Chapter 192: Aside from getting the marriage certificate, nothing else was a surprise.
Before Xu Si'an went on his business trip, they had inexhaustible energy every night.
Qiao Xu was terrified.
After all, Xu Si'an would take her crazy every night.
I felt relieved after consulting a doctor.
Qiao Xu couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "This child is really lucky to be alive."
Back at the villa, Qiao Xu sat on the sofa for a long time, while Cherry just obediently lay at her feet.
Qiao Xu rubbed Yingtao's head.
"Cherry, did you already know I was pregnant?"
During this time, Cherry didn't bother her and was always very well-behaved when she was by her side.
Even when I wake her up in the morning, she doesn't jump onto the bed like she used to.
Qiao Xu hugged Cherry and shared the joy, her eyes reddening as she spoke: "Cherry, your dad will be so happy to know, our Cherry is going to be a big sister."
Cherry rubbed against Qiao Xu's palm.
Three days later, late at night, the bedroom door was pushed open.
Cherry, who was sleeping on the chaise lounge at the foot of the bed, suddenly sat up and stared warily at the door.
Qiao Xu slept soundly after becoming pregnant.
Moreover, she didn't expect Xu Si'an to come back early.
Upon seeing that it was her father, Cherry lazily lay back down on the chaise lounge.
Xu Si'an gently rubbed its head before leaving the room and going to the study to take a shower.
After lifting the blanket, he carefully pulled Qiao Xu into his arms.
Qiao Xu instinctively hugged his waist: "A Si, I'm so happy."
Xu Si'an thought he had woken her up.
Looking down and seeing clearly, he realized she was dreaming. He kissed her cheek and chuckled, "You're so happy I'm not home?"
"You heartless bastard, you didn't even miss me after being gone for so many days."
"I thought you would sneak up on me like before."
After waiting for more than ten days, no one showed up.
These past few days have been even worse; they've stopped answering his calls and video calls altogether.
If A-Yi hadn't been certain that Qiao Xu was perfectly fine, he would have suspected that something had happened to her.
The next morning, Qiao Xu was startled when she opened her eyes.
Xu Si'an was fast asleep, his face showing obvious signs of fatigue.
It's obvious that he hasn't slept well during his two-week business trip.
She carefully got out of bed after lifting the covers, when suddenly an arm came across her waist.
"Baby, where do we want to go?"
Xu Si'an's voice was low and hoarse, with a lazy, sleepy quality.
"There's no morning meeting today, so you don't need to go to the company so early. Stay with me and sleep a little longer."
The arm around her waist tightened, startling Qiao Xu. She quickly grabbed his palm and pulled it away slightly.
He pressed his cheek against her lower back: "Hmm? You won't let me hug you?"
Qiao Xu turned around and kissed him on the cheek: "No, I have something to do today."
Xu Si'an pulled her into his arms: "Yes, sleeping with me is important. Be good, you haven't been sleeping well lately, sleep with me a little longer."
Qiao Xu was silent for a while: "Then let go of me first. It hurts when you hold my stomach like this."
The man kept his eyes closed the whole time, gently rubbing her lower abdomen with his palm.
"Has your period started?"
"Does it hurt a lot?"
Qiao Xu looked down at his closed eyes: "No."
"I really have something to do."
Qiao Xu whispered in his ear, "Didn't you want me to propose to you? I'll go buy flowers."
Xu Si'an opened his eyes, and there were still traces of bloodshot veins in his eyes.
"No need to buy it. You ask me if I'm willing to marry you, I say yes, and then we'll go get our marriage certificate."
Qiao Xu: ·······
"Stop messing around, I really have something to do."
"You go to sleep quietly. I'm going out to run some errands. I'll call you later and you can come find me. I have a surprise for you."
Xu Si'an didn't seem to be fooled: "Apart from being asked to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the marriage certificate, nothing else was a surprise."
Qiao Xu: ······
"Xu Si'an, let go of my hand, I'm getting angry."
Xu Si'an pulled his arm back and leaned lazily against the headboard to wake himself up: "Where are you going? I'll take you there."
Qiao Xu pressed him back onto the bed.
"No need, I'll drive myself. You can continue sleeping."
"Her eyes are all red, she looks ugly."
Xu Si'an was afraid that Qiao Xu would be angry, but he couldn't do anything about it, so he could only repeatedly tell her to remember to call him.
After Qiao Xu left, Xu Si'an lay down in the spot where she had slept, inhaling her lingering scent as he fell asleep.
The phone on the bedside table vibrated, and Xu Si'an opened his eyes and sat up.
"Baby."
"Ah Si, I'll send you an address. Could you please bring the white box from my dressing table over here?"
"Don't open it."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Si'an got out of bed and found the box Qiao Xu had mentioned in the dressing table.
After washing up, I saw the address Qiao Xu sent and was stunned for a few seconds.
University?
He wasn't wearing a suit; he was dressed casually in trousers and a white shirt, exuding a mix of seriousness and wildness.
Xu Si'an's heart was beating very fast.
My gut tells me that the long-awaited proposal is finally coming, right?
An hour later, the car stopped behind the university gate.
Xu Si'an then realized that today was the graduation ceremony.
The roadside stalls were all kinds of things, with flowers and balloons, just like the day they graduated six years ago.
Xu Si'an inexplicably bought eleven heart-shaped balloons.
He called Qiao Xu, but she didn't answer.
Xu Si'an frowned slightly and quickened his pace as he walked into the campus.
He was handsome, and he attracted countless eyes as soon as he entered the school gate.
Many recent female graduates stared in disbelief.
Everyone was envious, wondering whose boyfriend was so romantic as to buy a bunch of balloons.
It's true what they say, handsome and emotionally intelligent boyfriends always belong to other people.
Unable to find anyone, Xu Si'an began to panic.
Qiao Xu sent him a photo, and Xu Si'an turned and walked in another direction.
That was the place where they first kissed after they started dating.
The graduation ceremony at Jiushang University was a lively affair, with people taking photos everywhere.
He spotted his Qiaoqiao in the crowd at a glance.
Upon seeing the dress she was wearing, Xu Si'an's eyes narrowed, and memories flooded back.
That is...
The vintage floral dress she wore when she broke up with herself six years ago.
He gave her the dress that day because he wanted to propose to her.
Amidst the comings and goings of people, Qiao Xu also spotted her young man in the sea of people.
This time, she stood still and waved to him.
Xu Si'an dragged his heavy steps forward.
He looked dazed and even bumped into someone passing by, almost losing his grip on the balloon.
It was only a dozen steps, but Xu Si'an took a long time to walk it.
Qiao Xu noticed his pale expression.
I reached out to touch his forehead; it was icy cold despite the sweltering heat.
"Ah Si, what's wrong?"
Are you feeling unwell?
Xu Si'an removed her hand from his forehead: "No, it was just that I was thinking about six years ago..."
Qiao Xu covered his mouth: "Don't mention that, it's bad luck."
"Don't bring up the past on such a great day, or I'll get you."
Because Qiao Xu was wearing flat shoes, she stood on tiptoe when she covered his mouth.
She carefully placed her other hand on his shoulder.
Xu Si'an sized up Qiao Xu in front of him.
I felt a little uncertain.
Is she really going to propose to me? She's not wearing any makeup, just a lipstick?
"you······"
Qiao Xu held out her hand to him: "Where's the box I asked you to bring me? Did you take it?"
Xu Si'an took a long, rectangular box out of his pocket and handed it to her.
"Is this the right one?"
