Chapter 67 Want it?
"Are we going to kiss?"
Xu Qingwu quickly took the plate from him: "You don't have to learn everything."
Seeing her slightly red ears, knowing that she was shy, Cen Xihuai raised his lips and said, "Okay."
The two finished their dinner quietly and drove home.
Xu Qingwu went upstairs to pack her luggage for her business trip tomorrow. She was still in the same style of picking up pieces here and there, to the point that Cen Xihuai couldn't stand it when he passed by and saw it.
Cen Xihuai came over and offered, "I'll do it."
When Xu Qingwu saw that he couldn't help but frown, she knew that his obsessive-compulsive disorder had come back and gave way to him.
Xu Qingwu was bored and asked him, "Why do you have to be so neat?"
“Easy to find and saves time.”
"But doesn't it take time to sort it out?"
“…That makes sense.” Cen Xihuai agreed with her point of view, but his hands did not stop moving at all.
After packing her luggage, Cen Xihuai asked her about tomorrow's schedule. Xu Qingwu thought he would send her off like last time, so she quickly said, "The high-speed train is at 9 o'clock this morning. I'll take the subway, so you don't need to send me off."
"The high-speed train will send me there."
"What?"
"Mother Yang will accompany you."
Xu Qingwu had a bad feeling in his heart: "No need?"
Sure enough, the next moment she heard Cen Xihuai say, "She's going over to make Chinese medicine for you."
Xu Qingwu: "..."
Is he a devil?
She thought she could finally escape from the sea of suffering for a few days!
This week has been very busy. We haven't had sex once, and I haven't confirmed how many days my business trip will take. If I postpone it to next week, it would be a bit too much next week.
Xu Qingwu finished washing up early and waited for Cen Xihuai.
However, after waiting for a long time, the clock was almost pointing to eleven o'clock, and he still hadn't returned to the room.
Xu Qingwu went to the study to look for someone.
She knocked a few times, and Cen Xihuai came over, opened the door, and asked her, "Can't sleep?"
Xu Qingwu tried to hint: "It's almost eleven o'clock."
"I'll be done soon, you go to sleep first."
"I have to go on a business trip tomorrow, and today is the only day left this week."
"Do you want it?" Cen Xihuai suddenly had an idea.
Xu Qingwu: "..."
No, she doesn’t. She just doesn’t want it to accumulate and make next week too hard!
"You'll be tired from the ride tomorrow, so rest early today, okay?"
“…”
Xu Qingwu didn't want to pay any attention to him and went back to her room to sleep.
In the end, Yang Ma was unable to go with them because Xu Qingwu had her period that morning and she couldn't take medicine during her period.
Cen Xihuai took out the memo and wrote it down.
"Based on a 30-day cycle, this time it's one week later than last time."
Xu Qingwu ate breakfast and said unconcernedly: "This is already very good. Sometimes I only have my period once every two months."
Cen Xihuai: "..."
This Chinese medicine needs to be carefully supervised.

This business trip was to discuss cooperation with the subsidiary of the new energy vehicle company that had been drawn in the previous lottery.
After a few days, the conditions were almost agreed upon. The subsidiary company proposed that the matter still needed to be submitted to the Beijing North headquarters for approval, and they would not be able to give her a reply until after the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Xu Qingwu had just finished her business trip and returned to Beijing on the Mid-Autumn Festival. Cen Xihuai came to the airport to pick her up.
After finally checking in his luggage, Xu Qingwu walked towards the exit.
The electronic screen scrolled through the flight schedules, and the sound of luggage wheels being pulled was endless. It was a holiday, so there were many passengers and people picking up passengers at the airport.
Xu Qingwu wanted to take out her cell phone to call Cen Xihuai to ask him where he was, but when she looked up, she saw that unignorable figure in the crowd.
Because it was a day off, he didn't wear a suit, but a simple casual outfit, a camel cardigan with a white inner layer, which made him look a little softer than usual.
Seeing him standing there looking at her quietly, Xu Qingwu felt very relieved.
There were more and more people behind her, so she quickly scanned her ID card to exit the station, then trotted to Cen Xihuai.
Cen Xihuai frowned slightly, took her luggage smoothly, and taught her like an elder: "Don't run, be careful."
Xu Qingwu replied perfunctorily, "I understand." After getting in the car, she asked him, "Which house are we going to celebrate the festival?"
When I was single, I didn’t have to worry about the holidays, but now that I’m married, I have to consider more about how to balance two families.
"Don't worry about it."
Cen Xihuai handed her a sandwich.
Xu Qingwu only ate a pack of biscuits on the plane and was hungry, but she was not used to eating in Cen Xihuai's car and was afraid that toast crumbs would fall on the car seat and upset him.
"Why don't you eat?"
“It will make the car dirty.”
"Eat, it's time to wash the car."
"Okay~"
Xu Qingwu then stopped worrying and began to eat heartily, with her cheeks puffed up like a little hamster.
Cen Xihuai silently curled his lips and started the car.
After entering the city, Xu Qingwu finished her sandwich and felt a little strange.
"This doesn't seem like the way home?"
"Let's go somewhere first."
"Where are you going?"
“Almost there.”
The car stopped at the foot of the mountain, where my parents were buried.
Xu Qingwu's eyes were a little moist. Seeing Cen Xihuai looking at her, she felt a little embarrassed and murmured, "If you had told me you were coming here earlier, I could have bought a bunch of flowers."
Cen Xihuai opened the trunk and took out a bunch of pale yellow daisies, which were Xu Qingwu's mother's favorite flowers.
Considering that she was prone to pollen allergies, Cen Xihuai did not give her the flowers, but held them on the other side away from her.
"Let's go up."
"good."
Cen Xihuai walked in front, and Xu Qingwu trotted after him, putting his left hand into the palm of his right hand.
Seeing him looking at her, Xu Qingwu blushed slightly: "The mountain road is a bit difficult to walk on."
He held her hand tightly.
The two went up the mountain side by side.
The cemetery is halfway up the mountain, and it takes twenty minutes to get there. The morning air in the mountains is a bit cool. When Xu Qingwu let go, he felt a slight sweat on his palms.
Cen Xihuai placed the daisy in front of the tombstone and walked away very tactfully, leaving Xu Qingwu and her parents some space to be alone.
Even after many years, Xu Qingwu still felt a lump in her throat when she saw the photo on the tombstone. She turned around, wiped her tears, and smiled again.
"Mom and Dad, I'm here to see you."
"By the way, I'm married..."
"He's a very good person, considerate, attentive, and handsome..."
"The only bad thing is that he forced me to drink Chinese medicine, and I'm most afraid of bitterness. But he would buy me candy..."
“…”
After telling his parents about his recent situation for a while, Xu Qingwu looked down at his watch and was surprised to find that half an hour had passed.
Worried that Cen Xihuai might be impatient, she turned around to look at him, but saw him just standing there quietly, his back tall.
Xu Qingwu walked over to him. Cen Xihuai turned around and said in a gentle voice, "Have you finished talking with your parents?"
"Come with me."
Xu Qingwu held his hand again, and Cen Xihuai followed her.
She brought him to her parents' tombstone and introduced him with a smile: "Mom and Dad, he is my husband, Cen Xihuai."
