Chapter 57
After Lu Xiaoqiao finished speaking, Zheng Yan fell silent. Li Na laughed, “What? You dare to hit someone?”
Lu Xiaoqiao glanced at Zheng Yan.
“Ask her if I dare?”
After saying that, he walked past the two and went downstairs first. πππ .π πΎπππ1.πΎπ ²
When Lu Xiaoqiao moved, Zhou Qizheng and Li Yuxuan came once before and knew the address, but his girlfriend didn’t let him come so early, so now he could only quietly park the car in a remote corner of the street.
He didn’t dare to drive out until he received her call.
Because the New Year is coming soon and Christmas is approaching, the street lamp poles on the street are hung with big red Chinese knots, and even the trees on both sides of the street are decorated with lights and various kinds of shooting star lights.
When Lu Xiaoqiao was just sighing at the beautiful flowing lights like the stars above, a black Bentley stopped by the street where she was standing.
Lu Xiaoqiao blinked in surprise: “So soon? You have been waiting here all the time?”
“Well, hurry up and get in the car!”
After Lu Xiaoqiao got in the car and fastened her seat belt, he restarted the car and drove away.
“Didn’t I tell you to wait for my call before coming over? You have been waiting for a long time, right?”
Zhou Qizheng raised his eyebrows and asked instead of answering: “If I wait for you to finish the call before driving over, will you just stand outside and freeze?”
Lu Xiaoqiao didn’t expect him to be so thoughtful: “I’m afraid you are busy with work, don’t waste time picking me up.”
Taking advantage of the red light, Zhou Qizheng held her hand.
“Work is always busy, and picking you up can’t be considered a waste of time. I don’t want you to stand outside and freeze because of waiting for me.”
So he can put aside his work and wait for her?
Sometimes Lu Xiaoqiao really couldn’t understand what Zhou Qizhen saw in her. He was so outstanding and treated her so well, but she didn’t want him to be in the public eye because of her own concerns.
Suddenly felt a little sorry for him.
She calmed down her disturbed heartbeat and said as if she had made up her mind: “I will take you to meet my aunt after the New Year.”
Zhou Qizheng’s eyes were filled with joy. He said while driving: “There is still half a month, I will prepare it then.” Tomorrow at work, I will ask Secretary Ding to check what gifts should be brought when meeting the woman’s family for the first time.
Lu Xiaoqiao was a little speechless. Knowing that he had misunderstood, she said with a stiff upper lip: “I am talking about the year of New Year’s Eve.”
Zhou Qizheng: “…”
Seeing that he hadn’t spoken for a long time, she thought he was angry. She looked at his face and could not see any emotion.
The big hand with distinct bones was hitting the steering wheel. After turning back, the slender fingers tapped twice, and then he said again: “I thought… it was to let me become a regular employee in advance!”
I was so happy in vain!
Lu Xiaoqiao was stunned and said, “New Year’s Eve is not far away. The New Year is early this year.”
“You will definitely go home for the New Year, right? How about this, I will pick you up and then go directly to your house to meet your family?”
“Ah? It’s a bit too fast!” He just said he was going to meet his aunt, how come he has to meet his parents in just one sentence?
“Not too fast, we have known each other for quite a while!” Zhou Qizhen thought to himself, it’s been ten years!
Lu Xiaoqiao glanced at his expectant eyes, and it was difficult to say no, so she nodded and said, “Yeah!”
Her promise made Zhou Qi Zheng a little excited, and even his voice was filled with a hint of joy: “I haven’t been to the Northeast yet. How long do you plan to stay at home during the New Year? I can make arrangements in advance.”
Lu Xiaoqiao thought for a while and said, “My grandma is going to have a birthday party this year, that’s my grandmother.”
Afraid that Zhou Qi Zheng didn’t know who she was talking about, Lu Xiaoqiao explained to him and then said, “I heard from my mother that it will be on the third day of the New Year, so I guess I will have to rush back on the sixth or seventh day of the New Year. It depends on whether I can buy a high-speed rail ticket by then.”
Zhou Qi Zheng was surprised and said, “You take the high-speed rail home when it’s so far? Why not take a plane?”
Lu Xiaoqiao glanced at him. This was the difference between the two. He only thought about convenience and speed, and didnβt consider the wallet at all!
βDuring the New Year, air tickets are several times more expensive than high-speed rail tickets, and high-speed rail is also very convenient! It only takes more than eight hours to get there!β
Zhou Qizhen wanted to show his enthusiasm: βIβll help you arrange the trip home.β
Lu Xiaoqiao tilted her head and glanced at him: βNo, Iβve made an appointment with my roommates and friends to go back together, so donβt treat me specially.β
Zhou Qizhen didnβt say anything, and it was unknown whether he had heard it or not.
When they arrived at the barbecue restaurant, one was responsible for grilling and the other for eating.
Zhou Qizhen put a piece of grilled beef belly on Lu Xiaoqiaoβs plate.
“We can’t eat barbecue often in the future!”
Lu Xiaoqiao was stunned for a moment and asked him, “Why?” ππ¦π.π₯ππππ¦1.βπ
Zhou Qi was thinking back to when he was in the office before. Li Yuxuan happened to be there too. He asked someone to take a seat in the barbecue restaurant. Li Yuxuan teased him about what he said.
“You take your girlfriend to eat barbecue every day, aren’t you afraid of making her get a sore throat? If people don’t know, they would think you are going bankrupt and are so poor that you can only take your woman to eat barbecue!”
After thinking about Li Yuxuan’s words for a while, she felt that he was right. She was only concerned about making her happy before and didn’t consider health issues: “I’m afraid you will get a sore throat if you eat too much.”
Lu Xiaoqiao dipped the beef in the condiments, wrapped it with lettuce, put it in her mouth, and said vaguely: “I’m not afraid of getting a sore throat.”
Zhou Qizhen stroked her head: “Be good, I’ll bring you here once a month in the future.”
Facing her boyfriend’s father’s “education method”, Lu Xiaoqiao held back her laughter and said mischievously: “Got it! Uncle.”
Zhou Qizhen was stunned, then said helplessly and dotingly: “Naughty!”
…
After dinner, the two just drove downstairs.
Saw Zhao Zhizhi arguing with a short, slightly fat man in an emotional state, and Zhao Jia was trying to persuade him.
Lu Xiaoqiao hurriedly got out of the car and asked Zhao Jia what happened.
Without waiting for Zhao Jia to speak, Zhao Zhizhi pointed at the short man opposite and said to Lu Xiaoqiao in an emotional manner: “This is my landlord. I just moved in the house for a few days and he asked me to move out. He said he didn’t want to rent it out anymore. He didn’t even wait a day and came here to tell me in the middle of the night. He insisted that I move out tomorrow. Is this how you bully people?”
The short man was unhappy after hearing what Zhao Zhizhi said: “How did I bully you? I sold my house. Does it bother you if I sold my house? Besides, I’ve compensated you, what else do you want?”
“Being rich is so great! Is this a matter of money? I didn’t say I wouldn’t move, but there has to be a deadline, right? How can you move just like that? It’s almost the end of the year. Where do you want me to move to? You can’t even wait until after the New Year, and you’re selling the house. Why did you rent it out if you wanted to sell it? Aren’t you cheating me?”
The short man waved his hand, indicating that he didn’t want to say anything more: “Anyway, I’ll come to collect the house tomorrow afternoon. You have one day to move out, or I’ll call the police.” After the man finished speaking, he turned and left.
Zhao Zhizhi’s hands were shaking with anger. He gasped and pointed at the man’s back and cursed: “You think you are so great just because you have a few stinky money!” Just after he finished speaking, he saw Zhou Qizheng standing next to Lu Xiaoqiao. Thinking of what he had just said to the landlord, he felt a little embarrassed. After all, this landlord was really rich.
“Mr. Zhou.” Zhao Zhizhi and Zhao Jia greeted Zhou Qizheng at the same time.
“Yeah.” Zhou Qizheng nodded in response, and then said: “Do you need any help?”
Zhao Zhizhi didn’t dare to let someone of his status participate in the trivial matters of his ordinary people. He waved his hand and refused: “No, Mr. Zhou, thank you, I will put my things together today and go to the agency tomorrow to see it.”
Zhou Qizheng nodded: “Okay, tell me if you need help.”
“Okay, thank you Mr. Zhou.” “
Mr. Zhou, I’ll go upstairs to clean up first, you and Xiaoqiao… go ahead.”
Zhao Zhizhi didn’t know what to say. How could a couple who just fell in love say goodbye without a goodnight kiss? He still understood this. After saying goodbye to Zhou Qizheng, he took Zhao Jia upstairs.
Zhou Qizhen was very satisfied with Zhao Zhizhi’s vision.
