367: Non-stop work before leaving
Li Qinghe emerged from Shen Jiaxuan's house feeling refreshed; a girl whose world had opened up was truly different from before.
That clear voice reciting ancient poems still echoed in his ears. Shen Jiaxuan had actively wanted to read them, and Li Qinghe was merely an accompanist.
With a joyful mood, he drove all the way back to V on Shenton on Shenton Way.
For the past few days, Chen Daisy and Little Secretary Emily had been staying here; they would move to Orchard Road next week.
When Li Qinghe arrived, they had just gotten off work, and Chen Daisy had returned first.
Her company was so close to here that she was practically working at her doorstep now.
Every day, she would wake up naturally, toast two slices of bread for herself, heat a cup of milk, put on light makeup, and then enjoy breakfast.
After breakfast, she would walk two minutes downstairs and take the elevator directly to work, often clocking in two or three minutes early.
Work was simply too easy.
Moreover, she had seen the chairman and his secretary at V on Shenton last time.
She had seen them once more in the lobby these past two days, after they learned Chen Daisy also lived here.
Hey, Chen Daisy had even been promoted to department manager!
With a promotion, a raise, and meeting a good person, Chen Daisy felt like her life was on an express lane.
Living in a luxurious mansion and working at her doorstep, she was truly a winner in life.
Now there were rumors in the company that Chen Daisy was the daughter of an invisible tycoon who had recently unlocked her wealth and power.
Some also said Chen Daisy had latched onto a wealthy sugar daddy, who generously gifted her a top-tier luxury mansion.
Regardless of the rumors, Chen Daisy's social standing was completely different from before.
Chen Daisy didn't care what they said.
After all, she was the one living in the mansion; their words wouldn't change anything, it was just gossip from envious people.
As Chen Daisy hummed a song and walked into the luxurious mansion, she found Li Qinghe sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking at the view.
Consequently, Chen Daisy's gear dropped all over the floor. By the time she rushed to Li Qinghe, the fully armed warrior had become a bare civilian.
When Little Secretary Emily returned, she saw Chen Daisy gazing into the distance by the window.
The opera she was singing could only be described with one word: 'off-key'.
Fortunately, Li Qinghe had been guiding her from behind.
Seeing Emily enter, Chen Daisy looked at her with pleading eyes.
Because before Emily returned, her voice was already almost hoarse.
She had originally wanted to take a break, but conditions didn't allow it, so she could only continue singing.
Looking up at the blue sky, looking down at the earth, a vast ocean... yes, this definitely describes Singapore Island.
From this luxurious mansion, looking into the distance, one could even see ships sailing in the Strait of Malacca. The entire land being surrounded by water was absolutely true.
"Emily, quickly come and help me sing for a bit, I'm a little tired of singing."
Chen Daisy finally asked for help.
"But I'm not very good at singing," the Little Secretary said, a bit hesitant seeing Chen Daisy singing opera.
"Then let's recite ancient poems."
"No commoners come and go..."
Pilot Bai Ding applies to join... Li Qinghe had already made plans. Tonight, he would stay up all night singing with Chen Daisy and Emily.
Tomorrow, he would spend the day with Lilia.
The day after tomorrow, he would brief his cousin Zhang Rui on some matters and then fly to Hanoi, also letting Zhang Rui take the maybach on Orchard Road.
Girls didn't like this car, but for men, it was a favorite.
Perhaps Zhang Rui would drive it to work, and this car would be even better than his boss's.
Additionally, he would arrange an apartment on Orchard Road for Zhang Rui, where he could live with Su Yao.
Of course, if he wanted to bring others to live there, as long as he could manage it, Li Qinghe had no objections.
After all, luxury cars and mansions were arranged; the rest was up to Zhang Rui himself... Working non-stop for three consecutive days, only Li Qinghe's strengthened body could handle it.
When he went to find Zhang Rui, he came out of Lilia's apartment alone.
College students were not so materialistic for the time being, and Lilia didn't demand luxury mansions or cars.
Although Li Qinghe could certainly afford them, he still preferred to have a simple relationship with Lilia and the others.
Of course, no luxury cars or mansions were arranged.
However, Li Qinghe bought Lilia some luxury goods, just like Shen Jiaxuan; some clothes and bags were arranged.
Although Lilia wasn't that materialistic, she was very happy to receive luxury goods.
After all, girls would more or less have some vanity, and there would be corresponding comparisons at school.
Luxury goods bought by her boyfriend were much better than luxury goods bought by sugar daddies, right?
So, Lilia's wardrobe now included several LV and Chanel bags, as well as Dior dresses.
These were all bought by Li Qinghe when he took her shopping in the Orchard Road commercial district.
This shopping spree almost made Nina so envious that she wanted to join the team.
Wasn't this the rich and handsome second-generation rich they had always wanted to find? They hadn't expected Lilia to find him. Envy couldn't be described in just one word.
But Li Qinghe was not interested in Nina, who had deep green stripes, for the time being; he disliked the path of too many like-minded people.
When Lilia learned that Li Qinghe was going back to Hanoi first and then returning to Chinese language for the New Year, she simply pressed herself against Li Qinghe, making him promise to remember to come back and see her after the New Year.
The sadness of parting goes without saying. Anyway, a girl with half Indian blood, when she got stubborn, was incredibly stubborn.
The entire dorm was filled with Lilia frantically practicing conversations loudly in English and Hindi.
Later, she started reciting Chinese language history and culture.
First, Susan couldn't stand it and left in the middle of the night to find someone to put out the 'fire'.
Then Nina, after washing her quilt in the middle of the night, also went out to find someone.
Only a reckless Lilia remained in the entire dorm.
Li Qinghe could feel Lilia's reluctance and naturally fulfilled her request to review Chinese language history.
Especially through detailed information, he allowed Lilia to clearly understand the changes in the size of Chinese language territory and every important node.
Who else but me will spread Chinese language culture~~
Li Qinghe's domineering explanation deeply impressed Lilia.
As a result, when Li Qinghe left the next day, she was still asleep, but a slight smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, likely still immersed in the long history and culture of Chinese language.
Driving from Geylang to Chinatown, Li Qinghe picked up Zhang Rui downstairs at the apartment building, also picking up Su Yao along the way.
They both took the morning off today because Li Qinghe wanted to take them to see the luxury apartment on Orchard Road.
They might live there in the future.
Especially Zhang Rui, who would also have a maybach he could drive anytime, was almost smiling so much that his face was wrinkling.
Su Yao was also secretly happy. She had set her sights on Zhang Rui, but never expected that one day he would be taken to new heights by his cousin.
If that were the case, settling down and starting a family in Singapore in the future was not out of the question.
