127 Chapter 127 : Unexpected Discovery (1/2)

Ever since he planned their second wedding, he rarely asks Secretary Yang Bo to work on stuff just like this. He will do it by himself which was great progress for a womanizer like him. Due to his secretive actions, it makes Yang Bo, his close friends, and relatives utterly surprised.

Once Xiulan is finished with her call, she catches her husband looking at her quite differently. The type of difference that makes the hair on her back gets goosebumps.

To get his attention away from her, she decided to tease him. She raises her eyebrows at him and acted like she's angry at him. ”Were you listening to my call just now? Are you a spy?”

Hongqi charmingly smiled at his wife's cute accusations. ”Yes, I'm trying to find out which person who made my wife be so stressed in the morning.”

She snorted at his remarks, ”Hmph. You and your suave remarks. So what will you do if you find the culprit?”

”Well, I'll make sure to make them suffer tenfold.” The handsome husband grinned and sips in the remaining coffee.

”Hey... Why do you keep threatening people? Is that a long-time hobby of yours?” She knew that he's flirting but she can't help but ask this. His mouth would always spew brutal arrogant stuff that sometimes she questions herself if she married a sadist.

There was brief amazement on Hongqi's expression when he heard his wife's question. ”Well... I'm like this ever since. I grew up in a household where an only heir should always act majestically and domineering. The people around me are like this as well. Just like what I said a long time ago, I'm naturally arrogant.”

Xiulan's expression was unreadable and she seems to be contemplating. She indeed remembers that he said something like that before.

Hongqi only laughed at her and suddenly a question pops up in his mind. ”Are you happy with your wedding ring?”

She was confused for a moment and quickly looks at her wedding ring. ”It's a little heavy due to the big diamond and sometimes I'm very anxious that it's expensive which causes me to not want to wear it. But overall since you picked this by yourself, I like it.”

Hongqi's heart fluttered again. ”You really know what to say to make me happy.”

”Huh? What?” Xiulan thought she became deaf for a moment. Did he really say such cheesy lines?

Hongqi smiled mysteriously. ”*Sighs*, my wife is so pretty but her ears are not in good health. How could this be? I can't say it again.” He acted like a little brat trying to be sassy.

Though her answer really made him happy, he will still buy a new pair for them.

Xiulan frowned at his weird muttering. ”I definitely heard that but I'm just trying to act clueless here.” she secretly rebuts.

She's really not sure how to respond to his flirting that's why she chose to be oblivious or clueless most of the time.

”Tomorrow, let's go to Universal Studios and eat lots of food.” Xiulan decided to change the topic.

”You have been eating a lot these days. Your gym instructor will be mad at you. Good thing I make sure that we always have our sexy times.” Hongqi mutters and made a flirty wink at his wife.

Xiulan rolled her eyes at her husband's remarks. ”I can't ignore all the food you bought. They are so good and wasting food is a great sin.”

”So it's my fault now?” Hongqi sassily remarked.

”Of course not! Don't stop buying all the delicious food, okay? I'll just let my gym instructor torture me than torturing myself for not eating delicious food. I'm not sarcastic here. I'm being honest.” Xiulan stands her ground. She refuses to put the blame on the food. She only mentioned it yet the husband made a whole different context in her remarks.

Hongqi curled his lips and laughed heartily at his wife's guilty remarks. He stands up to kiss her forehead and caresses her hair. He sweetly informs her, ”Just rest today. I'm going to meet some business clients in an hour.”

Xiulan only nodded. She will definitely take a long rest. The long walk yesterday and the hot snu-snu they had last night made her legs like melting chocolate. She can't even walk properly.

Hongqi went to meet more business clients who wanted to ask investments from him. He read some of their proposals last night when he had a call with his team.

Though these new clients are a start-up company, their services and goods seem promising if they only have a proper investor.

Hongqi has been investing his money in small companies ever since. When these small companies flourish like a blooming flower in spring, the money he invested comes back to him tenfold.  He can't even count anymore how many companies he already invested, both small and big. That's why every second, he earns millions without any effort.

Inside a black and white meeting room with a huge overlooking window, twenty people both in their late 20s and 60s try to curry favor with the money-making machine, XIngHongqi.
