Even though things had been figured out now, Tang Muxin still remained depressed as she was unable to do anything to solve the situation.
Corporate spies were usually hard to uncover, and the most frustrating part was that for every day that the spy remained in the company, the crisis of Tang Ruisi’s company would not be solved.
It was absolutely impossible to stop the development and research of the drug. If it were stopped, all the previous efforts and investments would be put to waste. But if the development continued, as said from before, it would not alleviate the crisis. There was nothing to do.
“Dali, you have always been lucky. Can you try to find a solution for my family?” Tang Muxin pulled Hong Dali’s hand and kept shaking it. “I don’t know what to do anymore now. I can only rely on your invincible luck. Can you help me, please?”
“I do want to help.” Hong Dali said helplessly. “The question is whether everything can be solved by luck. Besides, the spy is hidden so well. What kind of luck is needed to make him expose himself?”
“What should I do then?” Hearing Hong Dali say so, Tang Muxin also had no way around it. She was a very smart girl, after all, and understood that the method of solving the problem purely through luck was unreliable. She bit her lips and continued, “Can I only watch as my father becomes more frustrated as every day passes by? It’s very harmful to the body if he becomes angry.”
“I don’t think that it will be bad to that extent.” Hong Dali suddenly took Tang Muxin’s hand and said. “Let’s go, don’t think about this for now. Let’s walk around the street and see if there is anything fun to cheer us up. It’s said that if people are in a good mood, then their luck will become good as well. And once one is lucky, then it will be possible to think of a solution!”
“But why do I feel that such a method is very unreliable?” Tang Muxin thought for a while, but in the end, she could only helplessly follow. “Forget it, there is no use thinking about it anyway. I will just listen to you. Maybe hanging out with you will restore my luck.”
Hong Dali laughed and took Tang Muxin by her hands. “That’s for sure, people with no heart and lungs have high luck index!”
After exiting the hotel, the couple and the lackeys walked swaggeringly on the road, looking very formidable.
They did not care about where their destination was, they only wanted to stroll around aimlessly around the streets.
The two were walking with a half meter gap between them and would glance at each other once in a while, having a short conversation, before turning their eyes back to exploring the streets.
“Xinxin, do you want to grab an ice cream?” After walking a while, Hong Dali suddenly asked. “I remember that couples always eat this when they go out shopping.”
“O… Okay…” Tang Muxin’s face turned red. “Buy it for me then.”
“You,” Hong Dali turned around and pointed towards one of his lackeys. “Go buy some ice cream, one for everyone. Get a big one for Xinxin and myself.”
“Roger that!” The lackey ran away like the wind.
“Hong Dali!” Tang Muxin said angrily. “Do you have a pig’s brain?!”
“Ah?” Hong Dali was stunned for a moment. “What did I do wrong?”
“I’m going to ignore you from now on!” Tang Muxin turned her head away angrily.
One minute later.
Hong Dali, Tang Muxin, and the nine lackeys followed behind, each holding ice cream, and ate while walking. The passers-by all looked at them. “Is there an ice cream festival today? Why do they all have an ice cream each?”
“That lady is so pretty, and the guy looks good too!”
“Unless eating ice cream can help make us look better? I’m going to get one too!” The crowd walked away while whistling.
A few minutes later, the whole street was filled with people each carrying an ice cream on their hands, licking it while walking…
The group was walking, when suddenly, a young woman’s disdainful voice could be heard from a corner of a relatively quiet building. “I told you not to look for me, what are you doing here?”
Ai? This sounds familiar.
Hong Dali eyes brightened instantly and pulled Tang Muxin’s hand. “We have found something fun!” After saying that, he pulled Tang Muxin along and hid carefully, while the nine lackeys quickly dispersed. The process was quick and smooth as if they had practiced it for a long time.
Tang Muxin asked questioningly, “What’s up? Isn’t it just a couple arguing? What’s there to look at?”
Hong Dali said while chuckling, “There’s a saying that best describes this. If the conditions are right, go have fun. If the conditions are not right, create one to have fun!”
Tang Muxin decisively kept her mouth shut.
Sure enough, at this time, one could only hear the man’s voice full of grievance. “Tingting, can you please not be angry with me? Aren’t I already working hard? Although I don’t have a car now, I don’t think it will take long before I can buy one. Don’t break up with me!”
After he said this, Tang Muxin said angrily, “He must have met a gold-digger. This man is also too absurd, how can he have no dignity at all. So shameful.”
Hong Dali smiled, called a male lackey, and said, “Go buy a piece of a pie, then take 10,000 yuan to buy a gold chain. Also, get the car keys and room keys ready, I have a use for them!”
Male lackey: “Roger that!” And once again ran away like the wind.
Within two minutes, the lackey rushed back and whispered, “Young Master, I have what you asked for. What do I do next?”
Hong Dali whispered, “First, do this… Then, do that… And also…”
Male lackey: “No problem!” And ran off once again.
Tang Muxin asked curiously: “Dali, what do you want to do?”
Hong Dali smiled cheekily. “Wait to see a good show!”
At this moment, the woman’s voice could be heard. “We have already dated for at least half a year, right? Has your pay risen? Do you have any hope of being promoted? You can only earn one thousand a month. After deducting the portion for rental fees and food, is there even anything left?”
The male continued in a small voice, “I’m currently on a project, how could it be finished in such a short time? But I can guarantee, in just half a year, no, in just three months, I will definitely complete the project and will definitely receive a pay rise then!”
“Forget it, I have no time to wait for that to happen.” The woman continued, “A rise in pay in just three months? That can only happen unless a pie falls from the sky…”
The moment she spoke up to here, a pa sound could be heard. A pie really dropped next to her leg!
The woman: “…”
The male: “…”
Tang Muxin: “…”
This time, after staying shocked and rooted to the ground for five minutes, the woman changed what she said. “Who dropped this pie, what if it hits my head?” After that, she continued lecturing the male, “Do you think money can just fall from the sky? Pay rise, pay rise…”
A pa da sound could be heard once more, and a stack of hundred dollar bills fell next to her foot.
The woman: “…”
The male: “…”
Tang Muxin: “…”
Ten seconds later, the woman pointed towards the sky. “What the f*ck! I don’t believe this! Drop a car if you can!”
A Hua la sound could be heard, and a car key fell.
The woman: “…”
The male: “…”
Tang Muxin: “…”
This time, the woman broke out in anger. “Heavens, you’re playing with me! Do you think that by giving me a broken car key would change my mind to marry him? Where can we even stay?”
A Hua la sound could once again be heard, and a set of house keys fell next to her foot!
