Chapter 22: First Betrothal
Suddenly, the neckline tightened, and Concubine Qiao's collar was once again held in Zhou Linyao's hand.
"I'm not going anywhere!" she grabbed Zhou Linyao's hand and tried to break it open, "You let go of me first!"
"Concubine Qiao, are you born with a trouble-making physique? first burned the pot, and now you burn the electrical box, can't you stop for a while?"
Feeling the terrifying low pressure from Zhou Linyao, she also began to recall.
Unexpectedly, in less than half a day, she did so many things.
When I think about it, I feel terrible.
But she didn't want to, she was doing it very seriously...... And then seriously do it wrong......
"I promise, there won't be any more tonight!" Concubine Qiao raised her fingers and solemnly assured Zhou Linyao.
She herself is also very weak now, and the original plan was to come over to leave a good impression on the Zhou family, so that if something happens in the future, she can retreat more, but she doesn't want to, after she comes, she will dig a pit and bury herself.
Zhou Linyao snorted coldly, what she said was completely untrustworthy.
He let go of her and strode back to the villa.
Concubine Qiao didn't dare to lag behind, so she hurried to follow.
Back at the villa, Li Xuewen asked how the situation was.
Concubine Qiao walked beside Zhou Linyao and kept giving him a look, but the man ignored it completely, spoke bluntly, and told Concubine Qiao's glorious deeds.
Li Xuewen was stunned after hearing this, and immediately showed a big smile, and her good-looking eyes bent into crescents.
Concubine Qiao couldn't figure it out, what's wrong? Is it so funny?
Looking at Zhou Hongrui again, there was no sign of anger, and the slightly raised corners of his mouth were the best proof.
"Little concubine, you won't be lonely in this family in the future!" Li Xuewen took Concubine Qiao's hand, turned her head and looked at Zhou Hongrui again, "Old Zhou, are you right?"
In Concubine Qiao's frightened eyes, Zhou Hongrui nodded.
Apparently, instead of being angry with her for her behavior tonight, the two approved of her.
What about the standard of the perfect daughter-in-law that I said before? What about the strict requirements that I said well?
Concubine Qiao still couldn't believe it.
Although the power went out at home, the gas did not go out.
Li Xuewen asked the maid to light candles at home, and changed the original Chinese food to Western food.
Four people gathered around the square table to enjoy a candlelit dinner, warm and romantic.
Although she usually behaves rudely, at the critical moment, Concubine Qiao has not forgotten the table manners that should be paid attention to.
Holding a knife and fork, Sven looks like a lady when she gets up.
Zhou Hongrui cut the steak in front of Li Xuewen very naturally, and then handed it to her later.
Li Xuewen tugged Zhou Linyao's sleeve on the table, suggesting that he was a gentleman and cut steaks for girls.
Zhou Linyao has never been so considerate and meticulous in treating girls, and he couldn't stand the coercion of Li Xuewen and Zhou Hongrui's double eyes, and turned to Concubine Qiao in front of him: "Do you need me to help you cut it?"
"No, thank you!" Concubine Qiao refused without thinking about it.
Just kidding, can you still eat the steak cut by Zhou Linyao!
She didn't believe that Zhou Linyao would be so kind at all, and would rather cut it herself little by little.
Seeing that she refused, Zhou Linyao didn't insist anymore, she was originally coerced by Li Xuewen, so she turned her head directly, and sent it into her mouth after cutting it.
Li Xuewen saw this scene and hated that iron could not become steel, if it weren't for Concubine Qiao's still existence, she would have gone up and beaten this kid twice now.
Zhou Linyao's indifferent actions made Zhou Hongrui think of what Lao Qiao said on the phone that he wanted to set a wedding date for these two children, and he suddenly felt that this matter would be too early?
Judging by their appearance, I'm afraid it will take a while to get together.
Looking at Zhou Linyao, Zhou Hongrui threw this thorny problem to him to solve.
"Lin Yao, Qiao Lao called before, and I want you to get married to the concubine as soon as possible!
Zhou Hongrui's words made the rest of the people present stop the movement of the knife and fork in their hands, raise their heads, and look at Zhou Linyao.
"I don't want to get married yet, too-"
After Zhou Linyao glanced at Concubine Qiao, her thin lips opened lightly, and every time he said a word, her heart was cold
Not married?
How do you explain what happened to your grandfather when you didn't get married?
They have already told a lie to round things back from before, and now they have no way back!
Concubine Qiao was in a hurry, jumped up and covered Zhou Linyao's mouth, turned her head, and took over the words that Zhou Linyao had been interrupted by her: "Marriage is too fast for us, after all, I am still young, and I can't rush to get married, so it's better to get engaged first......?"
Betrothal?
Zhou Hongrui and Li Xuewen looked at each other, feeling that Concubine Qiao was right, and thought about whether to follow the process to get engaged first.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one noticed them, Concubine Qiao fell into Zhou Linyao's ear and threatened: "Don't forget that you are my person now, and you have to listen to me in everything!"
Zhou Linyao pinched her wrist hard, and it hurt so much that she had to let go, "Why?"
The flickering candle flame was reflected in the man's eyes, exuding a warm orange color, adding a bit of warmth to his cold and solemn appearance, and Concubine Qiao was fascinated for a while, and her brain had stopped turning.
Seeing the sluggish appearance of the little woman in front of him, he stretched out his finger and gently rubbed her red lips, "Give me a reason to agree." ”
