My Life with Narration

Chapter 148: Encountering My Ex-Husband Again


Wen Nanqing, Shen Yi, and Tang Nan, among the three, the wealthiest is the landlady, the most famous is Tang Nan, and Shen Yi is the most capable.

In fact, almost the entire company was built by her single-handedly. Wen Nanqing provided the startup funds for the company, Tang Nan endorsed and promoted the company, and used her own resources to help the company develop. Of course, she also invested some money and became a shareholder.

The three of them each have their own roles: those with money contribute money, and those with strength contribute effort, all while not interfering with one another.

For Wen Nanqing, investing in the company was merely a casual act. Initially, she didn't expect the company to grow very large; she just wanted to find something for herself to do and also give Shen Yi a chance to venture out.

Unexpectedly, the business grew bigger and bigger, her investments increased, and the speed of making money became faster. What to do with the money she earned? Well, she went on a house-buying spree. Originally, her family already had many houses, but now she truly became a bona fide landlady.

However, she trusts Shen Yi very much and knows herself well enough to know she's not good at business, so she doesn't interfere at all with the company's operations.

As for Tang Nan, her initial positioning was the same as Shen Yi, but for various reasons, she entered the modeling circle and had to focus most of her energy there. In the following years, she dabbled in the entertainment industry, but didn't like the atmosphere there, so the company was managed by Shen Yi.

This approach has its pros and cons. The downside is that she was very busy at the start, had to deal with many things personally, and when facing some difficulties, the other two shareholders couldn't provide any advice or solutions. Fortunately, the landlady had abundant funds, paving the way with money, which allowed them to firmly establish a foothold.

The advantage is that there are fewer annoying voices in the company; no one will criticize her decisions. Under her leadership, the company can go in any direction she points, and even if she makes a mistake, at worst, she'll take a tumble without getting knocked out completely.

But there's an interesting point: among the three, Wen Nanqing is the oldest, which is beyond doubt. However, Shen Yi and Tang Nan are about the same age, with Tang Nan perhaps even a bit older, yet they both add "little" before each other's names.

Little Tang, Little Shen; who knows what kind of quirk this is.

The conversation between Shen Yi and Tang Nan, Su Qing certainly couldn't know. When he arrived at the landlady's house, a big yellow dog rushed out barking at him.

Anyway, its general meaning was "Take me, take me with you, please!"

Then it was grabbed by the neck by a little girl and taken to the living room, where it got its hair braided.

To this, Su Qing could only give the big yellow dog a helpless look, given that he didn't have time to deal with dogs at the moment.

Afterward, he and the landlady discussed the meeting arranged for tomorrow.

The location, as the narration says, is Celestial Sea Restaurant, and the time is two in the afternoon. They didn't choose the evening, after all, it was for a business discussion.

To this, Su Qing could only nod his head and didn't remind her to watch out. After all, nothing had happened yet, and his reminder wouldn't make much impact. Fortunately, he would be going along, so there was no need to worry.

Having confirmed the time and place, they arranged to meet the next afternoon, and Su Qing left since he hadn't eaten yet. Wen Nanqing, very accommodating, did not invite him to eat, perhaps knowing she had taken someone else's man and ought to let them have some time together.

The next day at twelve-thirty, Wen Nanqing knocked on his door.

"Here comes Sister Wen," Su Qing said with a smile as he opened the door and let her in.

"Hmm, didn't disturb your sweet date with your beautiful boss, did I?" Wen Nanqing teased, pretending to look around.

To this, Su Qing shook his head helplessly:

"Sister Wen, I've told you, she's just my boss. Why don't you believe it? There's nothing going on. If you truly think I have the talent to live off a woman, why not introduce your friends to me? They say birds of a feather flock together, and Sister Wen's friends should all be little rich ladies."

Upon hearing this, Wen Nanqing became interested, her eyes twinkling. She smiled and said, "You know what, I do have quite a few rich friends. Most of them, however, are married, like your dear sister here. But of course, there are divorced ones, like me."

"But there are indeed two who aren't married yet. I'll introduce you someday. One of them is even a big celebrity!"

She deliberately mentioned Tang Nan, thinking that it wouldn't be interesting if only she and her daughter kept vying for Little Shen's man. It would be fun if Little Tang got involved too.

Sure enough, upon hearing "big celebrity," Su Qing obviously froze for a moment.

"Sister Wen, you know people in the entertainment industry?"

He was generally indifferent to stars in the entertainment circle; in fact, he preferred male stars more, not because there was anything wrong with his sexual orientation, but because he only cared about the works. After all, there were many beautiful female stars, but it didn't matter if they weren't his, as long as the films were good.

"Just this one, an old friend of mine. There's a chance I'll introduce you all."

"No need, since she's a star, it's better to let her stay on TV. Otherwise, even considering Sister Wen's face, she probably wouldn't have much interest in me," Su Qing said, waving his hand, showing he knew his limits.

"You know, your looks aren't bad, so why do you seem so insecure? I actually think my friend would be very interested in you."

She wasn't just talking nonsense; Tang Nan was almost going crazy with her interest in Su Qing. If not for being tied up in the capital, she would've rushed over by now. After all, gossiping is a woman's nature.

"What's the use of good looks when you're poor? If I had as much money as you, Sister Wen, I'd be confident; even a female celebrity would be easy to win over, and as for my boss, it would be no problem at all."

"I see, alright, I'll remember that. I'll tell your boss that if you have money, winning her over would be a piece of cake."

Hearing this, Su Qing quickly begged for mercy, and after a while, they finally started discussing business.

"Sister Wen, is everything on your end settled?"

"Yes, I've sent Little Yun and Big Yellow to her aunt's place. When we're done, I'll go pick them up, don't worry."

"That's good."

Soon it was one o'clock, and they went downstairs, where a Maserati was parked.

"Little Su, can you drive?"

"Huh? I can..."

"That's fine, you drive!"

Su Qing: ...

It turns out rich people don't like to drive—the driver drives, and the boss rides.

In this, Wen Nanqing and Shen Yi are no different; as long as he's around, neither of them would sit in the driver's seat.

He didn't have any good solutions to this, so he took the keys and got into the car, adjusted the seat, and familiarized himself with the vehicle. Fortunately, he was an excellent driver; even with a different car, it wouldn't affect his driving, just at a slower speed.

At one fifty, they finally arrived at the Celestial Sea Restaurant. Wen Nanqing made a call from the car to her ex-husband, asked for the private room number, and then both got out of the car.

"Sister Wen, why does this place look like a hotel?"

"It's a combination of a restaurant and a hotel. We used to come here for dates."

Hearing this, Su Qing didn't ask further, fearing he might touch on her sad memories.

"Welcome. How many of you?"

"We're meeting someone, Scenic Light Room 3A on the seventh floor!" Wen Nanqing replied indifferently.

"Alright, this way please."

Very soon, they arrived on the seventh floor. The rooms here were all for couples, usually for couples to return. But today was interesting; three people came, and the staff were secretly excited, already starting to gossip.

Standing at the door, Wen Nanqing took a deep breath, then wrapped her arms around both of Su Qing's, and opened the door.

"I'm here!"

Upon hearing her voice, Lu Yang immediately turned around, a familiar smile on his face, but the next second, his smile froze, seeing Su Qing waving at him:

"Hello, ex-husband, nice to see you again!"
