My Little Sweet Wife Chapter 374
Advertisement
Xian Zihao took his arm from Jiang Ruolan and hugged her waist tightly, protecting her bulging stomach and herself from the crowd. As the two of them walked around a western-style barbeque stall, Jiang Ruolan suddenly caught a glimpse of all kinds of small items placed on the counter.
For someone like Jiang Ruolan, who considers herself a 'bumpkin', this little gift was enough to attract her attention. She glanced at the sign which had $5 and $60 circles written on it. Even though the price was a little more expensive, she still turned around and pulled Xian Zihao's shirt while smiling, "Hubby, give me 5 dollar~"
Xian Zihao was looking at something else nearby, but when he heard Jiang Ruolan's words, he turned to look at her, then glanced at the sign behind her, and then saw the small objects on the counter.
This was a common type of game in China. The items trapped in the trap provided would belong to them. However, he didn't think that Jiang Ruolan would be attracted to such a small game.
In the past, they both visited the night market in China. They had passed such a stall at that time, and Jiang Ruolan was not very interested in it. It seemed that she really thought of this trip as a tour.
Xian Zihao chuckled and passed her his wallet.
Jiang Ruolan rummaged in his wallet for a long time before finally finding a small sum of US dollars. After giving the money to the shop owner, she took ten bamboo rings and stood on the edge of the yellow dividing line. She looked closely at the twenty-centimeter pumpkin mask carved from something that looked like ivory.
She started throwing one bamboo ring, but the ring just passed the mask.
Jiang Ruolan gritted her teeth in anger. She still had nine bamboo rings in her hands, so she just threw 3 of them everywhere. She wouldn't be so stupid as to spend almost $30 on any one of them. It would be too shameful if she ended up returning empty-handed!
However, after throwing it, the three bamboo rings were wasted just like that. Not one hitting the items at the counter.

At this moment, Xian Zihao walked to her side. Although he didn't make a sound, Jiang Ruolan paid more attention to his expression as she felt it very embarrassing.
Sure enough, he was laughing!
Jiang Ruolan's mouth twitched as she looked at his smile. "Are you laughing at me?"
Xian Zihao wiped the smile from his face, but the corners of his mouth still curled up. "No, no."
Jiang Ruolan was not convinced and directly pushed the remaining bamboo ring into his hands, "How about you do it, let me see how strong you are. President Xian must have some tricks in his sleeve. There's definitely something wrong with this bamboo ring, otherwise, why not even one of them caught these items!"
"There's nothing wrong with these bamboo rings. Your method is the one that is wrong." Xian Zihao, who always had a faint smile on his face, said softly as he took the remaining bamboo rings from her hand. Then, he raised his eyebrows and asked softly, "You like that pumpkin mask?"
Although Jiang Ruolan nodded in agreement, she still didn't believe that Xian Zihao would succeed. She was not so stupid as to not be able to throw some of the bamboo rings. This bamboo ring will change direction if it comes in contact with the wind. It was very light and difficult to control.
She glanced at him and said, "You just have to get that pumpkin mask for me. I--"
Before she could finish her sentence, Xian Zihao had swung his hand, and one of the bamboo rings wrapped tightly around the pumpkin mask.
Jiang Ruolan's words suddenly choked on her throat as she widened her eyes in astonishment. She then saw the remaining bamboo rings in Xian Zihao's hand.
How did he catch it so easily?!
"What else?" Xian Zihao asked casually.
Jiang Ruolan casually pointed at a few small items that were not easy to catch. Eventually, the bamboo ring in his hand flew to the place she was pointing to and each of them caught the items.
This time, Jiang Ruolan was not the only one who couldn't accept this. Even the boss, who watched the good show, got up quickly, picked up small items, put them in a bag, and replaced them with some big stuff that was harder to catch.

It was already hard enough to catch all these items. Xian Zihao still had two bamboo rings in his hands. Jiang Ruolan's mouth twitched as she approached him and whispered, "You just want to show off don't you?"
Xian Zihao chuckled. "What do you think?"
The corner of Jiang Ruolan's mouth continued to twitch. "I guess you were just showing off. How can you be like this." While she said this, she happily took the bag full of items Xian Zihao had won and said, "It is unrealistic to take all this stuff, it's too heavy to carry. I think that's enough."
"Up to you." Xian Zihao put down the remaining bamboo rings in his hand, his eyes filled with a doting smile.
There was an artificial lake near the night market. The environment was quite good. Jiang Ruolan loves the pumpkin mask so much that she will put it in front of her from time to time. Then she would put it in front of Xian Zihao.
"It's still a long time before Halloween. Are you going to bring this back home?" Xian Zihao chuckled.
Jiang Ruolan smiled, raised the mask in her hand, and said in a strange voice, "Pumpkin, Zihao, pumpkin Xian ~"
Xian Zihao's face instantly darkened.
Jiang Ruolan, on the other hand, holds a pumpkin mask and walks around the lake.
At this moment, Xian Zihao's cell phone rang. He looked at the caller's ID, and when Jiang Ruolan turned to look at him, he said softly, "It's a call from the company."
After that, he answered the call and calmly looked at the moonlight's reflection on the lake. He then looked at Jiang Ruolan, who happily flipped the pumpkin mask in her hand.
It was unknown what was said by the person on the other side of the phone. Although Xian Zihao's expression did not change, but his voice carried a hint of seriousness, "Didn't I tell you not to sign this contract rashly for the next two days? How did Vice-President Wei instruct you?"
"The shares that have been agreed with the SAIC company are forty percent, so who among you will be responsible for this loss?"
Xian Zihao frowned and looked annoyed. He lowered his voice slightly. "Let the SAIC people wait in the company. I will be there."
"Guiying was temporarily unable to continue taking over the company, and the decision for Vice President Wei to take over her job was set by me. If you guys are unwilling to accept it, then come and tell me directly. If I find out that some of you are ruining Xian Enterprise's reputation for your own benefit, then don't blame me when I use the most brutal method to drive you all away from the company!"
"Cut the crap, explain it to me when I get to the company!"
Seeing Xian Zihao, who was usually calm, became angry, Jiang Ruolan immediately walked over. She rarely heard him speak in a cold tone without leaving a single face for the other party.
She put her arm around his waist and leaned closer to him as if to comfort him before asking in a small voice, "What's wrong? What's wrong with Xian Enterprise?"
Xian Zihao put down the phone, and the coldness in his eyes became soft. "It's nothing. There are some internal conflicts between company executives."
He looked at the time, and there was a hint of regret in his eyes. "I need to get to the office now. Get in the car, I'll take you back to the sanatorium."
"Zihao, let me accompany you to the company. I'm not sleepy, and there's nothing much for me to do when I go back to the sanitarium. Can I accompany you?"
Just as he was about to refuse, Jiang Ruolan smiled and said, "If I'm sleepy, I'll sleep at your company. Your office shouldn't lack a resting room, I want to accompany you."
Seeing that she was acting like a spoiled child, Xian Zihao couldn't do anything about it. With a helpless smile, he pointed his chin in the direction of their car. "Get in."
