When the wife is flirting, the master indulges her unbridledly
Chapter 436: Polite
Seeing her insistence, the servant said nothing more, but took her to the door. After confirming through the peephole, the servant asked: "Outside is Assistant Xu and a young woman. I want to give them something." Open the door?"
The woman outside the door is Li Shishi, the company's financial director. She is wearing a white Hong Kong-style polka-dot chiffon top paired with a pair of light-colored tight jeans. She looks very elegant.
It was only when the servant saw that her collar was lowered to her chest that she realized that this woman would do nothing good in the house.
And Li Shishi stood behind Xu Cong, obviously because they hadn't opened the door for a long time, with an undisguised look of impatience on her face.
"Woman?" Xia Qingrou said to herself with some doubts.
After thinking about it in her mind but unable to find a suitable candidate, Xia Qingrou stopped worrying and turned back to the servant and said, "Let them come in."
After getting Xia Qingrou's consent, the servant stepped forward and opened the door.
When Xu Cong saw the servant, he smiled politely and nodded at her.
Then he walked in, followed closely by Li Shishi.
"Hello, madam." After Xu Cong entered the door, he saw Xia Qingrou not far away.
"He's upstairs, you go up." Xia Qingrou knew that Xu Cong must have something to do with him when he came home so early, so she said straight to the point.
"Okay." Xu Cong nodded.
Then he introduced to Xia Qingrou: "This is the company's financial director Li Shishi. When I came here, I met her outside the Shi family manor. I said I had something to discuss with Mr. Shi, so I brought her here."
Xia Qingrou extended a hand to Li Shishi with a smile and said, "Hello, Miss Li."
"Hello." Li Shishi's eyes fell on Xia Qingrou's white hands, which were still stained with a little porridge, and an unhappy look flashed between her eyebrows.
But since she was Shi Fuxun's wife, Li Shishi reluctantly held her hand.
"Young madam, I'll go up and find Mr. Shi first." Xu Cong said hurriedly, then turned to Li Shishi behind him and said, "Wait here downstairs."
A gentle smile appeared on Li Shishi's face: "I know, you go ahead."
After Xu Cong's figure disappeared from their eyes, Xia Qingrou politely said to Li Shishi: "Sit inside."
"Okay, trouble." Li Shishi is a highly educated woman, so she is more outstanding than other women in speaking and doing things in person.
But towards the woman in front of her, Xia Qingrou always felt an inexplicable feeling in her heart, which was strange but hard to explain.
She shook her head gently to get her thoughts out of her mind, thinking that it was probably because she had been at home for so long that she had such absurd thoughts.
After the two came to the living room.
Xia Qingrou ordered her servants to get Li Shishi a cup of hot tea and some desserts: "You haven't had breakfast yet, let's eat something to cushion your stomach."
Li Shishi also smiled generously and said, "I was in a hurry when I went out in the morning and didn't have time to eat."
After a pause, he continued: "I have been waiting outside for a while, and I do feel a little hungry now."
Li Shishi reached out to pick up the water glass, then looked at the delicious desserts on the table and said with a smile, "Then I'm welcome."
"Please use it slowly." Xia Qingrou made a gentle gesture of invitation.
Li Shishi silently looked at Xia Qingrou while eating, and saw that her hair was a little messy at this time, her clothes were just casual home clothes, and her face was bare-faced.
Probably because of Xia Qingrou's bad complexion, in Li Shishi's opinion, Xia Qingrou and Lin Zhi were not on the same level.
She originally thought that Shi Fuxun's vision would lead to choosing a very outstanding woman to live with, but the moment she saw Xia Qingrou, she suddenly felt that Shi Fuxun's vision was just like that.
Li Shishi withdrew her gaze, lowered her head and continued to eat the dessert, but she smiled calmly at the corner of her mouth.
The two sat in silence for a long time. In order to break the awkward atmosphere, Li Shishi slowly said: "The Shi family manor is so grand. Are you and Mr. Shi the only two people living here?"
A faint smile appeared on Xia Qingrou's face: "It should be said that we are a family of four."
"It's good. You don't have to live with your mother-in-law, and you can have some leisure time." Li Shishi said quietly, but she was extremely envious in her heart.
Xia Qingrou smiled and did not answer this, because Shi Fuxun was never willing to mention his mother, and that woman was not his biological mother, so she had nothing to say to outsiders.
Seeing that she didn't answer, Li Shishi immediately pretended to be distressed and said, "I'm sorry, I was unreasonable and asked something I shouldn't have asked."
"Are the pastries still to your taste?" Xia Qingrou did not answer her directly, but chose to change the subject and asked.
She held the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in her hand, nodded gently, and then made her own evaluation: "The sweet-scented osmanthus is well chosen, but I feel that the ingredients used in it are a bit bran, and the texture is not smooth enough when eaten, but the overall taste is good, especially the... It’s better to have a sip of hot tea after eating this.”
Xia Qingrou somewhat admired her outspoken character, but Shi Fuxun asked the servants to make the sweet-scented osmanthus cake according to Xia Qingrou's taste. The ingredients in it were all selected by him and then added I specially sent the servants to learn from those top cooking chefs.
The sweet-scented osmanthus cake presented now is Xia Qingrou's favorite taste, with a bit of a grainy feeling, which can make Xia Qingrou always remember the hardships she has endured.
"I didn't expect you to be so considerate." When Xia Qingrou looked up again, she had already put on an approving smile.
Li Shishi looked at the woman in front of her meaningfully, and saw that her eyes were wrapped in gauze, and her red lips were slightly raised: "This may be a habit that has been gradually formed after being a financial director for many years. Life is like every transaction of the company. As long as you carefully discover projects, you can always find those flaws."
As she spoke, she looked in the direction outside the living room, and then murmured to herself: "Mr. Shi and Assistant Xu didn't know why they were chatting upstairs for so long without coming down."
"Auntie, make me a cup of green tea." Xia Qingrou leaned back slightly and said to the servant in a lazy voice.
Xia Qingrou usually took good care of these servants, so seeing Li Shishi acting like she was the mistress made those servants feel very unhappy.
"The young master said that you are cold and cannot drink too much green tea, and your body has not recovered yet. I'd better listen to the young master and make you some Pu'er tea?" the servant said to Li Shishi in a deliberately long voice.
The servants hoped that Li Shishi could understand the true meaning of their words and let her quit as soon as possible.
