"Uncle! Good morning!" Zhou Qizhen greeted Lu's father with a smile.
Father Lu glanced at him and asked, "Are you up?"
"Yeah." Zhou Qizhen smiled awkwardly.
"Hurry up and wash your face, your aunt will be ready for breakfast soon!"
Father Lu was about to open the door and leave, but after thinking for a moment, he turned to Zhou Qizhen and said, "Oh, by the way! Did you change the windshield washer fluid when you drove the car here? The Northeast is not like you in the South. You can't use your windshield washer fluid here. It will freeze."
Zhou Qizheng was a little flattered by Mr. Lu's concern and said to him, "Thank you, uncle. My secretary reminded me to change the windshield washer fluid to antifreeze."
Father Lu was stunned when he heard this: "Secretary? You still have a secretary?"
"In that case, your small company is quite legitimate. Well, young people, just work hard. It's a good thing to keep a low profile."
Zhou Qizheng: “…”
A look of satisfaction flashed across Father Lu's eyes, and Zhou Qizhen didn't know whether he should explain it for a moment! Xiao Qiao was not by his side, so he didn't dare to say more.
"Yes, I understand, uncle."
"Okay, go ahead!"
At this time, Lu's mother came in with a small basin in her hand. Seeing Zhou Qi Zheng, she smiled and said, "Qi Zheng is up? Go wash your face quickly. I bought you some freshly ground soy milk. It's ground from the tofu shop in the village. Xiao Qiao loved to drink this when she was little. She said it tasted stronger than the ones sold outside."
"Thank you, Auntie." Zhou Qizhen replied politely.
"Why is this kid always being polite? Go wash up quickly. I'll ask Xiao Qiao to get up too."
…
As it was snowing heavily outside, Zhou Qizhen and Lu Xiaoqiao gave up their plan to go into the city for safety reasons.
The two of them stayed at home for a day, playing Go with their little nephew.
Before going to bed in the evening, Lu Xiaoqiao thought for a while and reminded Zhou Qizhen.
"We Northeasterners are quite hospitable. We are going to my grandmother's house tomorrow. Please don't be scared or surprised by the hospitality of our relatives."
Zhou Qizheng looked at her uneasy expression and found it funny. He said meaningfully, "Why? Can your relatives eat me? Don't worry! I can handle it."
Zhou Qizhen is very excited about attending the birthday banquet tomorrow. This is his first time attending Lu Xiaoqiao's family banquet as her boyfriend, so how can he not be excited.
"Qiao Qiao, which outfit do you think is suitable for me to wear?"
Lu Xiaoqiao glanced at the two sets of clothes he placed on the kang. Apart from the difference in the color of the shirts, one darker and one lighter, she really couldn't tell any other difference.
"Wear whatever is thicker! There will be a lot of people coming in and out tomorrow, and the door won't be able to close. It will definitely be very cold."
He reached out and touched the shirt fabric, frowning: "It's too thin. Wear this light-colored shirt tomorrow, and pair it with a cashmere pullover. I see you have one in your suitcase. Wear a down jacket on the outside, and that's about it!"
Zhou Qizheng nodded and said, "Okay."
Lu Xiaoqiao glanced at his legs and asked him casually, "You haven't put on your autumn pants yet?"
Zhou Qizheng smiled playfully: "How about you check it out?"
Lu Xiaoqiao curled her lips, then patted his leg playfully.
"How dare you be so presumptuous in my house? Aren't you afraid that my dad will break your legs?"
Zhou Qi was hugging her and lowered his voice: "Qiao Qiao, are you willing to let go?"
Lu Xiaoqiao knew that he wanted to kiss her again, but she was still a little embarrassed to be intimate with him in her own home, so she quickly reached out and pushed him away: "Go to bed quickly, don't get up late tomorrow again."
After Lu Xiaoqiao finished speaking, she ran away like a rabbit.
…
The next morning.
The whole family packed up and prepared to leave for Lu's mother's home.
Since they were not in the same village, they still had to drive over. Zhou Qizhen's car was too eye-catching, so Lu Xiaoqiao was not prepared to let him drive. Also, it had just snowed, and she was afraid that Zhou Qizhen, who had never driven on snow, would not be able to master the skills.
Lu Xiaodong has a mobility scooter, but it can only seat five people, including himself.
There were just two extra people, and Lu Xiaoqiao said that she and Zhou Qi were waiting to be picked up by her brother after he had sent them off.
After the family of five drove a long way away, Lu Xiaoqiao brought Zhou Qizheng back to the house to wait.
Zhou Qizheng asked casually, "How far is grandma's house from here? How long will it take for big brother to come back?"
Lu Xiaoqiao thought for a moment and said, "Including the round trip, it will probably take more than half an hour!"
Zhou Qizheng's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he followed her into the house in silence.
To enter the main house, one had to pass by Lu Xiaoqiao's room first. Just as she was about to move forward, she was grabbed by Zhou Qizhen.
Then, he pushed open the door of her room, turned around, closed the door, and covered her lips. His movements were clean and neat, without any hesitation, as if he had rehearsed it thousands of times in his mind.
Zhou Qi was kissing her aggressively. Lu Xiaoqiao pushed him away but didn't push him away. Instead, she took the opportunity when he was kissing her neck to remind him not to leave any marks.
Zhou Qizhen nodded in a muffled voice and continued.
Lu Xiaodong sent the whole family to the destination. When everyone got off the car, Liu Man found that she had not brought the red envelope she had given to her grandma, so she returned with Lu Xiaodong's car.
When they arrived at Lu's house, Lu Xiaodong said he would not get out of the car, and asked Liu Man to wait until she got her wallet and call Lu Xiaoqiao and the others.
When Liu Man took the things and wanted to call for help, she found no one in the house. When she was wondering where the two people had gone, she saw her sister-in-law's door open from the inside.
The two people who had just disappeared walked out one after the other.
The moment she saw Liu Man, Lu Xiaoqiao's cheeks turned red. Liu Man glanced at the two's embarrassed expressions and the obvious changes in her sister-in-law's lips. She was silent and said nothing, only telling them that the car had arrived!
After driving all the way to the destination and just about to get off the car, Zhou Qizhen received a call from the overseas branch.
People in foreign countries still follow local customs, so there is no normal work during the New Year holiday.
Lu Xiaoqiao asked him to make a phone call in the car, and got out of the car with her brother and sister-in-law first. Liu Man asked Lu Xiaodong to go in first, and she stayed to accompany her sister-in-law to wait for her boyfriend.
At this time, guests were arriving one after another! Liu Man pulled Lu Xiaoqiao to a deserted corner, thought for a while, and finally spoke.
"What exactly does your target do?"
I heard from Lu Xiaodong that the car he drove was worth nearly 8 million, and he was generous in buying gifts for his family. He is definitely not an ordinary person. And now, why is the phone call he is receiving in the car all in English? I am afraid that he is not doing a legitimate business, and I am worried that my sister-in-law has been deceived.
Lu Xiaoqiao noticed Liu Man's tangled expression and said with some amusement: "Sister-in-law, you misunderstood! I don't know how to tell you that he really doesn't just run a small company..."
Lu Xiaoqiao briefly explained Zhou Qizhen's situation, and Liu Man was stunned for a long time after listening to the whole thing.
Only a few key words kept resonating in my mind: listed company, group president.
Aren’t these lines from idol dramas?
