482: Chapter 482: Romantic and Cozy!
Husband and Wife in Harmony!
Tears glistened.
Her beautiful eyes were misty.
At this mont, Tang Xiao’s emotions were indescribable.
Ti seed to stop.
The world beca silent.
Her field of vision narrowed infinitely, seeing only the lovable yet hateful scoundrel before her.
At first glance.
In his sharp suit, he really looked dashing.
But those deeply affectionate eyes and that sincerely radiant smile…
No matter how she looked at it, she saw the scoundrel’s mischievous smirk, brimming with self-satisfaction.
Bright roses, a dazzling diamond ring.
She had thought Wu Jie didn’t understand romance, but now it seed she had been completely mistaken.
This was more than just romantic, it was wasteful!
A 20-carat main diamond ring, surrounded by 28 precious gemstones of various colors…
Wasn’t this the ‘Pure Love’ diamond ring they had looked at when they went to buy their wedding rings?
The price tag of 58.88 million was sheer extravagance.
Too expensive!
Millions spent on just a few stones!
If this had been in the past, Tang Xiao would have cursed outright.
But now…
It seed rather beautiful to her!
Damn it!
What’s happened to ?
Could it be that love had truly clouded my judgnt and lowered my IQ?
Tears flowed down uncontrollably.
Tang Xiao bit her lip, her gaze pitifully enchanting.
Wu Jie rose gracefully, walked around the desk, and ca to stand before Tang Xiao.
Without a word, he thrust the bouquet of roses into her arms, then slipped the ring onto her finger.
Throughout the process, Tang Xiao felt as if she were in a dream.
She didn’t resist!
Didn’t curse at him!
Head bowed slightly, she gazed with captivating eyes.
The bright roses and the sparkling diamond ring created an indescribable visual impact.
Wu Jie took Tang Xiao’s hand.
It was translucent and white as jade, slender and delicate.
“Does it look good?” asked Wu Jie softly.
Choking back sobs, Tang Xiao looked down and pouted, “You tricked !
Didn’t you say you were sleeping and hadn’t gotten out of bed?
Where did these co from?”
Wu Jie laughed, “I didn’t trick you!
After the phone call, I had the store manager personally deliver the diamond ring.
Of course, buying such an expensive diamond ring and asking her to throw in a bouquet of roses isn’t too much, right?”
“As for …
obviously, I was at ho, combed my hair to look like a grown-up, put on a handso suit, and then ca to propose!”
Tang Xiao bit her lip hard and suddenly looked up.
“How did you get here?”
“Walked and took the elevator!”
“So you walked all the way here holding the roses and the ring box.
Didn’t the employees of the group see you?”
“Not only did they see, but many also wished well!
Besides, haven’t we been together for a long ti?
Are you still shy?”
“Nonsense!
That was before.
Before it was fake, but now…”
“What about now?”
Wu Jie grinned and took a half step forward.
One arm around her slender waist, the other around her neck.
Forget the rules, he’d stamp his mark first.
As for getting hit…
could she beat him?
Unexpectedly…
Tang Xiao did not avoid him.
After a long while, Wu Jie pulled Tang Xiao to sit down.
“Let’s eat first, how can we have the energy to continue if we’re not full?”
Wu Jie smiled proudly, lifting the lids off the lunch boxes one by one.
Just as he picked up his chopsticks to eat, Tang Xiao stopped him.
“Don’t eat!!”
“What’s wrong?
Is it poisoned?”
Wu Jie was sowhat puzzled.
He hadn’t eaten breakfast due to oversleeping, and he was truly starving now!
“There’s no poison!
It’s…
it’s because today’s dishes are super spicy!”
Tang Xiao imdiately moved closer, intending to cover the lunch boxes.
“Wait a minute!”
Wu Jie held Tang Xiao back with his hand and laughed, “How do you know I like super spicy food?
If it weren’t for accommodating you, I would have preferred to add more chili peppers to every al!”
Tang Xiao’s mouth twitched slightly, a look of surprise on her face.
“No…
No way!
You’re not lying to !”
“Damn!
Have you forgotten where I co from?
Where I co from, not only do people like spicy food, but they also enjoy the numbing sensation, otherwise, where would all those hot pot restaurants co from?”
As he spoke, Wu Jie picked up a box of spicy Mao blood curd and began to eat, with a thick layer of chili powder floating atop it.
It would give even those with the lightest appetites goosebumps just to look at it.
Tang Xiao’s eyes were firmly glued to Wu Jie.
She felt sure that any second now, he would spit out the spicy food, his face red and teary from panting…
However, Wu Jie did not.
Instead, he seed to enjoy it imnsely.
“No way, can you really eat that?” Tang Xiao asked in astonishnt.
“The taste is so-so, but I’m hungry, so I’ll just make do,” Wu Jie chewed a few tis and laughed, “Mao Blood Curd emphasizes being scalded and eaten on the spot, and it has to be bright red, numbingly spicy, refreshingly fragrant, and rich in flavor.”
“But what the canteen chef made, other than being spicy, seems to lack the fresh, tender, cool, numbing sensations!
It’s really a failure!”
Tang Xiao laughed awkwardly.
The chefs in the corporate headquarters canteen were all star chefs.
If not for Tang Xiao’s special order, how could they possibly make a ‘failed’ Mao Blood Curd?
“Boiled Fish, too few Sichuan peppercorns and too many chilies, a failure!”
“Mapo Tofu, how can it be just spicy with no numbing sensation?
Too much of a failure!”
“This stir-fried at with chili, the fresh taste of the chili is gone, did they intentionally pour lots of chili oil?
Truly a failure among failures!”
…
Listening to Wu Jie’s critique, Tang Xiao dared not respond.
“Hey, why aren’t you eating?
I rember you can handle your spice!”
Wu Jie suddenly asked.
Tang Xiao shook her head repeatedly, “I…
I just rembered, my period hasn’t ended yet!
I’ll have soone send a separate portion!”
“You should avoid spicy and raw food during your nstrual cycle, you ate too much spicy and greasy food last night, I’ll take your pulse later!”
“No need!
It doesn’t hurt!”
As she spoke, Tang Xiao got up to use the desk phone to call the canteen for food delivery.
Seeing the roses that had fallen to the floor, Tang Xiao bent down to pick them up, unwrapped them, and placed each rose into the vase.
The ring on her finger reflected light so brilliantly it made it hard for her to open her eyes.
“No way!
Your ring is too shiny, I can’t even work while wearing it, can it still be returned?”
Tang Xiao suddenly asked.
Wu Jie spoke irritably, “Return what?
It’s already bought!
This is the first ti in my life I’ve made such a lavish purchase!”
“Besides, you were allowed to buy a nearly hundred-thousand Gold Coin dress, can’t I impulsively buy a ring?”
Tang Xiao countered, “Is the price the sa?
Yours is almost ten million Gold Coins!”
“What’s there to fear?
If you have the courage to spend, you have the ability to earn!
Aren’t those three ruffians eagerly lining up to hand over the money?”
With one sentence, Wu Jie left Tang Xiao at a loss for words.
There was silence for two seconds.
Tang Xiao walked over, frowned, and asked, “Speaking of those three ruffians, do you think the terms I offered were too low?”
“Not just low, they were way too low!”
Wu Jie laughed and shook his head,
“I’ve never seen a woman squander like you, just letting them off with sixty billion Gold Coins, is your appetite really that small?”
“You can’t compare earning one billion Euros in Europe to earning one billion dostically, can you?”
“Not to ntion, they are super international giants with net assets beyond estimation, two hundred billion Gold Coins each, are you kidding ?”
Tang Xiao sat down, pouting,
“I didn’t think so much at the ti, two hundred billion Gold Coins each was just a number I blurted out!”
“They originally were only willing to give forty billion Gold Coins each!
Way lower than what I asked for!”
Wu Jie waved his hand, “Alright!
Talking about this now is aningless.
When’s the next negotiation?”
Tang Xiao shook her head.
“There probably won’t be any more negotiations!
Before they left, they said they would seriously consider my terms and give a response as soon as possible!”
“I…
damn!!”
Wu Jie was almost about to curse.
But seeing the remorseful look on Tang Xiao’s face, he held back.
How could he bear to scold his own woman?
Taking a deep breath, Wu Jie sighed,
“From now on, leave any negotiations to ; you just focus on managing the company.”
At that mont, there was a knock on the door, and the food had arrived.
Unexpectedly…
The person delivering the food was Tang Long.
“Dad, what brings you here?”
“I was just having a al in the canteen, so I brought it up on my way!”
Tang Long walked over cheerfully, and Wu Jie quickly got up to offer his seat.
“Don’t move, keep eating!
I…”
Tang Long was about to sit down when a dazzling light hit his eyes.
“Ouch!
Xiao, your ring is way too shiny!”
Tang Long sat on the sofa, rubbing his eyes and complaining,
“It’s enough that you flaunt your love and torture , a single dog.
But now, do you have to blind , a Gold Coin-spending dog, with your ring?”
Tang Xiao quickly covered her hand, her face drooping,
“Dad, what are you talking about?
If you’re a single dog, wouldn’t that make one too?”
Tang Long laughed heartily.
“I’m just joking around, go eat your al!”
Adjusting his position, Tang Long crossed his legs and looked at Wu Jie with a grin,
“Jie, last night I told your parents, although our wedding isn’t going to be big, it must be dignified and lively!”
“So, I’m thinking of making the bride pickup lively and festive.
They kept saying they’ll listen to , but what do you think?”
Wu Jie was taken aback.
What was his father-in-law implying?
Wanting a grand ceremony to marry off his daughter?
