Corporate slave? Pshaw, I'm the richest woman now!

"Humph."

Tang Tang, the world's richest shrew, rolled her eyes at the saleswoman across from her and grinned, "Auntie, your nose implant is pretty cheap, isn't it? You're so angry, you can't possibly be trying to scam me."

The onlookers couldn't help but laugh, secretly glancing at the saleswoman to see if her implants were really crooked.

Even Chi Ningbei, who had been expressionless, had a hint of a smile in his eyes.

He looked at Tang Tang's triumphant face and thought she was incredibly cute.

He then gestured for the security guards to come forward, saying, "All compensation will be handled in accordance with labor laws. My shopping mall doesn't need employees like you who lack professional ethics."

Ignoring the saleswoman and the onlookers, Chi Ningbei looked down at Tang Tang and said in a gentle voice, "Miss Tang, it's been a long time."

"Emmm, long time no see."

Tang Tang chuckled as well, "What brings Mr. Chi here?"

Chi Ningbei glanced around, exchanged a look with Bai Anli, who was watching the scene with his arms crossed and eyebrows raised, not far away, then casually looked away and said to Tang Tang, "The environment here is not very convenient, and tonight is too rushed. I wonder if Miss Tang would do me the honor of having dinner here tomorrow night?"

"of course."

Tang Tang nodded readily. She didn't want to be made a fool of here. Just as she was about to ask Bai Anli and Su Fengtian for their opinions, she met the eyes of two people who were just watching the show.

?

Bai Anli's eyes were full of mockery, and Su Fengtian's was even more obvious; the corners of her mouth were practically turned up to the sky.

……

Tang Tang was silent for a moment, then saw Su Fengtian wink at her. Just as he was about to sneak away, Tang Tang grabbed him.

She gave Chi Ningbei a polite smile and said, "See you tonight."

Then he pulled Su Fengtian, who was grinning mischievously, and Bai Anli, who looked like he was about to get some juicy gossip, away.

"Oh, Miss Tang, would you do me the honor of having dinner with us?"

Su Fengtian smiled like an aunt and looked at Tang Tang teasingly, "What's your relationship? I've never seen Chi Ningbei so gentle with a woman."

"We have no relation whatsoever." Tang Tang's face darkened, and she reached out to push Su Fengtian away, who was rubbing against her.

"Really? I don't believe it."

"More real than pearls."

This time it's for real. After all, they really don't have any relationship, Tang Tang thought. At most, she had just been lusting after Chi Ningbei's body.

Bai Anli looked at Tang Tang, and after a long while, he said thoughtfully, "Chi Ningbei is definitely interested in you. Be careful, he is not simple."

Tang Tang nodded, smiled gratefully at Bai Anli, and then said casually, "Don't worry, I'm a ruthless woman."

Okay, cold-blooded woman.

Bai Anli wasn't a talkative person, and since Tang Tang had her own considerations, they didn't say anything more, after all, they hadn't known each other for very long.

Bai Anli had just bought a new apartment, so the group headed straight to the home appliance and furniture section.

Tang Tang had already chosen the design style and even chatted with the designer arranged by Jiu Lu for a while. She planned to let the designer do as they pleased during the renovation and wouldn't interfere.

But she can handle things like electrical appliances herself.

First, they went to the furniture section, where Tang Tang immediately took a liking to two sofas.

One sofa is a solid black diamond-patterned long sofa, and the other is a round, off-white beanbag chair.

Tang Tang was allowed to lie down on that beanbag chair, which was soft, bouncy, and slightly sinking in—it was incredibly comfortable.

She immediately added both sofas to her shopping list.

The coffee table was also chosen to be minimalist in style, with a golden twisted base and branches supporting the black glass on top. The entire coffee table has a touch of artistic aesthetics in its minimalist style.

Tang Tang also prepared several vases, all made of a black crystal-like material.

The other section is for home appliances.

She went straight to the intelligent control system area.

The modern generation should embrace smart home technology!

She walked around the area and finally chose a system called "Tomato Student".

"Hello, miss, would you like a brief explanation?"

Tang Tang nodded. The sales assistant, with a gentle and friendly smile, explained in a cheerful tone, "Our Tomato classmate's database is very flexible and amazing. In addition to needing Tomato classmate to add tools for manipulation, it can also communicate and interact. Generally, you can achieve manipulation by triggering the correct keywords."

satisfy!

She nodded slowly as the sales assistant explained, then waved her hand and said, "Please get me the whole set, leave it here for now, and I'll send someone to move it later, okay?"

After receiving the black card from Tang Tang, the sales assistant quickly confirmed the payment and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the payment was successful. "Yes, miss, you can keep it for now."

Oh, right.

Tang Tang, who had just turned to leave, seemed to remember something and suddenly asked, "Do you have an ice cream machine? I want to buy one."

Ice cream machine?

Su Bai and the other person, who hadn't done much but watched Tang Tang spend lavishly, were a little puzzled. "An ice cream machine? Why did you suddenly decide to buy this?"

It's nothing, it's just that this thing is relatively expensive, and at most, it's because Wang and Jiang Ran mentioned it when I bought it last time.

It would be quite interesting to keep it at home. I could hire an excellent housekeeper and a cook from the system, and then I would have an endless supply of delicious food.

But buying these things is far from enough; she needs to spend even more money.

"It feels like I just can't spend this money..."

Tang Tang murmured softly to herself, her eyes filled with a dazed look, which Su Fengtian, who was beside her, overheard.

"What are you saying? What kind of talk is that?"

She poked Tang Tang's head incredulously, "I suggest you transfer the money to me if you can't spend it."

What's upstairs?

Tang Tang covered her head, her tone dejected.

She really felt like she had no money to spend, but she didn't want to buy things she didn't need or spend money mindlessly, because she felt that someone might talk behind her back and say she was a big grudge.

"If you really want to buy, you might as well buy the top floor."

Looking at his phone, Bai Anli raised an eyebrow at Tang Tang and said, "I was wondering why this shopping center sounded familiar. Turns out I've seen the planning documents for this place before."

As the group walked and talked, Tang Tang's heart skipped a beat. She looked at Bai Anli and asked, "What do you mean?"

"This shopping center is not a sole proprietorship. You can think of it as the government taking the lead, with a few companies bidding in the end, and the floors and business types being selected based on their investment ratios."

Bai Anli recalled, "The proposal was submitted to the Bai family, but at that time..."

Su Fengtian seemed to remember something too, and looked at Tang Tang to explain, "At that time, most of the Bai family's business was invested in new energy vehicles, so we didn't plan this one."

"Yes, so if I remember correctly, we ended up choosing two or three companies. But one of them ran into financial problems and sold the other floors that were already renovated. The top floor, however, was left vacant because construction hadn't even started yet."

At this point, Tang Tang probably understood.

"So the top floor of this shopping mall is still unfinished?"

Bai Anli chuckled, "Not only that, it seems that the original plan was to turn the top floor into a semi-open-air rooftop garden, so they didn't even do a rough construction, just applied cement."

Oh wow, isn't that just the pristine, untouched state?

That's great! She can design the top floor however she wants!
