Seeing Wang Qiang standing there in a daze, Nao Nao asked, "Why aren't you leaving? You're not going to regret it now, are you?"
Wang Qiang nodded.
Nao Nao reiterated, "You two are truly an oddball. So what do we do now? Let me tell you, if you want to break off the engagement, you can do it yourself. I'm not going to do it for you."
Wang Qiang gritted his teeth: "I won't call off the engagement. Let's go to your house for dinner."
"Really no refund?"
No refund.
Nao Nao shook her head: "I really don't know what you two are thinking?"
When Nao Nao brought Wang Qiang back, Xiao Man was chatting with Xiao Hei in the yard. After You You graduated from university, Xiao Man gradually handed over the business to her. Now, Xiao Man basically doesn't care about the company anymore.
Nao Nao introduced Xiao Man and Wang Qiang.
Wang Qiang: "Hello, Auntie."
Xiaoman smiled and said, "Hello. Please come in."
Nao Nao: "Mom, what do you want to eat?"
Xiaoman: "You decide what to do."
“Okay.” Nao Nao looked at Wang Qiang and said, “Let’s go.”
"Huh?! Oh, okay."
Nao Nao led Wang Qiang to the kitchen, picked out some vegetables, and put them in Wang Qiang's hands: "Don't just stand there, help me wash the vegetables."
Wang Qiang looked at the vegetables in his hand and then at Nao Nao: "You're cooking?"
"Um."
Is the food you cooked edible?
"Nonsense. If it's inedible, I won't cook it. Go wash the vegetables. My dad will be back soon."
Wang Qiang looked into the yard: "Your mother can't cook?"
Nao Nao took out the cutting board and knife: "My mother doesn't like to cook."
"Then why don't you hire a nanny?"
Nao Nao thought to herself: "My dad finds us annoying even at home, so why hire a nanny? My dad doesn't like having outsiders in the house."
While washing the vegetables, Wang Qiang asked, "What do your dad and mom eat when you're not home? The cafeteria?"
“If I’m not home, my dad does it.”
"What?!" Wang Qiang dropped the vegetables he was holding into the sink. He was already surprised that Nao Nao could cook. Now Nao Nao was saying that Han Bin usually did the cooking. "Your dad cooks?!"
"Um."
Wang Qiang's eyes widened in surprise. "Your father is a commander?"
"Can't the commander cook?"
"This...aren't you afraid people will laugh at your father?"
“My dad doesn’t care about any of that.” Nao Nao said when she saw Wang Qiang was too busy being surprised to wash the vegetables, “Stop talking and wash the vegetables.”
"Oh, okay. Your dad really doesn't mind?"
"Um."
When Han Bin got off work, he greeted Xiao Man and then headed to the kitchen.
When Nao Nao heard Han Bin and Xiao Man greet each other, she said loudly, "Dad, you don't need to come over. The food will be ready soon."
Han Bin: "Okay. Make more of your mother's favorite dishes."
Nao Nao: "Okay."
Wang Qiang was a little skeptical: "Your dad is really good to your mom."
"Of course."
"Should I go and say hello to your father?"
"No need. We'll go after the food is ready."
"good."
The food will be ready in a little while.
Nao Nao and Wang Qiang brought the food out of the kitchen.
After placing the food on the table, Wang Qiang saluted Han Bin and said, "Good morning, Commander."
Han Bin smiled. "Don't call me Commander at home. Call me Uncle. You're Wang Qiang, right?"
"Um."
"Not bad. You look quite energetic. Please sit down."
"Okay. Thank you, Uncle."
After finishing their meal, Nao Nao and Wang Qiang washed the pots and pans and then drove away.
Wang Qiang started spacing out as soon as he got in the car.
Half an hour later, Nao Nao couldn't stand it anymore and called Wang Qiang a few times, but Wang Qiang didn't respond at all.
Nao Nao nudged Wang Qiang: "What are you thinking about?"
"I want to go to Tsinghua University. Can you take me there?"
"You're not going to call off the engagement right now, are you?"
"no."
"Then what are you going to do?"
"I..." Wang Qiang's face flushed suspiciously. "Don't ask anymore. Anyway, it's not a broken engagement."
"Alright then." Nao Nao changed direction. "I don't need to relay the message this time, right?"
Wang Qiang scratched his head: "No need."
"That's good."
Upon arriving at Tsinghua University, Nao Nao dropped off Wang Qiang and drove away.
Wang Qiang took a deep breath before going inside.
Lu Xuan was about to go to the research lab when she heard someone calling her from downstairs: "Lu Xuan! Lu Xuan! Lu Xuan!..."
Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment. Then, she rushed out of the dormitory. Only when she saw Wang Qiang did she believe that it really was Wang Qiang calling her: "You actually came to find me?! Looks like you've been quite provoked. Tell me, what did that Liu Mengqi do to you?"
"She..." If she had tried to get information from me, she would be in jail by now. Thinking this, Wang Qiang's resolve hardened: "Lu Xuan, marry me. I'll treat you well."
Lu Xuan looked at Wang Qiang: "Didn't you complain that I'm smarter and more capable than you?"
"I don't mind anymore."
Lu Xuan looked at Wang Qiang: "You've changed so much. It seems that Liu Mengqi didn't just want to use you to get close to your comrade. Could it be..." Thinking of Wang Qiang's profession, Lu Xuan's eyes widened in surprise: "Could it be that Liu Mengqi is a spy?!"
Wang Qiang remained silent.
But Lu Xuan had grown up with him since childhood, and she knew she was right just by looking at Wang Qiang's expression. Lu Xuan sighed inwardly, "Qiangzi, your luck is just too bad!"
Wang Qiang's eyes flickered: "Don't make wild guesses."
"I know." Lu Xuan patted Wang Qiang's head. "Were you scared?"
Wang Qiang remained silent.
Lu Xuan knew why Wang Qiang had proposed to her. "Don't be afraid, I'll keep an eye on things for you from now on. With me around, no one can fool you. By the way, how did you dare to propose to me in person?"
"I'm having lunch at our commander's house today. Do you know who usually cooks at our commander's house?"
"Since you're asking that, then..." Lu Xuan thought for a moment, "Your commander?"
"Hmm." Wang Qiang looked at Lu Xuan and said, "Our commander doesn't mind cooking for his wife every day, so why should I mind that you're smarter and more capable than me?"
Lu Xuan laughed: "You've finally figured it out. If you still couldn't figure it out, I might have given up."
"Give up?! Didn't you always want to marry me?"
"Yes. But you've always been too afraid to get married."
“I…” Wang Qiang scratched his head: “You’re too smart. I’m like a ghost in front of you.”
So you don't dare to marry me?
Wang Qiang nodded: "However, I've figured it out now. Someone as stupid as me should find a smart woman to marry. Otherwise, people will sell me out and I'll still be helping them count the money."
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "Your mother used to say the same thing."
Wang Qiang suddenly remembered: "If only I had listened to my mother earlier. Xuanxuan, do you think my mother would think I'm teasing her if she heard I wanted to marry you?" Wang Qiang's mother had long wanted him to marry Lu Xuan, but Wang Qiang had always been unwilling.
"Does your mother know that you and Liu Mengqi have broken up?"
"Know."
"Your mother will definitely think you've suffered some kind of trauma, which is why you want to marry me. I think we should wait two months before talking to her."
"good."
Meanwhile, Xiaoman received a call from Youyou. As soon as Youyou finished speaking, Xiaoman frowned. "Are you serious?"
