My friend's uncle took a fancy to me

Zhou Qi was about to pull the quilt down a little, but Lu Xiaoqiao held on tightly and refused to let go.

"Don't get bored!" Seeing that she didn't move, Zhou Qizheng continued, "If you don't come out, I'll have to lie down on the bed too!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he actually got on the bed and was about to get under the quilt.

Lu Xiaoqiao was so frightened that she pulled the quilt down a little, revealing only her eyes, and said coquettishly, "Why are you like this?"

Zhou Qi was quietly looking at the still shy Lu Xiaoqiao, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. Then he lay down opposite her, leaning sideways with his head supported by his hands, looking at her gently.

"Does it still hurt?" Zhou Qizhen asked softly.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaoqiao's cheeks flushed red again and she just shook her head randomly.

Zhou Qizheng stroked her head and said, "Do you want to continue sleeping? Do you want to get up and eat something before going back to sleep?"

Lu Xiaoqiao said in a soft voice, "I'm not going to sleep anymore. What time is it now? Where's my phone?"

Zhou Qi was handing her the phone. Lu Xiaoqiao was about to take it when she suddenly remembered that she was not dressed yet.

He just stretched out his hand slightly and took his phone.

I touched the phone screen and looked at the time. I was stunned. It was already past one in the afternoon?!

Looking at WeChat again, it showed several messages sent by Lin Lin.

nine in the morning.

Lin Lin: [My grandpa said that you and uncle will return to the old house today?]

Ten o'clock in the morning.

Lin Lin: [Have you left? Where did you end up?]

Ten twenty in the morning.

Lin Lin: [I know you like pickled fish. Grandma said we hired a chef who makes delicious pickled fish. I'm just doing this to my aunt-in-law! /snicker/]

11:30 am.

Lin Lin: [What are you doing? You're not replying to messages. My aunt, are you coming today?]

It’s already past one in the afternoon, and Lin Lin’s last message was an hour and a half ago.

Lu Xiaoqiao no longer cared about being shy. She looked at Zhou Qizheng and asked in a low voice, "Where are my clothes?"

Zhou Qizhen awkwardly shifted his gaze to the crumpled cartoon puppy pajamas on the sofa beside the bed.

Then he stood up and said, "I'll get you another set. The button on your set is broken."

I don’t know if it was because the buttons on his pajamas were too tight yesterday, or because he was too nervous and excited, but he couldn’t unbutton them. In his anxiety, he tore them all apart!

Zhou Qizhen took out a goose yellow two-piece suspender suit from the cloakroom. It was a suspender skirt inside and a long-sleeved coat outside.

It’s better to have it than not. Lu Xiaoqiao reached out and took it: “You get out.”

Zhou Qi was just about to speak when his cell phone rang.

When Lu Xiaoqiao saw him go out to answer the phone, he closed the bedroom door for her. Only then did she feel relieved and crawled out of the quilt to put on her pajamas.

The moment I got out of bed and stood up, my legs were shaking so much that I almost fell down. It took me a long time to adjust before I endured the discomfort and walked to the bathroom.

While washing up, she brushed her teeth while looking at herself in the mirror. Her eyes seemed to contain a pool of spring water, and her eyes were as charming as silk. Her hair was hanging down a little messily, which added a bit of charm. Below the neck, spreading along the skin, there were traces of ambiguity.

Looking at these, she suddenly remembered that he said he liked her last night. Lu Xiaoqiao covered her face and blushed again.

Lu Xiaoqiao tidied herself up and went to the cloakroom to find a piece of clothing with a higher collar to change into.

Just after I changed, Zhou Qizhen, who had been missing from the bathroom, came in.

"Qiao Qiao, Dad just called and asked if we still want to go to the old house today. Should we go?"

Lu Xiaoqiao hung up her pajamas and said, "Of course I have to go. Why didn't you wake me up this morning? Lin Lin has already asked me several times on WeChat. I don't know how to explain it to her when I go there later."

Zhou Qizheng walked behind her and hugged her waist: "You seemed too tired last night, so I want you to sleep a little longer."

Lu Xiaoqiao ignored his thoughtfulness and muttered, "I'm not tired."

When he realized what he had said, he immediately regretted it and wanted to slap himself.

But before he could open his mouth to explain, Zhou Qizheng's slow voice came from above his head, with a tone that seemed to be smiling: "Is that so! It seems that I was not hard enough last night. I will try harder tonight, okay, honey, huh?"

Lu Xiaoqiao was stunned when she heard this. What a joke! Last night's experience had already made her unforgettable. If she tried any harder, wouldn't it be like sending her to hell?

I was so scared that I stuttered: "No, no need, last night, you worked very hard last night, really!"

Zhou Qizheng turned her around, lowered his eyes to look at her, and smiled playfully: "Really? I'm glad my wife isn't tired."

Lu Xiaoqiao felt uneasy when she heard his smile, but she felt relieved after hearing his last words.

But this time of relief made Lu Xiaoqiao feel so regretful that she wanted to cry every time she thought about it, even many years later.

……

When we arrived at the Zhou family's old house, it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon.

As soon as the car drove into the yard, we saw Zhou's father and Zhao Yaqin waiting there with smiles in their eyes.

Lu Xiaoqiao quickly opened the car door and got out: "Uncle, aunt, happy new year."

"Happy New Year."

The two old men looked at Lu Xiaoqiao with loving eyes.

After a few people went in, Zhao Yaqin hurried to the kitchen and brought out a small stew pot with a lid.

Zhao Yaqin had long felt that Lu Xiaoqiao was her lucky star, but she didn't expect it to be true. Just after noon today, Zhou Qizhen actually took the initiative to send her a message, saying that Xiaoqiao had not eaten yet, and asked her to please prepare some supplements. He called her aunt again. Because of the two words "aunt", she cried for more than half an hour.

"Xiao Qiao, come and drink it quickly. Qi Zheng said that you ate breakfast too early and didn't eat lunch because you weren't hungry at noon. You must be hungry now. Auntie specially stewed bird's nest for you."

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoqiao looked at Zhou Qizhen. She didn't expect him to be so thoughtful. She had been complaining about him in her heart on the way here. Now, less than a week after registering with him, she had already gone hungry for two meals.

Now looking at the bird's nest in front of me, my heart feels sweet.

The latter looked away guiltily. He only sent a message to Zhao Yaqin. Perhaps because he was afraid that the girl would be shy, his aunt made up such a story.

It was Lu Xiaoqiao’s first time eating bird’s nest and she thought it was quite delicious. She ate up the entire pot.

Lin Lin watched her exaggerated eating and asked in confusion, "What were you doing last night? I texted you all morning and you didn't reply. You woke up late, ate late, and now you're starving?"

"Go, Lin Lin, go play somewhere else and let Xiao Qiao eat quickly." Zhao Yaqin looked at Lu Xiaoqiao's unnatural expression and knew what was going on.

Lin Lin curled her lips and said, "I'm going upstairs to get a gift for Xiao Qiao."

"Then hurry up and come back slowly. I have something to say to Xiao Qiao."

Lin Lin: "..."

After Lin Lin left, Zhao Yaqin sat on the chair next to Lu Xiaoqiao and looked at her with a loving face.

"Are you still hungry, Xiao Qiao? Do you want the kitchen to make you something else?"

Lu Xiaoqiao shook her head and said with a smile, "Thank you, Auntie. I've almost finished eating. I need to save some space for the pickled fish tonight."
