Surprise! The wife of a top star is actually a Nobel Prize winner

In this way, Qian Qing quickly signed the agreement with the other party. Now all that was left was to send the key via a courier flying thousands of miles. Dadong was the one who delivered the key!

Li Xiao left an hour early to pick up Chengcheng at the airport.

He had made arrangements with his father in advance and was going to drive his car to the airport to pick up his friend today.

In the morning, he drove his car to the car wash to have it cleaned. My father's car is a mid-to-high-end family car. He bought it two years ago, but he took good care of it. After cleaning, it looks like a new car.

Today's flight was not delayed, and Li Xiao picked up Qian Cencheng at the exit on time.

A nod to Qian Dong, who was following him from a distance, was considered a greeting. He had gotten used to not looking for Qian Dong subconsciously or going up to him when he was outside. At most, he would nod when he saw him, but most of the time, he didn't see him.

Sure enough, after Qian Dong saw Qian Cencheng successfully connect with him, he quickly disappeared into the crowd.

Qian Cencheng didn't have much luggage. Apart from the large bag that she always carried with her when she went out recently, she had a small and exquisite suitcase and a large, exquisite paper bag in her hand.

Li Xiao took the suitcase and was about to take the bag from her hand when she moved the hand holding the bag to the side and said, "Brother, this isn't heavy. I'll take it."

Li Xiao didn't argue. "Give me the backpack, then. You're not stuffing it full of all the little bits and bobs you prepared for me, are you? It looks a bit heavy, but it's not that complicated. If you have it, use it. If you don't, make do with it."

Qian Cencheng took off his backpack and handed it to him: "If I ask you to make do with it, it will be the day I fail in my duty. I can't do that. Besides, it's not heavy, I'm used to carrying it."

"I can't compete with you."

After putting their luggage away, they both got in the car. As they drove out of the airport, Li Xiao noticed the large paper bag Qian Cencheng had been holding while putting their luggage away. He had a guess in his mind, "Chencheng, could that bag you kept holding be the birthday present you told me you were going to give me?"

"Hey bro, how could you guess that this is your birthday present? You see it but don't say it out loud. Even if you guessed it, don't say it out loud. Otherwise, there will be no surprise." As he spoke, his voice dropped, as if he was a child whose surprise was ruined.

Li Xiao quickly said in a coaxing tone, "I'm sorry. Seeing you holding that bag so mysteriously reminded me of the gift you mentioned for my birthday two days ago. I was curious for a moment. Next time, I'll try not to reveal it. Please open it and let me see. I'm really curious."

Qian Cencheng hugged the bag tighter in his arms. "You can't open it now. It will be hard to pack it back if you open it. It took me a long time to wrap it beautifully. I was going to give it to you in advance when you returned to the Fog City that day, but I was waiting for these gift boxes I bought online. I didn't make it in time, and I wanted you to see them sooner, so I brought them this time. I guess you will have to take them back to the capital in a few days."

After hearing her say this, Li Xiao actually became somewhat curious about what was in the bag. However, the child seemed very persistent, so he decided to wait and see.

They had an appointment with Li Shenglei's brother to have the big dinner that Li Sheng wanted to treat them to in the evening. It was a bit early to go there directly, so they planned to go back to the hotel to let her rest first.

Li Xiao drove Qian Cencheng to the hotel she had booked, and accompanied her to check in. After taking her luggage into the room, he confirmed with her, "Do you really not need me to pick you up later?"

"Really? I'll just rest for an hour or so, and then I'll walk over. Don't worry, I've been around here for over three months, so I know the place well. Go find Brother Sheng and the others. By the way, you can't secretly open the bag in the trunk now. You have to open it after you get home."

"Got it. Promise, I'll take it home and look at it." I'm really getting more and more curious. It's so mysterious. The packaging was bought online, so maybe she made the stuff inside herself? I'm really looking forward to it!

Qian Cencheng didn't mean to be so mysterious. The main reason was that this was the first time he made a handicraft as a gift. If he opened it in front of her, she would feel a little embarrassed and a little afraid that he would not like it and it would be awkward. That's why she asked him to wait until he took it home to look at it.

After Li Xiao left, Qian Cencheng went to the bathroom to take a shower. After washing away her fatigue, she felt refreshed. She had originally thought about taking a nap, but now she was not sleepy at all. She leaned against the window with a glass of warm water and looked at the scenery outside.

This hotel was where Uncle Qian stayed at first. Later, when Sister Ruoxin came to the Foggy City and renovated her house, she and her friends also stayed here for a few nights. She seemed to have stayed in this room at that time. Looking at the familiar scenery outside the window, she felt a sense of security as if she had revisited an old place.

Foggy City, I, Qian Cencheng, am here again!

The restaurant they had arranged to have dinner at was the one they used to go to often. It was not far from the hotel where Qian Cencheng was staying and Haoyue Advertising, but it was a little further away from where Li Sheng and the others lived. Li Xiao and the other two had nothing to do, so they drove there first.

After they were seated in the private room, Li Sheng urged Li Xiao, "Give Xiao Chengcheng a call and ask her to come over early. We haven't seen each other in such a long time. Li Xiao, you too, didn't you think to wait for her and bring her to our house to play for a while before coming to dinner?"

"What do you know, you old man? The girl is exhausted from the journey. Shouldn't she rest and freshen up in the hotel before going out?"

Brother Lei was laughing on the side. Li Sheng had been making a lot of noise all the way, and his theme was: he wanted to see Xiao Chengcheng as soon as possible.

So when Qian Cencheng pushed open the door of the box, she received an unprecedentedly warm hug from Li Sheng, which made her look at Li Xiao a little helpless.

Li Xiao saw this and found it funny. He went over and pulled Li Sheng's hand away. "That's enough. Those who know you haven't seen each other for three months. Those who don't know would think it's been three years. Is it really that serious?"

"Of course you have time to talk nonsense here. You have been meeting Xiao Chengcheng in Beijing for the past three months without telling us. We have no information at all. You are a heartless guy." As he said this, he looked at Qian Cencheng with a resentful look.

Qian Chengcheng: “…”

I'm a little confused.

Brother Lei quickly called out: "Chengcheng, come and sit down. Don't pay attention to him. He is just over-stimulated by the fact that you are going to be Li Xiao's assistant. He will be normal after a while." Brother Lei helped Qian Cencheng pull out the chair next to Li Xiao and asked her to sit down first.

"Thank you, Brother Lei. This is the Beijing specialty snack I brought for you and Brother Sheng. You can try it. If you like it, I will send you more next time." Qian Cencheng handed the two gift boxes to Brother Lei and just sat down when Li Sheng came over from the other side.
