Lu Xiaoqiao blinked her moist eyes and said, "Didn't you say you would wait until May Day to make it public?"
Zhou Qizheng raised his lips and said softly, "We can wait, but our baby can't."
Lu Xiaoqiao finished the last mouthful of porridge and asked, "What do you mean?"
Zhou Qizheng cleared away the tableware she had used to finish her meal and wiped her hands with a wet towel. "It will be very inconvenient when the month is late. You won't be able to wear a wedding dress then. Yesterday, I discussed with my father and sister. After the Qingming Festival, I will go to your house to propose marriage and hold the wedding when I come back. In other words, we will announce it a few days in advance. After the announcement, I will do some things for you, which will be more legitimate."
Lu Xiaoqiao's mind was only on the date of the marriage proposal. She was a little surprised and said, "Proposing after Qingming Festival? Doesn't that mean you have to come to my house this week?"
"Yes, that's why I'm sending you to the old house today to stay for a few days. I have something else to do before you leave. I'm worried about leaving you alone at home."
Lu Xiaoqiao nodded: "Just do your thing, Lin Lin will be with me."
Zhou Qizhen heard this, bent his waist slightly, put his hands on her sides, trapped her on the bed, and asked her with some playfulness.
"What? You don't even want your husband now that you have Lin Lin, huh?"
After saying that, he kissed her lips several times.
Lu Xiaoqiao whispered "no" and then smiled and avoided him. The more she avoided, the more Zhou Qizhen kissed her.
The two of them were being so affectionate here that they didn't notice the people coming in from outside the ward.
Knowing that Lu Xiaoqiao was discharged from the hospital today, the whole family of the old house came to pick her up. Even Lin Ziyang and Lin Lin, who had just returned from a business trip, took leave to come and welcome her home.
When the family came in, they saw this "eye-catching" scene in the ward.
Zhou Qiyue coughed lightly and said, "Zhou Qizheng, can you please be more careful? This is a hospital. Can't you just wait until you get home?"
Lu Xiaoqiao shyly pushed Zhou Qizhen away, and the latter just stood up calmly and said "I'm here" to everyone as a greeting.
Lu Xiaoqiao was somewhat flattered that her whole family came to pick her up from the hospital: "Why is everyone here?"
Lin Lin smiled and took her arm, "You are now the key protected person in our family, a great contributor." As she said this, she reached out and touched Lu Xiaoqiao's belly.
After staying for a while and waiting for the attending physician to come to work and completing the discharge procedures, everyone drove back to the Zhou family's old house.
…
Zhou family’s old house.
When Lu Xiaoqiao got out of the car and saw the scene in the yard, she was stunned for a moment!
The two trees next to the place where Zhou Qizhen used to park his car were gone, and the flowers and plants that Zhou's father had raised were also cleared away. Now the place was covered with green lawns.
Lin Lin leaned over to Lu Xiaoqiao's ear and whispered, "These are all prepared by my grandpa for my brother and sister. The amusement facilities will arrive tomorrow."
Lu Xiaoqiao said in disbelief: "It's a bit too early!"
Lin Lin had a calm expression on her face, as if she was used to such "big occasions". "This is nothing. You haven't even entered the study yet, and the desk and brushes you need to teach your child to write are already prepared."
Lu Xiaoqiao: “…”
From the moment Lu Xiaoqiao entered the door, Zhou's father was busy like a top, going in and out of the kitchen and asking her what she wanted to eat.
Zhou Qiyue couldn't bear to watch it anymore, and said helplessly to his father: "Dad! Stop working so hard, let Xiao Qiao rest first. If you force her to eat too much, your grandson won't grow up all of a sudden."
Father Zhou responded and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, you can't eat too much at once. Then Xiao Qiao, tell dad what you want to eat and I will buy it for you."
Seeing that Father Zhou no longer forced her to eat all at once, Lu Xiaoqiao finally felt relieved and said with a smile, "Okay, I got it, Dad. I'll tell you what I want to eat."
When Zhou Qiyue came back from abroad, he brought a gift to Lu Xiaoqiao: "I know you like painting, so I asked a friend to buy you a set of paints. There are several very rare colors in it. Open them and see if you like them."
Lu Xiaoqiao has loved painting since she was a child, but because art students were not affordable for ordinary families, she gave up this major and later only used it as a hobby.
Even though she earned money from work, she still couldn't afford to buy a good set of paints. Zhou Qiyue's gift really touched her heart.
"Thank you, sister. I like it very much."
Zhou Qiyue smiled and replied, "Don't be polite, sister. But you are pregnant now, so it is better to avoid using these pigments. If you want to kill time painting, I will buy you some safer ones in a few days that pregnant women can also use."
Lu Xiaoqiao nodded with a smile.
Zhou Qizhen's eyes fell on Lu Xiaoqiao, and saw her sitting peacefully on the sofa, chatting and laughing with everyone. It could be seen that the bright and moving smile was a happiness from the heart.
Only when she is truly happy will he be filled with a heartfelt sense of happiness.
"Qiao Qiao, I'm going to the company first and will be back in the evening."
Lu Xiaoqiao waved at him without even turning her head: "Oh, I see, go ahead!"
Zhou Qizhen raised his eyebrows, it seemed that he was really not needed anymore. He sighed lightly, then turned around and returned to the company with Lin Ziyang.
…
The first thing Zhou Qizhen did when he arrived at the company was to call Li Yuxuan to his office.
Li Yuxuan thought that he asked him to come over to report the progress and results after he came back two days ago.
As a result, before he could say anything, Zhou Qizhen spoke first.
"How about two people assigned to your department?"
Li Yuxuan asked doubtfully, "What happened? I just arranged for them to meet up, and you called me to Shenzhen. I haven't been able to observe them much yet. I'll observe more when I get back."
Zhou Qizheng put the signed documents aside and said coldly: "No need to observe. I mean to see whether the two of them have completed the formal procedures. If not, tell them to leave. If they have, then collectively notify them to expel them!"
Li Yuxuan couldn't help but ask him: "Ah? Why? Isn't she your cousin?"
Zhou Qizheng threw the signature pen onto the table with a "bang", his eyes full of coldness.
"No matter who it is, if they want to spread rumors about me, they can't do that."
"You mean the marriage? I heard about it when I first arrived at the company. I don't know what stupid idea they came up with. Not only is it unstable, but it also brings trouble upon itself. How are you going to explain this to your uncle?"
Zhou Qizheng lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then spoke: "I will personally tell my uncle that I can't let the two of them stay here with Jiang Heng any longer. No matter what, even if my uncle disagrees, I can't back down this time."
Li Yuxuan raised his eyebrows: "It can't be just because of gossip, right? Is there something else I don't know?"
Based on his understanding of his friends, there are very few people he respects, and Zhao Jiangang is one of them.
It seems that the only thing that could make his best friend not hesitate to "offend" the person he has always respected is Lu Xiaoqiao, the scale on his body!
