Chapter 37: Ride a ride
During Saturday dinner, Tao Jiujiu made a request to rent a house near Ye’s Building, and received support from his father and brother.
Although her mother Qin Xiaofeng did not firmly object, her face was not good-looking. She repeatedly reminded her for a while before nodding.
On Sunday morning, Tao Jiujiu simply packed up and walked downstairs with a suitcase.
"Aunt, why did you move? Is it because you got married?" The one who was most reluctant to part with her at home was Huanhuan, who was less than three years old.
When Huanhuan heard the word "marrying" from her mouth, Tao Jiujiu couldn't help but shocked. How old the child knew so much.
"The company where my aunt works is far away from here, so I have to live there." Su Xiaoman explained softly.
"When will the aunt come back?" Huanhuan pouted, looking unhappy.
"If Huanhuan misses her aunt, then call her. Auntie will definitely take the time to go home to see our baby Huanhuan!" Tao Jiujiu couldn't help but lean down and kissed Huanhuan's pink cheeks in one mouthful.
Tao Lingfeng went downstairs after hearing the news: "Have you found all the houses?"
"It's all done. The contract was signed yesterday morning. The community is near Ye's Building, and it only takes five minutes to walk to and from get off work." Tao Jiujiu replied.
"I have always forgotten to ask you, is your work in Ye's family still going well?" Tao Lingfeng asked again.
When did it start? The brother who loved her the most in the family has such a long distance from her, and he has questions and answers, and is more polite than talking about family matters between brothers and sisters.
Tao Jiujiu couldn't help but sigh quietly, and then replied copingly: "It's pretty good."
"Wine and wine, take good care of yourself."
The deepest part of Tao Lingfeng's eyes saw the care of Tao Jiujiu vaguely saw the figure of the young man who stood up for her and blocked all the ups and downs.
"If you are unhappy outside, come home."
"Brother..." Maybe I was too concerned, Tao Jiujiu secretly called himself sentimental.
What's wrong today? Didn't you always think about moving out to live a life of **?
Now that dreams come true, they have become so pretentious, which is not like her style!
All my melancholy and reluctance were swept away and replaced with the brightest smile: "I'm leaving, goodbye everyone!"
In fact, the "big family" she calls her is just her brother's family of three.
Today is Sunday. Tao Haiyang and Qin Xiaofeng went out to climb mountains as usual, and they were not even at home, let alone whether they care about her stay or not.
After walking out of the villa area, Tao Jiujiu looked back at this home that had lived in for more than ten years.
The lush sycamore trees in the yard, the lotus flowers blooming in the pond, and the insects squeaking in the grass, have a goodbye!
============
Tao Jiujiu walked on the sidewalk along the street with her suitcase, her heart full of expectations for future life.
Tao Lingfeng repeatedly proposed to help Tao Jiujiu move, but she refused. No, she just wanted to start from this step and have a new beginning.
All the private cars whistled by were whistling by their side, but there was not a taxi carrying passengers.
There are so many rich people in this city!
Tao Jiujiu called the taxi company while dragging her luggage, but the news she received was very bad. There was no empty car nearby to pick her up.
"Why are you carrying your luggage? Are you having a quarrel with your home?"
A black Mercedes-Benz suddenly stopped beside Tao Jiujiu, and the person driving was Ye Hongtao.
"What are you talking nonsense?" Tao Jiujiu retorted, and smiled embarrassedly, "Can you discuss something?"
"What's up?"
"I can't get a taxi. Do you have time to take me a ride?" Tao Jiujiu suggested without blushing, "I can pay three times the car before."
"Oh, since you are willing to pay the fare, get in the car." Ye Hongtao nodded, and a charming smile appeared on his cold face.
His charming smile...
Shake your head and try to shake off this terrible thought that suddenly passed by.
What is she doing?
A silly maniac! And he is a silly maniac to Ye Hongtao, a big pervert who eats women and doesn’t spit bones!
"Give me the box."
Fortunately, Ye Hongtao did not notice Tao Jiujiu's loss of composure for a moment.
"Well, thank you!" Tao Jiujiu handed the suitcase to Ye Hongtao, and instead said as if he was remembering something, "By the way, I'm going to Hetai Garden."
"It runs contrary to my destination..." Ye Hongtao muttered vaguely, then turned his face and winked at Tao Jiujiu, "You owe me a favor again!"
“…”
Tao Jiujiu inserted his hands with his thumb down, despising him, despising him!
A sesame and mung bean size thing like ride-hailing is a favor, and Ye Hongtao is too careful to calculate!
"I remember once saying that you roll your eyes..."
"It's ugly." Tao Jiujiu took over the conversation without any saltiness and slightestness, "I found that you are not at all losing money when doing things. No wonder you can manage Ye's group so well."
"It sounds sour. Are you praising me or hurting me?" Ye Hongtao raised his eyebrows, "Your catchphrase is quite interesting, why did you shrink it back?"
Tao Jiujiu rolled her eyes unceremoniously: "I work in your company under a pseudonym. Please help me make a lie. That has indeed become your favor, and I agree. But this time it is a transaction. The fare has been negotiated, why do you have the nerve to say that I owe you a favor?"
Seeing that Tao Jiujiu was serious about him, Ye Hongtao also had a playful intention and deliberately wanted to tease her: "Although this is a deal, I made a big concession. Let's do this, this time the favor is relatively small, you just need to invite me to a meal to pay it off. As for the favor that hides your identity... when I think of it, I will raise it to you."
"ah?!"
"Then let's just make it. For lunch, you can just treat me to a good meal."
Is the meal good? Is the little money on her bank card enough for him to drink a decent glass of red wine?
Glimp him, stare at him hard...
Thinking of this, Tao Jiujiu once again rolled his eyes.
Then he became cruel, stomped his feet and gritted his teeth: "Okay, but I want me to choose the restaurant!"
============
The roads falling into the water on Sunday morning were not congested, and Ye Hongtao's Mercedes-Benz arrived at his destination shortly after driving.
Perhaps because of the sake of the lunch later, Ye Hongtao had no intention of leaving. Not only that, after parking the car, he even took on the job of carrying his suitcase.
Seeing that he was very sincere, Tao Jiujiu was embarrassed to order him to expel him, so he had to lower his eyes and stare at the elevator door in front of him in a daze.
"How many floors do you live in?" Ye Hongtao asked.
Do you want to tell him? I'm afraid it's hard to refuse now. Otherwise, press the buttons on each layer? No, no, she doesn't want to imitate Lan Keer...
What's more, even if he knows where he lives? He can't fall in love with him, and he can't come to steal money and sex.
