After finishing their conversation, Lu Nianzhi left.
Rong Dai went upstairs to the embroidery room and took a look around. She noticed that Lu Nianzhi hadn't taken the matching jewelry she had prepared for her, nor the specially made silk scarf.
These were all accessories.
Although they may seem insignificant, they can enhance the overall charm of an outfit.
She packed the scarf and jewelry separately in bags and took them downstairs. Glancing at the time, she realized it was still early.
In the past few days, she had fallen behind in her studies, so she tidied up the teacups on the coffee table and went into the study to study.
She had a strong aptitude for learning, high concentration, and coupled with her naturally disciplined nature, she made rapid progress in language learning.
It wasn't until evening when her neck started to feel a bit sore that she got up to stretch and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Just as she finished making dinner, Huo Shao Ting came back.
Seeing her wearing an apron around her waist and the aroma of food filling the house, he felt incredibly content.
Wasn't this what he needed to protect?
Huo Shao Ting changed his shoes and embraced her from behind, his voice gentle, "Wife..."
Rong Dai's heart trembled, her ears slightly blushing, and a hint of anger appeared on her delicate cheeks as she lightly patted his hand on her back.
"Naughty! Go wash your hands, and we just need a bowl of egg soup."
Huo Shao Ting responded lightly and took the opportunity to kiss her cheek before obediently going to wash his hands.
The couple enjoyed dinner together, and after they were full, Huo Shao Ting took the initiative to clean up the dishes and put them in the dishwasher, along with tidying up the dining table.
"It seems that President Huo is skilled in doing housework. From now on, we'll rely on you for the household chores!"
Rong Dai was looking at some etiquette related to fashion shows on her computer when she felt Huo Shao Ting's embrace. She lifted one hand and playfully laid it on the back of his hand, teasing him.
"Alright, your hands are more precious than mine. You're holding an embroidery needle, so of course, you have to protect it well."
Huo Shao Ting didn't take her words as a joke and answered her very seriously.
"Silly girl, I'm not kidding!"
Rong Dai's heart warmed, and she pulled him to sit beside her, turning her head to kiss his cheek.
Huo Shao Ting grabbed a thin blanket and covered her feet, his arms embracing her, allowing Rong Dai to lean against his chest.
"I received an invitation from TK. I'm going to the fashion show tomorrow."
Rong Dai looked at the screen and suddenly stopped scrolling.
She thought about what Lu Nianzhi had said today and what Ha Wei had told her before.
She put her notebook aside, slightly turned her body, and reached out to hold his neck, her dark eyes fixed on him.
"Shao Ting, even if I can't become a partner of TK, it doesn't matter to me."
"Thank you for everything you've done for me, but if such a situation arises again, I want you to tell me personally."
"I don't want to hear from others what you've done for me. I prefer to hear it from your own mouth."
Her tone was soft and carried a hint of coquetry, but it was exceptionally sincere.
And indeed, it was her heartfelt words.
Just imagine, if a wife can only find out what her husband has said or done for her through others.
Isn't this a rather failed affair?
She knew that this was Huo Shao Ting's way of expressing love for her, so she accepted it.
Huo Shao Ting understood what she meant, but he was afraid that his wife would dislike him for spending too much money, so he didn't tell her.
But she cared so much about it.
"I'll follow your lead."
Huo Shao Ting kissed her forehead and held her in his arms.
Even if they did nothing, just embracing each other quietly like this, he felt content.
Then he made a phone call to his assistant, while Rong Dai continued to browse the web pages on her laptop.
