"I'm afraid if I announce it too early, something unexpected will happen. It doesn't matter to me, but she must be safe."
Li Yuxuan raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and understood in his heart: "Then how did you explain it to others? You are clearly affectionate like a love-brained person, don't let people think that you are like Shen Yi."
Shen Yi next to him said unwillingly: "Hey hey hey! How can you talk like that? Why are you involving me?"
"You're still not willing? You're really not as good as Lao Zhou in this respect."
Zhou Qizhen ignored the bickering between the two and said calmly: "I didn't dare to tell the truth, for fear of scaring her and that she would think too much." How could he bear to tell her about the dark things in the business world that are like battlefields.
Shen Yi frowned: "Will my sister-in-law feel wronged? Don't think that you don't want to make it public."
Zhou Qizheng sighed lightly, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It seems to me that she doesn't want to announce it so early even more than I do."
Li Yuxuan knew that the two had already registered, and he followed Shen Yi and changed his words: "Actually, it's just like that if you think it through. Although my sister-in-law is young, she is very clear-headed. Marriage is a matter between two people. I don't care whether you, an outsider, know it or not."
Zhou Qizheng looked at him and said, "Well, so I want to make it up to her."
"How to make up for it?"
"Please go on the business trip for me! I want to spend two days with my wife."
Li Yuxuan: “…”
"It's not that I won't help you! I really can't do it for you this time. The main reason is that the other party said that they only want to talk to you, so there's nothing I can do even if I go there."
"Mr. Zhou, just go on your business trip without worries. When you get off work in the evening, you can just let my sister-in-law take my car. I'll take her home and it's on my way."
Shen Yi thought that trying to please Momo's friends would only benefit him and not harm him.
Unexpectedly, I heard Zhou Qizheng say, "Stay away from my wife."
…
After get off work in the evening, Lu Xiaoqiao and Zhao Jia went home in the car arranged by Zhou Qizhen.
The driver helped Lu Xiaoqiao move the luggage upstairs before turning around and leaving.
The two of them entered the house, and Zhao Jia sat on the sofa: "Hey! It's so comfortable to have a special car to take me home!"
Lu Xiaoqiao smiled without saying anything, put down her luggage, and quickly picked up Tuanzi who was wagging his tail at her.
"Tuanzi, did you miss me? I feel like I've gained a lot of weight. It seems like you ate a lot of meat during the Chinese New Year!"
Zhao Jia looked at Lu Xiaoqiao holding Tuanzi and then he remembered to ask, "Xiaoqiao, you and Mr. Zhou are getting married, so are you going to continue living here?"
Lu Xiaoqiao sat on the sofa holding Tuanzi in her arms, and held his chin: "Stop! You haven't gotten married yet."
"Ah? Are you planning to make Mr. Zhou a vegetarian? That's too cruel!"
Lu Xiaoqiao blushed and said, "Not really. I usually live with him. I only come back to live with him when he's on a business trip."
Zhao Jia let out a long "oh" and then teased, "That means it's half meat and half vegetarian!"
"Jia Jie, you are such a..."
After playing for a while, they heard a few light knocks on the door.
Zhao Jia was stunned for a moment. Could it be the neighbor across the street?
When he came to the door, he looked through the cat's eyes, then turned to Lu Xiaoqiao and smiled: "Your kitchen is here!"
"ah?"
While Lu Xiaoqiao was stunned, Zhao Jia opened the door and saw the assistant who had served Lu Xiaoqiao several times before said, "Excuse me, is Miss Lu here?"
When Lu Xiaoqiao heard the voice, she got up from the sofa and walked to the door. Seeing that it was the assistant, she asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
The assistant smiled and said, "Hello, Miss Lu, Happy New Year. Mr. Zhou asked me to bring you dinner."
He stepped aside and said to the other person outside, "Put on your shoe covers and don't dirty the floor tiles of Miss Lu's house."
"It's okay, no need to go through so much trouble, just come in!" Lu Xiaoqiao made room for the two of them.
"It's no trouble."
The assistant and another person put several bags of packed dinner on the table: "Miss Lu, do you want to eat now? I'll help you get it out and set it up."
Lu Xiaoqiao waved her hands and said, "Don't be so polite. I can do it myself. I'll wait for my colleague to come back and eat together."
Looking at the bags on the table, it seems like there have been quite a few delivered just like last time. Looking at the time, Momo should be getting off work soon, so it's a good time for us to eat together.
"Okay, oh, by the way, I forgot about the fruit!"
The assistant returned to the door, brought in several boxes of fruit that were outside, and placed them next to the tea table.
"Ms. Lu, there's nothing else. I'll go back first. If you have anything, just call me." After saying that, he handed Lu Xiaoqiao a business card.
Lu Xiaoqiao took it and said, "Okay, thank you for coming all the way here."
"Ms. Lu, you're too polite! This is what we should do."
After seeing off the assistant, Zhao Jia looked at the food on the table and then at the fine fruits packed in gift boxes.
"Why don't you just let me, the president's brother-in-law, live alone! Look, if you come back to live here, we can still have free food and drinks, and I can even get a ride with you and go home comfortably."
"I have no objection. I'll talk to your brother-in-law later." Lu Xiaoqiao said with a smile.
"No, no, no, sister is just joking, hehe!"
The two opened the fruit gift boxes and saw that they contained two boxes of strawberries and a box of cherries. In one of the boxes there was even a watermelon.
Lu Xiaoqiao felt very sweet in her heart. Before going to bed last night, she complained that the quilt was too hot and she wanted to eat watermelon. So today the watermelon was delivered to her!
"Xiao Qiao, look how nice Mr. Zhou is. I am so grateful to you! Can I have a taste of these ping-pong-sized cherries later?"
Lu Xiaoqiao suppressed her laughter and said, "I now seriously suspect that Zhou Qizhen didn't buy it for me. He just wanted to bribe you to help him keep an eye on me."
"Of course I will. Starting today, I will get up several times in the middle of the night to help Mr. Zhou keep an eye on you."
"What are you looking at me for? Are there any male mosquitoes beside my bed?"
"Hahaha!"
The two of them were laughing happily when they heard cursing sounds coming from outside the door.
The two looked at each other, and Lu Xiaoqiao said, "It sounds like my brother-in-law's voice!"
Zhao Jia stood up suddenly: "That's him! Damn it! We're done for! Those three cannonballs are really coming!"
She said and walked towards the door.
"Ah? What's wrong, Sister Jia?" Lu Xiaoqiao also quickly followed.
When Zhao Jia opened the door, he saw Zhao Zhizhi talking sweetly to the iron gate of the neighbor's house opposite. Qin Momo pulled back Zhao Zhizhi who was about to knock on the door.
Zhao Jia went up and kicked him: "Zhao Zhizhi, what are you doing? You'll disturb the neighbors!"
Zhao Zhizhi did not react to being kicked, and continued to point at the family opposite and shouted: "Mr. Shen, if you have the guts, come out here. Why are you running to the opposite house? How dare you? How can you be so shameless, you idiot..."
"Zhao Zhizhi, don't be like this. He really didn't mean that. It's possible that he just bought the house here by coincidence." Qin Momo held Zhao Zhizhi tightly, fearing that he would really rush over and knock on the door.
Just as the few people were in a stalemate, clear footsteps were heard coming upstairs from downstairs.
