Chapter 1133: 1132 Meng Xiao Came to Pay New Year’s greetings
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Every year, many people would come to the Tao family to pay New Year’s greetings. Some of them were relatives of the Tao family, while others were business partners of the Tao family.

On the second day of the new year, Meng Xiao arrived at the Tao family’s manor early in the morning with a gift. She did not press the doorbell because the Tao family was still sleeping at this time. She could not disturb others from their rest.

At eight o’clock, the servants of the Tao family came to open the door on time. There were already a lot of people gathered at the door. They all came with gifts. In order to maintain the silence in the park, everyone did not speak and lined up, waiting to see Old Master Tao.

Although Old Master Tao no longer cared about the Tao family’s business, his influence was still there; so most people would still visit Old Master Tao first.

Meng Xiao prepared two gifts. One was for the two elders of the Tao family, and the other was for Tan Rou. Tan Rou had given her a chance to survive in the entertainment industry, so she had to pay Tan Rou a visit.

There were many guests who came to visit. The Tao family’s servants could not take care of every guest, so some guests got lost in the Tao family’s manor. Meng Xiao was one of them.

Meng Xiao had been walking around the manor for half an hour with the gift box. The manor was very big and there were no road signs. She could not find Tan Rou at all. Moreover, there were so many people who came to visit today that she could not even tell which one was the servant of the Tao family.

Meng Xiao, who was looking around, bumped into someone at the corner. “Ah!”

The other party also let out a cry. “Are you alright?”

Meng Xiao felt that this voice was quite familiar. She looked up and saw that it was her current boss, Tao Zheng. “Uh, hello, President Tao.”

Tao Zheng frowned and looked at her. “You look a little familiar.”

Meng Xiao really wanted to roll her eyes at him, but she was no longer the second daughter of the Meng family and could not be willful anymore. “President Tao, I’m Meng Xiao. I signed with Xinghe Entertainment this year.”

“Oh!” Tao Zheng’s face was full of expressions. “I remember now. You’re the one signed by Rourou. You used to be part of the Meng family, but you left before the Meng family went bankrupt. So you’re in Xinghe Entertainment now!”

“Haha.” Meng Xiao sneered. “That’s right. You have a good memory.”

Meng Xiao finally understood why her colleagues said that Xinghe Entertainment would be ruined by Tao Zheng sooner or later. Not only did Tao Zheng not care about the company’s operations, but he also did not remember the artists he had worked with. With such a bad memory, he would definitely be deceived by others in the future.

Tao Zheng only knew how to carry his broken camera around every day. Although the photos he took were very beautiful and the TV series he shot were very photogenic, he was not a professional photographer. He was the boss of a company. The boss should do the boss’s things. Why would the boss follow him around every day?

“No, I should have seen you somewhere before.” Tao Zheng thought about it carefully and said, “Oh, a few years ago, you and your sister went to my dad’s birthday. At that time, you even quarreled with my sister on my dad’s birthday.”

Meng Xiao took back his words. Tao Zheng had a good memory, but he shouldn’t have remembered the things he remembered. “Yes, I wasn’t sensible at that time and offended Miss Tao. I hope you and Miss Tao can forgive me.”

Tao Zheng said, “Since my sister is willing to let you join us, it means that she has forgiven you. It’s fine. You don’t have to worry about it. Work hard at our Xinghe Entertainment in the future.”

“Of course, President Tao,” Meng Xiao said politely. She planned to leave after saying a few more words. “President Tao, your manor is quite big.”

“Our Tao family’s manor is the largest in the entire Capital,” Tao Zheng said proudly.

Meng Xiao smiled. “President Tao, it’s getting late. I would have to head back first. Let’s meet again in the future.” She would find an opportunity to escape from here and meet Tan Rou. She couldn’t bring the New Year’s gift back since she hadn’t given it out yet.

“Wait a minute!” Tao Zheng called out to her and then stared at Meng Xiao’s face.

Meng Xiao felt a little guilty. She had only prepared two gifts today. One was for Old Mrs. Tao and Old Mr. Tao, and the other was for Tan Rou. If Tao Zheng asked her for a New Year gift, she would not be able to hand it over.
