Chapter 879 Safety Lock
Chapter 879 Safety Lock
On the tree-lined road outside the door, Li Qiao had just driven out when the sports car parked by the side of the road honked its horn.
Zong Yue, who left half an hour earlier, never left, obviously waiting for Li Qiao to come out.
Li Qiao stopped the car and lowered the window, Zong Yue got out of the car and asked tentatively, "Qiaoqiao, do you want to go back to the mansion?"
"Well, sister-in-law is waiting for me?"
Zong Yue nodded with a smile, "I also brought you and Uncle Shaoyan some special products, and put them in Jingwan Villa. If you go back to the mansion, you can just pick them up on the way."
Li Qiao stared at the smile between her brows and eyes, bent her lips, "Okay, let's go."
In a blink of an eye, two cars merged into the traffic flow one after the other.
In Jingwan Villa, Zong Yue walked briskly into the living room with Li Qiao on his arm.
Zong Yue poured a glass of water, turned on the TV and asked Li Qiao to wait, and then hurried upstairs.
On her trip back to the Imperial Capital, she not only bought special products, but also prepared an ingenious little gift for Li Qiao.
Zong Yue walked into the bedroom, bent down to open the bedside table, and looked down, "Huh? Why is it gone?"
She wrapped the gift in wrapping paper and put it in the bedside table last night, but now it disappeared.
Zong Yue searched for a long time, but still found nothing.
She stood there frowning, worried that Li Qiao would wait too long, after thinking about it, she decided to go downstairs first.
However, the moment he walked out of the master bedroom and passed the study, Zong Yue faintly heard coughing.
She paused, came to the door of the study, gently pushed the open door, and as the gap opened, Li Jun's figure came into view impressively.
Zong Yue was a little surprised, and was silent for two seconds before asking, "Aren't you on a business trip?"
While speaking, her eyes skipped the boss's desk, and she was surprised to see the small box wrapped by her own hand was placed beside Li Jun's hand.
Zong Yue hurried over, reaching out to take it.
But Li Jun was faster than her, the moment she pinched the box, he pressed his palm on the back of her hand, "Isn't this a gift for me?"
"Of course not." Zong Yue said without hesitation, "Give it to me quickly."
Li Jun held her with his backhand, with thick black eyes hidden in his eyes, "Is that...someone gave you?"
He was indeed on a business trip, and when he learned that Zong Yue had returned to Nanyang today, he rushed back from the meeting without even eating lunch.
As a result, Zong Yue was not at home, and he suffered from the old problem of stomachache again.
When I was looking for a medicine box, I accidentally found this small box in the bedside table.
Palm-sized and exquisitely packaged, if it wasn't an expensive gift, she wouldn't have put it in the closet.
Li Jun didn't open it, but took it to the study, looked at the gift box and pondered for a long time.
At this time, Li Jun grabbed Zong Yue's hand, suppressed the discomfort of stomach cramps, raised his head slightly, "Are you still angry with me?"
Zong Yue felt the temperature from her fingertips, sighed silently and denied, "No, Qiaoqiao is still downstairs, I'll go down first..."
"If you're not angry, why didn't you tell me when you went to the Imperial Capital?" Li Jun pursed his lips, his stomach ached, and his forehead was covered with fine sweat, "Where is the stomach medicine?"
Zong Yue was about to withdraw his hand, but was startled when he heard the sound, "Stomach hurts again?"
Li Jun responded, rubbing the back of her hand with his thumb unconsciously, "Well, it's nothing serious, maybe I didn't eat at noon."
According to the usual practice, he believed that Zong Yue would take care of him immediately.
However, this time, Li Jun was disappointed.
Zong Yue was thinking about giving the gift to Li Qiao, but just said "oh", "The stomach medicine is in the second drawer on your left. I'll go downstairs first, and I'll order food for you later."
order?
Li Jun's eyes flickered, showing some unknown embarrassment.
He thought she would hand him a cup of hot water and prepare a warm lunch.
Xu Shi was used to Zong Yue taking care of her personally, she suddenly became so cold, which made Li Jun feel inexplicably at a loss.
Zong Yue seemed to have changed, no longer dominated by him, no longer talked and laughed with him.
Calm, cold, simple...
no.
Li Jun recited these two words silently in his heart, and even desperately wanted to catch Zong Yue and ask her what she could do to not get angry.
However, due to his natural machismo, Li Jun sat firmly on the mountain and couldn't let go of his high-end airs. He could only watch Zong Yue walk out of the study room with a gift box.
...
Downstairs, Zong Yue hid behind his back with one hand, and returned to Li Qiao's side with a special product in the other.
She put the special products on the tea table, and said with a smile when she took a seat: "These boxes of special products are all old eight pieces from Dijing, preserved plums and so on, and two cigarettes from Dijing, which are for Uncle Shaoyan."
Li Qiao thanked her softly, noticed Zong Yue's movement of hiding behind her back with one hand, raised her eyebrows, "Is there anything else?"
Zong Yue pursed her lips, and stuffed the small box into her arms, "Open it and have a look."
"What is it?" Li Qiao looked suspiciously, the square box was wrapped with a layer of sky blue wrapping paper.
Zong Yue didn't speak, and motioned for her to take it apart.
Li Qiao glanced at her, and tore off the wrapping paper in twos and twos. What came into view was a transparent glass box, which contained a shiny silver safety lock and two safety bracelets.
"Qiaoqiao, congratulations on having a baby." Zong Yue pursed her lips and snickered, "I didn't know it at first, but some time ago I saw my parents decorating the baby room, and I found out after asking, it turned out that you are pregnant."
As she said that, she pointed to the safety lock and explained: "I originally wanted to buy a gold one, but I heard that a newborn baby should wear silver instead of gold, so I bought a sterling silver one first."
It was the first time Li Qiao had heard that her parents were decorating the baby room.
She looked at the pair of small safety bracelets, her eyes warmed a little, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Li Qiao put away the safety lock, looked at Zong Yue's imaginative face, and asked in a natural tone: "When are you and my eldest brother going to have a baby?"
The smile on the corner of Zong Yue's mouth froze for a moment, and he lowered his head and tucked the broken hair behind his ears, "This...let's go with fate."
In fact, she and Li Jun never discussed the topic of children, and he would consciously take measures every time, as if it was tacit understanding, and no one broke this balance.
Li Qiao caught the faint melancholy in Zong Yue's eyebrows and pulled her lips, "If you are wronged, you can say it."
With the character of big brother, being with him is bound to be hard work.
If a man can't empathize, how can he be expected to know the hot and cold in a relationship?
At this time, before Zong Yue could deny it, Li Qiao's phone rang.
She took it out and took a look, then answered with a smile, "Are you done?"
"Well, you're not home?" Shang Yu's deep voice came from the receiver.
Li Qiao glanced at Zong Yue, "At Jingwan Villa, come to my sister-in-law's house to get something."
The man pursed his lips, closed the document in his hand, and said in a deep voice, "Wait for me."
"You don't need to come here, I'll..."
"obedient."
Shang Yu's tone of refusal made Li Qiao feel a little unusual, she didn't refuse any more, just said "I'll wait for you" and then cut off the phone.
But Zong Yue looked at her enviously, deeply moved, "If he is as caring as Uncle Shaoyan, our children can be soy sauce."
See you at 0:00.
