Chapter 695: Husband is not at home
"Oh, your brother's birthday is today. Come in, come in and have some cake." The woman greeted enthusiastically after being stunned for a while.
When she saw Zhong Jincheng's wet hair, she turned around and shouted, "Lolo! Your brother is here, bring him a dry towel!"
"Ah? Which brother?" The boy poked his head in confusion.
The woman frowned: "Your brother Jincheng!"
The boy said "oh" twice casually, still had no impression, but still obediently ran into the bathroom and got a dry towel. He looked at Zhong Jincheng at the door curiously, and Zhong Jincheng also looked down at him. After retracting his gaze, Zhong Jincheng looked at a pair of exquisite men's leather shoes on the shoe cabinet.
This must be a gentle and family-oriented man.
"Come on, wipe it, wipe it, come in, why are you standing outside?"
The woman took the towel and immediately wanted to help Zhong Jincheng wipe his head. Zhong Jincheng took it with a feeling of being flattered, but he couldn't force a smile on his face. He could only say cautiously: "I can do it myself."
He wiped his hair but still didn't go in. The towel was very dry and it had a pleasant sun-dried smell, just like the smell of the past. As Zhong Jincheng wiped his hair, his eyes suddenly turned red, but he suppressed the grievance in his heart and didn't cry.
"I...I came to see you for something. Do you have time now?" Zhong Jincheng asked while wiping his head.
The woman did not answer immediately. She wiped her hands on her apron, turned around and looked in the direction of the living room, seeming to be hesitant. This simple turn made Zhong Jincheng regret his decision.
"What is it?"
"My girlfriend is pregnant and is meeting her parents today... I want you to go meet them on my behalf to discuss getting married during the summer vacation."
Zhong Jincheng omitted a lot of things and only said the important things. If the woman's attitude was still hesitant, he would turn around and leave immediately.
The woman was stunned for a long time, then her brows furrowed. She didn't say anything immediately, but nodded her head heavily: "I'm free! Wait for a moment, I'll just pack it up and it'll be ready soon."
She quickly untied her apron and shouted, "Lolo! Ranran! Mom is going out for a while, you guys stay at home and behave yourself, okay?!"
"I know, I know!"
Zhong Jincheng heard the voice of his sister whom he had never met before, and her voice was very cute.
The woman was tidying up the room with a clattering sound. It was obvious that she was in a hurry. When she passed by the door, she couldn't help but ask Zhong Jincheng, "Does your father know?"
Zhong Jincheng lowered his head at the door: "...I couldn't contact him."
The woman's voice contained a hint of anger: "I knew it would be like this."
She seemed to have a lot more questions to ask, but she had to keep them to herself for now.
Zhong Jincheng hung his head and took out the mobile phone from his pocket. He wiped the water stains on the screen and saw that Luo Wei had sent him several urging messages. Zhong Jincheng quickly replied.
A black Toyota drove out of the community. The atmosphere in the car was a little quiet. Zhong Jincheng didn't dare to look at the expression of the woman next to him.
"You have a girlfriend?"
"Um."
“Who made the decision to get married?”
"I don't plan to abort the baby, and I don't want her to get pregnant for no apparent reason, so I'll have a wedding first."
Hearing this, the woman turned her head and looked over with a somewhat surprised expression. Getting pregnant before marriage, what a familiar plot, but Zhong Jincheng's choice was much more responsible than his father's.
"Xiao Cheng, are you doing this intentionally because you don't want to be like your father..." the woman asked hesitantly.
Zhong Jincheng frowned: "No, my dad is a good person, that's what I thought, it has nothing to do with what he did in the past."
The woman stopped talking and the atmosphere in the car became quiet again. Zhong Jincheng closed his eyes, feeling a little uncomfortable.
The car stopped at the hotel's parking lot. After getting out of the car, the two walked side by side. Zhong Jincheng suddenly heard the woman next to him choking and saying to him: "I'm sorry, Xiao Cheng, it's my parents' fault..."
Zhong Jincheng still didn't want to turn his head to look at her, but his eyes were red. He wiped his eyes quickly, thinking that he could at least save his image in front of Luo Wei's parents.
In the afternoon, Zheng Yifeng and Su Miaomiao came to Xia Yiwan Noodles. Su Miaomiao walked with a limp. Bai Qingxia looked at her steps a few more times. Lu Yuanqiu really didn't lie. Sure enough, the two of them were staggering in opposite directions.
"Where is Lu Yuanqiu? Aren't you two inseparable every day?" Su Miaomiao asked jokingly.
"I went to see reporter Qin." Bai Qingxia, who was standing at the counter, responded with a slightly arrogant tone. The hostile relationship between the couple from last night seemed to have continued until now. It was really funny to talk about it. It was clearly a two-on-two match yesterday, but in the end only the woman was injured, and both were on her buttocks, and the injuries were symmetrical...
"Lu Yuanqiu is not here today, so Zheng Yifeng and I will bully you together later~" Su Miaomiao joked while lying on the counter.
Bai Qingxia snorted: "I'm not afraid of you."
Su Miaomiao propped her cheek with her hand: "Is this true?"
Bai Qingxia ignored her arrogantly and turned around to get something. Su Miaomiao took the opportunity to slap her on the left butt where she fell. Bai Qingxia was so startled that she jumped slightly and her buttocks bounced.
She turned around and looked at Su Miaomiao's smiling face, feeling angry and helpless.
Su Miaomiao continued to tease: "Who told you that your husband is not at home~"
Bai Qingxia wanted to retort, "Your husband is useless at home," but she felt too embarrassed to say the word "husband." If Lu Yuanqiu was not around, she would be embarrassed to make such a joke alone.
This is indeed the weakness of “husband is not at home”, I can’t even win an argument.
Bai Qingxia lowered her head to wipe the dishes and swallowed her anger.
Su Miaomiao burst into laughter at her bullied look.
A complete win today.
"What's the situation now?"
Hearing the voice, the two people at the counter turned their heads and looked over. It was Zheng Yifeng who was on the phone. The voice on the other end was Zhong Jincheng's: "The situation is normal. Anyway, we have reached an agreement and will pick a time to hold the wedding during the summer vacation."
Zheng Yifeng could tell that Zhong Jincheng's tone was a little depressed and low, so he asked, "How was the process? There was no physical action, right?"
Bai Qingxia walked over with Su Miaomiao curiously. They sat around the table and listened to the call carefully.
Zhong Jincheng: "Not really... I just received a call and I have something else to do. I'll tell you in detail when I get back."
Su Miaomiao and Bai Qingxia looked up at the same time.
Su Miaomiao: "What happened?"
Bai Qingxia raised her right hand slightly: "I know a little, but I won't tell you."
Seeing this, Su Miaomiao lifted up her sleeves and said, "Xia Xia, I think your other butt is itchy too."
Bai Qingxia quickly fled to the counter.
Inside the Toyota, Zhong Jincheng hung up the phone. The call he just received was from his father's friend, who said that his father had a hangover last night because of his unemployment and had just woken up, but he was vomiting when he woke up, so he asked Zhong Jincheng to come and pick him up.
"That girl is pretty nice." The mother in the driver's seat suddenly spoke.
