<h4>Chapter 234: Chapter 199: Extravagant Shopping, Foodie’s World (Please subscribe!)_1</h4><h4></h4>


    After Tang Qing left, the cashier who had been in a state of nervousness carefully asked, "Sister Meng, is he the owner of ourpany? He’s really young."


    Li Meng withdrew her gaze, smiled and nodded, "Yes, he’s the chairman of ourpany, Sheng Tang Apparel--- Tang Qing."


    She knew that Tang Qing was still in high school which was not a secret within Sheng Tang, but there was no need to promote it. When the managers found out their boss was still in high school, they felt their future was bleak, thinking thispany was merely a rich second generation’s toy, ready to be dropped or capriciouslymanded at any moment.


    However, the morale of the employees from the headquarters of Sheng Tang was not like this. They really recognized thispany and supported their elusive boss. This support did not seem toe from money.


    What she did not know was that during thest annual meeting of Sheng Tang, Tang Qingpletely won everyone over. His song, his muscle, his handsome, sunny smile, and his unfathomable financial strength, each made him "shine". Therefore, they all worked very enthusiastically. Although Tang Qing was rarely in thepany, his influence had already deeply affected everyone.


    However, Li Meng, who had not personally experienced it, felt it was a bit exaggerated even when she heard people from the headquarters talk about it. But his financial strength was indeed real, investing tens of millions and even hundreds of millions into thepany, giving them enough hope and confidence.


    "Our boss is really handsome and rich. By the way Sister Meng, do you know what the chairman’s family does?" said the cashier wistfully. The shop assistant who was packing just now was also expectantly looking at Li Meng, not because of any motive, but out of gossip.


    "I really don’t know," said Li Meng shaking her head. How could she casually give away the boss’s information, besides she truthfully did not know.


    She had previously thought Tang Qing was merely amon and negligent second-generation, but her impression of himpletely changed after today’s meeting. Young, wealthy, not arrogant, stable, and amiable, even though the time spent together was short, but she felt his persuasiveness.


    ...


    After cing the items, the three returned to the mall for more shopping.


    Dou Jiao, who had "bought" many clothes, had fully sated her desire. With the time gettingte, she stopped trying on clothes everywhere and followed Tang Qing to pick gifts for his family.


    At this time, Tang Qing discovered that picking gifts was the most troublesome. It couldn’t be too expensive or too cheap. If he bought something worth millions and said it was only thousands, the discerning people might give two or three thousand asking him to buy for them, which would be nonsense.


    "How about buying clothes for the aunts?"


    "...Not so good."


    "What about skincare products?"


    "That’s a good choice, alright, you pick."


    "..."


    "Little boss, the watch there looks really nice."


    "...Sis, please look at the price, it costs hundreds of thousands."


    "There are also cheap ones over there, just a few thousand, and they have women’s watches."


    "Okay, give me three of them."


    "..."


    "Quickly look, there’s a big bear inside."


    "But it’s too big, my car won’t be able to fit."


    "You can pay some delivery fee for them to send it back."


    "... If I buy this, will my sister still be able to sleep on her bed."


    "Hehe, that’s true, there are smaller ones here."


    "Yes, that’s fine, let’s buy three, my back seat should be full now."


    "Hey, there’s a stationery store here, buy some study supplies for your cousin. This brand is quite good, ourpany uses it for office supplies."


    "..."


    Clothing was off the list since they didn’t know the size, and even if study supplies were high-end, there was no doubt that Qin Shiqi would nag for hours, possibly even days, if she received them. Such nagging would certainly be a nightmare.


    Therefore, they ended up choosing some "universal" gifts such as jewelry and stuffed toys.


    Skincare products were for the three older women. Qin Shiqi, her sister, and Lin Jiaxue didn’t use them. The most Qin Shiqi would do was buy some lipstick and eyebrow pencils for a little self-entertainment. She also used them to tease her poor sister, Qin Shiyu, from time to time. And Lin Jiaxue? Tang Qing remembered that, to this day, she used only one type of all-purpose cosmetic product - Dabao SOD Honey.


    Anyway, Lin Jiaxue was naturally beautiful. Tang Qing, ustomed to seeing her without makeup, didn’t like her looking made up. He could always buy her cosmetics when she became more aware of makeup.


    They also visited the Dream Melody Group’s jewelry store located in the shopping mall and selected some pieces of jewelry. They didn’t buy anything too expensive, amounting to around a thousand dors. Dou Jiao chose a silver bracelet for each of the two cousins and Lin Jiaxue. Each bracelet was uniquely styled and quite beautiful.


    Seeing that Tang Qing and hispanions were choosing inexpensive items, the salesperson couldn’t help but scoff inwardly. However, he did not express this openly. The Group had just changed ownership and only the group’s headquarters and branch leaders had been reassigned. If a customerint affected the manager’s evaluation, the salesperson knew he would be in trouble. He breathed a sigh of relief in seeing Tang Qing’s ck card and realizing he had not acted improperly. Seeing his manager’s humble and respectful demeanor, he broke out in a cold sweat.


    "Boss, what are we eating for lunch?" Dou Jiao, having finished gift shopping, decided to expose her foodie side.


    "Whatever." Tang Qing replied.


    "How about Western cuisine?" Dou Jiao asked.


    "Don’t like it."


    "Japanese food?"


    "Don’t like it."


    "Korean barbecue?"


    "Don’t like it."


    "So, what do you want to eat?"


    "Chinese food." Tang Qing dered, dismissing his previous experiences with foreign food. He found it unexciting, novel, but not inferior, just different. Compared to the seemingly "nd" food of other countries, he preferred the tastiness of national cuisine. Was steak delicious? Not as good as street-side grilledmb skewers with cumin. He could eat hundred skewers and still want more.


    With this thought, he suddenly craved grilled meat.


    "..." Dou Jiao was at a loss. You said whatever, didn’t you?


    "Hey, there’s a Big te Chicken restaurant over there. Let’s go. They should have grilledmb skewers." Tang Qing noticed a Big te Chicken restaurant, recognized by its Hl sign. Pulling Dou Jiao’s arm, he hurriedly went towards it. His fond memory of Big te Chicken in Xin Province was so vivid that it still made him drool.


    Recalling grilledmb skewers dripping with juice, sprinkled with cumin and pepper, especially the fatty parts. One bite and themb fat would explode in your mouth, it’s simply too delicious.


    Seeing how excited Tang Qing was, Dou Jiao reluctantly let herself be "dragged" over.


    Once they walked in, Tang Qing couldn’t wait and said: "Boss, give me one, no, tworge te chickens, ten tes of belt noodle, and fifty skewers of roasted meat. That’s it."


    "Yes, sir, please wait a moment." The hat-wearing waiter responded with a smile.


    "Okay."


    Once ordering, Tang Qing found a random spot and took a seat — it wasn’t peak lunch hour yet, so the ce wasn’t crowded. He poured three cups of tea himself, not bothering to call over a waiter.


    "Boss, have you eaten Big te Chicken before?" Dou Jiao asked, seeing how familiar Tang Qing seemed. She knew it was his first time visiting the provincial capital, and there were no specialty restaurants in Qingyan City, at least none that she was aware of.


    "Had it once before." Tang Qing replied with a smile.


    "Oh, you do have taste. This ce has been open for several years, and I ate here before. The food is great." Dou Jiao nodded, speaking as someone who was knowledgeable about the food of each province. As a foodie, she had an impressive awareness of famous dishes, and Big te Chicken was no exception.


    About twenty minutester, their two servings of Big te Chicken were finally served. The warm aroma instantly enticed them to start eating. Dou Jiao made no pretense of manners and took arge chicken leg for herself, seemingly enjoying each bite. The chicken cooked over high heat was tender and not dry or greasy. The chicken used wasrger and fatter and cut intorger pieces for a satisfying bite.


    Over half an hourter, they finished eating everything on the table, not even sparing the green onions in the dish. Dou Jiao was nowying back on her chair,zily rubbing her stomach andining about needing to diet.
