clear that Si Qian did not get the other party's meaning.
As a part-time real estate salesperson, Si Qian grabbed the microphone and chimed in with a shout:
"Those who have money, please support us financially!"
"Opportunity knocks but once!"
"..."
Why are you stealing other people's business again?
[Si Qian, just how many part-time jobs have you been doing?!]
[That's what I shouted when I was a street performer hundreds of years ago.]
Si Qian was carrying a bulging bag with the logo of XX Bank on it as she walked down the street. It was a deserted street, and she quickly attracted the attention of thieves.
Two young but strong men, seeing that there were no surveillance cameras nearby, suddenly had malicious intentions and drove their car in front of Si Qian and Pei Li.
After exchanging a glance and getting out of the car, the two pulled out their knives and, without saying a word, headed straight for what Si Qian was holding.
One of them stopped Pei Li, while the other tried to snatch the bag from Si Qian's hand.
Because the other party had weapons, Si Qian could only pull Pei Li back.
The cameraman following behind was about to rush up to help when Si Qian suddenly flung the thing in her hand, and the bulging bag was thrown more than ten meters away.
The two thugs immediately ran towards the package.
"Come on!"
Si Qian yelled and, without saying a word, pulled Pei Li straight to the electric scooter they had parked.
The thugs, having obtained the items, turned around and saw Si Qian and Pei Li get into their car. They cursed under their breath and angrily turned around and sped over.
"Hold on tight!"
Si Qian turned the handlebars to start the bike, and Pei Li lifted his leg and straddled it.
When they were only three steps away from the thugs behind them, Si Qian turned the steering wheel all the way to the end, and the car carrying the two of them sped off.
The thugs behind him missed their target, grabbing only air.
"Fuck! That son of a bitch!"
The cameraman, who was following behind at a distance of more than ten meters, was completely dumbfounded.
Viewers in the live stream finally came to their senses:
Holy crap! Did I just witness a robbery?!
[Huh? Who is the thief?]
[Don't underestimate Si Qian just because she lost a stack of vouchers; she gained an electric scooter!]
Si Qian rode his electric scooter around the side road and then caught up with the two thugs from behind.
The two thugs were completely unaware, and one of them had just taken out his phone to call the police.
The next second, a car drove up from the side, along with a hand.
Before he could react, his phone was gone too.
Si Qian, sitting on the electric scooter, turned around and shouted at the two people:
"There are impurities in the steel!"
Pei Li, in the car: "What do you mean?"
Si Qian: "We need to practice more!"
