The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

After applying the makeup, she stood up and said, “1 need to use the bathroom.”

With that, she headed to the bathroom and closed the door behind her.

Dongfang Yu couldn’t help but sneer. What did she mean by that?

The way she acted was as if he was someone incredibly distasteful.

However, recently, it did seem as if Hai Xiaotang really despised him.

His eyes darkened, he truly couldn’t understand why she would suddenly change her attitude like this.

Could it be that she assumed he had a thing going with Lin Xinxin and thus, she gave up on him?

Giving up over a mere suspicion doesn’t seem to be her style.

Yet, he couldn’t come up with any reason to explain her unusual behavior.

Dongfang Yu was puzzled when a knock echoed from the office door.

“Come in,” he said lightly.

The door swung open, Lin Xinxin, panting heavily, walked in from outside holding a bag.

She was sweating profusely from her forehead, obviously she had rushed back, which would explain her exhaustion.

Upon seeing Dongfang Yu, she smiled breathlessly, “President, I’ve brought back the wife’s dress. Fearing that the size might not fit, 1 bought three different sizes. Where is Madam?”

Dongfang Yu glanced at her without answering, “Put them down. Go see Ji Chuan. He’ll pay you.”

“No need for that, it didn’t cost much…”

“No matter the amount, as a boss, 1 should not owe my employees.”

A hint of disappointment flashed through Lin Xinxin’s eyes. To him, was she just an employee?

She nodded after placing down the dresses, “Alright, I understand. I’ll leave now.”

“Mhm, thank you for your hard work.” Dongfang nodded slightly.

Lin Xinxin’s face brightened instantly, “No worries, this is what I should be doing!”

“Alright, go rest.”

“Yes.” Just to receive a bit of his concern, Lin Xinxin felt extremely delighted.

Just as she was about to leave smiling, the humming of the dryer suddenly came from the bathroom.

Lin Xinxin glanced at the bathroom door and then exited the room.

However, after quite some time, the humming didn’t stop.

Dongfang Yu, growing impatient, stood up and walked over to knock on the door.

The sound of the dryer ceased, and Hai Xiaotang asked from inside, “What’s up?”

“What are you doing?” The man’s voice was low and authoritarian.

“Drying my clothes.”

Hai Xiaotang had washed her dress in the bathroom earlier and was now drying it to wear again.

“The new clothes have been bought. Come out and change into it.”

“No need, my dress will be dry soon enough,” Hai Xiaotang replied indifferently, resuming her drying.

Dongfang Yu knocked again, “The dresses are here. Hurry up and change.”

“I said, there’s no need. It will be dry soon.”

Hai Xiaotang was stubborn, and Dongfang Yu didn’t say anything more.

After a short while, the bathroom door finally opened. Hai Xiaotang emerged from it. The man sitting on the sofa looked over at her expressionlessly, only to see her dress was now clean.

But the washed area was slightly wrinkled, with a hint of coffee stains still visible if one looked carefully.

Hai Xiaotang looked at him and said, “The lunch box fell over. Order something yourself. I’m heading back first.”

However, Dongfang Yu directly threw the bag at her. Hai Xiaotang caught it unconsciously.

“Go change!” he ordered in a firm voice.

Hai Xiaotang glanced at the dresses in the bag, seeing three skirts, all of them high-end branded white skirts,

She tossed the bag back and said lightly, “My dress is already clean, there’s no need to change, and I’m about to head back..”
