Chapter 16

"Oh?" Tang Song took out his phone and shook it at him, "Then should I ask Director Chen in the big group now?"

Hearing this, Du Du Shaokai's expression collapsed completely.

He was the one currently responsible for maintenance; if Tang Song really did that, he would be stirring up trouble!

In his impression, Tang Song had always been a good-natured office pushover.

Frugal in life, gentle in speech, and introverted.

He didn't expect him to have such a sharp side.

Could it be that he lost his mind from losing weight?

He gritted his teeth and whispered, "Old Song, we're alumni; we took plenty of big classes together in college. I know you're that kind of tech geek, a person who actually does the work.

Our company is about to receive a huge amount of financing, and development will get better and better. If you follow me steadily, I can help you get promoted to a management position in two years.

You might not know yet, but Li Zhongguo, the Vice President in charge of our company's channel business, is my uncle-in-law."

Hearing this, Tang Song suddenly realized; no wonder Chen Yunteng would take such good care of him.

"How about it? I'm doing this for your own..." Du Du Shaokai said a few words, then hurriedly closed his mouth.

He looked straight ahead.

The gloomy expression on his face instantly became bright.

He stood up straight, waved his hand, and smiled brilliantly: "Sorry Xiao Jing, Liu Huihui, good afternoon! Are you two beauties out for a walk too?"

"Good afternoon."

Tang Song turned his head and saw two female colleagues walking toward them.

Tian Jing and Liu Liu Huihui from the HR department.

Tang Song's gaze subconsciously gathered on the sweet-looking Tian Jing.

He couldn't help but sigh again: her skin is truly white!

A standard cold-white skin tone; it looked like the kind that glows.

If he had such good skin, he could also be called "handsome."

Of course, as the company goddess, Tian Jing's figure was also top-notch.

To describe it with popular internet vocabulary, it would be 【Innate JK Holy Body】.

Her figure was well-proportioned, her curves were beautiful, her waist was slim, and her legs were long and straight.

That group of old perverts in the company discussed her every day, but there were really few who dared to go up and pursue her.

After all, the car she drove was an Audi A5.

Du Du Shaokai couldn't care about Tang Song at this time and walked a few steps quickly to stand beside the two.

He said obsequiously, "Sorry Xiao Jing, I wanted to compliment you this morning at the company; today's outfit is really great, it suits you very well!"

"Thanks for the compliment, well deserved." Tian Jing smiled and made a peace sign, very sweet and cute.

Her outfit today could be considered carefully prepared.

A shirt paired with a knitted vest on the upper body, a pleated skirt on the lower body, and a lotus-root-colored trench coat on the outside.

Standing there, she was a living anime-style beautiful girl, very eye-catching.

Liu Liu Huihui pretended to be angry, "That's too much! You only compliment one of the two girls; you're provoking internal conflict between us. Be careful, or I'll change your attendance record."

"Liu Huihui, you're also... well, you're okay too."

"Take this! Don't run if you have the guts!"

The three stood together laughing and joking for a while, and when they realized it, they found that Tang Song had already walked far away.

Liu Liu Huihui sighed, "Tang Song is quite impressive; he lost so much weight without making a sound. Just speaking of this perseverance, it's quite amazing."

Du Du Shaokai chuckled, "Maybe he was rejected by a girl after confessing, drank some chicken soup for the soul, and started 'painting the wall with dung'."

He deliberately emphasized the four words "painting the wall with dung" and even made a painting gesture.

This made Liu Liu Huihui and Tian Jing giggle uncontrollably.

Tian Jing blinked and subconsciously looked at Tang Song's back.

She didn't have much of an impression of this somewhat silent colleague, only remembering that he was a bit fat.

She could always see his busy figure during the Friday afternoon tea she was responsible for.

16:20 PM.

"Ding-dong—" A WeChat notification sounded.

【Zhao Zhao Yaqian: "Sorry, Brother, I just finished being busy. I'm free tonight. I know a fried skewer shop that is very, very delicious. Let me treat you to eat there? How about it? (#drooling)"】

After hesitating for a moment, Tang Song replied: "Okay, I get off work at 6:00 PM."

【Zhao Zhao Yaqian: "Got it, then I'll wait for you at the shop. See you later."】

Exiting the chat interface, Tang Song touched his empty stomach, feeling a bit troubled.

If he went to the fried skewer shop, he really might not be able to control himself and have a big meal, and then his challenge mission would have to be postponed.

After thinking for a moment, he simply ran to the Lawson convenience store downstairs.

He bought a carton of low-fat milk, a roasted sweet potato, and a few skewers of oden.

He filled his stomach first.

At 6:00 PM, he closed his computer and clocked out on time.

He walked out of the office building entrance.

A slightly cold wind blew toward him, and the air was mixed with the moist fragrance of soil.

Tang Song looked up; dark clouds were gathering in the sky, and the color was getting deeper and deeper.

It seemed to indicate that a spring rain was about to arrive.

Fortunately, it wasn't far from Yunsheng Plaza, and it would take less than ten minutes to get there.

Tang Song bet that he wouldn't be that unlucky.

He wrapped his jacket tighter around himself and jogged along the sidewalk of the street toward Yunsheng Plaza.

The sky gradually turned dark, the wind became more urgent, and the pedestrians on the road walked in a hurry.

"Pat~" His forehead felt cool.

Immediately after, drops of rain fell, becoming denser and denser.

It started to rain.

"Unlucky!" Tang Song gradually slowed his pace and couldn't help but sigh.

"Beep, beep, beep—" The sound of a car horn rang from his side.

A white Honda Civic slowly lowered its window, and Guo Peng bent over and shouted at him: "Hey boy! Get in!"

Tang Song chuckled, opened the car door, and got in, "Thanks for the rescue, Brother Peng!"

"Don't mention it, where to? I'll take you."

"The pedestrian street at the west gate of Yunsheng Plaza."

"Got it, let's go!" Guo Peng shouted, released the brake, and the vehicle slowly started moving.

Dense raindrops hit the front windshield and were wiped away by the wipers.

Beautiful music was playing on the car stereo.

"Kneading all the spring into one morning

Turning all the unstoppable words into secrets and closing the door

That inexplicable feeling, may I ask who will take it away..."

"This is the only benefit of having a car; you have a tool to shelter from the wind and rain on the road, and you don't have to worry about not being able to get a taxi when eating with girls." Guo Peng patted the steering wheel and sighed: "I've saved enough for the down payment and plan to buy a house next month. I'll buy a used one too; it doesn't matter if the residential area is a bit old, as long as it's a two-bedroom. That way, both the car and the house are in place, and I can be more confident when going on blind dates."

"That's great, I wish Brother Guo everything goes smoothly and that you find a beautiful wife soon."

"Hehe, keep it up, Little Song, you'll have a day like this too; it's not far off."

Tang Song looked at the bustling traffic and hurried people outside the window and nodded gently.

Guo Peng was already 30 years old this year; in order to buy a house in Yancheng, he had been working very hard and was under great pressure, but now he was finally about to get his wish.

Tang Song once felt that the current Brother Guo was his own future.

The two didn't chat for long in the car before they arrived at the pedestrian street outside Yunsheng Plaza, which was very close to Yizi Beauty and Hair Salon.

Tang Song said goodbye, pushed open the car door, and got out.

Covering his hair with his hand, he ran forward a few steps and saw the tall figure standing at the entrance.

It seemed she had discovered Tang Song, who looked a bit disheveled.

Zhao Zhao Yaqian hurriedly opened a beautiful rainbow umbrella, stepped in her flat leather shoes, and walked quickly to meet him.

In the misty, rainy dusk, the lights on the pedestrian street suddenly lit up, and the evening wind carried fine rain threads through the streets and alleys.

Occasionally, some rainwater bypassed the umbrella and hit Zhao Zhao Yaqian's small suit.

Watching her figure gradually approach, a crisp system notification sound rang in Tang Song's ears.

"Ding! You have triggered the branch mission 【My First Car】; please go to the 【Mission Center】 to check."
