Chapter 344: Protecting the Family
After lunch, several people moved from the dining table to the sofa, and as soon as they sat down, Chu Qiyue stood up and said, "Grandpa, I'll go sort out the key points of Professor Xu's lecture in the morning, and let the second brother and future sister-in-law have a good chat with you!" ”
Chu Tianqi and Xue Ziqing glanced at each other, neither of them knew how to start the topic, after all, they were not Chu Xuanyue's opponents when they talked to Old Man Chu, and if they were not careful, they would be speechless by Old Man Chu, and the atmosphere was embarrassed for a while.
Chu Qiyue didn't care whether Chu Tianqi was embarrassed or not, she turned around and went upstairs, leaving the two of them looking at each other, and even thinking about the topic was very difficult.
Old Man Chu looked calm, leisurely sipping tea, and seemed to be in a good mood. He glanced at Chu Tianqi and saw that his eyes were all dark green, and there were red bloodshots in his eyes that had not yet dissipated, and he couldn't hide his tiredness when he cheered up.
"Tianqi, is the company quite busy these days?"
Old Man Chu asked casually, and Chu Tianqi didn't dare to answer casually. He sat up straight and said with a serious face, "It's okay these days, I accumulated a lot of documents some time ago, and now I've almost processed them." ”
"Well, isn't it early to get back in the morning?"
"Well," Chu Tianqi was a little confused, "We came back together in the morning, and the flight wasn't very early, so it's okay." ”
Old Man Chu put down the teacup, looked at him and said, "If you are tired, go up and rest and rest, after today, you won't have a chance to sleep lazy." ”
Chu Tianqi reacted suddenly, he yawned, and his voice was full of fatigue, "Then I'll go up and rest first." ”
He turned his head to Xue Ziqing and said, "If you are not sleepy, talk to grandpa." ”
Xue Ziqing's eyes were full of pleading, but he had to say, "I'm not sleepy, you go and rest." ”
"Yes, good." Chu Tianqi carried Old Man Chu behind his back and resolutely pushed Xue Ziqing's hand down that was holding him, and went up to the second floor without looking back.
There were only two people left in the living room of Nuoda, Old Man Chu and Xue Ziqing, and Old Man Chu put on a kind face and said, "Miss Xue, do you mind going to the garden with me, an old man?" ”
Xue Ziqing could see that Old Man Chu had something to say to her, so he took the others away. She hurriedly smiled and said, "Grandpa Chu, of course I won't mind!" ”
There are different flowers in different temperatures throughout the year, it is late autumn, the garden is full of large chrysanthemums, slender and curly petals bloom brilliant and dazzling, the unique fragrance of chrysanthemums fills the garden, and the rich fragrance of roses is two completely different feelings.
Xue Ziqing walked behind Old Man Chu, Old Man Chu didn't speak, and she naturally didn't speak.
The two tacitly admired the flowers, and walked along the trail for a long time before Old Man Chu stopped.
Xue Ziqing suddenly had a feeling that the condemned prisoner was obeying the execution, her whole heart rose to her throat, and she concentrated on listening to what Old Man Chu said.
Old Man Chu looked at her and laughed as if she was at home, "I just want to talk to you, you don't have to be nervous." ”
"Hehe, do I look nervous?" Xue Ziqing's hands rubbed her face, the touch of her palms was slightly hot, and she knew that she must be blushing now.
Old Man Chu deliberately put on a smiling face, not wanting to put too much pressure on Xue Ziqing. He smiled and said, "I'm glad you can come back with Tianqi, to be honest." After so many years of anticipation, he finally came down to find someone who knows the cold and the hot, which is his blessing. However, I think as a parent, what I want most is for my children to be safe, free from illness and disaster, I think you can understand this, right? ”
Xue Ziqing could probably guess what Old Man Chu was trying to say, the smile on her face became more and more reluctant, and her voice added a little bitterness, "Grandpa Chu, I know what you mean." I'd love to find someone with a clean net worth, let alone you. But I really like Tianqi, I can do anything for him, I have left the Xue family for him, can you see my sincerity at this point? ”
Old Man Chu didn't smile either, he looked into Xue Ziqing's eyes, and asked word by word, "Are you for the Xue family that Tianqi left, or for yourself?" ”
Xue Ziqing's body shook violently, and his pupils shrank uncontrollably. Not wanting Old Man Chu to explore too many emotions from her eyes, she turned her gaze to the side and said slowly, "Grandpa Chu, I really can't hide anything from you." ”
Old Man Chu's eyes were a little wise and clear, and he didn't mean to ask questions in his words, but softened his tone and said, "I don't have to pursue the previous things, I said, I'm very happy that you can follow Tianqi back to Nancheng." I probably know a little bit about young people's love, and some like it, it's like a flash in the pan, it's just a dream. But many people can't see it, they don't want to see through Huang Liangmeng, and they always have to find a reason for themselves, and when they see it through, he is not the only one who is hurt, and the situation of losing both is not good..."
"Grandpa Chu," Xue Ziqing interrupted Old Man Chu's words, "I didn't like Tianqi out of a momentary interest, I know that Tianqi is starting to like me too." I'm confident that we can go on! You probably don't know, Tianqi and I have actually met for a long time, it's just that I've been unrequited, and he didn't know who I was before the two of us had a deal. I've been able to go so far with him, and I'm very satisfied. I don't want to add any chips or confidence to myself, I just hope you can believe in me and believe in my determination to give everything for Tianqi. ”
Old Man Chu was silent for a while, and then asked again, "Really?" Before the Moon Girl was injured, I might have been able to trust your determination, but now, can I still trust you? ”
Xue Ziqing's heart was already half cold, and it was futile to explain what had happened, it was better not to say anything, time would always give her justice.
"Grandpa Chu, I'm sorry for what happened last time, and I don't have anything to explain. If I say, that's not what I intended, would you believe it? ”
"I believe that was not your intention, otherwise we would not be able to stand here and speak, let alone agree that Yun Feng would make concessions and bring you back."
Old Man Chu has already reached a conclusion in his heart, "I told you this today, I didn't mean to pursue it with you, I just wanted you to know that Tianqi is a very important person in my Chu family, I don't want his pillow person to be two hearts with him, and I don't want someone to make any moths behind his back, what I want is his peace." I can make sure that he is not harmed in any way, not even anyone, without trying to hurt him. I said, do you understand? ”
