Super Sweet Engagement: Darling, it's not over yet

"It's nothing, it's cold outside, let's go inside quickly." The housekeeper nodded and changed the subject directly.

Qu Ningning stood motionless at the fuel tank at the door, and happened to watch Liu Ma timidly walk out wearing a thick cloak.

"Ma'am is back?" Seeing Qu Ningning, she immediately smiled and kept rubbing her hands together.

Qu Ningning subconsciously looked at the keys in her hand, and asked slowly, "Is there any mail?"

"um, yes."

Qu Ningning stretched out her hand with the palm facing up, Mama Liu immediately understood her intention and handed the key to her.

When the cold key fell into his hand, Qu Ningning couldn't help shivering, and carefully opened the small lock on the fuel tank.

"Ma'am, let me do it." The housekeeper felt that something was wrong, so he stood up and said.

Qu Ningning shook his head, and opened the small door on his own, and there were several cards lying inside.

"It seems that this person is quite persistent. Where did he go this time?"

This is a postcard from a small town in Florence, Qu Ningning held it tightly in his hand, and walked back to the villa step by step.

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, she carefully looked at the beautiful handwriting on it, as well as the still touching words of love.

"Housekeeper, aren't you going to tell me her name?" Qu Ningning looked up with anticipation and sadness in his eyes.

After hesitating for a moment, the butler still pretended to be stupid and said, "I really don't understand what madam means."

"Forget it, I'll ask him myself."

Qu Ningning put the cards on the table again, turned around and walked towards the stairs alone, just stepped up a step, and said without looking back: "By the way, put all these cards away, and collect them together when the young master comes back." give him."

The housekeeper didn't respond this time, but had a sad face.

Qu Ningning took a hot bath and lay down under the warm blanket. At night, when Liu Ma came to ask me to go down for dinner, she just found an excuse to refuse.

"However, pregnant women need to eat three meals a day, how can they say that they don't want to eat?" Liu Ma shouted worriedly standing outside the door.

Qu Ningning was really impatient to hear this urging voice, so she raised her voice and said in displeasure, "I'll eat when I'm hungry, don't bother me anymore."

She fell into an inexplicable dilemma all day long. From Qin Fen's mouth about the girl from five years ago and the postcards she kept receiving, she became more and more curious about what Rong Lixing was hiding from her?
In the evening, all the servants returned to their rooms, and the whole villa was as quiet as if no one lived there.

"Mother Liu." Qu Ningning gently knocked on the door of her room, her voice was very low, as if she was afraid of waking up the housekeeper in the other room.

Liu Ma was yawning while turning on the hot food. Seeing the lady standing at the door, she immediately asked, "Are you hungry? I'll go and heat you up right now."

Qu Ningning quickly reached out to stop her, and said with a smile, "No, I just wanted to ask where you put the postcards you received these two days?"

Liu Ma's eyes were sleepy, she didn't think about this question carefully at all, she casually pointed to the right: "In the study."

"Okay, go to sleep." Qu Ningning's voice was very gentle, with a reassuring magic power, and sure enough, the hooligan nodded and lay back in a daze.

Qu Ningning stood in the study and paced back and forth several times, but couldn't find those postcards.

She simply opened a drawer casually, and there was a notebook lying in the drawer.

"What is this?" Qu Ningning picked it up and asked to herself, she is not a person who often comes to the study room, and she doesn't even look at things that are written in a serious manner.

She remembered that Rong Lixing didn't seem to be in the habit of taking notes, and casually flipped through a sheet, only to see several repeated words scrawled on the entire sheet with a black carbon pen.

Yirou.

This year's winter was colder than before, when Rong Lixing came back wearing a fur coat, his fingers were stiff from the cold.

"Master, you are back." The butler took the box in his hand at the door, turned around and told Mama Liu, "Tell the kitchen to cook a few more dishes tonight."

"Got it."

Rong Lixing hung his coat and towel at the door, and asked blankly, "Where's Ningning?"

"Madam has been resting in her room for the past few days, and rarely even comes down to eat."

Rong Lixing frowned, wondering what happened to Qu Ningning recently?
When she opened the door, she still leaned against the familiar bay window and turned her head to the world outside the window.

"I haven't been with you well for the past few days, why are you not even eating on time?" When his voice came over, Qu Ningning was caught in a kind of thought.

She withdrew her thoughts suddenly, and saw Li Xing, who was wearing a black sweater, slowly walking towards her face.

She opened her arms, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth: "Welcome home."

Rong Li walked over and hugged her, this familiar smell made his heart feel peaceful again.

"Are you okay?" He gently stroked the slightly raised belly with his hands, as if he could feel the existence of a life inside.

Qu Ningning replied softly: "He is very good, I think he is probably a girl."

"Boys and girls are our treasures." He even lowered his head and kissed her belly lightly, and then continued softly, "But you haven't called me a single call since I left .”

There was a trace of grievance in his tone, like a three-year-old child who couldn't get the care of his mother.

Qu Ningning laughed out loud, narrowed his eyes, and said reproachfully, "I know you have important things to do when you go abroad this time, so I didn't intend to disturb you at all."

"But I still hope that you can disturb me more often." Rong Lixing's words were full of sincerity, and the rest of his eyes were full of tenderness.

Qu Ningning stared at him deeply, and after a short while finally smiled, and continued: "By the way, there are some things I want to show you."

When Rong Lixing heard her words, he suddenly asked curiously: "What kind of surprise?"

"That's right." Qu Ningning didn't look at him, but walked out of the room alone.

Rong Lixing silently followed behind her, looking at her body that didn't look fat even after being pregnant for several months, he suddenly felt a little sad.

For some reason, he looked at her back and felt that Qu Ningning seemed a little unhappy at this moment.

The butler watched the two of them walk into the study from downstairs, his face slowly became solemn, he hesitated for a while with his head down, and then walked up together.

"These are the postcards received at home these days, all of which are addressed to you." Qu Ningning wrote a thick stack of postcards from the table, and handed them directly to Rong Lixing behind him.

Rong Lixing froze for a moment, just looked down at the pieces of paper in her hand, and the smile on his lips just now froze.

"Why don't you take it?" She looked at him with a raised eyebrow and a smile.

Rong Lixing's eyes seemed to be a little evasive, and he didn't look directly at Qu Ningning. After hesitating for a moment, he finally reached out and took it. He just glanced at the words on it and put it directly on the table.

"Why don't you take a good look at who sent it?"

"Probably some friends who loved traveling before, it's not important." His voice became low, and when he looked into her eyes, there was firmness in his eyes.

Seeing his strange movements, Qu Ningning felt even more uncomfortable. Just as he was about to continue asking, he heard the housekeeper knock on the door: "Master, the food is ready."

Rong Lixing nodded and took her hand directly, and said softly: "Let's go eat first."

Qu Ningning had just asked again, but finally took it back. When she walked to the door, she looked at the butler who had no expression on his face. He just buried his head lower.

During this meal, both of them ate in unusual silence.Because Rong Lixing came back from a business trip, he didn't feel any warm place.

Just casually ate a few mouthfuls, Qu Ningning lost her appetite again, put down her chopsticks and raised her eyes and said, "I went to my father-in-law's place a few days ago."

"Well, is he okay?" Rong Lixing replied somewhat absent-mindedly, as if his thoughts had wandered somewhere.

Qu Ningning just glanced at him silently, and continued: "He seems to be coughing all the time, and he has this symptom after returning from abroad. I'm a daughter-in-law, it's hard to say, next time you have time, take him with you." Go to the hospital and have a look."

"Okay." Hearing what she said, Rong Lixing couldn't help becoming worried.

Father's body has been strong all year round. Even if he has been aging in recent years, there is no such serious time at all.
Qu Ningning stood up, poured a glass of juice for him, and pretended to casually mention what happened at Rong's father's house that day.

"By the way, I also saw Uncle Qin."

"Qin Fen?" Rong Lixing raised his head and asked suspiciously.

Qu Ningning took a sip of the breath-stopping juice by herself, pursed her lips and continued to smile slightly, "That's right, he still mistook me for a girl."

The movements in Rong Lixing's hands finally stopped, the chopsticks were held up in the air, and he didn't know how to put them down.

Rong Lixing blinked his eyes, and a meaningful light flashed in his deep eyes, but he soon regained his composure, just like chatting normally: "Oh, he is probably confused when he is old."

"Really? Maybe."

Since he still didn't want to tell him, Qu Ningning didn't have any intention of forcing it, but there was still a part of his heart that seemed to be always separated.

When Qu Ningning came out of the shower at night, he saw Rong Lixing sitting on the bed with his mobile phone, not knowing what he was doing, but with a serious look on his face.

"Why haven't you slept yet?" She asked suddenly, but Rong Lixing jumped in fright. He hastily turned off the phone and put it on the bedside table casually.
