Lu Xiaoqiao just noticed that he was wearing a tie today, which he rarely wore normally.
Seeing that he was already walking towards her, Lu Xiaoqiao felt that she was a little crazy for having the leisure to look at the trivial matter of whether he was wearing a tie or not.
Zhou Qizheng reached out and hugged her in his arms, burying his head in her shoulders.
Lu Xiaoqiao whispered, "I don't want to watch the movie." Her two previous experiences of watching movies told her that it was actually worth not watching this movie.
Zhou Qi was stunned for a moment, then understood what she meant. He chuckled and hugged her tighter. After a moment, he said, "Well, I know. I don't want to watch the movie. I just want to hug you. I miss you."
Lu Xiaoqiao was confused by his words of weakness.
It was this sentence that made her more certain of a classic saying: A man must keep his word, even a sow can climb a tree.
Finally, the good news is that I saved 3,600 yuan, but the bad news is... my mouth is swollen again!
Lu Xiaoqiao was disgusted with Zhou Qizheng's lack of tenderness in this regard, and he repeatedly promised that he would never lose control like this again.
…
Christmas Eve came in a blink of an eye.
Lu Xiaoqiao celebrates her lunar birthday every year. This year, her birthday falls on Christmas, which is tomorrow.
Zhou Qizhen was on a business trip a few days ago and promised Lu Xiaoqiao that he would rush back today to spend Christmas Eve and her birthday with her.
But when it was almost time to clock out, his plane had not taken off yet due to weather conditions.
Colleagues in the office who have boyfriends are all immersed in happiness, with sweet smiles on their faces, looking forward to a date after get off work tonight.
There was a hint of disappointment in Lu Xiaoqiao's eyes, but she quickly regained her senses and realized that he couldn't come back because he was busy with work and the weather was bad. She seemed a little bit spoiled for being so disappointed.
After figuring this out, I sorted out my emotions, cleared the things on my desk, and prepared to leave work.
Lin Lin hadn't left yet either. Seeing that Lu Xiaoqiao was getting ready to get off work, she hurriedly turned off her computer and said to Lu Xiaoqiao while operating it, "Xiaoqiao, today is Christmas Eve, why don't you come to my house! We can spend it together. Those who have boyfriends are all out on dates, and we're the only two singles with no one to date."
Lu Xiaoqiao is now thankful that Lin Lin doesn't usually communicate with Li Na, Zheng Yan and the others, otherwise she would definitely not be able to hide her love affair. She hasn't figured out how to confess this to Lin Lin yet.
"No need. I don't know when Jiajie and the others will be back. If I don't go back, Tuanzi won't have dinner."
"How about you take the dumplings and bring them to my house?"
"No, that's too much trouble. Besides, the time you have to spend on the trip is wasted in traffic jams. You should hurry back, because the road you take to go home will definitely be jammed."
After finding a reason to reject Lin Lin, Lu Xiaoqiao returned home alone.
On the way home, she received a call from Zhou Qizhen and learned that he had already boarded the plane. She looked at the time and knew in her heart that he would not be able to come back tonight.
At around nine o'clock in the evening, Lu Xiaoqiao's cell phone rang. The caller ID showed "Secretary Ding". She was a little surprised.
He should be on the plane at the same time as Zhou Qizhen, so why would he call her at this time?
"Hello?"
"Ms. Lu! Are you home now?"
Even though they were on the phone, Lu Xiaoqiao could still detect a hint of excitement in his tone.
Lu Xiaoqiao said hesitantly, "Yes, what's the matter?"
"Then hurry downstairs. Mr. Zhou asked me to take you to a place."
"Are you the real Secretary Ding? Are you a liar?"
Secretary Ding: “…”
Finally, after hearing Secretary Ding's self-affirmation, Lu Xiaoqiao reluctantly believed it.
After going downstairs, I saw that he was driving the same car that Zhou Qizhen usually drove, and I felt completely relieved.
During the drive, Lu Xiaoqiao once again confirmed where they were going. Secretary Ding just smiled and said, "We're almost there!"
When the car drove to the underground parking lot of Yujing No. 1, Lu Xiaoqiao was stunned for a moment, glanced at Secretary Ding, and asked in a moment: "What are you doing at his house? Is your President Zhou back?"
When Secretary Ding heard this, his expression was shocked at first, and then his eyes were instantly filled with gossip. From what he heard from the boss's wife, it was obvious that she had been to the boss's house.
Moreover, he was so familiar with the parking lot, he must have been here more than once.
"Ms. Lu, Mr. Zhou said he would come back as soon as possible. The gift he sent you is at his home. Before the business trip, Mr. Zhou said that the journey was too long and he was afraid that something unexpected would happen during the trip, so he sent me back a day earlier to arrange everything."
What does it mean that the boss entrusted him with such an important task? It means that he trusts him! This is more exciting than receiving an award for outstanding employee.
After hearing this, Lu Xiaoqiao was touched by Zhou Qizheng's thoughtfulness and consideration for her. It seemed that he had arranged everything before he left in order to celebrate her birthday: "Is that so? Thank you for your hard work, Secretary Ding."
Secretary Ding shook his head quickly: "It's not hard, it's not hard, Miss Lu, you are too polite!" He was so happy to be able to serve the future boss lady.
If the future boss lady is happy, the boss will be happy, and if the boss is happy, he will be happy.
His only worry now is that he knows all the gossip about his boss, but he can't share it with anyone, which makes him feel very uncomfortable.
The two took the elevator into the room.
Secretary Ding asked Lu Xiaoqiao to sit on the sofa in the living room, then turned around and brought over the fruit snacks that had been prepared earlier.
"Ms. Lu, please sit here and wait for Mr. Zhou. He is on his way back. Oh! By the way, Mr. Zhou has a home theater. If you feel bored, you can go there and watch a movie while waiting for him."
When Lu Xiaoqiao heard the words "home theater", she shook her head hastily and rejected his kindness.
I really don't know whether his suggestion is well-intentioned or just a benefit for their boss.
"Oh, Miss Lu doesn't like watching movies! It doesn't matter, you can wait here and watch some short videos. If your phone is out of battery, I have prepared a charger for you. You can charge it here."
Ever since Lu Xiaoqiao came in, Secretary Ding has never let himself stop and has taken every aspect into consideration.
"Thank you, Secretary Ding, for keeping you from getting any rest on Christmas Eve."
Secretary Ding waved his hand and said, "Miss Lu, you really don't have to be so polite.
But I was thinking in my heart: If I am satisfied, I can just ask Mr. Zhou to give me a five-star review.
Lu Xiaoqiao was also a worker, so how could she not know what he was thinking? She suppressed her laughter and said, "When your CEO Zhou comes back later, I will ask Secretary Ding to say a few good words about him."
"Thank you, Miss Lu." Secretary Ding grinned, almost bending down to thank her! I didn't expect the future boss's wife to be so considerate of the employees, much better than the boss.
After Secretary Ding left, Lu Xiaoqiao sat alone on the sofa playing with her phone. When she was almost sleepy, she heard a "beep" sound from the combination lock outside the door, followed by the sound of the door opening.
Lu Xiaoqiao raised her eyes, which were hazily covered with mist, and looked towards the door.
