"Cough cough cough cough..." Qin Zhengming suddenly started coughing violently.
Chu Yuan smiled, thinking, "This cover was brilliantly done; no wonder he's my uncle!"
The battle didn't end until 2 a.m.
Under Shen Xizhou's guidance, Chu Yuan achieved a great victory, not only winning back the more than 5,000 she lost during the day, but also winning an additional 5,000.
Everyone else was almost in tears because they had all lost!
However, when split among everyone, it's only a little over 1,000 per person, which is not bad.
This time, Shen Xizhou restrained himself and did not keep Chu Yuan behind alone again.
I watched her and Qiao Meixin go back to their room to sleep.
As a leader, it was already inappropriate to let two young girls play so late. If it weren't for the fact that Shu Baisheng's friend was an older woman, this would have been unacceptable.
"Yuanyuan, it's a good thing we switched beds, otherwise we would have disturbed other people's sleep so late," Qiao Meixin said energetically.
If it weren't for the fact that the old men couldn't stay up all night, she could have played even more!
Chu Yuan's eyelids were drooping. "Mmm, so sleepy~"
Qiao Meixin scoffed, "You're so bad! I'm going to tell my girlfriends tomorrow that you've won big, you're buying crayfish next time."
"No problem." Chu Yuan collapsed onto the bed, almost unable to get up to wash.
Once they left, the others dispersed as well, leaving only Qin Zhengming and Shen Xizhou to return to their rooms.
As a leader, Shen Xizhou had his own room, which was of a higher standard.
Since Qin Zhengming was transferred to serve as the dean, he has rarely seen Shen Xizhou. However, because his wife always says that she should take good care of this nephew, he decided to stay tonight.
Shen Xizhou went into the bathroom to take a shower.
While brewing tea, Qin Zhengming asked with a half-smile, "You kid... you've really made up your mind?"
The latter was taking off his clothes. Hearing this, he paused for a moment, then said, "Well, we've already got the marriage certificate. Did you think I was lying?"
"What?!" This startled Qin Zhengming, who jumped to his feet and paced around. "This is terrible! You're secretly married? Does no one in your family know? Not even your aunt?"
Shen Xizhou poked his head out of the bathroom. "Are you scared? It's okay. I won't make you take the blame for what I did."
"Nonsense? What am I afraid of? I just think marriage is a big deal. You've only been dating this girl for a short time. Isn't it too hasty?"
Instead of answering, Shen Xizhou asked, "What, you think she's not good enough for me? That she's not good enough for me?"
"Forget it!" Qin Zhengming sat down again, took a sip of the freshly brewed hot tea, and said, "At your age and with your personality, who knows whether it's good or bad for a young girl to be with you."
"Is it beautiful?" Shen Xizhou asked out of the blue.
Qin Zhengming realized what was happening and saw the smile on his lips. He was stunned and incredulous.
This nephew has been precocious and arrogant since childhood, and he is exceptionally talented in his studies. That's why he has always resisted getting married, which makes everyone quite nervous, fearing that he might have gone crazy from studying too much.
When was the last time I saw such an expression on his face?
His eyes, which didn't show his age to begin with, lit up with a bright smile, making him look like a naive young man in his early twenties.
Qin Zhengming was finally certain that he was serious this time.
It's even more real than pearls!
The little girl looks quite nice, so soft and sweet, I'm sure my older sister will like her!
But he couldn't help but say, "Since you've already registered your marriage, you should tell your family, otherwise they'll be worried about it!"
Oh right, I heard that Xue Qing was also transferred to your department?
Everyone in Beijing knows what she thinks of you. Take it easy; she's not like your sweet, innocent wife who's so easily fooled.
Shen Xizhou, "..."
Can he say that little white rabbits are not easy to coax at all?
A cold wind blew, and Shen Xizhou shivered, temporarily stopping the conversation. "I'll take a shower first, and then I'll tell you."
At 3:00, Shen Xizhou took a can of beer from the refrigerator and gave it to Qin Zhengming.
The latter shook his head repeatedly, "Forget it, I won't drink it. Your aunt will check my weight loss results later."
Shen Xizhou scoffed, "She's a pampered wife, and you're a pampered husband. Fine, I won't force you."
"I mailed photos to Lao Shen and Ms. Lin on the day we got our marriage certificate, but who knows why they didn't receive them?" Shen Xizhou took a sip of beer and said slowly, "Don't worry about Xue Qing. I'll leave her hanging for a few days. When I announce our marriage, she'll naturally back down."
"So when will you announce it?"
"Shouldn't we ask our little darling wife's opinion first?"
Qin Zhengming felt incredibly aching.
The next morning, as soon as he arrived at his office, he called his wife in Beijing.
Lin Hanshuang reacted strongly upon hearing this, "What? You're married?"
"Yes, he got married. His wife is a girl twelve years younger than him, and she only graduated from junior college..."
"Tsk, twelve years old? Only graduated from junior college? Old Shen values a woman's education the most. Compared to that, her family background is just average. Oh no, I feel like a storm is about to break!"
Qin Zhengming felt the same way, but he also felt a little envious of Shen Xizhou.
Who wouldn't love a cute and innocent little girl?
With so many shrewish women around, little lambs and rabbits naturally seem more adorable.
She sighed and said, "Be careful how you talk about it. Xizhou said he sent the wedding photos back, but maybe his brother-in-law missed them because he has so many letters. I think Xizhou is serious this time, so let's not turn a good thing into a bad thing."
"Look at what you're saying, do you think I'm that kind of person who lacks discretion?" Lin Han Shuang has a strong personality and is a career woman. At this moment, she was on the phone while also replying to emails at headquarters. "Xi Zhou is my nephew. I've watched him grow up since he was a child. How could I not know him? If he wasn't serious, he wouldn't have been with that person at all!"
Back in S City, the other leaders all went to write their "reflections on the visit".
