Chapter 23 77 Aviation Rocket Model
As midnight approached, Lin Youqian mustered up the courage to call Qi Xu. "Qiqi, I have something to do tonight, so I can't go over. I'll come home to be with you another day, okay?"
Qi Xu was a little disappointed and spoke in a gloomy tone. "Oh, I see!"
"Be good and go to bed early. Your husband loves you!"
This was the first time Lin Youqian referred to himself as her husband, and it was also the first time he expressed his feelings so directly. Because he felt guilty and was afraid that she would be angry, he used the most gentle tone to coax her.
Zhou Ying, who was eavesdropping in the dark, was so angry that her teeth could bleed. She yelled loudly on purpose.
"Ah Qian! The baby said she wants to hear you tell her a story!"
Faintly, Qi Xu seemed to hear a woman's voice calling Ah Qian.
"Where are you now? Who is next to you?"
Lin Youqian's heart nearly jumped out of his throat. He lied while pretending to be calm.
"Outside, drinking with my buddies. Hang up!"
Qi Xu was no fool. She clearly heard a woman's voice. "No, I want the video!"
Lin Youqian's back was covered with sweat, and his clenched fists were trembling slightly.
"Be good and go to sleep. We'll talk tomorrow!"
"Lin Youqian, I want a video call. I don't want to sleep!"
Since gentle coaxing didn't work, in order to conceal the existence of Zhou Ying and Tongtong, he could only harden his heart and be mean to her.
"Little stutterer, when we got married, did I tell you to be well-behaved, obedient, sensible, and know your place? And not to meddle in my affairs? Have you forgotten?"
With the sound of tears breaking, Qi Xu hung up the phone with a bang.
Lin Youqian's heart also skipped a beat, accompanied by a slight pain.
The little boy came over with a storybook in his hand and called out in a baby voice, "Daddy, tell me the story of The Brave Little Turtle!"
In fact, Tongtong had been sleepy for a long time, but was forced to stay awake by Zhou Ying's request. When the story was just beginning, she couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep on Lin Youqian's legs, shaking her head.
"The baby is asleep, you should also go to bed early. I'll come again tomorrow!"
Zhou Ying wanted to keep him. "Ah Qian, it's so late, why don't you just rest here? This presidential suite has two bedrooms, you can stay next door."
Lin Youqian firmly refused. "We have training tomorrow morning, so it's too late. You should get some rest early. I'll arrange accommodation and kindergarten for you."
He walked very quickly, as if he was afraid that if he stayed in the room for another second, he would be eaten.
The winter wind was particularly biting. He wandered outside his villa for a long time, but in the end did not go in.
He was afraid of Qi Xu's questioning, and even more afraid of her being upset. So before he figured out how to comfort her, he didn't dare to face it.
…
The next day, several old colleagues in the laboratory saw that he looked dejected and couldn't help asking.
"Master Pao, didn't you have meat last night? Why do you still look so unsatisfied? Could it be that you didn't eat enough?"
"roll!"
Lin Youqian's mind was in a mess. His mind was full of Qi Xu and the children, and he had no intention of studying military equipment at all.
"Who's free today? Go to the military kindergarten and ask about schooling for me. And then check out the surrounding area for suitable houses. I want a villa in a good environment, and the price doesn't matter."
Hao Shuai let out a mournful sigh. "Beijing's prince, you're so arrogant! Buying a house is as easy as drinking water. I've been with you for three years, and I haven't even found a toilet!"
Lin Youqian kicked him directly.
"Get lost! You've already taken away three of my luxury cars worth tens of millions, and you still have the nerve to say you didn't get anything? Believe it or not, I'll beat you to death!"
This statement aroused envy and hatred from everyone.
"Fuck! Over 30 million worth of luxury cars, Concubine Hao, even if you were fucked by Pao Ye, it would be worth it."
"If I had known earlier, I would have volunteered to be Pao Ye's bed partner. I'm more handsome and slutty than you, you're really getting a good deal!"
Hao Shuai, this foul mouth, got himself beaten up for no reason.
Others reached out to Lin Youqian to ask for a living. "Master Pao, I'm happy to run errands for you. Just give me some hard work fee!"
"Master Pao, is there anything else I can do for you? For example, fetching water, making tea, peeling fruit, or delivering toilet paper when you need help? I'm happy to help."
Lin Youqian wrote a whole page of ingredients and threw it out. "Someone go to the market and buy these vegetables for me. Ten thousand yuan for the errand!"
"Wow!" There was a burst of sighs in the weapons research room!
Everyone craned their necks, waiting for the artillery master to assign them tasks. You know, the monthly salary of an ordinary non-commissioned officer is only about 10,000 yuan.
"999 roses, the most beautiful ones!"
"Take my business card, go to the jewelry store, and ask them to send all the most beautiful diamond jewelry to Villa No. 1, Jingchen Huafu, and wait for me to come back and choose."
"The rest of you, hurry up and make a model of an aviation rocket numbered 77, 7 centimeters long, 7 centimeters high, and weighing 7 kilograms."
Everyone's eyes widened as they watched. What was going on, Pao Ye? Was he trying to chase a woman?
"Master Pao, today isn't Chinese Valentine's Day, why do you have to use the number 77?"
Lin Youqian glared at the person who spoke, and was very unhappy because he said the word "Qiqi".
"Stop talking nonsense. Get to work!"
Finally, before Qi Xu got off work, the rocket model was completed, and the kindergarten matters were also handled.
Regarding housing, there are currently no good properties available. The Military District Kindergarten is adjacent to a high-quality primary and secondary school, which concentrates the best educational resources. Therefore, it's difficult to find a good location, so you'll need to wait a little longer.
Lin Youqian placed the gifts and rocket model in the most conspicuous place in the living room, holding roses, hiding behind the door, waiting for Qi Xu to come in and surprise her.
However, she was not very happy to see the man holding the roses. She just called out lightly, "Mr. Lin, you are back."
In the past, she also called him Mr. Lin. But her soft tone was full of love, not so distant.
"Flowers, for you. Do you like them?"
Qi Xu smiled faintly.
“I like it, thank you!”
Then, Lin Youqian opened the jewelry box, and a whole set of dreamy ocean-themed diamond necklaces, earrings, and bracelet accessories shone brightly under the light.
"Do you like these? I'll help you bring them!"
Qi Xu turned her head away, avoiding his touch. "I'll keep it for now, okay? The hospital has regulations that doctors can't wear any jewelry."
"Tomorrow is the weekend, and you don't have to work. You can wear it!"
Qi Xu didn't want to try. Last night, she recalled everything Lin Youqian had said before.
From now on, all you can get is 200,000 yuan per month, don't even think about anything else. So, even if you try these things, what's the use? You can't take them with you when you leave.
"I'll be on duty tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. So, wear it when I'm resting!"
"What shifts are you on this weekend?" Lin Youqian finally cleared out both days of the weekend just to spend time with her, but she actually had to be on duty.
"Dr. Tang's child is sick, so I'm covering for her. If you don't believe me, go ask her."
Doctor Tang was originally planning to switch with someone else, but Qi Xu volunteered to help. Doctor Tang was so happy that he kept praising her for being a good kid.
Because she has a baby face, the director always praises her as a "good child". These three words are really appropriate for her.
