52 Work Hard

"Can't I just stay here for a while?"

Jiang Xu was a bit miffed that he was being excluded by this group of betrayers.

Hui Yin was disdainful.

"We're here for the sleepover, so what are you going to be here for? Go back to the company and make some money. Stop being such a lazy bum."

Jiang Xu felt offended by this. Didn't he become a CEO? Sure, he more often slept than not, but he made sure he completed his duties before that!

"Not true," he shot back.

"What's not true? That you're a lazy bum? Or that you're not part of this sleepover?" Hui Yin crossed her arms.

Jiang Xu's capability to only string a few words in a sentence had long since irritated her, so she always picked a fight with him. After all, how could he win an argument by saying only a few words?

Hui Yin wanted to push how far he could go.

"The first one," he instantly replied.

"Oh, so you're not a lazy bum? Why am I not aware of this? Aren't you the guy who broke up with his girlfriend because he was too lazy to—" Hui Yin glanced at the two little buns who were enjoying the sight of their Wifey bullying their older brother—"perform?"

The tips of Jiang Xu's ears turned red. Sure enough, he shouldn't have told her!

While it was true that he thought having sex would be exhausting, he felt that the true reason he broke up with Qin Bingqing was simply because she didn't arouse any sexual urges from him.

For the majority of their dating life, Jiang Xu had more or less treated her like a pet he adopted than a girlfriend.

"Not lazy," Jiang Xu defended himself. "I'm a CEO."

"CEO?" Hui Yin deliberately mocked him. "I bet you just sit in your office all day and order your assistant to do everything. You probably even sleep all the time."

To be sure, her guesses were nearly a hundred percent accurate. Jiang Xu was a bit impressed by how much his Wifey knew him.

Wait! Jiang Xu suddenly became dumbstruck by an idea.

Doesn't this...doesn't this feel like a wife scolding his husband for being too laidback?!

He straightened his back. "I work hard for our family."

Hui Yin didn't think too much of this, and only thought that he was referring to the Jiang family.

"Work hard? Isn't that a job that was only given to you on a silver platter? If you weren't born into a wealthy family, who knows how long you'd have survived in this world full of hard-working people. You'd probably starve on the streets."

Jiang Xu reached out and patted her head.

"Wifey, don't worry too much. I'll earn lots of money so that we won't starve. I promise."

Filled with determination, Jiang Xu puffed up his chest.

"I'll go back to the company and work hard."

Immediately after saying that, he got into his car and drove away.

Hui Yin, who was still feeling triumphant for forcing Jiang Xu to speak more than ten words, felt that something was a bit amiss.

But deciding that it was probably only her imagination, Hui Yin promptly entered into the apartment with the two little buns, blissfully aware that a company somewhere was having a heart attack because their boss had suddenly decided to work overtime...
