The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife - Chapter 226:
Chapter 226: Chapter 226: Refusing to Sign for a Living Personi
Hai Xiaotang had no idea what Dongfang Yu thought of her.
Today, she didn’t go to the library, choosing to study at home instead.
Hai Xiaotang was certainly hardworking now, pouring into her studies as much as two or three times the time her classmates would.
What was that saying again? The tears you shed in marriage are the water that got into your brain when you chose your husband.
Hai Xiaotang couldn’t think of anything more fitting to describe her situation.
Even the sweat she was pouring out for her studies could be considered the water that got into her brain when she chose her husband…
Hai Xiaotang just wanted to drain all that water from her brain now, even if the process was painful.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be any space left in her head for anything else.
Before she knew it, Hai Xiaotang had studied until evening.
As night fell, the warm lights lit up in the old Hai Family residence.
Dongfang Yu’s car was parked outside the gate, a glance through the window would reveal the light on in her room.
The man’s lips curved into a tiny smirk and instructed the driver lightly, “Go knock on the door.”
“Yes!”
After a while, Nanny Zhang knocked on Hai Xiaotang’s bedroom door, “Miss, someone sent you a package. They said it needs your personal signature.”
Hai Xiaotang lifted her head from her desk in surprise, “My package?”
“Yes, and it’s pretty big.” Nanny Zhang replied with a smile.
Hai Xiaotang was puzzled, she hadn’t bought anything. Where could this package be from?
Could it be from someone else? From Dongfang Yu?
Nonetheless, Hai Xiaotang decided to go downstairs to collect the package. As soon as she stepped out the front door, she saw a luxurious Lincoln car!
She recognized the car right away, one of the vehicles owned by the Dongfang family!
The car door was open, with Dongfang Yu lounging inside, his gaze fixed on her, a faint smile playing on his lips.
Hai Xiaotang knew instantly that she had been duped.
She replied grumpily, “Indeed, a very large package. But it’s too expensive, 1 can’t afford it, so I refuse it!”
Upon finishing, she turned around to leave.
“Hai Xiaotang.” Dongfang Yu burst into laughter, “This package is free of charge.
Hai Xiaotang turned back, “I still can’t accept it. You should return it.”
“Only you can accept it. And you can’t refuse!”
“Sorry, I never sign for living people. It’s illegal.”
“Living people?” Dongfang Yu raised an eyebrow, “The package I sent you was this.”
He lifted a beautifully wrapped food box, with a picture of a roast duck that appeared to be wafting its own aroma.
As soon as Hai Xiaotang saw the box, her appetite quite shamelessly kicked in.
Dongfang Yu flashed a light smile: “Your favourite Su’s roast duck. After studying all evening, you can have a few bites. I think it would definitely invigorate you.”
Hai Xiaotang was surprised. How did he know that when she was studying, she always wanted to eat roast duck?
She had always eaten it at home and never in front of him!
There must have been a traitor in the house…
Dongfang Yu beckoned, “Come and get it. My health isn’t too good, I can’t leave the car.”
Hai Xiaotang replied flatly: “If you’re not well, then you shouldn’t be coming here. If anything happens to you because of me, I won’t be able to bear it.” Dongfang Yu’s laughter grew even more pleasant, “I know you care about me, that’s why I plan to leave as soon as I’ve delivered the duck. 1 don’t want you to worry too much.”
“Who cares about you!” Hai Xiaotang thought he was too narcissistic. Her concerns were really quite ordinary, and they weren’t because she cared about him.
“Whether you care about me or not, please take the roast duck. I care about you.” Dongfang Yu said sincerely.
“…” Hai Xiaotang stood still, not moving an inch..
