The two people outside were talking excitedly when they were startled by the sudden noise.
When she turned around and saw it was Lu Xiaoqiao, Zheng Yan's sarcastic expression disappeared instantly, and she even hid behind Li Na in panic.
Lu Xiaoqiao seemed to ignore the two people as if they were air. She walked straight to the sink and began to wash her hands with a calm expression.
After washing his hands, he calmly shook off the water droplets on his hands, then turned around and looked at the two of them with a somewhat cold look in his eyes.
"Then you'd better pray that Zhou Qizheng dumps me as soon as possible. If he doesn't dump me, then as long as we are together, you have to behave yourself. If someone makes me unhappy, maybe one day I will confuse him like a fox spirit and let him vent my anger for me."
After Lu Xiaoqiao finished speaking, she turned and left without waiting for the two to react.
Seeing her walk away, Zheng Yan snorted coldly: "What's so great about that? She's young and pretty now, but if she loses that beauty in two years, will President Jiang Heng want her? There are plenty of young and pretty girls out there."
Looking at Lu Xiaoqiao's back as she turned and walked away gracefully, Li Na's eyes flashed with envy and jealousy.
But her slightly raised chin and tightly pursed lips revealed a sense of stubbornness. Thinking of what Sun Han had said to her yesterday, she was so angry that she trembled.
I went back to Hangzhou with Sun Han a few days ago. I thought Sun Han would blame me for her mother's cold shoulder, but I didn't expect that Sun Han not only didn't embarrass me, but treated me even better than before.
This made her even more convinced that it was more reliable to look for a boyfriend like Sun Han. The president of a group and the like were just short-lived relationships that would never last forever.
Just when she thought she was the happiest person, Sun Han actually told her to get along well with Lu Xiaoqiao and to please Lu Xiaoqiao? What a joke, it's impossible in this life. I don't know what Sun Han was thinking. Lu Xiaoqiao might just be a plaything for Zhou Qizhen, but he, an employee, took it seriously, as if Lu Xiaoqiao was now their boss's wife. It was really funny.
"Just wait and see! When I get dumped, my aunt's family will be laughed at."
…
It's the first day of work in the new year and everyone has not yet recovered from the holiday.
The cafeteria in the office building would not reopen until after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, so Lu Xiaoqiao and Zhao Jia had just arrived at noon, so they went out early to solve the problem of lunch.
Lu Xiaoqiao only then remembered that she had not even had breakfast when Zhou Qizhen dragged her to the Civil Affairs Bureau. She guessed that he was too busy to remember.
"Jia, why don't we go eat burgers? It's a quick way to go. If we walk to the pedestrian street, we probably won't have enough time at noon. Everyone in the office building goes there, so it will definitely be crowded."
Zhao Jia also nodded and said, "I think so too."
The two arrived at the place, scanned the code with their mobile phones, and ordered a lunch set each. Lu Xiaoqiao also ordered an extra portion of chicken nuggets.
Zhao Jia was a little surprised by what she ordered: "Can you finish it?"
Lu Xiaoqiao held her stomach and said, "Yes, I'm so hungry now that I want to eat someone! I haven't even had breakfast yet."
Zhao Jia glanced at her playfully: "You didn't even have breakfast? You were late again today. What did you and Mr. Zhou do last night?"
Lu Xiaoqiao pursed her lips and said, "Jia Jie, why are you so mean? We got off the plane very late yesterday, and when we got home we had to pack our luggage, and then..."
"What is it?" Zhao Jia asked her doubtfully when he saw that she was hesitant.
Lu Xiaoqiao thought that she and Zhou Qizhen had agreed not to announce their marriage certificate to the public, but she should still tell them about the proposal to avoid any other trouble. Even if she told her roommates, they would help her keep it a secret.
"It was Zhou Qizheng who proposed to me!"
"Ah!?" Zhao Jia looked at Lu Xiaoqiao in a daze.
"I agreed! He came to my house to propose on May 1st, and we got married on November 11th."
Zhao Jia was stunned for only a moment, then revealed a look of surprise: "Great! Mr. Zhou finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel!"
Lu Xiaoqiao said a little embarrassedly: "Sister Jia, don't you think we are progressing a little too fast?"
"What the hell! Even Mr. Zhou would think it's too slow!"
Lu Xiaoqiao: “…”
"Oh! Hurry up, order mine again and I'll cancel the order. You treat me today, let's celebrate."
Lu Xiaoqiao blushed and took out her phone to order another one.
While they were eating, the two of them talked about everything that happened during the Chinese New Year, and Lu Xiaoqiao did most of the talking.
Zhao Jia laughed as she listened, and Lu Xiaoqiao recounted to her what happened in the bathroom that morning.
Zhao Jia frowned and asked, "Then why don't you just tell them directly, saying that Mr. Zhou has proposed to you, and let them slap themselves in the face and show off."
At this point, Lu Xiaoqiao said, "By the way, Sister Jia, Zhou Qi and I are about to get married. I would like to ask you to keep it a secret for us. Because of some other reasons, we are not going to make it public for the time being."
Zhao Jia nodded in understanding: "Oh, I understand. Don't worry! Ask me, the president's brother-in-law, to send you more delicious food. I promise that no one can pry open my mouth with pliers."
Lu Xiaoqiao: “…”
The two hurried back after finishing their meal. As soon as they sat down at their workstations, they received a message from Zhou Qizhen.
Z: [Honey, I'm sorry. I just remembered that I forgot to take you to breakfast! Have you eaten lunch? I'll ask Secretary Ding to bring you something to eat.]
Lu Xiaoqiao: [You still know this! /smile/]
Lu Xiaoqiao then sent a picture of the burgers she had for lunch.
Lu Xiaoqiao: [The cafeteria was closed, so Jiajie and I had burgers.]
Z: [Come to my place for lunch from now on! Or I can have someone bring it to you.]
Lu Xiaoqiao: [No, it’s just for a few days, it will be fine after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month! ]
Z: [Did you have enough lunch? ]
Lu Xiaoqiao: [Yeah, it’s very supportive. Don’t let anyone send food over here! ]
Z: [Wife, I may have to go on a business trip for two days. I will arrange for someone to pick you up after get off work. Are you afraid of being alone when I am not at home? ]
Lu Xiaoqiao: [Oh, it’s okay! Just go ahead and do your thing. Have someone send my luggage to my house.]
As soon as Lu Xiaoqiao sent the message, Zhou Qizhen called.
"Hello? Why are you calling?" Lu Xiaoqiao answered the phone and walked out while talking.
"What do you think?" Zhou Qizhen's low and smiling voice came from the other end of the phone.
Lu Xiaoqiao walked to the stairs of the fire escape and stopped: "How would I know?"
"Wife, are you pretending to be confused? You want to separate from me right after we got married and leave me alone?"
Lu Xiaoqiao felt her ears tingling as she listened to Zhou Qizhen's magnetic voice. The two of them had already registered and were legally a couple, so there was really no reason for them to live separately.
A little shy, she used her fingers to pick at the paint on the handrail to ease her nervousness, and after a while she whispered back, "I didn't say I'd leave you alone in this empty room."
