President, please comfort me.

Chapter 48 You Didn't Call Me

After hearing what she said, Chen Nuo smiled with her eyes crinkling, admiring her sister's courage: "So, you became well-behaved later because you knew he was Xiao Qi's friend and couldn't escape your grasp?"

"Hehe, Bingo! Congratulations on getting it right!"

"Awesome, I admire you more than anyone else." Wen Qi gave her a thumbs up.

"Tsk tsk tsk, a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea, her tricks are too deep." Yang Xu couldn't help but sigh as he drove.

"Hehe, is this the first time you've met me?"

The kind of sweet, innocent, and cute girl you like is basically gone now. If you don't want to be single forever, you'd better broaden your horizons, you know?

"Okay, okay, then please continue your story, we're all listening."

Lanling cleared her throat in an affected manner: "Where were we?"

Wen Qike, representing the group, said: "You said you wanted to get his information and then pursue him."

"Yes, come on, tell me your impression of Tang Chao. Just tell me everything you know."

"Yes, ma'am!" Wen Qi began to introduce Tang Chao like a matchmaker: "Tang Chao, Xiao He's cousin, 29 years old, unmarried, his family is in the jewelry business just like yours, Chaoyue Jewelry, you must know it."

"Chaoyue Jewelry? Doesn't that have stores in major cities? It's a leader in the jewelry industry and has gone international."

"Ah."

"Is there more? Is there more?" Lanling asked curiously.

"When I came to the capital, he was very polite and gentlemanly, like an older brother, a warm man. I don't know anything else."

Hearing her say that, Lanling was even more satisfied with Tang Chao: "A warm man is great, as long as he's not a central air conditioner, knows how to prioritize, and is caring, that's exactly what I want. Let me tell you, I don't want to find someone aloof. I've never had any experience taking care of people growing up. I just want to find someone who is good to me and understands my needs."

Chen Nuo was the oldest of the four, and she often spoiled them. She immediately stated her position: "Yes, yes, I know you are a little princess who has been pampered since you were a child. Let's find a warm and caring man. I support you!"

Lanling made a heart shape with her hands and said, "Thank you, Nuobao."

Yang Xu said, "He, Xiao He, and Ye Lin are all top figures in the circle of rich young people in the capital. In addition to jewelry, he owns many other businesses, almost all of which are joint investments by the three of them."

"The Xiao family is the richest, followed by the Tang and Ye families. I heard that the three of them successfully took over the family business as soon as they graduated. To reach such a level, their abilities are beyond question, and they must have some 'methods'. As for whether they are warm or not, it depends on whether they have taken you to heart."

"However, to be fair, Ye Lin is a womanizer, Xiao He is cold-blooded, and Tang Chao has the best reputation among the three," Yang Xu stated objectively.

Wen Qi immediately disagreed: "The rumors are a bit exaggerated. From my experience, Brother Ye Lin is a good guy, and Xiao He is alright too."

She shared Chen Nuo's opinion and supported Lanling's pursuit of Tang Chao: "I think Tang Chao is a really good person, Lanlan, I support you too."

"And you, Ah Xu?"

"Support, support, I wholeheartedly agree."

"Great, then I'll set a goal for myself: to win him over before my birthday, how about that?"

Chen Nuo asked with a smile, "Then there's only a little over a month left. If that time is up, we won't pursue it anymore?"

Lanling answered without hesitation: "A little over a month is my limit. I'll study hard and try my best to pursue him, but if he still doesn't like me, then it can only mean that he really doesn't like me. In that case, what's the point of pursuing him? I might as well say goodbye in time. Who knows, the next one might be better."

Wen Qi nodded: "That makes sense, but what about Zhan Ge? Didn't you promise him you'd go back to work after Valentine's Day?"

"Hehe, it's okay. My brother loves me so much. I'll just talk to him and postpone it for a month. If that doesn't work, I can work remotely."

"However, you mustn't let it slip that you're pursuing him; he can't know."

The three of them said in unison, "OK."

The four returned to the Tang Dynasty Family Mansion. Lanling looked around and praised, "Ah Xu, your house is quite nice. I didn't have a chance to take a good look this afternoon. It's a single-level apartment with one unit per floor."

Lanling suddenly had a whim: "Hey, do you guys think I should just buy a set too, since I'll be staying here for so long?"

Yang Xu put down his water glass and slumped onto the sofa, seemingly already used to her sudden idea. He said leisurely, "Please, don't just do things on a whim. You can stay here as long as you like."

"Given your tendency to lose interest in everything within three minutes, I suspect you'll give up in a few days."

Lanling stomped her foot, looking indignant: "Qibao, Nuobao, look at him! He doesn't support me at all."

As Chen Nuo tidied up the house, she listened to the two of them chatting. She gently shook her head, her eyes soft, and the corners of her lips unconsciously turned up: "You two stop bickering and go wash up first. We still need to pack the things we need to take tomorrow."

Wen Qi was also organizing the snacks and daily necessities she bought at the supermarket that afternoon, and she helped to smooth things over: "Ah Xu didn't mean to stop supporting you. Buying a house is not like buying clothes. You can't just buy it whenever you want. It's not too late to buy it after you've won over Tang Chao."

"Hmm, I still prefer listening to Qibao talk, haha, I won't hold it against you, I'll go wash up first."

"Then I'll go too," Yang Xu said, walking towards his room.

Wen Qi shook her head as she watched the two childish kids walk away: "Xiao Nuo, what should we bring tomorrow?"

"Hand warmers, gloves, earmuffs, woolen hats, chargers, snacks, etc. Let's organize what we have first and see what we need. We'll go downstairs to buy them later, or we can buy some of them directly there tomorrow."

"no problem."

The two tidied up in the living room for a while and were about to go downstairs when Wen Qi received a video call from Xiao He.

Wen Qi waved to Chen Nuo, signaling her to wait a moment, and then answered the call.

Xiao's exquisitely handsome face looked particularly charming on the screen, and his deep voice carried a hint of magnetism: "Are you home yet?"

Wen Qi avoided his gaze, her eyes darting around: "We arrived a long time ago, what about you?"

"I arrived a long time ago, you forgot to call me." Xiao He stood by the window, all alone, with a hint of resentment and a look of desolation.

Chen Nuo, standing to the side, clearly heard Xiao He's coquettish words and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Wen Qi gave her a coquettish look, then said to Xiao He somewhat awkwardly, "Uh, I was busy and forgot."

Xiao He had obviously heard the laughter earlier, and regained some of his ascetic demeanor: "Is someone nearby?"

"Yes, Xiao Nuo and I are planning to go downstairs to the supermarket to buy some things we need to bring tomorrow. Tell them to remember to bring some warm clothes."

"No need to go down. I've already told Ah Chen to have someone prepare. Just wait for me downstairs tomorrow."

Wen Qi was surprised to hear how thoughtful his arrangements were: "That's great! Okay then, we won't go. If there's nothing else, we'll hang up now. We still need to pack up for a while."

With Chen Nuo present, Xiao He felt a little embarrassed to continue pestering him. His tone was flat, yet it carried a hint of reluctance: "Okay, get some rest."

"Okay, good night."

"Good night."

Wen Qi put down her phone, and Chen Nuo looked at her with a gentle smile in his eyes: "Oh, it seems you two are getting along quite well?"
