Chapter 233: Chapter 180 LiveHouse_2 Chapter 233: Chapter 180 LiveHouse_2 “I really can’t make it, you guys have fun.”

“Uh-huh, I’ll see what I can do.”

After hanging up, Tian Jing stuck out her rosy little tongue, feeling somewhat sheepish.

She had told Qi Wen earlier that she would attend tonight.

Later, when she found out Tang Song was coming to the private event, it completely slipped her mind to inform her.

“What’s wrong, Jing?” Tang Song asked with concern.

Tian Jing smiled and said, “It’s nothing, just some colleagues put together a gathering and asked me to join, but we can ignore it.”

Just then, a deep male voice sounded from beside them: “Tang Song, Jingjing.”

Looking up, she saw Tian Chengye approaching.

“What is it, Dad?”

Tang Song politely said, “Chairman Tian.”

Tian Chengye nodded at him and smiled, “There’s a pretty important team building event at Jinxiu Commerce, and it would be good for Jingjing’s development at the company if you have time to accompany her there.”

His gaze towards Tang Song had softened a lot from the beginning.

Throughout the private event, aside from boasting, he had been observing the other.

The performance was very impressive; communication skills, cognitive thinking, and a sense of proportion were all well handled, not to mention the confidence and clear objectives. He quickly gained the favor of many, showing none of the awkwardness or confusion that young people his age usually displayed at business gatherings.

He was indeed promising material.

After a moment of thought, Tang Song said, “I’m fine with it, it depends on Jing.”

Tonight was indeed free of other commitments, and he still had the “social life” task, which he might just complete with a bit of luck.

Tian Jing pouted and said, a bit annoyed, “Dad, you promised that as long as I accompanied you to the private event, I wouldn’t have to go there. How can you go back on your word now!”

“Jingjing.” Tian Chengye shook his head, “Think it over. The private event is almost over. You can either come home with me or go to the team building with Tang Song.”

He knew his daughter too well; nothing he said would work now.

He could only subtly persuade her by having Tang Song accompany her.

As a father, he really was doing everything he could to pave the way for his daughter.

“Um… ”

Tian Jing blinked and suddenly realized that if they went to the Livehouse together, she could have fun with Tang Song until late into the night.

After all, it was a bar, and if she drank too much and something little happened, it wouldn’t be her fault.

She bit her lip, somewhat coyly said, “Alright, I really should socialize more with colleagues, and I don’t want to go home so early anyway.”

“Mm.” Tian Chengye smiled, then continued, “Tang Song, now that you kind of have this CTO role, it’s a good entry point. These people may be just ordinary middle management for now, but they have complex and significant backing.”

Mingling appropriately won’t hurt; it will be beneficial for your future development.

“I’ve already arranged for a driver to wait at the door, so you guys can get ready and head over.”

“Got it, Dad.”

“Jing, wait for me a sec; I’ll go say goodbye over there,” said Tang Song, turning toward the wine-tasting area.

Walking past a screen, he saw Xie Shuyu chatting with a few men and women.

Sitting on a mahogany chair, legs crossed, her fair and graceful face slightly flushed, perhaps from drinking quite a bit.

“President Su, President Zhao, President Li…” Tang Song greeted the familiar faces with a smile.

He bowed slightly, speaking softly, “Shuyu, are you okay?”

Xie Shuyu put down her wineglass and, looking up at his handsome face, smiled, “Having a few extra drinks occasionally is fine; it’s about time Min is waiting in the car, and I’ll take you home in a bit.”

Tang Song replied, “No need to bother about me. I have a team building to attend at the company tonight with Tian Jing. We’re leaving shortly.”

Xie Shuyu’s eyes flickered, and after a moment of silence, she cheerfully said, “Then be careful on the road, remember to take your phone; goodbye.”

“Goodbye~” Tang Song smiled at her and said his farewells to the others before turning to leave.

Watching his dashing back, Su Ping clicked her tongue, “Tang Song really is outstanding; no wonder Chairman Tian’s daughter took a liking to him.”

When she had first met this neatly dressed, handsome young man, she had harbored some small intentions.

After all, his appearance and demeanor were both exceptional; now she dared not entertain such thoughts anymore.

Xie Shuyu pressed her lips together, her feelings complex, not knowing exactly what she was fantasizing about.

If Tang Song could end up together with Tian Chengye’s daughter, it would be beneficial both for him and as his friend, for her.

It meant her “investment” in him would yield substantial returns.

But somehow, she just couldn’t be happy about it.

…

“Click—” The car door closed gently.

The black Maybach S480 slowly started and moved into the misty night.

The bright yellow streetlamps streaked by, flashing, casting intermittent light and darkness inside the silent car.

Tang Song surveyed the surroundings, comparing them with his own Mercedes-Benz S450.

Overall, it looked similar but was more luxurious and refined.

For instance, there was more metal and wood integration, and a rear entertainment system.

Jing shifted closer to the middle, breathing in his scent and sneakily admiring his gracefully interlaced hands.

Tiantian said, “Song, thank you for specially coming out with me.”

“It’s no problem; I really wanted to chat and have dinner with you anyway. Today’s encounter was quite nice.”

Looking at Jing’s sweet face, Tang Song’s gaze involuntarily fell on her rosy lips.

He wondered if he’d have a chance to sample her fluids tonight to see the buffs she carried.
