Depressed wife runs with the ball

When choosing a gift, Chu Yue, knowing Zhou Xingzhi would be paying, went to a luxury store to pick one out for her. She helped Li Weizhen pick out a pair of BOUCHERON teardrop earrings; little girls should love those kind of bouncy things. She wasn't as attentive when choosing for Zhou Xingzhi, simply picking a bag worth over 100,000 yuan. She also spent over 10,000 yuan on a pair of Saint Laurent high heels.

"Do you want to pick something too?" Zhou Xingzhi felt that she had never asked him to buy anything, and she didn't wear the clothes she prepared very often. "No need." Chu Yue was still looking at the items on the counter. Luxury goods were really not something a poor person like her could easily enter.

Zhou Xingzhi thought she was still angry about the conversation before choosing gifts, so he took out his cell phone to make an appointment, and walked to the parking lot with her hand, carrying bags.

"What are you doing?" Chu Yue was pulled into the elevator before she could even react. "Go buy your own gift."

"I said no, it's your friend's birthday, not mine."

"You should also have what others have." Zhou Xingzhi held her hand tightly.

Chu Yue couldn't persuade him, so she could only let him take her there.

It was a watch shop. When they saw Zhou Xingzhi, someone immediately came up to them and gestured for them to come in. "Mr. Zhou, Ms. Chu, please come in."

Inside was the VIP room. Zhou Xingzhi took her in, asked her to sit on a stool, and stood aside to watch her choose a watch.

"I have it." Chu Yue just didn't bring it today.

"The ones you have were given by your grandparents, but this one is from me, so it's different. I don't like watches, and there are also jewellery next to them."

"..." Chu Yue looked at the latest model of Jaeger-LeCoultre in front of him, and knew without thinking that it cost hundreds of thousands.

"I actually..." She still felt it was unnecessary.

"Here, try it." Zhou Xingzhi tapped the counter with his hand, and the salesperson carefully took out the watch with his white-gloved hands and wanted to put it on Chu Yue.

"Come, let me put it on for you." Zhou Xingzhi took the watch and bent down to put it on her. After putting it on, he looked around and found it was a good fit, especially for a date. "This is it."

Before Chu Yue could think of an excuse to refuse, he had already asked someone to pack up and pay.

"No, the strap doesn't fit." Afraid that he would really pay, Chu Yue quickly took it off.

"If you don't want it, I'll buy them all and have them delivered to your home." Zhou Xingzhi helped her take off the watch and asked the salesperson to adjust the strap.

He was capable of such a thing, so it was hard to say anything. All I could do was let him buy it. He could buy watches worth over four hundred thousand yuan and give away bags worth over two hundred thousand yuan. Even if he was rich, I'd never seen him be so willful.

"Would you like to take a look at the jewelry too?" After choosing the watch, he wanted to pick out the jewelry.

"That's enough. If you do this again next time, I won't go shopping with you." Chu Yue was afraid that he would spend more money and wanted to pull him away. The salesperson added, "Ms. Chu, you can take a look at custom watch straps."

"No... no thanks." He quickly thanked her and left with the bag.

I didn't dare to continue shopping, so I asked him to drive home. After buying the watch, Zhou Xingzhi seemed to be in a much better mood. "You wanted to buy this watch yourself, right?"

"You don't like it? Then let's go back and change it." Zhou Xingzhi pretended to turn around.

"No! I just feel that you... do you really have to spend this money today?" He was already heartbroken because of the high heels worth more than ten thousand yuan, and now holding this watch worth more than four hundred thousand yuan, he felt even more uneasy.

"My girlfriend must have what others have."

Chu Yue probably understood that the watch he gave her was just a way to show his authority as a boyfriend. Lately...his thoughts had become more and more obvious, and his control over her had become more and more.

He sighed deeply and stopped talking.

When they got home, Chu Yue was drawing comics on her iPad in the study, and Zhou Xingzhi was working overtime. He was supposed to do this overtime in the office, but he brought it home to do because he accompanied her out to pick out gifts.

But, I'm just drawing, why are you staring at him? The painting shows villagers sitting in the yard, holding palm-leaf fans, and the male and female protagonists chasing and playing. I was about to post it to my account, but then I remembered the drunk suspect.

She clenched her fists and held her chin up to her chest, wondering if this person was actually Mo Xiaoxiao. Zhou Xingzhi's phone rang, and even answering it didn't bring her out of her daze.

He stood up and answered the phone facing the floor-to-ceiling window, looking back at his girlfriend from time to time. It was already autumn, and she was wearing her purple pajamas. Her index finger tapped the table again and again, with her iPad under her eyelids, supporting her cheek but not looking at the screen. What was she thinking about?

He unconsciously walked over to her, leaned against the corner of the table, and glanced at the screen on the iPad. It reminded him of when he was a child playing with the nanny in the yard of the old house, and the housekeeper accompanied him to fly kites.

But later, the kite was cut into pieces by Zhou Jihuai with scissors.

After hanging up the phone, he picked up the iPad and looked at the painting carefully.

"What are you doing?" Chu Yue came to her senses and tried to take back the iPad. Zhou Xingzhi swiped past the painting, wanting to see what was inside. However, he didn't really read the painting, but he saw the comments below first.

He glanced at her ID, handed the iPad back to her, lowered his head and asked, "What were you thinking about just now? Why were you so engrossed in it?"

"Uh... I'm thinking about what to give you in return." If I tell him about the bad review in my account, he will definitely find the person who did it. If it turns out to be Mo Xiaoxiao, it will make everyone embarrassed.

Return the favor? Hmm... why are you always so polite? "Can you grant me a request?"

"what?"

"I'm the one making the request, and you can't refuse." Zhou Xingzhi thought, if she refuses when he proposes to him in December, can he use this privilege?

Chu Yue was a little stunned and asked again: "What is the request?"

"You're giving me a privilege. I'm asking for it, and you can't refuse."

Chu Yue rolled his eyes. What if it was something like murder, arson, commercial secrets, or something unjust and unkind...

"Don't worry, it's not anything illegal, it's just some small requests." Zhou Xingzhi glanced at the iPad again. The ID seemed to be called "Drunk Suspect". He would ask the network administrator to check it tomorrow.

Then he kissed her on the cheek and returned to his seat to continue working. Chu Yue lowered his head and calmly wiped the place he had just kissed with his hand.

Mo Xiaoxiao didn't find Chu Yue annoying at all. She was pretty, fair-skinned, and a good painter. She was also smart, and compared to Zhou Xingzhi, she seemed more worthy of admiration.

Reading her comics now still brings a sense of comfort. The elementary school students playing in the yard are all wearing their summer uniforms. She also wore similar uniforms when she was in elementary school, playing with her classmates on the playground during physical education class. Back then, there was a boy in her class she had a crush on.

"Xiao Li, did you have a crush on a boy when you were a child?" After Mo Xiaoxiao became busy, she stayed in the company longer.

Xiao Li looked at the comic blogger on the computer screen. "Someone seems to have revealed that this blogger is Mr. Zhou's girlfriend. She was even trending on the search results a while ago."

"Hot search?" Mo Xiaoxiao keenly sensed that someone had bad intentions, but if it really became a hot search, her brother-in-law should have taken action to suppress the topic.

"It's a local hot search. The person who broke the news said that she is Mr. Zhou's girlfriend and has a mother who evaded taxes. But, isn't Mr. Zhou's girlfriend that artist named Duobao?" Xiao Li remembered that when Mr. Zhou was announced, he kissed the artist in a very high-profile manner at the closing ceremony.

"Who broke the news?"

“You can check the comments section, it should still be there.”

Mo Xiaoxiao scrolled down and saw someone named "Drunk Suspect" commenting: "Your mom is in jail, and you still have the mind to paint here!" There were many other comments and a lot of likes below this comment. Although it wasn't the first one, it was still in the top ten.

I clicked on this person's account, but there was nothing there. Well, a young and beautiful artist is already a rare sight, and she has such a handsome and wealthy boyfriend.
