Chapter 224 Husband, say something!
In the studio.
Liao Qing walked in with a box of physical albums and placed it on the desk in front of Xia Anruo with a clang.
Xia Anruo, who was still sitting in her seat staring at the ceiling in a daze, was startled and patted her chest: "How did you come in without making any noise?"
"I knocked on the door, but you were in a daze and didn't hear it." Liao Qing glanced at the rise and fall of her chest. For some reason, he was in a good mood today, but suddenly he became unhappy.
Seeing Liao Qing carrying such a large box in, Xia Anruo stood up and looked at it in confusion: "What's in the box?"
“Well, sign these 100 physical albums as a benefit for Weibo fans.” Liao Qing patted the box.
"So many?" Xia Anruo stared.
"Is that too much? There will be more in a few days." Liao Qing smiled, "You signed thousands of autographs before without blinking an eye, why are you not happy with a hundred albums now?"
"I was still young then..."
"You sound very old now." Liao Qing looked at Xia Anruo muttering as he took out a pen and began to slowly sign the album. He shook his head helplessly, "Recently, many variety shows have contacted me and wanted to invite you. Are you interested?"
"Forget it, I'm so tired." Xia Anruo shook her head and refused without thinking.
"You've been at home every day during this period and you don't have to work or do anything else. How can you be tired?" Liao Qing looked at her with confusion.
"You don't understand because you don't have a boyfriend." Xia Anruo curled her lips.
"???"
Liao Qing black question mark.
No, you two must be working the fields hard, right?
Is it great to have a husband?
The fist is hard.
"Married people are different. They work for three days and rest for two days." Liao Qing said sarcastically, "So you are planning to retire now?"
Since the release of the new album, she could clearly feel that Xia Anruo had entered retirement mode.
He doesn't take any advertisements, doesn't appear on TV shows, and doesn't go to commercial performances.
At most, I will accept interviews from reporters.
Even the studio only comes back every few days.
Sure enough, marriage is the grave of life.
For the sake of men, I gave up my career.
"I'm not retiring, I'm just being more casual. I'll just release new songs and stuff like that. I'm too lazy to participate in various activities and programs." Xia Anruo explained.
Rather than retiring, it would be more accurate to say that this was the life she wanted from the beginning.
She just needs to sing her own songs well, and not have to worry about other messy things.
"You are being casual. I feel like there is no need for my agent to exist anymore." Liao Qing pulled a stool and sat down, complaining.
After all, the agent makes a living by following the artists. If the artists she manages fail, she, as the agent, will be forced to fail as well.
If she didn't have to be busy with various activities for the new album during this period, she would probably be idle after this period of time.
"Isn't it good to have some free time? I will still give you your salary. It's high pay and little work, and other people would love that." Xia Anruo said.
"That's good, but if I get used to being lazy and don't know how to do any work, and in a few years you think I'm useless and kick me out, I won't be able to find a job," Liao Qing joked.
Xia Anruo looked up and rolled her eyes at her: "Am I that kind of person? If you really feel like you have nothing to do, I'll let Chu Ze arrange some new people for you to take care of."
"We'll talk about it when the time comes." Liao Qing just said it casually. Who doesn't like a job where they can slack off every day?
Look at that girl Xu Min. Since Xia Anruo no longer has to run around for announcements and no longer needs a driver, she basically stays in the studio every day to watch TV series. Her only job is probably to buy groceries and run errands for Xia Anruo every day. How comfortable it is.
I can only say that sometimes having the right boss is more important than getting into a good university.
With Xia Anruo's personality, as long as you don't act up, this job is basically a stable job and you won't have to worry about your life.
After all, she can't afford to support a few freeloaders, right?
Liao Qing watched Xia Anruo continue to sign albums and asked, "By the way, you've been quite diligent in coming here these past two days. Aren't you tired of your husband?"
"He said he would be on a business trip for two days." Xia Anruo paused while signing and said.
Liao Qing suddenly realized: "No wonder you came to work, so why don't you go with him on his business trip?"
"Why should I follow you?" Xia Anruo asked curiously.
"Keep an eye on him to prevent him from having a life of luxury outside."
"He is not that kind of person." Xia Anruo said with dissatisfaction.
"You're quite relieved."
"Otherwise, of course I'm at ease with my own husband." Xia Anruo said as a matter of course.
Rather than saying she is relieved, it is better to say, how could she not understand her husband?
With Chu Ze's weak body now, he can't afford to spend money on wine and women.
The best way to prevent a man from spending his time drinking and partying outside is to drain him dry in advance.
"Okay, I've had a mouthful of dog food again. I'm full." Liao Qing regretted asking this question for no reason.
Xia Anruo continued to sign more than fifty signatures. Just as she was about to put down her pen and take a sip of tea to rest for a while, Liao Qing, who was looking at his phone, suddenly shouted:
"Oh my god, it sold for 40 million!"
"What 40 million?"
"It's the pair of pink diamonds I shared with you before." Liao Qing showed her the news he had just flipped through.
"Oh, that one, has it been sold?" Xia Anruo took a look.
"Yes, it was auctioned today and just sold for 40 million." Liao Qing put his phone away and sighed.
Spending 40 million to buy a pair of rings, the world of the rich is indeed beyond her imagination.
With this money, you can buy a big villa in Jiangcheng, but you end up using it to buy such a small diamond ring.
Too extravagant.
"The price of pink diamonds is normal." Xia Anruo was not surprised at the price, but felt a little sorry.
She really liked the pair of rings, but she didn't expect them to be bought out so quickly.
"At this price, I can only take a look." Liao Qing sighed. Even if there was one less zero, it was still something she couldn't afford.
"It would be great if you bought it, and I could satisfy my urge to do it here with you." Liao Qing smiled and glanced at Xia Anruo.
"Is this all you have?" Xia Anruo said with a smile.
No wonder Liao Qing had encouraged her to buy it before, because it was all for her own benefit.
……
Today, Xia Anruo stayed in the studio for a whole day, which was a rare occasion. She only left when it was time for dinner.
Because Chu Ze was not at home, it was boring to go home. Xia Anruo was too lazy to go home to cook, so she dragged Liao Qing and Xu Min to a restaurant for a good meal, and did not return home until it was dark.
After opening the door and looking at the dark and empty room, Xia Anruo couldn't help feeling lonely when she thought that she would have to stay alone in the empty room again tonight.
The upper mouth is full, but the lower one is still hungry.
After changing into slippers, she was just about to walk into the living room and turn on the light when suddenly, a hand reached out from behind Xia Anruo in the darkness and rested on her shoulder.
"lady……"
A male voice suddenly sounded behind him. Xia Anruo was immediately shocked and frightened.
Someone came to sneak up on her twenty-something comrade?
In less than a second, Xia Anruo instinctively grabbed the wrist of the hand on her shoulder, and her waist and horse joined together...
Slap it.
A beautiful shoulder throw!
Then the next second, a vulgar word was heard, followed by a muffled sound, which was the sound of someone falling heavily to the ground.
Hello, something seems wrong. Why did the voice just now sound so familiar?
Xia Anruo subconsciously felt that something was wrong and quickly reached out to turn on the light.
pat!
The originally dark room was instantly illuminated, and the man who was thrown over her shoulder by her was seen lying on the ground in the same posture as "Don't stop.jpg".
She took a closer look.
Good news: The person who attacked you was killed by you.
Bad news: This person is your husband.
"Aze?! Why is it you?"
When Xia Anruo saw that it was Chu Ze lying on the ground, her face turned pale and she quickly ran over to help him up.
Husband, what are you doing! Husband!
"Are you okay?"
Chu Ze was stunned by the fall and thought to himself, do I look like I'm okay?
He wanted to speak, but he opened his mouth, but because he was out of breath from the fall, no sound came out and he could only mumble.
Seeing that Chu Ze opened his mouth but made no sound, Xia Anruo thought that he was broken, so she anxiously hugged Chu Ze and shook him.
"Husband, say something! Husband!"
Chu Ze rolled his eyes and thought to himself, "Stop shaking it. You've mixed up all my brains. Even if nothing happened, you'll make something bad happen."
Chu Ze raised his arm and waved, signaling Xia Anruo to stop moving. After a while, he complained:
"You are too cruel. I didn't even have a chance to say anything before you threw me over your shoulder. Are you murdering your own husband?"
Xia Anruo said aggrievedly: "Why did you scare me for no reason? You should have told me earlier when you got home. I thought there was a thief."
Just as you walked in, it was pitch black, and suddenly someone put their hand on you, and there was a voice behind you, anyone would react with stress.
Some timid people might even faint from fright.
"I just wanted to give you a surprise." Chu Ze really didn't think much about it at the time, but now he realized that it was a bit scary that someone suddenly appeared in the house in the middle of the night where there shouldn't be anyone.
However, considering the strength Xia Anruo showed, there seemed to be nothing to worry about...
If he was really a thief, Xia Anruo would have thrown him to death with a shoulder throw.
Fortunately, he and Xia Anruo had fought for hundreds of rounds every day, and he had developed resistance to Xia Anruo, so it was not a big deal. However, he was a little dazed after the fall, and his head is still dizzy now. He didn't know if it was because of the fall or the shaking.
"Are you okay?" Xia Anruo touched Chu Ze's body worriedly, fearing that he was injured somewhere.
"Don't worry about whether I'm broken or not. Please help me check if the things in my pocket are broken first." Chu Ze suddenly thought of something and said to Xia Anruo.
"Something? What?"
Xia Anruo first helped Chu Ze sit down on the sofa, then she reached her hand into Chu Ze's trouser pocket in confusion and quickly took out a small square box.
"This is……"
Xia Anruo blinked and suddenly seemed to understand what this thing was.
This small square box would contain exactly that...
"You'll know when you open it. I hope it's not broken. It's so precious." Chu Ze is not worried about himself now, because he has thick skin and it doesn't matter. The things inside are not as resistant to damage as he is.
Xia Anruo took a breath when she heard that, and slowly opened the box with an expectant look in her eyes.
As the lid opened little by little, soon, a ring inlaid with pink diamonds gradually appeared in front of Xia Anruo, and it bloomed with a gorgeous light the moment it was opened.
"This is... a pink diamond?!" Xia Anruo covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise.
She originally thought that there should be just an ordinary diamond ring inside, but she never expected it to be a pink diamond. What surprised her even more was that this pink diamond ring was exactly the one that Liao Qing had shared with her before?
"Yes, it's precious. It cost me 40 million. Fortunately, you didn't break it." Chu Ze was relieved to see that the diamond ring was still intact.
"How do you know I like this?" Xia Anruo stared at Chu Ze, feeling happy and confused.
But she remembered that she had never mentioned this to Chu Ze at all. How did Chu Ze know about this?
"When you were watching this a few days ago, I glanced at it and remembered it." Chu Ze explained with a smile.
"I remembered it at one glance..." Xia Anruo muttered to herself as she looked at the diamond ring.
I clearly didn't mention it to him, but he took it to heart just because he saw it.
"Is this the reason for the business trip you mentioned?" She suddenly thought of something.
"Yes, I flew to Beijing specially to take the photos. Do you like it?" Chu Ze asked.
Hearing Chu Ze's affirmative reply, Xia Anruo's mind was filled with emotions, her beautiful eyes sparkled, and she was moved in her heart. Without much hesitation, she hugged Chu Ze's neck and kissed him.
Answer Chu Ze's question with practical actions...
Like it, really like it.
It’s not that she likes the ring’s value of 40 million, nor is it that she likes its stunning design, but because Chu Ze bought it for her from afar as a token of his love.
After a long time, their lips parted and Xia Anruo snuggled in Chu Ze's arms. Chu Ze touched Xia Anruo's head and could feel her deep affection for him.
It seems that the 40 million was well spent.
At this moment, Chu Ze suddenly understood the act of spending a fortune to please a beautiful woman...
It’s really satisfying.
"Put it on and see."
Chu Ze took the ring box from Xia Anruo, carefully took out the dazzling pink diamond, and pulled up Xia Anruo's left hand...
Xia Anruo's eyes were shining as she watched quietly as Chu Ze put the gorgeous diamond ring on her ring finger.
The pink gem exudes a breathtaking glow under the incandescent light, perfectly matching Xia Anruo's white and flawless slender jade fingers.
It seems like it was tailor-made for Xia Anruo.
"It's really beautiful!" Chu Ze praised with a smile.
Raising her hand and looking at the shining ring, Xia Anruo couldn't let it go and the sweet smile on her face never stopped.
She suddenly thought, "I remember this should be a pair, right?"
"There's another one in my other pocket." Chu Ze patted the bulging pocket on the other side of his pocket.
"Take it out quickly, and I'll put it on for you too."
Xia Anruo couldn't wait to take out the box, then took out the ring, took Chu Ze's hand, and put it on.
The two of them interlocked their fingers, and the two rings were pressed tightly together, shining like the stars in the sky, just like they are now, perfectly matched.
