Ring—Ring—
Jiang Tao and Jiang Jiaqi were just about to leave when the phone in their pocket suddenly rang.
Once he took out his phone, he saw the na "Li Ming" on the caller ID.
Seeing Li Ming’s na, Jiang Tao grinned, this guy is probably calling to give him money.
According to Brother Tongzi’s information, by alerting Li Ming about the fire at the car park, he would get a thank-you fee of 200,000.
This amount would directly cover his expenses for the day.
"Hello, Li Ming."
With a swipe of his finger, Jiang Tao connected the call and greeted Li Ming with a smile.
"Brother Jiang, where are you now? I ca to Bai Gezhuang New Village to grab a al with you."
Li Ming’s voice ca through the phone.
Jiang Tao laughed heartily, "Why didn’t you give a heads up? Why the sudden surprise visit?"
"Haha, I wanted to surprise you! So, are you surprised or not?"
"Stop ssing around, kid. If I happen to have other plans, I would leave you hanging. Where are you now?"
"I just parked on the side of the road as I entered the district."
"Alright, wait there. I’ll be ho soon."
After a brief chat over the phone, Jiang Tao hung up and turned to Jiang Jiaqi, saying:
"Let’s go, Jiaqi. Let’s have dinner together tonight and celebrate the early formation of our company."
Jiang Jiaqi, feeling a bit anxious, said:
"Uncle Tao, is it okay if I show up empty-handed to et my uncle and aunt?"
Jiang Tao chuckled, "There’s no need to be formal, we’re family."
"It’s just like visiting neighbors in the village. Are you bringing anything special to my place?"
"Hehe, then I’ll just bring my appetite and join you for the al!"
Jiang Jiaqi giggled twice and followed Jiang Tao to get into the rcedes GLS parked at the door.
In less than 10 minutes, Jiang Tao drove back to the Bai Gezhuang District.
As soon as he entered, he spotted the black rcedes G-Class parked by the roadside.
This was the car Li Ming was driving when they had dinner yesterday.
Parking next to the G-Class, Jiang Tao stopped the car, rolled down the window, and honked twice.
The window of the G-Class was lowered, and Li Ming greeted Jiang Tao with a smile:
"Brother Jiang! You finally returned, I nearly grew roots waiting!"
"Haha, who told you not to inform beforehand!"
Jiang Tao laughed heartily and waved to Li Ming:
"Co on, I’ll take you to my place first to get familiar. I’ve reserved a private room at the hotel nearby for 7 PM, we’ll head over later."
"Alright! I’ll follow your lead, you’re the host!"
"Let’s go."
Jiang Tao waved to Li Ming, and the two cars moved one behind the other to park under Building 28.
Jiang Tao, renting here, didn’t have a parking space.
But fortunately, the roads inside the district were wide enough, parking by the roadside didn’t obstruct traffic.
Many residents in the district also have multiple cars for one parking spot.
With insufficient parking spaces, people park by the roadside, and as long as it doesn’t block traffic, no one complains.
After getting out of the car, Li Ming opened the G-Class’s trunk and took out seven or eight large bags and small packages.
Jiang Tao casually glanced and noticed cigarettes, alcohol, health supplents, costics, and the like. Surprised, he said:
"You ca over, but you brought so many things."
Li Ming chuckled, "It’s my first ti visiting Brother Jiang’s ho, I can’t co empty-handed! That would be too embarrassing!"
"..."
Standing by Jiang Tao’s side, Jiang Jiaqi’s expression turned slightly awkward after hearing Li Ming’s comnt!
If she didn’t know that Li Ming didn’t an it, she would have suspected he was mocking her!
It was her first ti visiting, and she ca empty-handed too!
"Haha, sure, sure! It’d be a waste not to take advantage of a rich second-generation like you!"
"Now that you bought them, I won’t be polite."
"Co on, up the stairs, up the stairs."
Jiang Tao said while taking a few bags from Li Ming to share the load.
"Jiaqi, this is Li Ming, the heir to a car dealership. Anyti you need a car, you can reach out to him."
"Li Ming, this is my niece from my family back ho."
As they climbed the stairs, Jiang Tao introduced Jiang Jiaqi and Li Ming to each other.
"Hello."
"Hi, nice to et you."
Jiang Jiaqi and Li Ming simply nodded to greet each other.
They didn’t have much to talk about during the first eting.
Jiang Jiaqi wasn’t soone who would throw herself at a wealthy man upon hearing of his wealth.
Li Ming also looked at Jiang Jiaqi with a clear gaze.
Though he enjoyed nightlife and clubbing, he wasn’t the type to pounce on a pretty woman just to get her into bed.
Ding~
As they chatted, the elevator opened on the 16th floor.
Jiang Tao led them out of the elevator, approached apartnt 1601, and knocked on the door.
Soon, there were hurried footsteps inside.
The door clicked open, revealing Jiang Xue dressed in a JK school uniform skirt standing at the entrance.
"Daddy~ Huh? Do we have guests today?"
Jiang Xue’s big, grape-like eyes darted around, eyeing the unfamiliar pair behind Jiang Tao.
"Xiao Xue, this is your sister Jiaqi, you don’t rember?"
Jiang Tao smiled, ruffling Jiang Xue’s head, introducing her to Jiang Jiaqi.
Following Jiang Tao inside, Jiang Jiaqi crouched down, smiling gently at Jiang Xue:
"Xiao Xue, you don’t rember sister? I even bought you sausage and candied hawthorn."
"Oh~ I rember now! Sister Jiaqi! You’re also in Beijing!"
Thinking about the food suddenly jogged Jiang Xue’s mory of Jiang Jiaqi.
"Little beauty, I’m your dad’s friend, and here’s a gift for you. I hope you like it."
