Su Xun’s silence proved Xi Wan’s conjecture to be true.

A look of disdain momentarily crossed her face, but it was quickly replaced with a smile as she said, “This is my house now. You can live here if you want, but you’ll have to pay me.”

Initially, Xi Wan did not want to do this, but the system had kindly reminded her that the refrigerator in the villa was empty, so she could only ask Su Xun to help her.

The system was very regretful of its thoughtless actions. If it had known this would happen, it wouldn’t have said all this. Now Xi Wan was going to offend Su Xun again….

Su Xun’s face stiffened. “Then tell me, what reward do you want?” he asked in a low tone. This woman wouldn’t ask him for money again, would she? Or was she trying to use this opportunity to get something in return for Ling Feng?

Xi Wan rolled her eyes. “I want to drink some wine. I want all kinds of fruit wine and red wine. Oh right, I also want to eat the freshest fruits. The refrigerator is empty, so give me all kinds of lobsters and vegetables, and also get some hotpot soup base. I can make some myself if I’m hungry.”

She walked towards the kitchen. “Is there a hotpot pot here?”

Su Xun frowned at her words and said in disagreement, “You can eat hotpot in a restaurant outside. It’ll be too stuffy if you eat it in the house.”

“I have money. I can hire someone to clean the villa,” Xi Wan immediately replied.

After looking around, Xi Wan said disappointedly, “As expected, I can’t make hotpot after all.”

Then, she looked at Su Xun suspiciously. “How long are you going to stay here?” If he was going to stay for a long time, she didn’t mind, but he would have to pay for the room.

Xi Wan’s expression looked as if she was going to settle the score with him. Seeing that, Su Xun was so angry that he almost laughed.

Although this villa was given to Xi Wan by the Old Master, why didn’t she know how to be polite? He was only sleeping here for a day and yet he already had to buy so many things. And now she was just short of saying that if he wanted to continue sleeping here, he would have to pay.

“I’ll get Zhang Wen to buy the things you’ve mentioned. He knows where to get the freshest ones. Also, do you need any desserts?”

He thought that most girls liked desserts, so Su Xun simply thought that he’d request for all of them in one go so that Zhang Wen, his assistant, would not have to make so many trips to buy desserts.

As expected, Xi Wan’s eyes lit up. “That’s a good suggestion. So you like to eat desserts too? It seems like we have a common interest.”

“…”

When did he say that he loved desserts?

At this moment, Zhang Wen, who had received a message and rushed over with a pile of documents in his arms, walked in breathlessly. boss, do you have any orders? ”

Su Xun looked at Xi Wan. “Tell him your request again.”

Xi Wan smiled. “Okay, then take your phone and write it down. I’m afraid you won’t be able to remember it all.” Most importantly, she was afraid that Zhang Wen would miss some things.

While she was talking to Zhang Wen, she quietly added more things she wanted him to buy.

By the time Zhang Wen was done recording, his memo was full.

He looked at Xi Wan and then at his boss.

Why did the Young Madam order so much wine? And these dishes were obviously for hotpot. He remembered that the boss didn’t like to eat hotpot; he’d always thought that the taste of hotpot was too strong. Could it be that the relationship between the boss and the madam had improved to the point where the boss wanted to eat hotpot and drink wine to create a romantic atmosphere?

Great! The boss had finally thought it through.

He knew it—why was the boss still so chaste even when he was with such a beautiful wife? She heard that the two of them were married in name only. They didn’t usually eat together, but now they were close enough to drink together. This was a necessary step to warm up their relationship!

Zhang Wen was full of anticipation and ended up buying a lot of wine. After he returned, Xi Wan watched as he stuffed all sorts of bags into the villa. The originally empty refrigerator was filled to the brim.

Xi Wan silently gave Zhang Wen a big thumbs up. “You’re really amazing.”

After that, Xi Wan happily made a fruit salad for herself, poured some wine as a treat, washed some pretty plates, and placed the food on them.

Even Zhang Wen was a little envious.

Thinking of the Old Master’s orders to create as many opportunities as possible for the president and his wife to interact with each other, Zhang Wen took the initiative to say, “Madam, it’s better to enjoy hotpot with everyone. Why don’t you eat with the boss?”

Xi Jin was stunned for a moment. She thought that Su Xun had wanted to eat something else. After all, Su Xun didn’t seem like he liked hotpot at all.

“Does he like hotpot?” Xi Wan asked, puzzled.

Zhang Wen remained silent. Should he tell the truth? Of course not! The truth was clearly not something that could be said at this time.

“Why don’t you go and ask the boss? Maybe he might like it,” he ended up saying.
