371 Han Shi’s Scheme
Two days later, it was Grandma Xia’s 60th birthday.
This day, people were greeted with the first snow of 1983. Crystal clear snowflakes danced in the sky. Qin Xi reached out to catch them, and the snowflakes melted into a cold drop of water.
Han Shi opened the umbrella and held it above Qin Xi. He held Qin Xi’s hand and looked at her with a smile.
It was rare for the two of them to dress formally. Han Shi was wearing a sapphire blue suit. His entire body was filled with exquisite items, making him as noble and extraordinary as a young master. Coupled with his domineering aura, he could easily stand out from a crowd.
Qin Xi was wearing a camel-colored woolen coat with a retro lapel. She was wearing pine platform shoes and looked like a medieval noble lady.
These were all designed by Qin Xi based on her memories from her previous life. Dong Xiaoxuan was in charge of making it. This was because Dong Xiaoxuan used to be in the fashion industry and was more familiar with it.
Qin Xi did not expect Dong Xiaoxuan to have such skills. It was a waste of talent for her to be a nanny. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly had a bold idea.
As for Han Shi, he had never seen Qin Xi dressed like this before. Seeing how beautiful Qin Xi was, he immediately felt a sense of crisis and suddenly regretted letting her dress up like this.
“Wifey, you have to follow me closely later and not leave my sight, understand?”
Qin Xi was stunned. “Why?”
They were going to attend a birthday banquet, not going to do something dangerous. Why couldn’t she leave his side? Seeing that he was still so serious, she couldn’t help but be curious. “Did something happen?”
Seeing her puzzled expression, Dong Xiaoxuan, who was at the side, covered her mouth and chuckled. Even Blood Stealer could tell what was going on and said teasingly, “Of course it’s because Lady Boss is too beautiful. Boss is afraid of losing you!”
Han Shi glared at Blood Stealer and turned his attention to Qin Xi.
“Xi, why don’t you change back to your previous clothes? Actually, you’re so good-looking that you’ll look good in anything. There’s no need to dress up formally. Besides, if you are too dazzling, you’ll steal all the limelight, don’t you think so?”
Qin Xi rolled her eyes and said with a straight face, “It’s almost time. Do you want Grandma Xia to wait for us?”
Han Shi got into the car and ignored Qin Xi. He turned his face to the side. In order to let Qin Xi know that he was angry, he snorted.
However, after waiting for a long time, Qin Xi did not take the initiative to talk to him. He could only turn his head back awkwardly and say without blushing, “I’m angry, but you didn’t even say something nice to me. Are you still my wife?”
Of course, Qin Xi knew what he was thinking and was holding back her laughter. Now that she was asked, she tilted her head and blinked her big innocent eyes. She asked in confusion, “Are you angry? Why? Shouldn’t I be the one who’s angry?”
“Uh… Then let’s not be angry. It’s not good for your health to be angry.” Han Shi smiled foolishly.
The two of them chatted for a long time before finally arriving at the Xia family’s old residence.
Qin Xi had been to the old residence once and the doorkeeper knew her. Xia Tangxin had also instructed the doorkeeper to let Qin Xi in without an invitation.
However, just as the doorkeeper was respectfully inviting Qin Xi and Han Shi into the residence, a familiar voice suddenly came from the door.
“Yo, where did this Tom, Dick, and Harry come from? You have to have an invitation to enter a high-class banquet. Doorkeeper, watch out. Don’t let anyone in. If a thief sneaks in, you won’t be able to bear the consequences!”
