Chapter 14 You're a Playboy!

Listening to Soong Hui's report on the progress, Xi Xiu looked at Hee Leiting who was in a pink suit, and asked. "These kinds of gifts can satisfy her?"

Hee Leiting lay on the sofa and said confidently, "Of course. Based on my years of experiences with women, no girl can refuse such sugar-coated bullets."

Xi Xiu still found it unreliable, "I doubt that." But the truth was that among all his friends, only Hee Leiting was more experienced.

Seeing that Xi Xiu doubted his ability, Hee Leiting immediately sat up and grumbled, "You are the one who asked me to teach you how to chase a girl!"

Xi Xiu cast a glance at Hee Leiting and said, "I didn't expect you to be so unreliable." His words were filled with dissatisfaction.

Hee Leiting glared at Xi Xiu. "Fine! Whatever!"

Xi Xiu ignored Hee Leiting and told Soong Hui to call Tang Yinning and ask her out for dinner.

When Tang Yinning received Soong Hui's call, she was still a little stunned. She didn't answer for a while and then asked a pointless question, "Assistant Soong, did you send those gifts?"

"Yes, Miss Tang. They were gifts from Boss Xi to you." Soong Hui replied respectfully on the other end of the phone. He helped Boss Xi to pick them out.

Only then did Tang Yinning respond. "I have something to do tonight. I'm afraid I can't have dinner with Boss Xi."

Soong Hui paused for a second. What should he reply? But he still said, "Okay."

Hanging up the phone, Tang Yinning looked at the pile of gifts in the room and felt troubled. Her divorce was still unsolved, and now Xi Xiu became another problem. These matters were really killing her.

Because it was rare for Chen Pojun to come home for dinner, Ji Qian prepared a table of western-style dishes delightedly. After sitting down, she asked with a smile. "Honey, I was shopping with mom a few days ago. Guess who we saw?"

Chen Pojun was in no mood for anything because of the court summons. He asked impatiently, "Who?"

"Tang Yinning!" Ji Qian also noticed the change in Chen Pojun's tone and said with a smile.

Chen Pojun was stunned for a moment and said, "Tang Yinning? She's still in the mood for shopping?"

"That's what I thought! She was smiling as if she's very happy." Ji Qian thought of what happened that day and gnashed her teeth in rage. If it wasn't because of Chen Pojun's money, how could that faded old woman humiliate her like that?

Chen Pojun cut off a piece of beef and stuffed it into his mouth. He said with his teeth gnashed together, "It seems that I underestimated her."

Ji Qian felt that it wasn't enough, so she continued, "Tang Yinning also bought a 30,000 yuan dress. Honey, don't you think she's too much? She's about to get divorced but she is still splashing out your money!"

"That's her own money." Thinking of that 20% shares, Chen Pojun couldn't help but feel frustrated.

Ji Qian dazed for a moment. "Would Tang Yinning have that much money?" Looking at Chen Pojun, she felt anxious and thought. "Could it be the compensation Chen Pojun gave to Tang Yinning?"

"No way. That'll be my money. If Chen Pojun gives it to Tang Yinning now, what should I spend afterwards?"

It was supposed to be a joyful meal, but the two of them had their own thoughts.

"Boss Xi, Miss Tang said she has something to do and can't have dinner with you." Soong Hui felt that it was necessary to say this himself.

As expected, Xi Xiu's expressionless face got gloomier when he heard this. Hee Leiting, who was sitting by the side and acting as an onlooker, laughed out loud. "Haha, feeling stupid now? The great Boss Xi is rejected. How rare!"

Xi Xiu looked daggers at Hee Leiting, which made him stunned for a moment. Hee Leiting smiled awkwardly. "Forget about what I said."

"Cancel my meeting this afternoon. I'm off work now." Xi Xiu didn't want to lose the chance to meet Tang Yinning. Since she didn't want to keep the appointment, then he could go meet her.

Soong Hui nodded and walked out. Xi Xiu stood up, took out his coat from the closet, put it on, and was ready to leave.

Hee Leiting stared at Xi Xiu with a blank look. "You are going to meet her in person?"

"Yes. I'll let you go." Xi Xiu now felt that Hee Leiting was an eyesore. Why didn't he notice that Hee Leiting was useless before?

Hee Leiting was snubbed. He came over here to advise Xi Xiu today but got despised in the end. He was full of discontent. "No, I want to go with you. I haven't met the legendary Miss Tang herself yet."

"No." Xi Xiu refused without hesitation.

Hee Leiting said gloomily, "Why could Xu Jianran see her?"

"For business." As Xi Xiu spoke, he picked up the car keys, pushed the door open, and left Hee Leiting alone in the office.

Tang Yinning thought that after her divorce with Chen Pojun, she might have to move to Xi Xiu's place. In her mind, Tang Yinning was not used to this kind of change.

"Ning, why are you in a daze? Do you want braised beef flavor or sour beef flavor today?" Du Ruoshui moved closer with two buckets of instant noodles in her arms and asked with a smile.

There were no other options. Du Ruoshui couldn't cook. Tang Yinning wasn't in the mood to cook. They didn't want to order takeout, so they had to eat instant noodles.

"Sour beef." Tang Yinning replied. Before Du Ruoshui could unwrap the wrapping paper, Tang Yinning said immediately, "Wait, don't open them. Let's go out for dinner later."

Hearing that Tang Yinning was going to treat her, Du Ruoshui refused right away, "You don't have much money now, so you must be economical. If you really get divorced. The lawsuit fee, your florist, and things like that. They all need money. Let me treat you."

As soon as Du Ruoshui finished speaking, Tang Yinning's phone rang. Looking at the two words "Xi Xiu" flashing on her phone, Tang Yinning's heart beat faster.

"Hello?"

"Come outside."

"Ah?"

"I'm at the door."

After saying this, Xi Xiu didn't give her a chance to refuse him. He hung up the phone and waited quietly in the car.

But Tang Yinning was a little flustered. She looked at Du Ruoshui and said, "Xi Xiu is at the door."

"Xi Xiu. Wait, Boss Xi?" Du Ruoshui finally realized, and a big smile appeared on her face. She urged Tang Yinning to stand up and get dressed. Then Du Ruoshui said, "Take the chance. He's handsome and rich. What a good opportunity!"

"You only care about a man's looking?" Tang Yinning was a little speechless, but her heart was not calm at all.

Du Ruoshui didn't care about that. Seeing Tang Yinning change her clothes and ready to go out, she quickly took out a lipstick and put it on her lips. Then Du Ruoshui said, "Fortunately, you were born beautiful. You can't give up on yourself. Go!"

Tang Yinning could be said to have been pushed out of the Coconut Club by Du Ruoshui. With a bang, her eyes fell on the white car. She stepped forward in her light high heels and asked softly, "Why are you here? I, I have something else to do."
