Chapter 61 Mind His Illegitimate Child
Zhu Wendong shook his head, his tone firm and honest: "No, I did it for myself."
She didn't want her marriage to end so hastily, at least she had to be willing to do it.
After Zhou Si'an got the answer, he loosened his clenched fists and said casually, "I'm going to California tomorrow and won't be back in Jiangbei for a long time. We'll meet again if we're lucky."
Zhu Wendong raised his eyes to look at him: "Well, I'll wait for you to return to Jiangbei."
Zhou Si'an gave a bitter and indifferent smile, with the dimples on his lips slightly sunken, like a period without an answer.
That's enough.
After Zhou Si'an left, Zhu Wendong returned to the ward, put the kettle on the bedside, and just sat down.
Wen Lu glanced at her nonchalantly, and said indifferently, "Now that we've passed the marriage hurdle, don't forget my other condition."
Zhu Wendong picked up the apple again and began to peel it, saying calmly, "I didn't agree, so it doesn't count."
“…”
Wen Lu was almost irritated by her self-righteous expression. She snatched the half-peeled apple from her hand and said unhappily, "Don't peel it anymore. I don't want to eat an apple today!"
"I'm peeling it for myself." Zhu Wendong took it back and continued peeling it with interest.
Wen Lu was extremely upset when she saw her like this. She gritted her teeth and asked, "Are you still obsessed with your ex-boyfriend?"
Without giving Zhu Wendong a chance to answer, she continued, "If you can't forget it, bring it back to me and I'll check it for you."
Wen Lu's expression was serious and her tone was unyielding.
Zhu Wendong had no choice but to say something nonsense: "He is dead. If you really want to see him, I will take you to the cemetery when you get better."
Wen Lu: “…”
Wen Lu's words rolled around in her mouth again and again, but she finally swallowed them back. She looked embarrassed and spoke in a tough tone for a long time.
"I don't care. If you don't get married within a month, you have to bring me a boyfriend!"
Zhu Wendong said calmly, "Then you should go to bed early."
Wen Lu was so angry that she was mad at him. In the end, she said, "You'd better not be angry and worry too much. Your health is the most important thing."
I got a counter-education, it was really outrageous.
The consequence of disobeying Wen Lu is that she received a bunch of photos of men, all kinds of men, tall, rich, handsome, and thin.
Some people know that it is about selecting blind date partners, while others think it is about selecting male models.
Wen Lu didn't force her to choose immediately, but was afraid that she would not choose, so she simply stuffed the photo into her bag forcefully.
So when Zhu Wendong returned home, there were a bunch of photos of different kinds of men in her bag.
As soon as he got home, Zhu Wendong casually placed the photo on the table without even looking at it.
I have started to revise the manuscript in the study again. I have been very busy recently and the revision time is getting closer, so I have to work overtime to revise it.
-
The Lu family's old house.
Old Master Lu raised his cane and slammed it hard on the ground, making a crisp sound.
He snorted: "Stinky boy, I heard that your girlfriend was snatched away by the Zhou family?"
Qi Yanxue squatted on the ground and rubbed Donggua's dog head. Donggua hadn't seen him for a long time, and he rubbed and nudged him, being extremely enthusiastic.
After hearing the old man's words, he first glanced at Lu Guanqi who was sitting carefree on the sofa in the distance.
Lu Guanqi noticed the gaze and spread his hands with an innocent expression. It was unfair. It really wasn't him who said it this time.
When Mr. Lu saw his action, he turned his head and gave a cold look behind him. Lu Guanqi immediately sat up straight and put away his playful smile.
"You see, he's useless. I have so many friends in the circle that I can't miss him."
Old Master Lu pointed his cane at him and said angrily, "Come on, why didn't you tell me such a big thing? Are you worried that I'm too old to defeat the Zhou family?"
"Come on! Let's go! The Zhou family thinks they are so great, right? How dare they steal my granddaughter-in-law? I'll kill them!"
Old Master Lu was about to walk out angrily, holding his crutch, his eyebrows raised in anger.
Qi Yanxue hurriedly stood up and grabbed the old man, helping him sit on the sofa while calming his breathing.
"Just enjoy your retirement life at home. The Zhou family is not worth making me suffer."
He picked out nice things to say to him, speaking in a nonchalant manner, as if he had some extraordinary ability.
But Mr. Lu knew clearly that this boy was the second-in-command and the second young master of the Qi family, but in reality, he did not even have one percent of the actual controlling stake in the group.
It's completely an empty shell that is relying on the power of others to bully others.
But the Qi family is not a good family. They live a carefree life abroad, leaving Qi Yanxue alone in the country to work hard for them.
To put it bluntly, she still cares about his status as an illegitimate child.
Mr. Lu waved his hand and said, "If you say it's okay, then forget it. If you don't tell me about this kind of thing next time, I'll be the first to beat you up!"
Qi Yanxue knew that Mr. Lu was backing him up, so he deliberately made a joke, "This kind of thing probably won't happen again."
Lu Guanqi found the right moment to speak: "Yes, Grandpa, even the Zhou family doesn't have the guts to be rejected a second time."
Mr. Lu was successfully appeased by the two brothers' cooperation. He laughed for a long time and said to Qi Yanxue, "Bring that girl back to me next time."
Qi Yanxue was silent for a moment before saying, "Wait for a while."
He is now out of reach in her heart, and she has to take her time to gain a status.
After dinner at the Lu family, Qi Yanxue was about to take Donggua back to Biesong, but was stopped by Lu Guanqi on the way and they argued over the dog for a long time.
In the end, he walked away with Donggua in a carefree manner with an overwhelming victory.
As soon as I arrived at the 23rd floor of Biesong, the door of the next room happened to open.
Zhu Wendong had a loose bun on her head, a fair and bright face, bright and lively almond-shaped eyes, and was looking at him without blinking in her loose pajamas.
He was obviously stunned.
The traction rope in his hand suddenly shook vigorously, and Qi Yanxue was pulled forward two steps. He saw Donggua rushing towards Zhu Wendong like a bull.
I simply loosened the rope and let it run away.
Donggua went straight towards Zhu Wendong without any obstruction.
Zhu Wendong was caught off guard and was almost knocked over by the fifty-pound dog. After stabilizing himself, he rubbed the dog's head that was rubbing against him, and his almond-shaped eyes curved into small crescents.
When she smiled, the cool air dissipated, just like the bright spring flowers.
In fact, in Qi Yanxue's memory, Zhu Wendong five years ago was bright, confident, and full of vigor, but now there is an indescribable lack of warmth.
It's more like an extra layer of barrier that traps me tightly and makes my life lonely.
Zhu Wendong asked softly, "Did you bring Donggua back from the Lu family's old house?"
Qi Yanxue came back to his senses and said "hmm" lightly, with no emotion.
Zhu Wendong did not mention that he was drunk that night, nor did he mention that the password to his room door was her birthday.
He didn't say anything else, and Zhu Wendong didn't take the initiative to speak. She was concentrating on petting the dog. Suddenly, Donggua slipped away from her feet and ran into her house through the crack in the door.
He disappeared in a flash.
Qi Yanxue called out in a deep voice, "Winter Melon."
There was no sound, but instead one could hear the sound of dog paws tapping on the ground as it ran farther and farther.
"Let me go in and pull it out." Zhu Wendong turned and went into the house.
After walking around the house, I finally found the winter melon sitting upright in the corner of my room.
Zhu Wendong walked over, pulled the leash and walked out, but unexpectedly, Donggua didn't move at all, and she was pulled back two steps.
How can a dog have so much strength?
Zhu Wendong didn't believe it and took two more steps. It was great, nothing moved at all, but he was exhausted.
There's nothing I can do.
She had no choice but to walk to the door and tell Qi Yanxue, who had been waiting, "Winter melon is lying there, I can't pull it out."
Zhu Wendong tilted his head and looked at him, and asked, "How about you come?"
Qi Yanxue lowered his eyes, raised his chin, and uttered two words: "Lead the way."
He followed her into the house and glanced at her casually as they passed the dining table.
There were a bunch of photos of different men spread out on the table.
Qi Yanxue paused for a second, raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at the thin figure in front of him with an intriguing look.
