Chapter 17: Bai Yueguang appears?
They seemed to have really started their married life, having dinner together every day, sharing little things with each other, and then sleeping together.
There was finally a breath of life in Lu Yanzhi's house. Before Zhou Qingti moved in, there was basically no clutter on the coffee table and the restaurant island.
Lu Yanzhi himself accepted these changes well, and even felt that it would be acceptable if he could continue to develop a relationship with her.
After she moved in, she would often leave some snacks, hair ties and an iPad on the table.
There are so many bottles and jars in the bathroom that it's dizzying.
Zhou Qingti was the first person to live in his house.
In the past, Lu Yanzhi rarely socialized with others except for dinner with friends and some necessary business dealings.
He doesn't like crowds very much.
Zhou Qingti thought they would live in peace like this for a long time, but unexpectedly, changes began on the third day.
Lu Yanzhi went to a business dinner, and Zhou Qingti took the store staff to the dinner.
When she returned home, Lu Yanzhi had not come back yet, and she did not intend to ask. Although the two of them had no explicit rules on whether they could interfere in each other's private affairs, she was a person who knew her limits.
At around ten o'clock, Second Aunt's daughter Lu Zhenzhen sent her a WeChat message, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then said: "Sister-in-law, I have something to show you, please don't be angry."
【What's wrong】
The other party was still laying the groundwork: [I have a friend who is a journalist, and I bought this from him for 20,000 yuan] and then sent two photos.
A curly-haired girl was leaning against Lu Yanzhi, holding a cell phone. The girl was smiling happily. Although there was no smile on Lu Yanzhi's face, his body language showed that he did not reject the intimacy of this woman.
The second photo shows Lu Yanzhi holding the phone in his hand. Although the two hands are not touching, their behavior does prove that the two have a good relationship.
Zhou Qingti didn't know what emotion she should express. She felt a little sad, but she knew she couldn't just feel sad.
So she asked Lu Zhenzhen: [Who is she]
[Her name is Lan Xin. She's a friend of my brother's who studied abroad. We often teamed up to complete projects together and had a pretty good relationship. It seems she just returned to China recently. I heard my brother wants to recruit her into the company.]
Knowing it so clearly, it was very likely that Lu Zhenzhen came to find Zhou Qingti at the instruction of her second uncle, but this was not her concern.
I understand. Thank you.
Lu Zhenzhen continued: [Sister-in-law, don't worry, the photos won't be spread out]
Zhou Qingti was a smart man and immediately transferred 20,000 yuan to her. Lu Zhenzhen received it immediately and comforted her: "Sister-in-law, don't be too sad."
Zhou Qingti was not sad, he just wondered why these two photos were worth 20,000 yuan?
Lu Yanzhi often ate with her and went to the Civil Affairs Bureau with her, but no one took pictures of him.
The money she and Lu Yanzhi had must be more than 20,000! This inexplicable desire to win.
Zhou Qingti poured himself a glass of water to calm himself down and think about what to do. Direct questioning? That was definitely not an option.
Pretend not to know? Then what about her 20,000 yuan? If she wants more photos later, won't she have to spend more money?
At eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, Lu Yanzhi had not returned yet. Zhou Qingti was lying on the bed wondering if Lan Xin was Lu Yanzhi's white moonlight?
Aren’t the white moonlights in domineering CEO novels all returned from studying abroad? Resuming the old relationship after returning home is a sign of having a full buff stacked up.
If this is the case, the two of you should sleep in separate beds. You should be more sensible.
Is Lu Yanzhi not coming back tonight? According to the domineering CEO literature trope, he shouldn't come back.
I’m so sleepy, I’m going to sleep first.
Zhou Qingti fell asleep in a daze after playing out a tragic love story in his mind.
Lu Yanzhi came back shortly after she fell asleep. He thought there would be a light left on for him.
Looking at the dark room, Lu Yanzhi turned on the floor lamp. It turned out that everyone was asleep.
He suddenly felt a little angry. He was out entertaining people and she didn't even show any concern for him while she was sleeping soundly.
Lu Yanzhi understood the sadness of a husband who worked hard to earn money to support the family but his wife still didn't love him.
Walking to the bed and looking at Zhou Qingti's peaceful sleeping face, he muttered softly, "No conscience."
Zhou Qingti woke up when he turned on the light, but she didn't open her eyes because she hadn't figured out how to face him.
She smelled the alcohol on Lu Yanzhi's body and heard what he said, and thought: Is he talking about me? This shouldn't be the case.
Seeing the person sleeping soundly on the bed, Lu Yanzhi reached out and pinched her fair cheek.
He had wanted to do this for a long time. The feeling was even smoother than he had imagined, but she still didn't wake up. Lu Yanzhi pinched her again with more force as if to play a prank.
Zhou Qingti cursed in his heart: Taking advantage of her sleep to retaliate against her? He couldn't help himself right after seeing Bai Yueguang? Are you okay? If you're fine, just eat some Liuliumei.
Hearing the sound of Lu Yanzhi taking a shower, Zhou Qingti fell asleep to the sound of water.
…
The next day, Lu Yanzhi had packed up and was ready for work. Seeing Zhou Qingti still asleep, he walked over and used his fingers to feel her breath.
Still alive, "How can you sleep so well? Are you a pig?"
Zhou Qingti rolled his eyes in his heart: You are the pig, hurry up and leave, I want to get up.
Lu Yanzhi finally left. Zhou Qingti sat up and pounded the bed in anger: "Shameless! Bai Yueguang is back and you're spraying perfume! Flowery peacock!"
Just now when Lu Yanzhi approached her, she smelled the woody citrus scent on him.
After venting, I realized: Why am I so angry? I put my hands on my hair and got out of bed gracefully.
She picked up her phone and looked at the message. Lu Zhenzhen asked her early in the morning if they hadn't quarreled last night.
Zhou Qingti didn't want to pay any attention to this person who was pretending to care but was just watching the fun, but he still had to reply.
[It’s okay, I didn’t tell your brother about that. As long as he can go home, I’ll pretend I don’t know.] Look, what a qualified punching bag for a wealthy family.
[By the way, don't tell grandma. She's old and I don't want her to worry about anything.]
Lu Zhenzhen: [Okay, I'll let you know if there's any news.]
Zhou Qingti thought to himself, please don’t tell me, I don’t want to spend money anymore.
But the reply was [Okay, thank you. Without you, I would still be kept in the dark.]
Lu Zhenzhen [Sister-in-law, we are all family]
No wonder Mrs. Lu doesn't like her.
In the afternoon, Lu Yanzhi sent her a message saying that he would not be going home for dinner in the evening. Zhou Qingti felt a little depressed. So she decided not to go home for dinner and would go to the old house to accompany her grandmother.
She wants to play the role of a bullied rich woman to the extreme. When her husband goes out to accompany his white moonlight, she also has to accompany her husband's family.
Lu Yanzhi didn't know what Zhou Qingti was thinking. He wasn't having dinner with Lan Xin today. He had been on a business trip for half a month and many business meals were still piling up.
Lu Yanzhi didn't come back until eleven o'clock in the middle of the night again, and Zhou Qingti was still pretending to be asleep. She had thought about it calmly during the day and decided that she should reduce her presence at home to prevent Lu Yanzhi from regretting ending the cooperation early.
Lu Yanzhi looked at the woman sleeping soundly on the bed and fell asleep again. Why did he sleep so much in the past two days?
I reached out and pinched her cheeks. During the day at the company, I felt a sense of fulfillment in my heart thinking that there would be someone waiting for me at home when I got home at night.
The night passed peacefully. The sun rose and a new day began. Zhou Qingti was still asleep when Lu Yanzhi left.
Lu Yanzhi still didn't go home for dinner tonight.
It was the third day, and she didn't want to go home for dinner, so she ordered takeout from the store with Xiao Li.
Zhou Qingti stayed in the store until nine o'clock, and Xiao Li was a little puzzled.
"Boss, didn't you always have to go back for dinner at 6:30? Why didn't you leave today?"
"Home-cooked food is never as delicious as takeout." Zhou Qingti sighed, but Xiao Li didn't hear it and said happily, "Indeed, the spicy bullfrog we had today was delicious."
Zhou Qingti looked at Xiao Li who was still reminiscing about the past. He was so simple. It’s better to be simple!
