Volume 1 Chapter 416: Fatal Question
When Li Tian got up.
Gu Ruoxi was already sitting at the dining table eating the breakfast prepared by Aunt Li. It seemed that she did not go for a morning run today. Li Tian naturally knew that it had a lot to do with his torment last night.
Although the movements were very gentle last night, it lasted for a long time. In the end, Ruoxi's wife was so exhausted that she couldn't pretend to be asleep anymore, so she hugged him with her backhand.
"Good morning, aunt." Aunt Li greeted Li Tian warmly.
"morning."
Li Tian nodded in greeting.
Then he sat opposite Gu Ruoxi, who was chewing a piece of toast slowly while browsing current affairs news on his laptop.
She was wearing a professional suit with a bow tied on her chest, her pretty face was rosy, and she looked cool yet cute.
"Why are you always looking at me?"
Although the two became a real couple last night, Gu Ruoxi still felt uncomfortable being stared at by Li Tian.
"I think I have answered this question before. If someone asks me the same question, I will never answer it a second time. But my wife is different. I will answer it as many times as she asks me."
Li Tian had a wicked smile on his face. "Because my wife is so beautiful, I never get tired of looking at her."
"Boring."
Gu Ruoxi rolled her eyes at him and continued browsing the news.
After becoming a real couple, her tone towards Li Tian was not so cold anymore.
Aunt Li brought over bread, soy milk, and some porridge. Li Tian had lived here for quite some time, and she had already figured out his breakfast habits.
I like to drink black rice porridge, I don’t like milk, but I have a special liking for soy milk. Bread is optional, but adding a poached egg will make it perfect.
"Let me ask you a question. Apart from your ex-wife Zhong Lijuan, how many other romances have you had?" Gu Ruoxi suddenly asked.
Li Tian almost spit out a mouthful of soy milk. This is a life-threatening question. If a man really answers a few of them, he will be dead. Women will think that you can't forget your ex and remember him so clearly.
However, he is not a novice but a seasoned warrior, and he will definitely not fall into such a trap.
"Wife, I don't think this is important. What's important is that I finally waited for you. Waiting for you is my greatest luck in this life!" Li Tian said quickly and affectionately.
Gu Ruoxi glanced at her laptop. When she was browsing the current affairs news just now, a pop-up window appeared, saying that a few questions could verify whether a man really loves you. She clicked on it, and this was one of the questions. Although Li Tian’s answer was different, the meaning expressed was similar to the correct answer.
This made her very happy.
So I thought this little pop-up window was very interesting and then tested my husband.
She opened a photo on her mobile phone and handed it to Li Tian.
Li Tian saw that there was not only Gu Ruoxi, but also another beautiful lady. He looked more closely and thought, oh my god, isn't this the female star Su Liyu, who is known as the national goddess? How could Ruoxi's wife have a photo with her? Could they be friends?
"Is this the big star Su Liyu?" Li Tian asked.
"Um."
Gu Ruoxi nodded, and then asked casually, "Who do you think has prettier legs, mine or hers?"
Although it seemed nonchalant, Li Tian knew that this was another life-threatening question.
If you answer at this time that your wife is pretty, it is still not the right answer, because a man can only have his wife in his eyes, so how can he dare to look at other women?
"I was just staring at your legs, not hers. Let me take a look first."
Li Tian answered, picking up his phone to look at it again, "Well, although Su Liyu's legs are indeed good, Ruoxi's wife's legs are still prettier, far better than hers."
This is somewhat untrue. As a popular superstar, her body is naturally perfect. Su Liyu's legs and Gu Ruoxi's legs are actually comparable.
"real?"
"Of course it's true." Li Tian assured.
Gu Ruoxi picked up the milk and took a sip, feeling secretly delighted because Li Tian's answer was almost the same as the correct one, which showed that Li Tian really loved her.
In addition, she enjoyed it very much when Li Tian praised her beautiful legs.
She quickly saved the pop-up window and planned to take a closer look at it later. It was indeed quite interesting.
"A war broke out in Country X, and various countries are urgently evacuating their overseas Chinese." Gu Ruoxi shared the latest current affairs. When she talked about the war, her brows furrowed.
"It seems that the world has never been peaceful."
Li Tian was quite emotional, and suddenly remembered Song Ziyan's mention of being a war correspondent. "By the way, does your cousin still want to be a war correspondent?"
"My uncle and aunt were strongly against her becoming a war correspondent. This time in Nanqing, she suffered a great shock and must have been traumatized. She must have given up," Gu Ruoxi analyzed.
"Just give up. It's too dangerous for a girl to go to a war zone. Also, I heard that the social status of women in Country X is very low and rapes often happen there. When something happens, most people blame the woman for wearing revealing clothes to attract men. The woman is primarily responsible and the man is secondarily responsible. Now there's a war there, the country no longer exists, and the law no longer exists. If your cousin goes there, any man in Country X could threaten her personal safety." Li Tian said.
Gu Ruoxi nodded in agreement.
At this moment, Li Tian's cell phone suddenly rang.
It’s Lu Jiao calling!
He answered the phone immediately, and in order to show that he and Lu Jiao were on speaking terms, he even turned on the speaker so that Gu Ruoxi could hear it.
"Little Lu."
This was something he had discussed with Lu Jiao long ago. If Gu Ruoxi was around, he would call her Xiao Lu, and if not, she would be A Jiao.
Lu Jiao understood what he meant: "Boss, the address of the famous chef has been chosen, and Binhai has sent a lot of bones here. I will also come over in two days."
They spoke very respectfully, without any ambiguity, and it was purely a superior-subordinate relationship.
"Well, the addresses and decoration of more than a dozen branches will also be started at the same time. I want to get it done in one step." Li Tian said.
"Okay, boss." Lu Jiao said with a smile.
After that, the call ended.
Lu Jiao tried her best to restrain her excitement and affection for Li Tian, otherwise, she would have called him husband in a coquettish way.
"Isn't this step too big? Shangjing is not like Binhai. Minfu, Fengzeyuan, Quanjude, Bianyifang, Hongbinlou... are all time-honored restaurants in Shangjing. I admit that the food of the famous chefs is indeed unique, but if the local climate doesn't suit you, all your investment will go down the drain."
Gu Ruoxi kindly reminded that she felt Li Tian was too confident in his celebrity chef business. Others were opening up one by one, but Li Tian was opening more than a dozen branches in Beijing at once. This was not a small investment.
"It's okay. I've done market research. In fact, many people in Shangjing know me as a famous chef. Some even go to Binhai specifically to taste my dishes. A famous chef does not come to Shangjing to adapt to the climate and soil here, but to conquer the taste buds of Shangjing people." Li Tian said with a smile.
