Chapter 492 - 232: I Barely Recognized You With Clothes On!
Jiang Tao woke up, turned his head, and glanced out the window.
The sky outside was already dark.
He picked up the phone on the bedside table to check the time.
As soon as the phone screen lit up, he first saw the message of a money transfer from Bai Yulan.
That wonderful experience of waking up to find someone has transferred 100,000 yuan to you.
Even with Jiang Tao’s current considerable net worth, he felt extremely happy!
It was like the money just blew in with the wind, how could he not be happy!
He unlocked his phone with a fingerprint, opened WeChat, and clicked to accept the transfer without hesitation.
Whoosh~
100,000 yuan went straight into Jiang Tao’s pocket money account.
After accepting the transfer, Jiang Tao finally looked at the few messages Bai Yulan sent him.
"Want to learn massage? It’s not easy to learn."
"However, I was just looking for you."
"The Insomnia Terminator task is only one-third complete."
"And the special book on Tuina Massage in the office hasn’t been obtained."
"Before returning to Beijing, we need to complete these two things."
As Jiang Tao looked at the messages sent by Bai Yulan, he made his own plans in his heart.
[Sister Bai, are you off work? I’m free tonight, I can come over and give you a massage.]
After thinking for a while, Jiang Tao composed a message and sent it.
The Insomnia Terminator task needed to be completed two more times, so they had to take advantage of time and speed up the progress.
It had been four or five days since they returned to their hometown during the Qingming Festival, plenty of time.
There were many things he needed to handle in Beijing, and Jiang Xue had already missed quite a few classes.
She was already lagging behind her classmates and only thanks to Jiang Yi’s careful tutoring, she could barely keep up with the coursework now.
They missed a few days going back to their hometown for the Qingming Festival, and once back in Beijing, Jiang Yi would need to intensify her tutoring again.
Less than 10 seconds after Jiang Tao sent his message, he got a reply from Bai Yulan.
[Not yet, got delayed with something today, I’m still at the office, about to head home.]
[Why don’t you come to my place?]
[If you’re worried about Lili misunderstanding, you can bring her along.]
Seeing the second message from Bai Yulan, Jiang Tao almost got the wrong idea.
Luckily, she sent a third message.
Jiang Tao thought for a moment and replied:
[Okay, Lili and I will go to Sister Bai’s house, so you can have a good night’s sleep tonight.]
[Oh right, Sister Bai, last time I went to your office, I saw a book on Tuina Massage on your bookshelf.]
[Can you give me that book? I want to learn from the masters and improve my skills.]
After sending the message, Jiang Tao looked at his phone screen, waiting for Bai Yulan’s reply.
[You’re quite eager to learn! I’ll bring it to you when I return!]
[By the way, you haven’t had dinner yet, have you? If not, don’t eat anything, I’ll let you and Lili taste my cooking tonight.]
[Sister Bai can cook too?]
[Of course! You’ll know when you come over! Go ahead, order something!]
[No need to order, Sister Bai. Feel free to make whatever, I’m not picky.]
Jiang Tao and Bai Yulan exchanged more than a dozen messages before he got up from bed.
He opened the door and walked out of the bedroom; the house was quiet, no one was around.
"Huh, no one? Where did everyone go?"
Jiang Tao looked around every corner of the house but saw no one, only hearing the snoring from the direction of the master bedroom.
Xu Wencheng was also drinking with many county leaders for the first time, he drank quite a bit over lunch today.
Jiang Tao’s constitution officially broke through the human body limit of 100 points, reaching 106 points, after completing the Bringing Glory to the Team task.
With his constitution greatly enhanced, his metabolism was also boosted.
He was already fully sober, having metabolized most of the alcohol in his system.
Unable to find anyone, Jiang Tao pulled out his phone from his pocket and dialed Xu Li’s number.
Beep beep beep——
The moment he dialed out, the call was quickly connected, and Xu Li’s voice came from the other side.
"Honey~ you’re awake, mom, Sasha, and I took Xiao Xue to the West Garden Hot Spring for a soak."
"You and dad just have something simple for dinner; we’ll eat out later."
"Daddy! It’s so fun here! Do you want to come play with us?"
The playful voices of Xu Li and Jiang Xue came through the phone.
Jiang Tao chuckled, "I have something to take care of tonight, so I won’t join you. Have fun."
"Okay, then go on with your business, bye."
"Bye-bye."
After saying goodbye to Xu Li, he casually hung up the phone.
During lunch today, Jiang Tao noticed Bai Yulan gave Xu Li and her mother-in-law 20 tickets to the West Garden Hot Spring.
The West Garden Hot Spring tickets were priced at 499 yuan each, so 20 tickets would be around 10,000 yuan.
Sister Bai was as generous as always.
After finishing his call with Xu Li, Jiang Tao quickly washed his face, brushed his teeth, and ordered a car service on his phone.
Even though he felt fine, better safe than sorry.
Just in case he ran into a drunk-driving checkpoint and had residual alcohol in his system.
Otherwise, as the first champion of the health run, he’d gain fame again.
Ring, ring, ring——
Just as Jiang Tao was waiting for the elevator at the door, his phone rang.
He pulled out his phone and saw the caller ID was "Mountain Goat."
"Hello, Mountain Goat."
Jiang Tao answered the call and greeted Shan Yang on the other end.
"President Jiang! You’re going viral on Weibo!"
"You’re really quietly working on big things! Didn’t even give me a heads-up."
On the other end, Shan Yang’s voice was excited.
This Healthy Run event in Ping County wasn’t a major event, so it wasn’t very popular either.
