Chapter 228 One Hundred and Eighty Million

Gu Zhiyu curled his lips and said, "I don't dare to live off my wife, for fear that she will run away."

Annan laughed and punched him: "Slippery tongue!"

Then he sniffed and said, "Shall we have hot pot today?"

Gu Zhiyu: "Well, Long Congantuo brought you a lot of fresh vegetables."

Annan: "How is he doing lately?"

Gu Zhiyu: "It's pretty good. I study and grow plants in the lab every day at home."

Annan took a look at the vegetables and said, "They are growing very successfully."

Gu Zhiyu smiled and said, "It's perfect for hot pot."

Then he added, "The water is boiling, the meat is cut, and the vegetables will be ready soon. Go change your clothes and prepare to eat."

Annan, a big hotpot lover, immediately went back to his room happily to change clothes.

After changing his clothes, Annan turned down the temperature of the air conditioner a little and sat down at the table.

The pot is a bit too big, half butter pot and half mushroom pot.

Annan hummed a song while dipping a piece of mutton in the spicy hot pot.

Gu Zhiyu helped her prepare the dipping sauce: "Are you in a good mood today?"

Annan took the dipping sauce: "Hmm."

Gu Zhiyu: "It looks like things are going smoothly."

Annan nodded: "Good luck!"

Not only was everything going smoothly, but even the space was upgraded a lot.

Seeing that she was in a good mood, Gu Zhiyu's mood also improved.

Just when he was about to take out the gift he had prepared while Annan was happy, he suddenly noticed her wrist.

"An An, did you change your bracelet?"

"Ah?" Annan was stunned for a moment, then he realized that the bracelet on his hand had a hint of green compared to before.

So he nodded: "Yeah. I got tired of wearing the previous one, so I changed it."

Gu Zhiyu looked at her neck again: "You didn't bring the necklace today?"

I saw her bringing it with her every day.

Annan hummed uncomfortably.

"It's too tiring."

Gu Zhiyu curled his lips and said, "That's great. This is for you."

As he spoke, he handed over the prepared gift.

Annan was stunned: "What?"

Gu Zhiyu: “Open it and take a look.”

Annan put down his chopsticks, opened the box, and what came into view was a sparkling diamond necklace.

The main stone is a 100-carat heart-shaped blue diamond, and the necklace is also dotted with many high-purity one-carat diamonds. At first glance, the sapphire looks like it is held up by a pile of snowflakes.

Annan was a little surprised.

Isn't this so pretty?!

She had bought all the jewelry in the city, but she had never seen such a beautiful necklace.

Gu Zhiyu stood up and walked to her side: "Try it on and try it on."

While helping her put on the necklace, he introduced:

"This necklace is called Heart of Ice and Snow. I bought it at a jewelry exhibition a few years ago. I originally thought of it as an investment, but I never expected that it would have its real owner now."

He took a step back and looked carefully at Annan, who was wearing the necklace.

“It’s beautiful.”

It makes her skin look more fair and her temperament more elegant.

Annan touched the necklace around his neck, stood up and walked to the mirror.

Then his eyes lit up: "This necklace is really beautiful."

Heart of Ice and Snow, the name is very appropriate.

Gu Zhiyu hugged her from behind and said, "As long as you like it. It suits you very well."

This necklace is too eye-catching. If it were worn by someone else, they would easily become the necklace's background. But when worn on Annan's neck, it does not steal the show at all.

Annan smiled in good spirits and accepted the gift generously.

"Thank you, boyfriend."

Gu Zhiyu also laughed: "You're welcome, girlfriend."

The two of them sat back at the table and ate hot pot.

While Annan was cooking, he said casually, "This necklace doesn't look any cheaper than the jade one."

Gu Zhiyu picked up two slices of mutton for her: "Yes."

Annan asked curiously, "Also 80 million?"

Gu Zhiyu: “Almost.”

Annan nodded and put the mutton into his mouth.

Gu Zhiyu: "This one is 180 million."

Annan almost choked on the mutton in his mouth: "How much?"

"One hundred and eighty million?!"

Gu Zhiyu nodded: "Yes."

Annan's mouth twitched.

80 million and 180 million, how are they similar?

It’s one hundred million short!

She suddenly felt her neck was a little heavy. How many houses must she have hung on her neck?

Annan frowned slightly: "This is too expensive..."

Gu Zhiyu: "Not expensive."

Annan: “Isn’t this expensive?”

Gu Zhiyu explained: "It might have been worth a few dollars before the disaster, but now it can't be eaten or drunk, and it can't even buy food for a month."

After a pause, he continued, "It's only valuable if it makes you feel good when you wear it."

Annan's face flushed slightly: "You are really good at speaking."

Gu Zhiyu pursed his lips: "I really think so."

Annan thought for a moment and asked again, "Why are you giving me a gift when it's not a festival?"

Gu Zhiyu looked at her and said, "To make you happy."

After thinking for a while, he put down his chopsticks and said solemnly: "An An, I've thought about it. What I said yesterday may have put pressure on you."

Annan opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know how to explain it.

Gu Zhiyu continued, "You don't need to feel pressured, and don't be unhappy. If you feel that our relationship is developing too fast, or if you feel that I have crossed the line and made you feel insecure, then I will be more careful in the future."

Seeing his serious expression, Annan pursed his lips.

He is really nice.

So good that she was a little at a loss.

"Gu Zhiyu, I'm not unhappy. I just had something to do today, so I didn't bring you along."

Then he added: "You don't have to think so much. This is my first time to establish an intimate relationship with someone, and many times I may not be so thoughtful..."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Zhiyu widened his eyes slightly: "First time?"

Annan didn't respond: "Ah?"

Gu Zhiyu asked again: "You said this was your first time to establish an intimate relationship?"

Annan nodded: "Yes."

Gu Zhiyu: "Didn't you say before that you have an ex-boyfriend you can't forget..."

What is unforgettable?

Annan explained with a bit of a smile: "There is no ex-boyfriend, I was just making it up."

Gu Zhiyu picked up the chopsticks in silence: "Don't talk nonsense next time."

After a while, he raised his lips again and put some food into Annan's bowl: "Eat more."

Seeing that his mouth was almost stretched to his ears, Annan couldn't help but want to laugh.

Are you so happy?

The atmosphere between the two of them became much better. No one mentioned what happened yesterday. They finished the hot pot while chatting and laughing.

After eating and drinking, they took the remaining meat and vegetables out of the pot, rinsed them with clean water, and poured them into Fugui and Tu Ye’s bowls.

Looking at Fugui wolfing down his food, Annan scratched his head and said, "I always feel like I forgot something."

Gu Zhiyu thought for a moment and said, "No?"

Fugui, who was eating with his head down, heard this and glanced at them with a sly look but said nothing.

At night, Annan returned to the bedroom and suddenly sat up from the bed.

"I remember now!"
