Chapter 58: I Swear, This is the Last Time
Fang Wei immediately complained. “You’re willing to eat meat now that Brother Tang is here, but not with me.”
“Well, you have it now, don’t you? Stop complaining.” Feng Mengmeng said irritably. You’re getting a free meal.
Soon, fried meat with Lao Gan Ma and steaming hot rice were served, a true luxury. But the meat tasted a bit off, probably from being frozen for too long, losing its freshness.
After dinner, Tang Ze whistled and pressed the elevator button. It was almost seven o’clock, time to watch Sister Xi’s speech.
This life was quite comfortable.
As he appeared, people greeted him warmly, and some women even flirted with him. But Tang Ze wasn’t interested in them. His minimum requirement was someone like Mengmeng or Fang Wei. He was picky.
Feng Mengmeng, seeing him, seemed to pass by him casually, but whispered, “Come to my place tonight.”
Tang Ze shrugged. He didn’t know why he had become so popular since the apocalypse.
But he wasn’t interested in women who threw themselves at him.
Fu Qi was on the stage, and Tang Ze paused.
“Residents, CEO Xi isn’t feeling well today, so I’ll be speaking on her behalf.”
Tang Ze scratched his head. I should probably apologize to Sister Xi, so she doesn’t think I’m too rough.
He went to Xi Meng’s apartment and rang the doorbell.
Xi Meng saw him through the peephole. She was angry and didn’t want to open the door, but if he started overthinking things, her efforts would be wasted.
She opened the door, her face sullen, and walked back into the living room.
Tang Ze entered, looking embarrassed. “Sister Xi, I heard you weren’t feeling well, so I came to check on you.”
Xi Meng rolled her eyes. She had never been taken advantage of like this before. She was the one who usually played men, and Tang Ze was no exception, but the price she had paid was too high.
Tang Ze sat beside her and suddenly took her hand. Xi Meng was taken aback, her heart racing. She tried to pull her hand away, but couldn’t.
“If you continue like this, I’ll be angry! I already let you have your way today!”
She said, glaring at him.
Tang Ze wasn’t so timid. “Actually, I’ve liked you since the first time I saw you.”
He thought to himself that he should have tried acting instead of delivering food. He might have become a star.
Xi Meng snorted. “I’ve heard that line many times before. It might work on your little girlfriend.”
“She doesn’t understand me like you do, sister.”
Xi Meng’s heart fluttered. This Tang Ze was quite smooth.
“Let’s get some fresh air.”
Xi Meng stood up and walked outside. Tang Ze followed with a smile.
In the stairwell, Tang Ze leaned against the railing and smiled. “Sister Xi, aren’t you going home yet?”
“The air is better out here.”
She glared at him. If it wasn’t for her plan, she wouldn’t have put up with this. It wasn’t her style at all.
Tang Ze dropped his cigarette butt and stamped it out. “Alright then, I’ll go back. You should go back too, Sister Xi. Don’t catch a cold.”
Xi Meng’s face darkened. She watched him go downstairs. That bastard. After this is over, I’ll find a way to get rid of him.
