Chapter 33

It was almost ten o'clock when I got home. Tang Mi threw Fu Xin on the sofa and shook her goosebumps.

It always felt like a corpse.

She picked up her pajamas and went to the bathroom to take a shower. When she came out, Fu Xin had already sat up on the sofa, staring blankly at the dark sky outside the balcony.

Tang Mi walked up to her and shook her five fingers together before her eyes: "Are you alright?"

Fu Xin took a breath, and his voice carried the poet's unique melancholy and vicissitudes: "My life, like the sky in front of me, is dark and desolate."

Tang Mi: "..."

She pursed her lips and comforted: "Everyone will experience the darkness in the workplace, just keep an eye on it."

"No, I can't stand it, I have decided, I want to resign!"

Fu Xin's words were decisive, Tang Mi thought about it and said, "Your boss is indeed a bit too much. If it were me, I would also want to resign, but if you resign, what will you do with the debts you owe?"

Fu Xin raised his head and said, "If the old ones don't go, the new ones won't come, and I won't get much development if I stay in that broken company. It's better to leave early and find a good job again!"

Tang Mi twitched the corners of her mouth and didn't speak. Although Fu Xin would speak up, she would still go to work when she woke up tomorrow morning. Who told her to owe her a lot of debt.

Those who owe debts have no right of waywardness.

After Fu Xin expressed his pride and ambition, he fell on the sofa with a thud.

Tang Mi: "..."

She found a thin blanket to cover Fu Xin and let her fend for herself in the living room.

After returning to the room, Tang Mi sat on the bed and thought for a while, but she still took out her mobile phone and called Luo Hao.

The phone rang twice and was picked up. Tang Mi said a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Luo, for calling you so late."

Luo Hao smiled and said, "It's okay, but don't let President Yu know."

If the big boss knew that he was still on the phone with his sweetheart at night, he might have half a year's salary deducted.

Tang Mi smiled into the microphone and said, "I'm calling you mainly to discuss with you the debt Fu Xin owes you..." When she said this, she felt a little embarrassed to say it, "Well, she was promoted and raised her salary. Failed, can you wait any longer?"

Luo Hao's eyebrows moved slightly on the other end of the phone and asked, "Didn't she get an exclusive interview with President Yu? And President Yu specially sent her a headline."

Tang Mi flattened her mouth and said, "That's right, but the credit was taken away by her superiors."

Luo Hao was silent for a while. This kind of thing is commonplace in the workplace. If you encounter it, you can only say that you are unlucky.

Tang Mi continued: "This matter is indeed very annoying. Fu Xin is also more excited now, and has plans to resign."

Luo Hao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Didn't you say she owes a lot of debts? If she resigns, what will happen to those creditors who come to collect the debts?"

Tang Mi sighed: "If things really develop to this stage, I can only help her get on with it first. I just saved some money recently."

Luo Hao said, "Didn't you save your money to open a dessert shop?"

"The business of opening a store can be pushed back. Those who collect debts can't get the money, but it's very frustrating."

Luo Hao thought for a while and said, "I see, don't worry, I was just teasing her, I didn't really want her to lose money."

Tang Mi was overjoyed and said, "Really? Thank you Mr. Luo, I knew you were not such a stingy person!"

Luo Hao raised his eyebrows and said, "So all this time you have been thinking that I'm a stingy person?"

"No, no, it's only right and proper to pay off debts, hahaha."

Luo Hao laughed and didn't care about her anymore: "Okay, it's getting late, you should go to bed earlier too."

"Okay, good night, Mr. Luo." After Tang Mi hung up the phone, she finally fell asleep in peace.

The next day, Fu Xin really got up and went to work obediently, but Tang Mi could see that she was still in a bad mood. She cut two slices of the cocoa-flavored pound bread she made, poured two more cups of yogurt, and brought them to the living room together on a dinner plate.

"Eat something, and you'll feel better when you're full." She pushed the bread and yogurt in front of Fu Xin, who picked up the bread with a sullen expression and ate it.

Tang Mi glanced at her and felt that she should tell her the good news: "By the way, Assistant Luo said that he doesn't need you to pay back the money, so he's not happy!"

Fu Xin paused for a moment, then curled his lips and said, "That debt was originally for you to repay."

Tang Mi whimpered at her, and lowered her head to nibble on the bread.

The phone on the table vibrated, it was an unknown number. Tang Mi looked at the screen and hesitated for a while, but picked up the phone: "Hello."

"Miss Tang, hello." A middle-aged woman's voice came from the phone, her polite and distant tone reminded Tang Mi of those wealthy wives on TV, "I'm Yu Yi's mother, I don't know if you are free today, I want to meet you."

Tang Mi's brain exploded when she heard the words "Yu Yi's mother", so flustered that Fu Xin, who was sitting opposite, noticed her strangeness.

Mother Yu waited for a while without waiting for her reply, and then asked again, "Do you have time today?"

Tang Mi took a deep breath for herself and finally said, "Hello, hello, I'm going to work in the restaurant today, what's the matter?"

Mother Yu pondered for a while and said, "It's inconvenient to talk on the phone. I hope we can meet each other, and it won't delay you for too long, at most half an hour."

Tang Mi thought about it and said, "Well, we have a two-hour break in the afternoon."

Mother Yu said, "I'll send a driver to pick you up at the restaurant, we'll see you in the afternoon."

It was not until Mother Yu hung up the phone for a long time that Tang Mi put down the phone in a daze. Fu Xin swallowed the bread in his mouth, looked at her and said, "What's wrong? Who's calling? Your face is pale."

Tang Mi grabbed Fu Xin's wrist and said with a panicked expression, "What should I do! Yu Yi's mother asked me to meet!"

Fu Xin almost choked on the bread, stared at her with wide eyes for a while, then slapped the table: "I didn't expect the legendary plot to come so soon!"

Tang Mi said, "What's the plot?"

Fu Xin clenched his right hand into a fist, put it on his mouth and coughed twice, looking at Tang Mi with contempt: "There are ten million here, take it, and don't appear in front of my son again."

Tang Mi: "..."

Fu Xin was obviously stimulated by this plot, and roared excitedly twice: "Ow! It's something that you must go through to fall in love with a domineering president!" She said, walked over to Tang Mi and sat down, staring at him with gleaming eyes. At her, "Promise me, if she throws the check in your face, you must pick it up and put it in your pocket! I heard that someone became a billionaire this way, what an inspiring story!"

Tang Mi: "..."

She brushed aside Fu Xin's instantly revived angry face, just wanting to be alone.

After Fu Xin went to work, Tang Mi tidied up the desk and felt uneasy.

Do you want to inform Yu Yi about this? She hesitated for a while, but decided to wait until after seeing his mother before telling him.

She had just packed her things when the phone on the table rang again, this time it was Bai Xiao.

Since she and Yu Yi were officially together, Bai Xiao has not contacted her again, and now she is suddenly calling... Hey wait, is this another legendary plot—

The ex-girlfriend of the domineering president found his current girlfriend and said arrogantly, "Don't think he's serious about you, he's just playing with you!"

Tang Mi shook her head violently, and threw the small theater in her head out.

The phone was still ringing perseveringly, Tang Mi glanced at the screen and picked it up: "Hello, Miss Bai."

Hearing her voice, Bai Xiao said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I've been busy during this time, and I realized that I haven't made a cake for a long time. I don't know if you're free today, I can't be lazy anymore. ."

Bai Xiao's tone was very relaxed, no different from when he treated her before, which made Tang Mi slightly relieved. But today I have made an appointment with Yu Yi's mother, and she doesn't have the energy to teach Bai Xiao to make cakes anymore.

Tang Mi sighed softly and said, "I'm sorry, I already made an appointment today, how about another day?"

Bai Xiao's eyes moved, and she asked keenly, "Who are you dating? Why does it sound so heavy?"

"Well, no one..." Tang Mi thought for a while with her head buried in her head, and then said as if she was going out of her way, "Actually, it's President Yu's mother, who suddenly said she wanted to meet me, and I'm still a little nervous now."

Bai Xiao frowned, thought for a moment and asked, "Did you tell Yu Yi?"

"No, after all, I don't know what's going on."

Bai Xiao said with relief: "You don't have to worry too much, Yu Yi's mother is not a bad person. Since you have something to do today, I will find you next time."

"OK, thanks."

Bai Xiao smiled and said, "Why do you thank me for teaching me how to make cakes?"

Tang Mi said, "Thank you for being willing to let me teach you how to make cakes."

Bai Xiao was stunned for a while, then smiled and said nothing.

After hanging up the phone, she thought about it, changed her clothes and went out.

When Yu's mother saw Bai Xiao standing outside the door, she was stunned for a while and then smiled and invited her in the door: "Why are you suddenly here, Xiao Xiao, what's the matter?"

She pulled Bai Xiao to sit down on the sofa, busy ordering the servants to pour tea and get snacks. Bai Xiao looked at her and said with a light smile: "Aunt Yu, don't be so polite, I came here today mainly to talk to you about Yu Yi."

The smile on Yu's mother's face froze for a moment, then she held Bai Xiao's hand and asked, "Xiao Xiao, have you also heard the rumors outside? Don't worry, those must be intentional by people with ulterior motives. Spreading rumors, think about it, how could Yu Yi like the staff in the restaurant?"

Bai Xiao was silent for a while, and then said to Mother Yu: "Actually, I heard my brother say this before, and Yu Yi personally told him that he and Tang Mi were together."

Yu's mother's expression changed suddenly, she looked at Bai Xiao and asked, "Did he say it himself?"

Bai Xiao nodded, and Mother Yu stood up from the sofa in anger: "Wang Ma, call Yu Yi and ask him to come back to see me right away!"

Seeing her like this, Bai Xiao also quickly stood up: "Aunt Yu, don't be angry, Yu Yi is just in love, it's a normal thing."

"Having a relationship with the employees in the restaurant?!" Yu's mother raised her voice unconsciously. Yu Yi was always very good in her heart. Even if she didn't join the family company, she went out and worked hard to run the Yu Group into a A well-known food kingdom.

So how could she accept Yu Yi falling in love with a restaurant employee

Bai Xiao pursed her lips, looked at her and said, "Aunt Yu, do you know Tang Mi?"

"Why should I know her? We Yuyi are going to marry you!"

Bai Xiao sighed and said, "Aunt Yu, feelings cannot be forced, you are so angry because you don't know Tang Mi. I have been in contact with her, she is very easy to get along with, and she is very serious and responsible. Heart. Maybe you don't know, she has always been my pastry teacher, she explained to me very patiently every time in class, I learned a lot from her."

Yu's mother's slender eyebrows gathered slightly to the center of her eyebrows. She looked at Bai Xiao and said, "So what? Even if she is a good girl, it doesn't mean that Yu Yi has to be with her, right?"

Bai Xiao said: "She is also a very good pastry chef. As long as you take a bite of the cakes she makes, you will definitely fall in love." She said this and smiled at Mother Yu, "I know that Aunt Yu also likes cakes. Chances are you really should try her cake, it's like magic and it sells very well at Dream."

Yu's mother was silent for a while, then pulled Bai Xiao to sit down on the sofa: "Xiao Xiao, even if Tang Mi is as good as you said, she has a good character and ability, but you also have these things, and they are not worse than her, Yu Why do you want to choose her instead of you?"

"Because Yu Yi likes her." Bai Xiao took Yu's mother's hand and looked at her seriously, "Aunt Yu, you should know very well how much it is for someone like Yu Yi to meet someone you like. It's not easy, so I hope he can be with someone he likes."

This sentence seemed to touch Yu's mother, and she did not speak with a calm face.

Bai Xiao added: "Aunt Yu, I will not marry Yu Yi, but this will not affect the cooperation between the Bai family and the Yu family. Yu Yi will still be our best business partner."

After she finished speaking, she stood up from the sofa and said goodbye to Yu's mother: "I've said everything I want to say, I hope you can think about what I said, goodbye."

After Bai Xiao left, Yu's mother still sat on the sofa. After a while, the doorbell rang and Yu Yi came in from outside.

Yu's mother raised her head and glanced at him, without saying a word, Yu Yi took the initiative to ask, "What is your business with Tang Mi?"

Mother Yu laughed, her voice slightly sarcastic: "Has she sued you?"

Yu Yi said, "She didn't say anything, but isn't it because you came back to me in such a hurry?"

Yu's mother exhaled, got up and walked to the dining room: "Let's not talk about this for now, since you're back, let's have a meal by the way. I'll ask Wang's mother to make steamed cod for you."

Yu Yi looked at her back and suddenly said, "Actually, I have never liked eating steamed cod."

Yu's mother's figure suddenly paused and turned to look at him.

Yu Yi stretched his legs and walked towards the dining room: "It's just that I haven't had a favorite dish, so you guys think I like steamed cod, and I have no objection." He pulled out his chair and sat down at the dining table. "But I've started to have something I like to eat recently, Wang Ma, do you have silver cod? Let's make a pan-fried silver cod."

Wang Ma has worked at Yu's house for more than 20 years, and this is the first time she hears Yu Yi say what she wants to eat, and she almost falls into tears with excitement: "Okay, I'll do it now, very soon!"

Yu's mother stood there for a while before she walked across from him and sat down.

During the meal, neither of them said a word. Mother Yu put down her chopsticks suddenly and said, "Even if I agree with you and Tang Mi, your father will not agree."

Yu Yi said: "I will tell him about this myself, whether he agrees or not will not affect the final result. But if you want to know Tang Mi, I can introduce you to her, so don't secretly look for her behind my back. ."

Mother Yu glanced at him, then picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat.

Tang Mi's nerves were tense this morning. While she was nervous, she was about to see Yu Yi's mother, and at the same time she was curious about how much value she would have if she really slapped a check in her face

Could it be a blank check and fill it out on your own

It's a little exciting to think about it. After all, she has grown so big, and no one has ever slapped her with money.

After the afternoon break began, a black car was parked at the entrance of the restaurant on time. Tang Mi had greeted the store manager before, but now she put on her casual clothes and went out.

Seemingly seeing her come out, the window of the co-pilot's car slowly lowered, and the driver turned halfway and said in her direction, "Miss Tang Mi, please get in the car."

Tang Mi burped nervously and swallowed the word "hello" back.

She quickly opened the rear door, and was dumbfounded... How could it be Yu Yi sitting inside? !

Yu Yi glanced at her sideways, and said lightly, "Get in the car."

She didn't dare to disobey the big boss's order, and got into the car quickly.

After the door was closed, the car drove out. Tang Mi looked at Yu Yi next to her and asked curiously, "Why are you here?"

Yu Yi said: "Why, it's not my mother, you're disappointed?"

"… Do not."

Tang Mi felt that Mr. Yu who told a cold joke was so cute!

Yu Yi looked at her for a while before asking, "My mother asked you to meet, why didn't you tell me?"

"Uh... Because I don't know what she is looking for, I plan to tell you after seeing her, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstanding between you."

Yu Yi's eyes moved: "What else is she looking for you for? Isn't she just throwing money at you."

Tang Mi opened her mouth in surprise: "Will you really hit me with money!"

Yu Yi frowned: "Why do you seem very happy?"

"Who's not happy with the money?"

"Even if it costs you to break up with me?"

"Well, this..." Tang Mi showed an embarrassed expression, "It depends on how much she asks."

Yu Yi's air pressure dropped, approaching her and threatening, "You dare."

Tang Mi burst out laughing: "Why don't you ask, do I like your money or your people when I'm with you? I've always been looking forward to it."

Yu Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Then do you like my money or my people?"

Tang Mi took his arm and leaned her head against it: "No, I just like how handsome you are!"

The driver in the front row couldn't hold back and finally laughed.

Yu Yi's eyes took advantage of the situation, and the driver immediately said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Yu, I didn't hear anything!"

Yu Yi retracted his gaze, raised his left hand and rubbed Tang Mi's head: "When my parents find you in the future, let me know as soon as possible."

"Oh." Tang Mi nodded, "Then will I never see your parents again?"

Yu Yi chuckled: "Of course not, I will formally introduce you to them, so don't meet like this secretly."

"Okay, I know."

Yu Yi rubbed her soft black hair again, as if thinking of something, he pulled out his arm: "I have something for you."

Tang Mi blinked: "What?"

Yu Yi took out an exquisite small box from his suit pocket and handed it to Tang Mi: "Open it and take a look."

Tang Mi couldn't wait to open the box. Inside was a silver necklace with a female figure hanging in the middle. Tang Mi took a closer look and found that it was somewhat similar to herself.

"This one is based on your photo, with your initials on the back."

Tang Mi heard what Yu Yi said, and hurriedly flipped over to take a look. It really had the initials of "Tang Mi", and there was a small row of English below it, engraved with heart.

"So beautiful!" Tang Mi raised her eyes to look at Yu Yi, her eyes sparkling, "What festival is today, why did you think of giving me something?"

"I just want to give you something, you don't need to choose any festival." Yu Yi took the necklace from her hand and pushed her hair aside, "Turn around and I'll put it on for you."

Tang Mi still turned around. When the cold necklace touched the skin on her neck, Tang Mi subconsciously shivered: "Is this expensive?"

"It's worth some money, but you can't sell it."

Tang Mi couldn't help laughing again: "That's a good idea!"

Yu Yibu stepped forward and took a light bite on her small earlobe: "Try it."

Tang Mi's ears immediately turned red.

Yu Yi hooked the corners of her mouth and helped her fasten the necklace: "Okay."

Tang Mi was still a little awkward when she turned around, and she changed the subject and said, "Where are we going?"

"Go for afternoon tea." Yu Yi looked at the necklace around her neck after saying that, and was quite satisfied, "By the way, I heard that you are worried about your roommate's debt recently?"

Tang Mi's eyebrows moved twice: "Did you listen to what Assistant Luo said?"

Yu Yi nodded: "Well, you don't have to worry about this. I heard Luo Hao said that he helped your roommate pay off all the debts he owed."

Tang Mi was stunned for two seconds before opening her eyes in surprise: "What did you say?"

At the same time, Fu Xin also asked Luo Hao in front of him with the same tone and expression: "What did you say?"

Luo Hao hooked her lips to her, and that smile fell into Fu Xin's eyes especially coquettish: "I mean, I am your biggest creditor now."

Fu Xin: "..."

The plot unfolded so quickly and unbelievably, her heart couldn't bear it!
