My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day

Chapter 602: 602, Master Chu, you really know how to have fun!

It was already seven o’clock in the evening. The clubhouse was particularly crowded due to the holiday, with the lobby completely filled with people. The scent of fine wine and food filled the air, accompanied by the rich aroma of roses.

The waiter led the two of them straight to the elevator and they finally arrived at the “Fire Emperor” private room on the sixth floor.

It was Chu Xiuhuang’s private room.

The dining table inside was already set up. The white tablecloth draped over the rectangular table, with two sets of Western cutlery systematically placed at both ends of the table. In the middle were two elegant classical lamps, each holding a white candle. The red candlelight jumped and flickered.

It was evident that the room had been painstakingly decorated. Pink roses were placed everywhere, with red rose petals scattered all over the floor, along with all sorts of pink and red balloons, streamers and so on.

Multiple colorful lights hung on the side wall, emitting gentle glows, and various pink heart-shaped paper cutouts were stuck on the glass wall.

The faint scent of roses pervaded the air, giving off an ambiance of ambiguity.

Shi Huan was slightly taken aback, “Mr. Chu, what’s this?”

“It’s Valentine’s Day, don’t you know?” Chu Xiuhuang raised his long eyebrows, with an indifferent attitude, “Sigh, the staff knew I was coming to dine and insisted on arranging this lavish setting. There’s no option but to put up with it.”

Shi Huan: “…Alright then.”

Not long after they sat down, the door was pushed open. Several waiters walked in second, each carrying a tray and began to serve their dishes.

The table was gradually filled with decadent and ample French-style meals. Steak, lamb leg, snails, foie gras… and red wine, along with a variety of side dishes.

The dishes were exquisitely plated and the sauce was delectable, which was quite a feast for the eyes.

Everything was a luxurious feast!

Compared to the dishes that Zhu Mingpeng ordered at Xiaoye Garden before, these were definitely superior.

After all the dishes were served, Chu Xiuhuang asked, “Little Huanhuan, is this enough food?”

“Yes, yes, yes!” Shi Huan almost stuttered.

Chu Xiuhuang could not help but laugh, keeping his chuckle suppressed. He wiped his fingers clean with a wet tissue, then took his knife and fork and started cutting the steak.

With a thin lipped smirk, his movements were elegant yet brisk and smart. His expression was focused and handsome while cutting the steak, as if he were not cutting steak but rather, a treasured masterpiece.

But Shi Huan was not in the mood to enjoy the food.

One, because she had already eaten enough earlier.

The second reason was that she was in pain!

This meal must cost tens of thousands at least, right?

It seemed that all the money she had earned from nursing Chu Xiuhuang during his hospital stay was going to be spent on this meal.

While she was still in her thoughts, Chu Xiuhuang placed the cut steak in front of her.

Shi Huan hesitated for a moment and hurriedly said, “I won’t eat anymore.”

Chu Xiuhuang raised his eyebrows and smiled, “Why not? Do you not like the food here, Little Huanhuan?”

Shi Huan forced a smile, “No, I just ate too much earlier.”

“And you could eat with that disgusting man?”

Shi Huan: “…”

“I’m not eating anymore!” Chu Xiuhuang suddenly dropped his knife and fork and then rang the service bell.

Shi Huan looked at him, her face full of confusion.

What’s going on now?

There’s a whole feast on the table. He hasn’t eaten a bite, and now he is not going to eat?

The waiter quickly walked in, “Boss, what can I do for you?”

“Bill, please!”

The waiter was taken aback.

What in the world was the boss doing?

Isn’t this his own club?

Chu Xiuhuang’s phoenix eyes turned cold, “Are you deaf? The bill!”

“Yes.” The waiter, all terrified, quicky took out his mobile phone.

After a while, “Boss, the total is one hundred and ninety-eight thousand, eight hundred and eighty-eight yuan.”

Shi Huan’s eyes jumped, her voice audibly raised in shock, “How much?”

“Secretary Shi, the total is one hundred and ninety-eight thousand, eight hundred and eighty-eight yuan.” The waiter repeated.

“Is it that expensive?”

Shi Huan didn’t want to seem like a person who hadn’t seen the world before, but…

Oh my God, this is too expensive!

“Yes, this bottle of wine alone is worth one hundred and ninety thousand yuan.” The waiter explained in a slightly unnatural expression.

Shi Huan looked at the bottle of red wine, her face full of despair.

The wine worth one hundred and ninety thousand yuan, he only took a sip.

At this moment, Chu Xiuhuang spoke, “What’s wrong? Is Little Huanhuan thinking that the dishes I ordered are too expensive?”

Although he said so, there was no sign of guilt on his face.

Shi Huan looked at him, biting her lip, her small face tense, remaining silent.

Chu Xiuhuang could barely hold back his laughter.

After several coughs to suppress his smile, he then took out a black card with all seriousness and handed it to the waiter, “Just use my card then.”

“Ah?” The waiter was shocked yet again.

What’s going on? The boss eating in his own restaurant has to pay using his own card?

Chu Xiuhuang smiled, “Don’t understand, huh?”

The waiter shook his head.

He didn’t understand.

Who could understand the boss’s train of thought?

Chu Xiuhuang continued laughing devilishly, “Today, Secretary Shi is treating me to this meal. Do you understand now?”

“I understand, sir.”

Barely holding back his laughter, the waiter accepted the card and hurriedly left.

Just as he closed the door, he heard Chu Xiuhuang say, “It’s okay. When you have money, you can pay me back.”

The waiter almost slipped and fell.

The truth was that this is your property and you’re using your own card to pay for a meal at your own restaurant, but you still want Secretary Shi to owe you that much money… Boss, you sure know how to play!

The door closed and silence returned to the private room.

Shi Huan sat there, listless.

She couldn’t help it, as out of nowhere, she suddenly owed a debt of nearly 200,000 RMB. How can she keep her spirits up?

Chu Xiuhuang watched at the sulky little woman in front of him, his deep eyes filled with amusement.

She looked just like an agitated little bunny. Her cheeks were puffed out in frustration, which made her look unbearably adorable.

Had they not been sitting face to face, their distance too great, he would have really liked to poke her cute chubby cheeks…

With a ‘clang’, the box door was suddenly pushed open.

“Big brother!”

A sweet feminine voice came in.

Shi Huan lifted her head and saw a young girl entering.

It seemed to be one of Chu Xiuhuang’s cousins.

She was probably in her early twenties, with short hair that fell to her ears, she was on the slim side, dressed in a purple waist-cinching dress, delicately made-up, and she wore a bright smile.

“Big brother, so you are really eating here, such a coincidence, our family is having our meal downstairs, Sister Jingyi is also there.”

As she was speaking, she proceeded to look around the box. Then she turned to Shi Huan, her face full of hostility, “Who are you?”

Dressed so simply, eating with her cousin, and also with so many roses present?

It was Valentine’s Day. Could they be dating?

But this woman looked so ordinary.

“Leave.” It was Chu Xiuhuang who spoke.

Jian Xiaoman pouted, “Big brother, you are having a date with a woman here, are you afraid I might tell our aunt?”

Chu Xiuhuang squinted his eyes, he was becoming a little impatient, “Are you leaving or not?”

“Big brother, you…” Jian Xiaoman’s face went through myriad emotions as she was bluntly told to leave.

However, it was clear that she was truly afraid of Chu Xiuhuang.

Although this cousin of hers was usually eccentric, he was truly frightening when he decided to be serious.

Especially right now, with his narrowed eyes and thin lips, an aura of chill sweeping out.

She stomped her feet, glared bitterly at Shi Huan, then finally turned and left.

Just as Chu Xiuhuang was about to speak, the ringing of a cell phone suddenly interrupted.

Shi Huan took out her phone and took a glance, then immediately stood up and said, “I’ll go answer a call.”

**

“What is the matter with you?”

In the corridor, the furious voice of Grandma Shi came over the phone, “Why did you set your dog on Zhu Mingpeng?”

Shi Huan frowned, “This was an accident. He was the first to scold me, so my friend just…”

She didn’t get to finish her sentence before she was cut off.

“If you don’t like him, that’s one thing. But why did you have to injure him so badly? Do you know, Zhu family only has this one son. Now his injuries are severe, with scars on his face and bite wounds on his feet. I heard it even reached his bones. Madam Zhu was so worried she had a heart attack. Now the entire Zhu family, old and young, are all lying in hospital, demanding that our Shi family provide an explanation. Now you want to shirk off your responsibility by saying that he was the first to insult you? Hurry up and get to the hospital, you must personally apologize to Zhu Mingpeng! You have half an hour, did you hear me?”

Before Shi Huan could reply, the call was abruptly hung up.

As she stood there with a furrowed brow, she suddenly felt a strong push against her arm from behind.

Then there was a “crash”, as if something had fallen on the ground.

Shi Huan recovered her senses and turned to see Jian Xiaoman standing before her.

She picked up a red iPhone from the ground and started to holler, “Don’t you have eyes when walk? You broke my phone, you have to pay for it!”

Shi Huan looked at her somewhat speechlessly, “Miss Jian, I was standing perfectly still, it was you who ran into me.”

“Who doesn’t know that you purposely stood here? Only rich men come in and out of Jin Di. Weren’t you here to hook up with one? You’re not exactly good-looking, but you sure have big aspirations. But shouldn’t you be a little prepared? Dressed like that, which man would look at you?”

Her words were harsh, and she made sure they were loud. Shi Huan’s position was close to the outside, where several couples were dining. When they heard the noise, they immediately turned to look.

Even some eager busybodies came forward, whispering among themselves.

Not far away, a figure in red suddenly stopped and silently observed the scene.

“Your entire outfit combined wouldn’t cover a single glass of wine here. If you’re not here to hook up some guy, who would believe that?” Jian Xiaoman continued to clamor persistently.

Shi Huan looked at her, her eyes narrowed. She suddenly laughed.

“What are you laughing about?” Jian Xiaoman glared at her, perhaps because this laughter seemed too uncalled for – it was like… as if she could see through everything, and was mocking her. She couldn’t help but fly into a rage.

Shi Huan said, “Jin Di is equipped with surveillance cameras everywhere. If you insist that I was the one who bumped into you, we can review the CCTV footage and see who is responsible.”

“Who has time to watch the footage with you? My time is very precious!” Jian Xiaoman hadn’t expected this woman to be so sharp.

She waved her hand and was about to leave, “Fine, consider this as my bad luck today, I’m doing you a charity, quickly go away.”

“Wait a moment.” Shi Huan was unwilling to let her off just like that.

Did she think she could insult her and then leave?

In your dreams!

There were people watching from all around.

She might have a good temper, but that didn’t mean she was easy to bully!

Especially when it concerned overbearing people like Jian Xiaoman who picked a fight out of nowhere. If she didn’t give her a taste of her own medicine, she would be letting down Xiaoman’s splendid performance just now!

Moreover, all she was is but a granddaughter-in-law to the Chu family.

The Jian family liked flaunting the Chu family’s prestige and caused trouble everywhere.

“What do you want?” Jian Xiaoman’s face changed slightly.

“Where did you buy this RLUUER dress you are wearing?” Shi Huan asked.

Jian Xiaoman was first stunned, then she relaxed, confidently saying, “You want to buy it? Can you afford it?”

In her opinion, Shi Huan’s dress was completely lacklustre, clearly a cheap product.

“A poor woman who can’t afford RLUUER’s dress, it’s absolutely laughable.” Jian Xiaoman continued her onslaught.

“I just think that the imitation quality of your dress is quite good.” Shi Huan pointed to the logo at the hem of her dress, her smile bright, “But the ‘R’ and ‘L’ letters underneath the logo should be connected, but yours are separated. Aside from that, everything is good enough to fool people.”

“What are you talking about?” Jian Xiaoman’s face darkened again.

This dress was RLUUER’s latest summer style, worth tens of thousands, she couldn’t afford it at all.

But today happened to be a family dinner, with a few cousin sisters present, and Chu Jingyi was there as well.

She’s but a granddaughter-in-law to the Chu family, and she’s in a place like Jin Di.

Everyone in this situation was polite on the surface, but beneath it was a competition and a display of superiority. How could she be left behind?

Chu Jingyi had even mentioned that she liked her dress earlier, never would she have dreamed that it would be exposed publicly now!

In this desperate situation, the only thing she guessed she could do was to blame Shi Huan first, “You country bumpkin, know what? Don’t assume that everyone is as poor as you, buying knock-offs because they can’t afford the real thing!”

Shi Huan remained unangered, and with a smile said, “I don’t really understand fashion, but, coincidentally, this brand recently contacted me for a partnership, so I did some study on their new spring collection.”

Jian Xiaoman: “…”

This must be a joke.

Is it really this coincidental?
