You'll have a family after Chapter 6.
Hearing this, Grandpa Qin paused in flipping through the marriage certificate, then said irritably, "On such a joyous day, where else would he go if not back?! This brat didn't even say he'd come back with you. Don't worry about him, just cook whatever you want, he's not picky about food."
Qiao Xing sensed that the old man was just saying things out of anger, but she still asked, "Does he have any dietary restrictions?"
"What dietary restrictions could a grown man possibly have!"
"Okay... I'll go back and cook then."
Grandpa Qin quickly stopped her, "Come here and cook. We're all family now, why are you and me?"
Qiao Xing thought about it and agreed. Grandpa Qin's legs weren't good, and it was inconvenient for him to run around every day. She nodded and smiled, "Okay, then I'll just cook here from now on."
Since her grandmother passed away, Qiao Xing has had no relatives left. She treats Grandpa Qin as her own grandfather, but due to his status, she can only visit him every few days with some food.
From now on, she won't have to worry about these things anymore; she can go and talk to Grandpa Qin every day.
Grandpa Qin gave her an appreciative look, his eyes slightly moist. He also regarded Qiao Xing as his own granddaughter.
Qiao Xing went back inside, brought over the groceries she had bought, and went into the kitchen to cook.
The old man sat on the sofa outside, watching the clock on the wall until six o'clock in the evening. He then took out his old-fashioned mobile phone and called Qin Ce.
Qin Ce was in a meeting when he received a call from the old man. He frowned, but he had no choice but to answer.
He held his phone, raised his hand to interrupt the manager who was speaking, and then answered the call, "Hello, Grandpa."
"What are you doing, you brat?"
Qin Ce rubbed his temples and said wearily, "I'm in a meeting at the company."
"What time is it? You're still having a meeting? Have you forgotten what day it is today?"
Today is Monday.
"You..." Grandpa Qin almost choked on his breath. He roared, "Today is your wedding day! You're in a meeting? What kind of meeting are you in? I'm giving you half an hour. If you don't come back, don't ever come back!"
The old man angrily hung up the phone.
The meeting room was quiet, but the old man's voice was so loud that it was hard for anyone near Qin Ce not to hear him.
Most of the high-ranking officials here had returned from abroad, so they were quite familiar with Qin Ce. They all looked surprised.
Everyone's surprised by the same thing: President Qin is getting married today?!
That's incredibly dedicated! He was even busy working on his wedding day.
"Mr. Qin, you're getting married? Why didn't you tell us?"
Qin Ce sighed, not wanting to discuss this topic with them, and waved his hand, saying, "Let's stop here for today and continue the meeting tomorrow."
After saying that, he got up, picked up his coat, and went out.
He arrived at the company entrance, where his driver, Xiao Li, had been waiting for him for quite some time.
Qin Ce glanced at the Maybach and frowned. "Xiao Li, bring over that Mercedes from this morning. You don't need to pick me up anymore."
Xiao Li stared wide-eyed in fear, stammering, "Mr. Qin, is there something I did wrong? Please don't fire me."
"When did I say I was going to fire you? Get back to work!"
Xiao Li was taken aback when he heard this, but quickly agreed and ran to the parking lot to drive over the Mercedes-Benz E300.
Qin Ce took the car keys, got into the car, and drove off with a throttle.
There was a traffic jam at that time. He was stuck at a traffic light intersection when he turned his head and saw a wedding ring shop across the street.
Qiao Xing cooked the meal and brought it to the table. Grandpa Qin, leaning on his cane, came closer to the table and sniffed it. "This is such a feast!"
Qiao Xing was a little embarrassed, "Isn't today a special day?"
Hearing Qiao Xing say this, Grandpa Qin's smile faded a little. He looked at Qiao Xing with a complicated expression and said, "Xingxing, your wedding was so rushed, and you didn't do anything. Don't you feel wronged?"
Qiao Xing laughed and said, "How could that be? These are just formalities. The most important thing is for two people to live together. Besides, even if I held those events, I wouldn't have any relatives to attend."
How awkward would that be?
Grandpa Qin looked at her with heartache and patted the back of her hand. "Now that you're pregnant, Xiao Ce and Grandpa will both be your family. You can hold your head high when you're out there!"
A warm feeling washed over Qiao Xing, and she nodded, "Mm."
If she had any apprehension about this unknown marriage just now, it's gone now. No matter what the future holds, at least she has a grandfather who truly cares for her.
Seeing Grandpa Qin reminded her of how Lin Yu's parents treated her.
The first time she went to Lin Yu's house, his mother gave her a hard time. There were four vegetarian dishes on the table. After the meal, everyone sat on the sofa, wondering if she would clean up.
When he left, he gave her a red envelope containing 100 yuan, and later secretly told Lin Yu that he had given her 1,000 yuan.
These things are still vivid in her mind, and thinking about them makes her nose sting with tears.
As the two were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of a key opening a door outside.
Qin Ce has returned. He has a suit jacket draped over his arm, a white shirt, and black trousers. With his tall stature and outstanding demeanor, he truly looks like a successful person.
Qiao Xing took the initiative to walk up to him, took the coat from his hand, and said, "Go wash your hands and have dinner."
Qin Ce watched her busy figure, his expression momentarily dazed. He suddenly realized that he was already married.
He hesitated for a moment, changed his shoes and went to the restroom. When he came out, Qiao Xing had already served all the food.
It was all home-style cooking, but today was a special day, so Qiao Xing also bought some seafood, including a few large crabs.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was a bit awkward.
Grandpa Qin coughed and took the initiative to lighten the mood, "Xiao Ce, how's work going?"
Qin Ce kept his head down as he ate, saying without looking up, "Still looking."
The woman's cooking is quite good. I've been busy all day and haven't eaten a single bite yet.
Grandpa Qin's face darkened.
Qiao Xing hurriedly said, "Grandpa, he's back from abroad, so it should be easy for him to find a job. He should compare several companies before deciding where to work."
Grandpa Qin opened his mouth, then sighed. Oh well, the wedding is already over, so he couldn't be bothered with these things anymore.
Qin Ce wanted to test Qiao Xing's character. Anyway, he trusted Qiao Xing and wasn't afraid of Qin Ce's test.
After finishing their meal, Qiao Xing cleared the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen. Outside, Grandpa Qin tapped Qin Ce's knee with his cane, "Aren't you going to help? Do you really want to be waited on?"
The force was considerable, and Qin Ce's body stiffened for a moment.
"Go on!" Grandpa Qin glared at him.
Qin Ce stood up helplessly and walked towards the kitchen.
"I'll help you."
Qiao Xing put the washed dishes into the cupboard and hurriedly said, "No need, I'll clean them up right away."
Qin Ce pretended not to hear her and picked up the plate from the cutting board to wash it in another sink.
Qiao Xing paused, as if she wanted to say something, when her phone suddenly rang.
She wiped her hands on her apron, took out her phone, and saw that it was Lin Yu calling.
She glanced at Qin Ce subconsciously.
