Chapter 78

Zhao Yazhi was so startled by Wu Cheng that she almost dropped the spatula.

"Seventeen thousand square feet! How much would that cost? Did you embezzle the company's funds?"

Wu Cheng laughed and said, "Don't panic. I didn't touch the company's money. I used our own money, my royalties, and the money from Phoenix Garment Company! Also, it's not seventeen thousand square feet, but ten thousand square feet for one building and seven thousand square feet for another..."

"Isn't that still seventeen thousand square feet in total?" Zhao Yazhi heard this and slightly relaxed, then shot him a glance and said, "You secretly took the card from home! You didn't even tell me, and now you're getting more and more independent, aren't you!?"

"Please calm down, my lady..."

"Pah! Who is your lady? If you keep talking nonsense, I won't talk to you anymore!"

Wu Cheng chuckled, looking like a pig that isn't afraid of boiling water, and said, "We're not married now, but we will be in the future. From the moment I saw you, I considered you my lady... Do you remember the first time we met? At that moment, I felt that you must be an angel sent by heaven to save me. Otherwise, how could there be such a beautiful woman in this world! You didn't notice that I was so nervous that I even spoke incorrectly!"

"You just say sweet things to flatter me!" Zhao Yazhi twisted her body, a bit shy, and then asked, "What did you say at that time? I didn't notice that you spoke incorrectly."

"You didn't notice? Then it doesn't matter!"

"Are you going to tell me or not?" The goddess Zhao threatened with a meat clamp.

Wu Cheng's side twitched, and he laughed dryly, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you! At that time, I had already drunk a lot of seawater, so I wasn't thirsty at all! I actually wanted to go to the bathroom..."

Hearing this, Zhao Yazhi was a bit embarrassed and angry, and nudged him with her elbow, then said, "Don't people who drink seawater get thirsty? The salt content in seawater is so high... Don't you see that people who eat salty things get thirsty all the time? There's nothing wrong with that!"

"The problem is, I wasn't thirsty at that time!"

"..."

After a while, Zhao Yazhi asked, "Why did you think of buying a house? Are you unhappy living here with me? Or are you planning to... hide a beauty in a golden house!"

Wu Cheng chuckled and whispered in her ear, "Yes! I want to hide my goddess Yazhi!"

"You're just talking nonsense! I won't talk to you anymore! Let me go, the dish is ready to be served!"

...

After dinner, the two sat on the sand and chatted. "Xiao Cheng, I think we should move later. Recently, I have to shoot 'The Book and the Sword,' and this place is closer to the filming location. It's also more convenient to come back at night. If we move to the Mid-Levels or Repulse Bay... it will be far from the filming location, and it won't be convenient to go back and forth... Why don't you move there first?"

"Without you, Sister Yazhi, what's the point of me moving there alone?" Wu Cheng shook his head and said, "Let's wait until you finish shooting that movie!"

After a pause, he asked, "Sister Yazhi, do you prefer the Mid-Levels or Repulse Bay?"

Hearing this, Zhao Yazhi looked up and thought for a moment, then said, "They're both good! In the Mid-Levels, you can see the night view of Victoria Harbour, and in Repulse Bay, you can go swimming in the sea..."

Seeing Zhao Yazhi's indecision, Wu Cheng smiled and said, "Sister Yazhi, do you really need to be so conflicted? We can stay in the Mid-Levels in winter and in Repulse Bay in summer!"

"But Xiao Cheng, is it really a good idea for us to live together?" Zhao Yazhi thought for a moment and became conflicted again, "Living here, people won't say anything, but if we move to a villa in the Mid-Levels or Repulse Bay, people will definitely say bad things about us."

"Sister Yazhi, what's there to be afraid of? We're already living together, right?" Wu Cheng shook his head and smiled, "Everyone already considers you my girlfriend."

"..."

Seeing Zhao Yazhi's hesitant expression, Wu Cheng reached out and held her hand, knelt down, and looked at her seriously, "Sister Yazhi, are you willing to spend your whole life with me? Whether in sickness or in health, whether I am rich or poor..."

Looking at Wu Cheng's deeply sincere face, Zhao Yazhi couldn't bring herself to refuse. She slowly reached out and stroked his face.

After a long time, she nodded and said softly, "I... I am willing!"

Wu Cheng stood up and tightly hugged her, murmuring, "Sister Yazhi, I love you!"

Zhao Yazhi, with a dazed look, leaned against him. When her lips were captured by him and her fullness was invaded, she came to her senses and slapped his hand, "Little rascal, where are you putting your hands! If you keep this up, you'll have to move out alone!"

Wu Cheng smiled awkwardly, "I couldn't help it, I couldn't help it, don't blame me, don't blame me!"

Zhao Yazhi shot him a glance and said coyly, "I'm too lazy to talk to you, I'm going to take a shower!"

Watching her beautiful back, Wu Cheng's lips curled up, and he silently clenched his fist.

...

At the beginning of July, Zhao Yazhi had two days off. Wu Cheng thought it would be a good time to move to Repulse Bay for a couple of days and invite some friends for a party to let Zhao Yazhi relax.

Thinking about the need to prepare many things for the party, Wu Cheng thought of his brothers like Hong Jinbao and Sheng Long. Currently, Hong Jinbao was busy with his new movie, and Sheng Long was busy with the promotion of "Drunken Master," but Yuan Biao and the other brothers were free.

Wu Cheng called them, and upon hearing that Wu Cheng was going to have a party at the villa in Repulse Bay, Yuan Biao immediately volunteered to help move things.

But there wasn't much to move, as they weren't planning to leave this place. It was convenient to stay here while working. So, the two of them just packed two sets of clothes, and they would have to buy new living supplies.

With the help of these brothers, Wu Cheng felt they could go on a big shopping spree, even buying barbecue equipment.

So, that morning, a large group of people, led by Wu Cheng and Zhao Yazhi, went out to shop, buying whatever they needed for food, living, and using.

Also joining them were Sheng Long and Zhang Guorong, whom Wu Cheng had invited.

"Rong Shao, how did you meet Ah Cheng?"

Yuan Biao, who was about the same age as Zhang Guorong, walked up to him and asked with a smile.

"Ah Biao, you can still call me Shizai! It sounds more intimate!"

"Ha ha... I think 'Rong Shao' suits you! You're so handsome, you look like a rich young master... No, Ah Cheng said you are a young master, and I think 'Rong Shao' sounds better than 'Shizai'! I agree with Ah Cheng, 'Rong Shao' sounds so smooth!"

Zhang Guorong smiled bitterly, "Whatever you say!" After a pause, he added, "I haven't known Cheng Shao for long, but I know he is very warm and friendly. What about you?"

Yuan Biao smiled, "Ah Cheng is indeed very warm and friendly, and he has a lot of ideas. We met Ah Cheng through our senior brother. At that time, Ah Cheng looked like a twelve-year-old child and hadn't started his company yet... The first time we met, Ah Cheng and Ah Long even had a fight!"

"Ah? A fight? What happened then?" Zhang Guorong asked curiously.

Yuan Biao laughed, "Of course, Ah Long lost! Let me tell you a secret, Ah Cheng is a martial arts master. Although our martial arts skills are not bad, they are not in the same league as Ah Cheng. To put it simply, if our skills are at the level of Guo Jing and Huang Rong, then Ah Cheng's skills are at the level of Huang Yaoshi and Ouyang Feng. Can you imagine how high that is?"

"So amazing!?" Zhang Guorong seemed to be unable to imagine.

"Ah Biao, you're bad-mouthing Ah Cheng again, hehe... You dare to say Ah Cheng is Huang Yaoshi and Ouyang Feng, now you're in my hands!" Sheng Long appeared behind them with a mischievous smile, winking at Yuan Biao and said, "How about inviting us to a nightclub later?"

"Go away, I'm too lazy to talk to you!" Yuan Biao pouted and then laughed, "Ah Cheng asked us to supervise your studies, but you're thinking about going to a nightclub, hehe, should I tell Ah Cheng?"

Sheng Long rolled his eyes, "You're tough!"

Zhang Guorong asked curiously, "Cheng Shao asked Long Ge to study? What kind of books?"

Yuan Hua appeared beside them with a smile, "A book called 'The Actor's Self-Cultivation,' and of course, books about directing..."

"It seems Cheng Shao has high hopes for Long Ge!" Zhang Guorong was taken aback and sighed.

Yuan Biao shook his head and sighed, "But someone is still living in happiness without knowing it, always thinking about being lazy and cunning."

Sheng Long rolled his eyes, "Don't tell me Ah Cheng didn't give you
