The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

Chapter 441: Chapter 441 – Can’t Bear to Punish You_1

Hai Xiaotang’s deer-like eyes widened in disbelief.

What on earth was Dongfang Yu doing?

The man kneeling on a durian, with a cool expression, devoid of any signs of humility or embarrassment.

His deep gaze locked on her, “Is this enough?”

Hai Xiaotang was perplexed, surprised, “What do you mean?”

Wasn’t he supposed to make her kneel? Why did he kneel down instead?

Dongfang Yu grunted awkwardly, “I couldn’t bear to punish you, so I could only punish myself!”

“…” Hai Xiaotang was taken aback, “So, you planned to kneel yourself from the start?”

“What else did you think? I did want you to kneel!” But he simply couldn’t bear to do so.

Therefore, he had chosen to kneel himself!

Hai Xiaotang was stunned for a moment, she tried to pull him up, “You don’t need to kneel down, get up from the durian, hurry up!”

However, no matter how much she tugged, Dongfang Yu didn’t budge.

Hai Xiaotang became anxious, “Come on, get up, aren’t you in pain?”

It was a durian! Just looking at it made her feel pain.

Dongfang Yu’s face, however, remained unchanged. Instead, he grabbed her arm, his dark eyes thoughtfully fixated on her, “Do you still want a divorce?”

“…” Hai Xiaotang was startled.

Dongfang Yu said expressionlessly: “If you still want a divorce, I’ll stay kneeling!”

Hai Xiaotang was instantly enraged, “Are you threatening me?”

“You’re not the only one using a hunger strike to threaten me.”

Hai Xiaotang erupted in anger and complained, “I’m a woman, how can you argue with a woman? Stand up quickly, it would look awful if someone saw this!”

“Do you still want a divorce?” Dongfang Yu repeated stubbornly.

Hai Xiaotang let go of him, glaring, “Dongfang Yu, if you don’t get up now, I’ll really get angry.”

“Hai Xiaotang, do you still want a divorce?” Dongfang Yu repeated the sentence, almost like he wouldn’t let it rest until he got an answer.

Hai Xiaotang had never encountered such a headstrong man.

But then his stubbornness… she’d already had a taste of that before…

“Dongfang Yu, have you ever thought about how I feel?” Hai Xiaotang’s eyes began to moisten, “If your company really fails, everyone will blame me. They won’t blame you, only me! And, I don’t want you to lose everything!”

Dongfang Yu’s dark eyes flashed, he calmly said, “What if I told you, I can handle this crisis, would you believe me?”

Hai Xiaotang was surprised, a sense of joy welled up in her heart, “You have a way?”

“Yes, as long as you trust me and give me some time! Even though things are tough now, it will get better after we weather this storm. Hai Xiaotang, do you believe me?” Dongfang Yu asked earnestly.

Hai Xiaotang locked eyes with his dark gaze for a moment and finally nodded, choosing to believe him.

“Okay, I believe you.”

“You will trust me no matter what happens?”

Hai Xiaotang couldn’t help but thump him lightly, “Yes, I’ll believe you! Even if you’re going to deceive me, I’ll still trust you. After all, how can I compete with you?”

“So, you’re not planning on divorcing anymore and will stay by my side?”

“Yes, yes!” Hai Xiaotang reluctantly promised.

Dongfang Yu smiled, abruptly stood up, and hugged her tightly—

“Hai Xiaotang, remember what you said today, if this happens again, I’ll ‘punish’ you even more, and it won’t be as simple as this. You understand?”

Hai Xiaotang then understood what he was implying.

When he said he would punish her, he didn’t actually mean he would!
