It's hard to quit, but it's the perfect marriage!

Zhu Xi readily admitted: "It seems so."

Zhou Yinghuai was caught off guard by her directness.

In the few seconds he hesitated, Zhu Xi's second message had already bombarded him.

Zhu Xi: [Zhou Yinghuai, I think I really miss you.]

Looking at the message, Zhou Yinghuai felt for the first time that all the worldly vanities and the bustling crowds of fame and fortune were nothing compared to the real feeling of returning home late at night.

Miss you.

I miss you so much.

Simple words, yet powerful emotions.

So, as soon as he stepped out of the airport, he called Zhu Xi.

video call.

Zhu Xi was still wearing the clothes from last night, with a cushion tucked into her arms.

Leaning back on the sofa, the beautiful woman was languid and captivating.

Zhou Yinghuai was like a monarch who refused to attend the morning court session, loving beauty more than his country.

He laughed, displaying the same blatant lying skills he possessed as a monarch, "You're at Yilong Residence?"

Zhu Xi nodded, her long, loose hair swaying gracefully in the air with her slight movement, exuding elegance and freedom.

Just in case he hadn't seen it, I added, "Mm."

With her slightly swollen eyelids, she looked at the screen and saw that Zhou Yinghuai was in the car.

I looked up at the old-fashioned alarm clock hanging on the wall; it was the kind of old, clunky clock where birds would pop out of the folds right on the hour.

Horthy found it at a flea market and insisted on giving it to her.

It was almost half past eleven o'clock.

Zhu Xi tilted her head and finally asked the first question about Zhou Yinghuai's business trip.

Where did you go on your business trip?

Zhou Yinghuai smiled and pointed the camera at the road conditions where cars were driving on the left.

"You went to Hong Kong?" Zhu Xi was surprised and straightened up a bit. "Yes."

Zhou Yinghuai sensed the unspoken meaning in her words, "Is there anything you want me to take back?"

Zhu Xi smiled and said, "No."

"Really nothing?" Thanks to Zhou Lingyi, Zhou Yinghuai understood a girl's hesitation all too well. "You can buy anything!"

Zhu Xi paused for a moment, then said, "Actually, it's nothing important."

Logistics are so convenient nowadays; you can buy whatever you want.

Her hesitation just now was nothing more than her old consumption mentality; she always felt that going to Hong Kong City without buying anything would be a loss.

But things are different now; she has money.

"Zhou Yinghuai, I'm rolling in money now." She smiled smugly and sat up straight.

The soft, cuddly cushion rested on her crossed legs. She propped her chin on her right elbow, stuck out her tongue, and said shyly, "Actually, I wanted to buy one, but I just couldn't remember what to buy."

Zhou Yinghuai was very patient. "No rush, take your time to think about it."

Zhu Xi raised an eyebrow at him, her eyes gleaming mischievously. "Actually, I just bought a lot of things online last week, using several 52000s that you generously gave me."

"For example?"

"Lipstick, powder, blush, sunscreen," Zhu Xi listed off, seemingly familiar with everything, though she wasn't sure if Zhou Yinghuai could understand. "Tote bag, phone case, bag, clothes, shoes."

When she finished counting, she added one more thing, "Oh, right, I also bought it for you."

Zhou Yinghuai's eyes lit up instantly. "What did you buy?"

Zhu Xi saw the flashing transfer notification. This man always managed to send such delightful surprises during the middle of a chat.

It's still the amount of 52000.

Not too big, not too small.

Zhu Xi accepted it without any burden.

"Socks!" She laughed so loudly that she was bent over and couldn't straighten up, but even so, she still managed to collect the transfers she was supposed to receive.

What a coincidence.

She was making instant noodles at the time, and the steam from the freshly boiled water made her eyes uncomfortable.

During the few minutes of waiting, Zhu Xi used one eye to search the online world.

I stumbled into a live stream and saw two really nice tracksuits.

Couple style.

Unfortunately, Zhu Xi was not very familiar with men's clothing sizes.

She didn't want to ask Zhou Yinghuai himself, nor did she want to ask Zhu He.

After thinking it over, Zhu Xi went to ask customer service.

"Male, 188cm tall, 75kg, what size do you wear?"

The customer service representative's response was neither professional nor perfunctory.

The normal size is fine, but we recommend ordering a larger size for this card.

then.

She had only been asking customer service for size advice when she switched back to the app and found that all the men's sizes were sold out.

Zhu Xi had no choice but to reluctantly buy herself a set.

As I was about to leave, the customer messaged me again, regretfully saying that the men's styles were sold out. He even politely suggested I buy socks instead.

They euphemistically say that wearing socks bought by their girlfriends will pave a longer and more stable path to success.

Zhu Xi took a picture on the spot.

However, there were quite a few; I bought seven pairs.

Boss Zhou can wear a different pair of shoes every day.

Zhou Yinghuai listened attentively and didn't feel cheated. Instead, he felt a sense of self-satisfaction and accomplishment, like an iron tree finally blooming.

Zhu Xi, considering the 52000, sincerely asked, "Zhou Yinghuai, how much do your underwear usually cost?"

Zhou Yinghuai instantly transformed into a blissfully happy husband again, saying, "It's normal."

Zhu Xi nodded, "Okay, I'll buy it for you when I have the chance."

"Hmm." Zhou Yinghuai smiled. "Why...?"

"Hosh said that the old saying 'the way to a man's heart is through his stomach' is outdated. In the new era, the saying 'the way to a man's body is through his own food' is popular."

Zhou Yinghuai: "..."
