They once believed, love would never dawn on them in this lifetime.
But lo and behold, the day finally arrivedâ¦
Hai Xiaotang and Dongfang Yu teased each other for a while before they headed out for dinner.
Hai Xiaotang was particularly warm towards him today, not only giving him a massage but unstoppably serving him food.
âI have a surprise gift for you after dinner.â She said mysteriously.
Dongfang Yu was taken aback with the massage, food, and the mention of a gift, what on earth was Hai Xiaotang up to?
Dongfang Yu stared at her, subtly raising an eyebrow, âWife, youâre being overly attentive today, spill it. Did you do something bad?â
Hai Xiaotang shook her head, âNo way.â
âReally, nothing at all?â
âNothing!â replied Hai Xiaotang gravely, âIsnât it nice that Iâm treating you well?â
âOf course it is. What is the gift? Can I have it now?â Dongfang Yu was growing impatient.
Hai Xiaotang chuckled, âYouâll get it after dinnerâ¦â
Dongfang Yu immediately put down his chopsticks and said, âIâve finished eating.â
Hai Xiaotang: ââ¦â
Under Dongfang Yuâs anticipatory gaze, Hai Xiaotang reluctantly brought out the gift she had prepared for him.
The gift was beautifully wrapped, a small package, it was either a watch or a tie clip.
No matter what it was, Dongfang Yu loved it nonetheless. He couldnât wait to open it the moment it was in his hands.
This was the first time he was this excited about a giftâ¦
And indeed, the gift was a watch, a Rolex. Though not extravagantly priced, its design was excellent and it suited him perfectly.
Dongfang Yu couldnât help but grin. He immediately removed his million-dollar watch, replacing it with the new one that only cost a fraction of it.
And he wore a face of contentment, he truly loved it.
Hai Xiaotang giggled and asked, âDo you like it? I thought it suited you the moment I saw it.â
Dongfang Yu looked into her eyes passionately, âI love it. I havenât given you many gifts, tell me what you want, and Iâll get it for you.â
Hai Xiaotang shook her head, âI lack nothing and want nothing.â
âUnacceptable, you must pick a few gifts!â Dongfang Yu commanded in his domineering tone, âWhat about a sports car? We have a few nice villas under the companyâs name that weâre selling, one of it has a lovely layout and location. Iâll have it reserved for you.â
âNo need, Iâve given you a watch and youâre giving me a sports car and a villa in return, I would profit too much.â
Dongfang Yu answered affectionately, âItâs worth it to spoil you. And I donât think these are enough.â
âI really donât need it.â Hai Xiaotang refused firmly.
Dongfang Yu laughed, âThatâs up to you, but Iâm still going to give them to you.â
Hai Xiaotangâs eyes sparkled, âIf you truly want to spoil me, then agree to something else for me.â
âWhat is it?â Dongfang Yu was puzzled.
Hai Xiaotang took a deep breath and steeled herself, âDonât get angry after I say this, but Iâve come to believe that we⦠â
âIâm already angry!â Dongfang Yu cut her off before she could finish her sentence.
Hai Xiaotang was astonished, âYou know what I was about to say?â
He obviously knew. The only thing she would bring up now was the thing he despised most, divorce.
Dongfang Yuâs anger flared, his gaze on her turned harsh and stern, âHai Xiaotang, I knew todayâs attentiveness had a motive! You thought about divorcing me, donât even think about it!â
Hai Xiaotang shrank back, âBut if we donâtâ¦..â
