Chapter 310 : Two Familiar Figures
Tang Zitong stopped teasing Yu Meng and walked back to Tang Li’s side. She held her arm and said, “My mom and Second Aunt thought you would come a little late, so they went out to buy vegetables just now. Will Fourth Brother-in-law come for dinner tonight?”
“He can’t come. He’s busy.”
Hearing that, Tang Zitong clicked her tongue and said sympathetically, “Fourth Brother-in-law is really a workaholic. As soon as he came back from vacation, he dived straight into endless work.”
After saying that, she suddenly looked at Tang Li’s stomach and pointed at it with her finger. At the same time, she winked at Tang Li. “Fourth Sister, is there any movement here?”
“No.” Tang Li did not mind. “The children will come when they want to.”
Tang Zitong frowned. “That’s true, but in a family like the Qi family, having a child will make your position more stable.”
“Who said so?”
“That’s what happens on TV.”
“…”
After the three of them walked into the living room and sat down, Tang Li asked Yu Meng, “What do you think about singing?”
Yu Meng grabbed the hem of her shirt with both hands and said nervously, “Sister Zitong found me many live videos of singers singing. I feel that I’m very different from them.”
Tang Zitong quickly added, “It doesn’t matter. You haven’t even started learning systematically. I think with your singing talent, as long as you start learning systematically, you will definitely be able to catch up to them very soon, or even surpass them.”
Tang Li looked at Tang Zitong, who was brainwashing Yu Meng, and said in amusement, “As long as you’re willing to work hard, there’s nothing you can’t do.”
Hearing that, Yu Meng was instantly motivated. She clenched her fists and nodded vigorously.
Then, Tang Li and Tang Zitong talked about opening an entertainment company.
Tang Li was in charge of paying and finding people, while Tang Zitong was in charge of running errands.
The two of them started talking about what to do with the company.
“It just so happens that the Tang family will be holding an instrument competition. When Yu Meng can sing, we’ll build a band for her.” Tang Li had already thought of this.
Tang Zitong nodded excitedly. “That’s a good idea. As long as Yu Meng’s band becomes popular, people will come to buy our instruments.”
At the thought of that scene, Tang Zitong was so happy that she couldn’t stop smiling.
Yu Meng was also happy. At the same time, she swore to herself that she would learn how to sing.
The three of them chatted for a while before Tang Li’s phone suddenly rang.
Seeing Tang Li take out her phone, Tang Zitong exclaimed, “Fourth Sister actually brought her phone with her today. It’s like the sun has risen from the west.”
The call was from Mr. Yun. Mr. Yun told her that his students were free tomorrow. If Tang Li wanted, they could meet at the professor’s residential area at Imperial University. His student, Wang Zetao, lived there, so everyone could go to his house for dinner. However, in the end, he added, “If Miss Tang wants to go to the restaurant for dinner, we can also arrange it.”
Tang Li, “Let’s go to Professor Wang’s house for dinner. Send me the address and I’ll go there directly.”
Mr. Yun, “Alright, I’ll get Wang to send you the address later.”
After hanging up, the three of them waited for nearly half an hour before the two madams returned from buying groceries.
When they came in, they saw that Tang Li was already there. They got the nanny to bring the vegetables to the kitchen and sat down to talk to Tang Li.
At around five o’clock, the men from the Tang family returned.
Without waiting for Qi Yihan, everyone sat down to eat.
After dinner, they sat in the living room and chatted.
First Uncle said, “The mountain was almost removed. Next, we’ll wait for the plan from the government. As soon as we get the money, we’ll start investing in instruments.”
Second Master continued, “Next, I’ll go and talk to the music academy and the bosses of the music company. As long as we can get them to cooperate with us, I think our sailing will be smooth.”
The two young men also expressed that they would do their best.
Tang Li nodded and told them about opening an entertainment company.
They agreed.
“Sure. It just so happens that with Yu Meng’s personality, we won’t be at ease if she is sent to other places for training. We won’t be worried about people bullying her if we have our own company.”
Yu Meng listened to the Tang family’s discussion. Although she did not speak, she felt warm in her heart because of their protection. She thought that she had to work harder so that she would not disappoint them.
After chatting about this, Tang Zitong suddenly remembered something happy and planned to share it with everyone. “Today, someone surnamed Xuanyuan came to our instrument store and said that he wants to customize a few instruments.”
As soon as Tang Zitong finished speaking, Yu Meng suddenly raised her voice excitedly and asked, “Xuanyuan? Is it Brother Xuanyuan?”
“Well…”
Only then did Tang Zitong remember that Yu Meng had been looking for a man with the surname Xuanyuan. She subconsciously looked at Tang Li.
Tang Li already knew who it was and said, “No.”
Then, she said to Tang Zitong, “If this person wants to customize instruments, do his business. If he has other thoughts, tell me immediately.”
These words immediately made the Tang family’s hearts skip a beat.
First Uncle asked, “Li, what’s his motive?”
“He wants me to read his fortune, but I haven’t had time. Plus, I’ve been out for so long. He probably wants to know my whereabouts through you guys.”
These words made everyone heave a sigh of relief.
Tang Li looked at Tang Zitong and asked, “How much earnest did Mr. Xuanyuan give you?”
“Two hundred thousand.”
“Next time you meet this kind of person, the earnest will start from at least a million. Two hundred thousand is too little.”
“Well… That’s what we normally charge.”
“That’s in the past. You’ll have to change it in the future.”
Tang Li’s expression turned serious, and Tang Zitong subconsciously nodded in agreement. “Alright, I’ll listen to Fourth Sister.”
…
Tang Li stayed at the Tang family’s house until ten o’clock before leaving.
When she drove the car out, she called Qi Yihan and asked how long he still needed to work before she went to pick him up.
Qi Yihan said, “It should end before midnight tonight.”
Tang Li, “Alright, I’ll be right there.”
Qi Yihan, “Okay, call me when you get here. I’ll come down and pick you up.”
Tang Li could not help but smile. “If you’re busy, don’t come down. I’ll take the elevator up.”
Qi Yihan, “Not really busy.”
Tang Li did not believe him, but she had no objections if he wanted to come down and pick her up.
She hung up and continued driving.
When the car reached a crowded area, because of the traffic jam, Tang Li casually glanced outside.
She happened to see two familiar figures.
It was Qi Lingxuan and Xiang Wanwan.
At this moment, it was drizzling. Qi Lingxuan was using his hands to cover Xiang Wanwan’s head as the two of them ran towards a mall.
This scene was actually especially loving.
Tang Li suddenly remembered that First Master had kicked Qi Lingxuan out. She thought that Qi Lingxuan would immediately think of a way to get them to ask him back, but she did not expect him to start dating the female lead.
