24 Chapter 24: Controlled Lifestyle (1/2)

Xiulan and Hongqi just finished looking at the interior of the penthouse in district Y.

The penthouse in district Y was too big for the two of them so Hongqi decided to order more luxurious unnecessary furniture and antique China vases in different sizes and decorations to cover up the extra space.

Hongqi also decided to change the overall look of the living room and dining area, so he also hired an expert interior designer to change and finish the job within the day.

Xiulan was amazed again by Hongqi's manpower magnet. Her company has a huge problem in hiring the right people in different departments yet this annoying bored man can get the best person out there in just a snap.

She also has the money to hire but this man has a different level of getting the right people!

”A human management magician!” Xiulan secreltly commented.

After that excruciating visit and ear-hurting money talk expenses for Hongqi's penthouse in district Y, Hongqi decided to send Xiulan back to her office. Though they have a driver, the SUV they are currently using is currenly earning a lot of road attention. They are currently using Hongqi's black Rolls-Royce Cullinan.

The shiny, black and huge car was just so blinding for the onlookers. People outside the car already had a hint that the people inside the car were big shots.

They were all trying to peep who's inside.

Xiulan sighed contemptuously before stealing a look at the person beside her. Hongqi who was busy typing something on his laptop and has that handsome frown on his face but time to time he will cheekily snicker like he received some good news.

Hongqi was busy reading Secretary Yang Bo's early report regarding their intimate innocent PDA last night and obviously it was a success plan.

The public portrayed Hongqi as the clingy husband and the type of husband that women are willing to obey whatever his requests are at night. It cringed Hongqi but still it was a good response.

While for Mrs. Xing,Xiulan was really annoyed all throughout their visit but in the eyes of the public she gave a shy and aloof impression. The usual cold beauty comments but fans and netizens didn't mind since she has all the right to be.

Just like what Hongqi said, their PDA last night has sweep the trending topicsand it has surpassed the issue regarding Actor A and his involvement.

Hongqi was delighted by his successful plan. It only took Xiulan to get him from that bar and he managed to turn the tables again.

He warmly looks at the annoyed Xiulan who has now mindlessly looking at the passing cars. Out of nowhere, he endearingly brushed his hands on her cheeks.

Xiulan was caught off guard by Hongqi's sudden sweet movements.

”Oh my, what is it?” Xiulan panicked and held her face. She thought that she has a stain on her face that's why Hongqi reached for her face.

Hongqi grabbed her hand and brushes his thumb on top of her hand. Xiulan looks at Hongqi's face and he has that weird contentment in his expression.

”What a weirdo.” She mumbled secretly.

”Nothing. You look really pretty today.” He commented and kept brushing his thumb on her soft hands. ”I should reward her.” He silently thought.

”Uhm thank you…” Xiulan find it creepy that he would suddenly touch her face and hand like that. She made a quick glance at the driver and she saw that the driver was looking at them.

”It might be because there are other people inside the car.” Xiulan mumbled to herself.

”Tell me what you want. A mansion? A new business venture? Sports car? A jet? Anything?.” Hongqi began to spout arrogant offers while he endearingly looks at Xiulan. It really creeps her so much.

”Uhmm… anything?” She questioned. What if she says that she wants a divorce? But that would be too impossible.

”Yes.” Hongqi happily said and even put his head on her shoulders. His laptop is currently attached to the car's laptop mount so it's fine if he moves around.

The driver in front coughed loudly by the sudden sweet gesture of the famed Xing Hongqi. The driver didn't expect such gestures. He never saw him this sweet with any woman before. For his seventeen years as Xing Hongqi's personal driver, the young master's behavior today is very odd!

Hongqi felt the driver's shocked eyes and menacingly glared at the driver. The poor driver immediately put his full attention on the road, scared that he will lose his job just because he's snooping on their private moment.

”Err… what about putting another exit door in my room?” Xiulan suggested. This is the only thing she can think of right now. Although her head is full of divorce but that's an impossible request. She must first make sure that there's a separate exit in that damn prison room.

”A separate door? Are you sure? You would rather pick that than luxuries?” Hongqi said and stared at Xiulan's eyes. He was kind of surprised by her random suggestion. He already laid the cards that women wanted in life but she prefers a damn door?

”Yes! What's wrong with that? I would like to avoid opening the door during your naked state, my dear husband.” She innocently implied and gave a warm smile to Hongqi to somewhat convince him.

Hongqi suddenly thought of something naughty. He sat straightly and came closer to Xiulan.

Xiulan was so confused why he suddenly sat upright and also he's hogging all the space between them.

”I don't mind you walking in my naked state.” Hongqi seductively whispered in Xiulan's right ear and she felt that hot breathe in the inner parts of her ears. This gave Xiulan a major goosebumps.

Due to her instincts to protect herself from unfamiliar feeling, she quickly hit his arms and angrily glared at Hongqi. ”Hey! Don't do that!”

Hongqi sexily bit his lips to avoid laughing so hard. That surprise look on Xiulan's face was so adorable for him.

”Jeez, stop teasing me already.” Xiulan complained. She's pissed ever since breakfast and this flirty man is not helping her current disoriented mood at all. She wanted to shout at him but damn she can't. Sometime soon, she will really nag at him. She just needs a perfect timing.

”Endure.” There goes Xiulan's mantra again.

”Okay okay.” Hongqi playfully uttered and sat quietly at his side. But time to time he glances at Xiulan's expression. His cute wife still has that beautiful frown on her face and he wonders what she's thinking.

”Is she planning how to kill me?” Hongqi playfully asked himself and grinned like it's the cutest idea ever.
