Chapter 719: Chapter 724: Twice?_1
Tan Zhenghong nodded hesitantly, finally getting a task from his wife. He had to take it seriously.
But just the thought of not seeing his wife for many days made him feel unbearably stifled.
Qiao Duo’er could not stand it anymore and said, "Twice?"
Tan Zhenghong shook his head, twice simply wasn’t enough to comfort his wounded little heart.
Qiao Duo’er rolled her eyes, "Then I don’t care about you anymore, I’m going to sleep."
Tan Zhenghong immediately dropped all pretenses, two times it would be, then.
Otherwise, if his wife got angry, he would end up with none.
Half an hour later, Qiao Duo’er gritted her teeth and said, "Tan Zhenghong, are you doing this on purpose?"
Tan Zhenghong haughtily snorted. If there was no climax, it could only count as one time, most importantly, he felt he could hold on a bit longer.
After all, it was only twice in total, he had to make it worth it.
The next morning, Qiao Duo’er boarded the carriage under Tan Zhenghong’s reluctant gaze.
She even wondered if Tan Zhenghong had taken the wrong medicine. It was just a few days apart, did he need to be so melodramatic?
"Wife, I’ll come to see you whenever I’m free."
Tan Zhenghong waved his hand, actually wanting to pull Qiao Duo’er back.
But the thought of his wife commuting back and forth between the town and home every day, he couldn’t bear it.
"Take good care of yourself at home, and, oh, don’t randomly take any medicine while I’m not there," Qiao Duo’er especially instructed.
Otherwise, her bun plan would be postponed again.
Tan Zhenghong obediently nodded. Without Duo’er at home, the medicine wouldn’t be of any use.
Upon arriving in town, Qiao Duo’er began her busy life. Although she did not have to do the renovation work herself, there were endless trivial matters to attend to.
But seeing the shop develop as she wanted, no matter how tired she was, it felt worth it.
What she wanted was a high-end cosmetics store, with a VIP room inside. Customers who reserved the VIP room could enjoy one-on-one service, which included matching skincare products according to different skin types.
This requirement made the layout and matching of the store more challenging, but for Qiao Duo, her aesthetic level was sufficient to support a storefront.
On the fifth evening, Tan Zhenghong appeared.
Having not seen her for a day, he felt as if it had been three autumns, and in a flash, it seemed like it had been more than a decade.
Ignoring the workers who were still decorating the store, Tan Zhenghong demanded a big hug.
With her face flushing, Qiao Duo’er asked, "Why have you come?"
"There was a problem with the bean dregs the mill sent these last two days. I reminded them about it, and came by to see you, afraid you wouldn’t take good care of yourself."
Concerned, Qiao Duo’er asked, "What happened with the bean dregs?"
"It’s nothing much, just that the bean dregs at the bottom were watered down. I told them about it and said if this happens again, we’ll change suppliers," Tan Zhenghong said nonchalantly.
The mill’s boss initially denied it, but after he dropped that line, the boss was both apologizing profusely and vowing it wouldn’t happen again.
If it hadn’t been for this, he would have definitely decided to change suppliers for sure.
Tan Zhenghong then eagerly asked, "Wife, when will you come home?"
This was his most concerning question.
It had only been five days, but the shop had already changed significantly. To use his wife’s words, it resonated with an understated opulence.
He felt this was good enough and that there was no need to watch it every day.
"We’re finishing early today. I’ll talk to Ling’er and then we can go home. I’ll come back the day after tomorrow."
Qiao Duo’er gave a definite answer.
"Alright!" Tan Zhenghong’s smile was radiant. Tonight, he could once again sleep snuggled up with his fragrant, soft wife!
