The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

Hai Xiaotang, however, doesn’t catch on to his intentions, and is still in shock. “Why would you give this to me, and something so extravagant at that?”

“Don’t like it?”

“No, it’s just too expensive, there’s no need…”

Dongfang Yu is visibly upset by this, and replies casually, “Didn’t you think I was going bankrupt? The fact that I can afford to buy you a car should tell you that I still have plenty of money.”

Hai Xiaotang is taken aback, “You did this just to show me you’re not going bankrupt?”

“Hai Xiaotang, can you be any more dense?!” As if everything he says should be taken literally. To prove his financial status, would he really have to go this far?

With that, Hai Xiaotang finally understood his point.

She playfully asks, “So you’re just giving me a simple gift?”

Dongfang Yu huffs, “What else do you think this is for? You’ve always wanted a sports car, to live in a mansion, to buy designer items, and to be a rich man’s wife, haven’t you? From now on, I’ll fulfill all your wishes!”

Hai Xiaotang teases, “You’re being nice to me, huh.”

Dongfang Yu pinches her cheek, absolutely smitten, “If I’m not nice to you, who should I be nice to?”

“I thought you were mad at me.”

“You’re the one who was intentionally making me angry!”

“Clearly, you’re just too stubborn.”

“I’m in it for the long haul. Once I marry someone, I’ll never regret it!”

“Pff…” Hai Xiaotang couldn’t help but laugh, heart overwhelmed by sweetness.

She tightly holds his hand, smiling and says, “I will also, from this day forward, remain committed to you.”

A smile spreads across Dongfang Yu’s eyes, and his voice softens, “Remember what you said today. Dare to go back on your words, and I’ll teach you a lesson you won’t forget!”

Hai Xiaotang thinks for a moment and solemnly replies, “If you do not abandon me, I will not forsake you!”

Dongfang Yu’s eyes darken—

He then leans in and passionately, excitedly kisses her on the lips!

As their lips interlock, Hai Xiaotang hears Dongfang Yu murmur in endless affection, “Hai Xiaotang, in this life, I Dongfang Yu, will never abandon you…”

…

Qiao Ning had been away for a while assisting her mentor on an out-of-town project.

Only when Hai Xiaotang had been hospitalized for a week did she rush back to see her.

Even before entering the hospital room, Qiao Ning could hear Hai Xiaotang’s complaints, “Dongfang Yu, enough is enough! If you keep this up, I’m going to ignore you!”

Dongfang Yu fumes back, “Hai Xiaotang, you’re truly ungrateful! Who knew a woman could be so unappreciative!”

“I’m ungrateful? It’s clear that you’ve gone too far…”

Startled by their quarrelling, Qiao Ning freezes at the door, hesitant to enter.

She hadn’t expected to walk into an argument.

As Qiao Ning debates whether or not she should step in and intervene, Hai Xiaotang spots her.

“Qiao Ning, you’re finally here!” Hai Xiaotang’s previously furious expression instantly blossoms into a smile.

Qiao Ning walks in, acting as if nothing is wrong, “Xiaotang, I’m sorry I’m late. How are you now, has your condition improved?”

“Much better, don’t worry. I’m fine now.” And with that, Hai Xiaotang glances over at Dongfang Yu and huffs, “My friend’s here, shouldn’t you leave?”

Dongfang Yu’s face darkens even more, “You want me to leave?”

“Yes, I need to talk privately with Qiao Ning. Do you want to listen in on that too?”

“As if I care!” With a cold laugh, Dongfang Yu storms out of the room.
