I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?! -
Chapter 656: Teasing
Chapter 656: Chapter 656: Teasing
Maybe there really was a kind of fate between the two of them. He wanted to tease the girl a bit, so smiling, he said,
"Right, you have some things to take care of at home, right? If you need anything, just say it straight. I’ll definitely help you out. Don’t you agree?
You rushed out so hastily; you need to be a bit more careful. What if you twist your ankle later? I wanted to leave just to give you some more time to go back and practice well. Aren’t you supposed to perform on stage tonight?"
Don’t think too highly of others; you still need to be careful. If, at some point, someone surpasses you... it’s great that you’re good-looking. But those moves you’re taught by the physique teacher aren’t good; you need to correct them yourself. Then you won’t embarrass yourself on stage, and now you still have time.
I hope you can take the top spot tonight. It would make all the investment I poured into you worthwhile. I’m very optimistic about your prospects; otherwise, why would I have directly confronted Lin Yun earlier? You must do better than her to prove that my judgment was not wrong. When I went out just now, that woman looked like she wanted to tear me apart.
It was truly terrifying. You really need to perform well; don’t let her mock me, saying I have bad taste for choosing you over her. Don’t you agree?" Shen Dong was also teasing the kid. Saying such things usually left Lin Qi dumbfounded, hardly believing that Shen Dong would talk to her this way, asking her to perform well.
Can I really do it? From earlier until now, I haven’t learned the moves well. What if I perform poorly and disappoint him? Just thinking about it makes me very scared and a bit hesitant.
Seeing Lin Qi like this, Shen Dong knew she was lacking confidence, so he decided to give her a bit of encouragement, placing his hand on her shoulder, and said softly, "Let me tell you, if you win first place this time, I will give you a gift. Whatever you ask for, I will provide. How tempting is that?
Whatever luxury car you want, I promise, as long as you can win first place. Whatever it is, I’ll buy it for you. It all depends on whether your abilities are strong enough. I hope you won’t embarrass me. Even if your skills aren’t up to par, your face is quite special, and your figure is strong too, along with this contrast.
If I were a man, I would invest in you every day," Shen Dong said with a smile, comforting her. After he finished speaking, Lin Qi’s complexion indeed improved. She chuckled and said,
"You always tease me. How could you possibly invest in me? I think you would definitely invest in someone else. With so many beautiful women around, I really have no confidence that you would invest in me. I won’t get my hopes up anymore. Don’t tease me anymore. If I take it seriously,
and you don’t follow through, I will be very sad." As Lin Qi spoke despondently, Shen Dong was startled as well. Alright, maybe he had said too much. If he couldn’t follow through, he might upset a woman. Instead, he should just be a profit-seeking businessman as usual, acting on impulse without making too many promises.
It’s better not to make promises he couldn’t keep. He didn’t respond to Lin Qi’s words, who obviously felt a bit sad. But then she thought, if it was never hers to begin with, what was there to be sad about? Maybe she should just let go and do what needs to be done. With that thought, her mood significantly improved, and she became less concerned about gaining a little.
If it was originally non-existent and she managed to gain a little, wouldn’t it be a profit? With this in mind, she had plenty of time to earn these things. So, she smiled at Shen Dong and said, "Then I won’t ask you to invest in me now. What I want now is for you to come and watch my performance tonight. It’s my first show, after all.
If I rank first, just give me a small reward. As for what the reward would be, I haven’t thought it through yet. Is it agreed? If you agree, I’ll go back and train well, and perform well tonight. Plus, if I am tired from performing later, you should also prepare dinner for me.
It’s so late already; you should just rest here. Let’s return after the show is over. This bar needs you, too. What’s the point of going back every day? You are the boss; how can you be so irresponsible? If I were your employee, I would slack off every day since you wouldn’t know anyway. Isn’t this place your own effort?"
After Lin Qi questioned him this way, Shen Dong also felt that what she said made sense. Considering the time, Kang Yue should already be asleep by then. Well, better forget about these things and just hire a caretaker to watch over Kang Yue. Having a caretaker there would be somewhat reassuring. He decided to stay and check on the bar.
It had been a long time since he had inspected this place, and he wasn’t sure about the security environment here, nor was he aware of how the women looked performing in their outfits. Wait, no need to hire a caretaker. Wasn’t there someone readily available he could ask to help? That was Tang Yuchan. Thinking this, he immediately called Tang Yuchan.
Tang Yuchan was at home, idly cracking sunflower seeds while enjoying the latest TV series. She was thoroughly enjoying her evening until the boss’s call came through. Seeing his number, she sensed something was up, and it probably wasn’t good news. She was hesitant to answer.
But after several calls back to back, she couldn’t put it off any longer and had to reluctantly pick up the phone. She greeted him with an obsequious laugh, saying, "What’s up, boss? Why are you calling? I just got out of the shower and didn’t see my phone ringing."
After explaining, she spoke with a particularly gentle tone, fearful that her boss wouldn’t believe her and would ask her to go back to work overtime. She had finally managed to take a day off to watch TV dramas and enjoy life.
Yet, in the end, she couldn’t escape being called. When Shen Dong heard Tang Yuchan say this, revealing a slight quiver in her voice, he knew she was lying, but he didn’t correct her.
