When Lu Xiaoqiao heard the familiar voice, she raised her head suddenly. When she saw who it was, her eyes were full of surprise and disbelief.
She pursed her lips, her nose flared slightly, and her eyes turned red in an instant.
The longing and grievances of these days surged into her heart like a tide, making her nose a little sore.
"Qiao Qiao!" Zhou Qizhen called her again in a low voice.
He then walked forward and wanted to hug her in his arms, but just as he reached the bed, before he could touch her, Zhou Qiyue stopped him with his hand.
"You said you would hug me? You made our Xiao Qiao suffer so much this time. Has our Xiao Qiao forgiven you?"
Zhou Qiyue looked at Lu Xiaoqiao after he finished speaking: "You can't let him off so easily, understand? Have you forgotten what I taught you?"
Lu Xiaoqiao said nothing, but could only look at her pitifully, her red eyes now filled with tears.
Zhou Qiyue couldn't bear to see her like this, so he turned around and snorted at Zhou Qizheng unhappily, "You're lucky!"
After saying this, he and Zhou's father walked out of the ward, leaving the space to the loving young couple.
Before the two people who went out closed the door, Zhou Qizhen couldn't wait to hug Lu Xiaoqiao in his arms.
Zhou Qiyue glanced at her and couldn't help but remind her, "Take it easy. You're pregnant." Then he closed the door completely.
After Zhou Qizheng finished listening to Zhou Qiyue's words, he quickly loosened his hold on her, as if he was afraid of hurting the person in his arms, and asked Lu Xiaoqiao nervously.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Lu Xiaoqiao shook her head. She had just found out she was pregnant and was a little embarrassed to face Zhou Qizhen.
Zhou Qi was bending over, holding her tear-stained face with his hands, and he slowly lowered his head to kiss her lips.
His voice was hoarse and low, and his tone was full of care and guilt: "Qiao Qiao, I'm sorry."
He clearly promised her that he would not let her suffer any grievances after they were together, but he still broke his promise!
Zhou Qi was sitting beside the bed, holding her in his arms: "Why didn't you say anything when you suffered so much injustice?"
Lu Xiaoqiao hugged his waist and buried her head in his chest, not caring about letting her snot and tears fall on his clean white shirt.
Her voice was soft and muffled: "I'm afraid it will interfere with your work, and she's the wife of your uncle whom you respect so much, so I don't want to embarrass you."
Zhou Qizheng tapped her nose lightly with his index finger: "Are you stupid? You are the one who will be with me for the rest of my life. No matter what happens, I will choose to stand by your side. I will not leave you aside and let you suffer just because I respect someone."
After listening to what he said, Lu Xiaoqiao's tears overflowed again, and Zhou Qizhen gently wiped her tears with his thumb.
"Qiao Qiao, next time no matter what happens, tell me first, you will never trouble me, this is your privilege, understand?"
"Yeah." Lu Xiaoqiao hugged his waist tightly.
Zhou Qizheng continued, "You are the only person closest to me. Even if I am gone one day, you will still be the first heir to my wealth."
Hearing this, Lu Xiaoqiao raised her head from his arms and said angrily, "You are not allowed to say such things, and I will not allow you to be away either."
Zhou Qizheng hurriedly coaxed her softly, "Don't say anything, I will be fine. We both have a baby, how could I bear to leave you and the baby, huh?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he reached his big hand into the quilt and touched her belly: "Our baby is quite strong, just don't be naughty and make mommy uncomfortable."
Lu Xiaoqiao said a little embarrassedly: "He is very well behaved. I just had a lot of random thoughts in the past few days and didn't get enough rest."
Zhou Qizheng looked at her and said with some heartache: "It's all my fault. I made Qiaoqiao feel wronged. I will never do that again. Trust me this time, okay?"
"Um."
…
Zhou Qizheng carefully put the sleeping Lu Xiaoqiao down, covered her with a quilt, and kissed her lips lightly before walking out of the ward with light steps.
As soon as he went out, he looked into Zhou Qiyue's teasing expression: "Oh, I didn't realize that Mr. Zhou is quite good at coaxing his wife!"
Ignoring Zhou Qiyue's teasing, Zhou Qi was sitting on the sofa in the outer hall. He raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose: "Where's Dad?"
When Zhou Qiyue mentioned his father, he was speechless. "Don't mention it. Ever since he found out that your wife was pregnant, the old man has been in a state of excitement. Now he's going out to buy food for Xiao Qiao. He can't stop talking. When he comes back later, let the doctor take his blood pressure. It's definitely much higher than usual."
Zhou Qizheng nodded, and then said, "Sister, thank you this time."
Zhou Qiyue glanced at him and said, "Why are you being so polite to me? Xiao Qiao grew up under my watch. This little girl also accompanied our Lin Lin all the way through college."
She paused for a moment, then jokingly said, "If someone hadn't intervened, I would have adopted her as my goddaughter."
Seeing that his brother lowered his head and kept silent because of his teasing, Zhou Qiyue stopped holding him back.
She took out a list from her bag and handed it to him: "Here! This is for you."
Zhou Qizheng took it and asked in confusion. "What?"
Zhou Qiyue had a smile on his face.
"Your wife's ultrasound report and the first photo of your baby. Put that photo away quickly. I didn't dare to take it out just now because Dad was here. If he gets it, you won't even be able to see its shadow."
Zhou Qizhen looked up at her, and then focused all his attention on the ultrasound report and the baby's first photo in his hand.
It is not difficult to see that the usually serious and cold face now has a kind light in the eyes.
Zhou Qiyue couldn't help but speak again: "Zhou Qizheng, I really didn't see it!"
Zhou Qizheng looked up at her: "What?"
Zhou Qiyue raised his chin towards the ultrasound report in his hand and said in a teasing tone: "If I'm not mistaken, the report says that you're two months pregnant, right? It was also two months after you two got your marriage certificate, right? You didn't delay for even a single day!"
Zhou Qizhen was a little embarrassed and didn't say anything.
Zhou Qiyue continued, "She's still a child, and she's about to give birth to your child! I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you didn't even know she was two months pregnant. How can you be her husband? She's young and doesn't understand. You're ten years older than her, so don't you understand either?"
"Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you don't give Xiao Qiao an explanation for this matter, not to mention Xiao Qiao's family, my daughter won't want to recognize you as her uncle."
From the moment Zhou Qizhen learned that Lu Xiaoqiao was pregnant, he felt full of self-blame and fell into extreme regret.
Last night she said she felt uncomfortable all over, which was a strong reaction in the early stages of pregnancy, but he foolishly thought it was just a little girl's behavior and she was acting coquettishly to him, and he didn't take it seriously.
Recalling a few days ago, after the two of them were intimate, she said she had a stomachache...
When Zhou Qizhen thought of this, he fell into extreme panic.
Also, from the day they confirmed their relationship, he had promised her that he would not let her suffer any grievances in terms of family background, but now she secretly endured everything for fear of delaying his work.
