82: I'll treat you to snails!
Seeing that all 1.32 million had been transferred into the account and bought at full position, Chen Kai finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"You're not taking the day off tomorrow, right?"
"I probably won't be. Why do you ask, Brother?"
Tang Yunshu replied while opening her Bank card app.
Even though everyone else said this stock was going to be delisted, she still chose to believe in Chen Kai! She wanted to buy 300,000 worth to test the waters. Even if she lost it, she would accept it.
"Good. Since you're not off, just keep an eye on this stock at the company."
Chen Kai said indifferently. After all, who could have guessed that this thing would rise tomorrow and be delisted the day after?
It would probably harvest another wave of Retail Investors' wallets. Who knows how many people would post about how strong the wind is on the rooftop again.
"Okay~ It's so late, do you want to join me for a late-night snack? I'll treat you to some!"
"Treat me to what?"
Chen Kai was slightly stunned, his expression gradually becoming subtle.
"field snails, of course! Have you forgotten the big field snails I took pictures of for you last time? They're spicy and numbing, so delicious!"
"You worked hard driving me back to the company today, so I'll treat you, how about that? Consider it a reward, Brother."
Tang Yunshu raised her willow-leaf eyebrows, slightly bending her forearm and resting it on his shoulder.
"Ah~ Boss, that's not fair! We've been working overtime, why aren't you rewarding us!"
"Yeah, exactly! We're working ourselves bald, isn't that hard enough! It's unfair!"
"I protest! I want to eat field snails too!"
Tang Yunshu immediately furrowed her brows, turned her head away with a cold face, and said, "You guys have triple pay, buy them yourselves!"
Seeing Tang Yunshu's cold attitude, everyone immediately shrank their necks and wisely shut their mouths.
Their boss was great in every way. There was extra pay for overtime, triple pay for working on holidays, and while she might scold them, she genuinely cared about her employees.
She had a great figure and was beautiful; her only flaw was being too much of an ice queen.
But ever since they met Chen Kai... they realized that her ice-queen demeanor didn't seem to be a flaw; it was just that she was only an ice queen to them...
Chen Kai chuckled. Since there was nothing to do back home anyway, he said, "Fine, I'll reluctantly join you for a late-night snack then."
"Oh~ thank you for your reluctance."
Tang Yunshu giggled and ordered two extra-large portions of spicy crayfish and field snails combo on the food delivery app.
She also ordered dozens of skewers, garlic oysters, and chives.
When placing the order and selecting the delivery address, she hesitated slightly. She looked up at Chen Kai, and with a hesitant, quiet voice, she spoke.
"Brother, I ordered a bit too much, and it probably won't fit on the office desk. How about I set the delivery address to my place, and you come back with me to eat?"
Her eyes held a hint of anticipation, though mostly it was a craving for the food.
Chen Kai was stunned. He turned to look around before slowly leaning close to her ear, a fragrant scent wafting towards him.
"Aren't you afraid of bringing a strange man home and something serious happening?"
"You wouldn't eat me, we're just having a late-night snack. Besides, you're not a stranger. I've never brought a man home before."
Tang Yunshu shrugged indifferently.
"Well... if you put it that way, aren't you afraid I'll break your record for the first time you've brought a man home?"
"If you break it, you break it. It's not like I'm interested in any other men anyway. Order placed! Let's go!"
Tang Yunshu said nonchalantly, placed the order, and then pulled Chen Kai up.
They walked out of the office and went downstairs, where she couldn't wait to sit on the back seat of Chen Kai's little electric donkey.
"Should I take you back to the park first? Your car is still there."
"It's okay, I'll just take a taxi to the company tomorrow morning. The field snails are arriving soon, and they won't taste good if they get cold. Hurry, hurry, hurry~ gogogo, let's go~"
Tang Yunshu said impatiently.
Chen Kai smiled helplessly, got on his Electric Scooter, and headed towards Longmen Residential Complex.
Once they reached the complex, following Tang Yunshu's directions, they soon arrived downstairs at the building.
Just then, a delivery rider wearing his yellow "battle robe" also pulled up.
Tang Yunshu quickly checked her phone and stopped him.
"Delivery guy, the last four digits are 8888."
The delivery guy was stunned, then immediately handed over the food.
"Hehe~ Just in time, the food is here!"
Tang Yunshu carried a large bag of takeout, pulled Chen Kai by his sleeve, and they went up the elevator straight to the third floor.
After unlocking the door and entering, Chen Kai curiously looked around her flat.
The entire room was milky white and very cozy. Hanging in front of the floor-to-ceiling window were a few... hehe, stockings, white stockings.
There were many cute little dolls in the room, and the sofa was covered with plush toys.
The shoe rack was full of women's shoes. Aside from a few pairs of high heels, the rest were cute little rabbit shoes that were furry.
"You sit down first, I'll go get some bowls and chopsticks!"
Tang Yunshu greeted him warmly and turned to go to the kitchen.
"Okay."
Chen Kai roughly looked around the room and found that Tang Yunshu was quite clean; the room was kept in good order.
He sat at the table, opened the takeout packaging, took out two drinks, and opened the lid of the field snails.
Tang Yunshu came out of the kitchen with two bowls printed with little lamb patterns, chuckled embarrassedly, and said, "I live alone, so my bowls and chopsticks are a bit girly. Don't mind it."
Chen Kai took the bowl in front of him without any hesitation and said, "How could I mind? Let me taste and see if it's really as delicious as you say."
He picked up a field snail with his chopsticks, put it to his mouth, and sucked hard. The QQ-bouncy field snail meat, mixed with the spicy and numbing flavor, swept through his entire mouth.
"Is it good?"
Tang Yunshu rested her chin on her hand and blinked her large eyes.
"It's delicious!"
"Hehe! That's good!"
Tang Yunshu felt satisfied. Having the things she liked to eat approved by others was something that made her very happy!
She casually opened two cans of sugar-free cola and pushed one of them toward Chen Kai. "Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
"Wow, Brother, you suck it so clean."
Chen Kai almost choked. What kind of strange adjective was that!
"You eat too, don't be polite!"
He picked up several large field snails and put them into Tang Yunshu's bowl.
...
Half an hour later, Chen Kai rubbed his stomach and let out a satisfied burp.
He checked the time. It was already nearly two o'clock, and his eyelids felt a bit heavy.
"I'm full, that was so satisfying."
Tang Yunshu also leaned back in her chair and rubbed her stomach, her abs slightly bulging. She picked up her phone to check the time, her eyes showing a hint of surprise.
"It's already past two. Brother, why don't you stay the night at my place? The guest room has everything you need."
"This..."
Chen Kai looked out through the floor-to-ceiling window; the road outside was pitch black.
"That wouldn't be good, right? A man and a woman in the same room, if word gets out, what about your reputation?"
Chen Kai joked.
"Pfft~ I'm worried about you, Brother. Many places in the New District don't have streetlights yet, and it's pitch black. I wouldn't feel comfortable letting you go back alone."
