A debris of the ground, full of devastation.

Several clerks who rushed over when they heard the sound were stunned when they saw this scene.

Shi Chuxi's face was pale, and he was also frightened, staring blankly at the broken pottery shards all over the ground, and muttered, "I'm sorry...... I didn't mean to. ”

In the corner of his eye, he didn't wrestle, and his figure stabilized in time when he touched the shelf.

But in front of so many people, it was she who pushed him to cause this embarrassment, and she didn't dare to look at him at this time.

Even if he was angry, she had nothing to say.

"It's not intentional? It's over if it's not intentional, do you know that these are ordered by many big customers, do you know how much these are worth when they add up? Even if you are sold, you can't afford to lose it, you know?" A square-faced female clerk looked Shi Chuxi up and down disdainfully, dressed in cheap clothes, and dared to come to visit the Silver Trade Department Store.

"Huh—" A soft thud came from the man's lips.

Everyone's eyes looked at the voice, Bo Yun lowered his eyes cautiously, slowly arranging the metal buttons on his shirt in his hands, his tone was steady, and he was wrapped in a smile, but it inexplicably made people feel frightened: "Call your store manager over." ”

Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to move for a while.

The female clerk who was still arrogant at the beginning of the day was too frightened to speak after seeing the man standing in the corner, not to mention that he was covered with famous brands, even the innate powerful aura exuded from him was intimidating enough, and he was not a master to be messed with at first glance.

"What's wrong?" The girl who greeted them earlier finally heard the movement and came out of it, and was stunned for a long time after seeing the debris all over the ground, and quickly reacted, showing a professional smile: "This gentleman, I'm the manager of this store, I'm sorry, what just happened?"

"That's the ......" Shi Chuxi, in order to avoid contradictions, first briefly explained the story, and then said: "Store manager, how much do these things cost." You do the math, and I will compensate you at the original price. ”

The girl looked embarrassed: "These are all booked by customers, and they will come to pick up the goods in the next two days, because our processing fees are expensive, so we have signed a contract with the customer in advance, if it is overdue, we have to compensate for the overdue fee, there are dozens of pairs of pottery dolls here, it is really ......"

Shi Chuxi knew what the other party meant, and interrupted: "I know, I'm really sorry for causing you trouble." All late fees are at my expense. ”

The girl nodded and said, "Okay, you wait a minute, I'll do the math." ”

Things can finally be resolved.

Shi Chuxi breathed a sigh of relief, followed the girl to the cash register, his heart was dripping blood, and he didn't know if the bank card given by Mr. Jin was enough, what if it was not enough?

It's really unlucky today, I caused such a big trouble for no reason.

She was wrinkling her brows in distress, and with a tightening of her wrists, she was suddenly pulled in front of the man, who stared at her condescendingly.

He didn't speak, and she knew what he meant. Pulling up his pink lips and apologizing cautiously: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect to make things like this, did you hit some......where?"

The word "courtyard" was blocked by the sudden thin lips, and her eyes widened, she didn't expect him to suddenly kiss her in such a place and at such a time.

It was a kiss that was just a taste, and he didn't take advantage of her anymore and quickly let her go.

There was still his breath and temperature on her lips, like countless electric currents spreading to her limbs, and she blinked, too surprised, causing herself to be as if she had been pointed, unable to move for a while.

The man had already taken a long step, walked to the corner and made a phone call, said something, and closed the line in the next second.

At the cash register, the girl was shouting at the beginning of the day.

Shi Chuxi came back to his senses and hurriedly walked over.

The girl had already calculated the numbers: "Three hundred and seventy-eight hundred." ”

Shi Chuxi had no expression on his face, but he shivered in his heart, took a deep breath, lowered his head and took out the bank card from the compartment of the bag.

She thought about the password, since it was given to her by Mr. Jin, it must be a number she is familiar with, so it should be her birthday.

The girl held the POS machine in one hand, and came over to take the bank card in the other hand to swipe the card, at this moment, a black card was handed over, and the man's warm voice said: "Swipe mine." ”

It's not loud, but it's powerful.

Shi Chuxi wanted to say something, but after meeting the man's bottomless gaze, he hurriedly closed his voice, but the bank card was still in the palm of his hand, and he lowered his voice and said: "You don't have to do this, I did it, and I will bear the consequences." ”

He pursed his thin lips lightly, leaned closer to her, and whispered with thin lips: "It is only natural for a husband to protect his wife. ”

A few simple words struck somewhere in her heart at once, and she was suddenly speechless.

"Sir, your credit card. The girl's voice trembled a little, pinching the black card with both hands, and handed it over respectfully, her heart was both excited and nervous, this is the famous centurion black gold card, not to mention the more than 300,000 yuan, even if it is a plane with hundreds of millions of dollars, it is just a blink of an eye.

Bo Yunshen casually put the credit card in his wallet, but his gaze behind the lens passed silently from the card in Shi Chuxi's hand.

Shi Chuxi didn't realize it, put the bank card back in the bag, his eyebrows were locked, and he seemed to be preoccupied.

Whether it was swiping his card or Mr. Jin's card, it was not what she wanted to see.

More than 300,000 ah, just like that, it's all gone.

With her current salary, even if she doesn't eat or drink, she may not be able to afford to work for ten years.

But, no matter what, she has to find a way to pay him back with so much money, otherwise she will always feel indebted to him.

She has grown up since she was a child, and she is most afraid of owing others something, especially favors. She had to do everything she could to pay it back, or she wouldn't even be able to sleep.

The matter was settled here, Bo Yunshen put his hands in his pockets, and he had no intention of leaving.

The girl smiled and reminded: "Sir, it will take a few days to make the pottery puppet you ordered, please go back and wait patiently, I will call you as soon as it is ready." ”

Bo Yunshen glanced at the girl, but this time she suddenly felt cold all over her body, the girl swallowed her saliva, and she was sincerely afraid to think that she didn't say the wrong thing.

"It's getting late, let's go. Shi Chuxi didn't understand what was wrong with him, did he want to settle accounts with her and show her face?

Thinking of this, she lowered her head and took a few steps closer to him, gently tugged at his sleeve, and whispered: "It's me who is wrong today, I will pay you back the money, let's leave first, and then we will talk about it later, okay?"

Bo Yunshen put her hands in the pockets of her suit pants, her eyes fixed on a certain place, and she and the girl followed his line of sight, and several clerks were cleaning up the pieces.

After all, the girl was the store manager, and she saw something at once, "Sir, what else do you have to order?"

Bo Yunshen's chin tightened, and with a big hand, he suddenly took Shi Chuxi into his arms, and his voice was as cold as a knife: "She, come and apologize to my wife." ”

Silent.

The face of the square female clerk who was named disappeared in an instant.

Most of today's young people are only children, they are used to being spoiled from a young family, and they have a good face, even if they are an ordinary clerk, they all have strong self-esteem in their hearts, and now that they are named, she feels hot on her face for a while. Extremely embarrassed, he closed his lips tightly and refused to apologize.

"Forget it. Seeing that the atmosphere was frozen here, Shi Chuxi raised his head and gently pushed his chest, "Let's go." ”

Bo Yunshen's figure did not move, and his handsome face sank.

For a while, no one dared to speak.

The female clerk's eyes widened, she didn't expect them to settle accounts afterwards, she suddenly breathed rapidly, embarrassed, ashamed, and unwilling to be angry, threw the broom in her hand and said angrily: "I'm not wrong, she wears so cheap all over her body, even a beggar, why do you want me to apologize." It's a big deal that I quit doing it, I want to bully me, let me say something to apologize, dream!"

"Xiao Zhao ......" The store manager was anxious, and stepped forward to persuade him well: "It's your fault for this, you should apologize." ”

The female clerk puffed up her chest proudly: "Store manager, are you deaf? I won't do it! You don't have the right to care about me now, you can do whatever I want!"

"You ......" The store manager was angry, but he couldn't do anything with her for a while.

"Okay, are you going to resign?" the man slowly and gently glared at the female clerk, with a shallow arc on his lips, "Of course you can resign, but you have to think about what the consequences are, otherwise, when you quit from this job, I promise, this will be the last job in your life." ”

If you take a closer look at this passage, smart people will know how powerful it is.

The female clerk didn't hear it at all, kicked the fragments under her feet, untied her apron and was about to leave, but the store manager grabbed her and whispered something in her ear, and the female clerk froze immediately.

The body trembled so much that it calmed down after a while, and even wanted to pull out a flattering smile, but it didn't work, and the muscles of the whole face trembled: "I'm sorry, sir, I was wrong, I apologize to you." ”

"The person you want to apologize for is my wife. ”

"Yes, yes. The female clerk nodded, and turned to Shi Chuxi with a bitter face: "This lady, I look down on people with dog eyes, I am not human." I shouldn't have said that about you, you adults don't talk about villains, just let me go this time. ”

Shi Chuxi nodded and accepted the apology.

The arm resting on her waist tightened instantly, and the voice spit out from Bo Yunshen's thin lips was not loud, but it was extremely cold: "Who said she was cheap, um? My wife is priceless in my eyes, I don't want to hear any insults to her in the future, otherwise, I will let you know what life is better than death." ”

In a gasp of breath, he strode away with her in his arms.

Shi Chuxi followed him into the elevator, and then went all the way to the first floor. Finally sat in the car and slowly came back to her senses, and what greeted her was a calm and calm face as usual, but a few minutes ago, she saw him stand up for her, and heard him protect her so much, desperate, and even cruel.

It's not like his style to deal with a small clerk.

To put it another way, it's not necessary.

Even if the female clerk really humiliated her, she didn't pay much attention to it.

In the words of Chicken Soup for the Soul, if one or two people out of a hundred hate you, why should you care so much about those one or two. And what about the ninety-eight people who ignored you?

All we care about is the people we care about.

But...... He did that today, and with his experience and vision, he shouldn't have deliberately stopped and forced a clerk to apologize to her.

Unless......

Her heart was hot, and she bit her lip and quietly glanced at the man next to her, unless, in his heart, he couldn't see her being bullied, not because she was his legal wife, but because she was the person he cared about very much in his heart.

Thinking of this, she turned her head to look out the window, and suddenly did not dare to look at him.

……

Back to the villa. The clock pointed to eight o'clock, it was already past dinner time, and both of them were a little hungry.

In order to show something, Shi Chuxi took the initiative to walk into the kitchen.

When she opened the three-door refrigerator, there were all the ingredients in it, but unfortunately there was no meal that could be heated and eaten, and she stared at the food full of refrigerators in embarrassment, not knowing what to do.

Moving her steps slightly, she wanted to see what he was doing, but when she turned around, she saw the man standing behind her, and was startled: "Why don't you make a sound when you walk?"

He raised an eyebrow. "It's because you're too focused, what's the matter, have you figured out what to do for me to eat?"

Listening to what he meant, it was as if he wanted her to cook.

"That ......" Shi Chuxi licked his lips, it was estimated that he could see that she was not good at cooking, so he simply said cheekily: "I won't do it, aren't you doing it very well?"

He shrugged his shoulders and said, "But I'm tired today, you have eaten so many meals from me, and today I am angry for you again, and I also helped you lose the money, you cook a meal for me." Isn't it normal to make amends?"

She touched her nose: "But I really can't do it, I just dig up rice, add some water, and put it in the rice cooker to cook a porridge." And the porridge I made is really not delicious, I didn't lie to you. ”

He pulled the corners of his lips and smiled faintly: "Really, I'm not too picky about food, as long as I can eat it." ”

So, is he insisting on eating her cooking today?

Yes.

Shi Chuxi didn't have a rut, gritted his teeth, rolled up his sleeves and went to the sink to wash his hands: "Then you go out to rest, I'll call you when the porridge is cooked." ”

Bo Yunshen glanced at her and really went out.

About half an hour, Shi Chuxi walked out of the kitchen. The man leaned back on the couch and was watching the news on TV.

"The porridge is ready, you can come and eat. She whispered, and went into the kitchen.

……

When she came out with a tray, Bo Yunshen was already sitting on a chair at the dining table, and when she put a bowl of porridge in front of him, he narrowed his eyes, "You cooked this?"

"That's right. Without thinking, she pulled out a chair and sat down: "It's like a fake." ”

Bo Yunshen's brows furrowed even tighter, the bowl of porridge in front of him could not be called porridge at all, in his impression, the so-called porridge should at least be viscous and have a rice fragrance, but what is this bowl in front of him. Let's not talk about the lack of water in the clear soup, why doesn't the rice grains seem to have boiled yet......

The man's chest rose and fell, as if he was enduring something, and on the other side, Shi Chuxi scooped a spoonful of porridge with a spoon and was about to send it to his mouth, when suddenly the spoon flew away along with the bowl.

She was already hungry, and for no reason she watched the food being taken away by him, and finally went into the trash can, and said sadly: "Good porridge, what did you pour it for? ”

He only glanced at her: "This is pig food." ”

What pig food?

She glared at him angrily: "Hey, I did it for more than half an hour, is it necessary for you to humiliate people so much?"

"Hmm. I did say it wrong, it's not pig food. He methodically took the ingredients out of the refrigerator, and the next moment he narrated word by word: "Because it's not even as good as pig food." ”

"You ......" Shi Chuxi rolled her eyes angrily, why didn't she think this man had a poisonous tongue before, and his speech was too ugly, if it weren't for his sake of defending her everywhere today, she would have to rush up and beat him twice.

The footsteps gradually faded away, and the man chopping vegetables at the cooking table turned his head sideways, and even the back of the little girl was full of breath, which was really cute.

Today, after the farce in the Silver Trade Department Store, the relationship between the two seems to be invisibly closer.

Thin lips hooked silently, he lowered his head and continued to chop vegetables, all the complex and indistinguishable emotions hidden in the bottomless eyes behind the lenses.

Shi Chuxi leaned on the sofa while watching TV and waiting for dinner, and he didn't know how he fell asleep, but he only felt a burning sight fall on him, from top to bottom, this line of sight was like radar, and like a fire, lighting everywhere he went.

She shook her head and woke up in an instant.

When she opened her eyes, she saw a magnified handsome face, she was confused, and asked slowly, "Why are you so close to me?"

Bo Yun picked her lower lip and bent down a few points closer to her. The long finger pinched her chin: "The meal is ready, I have called you many times, but you just won't wake up." ”

His thin lips were slightly open, and she kept the posture of speaking in the last note, and she twisted her face and coughed twice, she always had a kind of thing that he wanted to say next, 'If you don't wake up, I'll kiss you up'?

Unable to think any more, she secretly clenched her fists, jumped off the other end of the sofa, and said, "I'll wash my face." ”

When she came out after washing her face, there were already dishes on the table, each of which looked so appetizing.

Shi Chuxi's stomach growled. When I sat down, I found that there were only vegetables, no rice, and no chopsticks.

She looked at him strangely, but saw him looking at her with a smile: "What, I cooked, and you still want me to serve you food?"

What, don't you just want her to serve rice and hold chopsticks, so that she can use it like this?

A profiteer is a profiteer!

Shi Chuxi smirked, got up and went to the kitchen to get two bowls, and then brought two bowls of rice each.

Finally, it's time to eat.

She picked up her chopsticks. sighed lightly, it was not easy to eat a meal he cooked, fortunately, Auntie was coming tomorrow, so there was no need to look at his face.

Opposite, the man's dark gaze swept over her expressive face, as if reading her mental activity, and he curled his lips and ate the belated dinner without revealing a face.

……

Twenty minutes later, Shi Chuxi took the initiative to wash the dishes without his instructions, anyway, according to his words and deeds before the meal, she could guess it. Even if she doesn't take the initiative, the job of washing dishes will still fall to her in the end.

Well, in all fairness, his cooking skills are really good, Shi Chuxi smacked his lips, and there was a feeling that he still wanted to eat next time.

It's been a long time since she's sat down at the dinner table at home like tonight.

When something happened to the Shi family, she was busy surviving, running around every day, eating the most white steamed buns, at most cooking some porridge by herself, just like the kind he had just poured out.

It's not that she doesn't want to learn, it's that she doesn't get along with the kitchen, once she learned to cook, and almost didn't light the kitchen, and since then she knows that she is insulated from the kitchen in this life, and she simply doesn't force it. In this life, who doesn't have a shortcoming, normal!

Thinking of the kitchen, she washed the dishes, as if she remembered the cake with pebbles added by her, did he eat that cake back then?

The question swirled over and over in her head, so much so that before she knew it, she had washed all the dishes and chopsticks.

Wipe the water on her hands and go out, Bo Yunshen is no longer outside, she should either go to the study or go back to the room, she looked up at the villa where she saw the lights, shook her head and sighed, and went upstairs to her bedroom.

That night, she began to dream again, but not before, she dreamed of the scene of the handicraft shop during the day, just like watching a movie, every fragment was dreamed completely.

Especially the last sentence he said to the clerk: "Who said she was cheap, well? My wife is priceless in my eyes." I don't want to hear any more insults to her in the future, or I'll let you know what life is better than death. ”

When she woke up in the morning, this sentence and his eyes at the time replayed it in her mind over and over again, she knocked her head desperately, no, don't think about it, don't think about it, maybe he is used to it, he just treats her as a property, and he doesn't really want to defend her as a person, in case it is another woman who marries him. Maybe he'd do the same to that woman.

Yes, don't think about it anymore, otherwise she will always be under one roof in the future, how will she face him, even if he has a good impression of her back then, it was many years ago, who is not young when he is young, it is not love at all.

At the moment, she should learn how to be a good Mrs. Bo, although Bo Anying's banquet was canceled last night, but it was only rescheduled, and she would still come, and then she had to spend time picking a suitable gift, and also review her previous social etiquette in the social circle, and she couldn't lose face on the day of her debut at the banquet.

After doing a good job in this psychological construction, Shi Chuxi calmed down, lifted the quilt and got out of bed to wash.

I went downstairs at about the same time as usual, and breakfast was sitting quietly on the table, steaming.

A middle-aged woman is busy in the kitchen, the sun is shining on most of the dining room, and the smell of flowers wafts in the air, it is a new morning and a beautiful start to the day.

She sat down at the table, and though she didn't pay attention to the other person's whereabouts, she began to pay serious respects to her internal organs.

After breakfast, she nodded to her aunt, expressed her gratitude, and took the bag out of the villa.
