Chapter 361 - Work Hard To Make More Money
After dinner, everyone went back to their room to rest. Song Xing Xing watched as Lu Xun entered the room with Mr. Fluffball following him closer. She watched as the fat cat climbed up the bed and asked, "Is there something wrong with the way I look?"
Lu Xun walked closer and gave her a lookover. He pecked at the corner of her lips and said, "You look pretty as always." He watched the shade of pink crept to her ears and smiled "Why are you asking me this?"
Song Xing Xing tilted her head to one side. "Did you notice that your parents has been giving me a strange look earlier?"
Lu Xun tried to recall dinner with his parents earlier today. However, he did not notice anything wrong with it.
"They were probably too happy that they finally had a daughter-in-law," Lu Xun said and smiled. "My parents have been worried about my marriage for a long time. You know that they wouldn't be at ease until we are married. Now that we finally had our certificate, they can finally stop worrying. Perhaps, they viewed you as a savior."
Song Xing Xing laughed. She knew that her parents-in-law were always worrying about Lu Xun. However, she had never thought that it would be to this extend.
Her initial worry about how her parents-in-law had been looking at her had quickly disappeared. Song Xing Xing raised her hand and poked at his hard chest. "President Lu, it seemed that I won't be able to return to the studio this week. I'm here to request a few days off."
He caught her finger and played with her hand, measuring her small hand against his. "What are you up to?"
"Mom asked me to accompany her to shop," Song Xing Xing said. "She said, we should look at a few things for the wedding. They are going to return to C Country and Dad might have to travel for work again."
Small creases appeared between his brow "Will you be alright?"
Lu Xun knew his mother well. Once she visited the mall, she won't stop until they have walked to the whole building. No one in the family could stand accompanying her shopping.
The last time they visited C Country, Song Xing Xing had experienced his mother's energy as she accompanied her to shop. The two went out in the morning and only returned home when it was almost dark.
If they did not run into Shi An Na, perhaps, Zhen Wen Yu would be in a good mood and continue to shop around.
"I'll be fine. Later, it will be difficult to spend my time with Mom. I should let her be assured that I will look after her son properly."
Lu Xun chuckled. He was very sure that his mother did not mind whether Song Xing Xing would be able to look after him properly. The most important thing was that whether he would be able to look after her daughter-in-law properly.
Lu Xun had long realized that his position in the family had gone down. In his mother's eyes, his rank was probably lower than Professor Jia.
A thought came to his mind and Lu Xun turned around, heading to the wardrobe. When he appeared by his wife's side again, there was a black card in his hand.
"Since you're going out with my mother, you should take this. Just spent how much you want."
Song Xing Xing eyed the card and was about to decline when he spoke again.
"Don't decline this time. You are already my wife. It's not wrong for you to spend my money."
Song Xing Xing hesitated. In the early days when they were dating, Lu Xun had wanted to let her hold on to his card but she had rejected it.
She thought that it doesn't feel right to hold on to his card when they were only dating. She was taught from her younger days that she shouldn't take advantage of people. This was what her grandfather had taught everyone in the family.
As someone from a reputable family, her family's discipline and teaching were a little tough. Song Xing Xing and her cousins grew up with their grandfather's teaching in their minds.
Moreover... even though she can be a little cheapskate, she was someone with a lot of money in her bank account. If she wanted to buy something, she could use her money.
But now, her status had indeed changed. She was now his wife and she shouldn't feel guilty spending his money.
"You don't need to help me save money. Just use it to buy anything that you like. I'll work hard to make more money for you to spend."
Previously, Lu Xun had invested his money everywhere just to get rid of them. However, he gained a lot of money instead. He built NEXT Group and had several businesses under this company. But still, he had continued to spend his money recklessly in hope that he would lose them.
However, he could now find the reason to work hard and make money. This time when he invested his money, it would not be because he was trying to lose them.
At the thought that he should work hard for his wife and their future kids, Lu Xun was suddenly in a good spirit.
A mischievous smile curled on her lips. "Then, can I buy game credits?"
Lu Xun laughed. "Un. Go ahead."
The smile on her face quickly faded. She had wanted to tease him a little bit but this man was too cooperative. Shouldn't he advise her not to spend money on something wasteful?
Is he not worried that she was going to make him go bankrupt?
Song Xing Xing stared at the card in her hand with a complicated expression. But in the end, her grip tightened around the card.
Seeing that she had accepted his card, Lu Xun finally breathed in relief. However, the girl's next move made him stunned.
Song Xing Xing stood on tiptoed and pecked on his cheek. "Thank you, hubby."
Lu Xun smiled when the girl kissed him on the cheek. However, the word she said had made him froze. It took him a few seconds to realize the name she had called him. "What did you call me?"
Song Xing Xing looked at him in puzzlement. When she realized what had made him react this way, the corner of her lips tilted into a teasing smile. Song Xing Xing leaned over and whispered, "Hubby."
Her voice was coquettish and her breath was tickling his ear. In just a few seconds, his eyes darkened. "Call me again. Hmm?" He caught the person into his arm, wanting to kiss her when she stopped him by putting a finger on his lips.
"What are you doing?" Song Xing Xing frowned. "Mr. Fluffball is still here."
His eyes shifted towards the fat cat on their bed.
Mr. Fluffball was sleeping on the bed when his Papa suddenly carried him. When he realized what was going on, his Papa had already put him outside the door.
"Meow?"
What is going on?
