Chapter 1003 He was so happy to find a wife that he wanted to set off firecrackers to celebrate.
"So you're so excited, is it because you're preparing a gift for your granddaughter-in-law?"
Chi Yingzhou held the heavy safe in his arms, weighed it in his hand, and curled his lips into a wicked smile: "This is your life savings. You're just giving it away to your granddaughter-in-law whom you've never met before. Don't you feel bad about it?"
"And a great-grandson." The old man chuckled, his wrinkles becoming more pronounced. "What a pity, it would have been nice if it were a great-granddaughter."
Old Wang next door had a great-granddaughter, and he's been showing her off all the time. He's practically grinding his teeth to dust.
Although there is no great-granddaughter, there is a great-grandson.
He had seen the girl's picture; she was incredibly beautiful.
That brat Chi Yingzhou, he's actually... not bad looking.
The baby they have will definitely be exceptionally beautiful.
He'll take it out to show off and let Old Man Wang taste the "bitterness" he's endured.
"Whether it's a great-grandchild or a granddaughter, as long as they are healthy, that's all that matters."
After thinking for a moment, Grandpa Chi added, "Take good care of that girl. It's a blessing for a man to suffer a little loss."
"Thank you for your advice, Grandpa." Chi Yingzhou nodded and put the safe back. "Your granddaughter-in-law is a very principled person. She might not accept it if you bring it back rashly."
"I'll bring her to see you next time, and you can give it to her in person."
"That works too." The old man thought about it and felt it made sense. "I heard your father was furious."
"It's alright, I'm still alive." Chi Yingzhou smiled faintly, not serious at all: "He told me to break up with Ali, to abort the child, and to push all the blame onto Ali."
"That bastard!" The old man was furious when he heard this. "He's the child's own grandfather, how could he say such inhuman things?"
"If I were in the front hall, I would break his legs."
What's the situation inside Xuanzhou?
"I dare not speak out against it," Chi Yingzhou answered truthfully. "Do I have to report to them about dating, getting married, and having children?"
"Well done!" The old man sneered, "Those old foxes in the administrative center are eager to take this opportunity to bring you down, so we have to teach them a lesson."
"Um."
Chi Yingzhou smiled gently and said, "Grandpa, I've been away for too long and it's time for me to go back. Don't worry about this matter, I'll handle it."
"Just wait five months and you can happily enjoy playing with your grandchildren."
"Then I'll wait." The old man smiled with satisfaction, and repeatedly instructed, "Yingzhou, take good care of yourself, okay?"
"Yes, we will." Chi Yingzhou's Adam's apple bobbed, his eyes deep. "We will all be fine."
grandfather.
Ali.
child.
Everyone he cares about must be well.
After Chi Yingzhou left.
The old man could no longer hold back his tears.
"Are you alright? Why are you crying?" The butler came in and was quite startled when he saw the scene.
Having served the old man for decades, I have never seen him shed a tear.
"Yingzhou has finally made it through." The old man wiped away his tears and said excitedly, "I'm no longer afraid that after I'm gone, there will be no one in the world to keep him company."
"Yes, the second young master has finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel and will be happy." The butler was also moved by the emotions and silently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Call Chi Nanxun here right now."
After being moved, the old man thought of his brainless son, and his expression instantly turned cold: "I want to see what he's up to."
——
On the other side of the city.
Since Chi Yingzhou left, Qu Qingli has been restless.
She now knows a little about the Chi family's situation.
Given her "bad" reputation, Chi Yingzhou's father might not agree to her being with him.
Calling him back might lead to something unforeseen, such as what they might do to Chi Yingzhou.
He hasn't fully recovered yet.
Just as I was getting anxious, the doorbell rang suddenly.
Qu Qingli immediately got up and rushed over to open the door.
But a completely unfamiliar face appeared.
"Hello, Miss Qu. I am the bodyguard sent by the governor to protect you. Here is dinner, please have some."
bodyguard?
This proves that her existence will bring him a lot of trouble.
No wonder he was unwilling to reveal his identity before.
Qu Qingli's mind wasn't on the food at all; her brows were furrowed as she asked, "Is Chi Yingzhou still at the Chi family's? How is he?"
“We are not aware of what happened at the old house,” the bodyguard replied respectfully. “However, the governor said that you can rest assured that he will be back after he has finished dealing with his business.”
"..."
Qu Qingli pursed her lips, her face looking quite unpleasant.
Upon seeing this.
The bodyguard thought for a moment, then reassured her, "Miss Qu, don't worry. The governor is not the same as when he was a child, when he was bullied and didn't fight back. He is the governor now, and no one dares to do anything to him."
"Um."
Qu Qingli felt much better. She took the lunchbox and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work."
"Of course." The bodyguard nodded and obediently withdrew.
Qu Qingli sat down on the sofa and opened the lunchbox.
I had just taken two bites when the doorbell rang again.
I really thought it was the bodyguard bringing something over again.
Qu Qingli slowly opened the door, and upon seeing Chi Yingzhou, she froze on the spot.
"What's wrong?" Seeing her bewildered look, Chi Yingzhou pinched her cheek. "Don't you recognize me after just a few hours?"
"You..." Qu Qingli looked him up and down, her voice hoarse as she asked, "Are you alright? Are you hurt?"
"No." Chi Yingzhou closed the door, stepped forward and got closer to Qu Qingli: "Have you eaten anything? Has the little guy been bothering you?"
Qu Qingli checked him over and found that he was indeed fine, then breathed a sigh of relief and shook her head: "No."
He's been quite quiet lately, just lying obediently in her belly every day.
"Don't stand there, come and sit down." Chi Yingzhou pulled Qu Qingli to the sofa, picked up the food and fed her.
"I'll eat it myself."
"It's hot, let me feed you."
Chi Yingzhou dodged her hand and fed Qu Qingli spoonful by spoonful.
This dish is light and nutritious, and looks like it would be perfect for pregnant women.
Qu Qingli ate more than half a bowl without realizing it.
"Go back and see Grandpa. The old man is quite adorable. He asked me to bring his safe back for you."
Chi Yingzhou smiled and said, "I'll have him give it to you personally next time we meet."
"Your grandfather?"
Qu Qingli pursed her lips, her brows furrowed: "He agreed to let you be with me?"
"Why wouldn't he agree?" Chi Yingzhou's smile widened. "His grandson will be so happy to set off firecrackers all over the streets to celebrate that his grandson has found a wife."
"That's outrageous!"
Qu Qingli pushed the bowl away and leaned back on the sofa. "That's enough, I can't eat anymore."
"good."
Chi Yingzhou put down his spoon and stared intently at her.
Because of her pregnancy, Qu Qingli's cheeks were round, her skin was fair, and she radiated maternal glow.
It's even more beautiful than before.
He couldn't resist moving closer, his throat bobbing: "Is it good? Can I try some?"
"You eat it."
Qu Qingli lazily raised her eyes, her gaze sweeping over the food on the table.
There's still quite a lot left.
"good."
Chi Yingzhou smiled, then leaned down, pinched Qu Qingli's chin, and covered her red lips with his thin lips.
Qu Qingli: "?"
——
good evening.
