Chapter 122 Diligence and Thrift in Housekeeping
Zhuang Xiao was destined to have an uneasy sleep as he was disturbed by Tu Yan's "peacock spreading its tail" performance. He then wanted to take advantage of the weekend to sleep until noon, but he was unexpectedly woken up by the electromagnetic sound in his head.
"What did you do!?" No. 23 asked in a high voice.
Zhuang Xiao was very sensitive to the sound of the system. He was frightened and opened his eyes suddenly.
I subconsciously looked at the time, it was exactly eight o'clock.
He collapsed back into the quilt and asked unhappily, "What are you doing?"
"Now I'm asking you what you did?" No. 23 was almost going crazy, "Why did the hero's personal wealth ranking drop?"
God knows how devastated No. 23 was when he received the warning message and learned that the world's mission was decreasing instead of increasing.
Zhuang Xiao also understood, and in his dazed mind he recalled the main plot of the world mentioned by No. 23 - Tu Yan had been making rapid progress and became the richest man in the world. Now something had gone wrong with this main plot, and it seemed very serious indeed.
But Zhuang Xiao could only say that he was helpless about No. 23's anxiety and anger, "How should I know..."
Halfway through his words, some images flashed through Zhuang Xiao's mind, and he sat up suddenly, "Last night I dreamed that Tu Yan gave me a set of chromatographic diamond rings..."
As he was speaking, Zhuang Xiao felt something was wrong with his hands that were supporting the mattress. Something was poking at him and he couldn't close his fingers.
I looked down and gasped.
I raised my hands with trembling hands. It was actually true?
Looking at the ten dazzling diamond rings, Zhuang Xiao suddenly felt his hands become extremely heavy.
Looking at the two beads on her little finger, she almost fell off in her sleep. She couldn't help but feel worried. Why didn't he take them off for her? What if she threw them off in her sleep and got hurt... Zhuang Xiao didn't even dare to think about it.
Zhuang Xiao carefully took off the rings one by one and put them into the ring box.
"So now you know why the hero's assets evaporated so much overnight?" No. 23 watched her actions and got the answer to the question.
Zhuang Xiao rarely felt guilty when facing No. 23. He stiffened his neck and said, "You can't blame me for this. Didn't you tell me to worship money?"
"This is my character!" Zhuang Xiao closed the ring box and put it back on the bedside table. "Besides, I didn't ask for anything, and he didn't give me anything else. Just these ten rings..."
“What else do you want?” No. 23 laughed sarcastically, “Let me remind you, your engagement ring is worth more than million, and the rest are worth hundreds of millions…”
No. 23 did not expect that the male protagonist would be so honest and generous. He was not like this to the female protagonist in the book.
"Ah?!" Zhuang Xiao's eyes widened in shock. He felt a little dizzy when he looked at the pink diamond in his hand. "Is it true?"
She thought that the ring was worth a lot of money, but she didn't expect it to be so valuable. She actually wore it while eating, drinking, defecating and urinating these days?
"Then, what should I do now?" Zhuang Xiao got out of bed, holding a pile of ring boxes, and walked around the room trying to figure out where to put them safely. "Should I continue?"
Faced with Zhuang Xiao's sincere question, No. 23 felt very upset, "If you keep doing this, the male lead will earn less than you spend. When will you become the richest man?"
Zhuang Xiao counted on his fingers and realized that earning billions a day...it seemed a bit difficult.
No. 23 adjusted his fluctuations, "Don't do it anymore. No, change the way you do it. Change your hobbies. Don't buy diamond rings or jewelry anymore. Change to something that doesn't cost so much."
Zhuang Xiao curled her lips when she heard this, "This doesn't fit my personality of a gold-digger, does it?"
No. 23: “…” What can I do? I feel so miserable!
"Anyway, just keep him calm and wait until the heroine comes back." No. 23 was exhausted and didn't want to think too much, so he just gave up.
Although it couldn't see what was good about Zhuang Xiao, but judging from the fact that Tu Yan looked like he was under a spell, as long as Zhuang Xiao maintained his level, it shouldn't be a problem for him to occupy the heroine's territory for a year or two.
Everything has been planned for the 23rd. It doesn’t matter whether Zhuang Xiao acts up or not now. Just wait for the heroine to come back and let Zhuang Xiao break up directly.
The male protagonist is a child of destiny, such a proud man that it is impossible to keep him. He will definitely be deeply hurt, and it is only natural for him to be with the female protagonist.
After No. 23 expressed his idea, he felt relieved.
Zhuang Xiao recalled Tu Yan's deep gaze on her, and boldly proposed a hypothesis, "What if..."
"I mean, what if?" Zhuang Xiao paused and put on a protective armor for himself, "What if he insists on marrying me?"
"How is that possible?" No. 23 scoffed at Zhuang Xiao's concerns, "Who do you think you are?"
----
One year later, still in this bedroom, No. 23's tone was almost broken, "Who are you?!!"
Sitting on the bedside, Zhuang Xiao felt a headache from the loud electromagnetic sound. He rubbed his temple and said, "Keep your voice down. Don't let Tu Tu hear it."
Zhuang Xiao's eyes fell on the frosted glass door of the lighted bathroom. Although it was still the same apartment, two months ago, Tu Yan took advantage of the time when Zhuang Xiao and he went out to play during the summer vacation to renovate the house, and the two bedrooms had been merged into one.
In fact, half a year ago, Tu Yan slept more often in Zhuang Xiao's room.
It all started when the two were watching a movie and Zhuang Xiao fell asleep on the sofa, so Tu Yan carried her back to the bedroom.
After this push, he could no longer walk. When Zhuang Xiao woke up, he found himself lying on Tu Yan's broad, warm chest.
She rested her head on his arm, with her hand on his chest.
Zhuang Xiao recalled the scene at that time and moved his fingers unconsciously.
She still remembers the touch at that time. Tu Yan's skin was tight and his chest muscles were slightly raised. Different from what he saw, his chest muscles were soft and flexible, and felt very good.
Her index finger was pointing at the gap between the two pectoral muscles, casting a faint shadow, which was extremely ambiguous.
Because of this, when Zhuang Xiao woke up, she lost the initiative because of shyness, and Tu Yan took the initiative and accused Zhuang Xiao of holding his collar and refusing to let go when she fell asleep.
"I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I wanted to wait a while until you fell asleep and then relax, but I didn't expect you to fall asleep."
These are Tu Yan’s original words.
At that time, Tu Yan was speaking while revealing his pajamas which had only two buttons left torn. There was evidence everywhere, which made Zhuang Xiao speechless.
Zhuang Xiaoben thought it was just an accident and the shame would soon pass.
But unexpectedly, Tu Yan didn't want to let this matter go.
After going back to sleep three times for no reason, Zhuang Xiaofu came to his senses, "We are already engaged, it would be a waste to sleep in two rooms, why not..."
To be honest, Zhuang Xiao blushed when he said this. What kind of a ridiculous excuse is this? It's too ridiculous.
Before Zhuang Xiao finished speaking, Tu Yan, who was typing away on the keyboard at his desk, suddenly stood up.
Tu Yan's lips curled up in an arc that could not be suppressed. "What you said makes sense. We should be frugal and manage our family well."
