Chapter 467: Shopaholic
Xu Guanwu accompanied Lin Qingxia to stay in Taiwan for a total of four days, and after the reluctance of the Lin family, he returned to Hong Kong on the Air King 200 again.
It's not that they don't want to stay longer, it's that there are still a lot of things to be handled in Hong Kong. To a top rich man like Xu Guanwu, there are countless invitations during the Spring Festival every year.
While some meetings can be dismissed, others are obligatory. For example, HSBC's annual Spring Festival party, such as the dinner held by partners Li Zhaoji, Li Ka-shing, Hu Yingxiang, etc., and the annual Hong Kong local gentry gathering of the Hong Kong Governor's Office, as well as invitations from other chambers of commerce, etc.
These gatherings are a good occasion to expand contacts, connect feelings, and communicate with each other, and you can't participate in them without a certain net worth. Xu Guanwu did not have this kind of treatment at the beginning, but in recent years, with the rapid expansion of his assets, it has attracted the attention of Hong Kong's local wealthy businessmen, and has also made him one of the hottest figures in the current gathering.
Flying on the King Air 200, almost just a dozen naps, the plane has already flown back to Hong Kong from Taipei. Xu Guanwu then took Lin Qingxia back to the mansion in the middle of Taiping Mountain, and then took the car back to his home in Kowloon Bay.
When Zhao Yazhi saw him come back, she stood up very happily at first, with a bright smile on her face. But then his mouth flattened, and he immediately turned his head away, ignoring him.
Xu Guanwu knew that she must be angry that she had accompanied Lin Qingxia to Taipei for so long, so she couldn't help but smile and took out a long box from her arms.
"Ah Zhi, what's the matter, are you angry?" Xu Guanwu approached Zhao Yazhi and said, "Don't be angry, look at what gift I bought for you from Taipei?" ”
"Humph! Who's angry?! Zhao Yazhi snorted. What kind of gifts, I'm not rare, take it, take it! ”
"Isn't that uncommon?! I've been picking this for a long time, and I've chosen it for you. Xu Guanwu hurriedly smiled and said, "Even if you don't like it anymore, take a look at it, okay?" ”
When Zhao Yazhi heard him say this, she couldn't help but turn her head, "Did you really buy it for me?" She asked, her eyes wide open.
"Absolutely not lying to you. I've been picking it for a long time. Come, open it and take a look, full of dissatisfaction. Xu Guanwu said and sent the long box to Zhao Yazhi.
Zhao Yazhi took the long box suspiciously, and saw that it was a box carved from red coral, warm as jade. Bright red like blood, it gives people a very delicate feeling at first glance.
Wait for her to gently open the box. See a pearl necklace. Lying quietly in the box, emitting a moonlit glow. In this chain, each pearl is the size of a finger's belly, the pearl is round and jade, the color is fair, and it is very beautiful.
"Wow!" Zhao Yazhi couldn't take her eyes off when she saw it. I couldn't help but sigh with surprise and joy.
"Let me bring it for you, okay?" Xu Guanwu asked with a smile.
Zhao Yazhi nodded hurriedly, and then closed her eyes, from her eyelashes that kept twitching. You can see how happy she is now.
Xu Guanwu then gently took out the pearl necklace from the box, and then carefully put it on his wife Zhao Yazhi's neck. "Okay, let's see if the drift is beautiful?" Xu Guanwu said with a smile.
Zhao Yazhi immediately opened her eyes, then leaned in front of the mirror and carefully looked at herself in the mirror. I saw that the beauty in the mirror was beautiful and fragrant, tender and fair, and with this slightly shining pearl necklace, the whole person was covered with a layer of faint light, and it became more and more graceful and elegant.
The more Zhao Yazhi looked at it, the more she loved it, and she couldn't help fiddling with the mirror a few times, and then she suddenly sank her face again, and asked Xu Guanwu to hurry over, "What's the matter, the necklace doesn't look good?" Then I'll go back and help you with other jewelry. ”
"Hmph, tell me, is this necklace only owned by me, or does even Qingxia have the same one?" Zhao Yazhi snorted angrily.
"Of course, it's just you, and I chose this necklace for you. I can't say if there is a second rule in the world, but you are the only one in our family. Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "How about it, like it or not?" ”
Zhao Yazhi heard her husband say this, and thought that such a beautiful necklace was just owned by herself, so she couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, "I like it, Xie Lu Xie husband." ”
"You're welcome, as long as you like it, wife." Xu Guanwu kissed Zhao Yazhi lightly and said, "By the way, in the past few days since I went to Taipei, is there anything going on at home?" ”
"It's not a big deal, it's just that the posts inviting you to the banquet have been saved a foot thick." Zhao Yazhi waved her hand and said, "Husband, why did you stay so long when you went to Taipei this time." I don't know how much people miss you. ”
"I miss you too, every day and every night." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "But Qingxia hasn't been home for a long time, so naturally she has to stay longer." Besides, I also have a few business to discuss in Taipei, so I delayed some time. ”
"Humph! I stayed with her back to her parents' house for four days, and I was so reluctant to accompany others back to my parents' house. I hate you to death. Zhao Yazhi pouted.
"Don't be angry, it's me who is bad. Next Chinese New Year, I'll stay at home with you for a few days, okay? Xu Guanwu saw that his wife was jealous again, and hurriedly said with a smile.
"That's pretty much it." When Zhao Yazhi heard him say this, she couldn't help but burst into tears and laughed, "By the way, my husband invited you to the banquet so many posts, you really plan to refuse?" ”
"Yes, except for the ones that have always been frequented, the others have been refused." Xu Guanwu nodded and said, "Otherwise, even if I am iron-clad, I wouldn't be able to run through so many parties." ”
"As for the female companion, do you still want me to accompany you this year, or do you plan to take Qingxia out of the city as well?" Zhao Yazhi glanced at Xu Guanwu and asked abruptly.
"Uh......" Xu Guanwu couldn't help but be stunned, and then shook his head, "Qingxia should not accompany me to important occasions for the time being, otherwise those newspapers and magazines gossip news will have news to write about." In my opinion, wait a little longer, and when people gradually forget about it, then slowly do it from small occasions to give everyone a time to adapt. It feels a little bit better that way. ”
"Well, if you want me to accompany you, then I'll have to add a few more clothes." Zhao Yazhi heard her husband say this, and couldn't help but say happily.
Accompany your husband to parties for important occasions. In fact, just like the ancient emperor's sacrifice to the sky, it is a means of declaring identity. Even Adou Liu Chan, who couldn't help him, knew that the military affairs of the Dao could be handed over to Zhuge Liang to deal with, but he had to do this kind of thing by himself, just to ensure his identity as the Son of Heaven.
Zhao Yazhi was originally worried that her husband would take advantage of the Chinese New Year to officially bring Lin Qingxia to everyone, so that their relationship would be made public from now on. But now it seems obvious that my husband also has scruples and does not plan to make the relationship public so early. Whether his decision is based on loving Lin Qingxia or caring for the influence of public opinion, in short, her status in the main room seems to be very stable at present.
Although Zhao Yazhi has reconciled with Lin Qingxia, she privately admitted her existence. But it doesn't mean that she won't be jealous and won't compete with Lin Qingxia anymore. In fact, once the relationship becomes clear, the competition will be more intense. Zhao Yazhi could deceive herself before, when Lin Qingxia did not exist, so she could be an ostrich who escaped. Dig your head in the sand. But now that she has been acknowledged, she will naturally no longer run away from it. She will officially see Lin Qingxia as her opponent. And that's where the battle began.
"Buying clothes again? If you donate those clothes, it will be enough for one person to wear for ten lifetimes. Xu Guanwu pouted and said, "Wife, we have money, but we can't be so extravagant." I see that many of your clothes in the closet are after they were bought. He threw it in and never wore it. ”
"Heck, when you buy clothes, you have to pay attention to your mood, and when you wear clothes, you have to take care of the occasion." Zhao Yazhi waved her hand and said, "That person naturally bought the clothes when they saw the beautiful clothes." But there is no suitable occasion to wear it. That's why I kept throwing it in the closet. That's good, this time people promise you, I will definitely wear the clothes I bought this time, and I won't waste them. ”
"You have to do what you say." Xu Guanwu glanced at her angrily, and suddenly said with a smile, "By the way, Ah Zhi might as well be like this, you go back and clean up the clothes in the closet, those clothes that are really not used are better donated to the clothing department of TVB." ”
"Donate to the TV station's costume department?! Come on, my clothes are all famous brands, and a piece costs at least a few thousand yuan, so it's too wasteful to donate them like this. When Zhao Yazhi heard that her husband wanted to donate clothes by herself, she couldn't help jumping up and said.
"Is it more wasteful than throwing it in the closet and not wearing it once, slowly getting old and slowly becoming obsolete?" Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "Anyway, you won't be able to wear those clothes for ten lifetimes, plus you still occupy so much wardrobe, so you have nowhere to hang your new clothes." It's better to take advantage of the moment and donate the clothes you don't wear. It just so happened that the costume department of the TV station also wanted to purchase some props and costumes, and it happened that your clothes were quite good-looking, so I gave them them. This way the company can also save a lot of money, and you can also have a wardrobe to use. ”
"Okay, but the old clothes are donated, and when I buy new clothes in the future, you are not allowed to nag anymore." When Zhao Yazhi heard him say this, she couldn't help but widen her eyes and said.
"As long as you don't buy clothes in the future and don't spend so much on them, I promise not to be wordy anymore. Do you think I like to talk to you? Xu Guanwu raised his right hand and swore.
When Zhao Yazhi heard him say this, she couldn't help but stick out her tongue at him.
……
In the afternoon, Xu Guanwu and Zhao Yazhi sorted out the clothes in her wardrobes. If you don't tidy up, you don't know what to do, and you'll be shocked when you tidy it up.
In the past few years, Zhao Yazhi has purchased thousands of sets of clothing, and she has all kinds of brand-name new styles in spring, summer, autumn and winter. There are also special editions, commemorative editions, limited editions, and more. In addition to clothing, shoes, bags, sunglasses, etc., have also accumulated a lot. When you put it all out, it is almost more than the stock of a brand-name store.
"How did I buy so many clothes in the past few years?" After sorting out all her clothes, Zhao Yazhi was also very surprised.
"Of course, every spring, summer, autumn and winter, major brands will send their own lists of new products, and every time you see it, your eyes light up, and you have to buy a dozen pieces at a time. Major brands, four times a year, accumulate over time, and naturally accumulate a lot. And in addition to these, you usually like to go shopping, and you can't forget about big purchases when you accompany me abroad. Over time, you've really become a brand-name store. Xu Guanwu couldn't help but vomit.
When Zhao Yazhi heard her husband say this, she couldn't help blushing slightly, "That person just can't walk when he sees beautiful clothes, so I can't wait to buy them all home." ”
"So this is the disease, the disease of the shopaholic, it has to be cured. Otherwise, in the future, the baby in the womb will inherit your temper, and in the future, if you spend a lot of money, then my family property will not be lost by him? Xu Guanwu couldn't help but sigh.
"Okay, okay, I can't change it." Zhao Yazhi hurriedly said, "I hate it, I know that I use the baby to scare me." (To be continued......)
