After leaving Dingsheng Entertainment, Fu Shiqin drove her to a Thai restaurant that he knew about.
The dishes had just been served when Xu Qian called.
âSecond Master, something is wrong with the plan, Boss asked you to come home.â
âI am eating out, you have to let us eat.â Fu Shiqin snapped. âI have already informed you, so hurry up.â Xu Qian hung up without saying anything more.
Ling Jiao threw a look at him. âIf you are busy with work, you can go home early. I can go home after eating.â
âNo hurry, we still need to eat.â Fu Shiqin picked up the chopsticks and said as he ate, âIn order not to reveal any flaws, we need to find out what we both like and hate.â
Having heard his words, Ling Jiao sent a file to his phone.
âI thought of that too. I made a list last night, so you just need to take a look.â
Fu Shiqin clicked open the file and nodded.
âWhen I am done, I will make a list of my own and send it to you.â
âOkay,â Ling Jiao replied.
âOh yes, there is an important banquet the day after tomorrow, come with me,â Fu Shiqin said.
Ling Jiao frowned but still agreed.
âOkay, I will make sure Iâm ready.â
After they ate, Fu Shiqin drove her home.
âOh yes, do you know how to drive?â
âYes, I have had my driverâs license for years, but I sold my car last year,â Ling Jiao said honestly.
Hearing her words, Fu Shiqin drove over to a car dealership and gave her a card.
âSometimes, it will not be very convenient for me to pick you up. Pick a car for yourself.â
âI can take a taxi, thereâs no need.â Ling Jiao turned him down.
They were not a real couple, they were just cooperating with each other. She felt bad accepting such an expensive thing. âIf you, my girlfriend, are going on a date with me and you need to take a taxi, I will be so embarrassed if this gets out.â Fu Shiqin stuffed the card into her hands and said, âIt is not owned by you, you are just borrowing it from me, so that you can drive around.
After you buy the car, go to the mall and buy some clothes and accessories. Not only will I need you to accompany me at the banquet the day after tomorrow, I will also need you to accompany me to other events in the future.â
âAlright.â Ling Jiao did not turn him down.
She should not wear cheap clothes to the banquet or other occasions where she would meet people Fu Shiqin knows.
But she did not have the money to buy these things right now.
At most, she could just pay him back after the collaboration ended. âOh yes, you better pick out a birthday present.â Fu Shiqin stressed. âIsnât your birthday months away?â Ling Jiao asked.
They had exchanged information and she was sure that it would not be his birthday next week.
âIt is not for me, it is for my sister-in-law. It is my sister-in-lawâs birthday next week and she does not like any of the presents Fu Shiyi and I have given her before. You are a girl who understands how women think, so pick one...â
âYour sister-in-law?â Ling Jiao raised his eyebrows in astonishment.
She had heard him mention his brother and sister-in-law several times, but she had never heard of Fu Hanzheng getting married.
âYou will know when you meet her. Donât buy jewelry, my brother gives her diamonds and jewels all the time. It is boring, so just pick something valuable and meaningful,â Fu Shiqin said.
â...â Ling Jiao was speechless. That sounded like picking a gift was going to be rather annoying.
Fu Shiqin checked the time and turned on the engine.
âBuy the car and then go shopping. Wait for me at Fuâs Enterprise.â
â...Okay.â Ling Jiao agreed.
