Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!-Chapter 500: Did You Enjoy Yourself, Little Wife? I’ve Prepared a Late-Night Snack

Chapter 500: Chapter 500: Did You Enjoy Yourself, Little Wife? I’ve Prepared a Late-Night Snack

After a moment, Qin Xin replied: "Are you stupid? The fool has already taken the bait, you should reel in the fishing line."

The club president suddenly came to his senses.

Right, wouldn’t it be better to keep 5 million for himself? Why let it turn into a fish bone for others to chew?

Xinghe was really digging a pit to trap someone!

So bad, so bad indeed.

In the second-floor box.

Nalan Ye Jue saw Qin Xin finally put down her phone, mischief glimmering at the corners of her eyes. He couldn’t help but curl his lips into a smile: "Did the little wife have fun?"

Qin Xin responded with a "hmm."

Seeing Jun Ruyi lose five million on a fake item was immensely satisfying.

"Then the little wife can play a little longer tonight, no need to rush home. I’ve prepared fish ball soup as a night snack for you in the slow cooker, ready to eat when you get back."

Qin Xin was enjoying the sight of Jun Ruyi stuck in the trap she set on the first floor.

Unexpectedly, Nalan Ye Jue’s words caught her off guard, and she instinctively agreed: "Hmm, okay."

After a few seconds, she vaguely felt something was off: "Huh?"

Going home? 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Nalan Ye Jue just chuckled: "It’s nothing, the little wife can continue watching the show."

At this moment.

Jun Ruyi still wasn’t aware of how badly she’d been tricked.

Seeing that the president wasn’t competing with her for the bid, she thought spending 5 million had scared him off, making her feel dazed with success. She stood up proudly, raising her chin high!

When she heard the host announce: "5 million, for the third time!"

The auction hammer fell, confirming the piece as hers.

She was the first to start applauding.

The crowd, unaware of the truth, indeed admired her boldness, and everyone praised her.

The host looked incredulously at how this counterfeit had fetched such a high price, thinking to himself that Xinghe’s influence was genuinely extraordinary.

Then he hurriedly invited Jun Ruyi on stage to take a photo.

Suddenly, everyone was taking pictures!

Surrounded like a star, Jun Ruyi basked in the spotlight, reveling in her moment.

After the ’Xinghe’ piece fetched an exorbitant price, the following paintings and calligraphy seemed lackluster, with prices in the tens of thousands barely stirring any interest.

The auction concluded.

Qin Xin left empty-handed.

Nalan Ye Jue suggested: "Do you need me to accompany you around the antique market tomorrow?"

Qin Xin thought for a moment: "No need, it’s for the lady’s birthday, I’ll prepare the gift myself."

"Actually, the gift isn’t that important..." Nalan Ye Jue felt a bit lost.

The gift was just an excuse; he simply wanted more time to shop with her under the pretense of his mother’s birthday.

Regardless, whatever she fancied, he would pay for it.

Yet, this little woman truly stood out, showing no interest in shopping whatsoever.

He glanced at her simple hoodie.

It seemed that since he’d known her, she seldom wore anything luxurious.

Of course, being a top designer herself, dressing up was probably quite mundane for her.

It was challenging; he wanted to get her some pretty clothes but feared they wouldn’t catch her eye.

As for jewelry and diamonds... she didn’t care at all.

Nalan Ye Jue rubbed his temples in frustration, realizing how difficult it was to please his little woman.

Fortunately, back at Xinghe Bay Villa that evening.

Presenting the warm fish ball soup he had prepared, Qin Xin graciously finished a whole bowl.

Finally, Nalan Ye Jue felt a sense of achievement.

Hmm, since the little wife didn’t enjoy cooking, he finally had a strength that could fill a gap for her.

(PS: Filling a gap with strength, no innuendo here)
