Chapter 1964 One And Only For A Lifetime
Hou Zi, who had now turned into a good house-husband, sat on his sofa with his apron; he picked up the phone and said, “That Miss Ye of yours isn’t a simple person, you guys could ask for some pointers from her when you have time.”
“Get the car ready; once you see her, immediately take her away; also, make sure to clean up the scene and don’t leave any evidence.” Since he had promised to help, naturally, he’ll have to do things properly, leaving evidence behind so that others could find had never been Hou Zi’s way of doing things.
The doorbell rang; Hou Zi immediately got up, “I’m hanging up, contact me when anything happens.” Not waiting for his assistant to speak, while he swiftly hung up, he had already taken a few steps.
Wearing a navy blue coat, Xia Yiwei walked over in the cold; before she managed to change shoes, she was held up by Hou Zi’s arms as he walked towards the living room with the heater on, “You’re also working quite hard, how many days have you been working O.T.s? Making your husband stay at home alone every day, so cruel.”
Third Master Hou who was awe-inspiring and could shake the entire Yunnan province by himself in public had turned into a husband that embodied the twenty-four paragons of filial piety at home, for successful men such as him, their wives should be the one who was afraid of them cheating, but in Hou Zi’s case, it was the complete opposite, he was the one who was afraid that this cruel-hearted woman in his embrace would abandon him once again.
Xia Yiwei lazily leaned against her man’s strong embrace; she spoke weakly: “Didn’t you keep saying that you wanted to go home with me? Let’s go home together on Chinese New Year’s Eve, lest I leave you behind and celebrate the New Year alone.”
She was speaking weakly, but Hou Zi’s mood was like a rollercoaster, suddenly shooting into the skies then falling towards the ground with a ‘thump,’ he asked her in a very uncertain tone: “Babe, you’re not telling a joke, right?”
“What, you don’t want to go home with me and celebrate the new year together?” XIa Yiwei, who seemed to not have any strength a moment ago, sat upright in his embrace, she looked him out of the corner of her eyes, and suddenly her aura was turned on and had a queen’s grace around her, “then so be it, forget what I just said.”
Then that means she was serious!
With an excited heart, Hou Zi maintained his facial expression and spoke with a deep voice: “Words must mean something, how can they be treated so simply. Then I’ll have to make some preparations; your Grandpa likes to drink tea, I’ll prepare excellent tea leaves. Your Grandma likes small ornaments such as decor, I’ll also have to find a few excellent ones, and it’ll be best if they’re old objects.
“You also have to give me a list of what your Uncles, Aunts, eldest brother, and eldest sis-in-law likes. I need to prepare some gifts since I’m visiting for the first time; I can’t lose manners.”
“What about your brothers? What do they like? Xia family has many sons and few daughters; besides you, only your Aunt has a daughter; I need to spend a bit more thought for that sister of yours.”
After mentioning an event of a lifetime, Hou Zi was acting like a normal man, afraid of leaving behind a bad impression on his first time visiting, so he was doing his best to make things perfect.
Xia Yiwei watched as he spoke with a serious face, the smile in her eyes had poured out a while ago; she had been with this man in front of her for nearly twenty years, breaking up and getting back together multiple times; they still came together in the end.
Staring at the man who used to be a handsome fella that made young ladies of Changan street crazy and young heiresses cozy up to him, not turned into a mature and steady middle-aged man, the time had treated him really well, he didn’t grow uglier with time, and had instead turned more handsome, he was filled with a charm that made girls fall in love from head to toe, especially that pair of sloe-eyes, they were deep and restrained, after staring at him for too long, anyone would feel their heartbeats quicken.
Although he had gotten more handsome, what made her fascinated was how he treated her; the last twenty years passed like one day, he had never had another woman, he didn’t even have any romantic rumors surrounding him, he had always kept himself faithful.
The past him had told the young her: “You are my one, and only, my one and only that will never change in my lifetime.”
