Chapter 52 Dating Doesn’t Necessarily Lead to Marriage
The next day, the atmosphere at the dinner table was a little too quiet.
Although the Zhou family had no rule of not talking while eating or sleeping, the atmosphere was almost freezing.
Whether it was Zhou Siyu or Zhou Zimo, their eyes almost uncontrollably glanced at the bite mark on Zhou Chen's lip.
Especially Mr. Zhou, his face was so dark that ink seemed to be dripping out.
Aunt Hong brought the egg tarts from the kitchen to the dining table, glanced quickly at Zhou Chen, and when she turned around, she glanced at Xu Ge who was leisurely and contented.
Zhou Chen glanced over indifferently, and when Aunt Hong met his gaze, she quickly withdrew her gaze and turned back to the kitchen.
In the end, Zhou Siyu couldn't help but ask directly.
"Uncle, why is your mouth broken?"
It was clearly fine when I left last night, and it’s obvious that it was bitten by a woman, right?
I couldn't help but think of Chi Yan's gentle appearance, but my heart was extremely shocked.
Could such a docile woman be kissed so passionately?
Zhou Zimo didn't know why, but his eyes fell on Xu Ge's face.
Seeing her natural and calm expression, perhaps she felt his gaze, she looked up and smiled at him, speaking silently.
"Eat quickly."
Zhou Zimo curled the corners of his lips, his eyes fell on her lips, and then he looked away for a brief second.
In fact, when Xu Ge took the first sip of hot porridge, she felt pain at the root of her tongue.
But she didn't show it at all.
She even couldn't help but think that if Zhou Chen had bitten the corner of her lip in revenge last night, this morning would have been even more exciting.
She turned her head to look at Zhou Chen, who was calm, and said softly with the corners of her lips slightly raised.
"Siyu, don't you know how your uncle's mouth got broken?"
Zhou Siyu was choked by her, glared at her and gritted her teeth and said, "Why, you are very experienced? You know everything."
Xu Ge shrugged. "Even if you haven't eaten pork, have you seen a pig run?"
Besides, she had eaten it more than once...
Zhou Chen seemed to be able to read the unspoken words deep in her heart, and he tilted his head slightly to meet her eyes.
Xu Ge was stunned for a second, then turned his head, picked up a hot egg tart and started eating.
Seeing Aunt Hong coming out, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Aunt Hong, the egg tarts you make are still as delicious as before."
Aunt Hong seemed to be frozen, but she still smiled at her, "If it tastes good, eat more."
Xu Ge just raised her eyebrows when she saw this, but she was a little confused, but she didn't care.
It should be said that in this family, among everyone at the table at this moment, the one she cares about most is Zhou Zimo.
She held the egg tart in her left hand and ate it slowly, while supporting her chin with her right hand and looking at Zhou Zimo.
Her investigation was about to begin in earnest, and she had already wasted many days.
Zhou Siyu naturally noticed it as well. Thinking of what happened last night, her face suddenly turned ugly. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but after glancing at the old man sitting in the main seat, she swallowed it back.
But his expression was one of disgust as he glared at her several times.
It’s not that Xu Ge didn’t see it, it’s just that she didn’t care.
At this time, Mr. Zhou finally spoke.
"Even if she had an accident because of you, you've taken care of her for so many years, isn't that okay?"
After hearing this, Xu Ge lowered his eyes and picked up the milk to take a sip.
To be honest
She didn't feel guilty or indebted.
After all, she is upright and has nothing to fear. Even though she liked Zhou Chen before, she just kept it to herself and it was her own business.
It's just that I feel a little regretful when I think of a woman like Chi Yan who is outstanding in everything.
"Don't think I don't know how much you've helped the Chi family behind the scenes over the years. Without you and the Zhou family, the Chi family would have collapsed long ago. Do you really want to sacrifice your entire life for this?"
Upon hearing this, the brother and sister couldn't help but look at Zhou Chen.
His expression was calm and indifferent, as if he didn't hear those words.
Mr. Zhou's face suddenly turned cold and he slammed the table hard.
"Zhou Chen, I'm talking to you!"
Zhou Chen then put down the cutlery in his hand, picked up the napkin and slowly wiped the corner of his mouth before looking at the old man.
"Dating doesn't necessarily mean marriage, so why do you have to do this?"
This sounded a bit mean. Xu Ge couldn't help but turn his head to look at him, but his eyes were a little more scrutinizing and sharp, as if he wanted to confirm whether what he said was true or false.
Seeing this, Zhou Chen just glanced at her indifferently.
Old Master Zhou's tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed, and he narrowed his eyes, staring sharply at his unfathomable youngest son.
"Isn't it because of her that you haven't found a girlfriend in all these years?"
Zhou Chen only said two words, "No."
Grandpa Zhou's expression finally brightened up. "I don't care what your relationship with Xiaoyan is. No matter what people say, your future marriage partner must be someone I approve of. Ah Chen, you should understand this."
Zhou Chen just curled the corners of his lips slightly, stood up and left without saying anything.
Xu Ge also clapped his hands, picked up a wet wipe to wipe his hands, and glanced at Zhou Zimo.
Zhou Zimo also put down his cutlery, "Grandpa, then Ge'er and I will go to the company too."
Mr. Zhou nodded, glanced at Xu Ge and said: "This is Ge'er's first time going to the company, how can you
Take her under your wing, let her get familiar with the company, and let the people in the company get to know her."
Zhou Siyu's face fell when she heard this, but her eyes lit up again when she thought of something.
Instead, Zhou Zimo frowned and was about to say something when Xu Ge spoke first.
"Grandpa, I didn't leave in a very glorious way back then. There's no need to make a big fuss when I come back this time. I don't want people around me to look at me with tinted glasses, okay?"
Mr. Zhou seemed very pleased. He nodded and said with satisfaction.
"Okay, grandpa will listen to you." After saying that, he looked at Zhou Siyu again.
"Learn from your sister."
Zhou Siyu gritted her teeth, glared at Xu Ge angrily, snorted coldly, turned around and went upstairs.
She couldn't stay there any longer, she was afraid she couldn't control her mouth!
"Then grandpa, we'll leave first."
Mr. Zhou waved his hand with satisfaction and said, "Go slowly on the road."
"I understand, Grandpa."
After getting in the car, Xu Ge fastened his seat belt and then held his chin and stared at Zhou Zimo.
Zhou Zimo was probably in a good mood. He smiled at her gently and raised his hand to tuck the hair off her cheek.
"Why are you staring at me like that?"
Xu Ge wrinkled his nose, "Why do I feel weird today?"
"Strange? What's strange about it?"
"It's all quite strange..."
Zhou Zimo smiled and asked, "Give me an example?"
"Well, Siyu, she secretly glared at me several times today, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated, and she spoke less than usual."
A smile flashed in Zhou Zimo's eyes, "I told her last night."
Xu Ge raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at him intently, "Hmm?"
Zhou Zimo also stared at her closely, "I told her I like you and asked her to treat you better. I would be very sad if you were wronged."
Xu Ge paused for a few seconds and then couldn't help laughing, leaning his head back on the seat.
"No wonder you didn't tell me..." She curved her eyebrows and looked cunning.
"I really like the way she hates me but can't do anything about it, haha...
