Chapter 684 Attracting Attention

Ouyang Qi tagged along with Tang Jing to get groceries from the nearby supermarket in the afternoon. That was the first time in his life that he got to experience the process of shopping for groceries.

He had always been pampered in the past, so he had no idea what it was like having to shop and cook for himself. Ouyang Qi realized he enjoyed the process and found it as interesting as frequenting nightclubs.

He had intended to help out once they were done grocery shopping but ended up causing more trouble instead, for he had no idea how to pick or wash vegetables and couldn’t get anything right.

As such, he had no choice but to give up and wait for the meal to be served. Tang Jing’s years of working far from home had equipped her with the skills of making tasty homemade dishes.

Ouyang Qi rarely had the chance to taste such plain homemade delicacies due to his lavish lifestyle. He waxed lyrical about the tastiness of the dishes and claimed that he’d never eaten anything as delicious as these before.

“I hope you won’t forget today’s meal when you’re at the helm of Sunshine Corporation and become rich again in the future,” Tang Jing jested as she watched Ouyang Qi savor his food.

“I would never forget this if that day were to come,” he replied frankly. “All right. I’ll hold you to it.” Tang Jing was secretly delighted.

“One more thing. Would it be possible for you to lend me some money?” Ouyang Qi inquired. “How much do you want? You know that I’m not rich.”

“Do you have a hundred thousand?” “I do. I’ll transfer the amount to you.” “Okay. Please pass me a piece of paper so I can write an IOU. I promise to return you ten times the amount in the future, making it one million.”

“An IOU won’t be necessary. I trust you.”

Ouyang Qi gave Tang Jing a look of gratitude. “Thank you. I swear to pay you back.”

“As I said, I trust you. However, I’m curious as to why you need it. It’s a rather insignificant amount, and I can’t fathom what it can be used for.” Tang Jing was perplexed.
