After thinking about it, Su Qingyao nodded slightly.
"Alright, then we'll include you in the list and reserve a room for you."
Upon hearing this, Leng Yue's face lit up with joy, and she clapped her hands, saying, "That's right! I did a rough calculation, and we'll need at least seven or eight rooms!"
Su Qingyao frowned slightly, secretly calculating in her mind. Then she said:
"Seven or eight rooms, that must cost a lot of money, and with this kind of demand, I'm afraid only a large villa would be suitable."
Leng Yue nodded in agreement and asked, "It certainly requires a lot of money. Do you have enough funds on hand?"
Su Qingyao frowned and began to seriously consider her options.
After a moment, he sighed helplessly and said, "The company needs money in many places right now, so I'm worried about the future. We might have to sell this house."
Upon hearing this, Leng Yue paced back and forth in the room, saying as she walked, "I don't think it's a good idea to sell this house. Can you guarantee that you and Lu Shuai will never argue again?"
"If you two ever have a falling out, you can always come back here for a while, right?"
Su Qingyao's face instantly darkened, and she looked at Leng Yue with hostility, her tone carrying a hint of displeasure: "What are you saying? Can't you wish me well for once?"
Seeing that things were not going well, Leng Yue quickly put on a flattering smile: "I'm just preparing for the worst for you, just in case that day really comes."
Seeing Su Qingyao reach for a book beside her, looking like she was about to get angry, Leng Yue quickly waved her hand and said, "Alright, alright, I won't say anything more. You can handle it yourself!"
......
Time quietly moved forward, and the setting sun gradually sank in the west, its warm orange afterglow painting the entire city in a golden hue.
It was time to pick up the children again. Lu Qingzhou smiled and greeted Mu Shaohua before turning to leave.
"Wait a minute..." Mu Shaohua suddenly spoke up.
Lu Qingzhou suddenly stopped and turned around, looking at Mu Shaohua with curiosity. He teased, "What's wrong, wife? Is there anything special you need me to tell you?"
Mu Shaohua slowly stood up from the chair and walked lightly to Lu Qingzhou.
He looked Lu Qingzhou up and down, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. "I'll go with you. I haven't picked up Momo for several days. Otherwise, that little girl will complain about me again."
Lu Qingzhou listened to these words and at first glance, they seemed to make perfect sense. But when his gaze met Mu Shaohua's shrewd eyes, he suddenly realized the truth.
Pshaw! I don't believe you for a second. My wife has a lot of hidden agendas!
My wife is trying to prevent me from hooking up with those young married women.
However, I have done nothing wrong, and it's understandable to put their minds at ease, so I'll just let her be.
Lu Qingzhou did not expose her little scheme.
Mu Shaohua smiled and picked up her bag from the side, affectionately took Lu Qingzhou's arm, and the two stepped out of the office together.
Arriving at the parking area in the basement, Lu Qingzhou gently pressed the key, walked to the passenger seat, and softly opened the car door.
Looking at Mu Shaohua beside him, he smiled gently, with a touch of gentlemanly manners, and said softly, "My dear wife, please get in the car."
Mu Shaohua was slightly taken aback, her eyes filled with surprise and sweetness.
He then leaned closer and gently kissed Lu Qingzhou's cheek.
She said sweetly, "Thank you, husband."
Lu Qingzhou carefully fastened Mu Shaohua's seatbelt, gently closed the car door, and then quickly walked to the driver's side, skillfully started the engine, and completed the action in one smooth motion.
With a deep, rhythmic sound, the car slowly drove towards the exit of the basement.
Just then, a white shadow flashed past in front of them. Lu Qingzhou reacted quickly, turning the steering wheel sharply to the side.
Mu Shaohua was startled by the sudden scene and looked at Lu Qingzhou with a lingering sense of shock: "Honey, was that a puppy or a child? We didn't bump into anything, did we?"
Lu Qingzhou quickly took Mu Shaohua's hand and gently comforted her, "It's okay, don't be afraid. It looked like a little dog that just ran past. You sit still, I'll get out of the car and take a look."
Having said that,
Lu Qingzhou opened the car door, carefully walked around the car from all sides, and then glanced around the surrounding area, but found nothing unusual.
He then got back into the car and said casually, "I just checked, it's fine, there was no impact at all."
Upon hearing this, Mu Shaohua finally relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "That's good, let's go."
Lu Qingzhou started the car again, and everything proceeded smoothly.
Mu Shaohua quietly looked at Lu Qingzhou's profile, recalling his clean and efficient movements when he turned the steering wheel earlier. He was so cool.
"Honey, your driving skills are amazing! If it were me, I probably would have crashed by now."
Lu Qingzhou's lips curled up slightly, a hint of smugness flashing in his eyes.
He looked at Mu Shaohua and said, "My driving skills are alright, I guess. These days everything is automatic, but my old sports car was a manual, and it was so much fun to drive."
Mu Shaohua turned to the side, looking at Lu Qingzhou with tender eyes, her heart filled with happiness. She felt that as long as she was with Lu Qingzhou, no matter what the topic was, she could feel immense joy.
“I don’t really have any particular feelings about driving, so tell me about it.”
Lu Qingzhou saw Mu Shaohua tilting her head, her eyes full of curiosity and anticipation.
She looked at herself quietly, like a young girl in love.
He immediately started talking: "Actually, there's a lot to learn about driving, take manual transmission for example..."
