Chapter 936 I Will Definitely Find You
It's not that keeping pets is impossible; Lu Yuanqiu can accept things like shedding. But whether you keep a cat or a dog, there will be an odor in the house, which is an unavoidable problem. Moreover, pets can destroy things and cause a lot of trouble.
However, after Lu Yuanqiu finished speaking, he saw that Bai Qingxia looked very disappointed, and in the end he couldn't bear it, so he compromised and said to her, "Call me Qiuqiu again."
Bai Qingxia looked up at him with shame and indignation, then ignored Lu Yuanqiu and strode towards the bedroom.
"Fine, fine, I'll raise it! I'll raise a cat, okay?" Lu Yuanqiu compromised.
If they have dogs, they won't have time to walk them.
Bai Qingxia turned around, her expression instantly changing. She smiled and quickly replied, "Okay."
The reason she reacted that way was because she felt Lu Yuanqiu was mocking her, since she had called Lu Yuanqiu "Qiuqiu" several times in the past two days without his request.
...that is, while doing that kind of thing.
Bai Qingxia was very different from other girls. At that time, she would be particularly immersed in her emotions, like she was in a dream and couldn't distinguish reality. However, she was also very conservative. With just one action, she would wrap her arms tightly around Lu Yuanqiu's neck, wrap her legs around Lu Yuanqiu's body, close her eyes tightly, and say things that were out of control. She would involuntarily call out "Qiuqiu" in Lu Yuanqiu's ear, a cheesy nickname that she would never be embarrassed to say on her own initiative.
But she always denied it afterwards, remaining stubbornly defiant.
That evening, after showering, the two went to bed early. Bai Qingxia hesitated, saying, "Isn't this too frequent? You're not fully recovered yet..."
"Are you waiting until you're too old to do it?" Lu Yuanqiu unusually used a strong reason.
"I want to hear you call me Qiuqiu again."
"Nonsense! If you keep this up, I'm leaving. I'm going to sleep on the sofa." She looked embarrassed and tried to get out of bed.
"Okay, okay, you didn't shout, you didn't shout, you never shouted, alright?" Lu Yuanqiu lowered his head and admitted defeat, pulling her back again.
"What do you mean 'okay'?" Bai Qingxia turned to look at him angrily, her eyebrows furrowed, her tone stubborn: "I didn't even shout!"
"Okay, okay, no, no, no!"
Fifteen minutes later.
The girl's eyes were glazed over, her arms tightly wrapped around Lu Yuanqiu's neck, and she whispered in his ear, "Qiu... Qiu..."
Lu Yuanqiu's face darkened; he really wanted to take out his phone and record the conversation.
Bai Qingxia was always very engrossed in the experience.
Forget it, I'll give her some face since she's already as thin-skinned as a sheet of paper.
...
The next morning.
Xiaxia: Dad, I need to take the day off again today.
"dad":……
Xiao Qiu: Second Uncle, I am terminally ill.
"You little brat! You think you're all grown up now?!" His second uncle called immediately, the thunderous sound startling Lu Yuanqiu so much that he almost dropped his phone.
"You've only been at headquarters for a few days and you're already taking leave! And you're seriously ill? Do you believe I'll send a private doctor to check you out right now?!"
Lu Yuanqiu stretched out his arm, holding the phone far away from him. Bai Qingxia was stunned for a moment, then mouthed, "Are you really coming?"
Suddenly, her uncle's voice came through the phone: "Xiao Qiu and Xia Xia have been staying at the new house these past few days, right?"
Lu Yuanqiu hesitated before replying, "Ah...yes."
My second uncle continued his tirade: "So what if you move to the new house? Will it affect your work?! I seem to remember your new house being closer to your company!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yuanqiu heard his uncle's scolding voice: "Don't you know that the young couple has just started living together? Huh? You still ask? You're so old and you don't even understand this kind of situation."
Second Uncle was stunned for a moment, as if he had been slapped by Nangong Wenya in an instant. His voice became silly and hesitant: "Oh, oh, we're living together now. Ah, okay, okay, you guys go ahead with your business. I'll hang up now."
"beep--"
Lu Yuanqiu didn't say a word, but the two old men explained the matter clearly in a question-and-answer session. He turned to look at Bai Qingxia and saw that she had her head down, her cheeks were flushed, and she was wrapped in a blanket, hugging her legs tightly inside the blanket.
"This is terrible, they've all misunderstood..."
"Actually, it's not really a misunderstanding."
"It's all your fault. My dad isn't saying anything either. He probably already imagines how... ridiculous we've been these past few days."
“How is this absurd? We’re building our own little family! Look how cozy our home is now.” Lu Yuanqiu raised his hand and waved it.
Bai Qingxia looked to the side and indeed, the entire house had changed from a cool color scheme to a warm color scheme. Everywhere she looked, there was the atmosphere of their life, colors she liked, and things she liked. She looked at what was in front of her... and the person she loved.
She has indeed been very happy these past few days.
“In the eyes of our elders, living our own lives well is definitely more important than going to work on time,” Lu Yuanqiu comforted them.
Bai Qingxia looked up at him and nodded with a smile.
Lu Yuanqiu: "So the love in the morning continues."
Bai Qingxia's smile vanished.
Xiao Li Feibiao is quite perceptive; knowing that the two of them have started living together, he hasn't been following them around these past few days. However, he's happy about it, as it gives him more time to spend with his daughter during his vacation.
The two of them will be able to finish decorating their new home today. Lu Yuanqiu went back to Xingfuli and moved all the old photos from his home over.
He had previously selected some of the better photos taken over the past six years, printed them out, framed them, and planned to display them in his new home. Now, he had finally gotten his wish.
Bai Qingxia was preparing dinner in the kitchen. While peeling scallions, she glanced at Lu Yuanqiu in the study. She saw Lu Yuanqiu looking calmly at the photo frames in front of him. Occasionally, he would pick up one or two and examine them carefully. His face would show smiles, melancholy, and a barely perceptible sadness.
She watched quietly, as if she were putting herself in Lu Yuanqiu's every expression.
"What are you doing!" She suddenly appeared at the study door.
Lu Yuanqiu put the photo frame down and replied, "Looking at the photos from my school days, from high school to university, I have a bad memory, but seeing the photos reminds me of what happened back then."
Bai Qingxia walked in with her hands behind her back and nodded slightly. After observing the room for a while, she said, "Lu Yuanqiu, you actually have a big problem, do you know that?"
Her question came in a very cute tone.
"What?"
“You’re too immersed in the past. When you went to the demolished urban villages, you wanted to step on the broken glass to see the houses. When you took graduation photos, you wanted to retrace every step you took in the school. Having memories is a good thing, but being too immersed in them is a bad thing.”
“We should look ahead!” She smiled, pursing her lips, but her finger pointed upwards.
Lu Yuanqiu sighed.
Indeed, it was precisely because he missed the past that he made experiencing youth his first task in his rebirth.
I thought of rebirth again, and I thought of that dream again.
"Xiaxia... uh, there's a really popular topic online lately, which is, if I were gone one day, what would you do during that time? Uh, they all ask their partners this question and make short videos about it. Why don't you answer it too? I'll write it down in my little notebook." Lu Yuanqiu said with a smile.
Bai Qingxia approached him. She remembered asking this question before, but her reaction that time was just helpless crying. This time, however, she had an answer.
"No matter where you go, I will find you. I will definitely find you." The girl looked into his eyes, her expression extremely serious.
These two chapters contain important foreshadowing. Also, according to the latest plan, there will be an epilogue volume after Volume 4, which will also be Volume 5 and the final volume. Volume 4 should be finished in the next few days. The epilogue volume won't be too long, around a few dozen chapters.
