Chapter 170: Be My Girlfriend
Yes, she's not his opponent no. She was no match for him at any time.
Zhou He took a deep breath, his hand carrying the luggage tightened, he didn't look at Cheng Wei, and said word by word: "Please go out!"
There was a suffocating depression in the room, Cheng Wei handed the cigarette to his lips and took a puff, said a little sleep, and then opened the door and went out.
He had the faint appearance of a non-caring person. Zhou He's luggage fell to the ground after the door closed, and he closed his eyes and leaned on the bed.
The driver knew that he was in trouble, and stood outside anxiously for a long time, and when he saw Cheng Wei coming out, he immediately greeted him.
Cheng Wei was not as casual as he was in front of Zhou He, and his handsome face was tired. He knew what the driver was going to say, and without waiting for him to speak, he said, "Go and get the car." ”
The driver was stunned for a moment, and when he looked up at him again, his face had returned to his usual indifference.
He knew that Cheng Wei asked him to drive to expose the matter, so he quickly answered yes and trotted all the way to drive.
By the time he drove the car out, Cheng Wei was already waiting at the gate of the villa. It was still early, and there was so much peace in the villa that even the staff at the lodge couldn't see it.
Cheng Wei came from N City next door last night, and he should be going back there at this time. It was so far from the airport here, and the driver got out of the car and pulled the door for him and asked tentatively: "Mr. Cheng, do you want to pack a breakfast on the way......?"
Cheng Wei didn't have any expression on his face, and before he finished speaking, he said lightly: "Drive." ”
The driver didn't dare to speak anymore, so he quickly got in the car and started the car.
Cheng Wei didn't speak all the way, and kept closing his eyes. He didn't dare to make any noise like this, so he focused on the car and drove diligently.
Zhou Ji didn't leave the room again, just stayed in the room. It wasn't until footsteps sounded in the corridor outside that she estimated that Xu Mingze was coming, so she packed up her emotions and put away the luggage scattered all over the place.
probably wanted Zhou He to sleep more, Xu Mingze came over at nine o'clock. He had already gotten up, holding the spray he bought from the pharmacy in the scenic spot to relieve pain and swelling, and when he saw Zhou He, he said: "I asked the staff here this morning to know that there is a pharmacy outside the scenic spot, and the effect of this spray is very good, remember to spray it on time for a few days." ”
As he spoke, he squatted down and checked Zhou He's ankle.
Zhou He said it was okay now.
Xu Mingze checked it and said, "It's still a little swollen, but it's much better than expected." Looks like it should recover soon. ”
As he spoke, he opened the spray he brought, sprayed it on Zhou He's ankle, and said, "Remember to spray it on time every day when you go back, and it shouldn't hurt in two days." But you still have to take care of it and raise it for a while. ”
The cold feeling of spraying on the ankle is somewhat familiar, and Zhou He was in a trance, came back to his senses, and said a good word. And he said, "I'll just spray it myself." ”
Xu Mingze said that it was okay, sprayed a few more times, and then stood up.
After this morning's events, Zhou He didn't want to stay longer for a second. But even if you want to go back, you have to have breakfast. Xu Mingze put away the spray and said, "Let's go, go have breakfast." ”
Zhou He nodded and said yes.
Zhou He's feet limped slowly, and he was also very patient, waiting for him to take his steps slowly. Somewhat because of his profession, he is considerate and careful. Since Zhou He came back yesterday, he hasn't gone out again. I'm afraid she's bored, so I've been staying in the room with her. At night, knowing that her legs were inconvenient, she even called dinner to the room, and specially asked the staff of the villa to set up a small table here.
On the way to the restaurant, neither of them spoke, and Zhou He was no longer as able to eat as he was yesterday. I didn't have much appetite today, so I only ate a small amount of food and put down my chopsticks.
The two of them went back and didn't take the car arranged by Cheng Wei again, Xu Mingze asked the hotel manager to help arrange the car early. When Cheng Wei's people found out, the luggage had been put in the car, and Zhou He also sat in the car. He had to watch the car drive away.
Yesterday was still fine, but I don't know how it changed today. The man failed to complete the assigned task, and immediately called Cheng Wei, wanting to ask if he was following. But Cheng Wei's mobile phone is turned off.
He couldn't help but secretly complain at this time, and after thinking about it for a while, he called Li Jing.
Li was not surprised to know that Zhou He and Xu Mingze did not take his car, but just lightly ordered him to follow. See if there's anything you can help with.
The man breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly started the car and followed.
It's far from Kyoto, and it took more than four hours to get there. Xu Mingze, who saw Zhou Hetian halfway, proposed to stop and rest to breathe, but Zhou He refused, saying that he was fine.
When she limped out of the car and entered the yard, the aunt was immediately startled and asked, "What's the matter?"
Zhou He smiled helplessly and said, "It's okay, it's sprained." ”
"It's fine when you leave, why did you sprain it?" chattered the aunt as she called the doctor.
Zhou He hurriedly interrupted her and said, "Auntie is really fine, just a little injury, I have already seen a doctor, and I have also sprayed medicine." ”
The aunt was distressed, and said, "Why don't you know how to be careful? It's so big, why can't you walk well." ”
She didn't know when she would have to nag like this, and Zhou He hurriedly said that she was a little thirsty.
The aunt helped her sit down on the sofa, and while saying that she had mung bean soup, she went into the kitchen to give it to Zhou Hesheng.
Zhou He quietly breathed a sigh of relief. I thought in my heart, fortunately, Xu Mingze didn't follow.
When he got out of the car just now, he was going to take her in. Zhou Ji didn't want to trouble him, and he was afraid of running into Li Ying, so he refused.
It didn't take long for the aunt to bring the mung bean soup, put the delicate small bowl in front of Zhou He, and said, "Chilled, just go to the fire." It's too hot and I don't know when it's going to rain. ”
Auntie is a little fat, although there is air conditioning in the house. But I still sweat at every turn.
Zhou He said that the last few days have been sunny and the temperature is high. She hadn't seen Li Ying after coming in for a while, so she looked upstairs and asked, "Uncle Xiao, have they all gone out?"
Li Peiyuan was at work at this time, and what she asked was actually Li Ying.
The aunt then said: "Mr. Xiao Li went to work, the eldest lady seems to have called her in the morning, and she went out after breakfast, and she should not come back until the afternoon." ”
Zhou He nodded and stopped talking. After drinking mung bean soup later, she went upstairs under the pretext that she was a little tired.
When she returned to her room, she did not sleep, lying on the bed and looking at the ceiling.
When she came back, she didn't plan to stay long. came from Yucheng, and just wanted to come over to see Li Peiyuan and went back. I didn't expect to stay that long.
She suddenly remembered Cheng Weilai at this moment, and she became anxious inexplicably. A sense of urgency to escape that had never been felt before rose.
She closed her eyes and suppressed the urgency. I didn't want to stay any longer, and I started to think about what kind of reason I should find to go back to school first.
If Li Ying didn't come back and didn't get sick, she would be very good to speak. But this is hard to say.
She restrained the anxiety rising in her heart, and her fingers clenched tightly unconsciously.
When Li Ying came back, it was already evening, and Zhou He hadn't gone downstairs yet. She probably heard about Zhou He's sprained foot from her aunt, went upstairs, and knocked on Zhou He's door.
Zhou Ji was not used to her care, and she didn't let her look at her feet when she wanted to, she just said that it was okay, and it wouldn't be long before she got better.
Li Ying was more or less embarrassed, asked her what she wanted to eat, and said that tomorrow she would let her aunt go to the vegetable market to buy some big bones and come back to make soup for her.
Zhou He didn't say anything at this time, just nodded.
Li Peiyuan had a social party and did not come back for dinner. Zhou He couldn't sleep, so he went downstairs after Li Ying fell asleep and sat alone in the courtyard outside.
When Li Peiyuan came back, it was already past eleven o'clock, he stopped the car, saw Zhou He in the yard, walked over, sat down on the bench next to her, and asked, "Why haven't you slept yet?"
Zhou He was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't hear the sound of the car's engine. Suddenly, I was startled when I heard him talking next to him, came back to my senses, and said that I was back, little uncle, and smiled again, and said, "I slept too much during the day, and I still can't sleep." ”
Li Peiyuan nodded, looked down at her injured foot with slippers, frowned slightly, and said, "Auntie said that your foot was sprained, are you okay?"
Zhou He didn't expect his aunt to call him for this little thing, and hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's just a little injury, and it will be fine in two days." ”
Li Peiyuan snorted and said, "If you feel unwell, call the doctor over, don't hold on." ”
Zhou Ji didn't want to continue on this topic, so he quickly nodded and said yes.
She looked preoccupied, and she didn't speak again after saying that. Li Peiyuan naturally saw it, raised his wrist to look at the time, and asked gently, "What, is there something wrong?"
If it was okay, she wouldn't have been sitting outside in the middle of the night. She's here, waiting for him to come back.
Zhou He didn't say anything, and after a minute or two, he said, "Uncle, I'm going to go back to school." ”
Li Peiyuan was stunned at this time, and said, "Isn't there still a period of time before school starts?"
Zhou He smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay for me to stay here, I can do something more or less when I go back." ”
There wasn't much to do in school, but now it's a busy time for farming, and she can go back and help those kids do something. Especially in Xiao Bao's family, the grandparents are old, and it is not convenient to do many things.
She's more comfortable staying there than staying here.
Li Peiyuan was silent for a while, and after a while, he asked, "Did you tell your mother?"
Zhou He didn't speak, paused, and then said, "Not yet." She looked at the shadow shrunk into a ball on the ground, and said, "Didn't she come back to settle down this time, and she will see her when she comes back in the future." ”
It's just that I don't know when I'll be back next time.
Li Peiyuan didn't speak, looked down at her injured foot, and said, "Go back when the injury on your foot is healed, she won't worry about going back like this." ”
She wasn't sure if Zhou He's sudden statement that he wanted to go back had something to do with Li Ying.
Zhou He wanted to leave immediately, but he was not in a hurry for the next few days. In the end, he nodded and said hello.
She didn't know how to tell Li Ying that she was going back, so she hesitated slightly, looked at Li Peiyuan, and said, "Little uncle, can you tell her for me?"
Li Peiyuan nodded and simply responded yes.
He looked at the time again, and saw that it was almost twelve o'clock, so he stood up and said, "If there is anything in the future, if I don't come back, call me, don't wait so late." Go to sleep. ”
He didn't believe Zhou He's words that he couldn't sleep during the day.
Zhou Heran nodded, and said, "Then little uncle, you should go to bed early." ”
She stood up and limped inside.
Li Peiyuan watched her go back to her room, and then went back to her room to wash.
The matter of going back has been decided, and Zhou He is relieved. Even with the whole person, it was a lot easier.
Although she slept late, she woke up the next day looking good. Before they could get up, the aunt went to the market and bought back a box of early-ripening grapes, which she planned to make herself.
She was busy doing it alone, and Zhou He went to the kitchen after breakfast to help her cut the grapes and wash them.
She originally thought that these few days would pass like that. But after finishing the last procedure of making fruit wine at noon, she was sweating, and as soon as she went upstairs to change her clothes, she heard the doorbell ring outside.
Downstairs, Li Ying and Auntie were there, she didn't care about it, but as soon as she changed her clothes, Auntie knocked on the door and said with a smile: "Go downstairs, Dr. Xu is here, bring some supplements to see you, your mother is greeting him, go down and have a look." ”
Zhou He didn't expect Xu Mingze to come over at all, so he couldn't help but be stunned, and soon went downstairs.
At this time, Li Ying had already served Xu Mingze tea and was talking to him with a smile on her face. When he heard the footsteps, he looked up and saw that Zhou He had come down, so he beckoned and said, "Come down, Doctor Xu has come to see you." ”
Zhou He went downstairs hard, sat down on the sofa, and said, "Why are you here? ”
Xu Mingze smiled slightly, and was about to speak, Li Ying said angrily: "How do you talk this kid, Dr. Xu is rare to come over once, and he has already asked you to call Dr. Xu to come over for dinner." I came just in time today, so I'll go back after dinner tonight. I'll call later and ask your uncle to come back sooner. ”
Probably because she was afraid that Zhou He would return to dismantle her platform, she didn't wait for her to speak after she finished speaking, so she beckoned Xu Mingze to drink tea.
Inviting Xu Mingze over for dinner was already scheduled by Li Ying, and now that Xu Mingze is here, she naturally won't let him go, and she arranged for a driver to go grocery shopping later. Let Xu Mingze be sure to stay and eat.
She knew very well how to create time for the two of them, so she went into the kitchen later to prepare, and asked Zhou He to take Xu Mingze outside for a walk.
There is a pavilion in the courtyard, and it is very comfortable to sit in it and eat fruit in the wind.
She has already said that Zhou He naturally can't help but go, and took Xu Mingze outside. The aunt quickly cut a plate of fruit and brought out a plate of snacks.
No one can see that Li Ying specially matched, and Zhou He was more or less embarrassed, and he couldn't find anything to say for a while. After a while, seeing that Xu Mingze didn't move the fruit, he said dryly: "The watermelon is very sweet, Doctor Xu can taste it." ”
Xu Mingze smiled and agreed, and first forked a piece with a fork and handed it to her.
Zhou He said thank you and took it and bit it slowly.
Xu Mingze also ate a piece of watermelon, and then looked at the flowers and plants planted in the yard.
He is quite knowledgeable about flowers and plants, and from time to time he asks Zhou He questions about the types of flowers and cultivation. Zhou He only knew that it was some fur, and finally he had to call the gardener who served the flowers and plants at home. Xu Mingze stopped her, saying that he was just curious and asked casually, not to plant flowers and plants.
He is usually busy with work, sometimes he goes home in the middle of the night, and almost always falls asleep after washing, where does he have time to serve flowers and plants.
He bought some meat when he first bought a house, and then he died because he didn't take care of it.
Speaking of this, the topic opened up a bit, and Zhou He was finally not so cramped.
Although he called Li Peiyuan in advance, he had something to do temporarily, and the last dinner was eaten by Zhou He, Li Ying, and Xu Mingze.
Li Ying cooked it herself, and several dishes were said to have been made by her. She was very enthusiastic, served Xu Mingze with vegetables, and said that it was better to eat something in this season.
Xu Mingze is used to dealing with the queen mother at home, he can say a few words about anything Li Ying, and he is happy at the dinner table.
Xu Mingze didn't stay long, and got up to say goodbye after dinner. Li Ying didn't keep him, knowing that he would leave the day after tomorrow, and told him to come to the house on a business trip in the future.
Xu Mingze agreed, and after saying goodbye politely, Li Ying asked Zhou He to send him out.
Xu Mingze did not refuse, and when the two of them arrived outside, he looked at Zhou He, and suddenly said: "Tomorrow is the last day, I still plan to buy some special products to take back, can you please help me to take a look tomorrow?" ”
It's just to buy a specialty, Zhou He naturally won't agree, and nodded his head.
Xu Mingze smiled and said that he would drive over to pick her up tomorrow.
Zhou He said that he could go over by himself, just meet at the place where he was going. Xu Mingze said that her feet were not yet well, and it was enough to trouble her to let her accompany him to buy gifts, of course she couldn't let her go by car.
Zhou He couldn't resist him, so he had to let him go. Agreed on a time for Ming'er.
After saying this, Xu Mingze let her go in first, Zhou He didn't go in, watched him stop the taxi and leave, and then returned to the house.
Li Ying happened to be talking to her aunt, Xu Mingze came to the door with a gift, and people were going to leave the day after tomorrow, so naturally they couldn't give nothing, and they discussed what was more appropriate.
In just half a day, she has almost figured out what Xu Mingze's family is and what her parents like.
She was too enthusiastic, and Zhou He wanted to stop it, but she knew that she couldn't stop it, so she had to let the two discuss.
Ming'er had to go out with Xu Mingze in the morning, but she didn't tell Li Ying, she just went upstairs early.
Xu Mingze came over at nine o'clock the next day, and Zhou He quietly went out after his phone on the street. If Li Ying and Auntie knew, I don't know what they would come up with.
She originally thought that Xu Mingze was in a hurry to buy something. But no, he didn't seem to be busy at all, so he drove the car to the more famous snack street here, and took Zhou He to the snack street.
Zhou He's feet were limping and inconvenient, so he found a clean shop for her to sit on, and he himself went to buy the special snacks here.
Zhou He was a little surprised by his actions, and then thought that he would rarely come to this kind of place, so he didn't ask anything, and discussed with Xu Mingze when he bought snacks.
stayed in the snack street for a morning, and after the two went to buy special products in the afternoon, Xu Mingze took Zhou He to the mall again, saying that he forgot to choose a gift for his aunt, and asked Zhou He to help choose it.
Zhou He doesn't have much vision for picking gifts, so he said that his vision is not good.
Xu Mingze smiled and said that his vision was even worse, and asked her to help refer to it.
He first went to look at the bag, but when he didn't see a suitable one, he went to the jewelry section. Zhou He didn't know what to send, it didn't help much, it was recommended by the shopping guide, she was only responsible for using her aesthetics to give good looks or not.
Xu Mingze was very generous, and finally chose a bracelet with a lot of price.
Zhou He originally thought that he was going back to the hotel after choosing the gift, but he finally asked Zhou He if he had nothing to do in the afternoon and took her to afternoon tea.
The place to drink afternoon tea is a café next to the shopping mall, and there is no one at this time. The waiter took them both outside to a small garden full of flowers and plants. And recommended the signature dessert and coffee in the café to the two.
Xu Mingze asked for a cup of coffee by himself, and Zhou He's a cup of black tea.
The surrounding environment is good and refreshing. After talking about some other topics, Xu Mingze suddenly took out a delicate box, opened it in front of Zhou He, and said, "Ahe, although it's a bit presumptuous, can I ask you to be my girlfriend?"
The expression on his face was very serious, not like a joke at all.
What's in that box is another beautiful bracelet recommended by the shopping guide just now. She didn't even know when he went to buy it.
This is indeed abrupt, Zhou He didn't expect it at all. She was flustered, stammered with a dry smile, and said, "Doctor Xu, don't be joking." ”
