Chapter 1009 High Five Oath
Luo Yechen's eyes lit up and he immediately became energetic.
But he soon calmed down and asked cautiously.
"What if I lose?"
Bu Shengyan smiled and said, "If you lose, you will have to hand over all the small treasury you have saved."
Luo Yechen was shocked and blurted out subconsciously: "How do you know I have a secret stash?!"
He almost bit off his tongue as soon as the words came out of his mouth.
Damn! Why didn't he confess? !
Since the marriage, Bu Shengyan has been the head of the Prince of England's Palace, including all the properties under the name of the King of England. This makes Luo Yechen's life very relaxed. He doesn't have to worry about anything on a daily basis. He just needs to eat, drink, have fun and enjoy life to the fullest.
The only thing that made him unhappy was that he didn't have enough financial freedom.
The financial power of the family is in the hands of Bu Shengyan. She gives Luo Yechen a fixed amount of money every month as pocket money. If the money is spent and Luo Yechen wants more money, he has to report to Bu Shengyan.
Bu Shengyan is not the kind of person who can be easily fooled. If Luo Yechen cannot provide a reasonable reason for using the money, Bu Shengyan will reject his request without mercy.
The reason why Bu Shengyan controls Luo Yechen so strictly is not because she is stingy and domineering, but because Luo Yechen spends money too lavishly!
Luo Yechen is a carefree and stubborn person. Whatever he is thinking is reflected on his face. In addition, he has been raised like a treasure by Concubine Hui since he was a child and has no concept of money at all.
He has only one rule in life:
Money can’t buy my happiness!
Every time he went out with his friends to eat, drink and have fun, he was the one who paid for the meal.
That’s fine, it’s just a small amount of money, Bu Shengyan won’t take it to heart.
What’s annoying is that Luo Yechen is so easy to fool. As long as others praise him with nice words, he can be coaxed around. In the past, people often borrowed money from him with various reasons.
Those reasons sounded like lies, but Luo Yechen believed them!
Over the years, he lent out so much money, but only the emperor repaid the money as agreed. The others never mentioned repayment after borrowing the money.
Luo Yechen himself never urged the borrowers to pay back the money. As time went by, even he had forgotten who those people were who had borrowed the money from.
As for the IOU, there wasn't even a single one.
Those people borrow money just by talking.
So when Bu Shengyan wanted to send someone to collect the debt, there was no evidence, and in the end the matter was left unresolved.
Everyone affectionately calls Luo Yechen the God of Wealth. He is quite proud of it and thinks this nickname is very cool.
But Bu Shengyan knew that the reason why others called him the God of Wealth was actually to mock others for having a lot of money.
Bu Shengyan couldn't interfere with his freedom to make friends. The only thing she could do was to keep the family's financial power firmly in her own hands to prevent Luo Yechen from being tricked into giving away all the family fortune in the future.
Now Luo Yechen was struggling to spend money, so how could he care about others? If someone came to borrow money from him again, he would refuse.
This caused his glorious image in the eyes of his friends to collapse rapidly.
He went straight from being a God of Wealth to being a miser!
Some people even joked that he was henpecked and gave him a new nickname, the Henpecked King.
Luo Yechen cares most about his reputation, how could he stand such provocation? !
In order to prove that he was not henpecked at all, he began to secretly save up some money.
He was feeling very proud of himself as his small treasury grew richer and richer, but he did not expect that his own princess would discover the clues.
Facing Bu Shengyan's half-smiley eyes, Luo Yechen felt his legs tremble, fearing that she would transform into a tiger on the spot and pounce on him to bite this poor little cat to death.
But even though he was scared to death, Luo Yechen still denied it stubbornly.
“I don’t have a secret stash.”
Bu Shengyan casually pulled out a feather duster from the vase next to her and knocked it on the table twice.
"What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly. Please say it again."
Luo Yechen felt as if those two blows had hit the top of his head, and his whole body shuddered.
Damn it, this tigress is threatening him with violence again!
Isn't it just martial arts skills? What's so great about that!
When Xiao Hanhan grows up and learns martial arts, he will let Xiao Hanhan protect himself!
Luo Yechen complained madly in his heart while pretending to be calm.
"Let's bet, I'm sure I can win!"
Once he wins the bet, he will regain his financial freedom and can spend money however he wants, and the princess will no longer be able to control him!
Thinking about it makes me a little excited.
Bu Shengyan put down the feather duster and raised her right hand: "Come on, let's high-five and swear to keep our word."
Luo Yechen raised his right hand and carefully patted the princess's hand. As if he was afraid of being beaten, he quickly retracted his hand and jumped up from the couch.
"I'll go see if Xiaohanhan is asleep?"
After saying that, he ran out in a hurry.
He looked so panicked, as if a tiger was chasing him.
…
The ice on the streets had been cleared and the carriages moved smoothly.
The lantern hanging on the carriage swayed gently, emitting a warm yellow light like a star, which was particularly conspicuous in the cold night.
Dozens of mounted guards followed the carriage.
They are like shadows hidden in the darkness, silent and loyal.
Xiao Xixi asked in the carriage.
"Why is this carriage different from the previous one? Did you change carriages?"
Luo Qinghan said casually: "The carriage was broken."
Xiao Xixi was already there, and hurriedly asked, "Are you hurt?"
Luo Qinghan: "With the amulet you gave me, I'm fine."
He did not mention the driver's death in the fall, nor did he say that someone had written the word "disabled" on the carriage.
What Xixi needs now is rest, and he doesn't want these things to affect Xixi's mood.
Xiao Xixi: "I'll prepare some more amulets for you later."
Luo Qinghan: "No, I still have a lot, I can't use it all in a short time."
Xiao Xixi: "Remember to tell me when you are done."
"Um."
Luo Qinghan put his arms around her waist, let her lean against him, and bent down to kiss her forehead.
The atmosphere inside the car is quiet and gentle.
By the time the carriage arrived at Yunxiu Palace, it was already midnight.
Even so, Luo Qinghan still went to take a shower. When he got dressed and returned to the bedroom, he saw Xixi had fallen asleep in the quilt.
He lifted a corner of the quilt and lay down carefully.
Sensing a familiar breath approaching, Xiao Xixi turned over and moved closer to where Luo Qinghan was, while raising one leg and placing it on his knee.
She groaned incoherently.
"Ahan."
Luo Qinghan was stunned by this title.
