Qian Duoduo handed the items to the warehouse manager and then asked Zhang Tian to drive home. On the way, Lu Yuan leaned gently against Qian Duoduo, his large hand gently stroking her not-so-smooth small hand. Qian Duoduo naturally felt the roughness of Lu Yuan's large hand, especially the calluses on his index and middle fingers.
She took Lu Yuan's hand with a hint of heartache, gently stroking the calluses on his skin. Lu Yuan said softly, "These are all from when I was doing experiments. You don't know how boring it is when I'm doing experiments. My life is just a routine of three points every day: the lab, the cafeteria, and the dormitory."
Qian Duoduo asked softly, "Did you eat and sleep well?"
Lu Yuan nodded immediately: "Yes, the meals for us chief engineers are specially made. We can ask the kitchen to make whatever we want to eat, instead of eating the same work meals as the other employees. Sometimes when we miss a meal, the kitchen will make something for us right away. I'm also taking good care of my wife."
Qian Duoduo nodded, looking at the obedient Lu Yuan with amusement. He had always appeared in front of her as a protector before, but this time he was acting as the one being protected, which Qian Duoduo found novel. Since he wanted to play, Qian Duoduo was willing to cooperate, after all, it was something they both enjoyed.
Zhang Tian parked his car in front of the villa and saw Qian Duoduo pull Lu Yuan inside. After they opened the door with their keys, Zhang Tian drove away.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Hu Da involuntarily trembled. He rubbed his hands together, hunched his shoulders, and muttered, "Oh my god, Chief Engineer Lu is just unbearable! He's like a little kid! He even knows how to act cute with his wife. Look at how he's waving his little hands! I don't think even a child can act cute like that!" After saying that, Hu Da couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Hearing this, Zhang Tian, who was driving, smiled slightly. He chuckled and said, "Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense. It's normal for young couples to have a little romance. How would a single guy like you understand the sweetness of it? What's the point of talking to you about this?" With that, Zhang Tian shook his head helplessly.
Hu Da chuckled sheepishly after hearing this. A moment later, the car smoothly entered the parking lot. The two got out and walked side-by-side towards the dormitory building. They had been accompanying Lu Yuan in Pengcheng for some time, and these past few days had been their most relaxed and comfortable. This was mainly because Lu Yuan's schedule was very simple; he either stayed in Qian Duoduo's luxurious villa or went to the office to handle work matters. Outings like today were rare, so their original duties as bodyguards had practically become those of dedicated drivers—a job that was exceptionally easy and comfortable.
As Lu Yuan and Qian Duoduo entered the villa, before they could do anything inappropriate for children, a sudden, urgent phone call broke the atmosphere between them. Lu Yuan reflexively released Qian Duoduo's hands, looked at the ringing phone, and then patted his chest in relief.
He reached for the phone and held it to his ear. After hearing just one sentence, a bright smile immediately appeared on his face. "Mom! Duoduo and I just got back. Oh? Really? The date for Qian Gui's marriage proposal has already been set! That's great! Hmm... okay, no problem, we'll definitely be there on time. Don't worry, Mom, my cooking skills have improved a lot, and everything we need is ready at home. Hmm, okay, that's all for now, we'll talk more when we get back." Lu Yuan hung up the phone happily, turned to Qian Duoduo, and smiled, saying, "That was Mom on the phone. She told me that the date for Qian Gui's marriage proposal has been set, and she specifically told us to go together and support them."
Qian Duoduo nodded slightly upon hearing this, and replied thoughtfully, "Actually, Wang Rui mentioned this to me before. At the time, I was thinking that after Wang Rui and Qian Gui get married, we should just let them go to Beijing to develop their careers. After all, there are more opportunities and a bigger platform there, which would be more beneficial for their future life and career. What do you think of my idea?" After speaking, Qian Duoduo looked at Lu Yuan expectantly, seemingly very interested in his opinion on the matter.
Looking at Qian Duoduo's starry eyes, Lu Yuan chuckled and pinched her nose, saying, "I think you've got a scheme in mind behind this!"
Qian Duoduo said with a smile: "It's mainly about the Wang family. Wang Rui told me about her parents, siblings and so on. She is the second child and is not loved by her parents. Her older sister is narrow-minded and her mother favors her older sister and younger brother and exploits her. Her father is neither deaf nor dumb and is not a father-in-law. In everything, Wang's mother is the one who takes the lead and Wang's father enjoys the benefits in the back."
Listening to Qian Duoduo's words, Lu Yuan said, "Wang Rui's ability to grow up to be like this shows that she has a very strong will."
Qian Duoduo chuckled when she heard Lu Yuan's words: "I used to think Wang Rui was just good at observing, but later I realized she was quite eager to learn. It wasn't until she stayed with me in Yangcheng for a while that I realized she had a strong learning ability and was willing to work hard. She stayed in the workshop for half a month at a time, and that's when I decided to bring her to my side as my assistant."
Later, she went to Tuocheng and stayed there for more than two months. She completed her mission very well and had the courage to come to Beijing to find me with a check. I felt that this young girl was someone to be reckoned with and was willing to give her such an opportunity. As you can see, she is also someone who can seize opportunities and quickly won over Qian Guige's heart.
To be able to make choices with one's own family of origin—I think that kind of courage isn't something most people can do. At least, look at all my sisters-in-law; besides my fourth sister-in-law, who else could do that? Even my eldest sister-in-law from the Jin family mentioned bringing her younger brother here to work, asking me to get him a job as a manager or something, since we're all really close relatives!
As Lu Yuan listened to Qian Duoduo's words, he knew that his wife was working very hard to support such a large family business on her own. He hugged Qian Duoduo and said, "Wife, I am really happy that you have grown up so quickly. Before, when I saw you busy with those clothes, I thought that earning a little money was enough. I never thought that you would be the boss of a big company now, and I might have to live off you."
Qian Duoduo smiled and touched the double doors in front of her, feeling the muscles bulging. She laughed and said, "Little Yuanzi, it's a blessing to be able to live off my money. Others would love to but can't!"
Lu Yuan immediately said, "Oh, thank you so much, Sister Duoduo, for giving me this opportunity. I have no way to repay you but to offer myself to you!"
