The Big Shot Tears Apart Her Villainess Script After Transmigrating - Chapter 401

Chapter 401: Tang Zitong Treats Secretary Si to Dinner

Tang Zitong obviously did not really care if Secretary Si would be alone for the rest of his life, so she did not ask further.

Then, she said to Tang Li, “Not only are the investors against it, the other leaders of the film crew are also against it. However, Secretary Si has already settled it. We just have to wait and see the effect tomorrow night.”

Tang Li smiled and said, “The effect will definitely not be bad.”

“Hehe, that’s what I think too.” After saying that, Tang Zitong lowered her voice and asked Tang Li, “Fourth Sister, do you think I should treat Secretary Si to a meal for doing us such a big favor?”

Tang Li said, “It’s up to you.”

Tang Zitong, “If I don’t treat him to a meal, it’ll make me an ungrateful person. After all, he has helped us a lot.”

Tang Li smiled. “Then treat him.”

Tang Zitong, “But he said that he has to go back to the company in the afternoon. I don’t think he has time to eat out.”

At this point, she suddenly felt a little happy. “It’s better if he doesn’t have time. I don’t want to have dinner with him anyway. But I have to treat him to dinner. This way, I won’t feel bad about asking him for help in the future.”

Tang Li held back her laughter as she listened to Tang Zitong talk to herself. She knew that Tang Zitong just wanted to talk to her about this, so she agreed.

…

After ending the call with Tang Li, Tang Zitong felt better. She turned around and walked to Secretary Si, who had finished talking to Director Ning and was obviously waiting for her. With a forced smile, she said gratefully, “Secretary Si, thank you for helping me out today. To express my gratitude, let me treat you to a meal tonight.”

Secretary Si looked into her eyes and could tell at a glance that she didn’t mean it. He pursed his lips and said expressionlessly, “I still have to go back to work.”

Tang Zitong almost smiled.

She knew that he was going to say that. That was why she asked.

“But…” Secretary Si continued.

Tang Zitong’s eyes widened and her heart skipped a beat.

“I’ll get off work at eight tonight. You can treat me to supper then.”

“But…” She didn’t want to.

“Is Miss Tang unwilling?”

“Of course not. I am very willing. You’ve done me a huge favor. I just think supper isn’t enough to express my gratitude.”

“Well then…”

Tang Zitong’s eyes widened, thinking to herself, “No way, is he going to ask me for a favor in return?”

“I happen to have something to ask of you. I wonder if Miss Tang has time recently?”

“I…” No time.

“It’s fine if you don’t have time.” Secretary Si sighed.

“I have. I didn’t say I don’t.”

Tang Zitong suddenly realized that Secretary Si’s lips seemed to curl into a smile, but after she blinked, the smile was gone.

Secretary Si pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and nodded. “Alright, I’ll tell you what it’s about when the time comes.”

Tang Zitong opened her mouth, wanting to say something. In the end, she realized that she didn’t know what to say, so she nodded.

“Let’s go. I have to go back to work.”

The two of them walked out.

Tang Zitong asked as she walked, “How do you want me to help?”

She had to ask clearly so that she could be mentally prepared.

“Come to my house.”

….

“What!?”

Tang Zitong felt like she was hallucinating. “Where did you say?”

“My house.”

“Ah!”

Just when Secretary Si thought that Tang Zitong would stomp her feet in anger, she suddenly said excitedly, “I knew it. I knew that a sharp-tongued man like you doesn’t have a girlfriend. You must be nagged by your parents to find a girlfriend, but you can’t, so you wanted to find someone to pretend to be your girlfriend to shut up your parents.”

Secretary Si was speechless.

At that moment, Tang Zitong patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, “Secretary Si, this is not a solution. Actually, let me give you a piece of advice, if you change the way you talk to girls, you can find any kind of girlfriend you want.”

Secretary Si was silent for nearly a minute. He pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose again, as if admitting that what she said was right, and said, “Since you know, I hope you can put up a good act. I don’t want my parents to be able to tell at a glance that we’re a fake couple.”

“Don’t worry, leave this to me.”

Tang Zitong suddenly felt that Secretary Si was actually a little pitiful. Because of his sharp tongue, he couldn’t even find a girlfriend. He must have been nagged by his parents and wanted her to help him out.

If she helped him out, it’d be easier for her to ask him for help in the future.

At this thought, Tang Zitong smiled.

Secretary Si looked at her bright smile and smiled.

…

At night, the men from the Qi family came back for dinner. After all, all the Qi members were here today.

Tang Li and Qi Yihan sat together, and many juniors came over to toast.

After the meal, it was already past eight.

Tang Li and Qi Yihan walked towards their house together.

The moon tonight was not bad. There were frogs croaking in the garden. The two of them walked hand in hand and chatted casually.

“After Qi Hao gets married, I’ll go to Jiangnan with Butler Yang. When Butler Yang is gone, will the Qi Mansion be fine?”

“Don’t worry. Butler Zhang and Butler Yang graduated from the same Butler Academy. Butler Zhang is quite capable. He was called back from E Country by Butler Yang when he was injured.”

Tang Li smiled. “That’s why you can’t judge a book by its cover. Butler Zhang and Butler Yang’s personalities are too different.”

“Mm,” Qi Yihan said. “I’ll go with you.”

Surprise flashed across Tang Li’s eyes. “What about the company?”

“I can work remotely. Besides, I’m not as busy as before.”

Tang Li was happy. She hugged his arm and said as they walked, “Then after we help Butler Yang, we’ll go to the island… Before we leave Imperial Capital, I have to go get my reward from the higher-ups.”

Qi Yihan tilted his head to look at her and smiled. “Alright.”
