My friend's uncle took a fancy to me

"I'm afraid if we announce it too early, something unexpected might happen. It doesn't matter to me, but nothing can happen to her."

Li Yuxuan raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and understood in his heart: "Then how did you explain it to others? You are clearly affectionate like a love-brained person, don't let people think you are like Shen Yi."

Shen Yi next to him said unwillingly: "Hey hey hey! How can you say that? Why are you dragging me into this?"

"You're still unwilling? You're really not as good as Lao Zhou in this regard."

Zhou Qizhen ignored the bickering between the two and said lightly: "I didn't dare to tell the truth. I was afraid of scaring her and afraid that she would think too much." How could he bear to tell her those dark things in the business world that are like a battlefield.

Shen Yi frowned: "Will my sister-in-law feel wronged? Don't think that you don't want to make it public."

Zhou Qizheng sighed softly, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It seems to me that she doesn't want to announce it so early even more than I do."

Li Yuxuan knew that the two had already registered, so he followed Shen Yi and changed his words, saying, "Actually, if you think about it, it's just like that. Although my sister-in-law is young, she is very clear-headed. Marriage is a matter between two people. I don't care whether you, an outsider, know it or not."

Zhou Qizheng looked at him and said, "Well, so I want to make it up to her."

"How to make up for it?"

"Please go on the business trip for me! I want to spend two days with my wife."

Li Yuxuan: "..."

"It's not that I don't want to help you, brother! I really can't replace you this time. The main reason is that they said they only want to talk to you, and there's nothing I can do even if I go."

"Old Zhou, you can go on your business trip without any worries. When you get off work in the evening, you can just let your sister-in-law take my car. I'll take her home and it's on our way."

Shen Yi thought that it would only benefit him to please Momo's friends.

Unexpectedly, I heard Zhou Qizheng say, "Stay away from my wife."

……

After get off work in the evening, Lu Xiaoqiao and Zhao Jia took the car arranged by Zhou Qizhen to go home.

The driver helped Lu Xiaoqiao move the luggage upstairs before turning and leaving.

After they entered the house, Zhao Jia slumped down on the sofa. "Ah! It's so comfortable to have a private car to take me there!"

Lu Xiaoqiao smiled without saying anything, put down her luggage, and quickly picked up Tuanzi who was wagging his tail at her.

"Tuanzi, did you miss me? I feel a lot fatter. It seems you ate a lot of meat during the Chinese New Year!"

Zhao Jia looked at Lu Xiaoqiao holding Tuanzi and then remembered to ask, "Xiaoqiao, you and Mr. Zhou are getting married, so do you still want to continue living here?"

Lu Xiaoqiao sat on the sofa holding Tuanzi and scratched his chin: "Stay! Aren't you still not married?"

"Ah? So you're planning on making Mr. Zhou a vegetarian? That's too cruel!"

Lu Xiaoqiao blushed and said, "Not really. I usually live with him. I only come back to stay with him when he's on a business trip."

Zhao Jia let out a long "Oh" and then teased, "So it's half meat and half vegetable!"

"Sister Jia, you are such a..."

After playing for a while, they heard a few light knocks on the door.

Zhao Jia was stunned for a moment. Could it be the neighbor across the street?

When he reached the door, he looked through the peephole, then turned to Lu Xiaoqiao and smiled, "Your imperial kitchen is here!"

"what?"

While Lu Xiaoqiao was stunned, Zhao Jia opened the door and saw the assistant who had taken Lu Xiaoqiao in several times before said, "Excuse me, is Miss Lu here?"

Lu Xiaoqiao heard the voice and hurriedly got up from the sofa. She walked to the door and saw that it was the assistant. She was a little surprised and asked, "Why are you here?"

The assistant smiled and said, "Hello, Miss Lu, Happy New Year. Mr. Zhou asked me to come and bring you dinner."

After he finished speaking, he stepped aside and said to the other person outside, "Put on your shoe covers and don't dirty the floor tiles in Miss Lu's house."

"It's okay, no need to go through so much trouble, just come in!" Lu Xiaoqiao made room for the two of them.

"No trouble."

The assistant and another person placed several bags of packed dinner on the table: "Miss Lu, do you want to eat now? I'll help you take it out and set it up."

Lu Xiaoqiao waved her hands hurriedly: "Don't be so polite, I can do it myself, I'll wait for my colleagues to come back and eat together."

Looking at the bags on the table, it seems like they've delivered quite a few things just like last time. Looking at the time, Momo should be getting off work soon, so it's a good time for us to eat together.

"Okay, oh yeah, I forgot about the fruit!"

The assistant returned to the door, brought in several boxes of fruit that were outside, and placed them next to the coffee table.

"Ms. Lu, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first! If you have any questions, just call me." After saying that, he handed Lu Xiaoqiao a business card.

Lu Xiaoqiao took it and said, "Okay, thank you for coming all the way here."

"Miss Lu, you're welcome! This is what we should do."

After seeing off the assistant, Zhao Jia looked at the food on the table and then at the fine fruits packed in gift boxes.

"Why don't you just let me, the CEO's brother-in-law, live alone! Look, if you come back to live here, we can still have free food and drinks, and I can even get a ride home comfortably."

"I have no objection. I'll tell your brother-in-law later." Lu Xiaoqiao said with a smile.

"No, no, no, sister is just joking, hehe!"

When they opened the fruit gift boxes, they saw two boxes of strawberries and a box of cherries. There was even a watermelon in one of the boxes.

Lu Xiaoqiao felt sweet in her heart. Before going to bed last night, she complained that the quilt was too hot and she wanted to eat watermelon. So today, watermelon was delivered to her!

"Xiao Qiao, look how nice Mr. Zhou is. I'm so lucky! Can I have a taste of these cherries that are as big as ping-pong balls?"

Lu Xiaoqiao suppressed a smile and said, "I now seriously suspect that Zhou Qizheng didn't buy it for me. He just wanted to bribe you to help him keep an eye on me."

"Of course I have to. Starting today, I'll get up a few times in the middle of the night to help Mr. Zhou keep an eye on you."

"What are you looking at me for? Are there any male mosquitoes near my bed?"

"Hahaha!"

They were laughing happily when they heard cursing coming from outside the door.

The two looked at each other, and Lu Xiaoqiao said, "It sounds like my brother-in-law's voice!"

Zhao Jia stood up suddenly: "That's him! Holy shit! We're done for! Those three-gun thing are really coming!"

She said and walked towards the door.

"Ah? What's wrong, Sister Jia?" Lu Xiaoqiao also hurried over.

When Zhao Jia opened the door, she saw Zhao Zhizhi talking sweetly to the iron gate of the neighbor's house opposite. Qin Momo pulled back Zhao Zhizhi who was about to knock on the door.

Zhao Jia went up and kicked him: "Zhao Zhizhi, what are you doing? You'll disturb the neighbors!"

Zhao Zhizhi didn't react at all to being kicked. He continued pointing at the house across the street and yelling, "Mr. Shen, if you have the guts, come out here! You're even running to the opposite door! How dare you do this? You're so shameless, you jerk..."

"Zhao Zhizhi, don't be like this. He really didn't mean that. It's possible that he just happened to buy the house here." Qin Momo held Zhao Zhizhi tightly, afraid that he would really rush over and knock on the door.

Just as the few of them were in a stalemate, clear footsteps were heard coming up the stairs from downstairs.
