Chapter 369 Asking for blessings

Chapter 369 Asking for blessings
There was a business building across the street from the hotel. Xu Mingyuan originally wanted to go home, but Tao Shuxin, who had finally escaped from her routine of going to and from work, insisted on going to broaden her horizons.

No matter what she said about broadening her horizons, the little girl just wanted to have fun.

Su Muqing was not in a hurry either. She had been in contact with Xu Mingyuan for a long time. No matter what topic they talked about, he could give an answer. No matter whether the answer was right or wrong, it was not difficult to see that he was a very good talker.

Su Muqing guessed that Xu Mingyuan's cold attitude towards unfamiliar people was probably to ward off some people who were greedy for money and to avoid some unnecessary trouble.

And Xu Mingyuan really likes stress testing.

When they first met, Xu Mingyuan would say hello to everyone and treat every unfamiliar person equally and friendly.

If they are useful talents who can help the company, Xu Mingyuan will kindly invite them to join his team. But if they are not the talents he needs, his stress test will begin.

If the person tries to be polite again when they meet for the second time, he will act arrogantly as a superior to test the other person's true intentions.

Most people would choose to leave at this step. After all, people's self-esteem is limited, not to mention the arrogance from a young man. Not many people would really put aside their face and shamelessly cling to him.

Su Muqing herself is probably somewhere in between the two. She is not the person Xu Mingyuan needs, but she can still help a little.

After enduring several rounds of stress tests, Xu Mingyuan saw some shining points in himself and felt that he was useful and worthy of being exposed.

But Qin Man is different. In Xu Mingyuan's eyes, she probably belongs to the second type of useless person.

Su Muqing knew one thing very well, that is, having a beautiful appearance is useless and meaningless in the eyes of people like Xu Mingyuan.

In an age where money is everything, beautiful vases line up to buy things as long as you can afford the price, not to mention high-quality young people like Xu Mingyuan who are handsome, wealthy, and promising at a young age.

At least Su Muqing has not found anyone who can compare to Xu Mingyuan's excellence so far. Even if he is half as good as him, it would still be far beyond her reach.

Su Muqing is not a fool. She was able to give such a high evaluation of Xu Mingyuan, not only because of his uniqueness, but also because of everything that happened around him, which impressed her deeply.

Of course, Qin Man couldn't guess what Su Muqing was thinking. She only felt that she thought Xu Mingyuan was a benevolent person and perhaps had some ability.

But what puzzled Qin Man was, is it necessary to put in so much effort?

Qin Man had an average impression of Xu Mingyuan. If it weren't for Su Muqing, she wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to Xu Mingyuan.

Qin Man also threw aside Xu Mingyuan's suggestion to renovate the Japanese restaurant without even thinking about it.

Change it to a buffet? He has the nerve to suggest it!

Regardless of whether it is useful or not, Qin Man cannot accept the fact that it has lost value.

Xu Mingyuan was too lazy to pay attention to this self-confident little girl. The rich girl's family had the money to afford the compensation, and he would not have the leisure to step out to stop it. After all, returning money to society was also a contribution, so it would be better if she compensated more.

……

The bowling alley on the eleventh floor of the business building.

Xu Mingyuan naturally knows how to play bowling, one of the four major gentleman sports, but he only knows the basics.

The reason why this thing is popular in China is that it is made by a small circle of rich people. After all, the social atmosphere of poor people suddenly getting rich is still preserved in this era. As long as ordinary people can't afford it, they think it is high-end and classy.

Even a country bumpkin like Xu Mingyuan who works in real estate and doesn't want to go with the flow will be pulled in by others to participate.

"Hey, Brother Yuanyuan, the bowling ball is so heavy, how do you throw it?"

Tao Shuxin, who was visiting the bowling alley for the first time, saw Xu Mingyuan picking up the bowling ball with ease. She also tried to pick one up, but almost stumbled. She quickly reached out and grabbed the ball.

"Ha, isn't that easy? Just throw it like that."

Xu Mingyuan said casually, took a step forward and threw the ball into the lane.

With a crisp "click" sound, the pins fell into the hole.

But Xu Mingyuan's throw was a little off, and it only hit the side of the ball pile. After the collision, six pins were knocked over, otherwise he would have been considered lucky if he had knocked over three.

"Tsk, I thought you were so awesome, but there are still four left? You're so stupid."

Seeing that Xu Mingyuan was having fun, Tao Shuxin smiled and her eyes sparkled. Now she could teach him a lesson.

"Then you throw one and let me see how powerful you are?" Xu Mingyuan said with a sneer.

"Who are you looking down on? Look at me..."

Tao Shuxin threw the bowling ball with great effort, but it fell into the slide beside before it rolled far on the lane.

"hehe."

Xu Mingyuan sneered.

"It doesn't count this time. The ball is too heavy and I don't have as much strength as you."

Seeing that he was looked down upon by Xu Mingyuan, Tao Shuxin, who had a strong desire to win, immediately found an excuse.

"There are light items under the shelf. Isn't the weight written on them? What are you looking at?" Xu Mingyuan said.

"Really?" Tao Shuxin bent down to pick up a ball, weighed it in his hand, nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, this one is not bad. Why didn't you tell me earlier when you saw it? Who are you?"

After complaining about Xu Mingyuan, Tao Shuxin threw the ball with full confidence.

As expected, the bowling ball fell crookedly onto the slide as soon as it left his hand.

Seeing Xu Mingyuan throw the ball in a straight line so easily, Tao Shuxin felt a little embarrassed and muttered softly, "This time it was an accident."

As the next ball also fell into the slide, Tao Shuxin was too embarrassed to say anything this time, and immediately picked up another ball and threw it out.

After the last ball was released from his hand, Tao Shuxin finally threw the bowling ball into the last hole.

Unfortunately, he just didn’t touch the ball.

"Wow! Xu Mingyuan, you were definitely lucky just now, throw another one for me!"

Tao Shuxin thought bowling was simple, but when she actually threw it, she found that it was not as simple as she imagined. If the bowling ball rotates in the wrong direction, it will fall into the slide and there is no way to go straight.

"Ha, if I throw a few more, won't I be better than you?"

Xu Mingyuan would never tell Tao Shuxin that he had the foundation, because teasing the innocent and silly little girl was one of his few bad tastes.

Then he picked up the ball and threw it, but missed the little girl, making Xu Mingyuan a little embarrassed.

But Tao Shuxin didn't laugh at him. Although Xu Mingyuan didn't hit the pins, the bowling ball fell into the hole, which was much better than his own. Tao Shuxin, who didn't believe in evil, replaced it with a heavy ball that Xu Mingyuan used.

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. Tao Shuxin, who relied solely on luck, threw the ball even worse than before. The ball fell into the slide as soon as it left her hand. She could only watch the bowling ball roll slowly while crying.

Xu Mingyuan threw twice more and finally emptied the remaining balls. He started a new game and gave the little girl some gaming experience.

Bowling is very friendly to beginners and it takes only a short time to get the hang of it. Tao Shuxin threw the ball twice more and with a "pop", he finally hit the pile of balls.

"Hey! Look, look! I hit eight of them! You just hit six! I'm much better than you!"

Tao Shuxin jumped up with joy. She felt happy no matter what happened when she was playing with her beloved.

"Wow, that's awesome!"

Xu Mingyuan was never stingy with praise, and he praised the little girl as if she were a three-year-old child.

"That's right! Don't you see who I am?"

Couples in love are childish. Even if Xu Mingyuan's performance was too exaggerated, Tao Shuxin would happily accept his praise.

"Hey, Xiaoman, look, Xu Mingyuan's level is pretty good, right?"

Su Muqing, who was playing ball not far away, said to Qin Man beside her.

"Huh, what's so strange about this? A playboy like him, what hasn't he tried?"

"Xu Mingyuan is different from those people. I wanted to invite him to a party before, but it was very difficult to invite him. He came back disappointed after going once, so I never mentioned it again. Look at him and Tao Shuxin, they don't look like fun-loving people at all," Su Muqing defended.

"You can only know a person's face but not his heart. Who knows if he is one thing on the surface but another behind the scenes? How can I let you see what he is like in private?"

"Xu Mingyuan, he..."

Su Muqing wanted to say something, but she could see that Qin Man had already made up her mind. She felt that there was no point in arguing about these things and didn't want to explain any more.

"He what?"

Seeing that she stopped talking halfway, Qin Man asked.

"Nothing, can you go and teach Tao Tao? I have something to talk to Xu Mingyuan about."

"Haha, okay. It seems that you called me here just for this matter." Qin Man said indifferently.

On Xu Mingyuan's side, Tao Shuxin was still secretly learning other people's skills.

Seeing the little girl holding the ball foolishly, step by step, and finally stopping in place before throwing the ball, Xu Mingyuan was very happy.

"What a joke! That's how it was thrown!"

Seeing Xu Mingyuan making fun of her, Tao Shuxin poked him angrily.

"Taotao, you don't know how to do it? I can teach you." Qin Man walked over and said softly.

"Uh, thank you, senior. It's no trouble. I'm just playing around."

"It doesn't matter, we're just playing around." Qin Man picked up a ball and said, "You're holding the ball wrong. Holding the ball with your index finger will give it a spinning force, and you won't be able to throw it in a straight line... Look, do it like me, put your ring finger and middle finger into the ball, right, keep your balance..."

Qin Man explained the basics and then demonstrated it to Tao Shuxin.

As expected of a girl studying dance, Qin Man took off her coat and wore a tight-fitting top. Her four-step walking posture was extremely graceful. As the bowling ball rolled, she directly hit all ten balls.

"Oh! Senior Qin, you are so awesome!"

Tao Shuxin opened her eyes wide. She and Xu Mingyuan had been playing for a long time but neither had hit the target once. However, Qin Man hit it right away. It was obvious that she was a master.

"It's very simple to master the technique. Keep your arms flat and use your left hand to hold the ball. Otherwise, you'll get tired..."

Qin Man explained patiently. Compared with the arrogant Xu Mingyuan, the simple-minded Tao Shuxin was so likable.

Su Muqing took out a file bag from her bag and waved to Xu Mingyuan from a distance.

Xu Mingyuan understood and walked over, saying casually: "What's the matter, senior sister?"

"Didn't you say that I don't need such a good auditor? But I didn't lie to you. This is not my auditor. Here is their information. If you like someone, you can contact them privately, but I can't guarantee success... Um... I'll try my best to convince them."

Su Muqing handed over the file bag in her hand.

Xu Mingyuan casually pulled out the information, glanced at it and asked, "Isn't he a student of our school?"

"No, there are students from every school."

"There are twelve people, it's a big team. Who is the leader?" Xu Mingyuan asked.

"Well, the leader is Qin Man's brother, so he definitely won't come." Su Muqing said with a pout.

"She has a brother?"

"Yes, he's my brother, his name is Qin Zheng."

"Qin Zheng?"

The name sounded familiar to Xu Mingyuan, and he seemed to have some impression of it, but he was from Nanxi, and apart from his hometown, he had limited knowledge of Jiangcheng.

"is there a problem?"

Seeing Xu Mingyuan frowned, Su Muqing asked curiously.

"Uh, never mind. Hey, you better take care of yourself."

Good auditors are hard to find, but they do exist. Xu Mingyuan doesn't have to go out of his way to find someone. He put the information in his hand into a sealed bag and returned it to Su Muqing.

Su Muqing was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that the auditor that Xu Mingyuan wanted from her would be returned to her so easily.

Looking at Xu Mingyuan's back as he left, Su Muqing, holding the file bag, couldn't help but frown and think carefully about what he said.

It seemed as if Xu Mingyuan believed from the beginning to the end that something unexpected would happen to him.

Am I that bad...
