“We’re going out for a stroll. It’s already dark, let’s check out the nightlife in Rong City!” At this moment, Jiang Li lay on the sofa while Zhou Chao was giving her a massage.

“I also want to go out, but it’s all your fault, my legs are still a bit sore!”

I’ll give you a massage!” Zhou Chao’s large hand naturally fell on Jiang Li’s calf.

“No need to be so attentive; either you have ulterior motives, or you’re up to no good. I wonder what evil plan you’re plotting!”

“Am I that kind of person?” Zhou Chao frowned.

It seems like today’s house rules haven’t made you realize who’s in charge here!” Saying that, Zhou Chao’s hand began to wander. Since Jiang Li was wearing shorts, she was very sensitive and couldn’t help but squirm on the sofa.

“Alright, i’ll go with you. Hubby, 1 was wrong, okay? Don’t touch me; it’s so ticklish!” Jiang Li quickly surrendered to Zhou Chao’s mischievous touch, and he retracted his hand from his misdeeds.

After some playful moments, they got up from the sofa. Just as they stepped out of the door, they saw Lin Wu coming out of his room.

“Boss, where are you guys going?”

“We’re going for a stroll.”

“But...”

Before Lin Wu could finish his sentence, Zhou Chao gestured with his hand to stop him.

“If we’re going for a romantic evening, do you really want to tag along? Stay here. By the way, give Wang Feng a call. He’s still at the hotel on Chunxi Road. Tonight, you’re in charge of taking the others out for dinner. As for other activities, figure it out yourself.”

Once Zhou Chao finished speaking, he took Jiang Li’s hand and headed for the elevator, leaving Lin Wu standing there dumbfounded.

“What on earth is going on?” Lin Wu sighed and turned back to his room, taking out his phone from his pocket.

“Hubby, where are we going now?” The two of them got into the Phantom and joined the busy traffic.

“Let’s start with Taikoo Li. We can see how it goes, and if it’s not fun, we can head over to the nearby IFS.”

“Sounds good! You’re in charge!” Jiang Li said with a wink, her playful and cute demeanor making Zhou Chao’s heart race. If he weren’t driving at the moment, he would have shown Jiang Li the consequences of teasing him.

They made several stops along the way, and what was originally a 10-minute journey took nearly half an hour to reach Taikoo Li.

Let’s go, my dear!” Zhou Chao extended his right hand to Jiang Li as soon as they got out of the car.

“Are you embarrassed to be so affectionate in public? You call me ‘my dear,’ luckily there’s no one else here, or else we’d be the subject of everyone’s jokes!” Although she said it with a hint of disdain, she still held Zhou Chao’s hand obediently.

The two of them had never gone out together like this before, and as they walked down the streets of Taikoo Li, they became the center of attention.

“Damn, that guy is so handsome. If I had just a third of his looks, would I still be single?”

“Stop boasting; with your 200 pounds and 5’8′′ height, you’d better go to bed!”

“The girl has such a great figure, curvy in all the right places, slim and trim. Indeed, being handsome is a blessing!”

“You rascal! What are you looking at? Am I not attractive enough? You can sleep on the couch tonight!”

Zhou Chao and Jiang Li unintentionally stirred up a small commotion in Taikoo Li’s square, but they remained oblivious to it. At the moment, they were standing in line at a bubble tea shop.

“I think this short-sleeved shirt suits you well, and this one, and this one. Hmm, why do 1 feel like everything looks good on you?” Jiang Li carefully selected several pieces of clothing, and Zhou Chao looked perfect in each of them.

“This handsome guy here is a perfect clothes hanger. Anything he wears looks great,” the Armani salesperson chimed in, praising Zhou Chao’s excellent physique.

“Then pack up these clothes and the matching pants for me!” Perhaps influenced by the salesperson’s words, Jiang Li decided to buy all the clothes she had chosen.

“Why are you buying me so many clothes? We already have plenty at home in Modu. 1 won’t be able to wear all of these!”

“What’s the matter? Are you unhappy with it? 1 can have the salesperson return them all if you want!” Threatening to go to the cashier, Jiang Li pretended to leave the store.

“No, how could I be unhappy? I’m delighted that my wife is buying me clothes!” Zhou Chao quickly pulled Jiang Li back and, as a result, she ended up sitting on his lap.

“Excuse me, you two... Oh, sorry for interrupting!” Just as the salesperson came in to ask if they needed anything else, she saw Jiang Li sitting on Zhou Chao’s lap, hugging his neck. She quickly retreated from the fitting room.

“Ahh, it’s all your fault. My image is ruined in an instant!” Blushing with embarrassment, Jiang Li stood up from Zhou Chao’s lap and playfully kicked him.

“Ouch, that hurts!”

“All, are you okay? Let me see!” Jiang Li quickly bent down to check if Zhou Chao had injured his foot. However, as soon as she knelt down, Zhou Chao cupped her small head and kissed her.

After a long while, Zhou Chao finally released her with a mischievous smile on his face.

“You’re such a troublemaker. Do you want to do something in the dressing room too?” Jiang Li’s voice became softer as she spoke.

Hearing this, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but smirk.

“I didn’t expect my wife to keep up with the latest trends!”

“Shame on you!” They tidied up and walked out of the dressing room. The salesperson who had been holding their purchased clothes was waiting at the cashier.

Without wasting any time, Zhou Chao took out a black card from his pocket and handed it to the cashier. It took less than 20 seconds to complete the transaction.

Just as they walked out of the Armani store, Zhou Chao heard Jiang Li’s stomach growling loudly.

Zhou Chao looked at Jiang Li with a mischievous grin. “Let’s go, how about we grab something to eat first?”

“Don’t make fun of me. It’s embarrassing!” Jiang Li’s hand had already reached Zhou Chao’s waist, and Zhou Chao was so startled that he took a few steps away.

They searched for a restaurant in Taikoo Li for a while, and after some time, they settled on a small eatery.

“Welcome to ‘A Small Eatery.’ Please come inside,” a waitress greeted them with a warm smile as they entered.

Indeed, the name of this restaurant was ‘A Small Eatery,’ and both Zhou Chao and Jiang Li were a bit surprised when they saw the sign.

Zhou Chao held Jiang Li’s hand and followed the waitress to their seats. He noticed that the restaurant was quite crowded, and many tables had one or two roast ducks placed on them.

The waitress led them to a table by the window, where they could overlook the bustling square below.

As they gazed at the crowded square and the colorful night scenery, Zhou Chao nodded in satisfaction.

H

Sir, madam, here’s the menu for our ‘A Small Eatery.’ Our specialty is Peking duck, and it’s absolutely delicious. Would you like to try it?” The waitress handed them the menu.

Zhou Chao took the menu and signaled for Jiang Li to order. She shook her head gently, so Zhou Chao took a look and quickly selected a few dishes.

“We’ll have the signature Peking duck, crispy-skinned squab, Dongpo pork, sweet and sour mandarin fish, stir-fried vegetables, and a pitcher of watermelon juice to finish it off!”
