But inside, she was about to explode with anger. She looked up at Nangong Yaoling’s deep yet frivolous gaze, gave him a small smile, then suddenly raised her elbow and attacked his chest while he was distracted.
Nangong Yaoling let out a painful grunt and instinctively released her.
Xia Xiaonuan seized the opportunity to stomp on him fiercely and then quickly fled.
Nangong Yaoling cried out in pain, watching Xia Xiaonuan’s fleeing figure, finding her irresistibly cute no matter how he looked at her.
The bodyguards who had been following them were dumbfounded. Their ruthless and cold boss had beco so... childish! He acted like a big boy! It was the first ti they had seen their boss teasing a girl like this, and the strangest part was that this girl was his legitimate wife...
The two bodyguards exchanged glances, their faces darkened.
Xia Xiaonuan had just stepped downstairs when a sharp-eyed driver quickly got out of the car and opened the door for her. As she approached, he respectfully called her, "Young Madam."
Xia Xiaonuan did not recognize the driver, so she turned her head to look around. But there was no one else around, only her. Was he... calling her?
The driver saw she didn’t respond and smiled, "Young Madam, are you feeling better? Please get in the car."
She ca to her senses and couldn’t help but smile.
Being called "Young Madam" felt so uncomfortable. A girl from a humble background like her being addressed in this way felt like acting in a Hong Kong romance drama.
While she was in a daze, Nangong Yaoling ca out, grabbed her, and stuffed her into the car.
"Hey... What are you doing?!"
Nangong Yaoling also got into the car, coldly looked at her, "What else can I do? Sell you? I wouldn’t even break even."
Xia Xiaonuan was stunned. This man, who had just been playful, suddenly adopted a superior attitude to ridicule her.
She gave a faint smile, "This shows Mr. Nangong doesn’t have much discernnt. Marrying a wife ans you’d lose money even if you sold her. It’s so pathetic!"
Nangong Yaoling was taken aback, not expecting to be countered after mocking her.
Wasn’t this like throwing stones at his own foot?
He gritted his teeth in anger, but unwilling to be outdone, he retorted, "So what? I bought it knowing it wasn’t a blue-chip stock. How much further can it fall? Besides, I, Nangong Yaoling, have plenty of money, it’s just entertainnt!"
Xia Xiaonuan: ...
He actually said she was junk stock? His implication was that marrying her was like raising a pet, directly using the word ’buy,’ making his ridicule all too clear.
Xia Xiaonuan slightly closed her eyes, discreetly clenched her fist, then casually said with a smile:
"Indeed, so tycoons have money, not only money, but also unique taste. They buy junk stocks and keep them at ho as their main portfolio, thinking it’s entertainnt. Admirable."
Nangong Yaoling’s face turned uglier with rage.
When had this woman beco so sharp-tongued? She debased herself to mock him for being a tasteless upstart.
Alright, he was wrong from the start. A man should never belittle his own wife; otherwise, it’s like deaning himself. Especially with the driver and Yun in the front.
The driver, strained by the verbal battle behind, focused on driving while holding back laughter. This young madam, after being discharged from the hospital, seed to have completely transford.
Nangong Yaoling took a shallow breath,
