Chapter 809 387: The Surprise for Yuan Mengqi Has Arrived! (2)

Sure enough, Jiang Tao just transferred 400,000 to him!

"First, use it to pay off the bank debt. You can take your time repaying me; consider it an interest-free loan from me."

Jiang Tao reached out again and patted Li Fei on the shoulder, his face radiating a heartwarming smile.

Considering this treasure of an employee who made him 2 million before even officially starting, along with their friendship of over a decade,

giving him 400,000 to resolve his debt crisis was no big deal for Jiang Tao.

As for the interest the 400,000 would have accrued over the next few years…

Jiang Tao really didn't care for that amount of money right now.

A few years down the road, he'd easily have assets amounting to several small fortunes, at least.

By then, that bit of interest wouldn't mean much at all to him!

"Brother Tao, I, I..."

Li Fei looked at Jiang Tao, full of gratitude, feeling that no words could adequately express his current emotions.

Jiang Tao interrupted with a smile: "No need to say anything. From now on, just focus on doing well with me. You're going to be my right-hand man in the future."

Li Fei said excitedly, "I will, Brother Tao! I'd even give my life for you without hesitation!"

"Get lost, get lost, hurry up and scram."

"What era do you think this is? Still talking about giving your life and spilling your blood. Enough of this talk, I'm leaving."

Jiang Tao scolded playfully and then turned and walked away with flair, striding towards the hotel's main entrance.

"Brother Tao, meeting you and working under you in my lifetime is worth it!"

As Jiang Tao walked away, his departing figure suddenly seemed incredibly grand and towering in Li Fei's eyes.

...

Entering the hotel,

Jiang Tao took the elevator to the 16th floor and arrived at the door of Room 1601.

Knock, knock, knock——

Creak~

Just as Jiang Tao reached out to knock on the door, Yuan Mengqi, who had been waiting behind it, swung it open and pulled him into the room.

Upon entering, Jiang Tao saw Yuan Mengqi wearing a faintly revealing, light pink gauze dress with a Republic of China style.

Yuan Mengqi's fair skin looked even fairer against the gauzy dress.

"Is this the surprise you mentioned on the way?"

Seeing Yuan Mengqi dressed like this, Jiang Tao chuckled and lifted her chin.

Their eyes met, and Yuan Mengqi's eyes were so watery they could almost drip.

"Do you like it, brother?"

Yuan Mengqi's voice calling him brother made Jiang Tao feel a tingling sensation all over.

He expressed his thoughts with more than an hour of concrete action.

Initially, Yuan Mengqi was somewhat unconvinced, but finally, she relented and sang "Conquer" while on her knees.

Ring ring ring——

At 5 p.m.,

a ringtone from a cellphone interrupted Jiang Tao and Yuan Mengqi's whispering on the bed.

Jiang Tao picked up the phone from the bedside table and saw the caller ID was "Li Ming." He swiped his finger to answer it.

"Brother Tao! Those two you wanted..."

As soon as the call connected, Li Ming's voice, filled with excitement, came through the phone.

However, before he could finish a sentence, Jiang Tao pressed a button to hang up the call.

"What's up, Brother Tao? Whose call was it?"

Resting lazily on Jiang Tao's arm, Yuan Mengqi saw his reaction and asked curiously.

"It's nothing. Hurry and get dressed; I have a surprise for you tonight."

Jiang Tao patted Yuan Mengqi's bottom with a smile, urging her to get dressed soon.

"Surprise? What surprise? Brother Tao, tell me, I want to know now."

Yuan Mengqi held Jiang Tao's face in her hands, looking impatient.

"You'll find out when we get there. It won't take long."

Jiang Tao raised his eyebrows, an expression showing he'd keep his lips sealed no matter what.

Soon, they were both dressed.

Yuan Mengqi also carefully packed the gauzy dress that Jiang Tao had torn apart into a bag she had brought with her.

Once they were ready, they took the elevator downstairs and left, using the hotel's designated Mercedes-Benz for customer service.

Around 6 p.m.,

the Mercedes-Benz arrived at Old Li's Used Cars on South Third Ring Road.

Of course, Old Li's Used Cars was now run by this Xiao Li, Li Ming, instead of Old Li.

"Brother Tao! Sister-in-law, good evening!"

After receiving a message from Jiang Tao on WeChat, Li Ming had been waiting at the shop for their arrival.

"Good evening, Li Ming."

Hearing Li Ming call her sister-in-law made Yuan Mengqi very happy, and she greeted him with a smile.

Jiang Tao asked with a smile, "Where's the stuff?"

"Brother Tao, sister-in-law, let me show you. This way, please."

Li Ming, smiling, gestured for them to follow him and led the way.

The three of them chatted as they walked and soon reached a warehouse.

In the warehouse, two cars were covered tightly with cloth.

Seeing this, Yuan Mengqi realized what surprise Jiang Tao had for her.

It was clearly a car!

She had been in Beijing for about a month, and she usually took taxis. She indeed needed a car for commuting.

Jiang Tao smiled and looked at Yuan Mengqi, saying, "Mengqi, these two cars are just about the same. Choose one."

"Left for men, right for women. I'll pick the one on the right!"

Yuan Mengqi giggled and said, walking toward the car on the right.

There was no need to be polite with Jiang Tao anymore.

They were as good as a couple, only short of a certificate, so it wasn't necessary.

Swoosh~

Yuan Mengqi vigorously pulled the cover off the car.

When she saw the majestic, steel-beast-like Cayenne under the cover, her jaw dropped in astonishment!

A Porsche Cayenne!

It turned out to be a Porsche Cayenne!

She originally thought it would just be a car worth two or three hundred thousand as a daily commuter.

She didn't expect Jiang Tao to give her a Cayenne worth nearly a million!

"Brother Tao..."

Yuan Mengqi turned to look at Jiang Tao, her eyes instantly welling up with tears, feeling enormously touched.

"Sister-in-law, this is a brand-new imported Porsche Cayenne that Brother Tao asked me to order for you, and the configuration is..."

Li Ming started to introduce the configuration and price of the Cayenne in detail nearby.

He was also worried that Yuan Mengqi might misunderstand it as a used car.

That would ruin Brother Tao's chance to show off in front of Sister-in-law!

"Brother Tao, why did you buy such an expensive car? A regular one costing fifteen or twenty thousand would do just fine; I'm not a great driver."

Yuan Mengqi returned to Jiang Tao's side, holding his arm, her eyes filled with emotions.

"No matter how expensive it is, it's not worth even a fraction of you. As long as you like it, even if you want the stars in the sky, I'd find a way to get them for you."

Jiang Tao looked down gently at Yuan Mengqi, saying sweet words that were like a drug to women.

These deceitful words might make men call nonsense if they hear them, but they work wonders on women.

They wouldn't care whether your grand promises are achievable; having the intention is enough.

Sure enough.

Yuan Mengqi was instantly moved beyond measure by Jiang Tao's words.

In a moment of passion, Yuan Mengqi only had Jiang Tao in her eyes, and she gave him a passionate kiss.

"..."

Caught off guard, Li Ming ended up feeling like a third wheel, engulfed in waves of affection.

"Uh-oh, I've become a part of Brother Tao and Sister-in-law's play!"

After a long, passionate kiss, Yuan Mengqi finally realized Li Ming was there, turning beet-red with embarrassment.

Li Ming clapped his hands, praising, "Brother Tao and Sister-in-law truly are a loving couple, a match made in heaven. I'm so envious!"

Jiang Tao laughed and said, "You little rascal, enough with the nonsense. Where are the keys?"

"Here they are."

Li Ming took the car keys for the vehicle Yuan Mengqi chose out of a folder he was holding and handed them to Jiang Tao.

After taking the car keys, Jiang Tao tried the car out with Yuan Mengqi on the spot.

Yuan Mengqi was driving a luxury car like the Cayenne for the first time, so she was initially a bit nervous, with stiff hands and feet.

After driving several loops in the spacious internal roads of Old Li's Used Cars, she gradually relaxed.

After a dozen laps, Yuan Mengqi was driving quite competently.

After getting familiar with the vehicle, Jiang Tao and Yuan Mengqi invited Li Ming for a meal at a nearby Five Stars hotel.

Jiang Tao also asked their mutual friend Zhang Bo to join them.

At 7:30 p.m.,

with Zhang Bo and his girlfriend, Tong Mengyao, arriving fashionably late and knocking on the private room door,

everyone invited that evening had arrived.

The meal was full of joy, and the atmosphere was indeed very harmonious.
