Chapter 19: Reviewing the Past to Learn New Things
"I received the gift, thank you."
After ordering the food, Xu Qingwu clicked on Cen Xihuai’s profile picture and sent him a message.
After waiting for a while, Cen Xihuai didn't reply. Xu Qingwu thought he might be busy, so she put away her phone and went to get the food with Yang Yu.
"Qingwu, I'm not trying to sow discord. I'm just giving you a friendly reminder. The flowers you received are actually quite cheap. Maybe Huang Yun also thought your bag was fake because of the flowers..."
Seeing Yang Yu's hesitation, Xu Qingwu joked with her, "You don't think I was tricked into marriage, do you?"
Yang Yu said frankly, "This flower and Hermès don't look like they were created by the same person."
"Don't worry, my husband should be quite rich."
"Then I feel relieved."
Although Yang Yu is carefree, he has a strong sense of boundaries and will not delve into other people's privacy too much. Therefore, he did not continue to ask about Xu Qingwu's marriage.
While eating, Cen Xihuai replied: "Do you like it?"
"I like it very much."
Xu Qingwu continued typing: "How do you know I have allergic rhinitis?"
“It’s in the information.”
All right.
For a marriage alliance or something like that, you do need to find out the other party's background.
Cen Xihuai stayed in the chat room with Xu Qingwu and didn't return. It was a long time before he received a message from Xu Qingwu again, but it was asking about Yao Wei.
"Was this also Assistant Yao's suggestion?"
"Yes."
"That's all good, but I think you need to give Assistant Yao a raise."
Cen Xihuai looked up from his phone and looked at Yao Wei: "You chose a good gift. My wife said she would give you a raise."
Yao Wei said: "Thank you, ma'am."
Yao Wei’s inner thoughts: I will raise the banner for my wife!
Xu Qingwu and Yang Yu went back after dinner, but Huang Yun was nowhere to be seen. In the trash can was the brand new "Hermès". Xiao Lu came over to tell her that the identification results were out, and Huang Yun's bag was a fake.
Yang Yu was finally relieved and was really happy for Xu Qingwu. In a blind date, one has to get both money and love. Although she didn't know how their relationship was going, at least this man was rich.
After receiving the appraisal results, Huang Yun went to Chen Xiao's company to ask him for an explanation. Unexpectedly, Chen Xiao was not embarrassed by being exposed, but was very confident.
"That bag cost millions less to match. You didn't really think I would give it to you, did you? I thought you knew it was a replica."
"Then why don't you explain clearly? Xu Qingwu's husband gave her the same one. You embarrassed me to death."
"Her husband is rich, what are you competing with her for?"
"You knew she was married? Is that why you're with me?"
"What else?"
"No wonder Xu Qingwu looks down on you."
"If she likes me, what does it have to do with you?"
"Chen Xiao, you bastard!"
Chen Xiao sneered, "Don't blame anyone. Didn't you rush to ask me to have sex with you that night at the bar?"
"separate!"
"Let's break it up, just give me back my bag!" A high-quality imitation would cost several thousand yuan, and his money didn't come from the wind.
"Give me back my belt!"
Huang Yun rushed over to grab Chen Xiao's belt, which she had spent a month's salary to buy for the genuine product.
The two men almost got into a fight.
Huang Yun didn't come back all afternoon. Xu Qingwu was busy dealing with the matters at hand and had no interest in caring about anything else.
The person who came to pick me up after get off work today was Yao Wei.
Xu Qingwu was puzzled: "Didn't your CEO Cen ask Assistant Ding to pick me up from get off work?"
"It should be a job transfer." Yao Wei didn't know the reason either. President Cen specifically designated him as the replacement yesterday.
"Did Assistant Ding's blind date succeed?"
"No." Yao Wei still wanted to laugh when he thought about it today, so he shared it with Xu Qingwu, "They went to eat Western food, and Ding Cheng thought there was something dirty on the girl's eyelashes, so he kindly removed it for her. It turned out to be her false eyelashes."
“…”
Xu Qingwu couldn't laugh because her double eyelid stickers had been torn off by Cen Xihuai.
It's true that like boss, like assistant...
Not long after Xu Qingwu arrived home, Cen Xihuai also came back. The meal ordered in advance at the hotel was delivered on time. This was the first time the two had eaten alone after getting their marriage certificate a week ago.
Cen Xihuai ate slowly and his movements had a kind of aristocratic elegance.
Xu Qingwu didn't know what to say, so he just lowered his head and ate.
The first meal was spent in silence.
After dinner, Xu Qingwu went to the kitchen to wash the strawberries. Each one was beautiful and plump, rolling in the glass plate.
Xu Qingwu took one and tasted it. It was very sweet and juicy.
She handed it to Cen Xihuai and asked him, "Do you want to eat it?"
Cen Xihuai shook his head to indicate he didn't want to eat: "I'm going on a business trip soon, call me if you have anything."
"Be careful on the road."
"OK."
Xu Qingwu added: "You don't need to bring me expensive business trip gifts this time."
Reciprocity is basic in a relationship, just like now Cen Xihuai gave her a gift for a business trip, and she is also thinking about what to give Cen Xihuai next time she goes on a business trip.
Cen Xihuai travels on business quite frequently, and she also needs to travel on business from time to time. If they have to give each other gifts every time they go on a business trip, it would be a real headache.
Cen Xihuai remained silent, feeling that Xu Qingwu really didn't like the gift he gave her.
"I still want to say thank you to you in person."
Cen Xihuai looked up at her and waited for her to continue.
Husband and wife should give positive feedback for each other's kindness. Xu Qingwu said sincerely: "I like both the bag and the flowers. This is the first time someone gave me flowers that I can keep."
She specifically emphasized the flowers.
Cen Xihuai's dark eyes lit up slightly: "You prefer flowers?"
Xu Qingwu nodded.
Lover in the Mist, sounds very romantic, doesn’t it?
Cen Xihuai suppressed the slight ripples in his heart and spoke in a calm and composed tone, "Assistant Yao arranged the bag, and I picked the flowers myself."
Xu Qingwu was a little surprised.
She thought that Cen Xihuai's gifts were sapphires, pink diamonds, Hermès, and other gifts that looked very expensive.
I didn't expect that he has such a romantic side. If this gets out, I'm afraid everyone will be shocked.
After thinking about it, Xu Qingwu still found it incredible: "Can I ask why you thought of giving me this flower?"
"Without pollen, it won't cause your rhinitis."
"No other reason?"
"No."
"Do you know the name of this flower?"
"Cotinus coggygria."
“…”
It’s worthy of him.
Cen Xihuai is still the serious Cen Xihuai.
Xu Qingwu picked up a strawberry and put it in his mouth, chewing it with a crunching sound.
The pink juice dyed her lips shiny as they opened and closed, like overflowing sweet strawberry jam, and Cen Xihuai's heart moved slightly.
"I'm going on a business trip."
"I know, you just said that."
"It'll take a few days."
"That was pretty hard, huh?"
"It means we won't see each other for a few days."
Xu Qingwu was puzzled, so what?
Cen Xihuai stared at her plump red lips, and his textured voice became low: "I think we need to kiss now, to review the past and learn new things."
