?
During that screening, he made a genuine effort to immerse himself in the film and connect with the emotional scenes to support Irish. However, he struggled to grasp the overall message or theme of the movie.
When it came to watching such movies, Joseph's immediate inclination was to analyze the film's production and distribution companies, identify brand sponsors, and contemplate the potential profitability upon its release in the market.
Given his previous experience in investing in movies, it was only natural for him to approach it from a business perspective.
As Irish continued to chat excitedly after they left the theater, Joseph remained silent with a smile, simply listening to her. He was hesitant to reveal his lack of understanding of the movie's theme, fearing that it might disappoint her.
Irish affectionately ruffled his hair and persistently asked, "To be honest, you don't enjoy watching these movies, do you?"
Joseph displayed patience and gently reassured her, saying, "I'm more than willing to go watch the movie with you."
Irish, taking the conversation seriously, asked him, "But were you enticed by the wise old man?"
Joseph jokingly replied, "I'm only interested in women."
Irish playfully pinched his arm and persisted, "I'm being serious."
Joseph looked into her eyes and responded, "If I accept his invitation, I will have to go abroad for two years."
"Can you also bring me there?" Irish asked with a big smile.
Joseph pretended to think for a while and then said, "Nope."
"Well, then, you are not allowed to go abroad. There are so many beautiful girls abroad, and they are enthusiastic, and I worry that they will take you away from me."
Upon hearing this, Joseph found himself caught between mixed emotions, unable to either cry or laugh. He continued to joke with Irish, saying, "You really overestimate my enthusiasm, Irish. I'm already exhausted from dealing with you every night."
Understanding his reference, Irish pursed her lips and declared, "Regardless, I won't allow you to go abroad."
Without hesitation, Joseph quickly assured her, "Okay, I promise."
Irish, taken aback, widened her eyes and inquired, "Are you saying you won't accept his invitation?"
Joseph gave a slight nod but remained silent.
Seeing this, Irish waved her hands and explained, "Joseph, I am just joking with you. You can go wherever you go and do whatever you want to do." Although Irish hoped to live a peaceful life with him, she knew that Joseph attached great importance to his career.
"I have declined his suggestion," replied Joseph with a soft smile.
"Why? Tell me." It seemed he had his own plan.
Joseph smiled and then replied, "I am involved in a lawsuit and will be called by the police at any time. It is not appropriate to work in another company immediately. What's more, I am not allowed to go abroad. But the most important reason is that I only want to focus on diamonds. Warner Group has various luxurious products, but the diamond is not the main product, so I am not interested in it."
Irish widened her eyes, pointed at her nose, and said, "But I am interested in those luxurious products. I can get many benefits if you work in that company," said Irish.
Joseph couldn't help but burst out into laughter. "I can buy anything you want."
"Okay, remember what you said today," responded Irish cheerfully.
Joseph pinched her nose gently as if she was a spoiled kid.
"Well, what did the man ask you to do in their company?" added Irish.
"The Chief Executive Officer in Europe, and they will recruit me to join the board of directors of the headquarters group two years later."
Shocked, Irish opened her mouth slightly and said after she came back to the earth, "You mean you are going to be responsible for the entire stores of Warner Group in Europe?"
Joseph nodded but said nothing.
"There are nearly forty countries."
"I just need to take charge of the stores in some key countries," Joseph corrected her.
"Well, you can also make a lot of money by taking this position. Wow, Joseph, we will make a pile. Give a call to him and tell him that you decided to accept his suggestion," Irish said agitatedly.
Joseph was helpless but remained silent.
"Okay, just forget it," Irish then added and then calmed down.
Joseph was amused by his wife. Finally, they didn't watch the movie but went shopping and bought some lovers' clothes.
The air was getting cool when the sun was setting. The breeze blew away the heat while the cicada also stopped singing.
Irish asked Joseph to change into the lover's clothes and ride the bicycle that they just bought not long ago.
They bought the bicycle on Irish's whim. Indeed, they rarely get a chance to ride a bicycle since both of them are busy with their work. Joseph always drove his car wherever he went. What was more important was that Irish couldn't bear the young girls' ardent eyes whenever they went out driving his luxury car. Therefore, Irish decided to buy a bicycle so that they could ride to relieve boredom.
Joseph hadn't ridden a bicycle for so many years, and it was also because he had no free time to waste on it. However, when Irish made such a proposal, Joseph didn't refuse her. In this case, Irish bought one that could carry her behind. She always dreamed that someday Joseph could carry her on a bicycle to enjoy a diversion along the street on a breezy night. She would hold his waist with her cheeks against his back.
Therefore, when it finally came true, Irish felt so happy, and it was so sweet for her.
Joseph changed their lover's clothes and was dressed casually. Irish selected a red T-shirt with a cartoon pattern.
Although Joseph was reluctant to put it on, he had no other choice. Joseph felt so embarrassed when some girls passed by and looked back at him. Some daring girls even shouted at him, "You look so cute."
It was the first time he had heard such a compliment.
Irish compressed her lips into a smile and then embraced his waist tight.
"Irish, now I regret getting married to you," Joseph pretended to complain about her.
"How dare you?" Irish replied in a loud voice and then pinched his waist.
Joseph rocked and then giggled to ask for pardon. "Irish, stop. It is not safe."
