Chapter 158
The next day, Tao Zi finished paying off the debt and manager Xu's loan, and felt much easier.
The only thing that makes her feel troublesome is Ding Tang. This guy seems to be obsessed. He has to go home with her at night. Tao Zi is really in a dilemma. He doesn't know what to do.
Tao Zi has no other meaning to hide her current situation. She knows the character of Tong Shuzhen and Tong Xiaoman and can't see others.
Now the mother and daughter have declined to the extreme. On the contrary, they can't be angry to see Tao Zi's scenery.
So Tao Zi thought, it's better to do more than less.
But if you bring Ding Tang home, Tao Zishi can't think of how to settle her.
The house is not too small. There is also a guest room upstairs, but that room has not been occupied for a long time. It has been changed into a utility room. If it is cleaned up as it was there, it must be a big project.
Besides, how should Tao Zi explain to her father when she takes Ding Tang back?
Did she come to ask for debt?
Otherwise, who doesn't live in their own house for the new year and goes to other people's houses to join the fun?
And Ding Tang's mouth is usually busy. What if he leaks it again?
Didn't she find herself unlucky?
It was almost noon. Tao Zi was tangled in the office alone, but there was no trace of Ding Tangtang. It was estimated that the sister ran out again and went crazy.
The Spring Festival is coming soon. People are slack in the whole office building. Even boss Zhu Dong has gone out to buy new year goods. How many employees can stay at their posts?
Ding Tangtang is used to being idle. Tao Zi can't help her. She doesn't listen to what she says. Now she has to go.
Tao Zi thought that it would be better for her not to be around. She would go home first in the afternoon, and then give her a "seal the door".
In a daze at the computer, the mobile phone suddenly rang. It was Liu HONGNA. Tao Zi connected and asked, "I said Liu HONGNA, you don't need an internal phone in the company. Why do you have to waste my phone bill?"
"See how stingy you are? You have to calculate the phone bill when you make a phone call. Who is like you now? The richer you are, the more stingy you are!"
Liu HONGNA has been in a good mood since she became the Department Director. Tao Zi first helped her control secretly. Now she is handy and ready to make a grand plan.
"What, who's getting richer and stingier? Where can you tell that I'm rich?"
Tao Zi was also amused by her: "I tell you, I'm eliminating unnecessary waste."
"Pull it down, you have wasted so much time, but also eliminate unnecessary waste."
Liu HONGNA giggled and made Tao Zi cry and laugh: "all right, all right, I'm not talking nonsense. Please hurry up. Why are you calling me?"
"I'm not in the company. The Cantonese restaurant diagonally opposite the company is the good flavor Cantonese restaurant."
"What are you doing there?"
"What else can I do? I want to eat with you."
"Free? I've ordered takeout here."
"OK, stop talking nonsense and come here quickly." Liu HONGNA said involuntarily, "give the takeout to others. You come to dinner with me. Hurry!"
Tao Zi wanted to ask again. The other party had hung up.
This makes Tao Zi feel strange. Liu HONGNA is usually bright enough. Especially after becoming the director, she often takes Tao Zi and Ding tanglu to rinse a small hot pot.
But there's no big noon dinner, and it's still in such a high-end hotel. It's really the sun coming out from the West.
Since people want to invite her, she can't kiss people's kindness. Tao Zi cleared up the papers on the table, dressed neatly, left the office and went downstairs.
Today, the weather outside is fine. Just at the end of January, the whole Yicheng has a sense of spring. The flower shops on both sides of the street are particularly prosperous. At the door are bright roses, flirtatious violets, elegant lilies and daffodils.
Tao Zi couldn't help slowing down every time she passed there.
She thought that when she was in Rose castle, roses were everywhere, of all colors, and now she didn't know whether those flowers had withered.
At the thought of this, my heart is a little more mixed with sweet sadness.
Forget it, it doesn't belong to me. It's meaningless to aftertaste it again. I'd better forget it completely.
As soon as I entered the slightly deserted Cantonese restaurant, the foreman immediately recognized that she was the excellent vice president Tao. He immediately came over and bowed down and said, "President Tao, the private room reserved by Miss Liu is on the second floor. Please follow me."
Tao Zi felt more and more strange. Why did she book a private room? Do you need to be so grand?
When he came to private room 4 on the second floor, the foreman knocked on the door first. Then he pushed open the probe and said to the inside, "Miss Liu, Mr. Tao is here."
Liu HONGNA excitedly came to the door and smiled at Tao Zi mysteriously: "don't worry to come in first. Guess who's coming?"
"Who's here?" Tao Zi couldn't help but poke her head. She looked over Liu HONGNA's shoulder and saw three people sitting in the private room. She immediately became ecstatic: "Hey, hey, why are you here?"
Those three are LV Rong, Zhu Yuan and Yang Jiao, Tao Zi's dry daughter.
The three of them stood up when they saw Tao Zi. LV Rong said angrily, "you still ask us. You haven't called Yicheng for so long. We all suspect that your world has evaporated."
LV Rong is right. Tao Zi has indeed shielded all the friends in Dongyang during this period of time.
It was not because she was busy, but because she didn't know how to explain to LV Rong and them.
It turned out that it was good to be with Liang Yi. In a twinkling of an eye, they parted ways.
Even Tao Zi didn't know what was going on, let alone how to explain it to them.
And for Tao Zi, it was like a wound that was difficult to heal. It would hurt every time it was opened.
She doesn't want to open the wound to everyone. She's afraid of pain and thinking of that person, so it's better to stay away from those who know.
"I'm busy with my work."
Tao Zi said perfunctorily, then came over to hold Yang Jiao in her arms and asked her, "how was the final exam? Didn't you fall behind?"
Yang Jiao is most afraid of being asked about this. Her private school is an elite school bully. She is only in the middle and lower reaches there, and she often asks for leave to perform. Of course, it can be imagined how her final grade is.
"Godmother, please don't ask this."
Yang Jiao was just in a good mood. Now she immediately changed her expression and said, "Why are you adults like this? You always talk about your grades. It's annoying!"
"Hey, that's not good?"
In fact, Tao Zi expected that Yang Jiao had no father or mother, and she didn't fulfill the obligation of guardian. The child was not much different from a stocking lamb. Of course, she couldn't compare with a normal child.
Zhu Yuan nodded aside and said, "it's true. Hu Weizhou and I worked as tutors for her in shifts. She just couldn't learn it. She got less than 50 points in the English test. Now her score is the third to last in the class..."
Before Zhu Yuan finished, Yang Jiao went to cover his mouth: "all right, stop talking!"
Everyone couldn't help laughing at Yang Jiao's red face and worried look.
Liu HONGNA said, "shall I be your tutor? I used to learn English best."
Tao Zi said, "that's a good proposal. Liu HONGNA used to be a learning bully and a learning committee member in the class. She will certainly teach you well."
"I don't want to be taught by the second godmother, and I don't want to learn English!" Yang Jiaoli said boldly.
"What do you want?"
"I want to go to art school and be a singer."
"Nonsense! How old are you and want to be a singer?" Tao Zi picked up the godmother's fan, stared, pulled down her face and said.
"Godmother, I'm a singer now!"
Yang Jiao took out her mobile phone and opened it to Tao Zi: "look at the introduction above. I'm one of the four leading singers. I'm not a singer. What am I?"
Tao Zi was really asked by this sentence.
At the thought of the beginning, Liang Yi said to her that it would not be very good for the child's future growth to let Yang jiaolao be so around them.
Now Liang Yi is really a prophecy. Yang Jiao has no intention to learn from her. She thinks she's a singer when she's so big.
It seems that if you want to recover it now, you can't recover it.
LV Rong also said: "Hu Wei has been angry with Yang Jiao's mother about this matter. Yang Jiao's mother said that as long as you agree, she has no opinion."
What's that called?
Tao Zi frowned and said in her heart, I'm not her mother. Why should I speak and make a decision?
But she just muttered in her heart. It was hard to say it for fear of hurting Yang Jiao's heart.
She thought about it and asked Yang Jiao, "that's why you came to me this time?"
"Well, yes."
"Well... Well, since you want to go to the art school, I don't mind. But you can think about it. It can't be like a private school. You have to study hard if you want to fish for three days and dry the net for two days."
"Don't worry, I can sing well now. Several teachers are in a hurry to accept me as an apprentice."
"You're a little famous. They want to borrow your fame to make more money!" Tao Zi saw these news on the entertainment network and was deeply ashamed of what those old singers did.
While talking, the wine and dishes had been put on the table. Zhu Yuan poured Tao Zi a glass of red wine: "thank you for coming back to help my father. I heard from my father that since you were in the company, the performance of the company has reached a new high this month."
"At noon, I dare not drink." Tao Zi hurriedly refused: "besides, uncle Zhu took me in this time. It's too late for me to thank him. Why do you need to thank me?"
She looked at LV Rong next to Zhu Yuan and asked Zhu Yuan with a mysterious smile: "don't you want to take LV Rong to see your parents this time?"
Zhu Yuan smiled with a red face and nodded.
The only thing that makes her feel troublesome is Ding Tang. This guy seems to be obsessed. He has to go home with her at night. Tao Zi is really in a dilemma. He doesn't know what to do.
Tao Zi has no other meaning to hide her current situation. She knows the character of Tong Shuzhen and Tong Xiaoman and can't see others.
