broken pregnant
Chapter 73
Zhou Luo went to the bedroom, Zhou Shiqin sat down on the sofa, feeling even more uncomfortable, thinking of Zhou Luo's trusting smile, he felt so dirty.
Zhou Shiqin really didn't understand why his mother and Aunt Chen had such a big feud, they had been arguing for more than 30 years, and they were still arguing.What is even more depressing is that the war between the two women involves the younger generation.
He also didn't understand why his father was so disgusted with his liking for men, and insisted on getting some paper documents, which made his mother and Aunt Chen start to do anything for the family property, disturbing him and making him feel safe.
Zhou Luo slept for a long time. When he woke up, it was already dark and Zhou Shiqin was not there. Zhou Luo washed up and started cooking dinner.
After he finished cooking, Zhou Shiqin didn't come home after waiting for a long time. Zhou Luo got up to find his mobile phone and put in the battery, but he couldn't turn it on.
Zhou Luo fiddled with it for a while, and then charged it again, but still couldn't turn it on. He sighed softly, went to the sofa, picked up the landline to call Zhou Shiqin, but there was no answer for the time being, so he had no choice but to hang up , sitting there quietly waiting, I don't know how much time has passed, Zhou Luo looked at the clock on the wall, it was already nine o'clock in the evening, and Zhou Shiqin hadn't come back yet.
Zhou Luo sat there in a daze for a while, looking at the cold food, heaved a long sigh, it was past ten o'clock in the evening, he was also tired from sitting, and was going to bed.
Just when he finished washing and went to the bedroom, Zhou Shiqin just opened the door and entered the house. He looked a bit unwell and walked a little crookedly.
Zhou Luo was taken aback, and quickly stepped forward to support him, the pungent smell of alcohol made him frown, Zhou Luo helped Zhou Shiqin take off his coat, and asked with concern: "Brother Zhou, are you alright?"
"It's okay." Zhou Shiqin smiled faintly, "You haven't slept yet?"
"No."
Zhou Shiqin stroked his hair with a smile: "No need to help, I can do it myself."
"I'll go get you a glass of water."
"Okay." Zhou Shiqin loosened his tie: "Thank you."
Zhou Luo handed the water to his hand, and thoughtfully added a little sugar in it to hangover.
Zhou Shiqin took a sip, sat there and took a deep breath. Although he drank some wine, it didn't make him feel much better. The stagnation in his chest still couldn't go away.He rubbed the space between his brows, and suddenly he missed that little bastard Su Jingyan. If he had been there, the haze in his heart might have been dispelled by his glib and pistachio appearance.
Zhou Shiqin glanced at Zhou Luo who was sitting there with a worried face looking at him. His heart trembled. Compared with Su Jingyan, Zhou Luo gave him the feeling of being quiet, very comfortable and quiet. If you don't take the initiative, he is Never come forward.This is exactly the opposite of Su Jingyan.
Zhou Shiqin couldn't help but raised his hand to stroke Zhou Luo's hair again, and said gently, "Just pretend I didn't say anything about going to Shanghai for the New Year. You can be wherever you want, and no one can force you. As long as you're happy. "
Zhou Luo paused, lowered his eyes: "Actually, I'm hesitant about going to Shanghai, but I'm afraid of celebrating the New Year alone, so..." He raised his eyes and looked at Zhou Shiqin: "I've made up my mind. , go to Shanghai with you."
These words surprised Zhou Shiqin: "Are you... going to Shanghai?"
"Well." Zhou Luo said with a slight smile: "I think, before I go back to school, I'll go to Shanghai to see, I haven't been there yet, and, I'll just blackmail you once and go home with you Eat and drink." After speaking, she blushed a little embarrassedly.
Zhou Shiqin was a little pleasantly surprised, and he smirked twice at Zhou Luo's sudden agreement: "Really?"
"Of course it's true." Zhou Luo scratched his hair and said, "Go and see your house, you have to eat and sleep."
Zhou Shiqin smiled and stretched out his arms to wrap around Zhou Luo's shoulders: "Don't worry, food, housing and play are all included, what do you want about our family?"
Zhou Luo felt a little embarrassed again, especially with Zhou Shiqin holding his shoulders like this, his body was a little stiff, so he straightened his back and tried to relax.
Zhou Shiqin said again: "Then when we go to Shanghai, the time is up to you."
Zhou Luo blinked: "Well, you should decide the time."
"Then why don't we leave tomorrow and go back early so we can have more fun." Zhou Shiqin said, "Is that okay?"
Zhou Luo looked at Zhou Shiqin's smiling eyebrows, and nodded with a hum.
Zhou Shiqin was very fast. When he woke up the next day, he told Zhou Luo that the plane ticket had already been booked, and it was after three o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhou Luo was startled: "So fast."
"It's not fast. I wanted to book this morning, but I feel a little rushed."
"Oh."
The breakfast was hot, the untouched food from last night. During the meal, Zhou Shiqin said, "Do you want to visit your mother's place before you leave?"
Zhou Luo's expression froze, then he shook his head: "No."
He was afraid that if he went, he would not want to leave.
Zhou Shiqin coughed lightly: "Okay, then we'll go directly to the airport."
"……it is good."
After the meal, the two sat together and had a conversation, and then simply packed their luggage. Zhou Shiqin had the habit of taking a nap, so he stretched out and asked Zhou Luo if he wanted to sleep for a while.
Zhou Luo thought for a while and decided to take a nap too, so the two went back to their respective bedrooms to sleep.
In fact, Zhou Luo couldn't sleep, he was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
He was thinking, what gifts to buy for Zhou Shiqin's family when he went to Zhou Shiqin's house?
Thinking of this, he sat up, took out his wallet, and counted the money in it. Including the money for distributing leaflets, he now has 2293 yuan. Zhou Luo took out 500 yuan from it and decided to use the money to buy gifts. I can't take it out, that's all I can do.
I also wondered, if I went to Zhou Shiqin's house for the first time, I would bother me there for many days, and I would spend the New Year at his house, so 500 yuan was not enough?
Zhou Luo looked down at the money in his hand, counted the money back and forth several times, and sighed, it would be great if he had more money, but no matter how little money he had, he had to bring a gift, not to mention that Brother Zhou returned it to himself. I bought a plane ticket, and the plane ticket alone cost a lot of money. The most important thing is Brother Zhou's family.Thinking this way, another 500 yuan was drawn.
Well, 1000 yuan to buy a gift.
Zhou Luo put away the rest of the money, and put the 1000 yuan he took out at hand, thinking about what to buy.
While he was thinking hard, Zhou Shiqin opened the door and walked in. It was too late for Zhou Luo to put away the money, he was a little embarrassed: "Brother Zhou, why did you wake up so soon?"
Zhou Shiqin came over and sat by the bed, and said with a smile, "I still want to ask you, why didn't you sleep? This is..." Glancing at the 1000 yuan, he asked doubtfully, "How much money?"
Zhou Luo laughed dryly: "That...um."
Zhou Shiqin smiled, and then picked up the money and put it in Zhou Luo's hands: "You, keep the money well, and you don't need to think about buying gifts."
Zhou Luo was surprised by this, and he said in a daze, "Brother Zhou, how do you...know that I want to..."
"Because I'm your big brother Zhou." Zhou Shiqin held Zhou Luo's hand as he spoke, "My house is just like yours, so do you still need to bring gifts when you go back to your own house?"
Zhou Luo remained silent, he looked at Zhou Shiqin gratefully, his heart trembled for a moment, his whole heart felt warm.
Zhou Shiqin's words made him relax. The two of them ate at the airport and boarded the plane after a while.Before boarding the plane, Zhou Luoxin said, goodbye Beijing, goodbye mother, and goodbye...
Because of leaving this time, he doesn't plan to come to Beijing again.
When we got off the plane, at around five o'clock, as soon as we got out of the airport, we saw two bodyguards bowed slightly to Zhou Shiqin, and called out in unison, Young Master, and then one bodyguard helped Zhou Luo carry the luggage, while the other opened the door. The door of a car.
Zhou Luo was obviously taken aback by this situation. He looked at Zhou Shiqin and asked him for help. Zhou Shiqin smiled at him, "Get in the car."
"Oh." Zhou Luo got into the car in a daze.
The car drove out of the airport slowly and got into the car. Zhou Shiqin smiled gently and patted Zhou Luo's hand: "Don't be so nervous, they were sent by my mother to pick us up."
Zhou Luo looked at him and nodded.
Zhou Shiqin gave him a comforting smile.
Zhou Luo breathed a sigh of relief, carefully looked inside the car, and then out the window: "Wow, Shanghai is so beautiful."
Zhou Shiqin took a look outside: "I haven't arrived at a more beautiful place yet, I'll take you to the Bund another day."
"Okay." Zhou Luo smiled expectantly.
As night fell, the night scene of Shanghai appeared, so beautiful that Zhou Luo couldn't move his eyes. He kept staring out of the car window along the way, with uncontrollable admiration and excitement in his brows and eyes.
Zhou Shiqin didn't say anything to him, but he decided in his heart that no matter whether he agreed to his own mother or not, there was one thing he had to do, and that was to make Zhou Luo happy every day in Shanghai. Happy.
Soon the car slowed down at a villa building, and as the car slowly drove into the yard of the villa, Zhou Luo's heart became tense.
He froze, and asked Zhou Shiqin cautiously: "Later, is it appropriate for me to call you parents, uncles and aunts?"
"My father is not at home, my mother, what do you call it so casually?"
Zhou Luo thought for a while, then looked at Zhou Shiqin: "I think, let's call her Auntie."
Zhou Shiqin nodded: "Yes."
The car stopped, and someone like a bodyguard standing in the yard opened the door for them. When Zhou Luo got out of the car, he saw a noble and elegant middle-aged woman standing less than three meters away from the car. She was smiling. Looking at Zhou Luo.
Zhou Luo froze, looking to Zhou Shiqin for help.
Zhou Shiqin introduced: "Zhou Luo, this is my mother." He looked at Zhou's mother and said, "Mom, he is the Zhou Luo I mentioned to you."
Zhou Luo said obediently and politely: "Hello, Auntie."
Zhou's mother smiled all over her face: "Okay, your child... is even more beautiful than Auntie imagined."
Having said that, Zhou Luo blushed, and rubbed her hands in a helpless way: "Auntie, I'm exaggerating."
Zhou's mother beamed: "Is it cold? Come on, let's go into the room and talk." Then she said: "Dinner is ready, we can chat while eating."
Zhou Luo took a deep breath, followed Zhou Shiqin and Zhou's mother into the living room.
Mother Zhou was indeed as Zhou Shiqin said, a very easy-going and talkative person, easy to get along with, the atmosphere at the dinner table was not bad, and Zhou Luo gradually relaxed.This first meal ended perfectly.
Zhou's mother knew that the two of them were exhausted from Beijing to Shanghai, and they ate a little fruit after dinner, so they let them take a bath and go to bed.
When lying on the bed, Zhou Luo stared blankly at the chandelier above his head, thoughtful. Although Zhou Shiqin's mother was very easy to get along with, there were still many days before the Chinese New Year. It's very embarrassing.But he doesn't have that much money to stay in a hotel, so he can only be vigilant to himself now, and trouble others as little as possible.
In the following days, Zhou Shiqin was in charge of the role of "tour guide" and took Zhou Luo to eat, drink and enjoy Shanghai. Book a hotel, but Zhou Luo's heart aches every time he sees Zhou Shiqin swiping his card at the hotel. It's a safflower ticket. The hotel Zhou Shiqin brought him to stay in is very high-end, and it costs more than 2000 a night.
When he heard this price for the first time, he almost fell off the bed.I proposed to Zhou Shiqin to live in a cheap hotel, or to go home, but Zhou Shiqin just smiled gently, telling him not to care about anything, not to ask anything, just eat, drink and have fun, and enjoy every minute and every minute of the present. one second.Zhou Luo knew that he couldn't talk to Zhou Shiqin, so he could only obediently listen to him.
That night, during dinner time, Zhou Shiqin drove Zhou Luo to a rather romantic French restaurant. After entering the door, the two of them were led into a private room by the waiter.
Walking into the private room and sitting down, there was already red wine and candlelight on the table. The atmosphere in the room was a bit romantic. Zhou Luo sat down a little nervously. He felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.
The waiter said that the steak would be served later, Zhou Shiqin waved his hand to signal them to go down first, he opened a bottle that looked like red wine, poured two glasses, and handed Zhou Luo a glass: "Drink some first."
"...Ah?" Zhou Luo frowned: "Brother Zhou, I... don't drink."
Zhou Shiqin smiled: "Of course I know, this is not wine, if you don't believe me, try it."
Zhou Luo took it suspiciously, first smelled it, and then took a sip: "This is it?"
"Grape juice, grape juice without any alcohol, children can also drink it." Zhou Shiqin explained: "Even pregnant people can drink it."
Only then did Zhou Luo feel relieved. He felt that the sweet and sour taste was delicious, so he drank two more sips.
Before the steak was served, there were a lot of appetizers. The choices were very rich and the taste was great. It was the first time for Zhou Luo to eat in this kind of place, especially the waiter was waiting on him, which made him very reserved, and he was not very good at Western food. I like it, I think the taste is not as appetizing as Chinese food, but the atmosphere is very good, and it is Zhou Shiqin's kindness, Zhou Luo still enjoys it quite a bit.When the waiter brought up the steak, Zhou Shiqin asked the waiter to go down, leaving the two of them in the private room, and Zhou Luo relaxed.
Zhou Shiqin watched him let out a sigh of relief, and asked with a smile, "Nervous?"
Zhou Luo smiled embarrassingly: "It's not that I'm nervous, I just felt that the two of us were standing by our table just now, staring at us while we were eating, it was weird."
Zhou Shiqin smiled: "I don't like being stared at when I eat." He took a sip of grape juice: "Actually, I think Western food is not as delicious as our Chinese Xiaolongbao."
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Luo answered, "I think so too." After a pause, he wondered, "Why did Brother Zhou still come to this kind of place?" He lowered his voice, "It looks so expensive here. "
Zhou Shiqin smiled softly: "The environment here is good, and I need an atmosphere to do the next thing." Zhou Shiqin suddenly took out a very beautiful small box from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Luo.
Zhou Luo was stunned for a moment, and asked incomprehensibly, "What is this?"
"Open it and have a look." Zhou Shiqin said with a smile.
Zhou Luo took it over and opened it with doubts, and was taken aback by the ring that caught his eyes. Before he could speak, Zhou Shiqin looked at him and said, "I have confessed to you before. At that time, there was that person by your side. Now, You are single, and so am I, I like you, and it’s okay to pursue you, so I want to formally pursue you from now on.”
Hearing these words and holding the ring again, Zhou Luo felt like a hot potato. He slowly put the ring on the table and said incoherently, "Brother Zhou... you... me, my situation... ..."
"I know your situation, Zhou Luo, I don't dislike you at all, nor do I feel that you are not worthy of me, let's put aside all external factors, as far as you are concerned, do you really have no feeling for me? "
Zhou Luo looked a little flustered, it was the first time for him to be confessed so affectionately, it was a lie to say that he was unhappy, you know, his inferiority complex for many years had already convinced him that no one would like him, but in front of him there was a very outstanding It's really true that his man confessed to him... But, the better Zhou Shiqin treats him, the more he feels that he can't hurt others.
He pursed the corners of his lips: "Brother Zhou, I thank you, but I really don't deserve it."
Zhou Shiqin sighed silently: "Zhou Luo, I'm really serious, I know, because you have experienced some things, you have always treated yourself like a little snail, shrinking yourself into the shell when you encounter something Inside, when you have nothing to do, you carry a heavy shell every day. Zhou Luo, I think you think too much and put too much pressure on yourself. If nothing else, even if you don’t want to be emotional Things, then you have to think about the future, isn’t it good to be with me? I can’t guarantee that you will be 100% satisfied, but I will try my best to ensure that you don’t have to worry about food and clothing. .”
Zhou Luo lowered his eyes and fell silent.
The words "wandering around" deeply touched a certain nerve in his heart, making his nose a little sore all of a sudden.He really felt that he was wandering all the time, without a fixed place to settle himself, because he had no home.
He is like a stray cat in this world, looking for something every day. While looking for food, he is actually looking for it. Is there a kind-hearted person who can adopt him home.
And Zhou Shiqin in front of him is gentle, kind and upright, with a good family background and good looks. What he has brought him to experience these days is something he has never experienced before. His temper and even the tone of his speech are all fantasies of his own. The image of a good man.
And Zhou Shiqin is really kind to him, not only these days, but in the past two years or so, he has been sincerely kind to himself, no matter everything he does or every word he says, he touches himself , but I don't know why, such a good man, but he is only moved by him in his heart. It's not that he doesn't know what to do, but who can say what love is.
He thought, if he was really with Zhou Shiqin, then Zhou Shiqin would be at a great loss, really a big loss.
Zhou Luo was thinking, slowly raised his eyes, bit his lips, and said again: "Brother Zhou, this..." He pushed the ring towards him: "I can't take it."
Zhou Shiqin was obviously taken aback, and blurted out, "Is it because I'm not good enough for you? Or you don't like me?"
This made Zhou Luo startled, and quickly shook his head: "No, Brother Zhou, really not, I, I..." He bit his lower lip: "I, can I think about it?" , I was a little unprepared."
"Okay, then I'll wait for your reply." Zhou Shiqin said with a sigh of relief, "Come on, eat the steak while it's hot, or it won't taste good when it's cold."
As if relieved, Zhou Luo adjusted his mood and lowered his head to eat, but suddenly felt a little restless.Zhou Shiqin's kindness made him very grateful, but he always felt uncomfortable in his heart, especially after being together for so long, seeing Zhou Shiqin's attention to detail from the inside out made him feel that he was not in the same world with him.
This gap comes not only from the outside, but also from his inner inferiority complex.
Zhou Luo was a little cramped for the meal. After eating the steak, the waiter brought fruit salad again.
Zhou Shiqin said, "Come, Zhou Luo, eat some fruit."
"Okay Brother Zhou, you eat too."
Zhou Shiqin ate a mouthful of small tomatoes and asked, "Are you full?"
"I'm full, how about you, Brother Zhou?"
Zhou Shiqin looked at him with a smile: "I said I'm not full, do you believe me?"
Zhou Luo opened his eyes slightly and looked at him, because Zhou Shiqin ordered a lot of things for this steak meal, he was surprised: "No, I'm not full? Why don't you order more?"
The smile on the corner of Zhou Shiqin's mouth grew stronger: "I lied to you."
Zhou Luo was taken aback for a moment, and then he also laughed: "Brother Zhou, you are really good."
Zhou Shiqin poured a glass of red wine and asked, "Would you like some red wine? It's very sweet."
Zhou Luo hesitated for a moment, picked up the wine glass, Zhou Shiqin poured him a glass, he took a sip, and said pleasantly, "It's delicious."
Seeing his bright smile again, Zhou Shiqin felt relaxed. He was not stupid in his actions just now. It could be seen that Zhou Luo's shock was obviously greater than his surprise. No matter how bad Gao Yu was for that person, he still couldn't let him go. .
Zhou Shiqin sighed secretly, took a sip of the wine, put down the glass and asked, "Do you want to eat anything else?" He raised his wrist and glanced at his watch: "It's only a little past nine o'clock in the evening, and it's still a while before going to sleep. "
"I'm stuffed."
"Then, shall we go back?"
"it is good."
After leaving the restaurant and getting into the car, Zhou Shiqin asked, "Do you want to go shopping again?"
"Oh, good." Zhou Luo had no idea: "Everything is arranged by Brother Zhou."
Zhou Shiqin laughed: "I'll take you shopping."
"it is good."
Zhou Shiqin drove Zhou Luo to the shopping mall, where he bought a mobile phone for Zhou Luo.Zhou Luo refused at first, but in that kind of place, it would be impolite for several waiters to hold their mobile phones and ask them one by one.
He didn't rush to pay until it was time to pay, but when he heard the price, he almost fell to the ground. The price of this phone was much higher than the money in his bag.
In the end, Zhou Shiqin paid the money. Zhou Luo felt embarrassed. On the way home, he hesitated for a while before saying, "Brother Zhou, I will return the money for the phone to you."
Zhou Shiqin, who was driving the car, glanced at him: "In just a short while today, you have already rejected me twice."
After hearing this, Zhou Luo was stunned, and then explained apologetically: "No, Big Brother Zhou, that, I just think, this... I... I have already spent too much money on you these days, and you give me money again." I bought this and that, and now I’m buying a mobile phone... I, I feel very embarrassed." His explanation stuttered.
But the sincerity inside Zhou Shiqin knew it, he smiled and said: "I understand what you mean, but, I bought you a mobile phone only after so many days in the past. During the Chinese New Year, you also need a working mobile phone to communicate with your mother in Beijing."
Zhou Shiqin said again: "Besides, I buy things for people I like, isn't it normal and should be."
Zhou Luo looked at the packaged mobile phone and thought about Zhou Shiqin's words, his heart was warm.
That's right, two days ago, he was still thinking about buying a mobile phone to call his mother, but today Zhou Shiqin has already settled the matter. This man is really considerate, gentle, and careful.
I have to say that during these days of getting along, at a certain moment, he felt that his heart was really moved.
With this mobile phone, it is indeed much more convenient, at least he can call his mother anytime.Zhou Luo played with the new mobile phone, looked at the manual and studied it carefully.
Zhou Shiqin picked up a glass of boiled water and handed it to Zhou Luo: "Come, have a glass of water."
Zhou Luo said thank you, took the water and drank it slowly, the water was very warm, and the room was also very warm, making her heart warmer.
"It's so warm," he said.
"Yeah, it's very warm in the room, so you've already taken a shower, so don't wear so much."
Zhou Luo looked down at the clothes he was wearing. He put on long johns under the bathrobe. It was really hot. He loosened the strap of the bathrobe: "This bathrobe leaks too much, don't wear it. Long johns, my legs feel chilly."
These words made Zhou Shiqin laugh out loud: "You are really... so cute."
Zhou Luo smiled foolishly and continued to drink water.
Zhou Shiqin took his cell phone to look at it, and asked, "Is the cell phone easy to use?"
"Easy to use." Zhou Luo put the water glass on the table.
"As long as it's easy to use." After speaking, he put the phone by Zhou Luo's hand.
Zhou Luo picked it up, looked at the phone and said, "I just played with it. This one can take pictures and videos. Then, when I go out to play in the future, I want to take pictures of the night view of Shanghai. It's really beautiful."
"Well, that's right. Anyway, there are still a lot of places I haven't visited, and I haven't seen a lot of scenery. I'll let you take enough pictures."
Zhou Luo put down his phone, and smiled silly again: "Okay." Then he said: "It will be New Year's Eve in two days, why don't we go back to your house?"
"Of course, we will go home tomorrow."
"okay."
Zhou Shiqin really didn't understand why his mother and Aunt Chen had such a big feud, they had been arguing for more than 30 years, and they were still arguing.What is even more depressing is that the war between the two women involves the younger generation.
He also didn't understand why his father was so disgusted with his liking for men, and insisted on getting some paper documents, which made his mother and Aunt Chen start to do anything for the family property, disturbing him and making him feel safe.
Zhou Luo slept for a long time. When he woke up, it was already dark and Zhou Shiqin was not there. Zhou Luo washed up and started cooking dinner.
After he finished cooking, Zhou Shiqin didn't come home after waiting for a long time. Zhou Luo got up to find his mobile phone and put in the battery, but he couldn't turn it on.
Zhou Luo fiddled with it for a while, and then charged it again, but still couldn't turn it on. He sighed softly, went to the sofa, picked up the landline to call Zhou Shiqin, but there was no answer for the time being, so he had no choice but to hang up , sitting there quietly waiting, I don't know how much time has passed, Zhou Luo looked at the clock on the wall, it was already nine o'clock in the evening, and Zhou Shiqin hadn't come back yet.
Zhou Luo sat there in a daze for a while, looking at the cold food, heaved a long sigh, it was past ten o'clock in the evening, he was also tired from sitting, and was going to bed.
Just when he finished washing and went to the bedroom, Zhou Shiqin just opened the door and entered the house. He looked a bit unwell and walked a little crookedly.
Zhou Luo was taken aback, and quickly stepped forward to support him, the pungent smell of alcohol made him frown, Zhou Luo helped Zhou Shiqin take off his coat, and asked with concern: "Brother Zhou, are you alright?"
"It's okay." Zhou Shiqin smiled faintly, "You haven't slept yet?"
"No."
Zhou Shiqin stroked his hair with a smile: "No need to help, I can do it myself."
"I'll go get you a glass of water."
"Okay." Zhou Shiqin loosened his tie: "Thank you."
Zhou Luo handed the water to his hand, and thoughtfully added a little sugar in it to hangover.
Zhou Shiqin took a sip, sat there and took a deep breath. Although he drank some wine, it didn't make him feel much better. The stagnation in his chest still couldn't go away.He rubbed the space between his brows, and suddenly he missed that little bastard Su Jingyan. If he had been there, the haze in his heart might have been dispelled by his glib and pistachio appearance.
Zhou Shiqin glanced at Zhou Luo who was sitting there with a worried face looking at him. His heart trembled. Compared with Su Jingyan, Zhou Luo gave him the feeling of being quiet, very comfortable and quiet. If you don't take the initiative, he is Never come forward.This is exactly the opposite of Su Jingyan.
Zhou Shiqin couldn't help but raised his hand to stroke Zhou Luo's hair again, and said gently, "Just pretend I didn't say anything about going to Shanghai for the New Year. You can be wherever you want, and no one can force you. As long as you're happy. "
Zhou Luo paused, lowered his eyes: "Actually, I'm hesitant about going to Shanghai, but I'm afraid of celebrating the New Year alone, so..." He raised his eyes and looked at Zhou Shiqin: "I've made up my mind. , go to Shanghai with you."
These words surprised Zhou Shiqin: "Are you... going to Shanghai?"
"Well." Zhou Luo said with a slight smile: "I think, before I go back to school, I'll go to Shanghai to see, I haven't been there yet, and, I'll just blackmail you once and go home with you Eat and drink." After speaking, she blushed a little embarrassedly.
Zhou Shiqin was a little pleasantly surprised, and he smirked twice at Zhou Luo's sudden agreement: "Really?"
"Of course it's true." Zhou Luo scratched his hair and said, "Go and see your house, you have to eat and sleep."
Zhou Shiqin smiled and stretched out his arms to wrap around Zhou Luo's shoulders: "Don't worry, food, housing and play are all included, what do you want about our family?"
Zhou Luo felt a little embarrassed again, especially with Zhou Shiqin holding his shoulders like this, his body was a little stiff, so he straightened his back and tried to relax.
Zhou Shiqin said again: "Then when we go to Shanghai, the time is up to you."
Zhou Luo blinked: "Well, you should decide the time."
"Then why don't we leave tomorrow and go back early so we can have more fun." Zhou Shiqin said, "Is that okay?"
Zhou Luo looked at Zhou Shiqin's smiling eyebrows, and nodded with a hum.
Zhou Shiqin was very fast. When he woke up the next day, he told Zhou Luo that the plane ticket had already been booked, and it was after three o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhou Luo was startled: "So fast."
"It's not fast. I wanted to book this morning, but I feel a little rushed."
"Oh."
The breakfast was hot, the untouched food from last night. During the meal, Zhou Shiqin said, "Do you want to visit your mother's place before you leave?"
Zhou Luo's expression froze, then he shook his head: "No."
He was afraid that if he went, he would not want to leave.
Zhou Shiqin coughed lightly: "Okay, then we'll go directly to the airport."
"……it is good."
After the meal, the two sat together and had a conversation, and then simply packed their luggage. Zhou Shiqin had the habit of taking a nap, so he stretched out and asked Zhou Luo if he wanted to sleep for a while.
Zhou Luo thought for a while and decided to take a nap too, so the two went back to their respective bedrooms to sleep.
In fact, Zhou Luo couldn't sleep, he was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
He was thinking, what gifts to buy for Zhou Shiqin's family when he went to Zhou Shiqin's house?
Thinking of this, he sat up, took out his wallet, and counted the money in it. Including the money for distributing leaflets, he now has 2293 yuan. Zhou Luo took out 500 yuan from it and decided to use the money to buy gifts. I can't take it out, that's all I can do.
I also wondered, if I went to Zhou Shiqin's house for the first time, I would bother me there for many days, and I would spend the New Year at his house, so 500 yuan was not enough?

I bought a plane ticket, and the plane ticket alone cost a lot of money. The most important thing is Brother Zhou's family.Thinking this way, another 500 yuan was drawn.
Well, 1000 yuan to buy a gift.
Zhou Luo put away the rest of the money, and put the 1000 yuan he took out at hand, thinking about what to buy.
While he was thinking hard, Zhou Shiqin opened the door and walked in. It was too late for Zhou Luo to put away the money, he was a little embarrassed: "Brother Zhou, why did you wake up so soon?"
Zhou Shiqin came over and sat by the bed, and said with a smile, "I still want to ask you, why didn't you sleep? This is..." Glancing at the 1000 yuan, he asked doubtfully, "How much money?"
Zhou Luo laughed dryly: "That...um."
Zhou Shiqin smiled, and then picked up the money and put it in Zhou Luo's hands: "You, keep the money well, and you don't need to think about buying gifts."
Zhou Luo was surprised by this, and he said in a daze, "Brother Zhou, how do you...know that I want to..."
"Because I'm your big brother Zhou." Zhou Shiqin held Zhou Luo's hand as he spoke, "My house is just like yours, so do you still need to bring gifts when you go back to your own house?"
Zhou Luo remained silent, he looked at Zhou Shiqin gratefully, his heart trembled for a moment, his whole heart felt warm.
Zhou Shiqin's words made him relax. The two of them ate at the airport and boarded the plane after a while.Before boarding the plane, Zhou Luoxin said, goodbye Beijing, goodbye mother, and goodbye...
Because of leaving this time, he doesn't plan to come to Beijing again.
When we got off the plane, at around five o'clock, as soon as we got out of the airport, we saw two bodyguards bowed slightly to Zhou Shiqin, and called out in unison, Young Master, and then one bodyguard helped Zhou Luo carry the luggage, while the other opened the door. The door of a car.
Zhou Luo was obviously taken aback by this situation. He looked at Zhou Shiqin and asked him for help. Zhou Shiqin smiled at him, "Get in the car."
"Oh." Zhou Luo got into the car in a daze.
The car drove out of the airport slowly and got into the car. Zhou Shiqin smiled gently and patted Zhou Luo's hand: "Don't be so nervous, they were sent by my mother to pick us up."
Zhou Luo looked at him and nodded.
Zhou Shiqin gave him a comforting smile.
Zhou Luo breathed a sigh of relief, carefully looked inside the car, and then out the window: "Wow, Shanghai is so beautiful."
Zhou Shiqin took a look outside: "I haven't arrived at a more beautiful place yet, I'll take you to the Bund another day."
"Okay." Zhou Luo smiled expectantly.
As night fell, the night scene of Shanghai appeared, so beautiful that Zhou Luo couldn't move his eyes. He kept staring out of the car window along the way, with uncontrollable admiration and excitement in his brows and eyes.
Zhou Shiqin didn't say anything to him, but he decided in his heart that no matter whether he agreed to his own mother or not, there was one thing he had to do, and that was to make Zhou Luo happy every day in Shanghai. Happy.
Soon the car slowed down at a villa building, and as the car slowly drove into the yard of the villa, Zhou Luo's heart became tense.
He froze, and asked Zhou Shiqin cautiously: "Later, is it appropriate for me to call you parents, uncles and aunts?"
"My father is not at home, my mother, what do you call it so casually?"
Zhou Luo thought for a while, then looked at Zhou Shiqin: "I think, let's call her Auntie."
Zhou Shiqin nodded: "Yes."
The car stopped, and someone like a bodyguard standing in the yard opened the door for them. When Zhou Luo got out of the car, he saw a noble and elegant middle-aged woman standing less than three meters away from the car. She was smiling. Looking at Zhou Luo.
Zhou Luo froze, looking to Zhou Shiqin for help.
Zhou Shiqin introduced: "Zhou Luo, this is my mother." He looked at Zhou's mother and said, "Mom, he is the Zhou Luo I mentioned to you."
Zhou Luo said obediently and politely: "Hello, Auntie."
Zhou's mother smiled all over her face: "Okay, your child... is even more beautiful than Auntie imagined."
Having said that, Zhou Luo blushed, and rubbed her hands in a helpless way: "Auntie, I'm exaggerating."
Zhou's mother beamed: "Is it cold? Come on, let's go into the room and talk." Then she said: "Dinner is ready, we can chat while eating."
Zhou Luo took a deep breath, followed Zhou Shiqin and Zhou's mother into the living room.
Mother Zhou was indeed as Zhou Shiqin said, a very easy-going and talkative person, easy to get along with, the atmosphere at the dinner table was not bad, and Zhou Luo gradually relaxed.This first meal ended perfectly.
Zhou's mother knew that the two of them were exhausted from Beijing to Shanghai, and they ate a little fruit after dinner, so they let them take a bath and go to bed.
When lying on the bed, Zhou Luo stared blankly at the chandelier above his head, thoughtful. Although Zhou Shiqin's mother was very easy to get along with, there were still many days before the Chinese New Year. It's very embarrassing.But he doesn't have that much money to stay in a hotel, so he can only be vigilant to himself now, and trouble others as little as possible.
In the following days, Zhou Shiqin was in charge of the role of "tour guide" and took Zhou Luo to eat, drink and enjoy Shanghai. Book a hotel, but Zhou Luo's heart aches every time he sees Zhou Shiqin swiping his card at the hotel. It's a safflower ticket. The hotel Zhou Shiqin brought him to stay in is very high-end, and it costs more than 2000 a night.
When he heard this price for the first time, he almost fell off the bed.I proposed to Zhou Shiqin to live in a cheap hotel, or to go home, but Zhou Shiqin just smiled gently, telling him not to care about anything, not to ask anything, just eat, drink and have fun, and enjoy every minute and every minute of the present. one second.Zhou Luo knew that he couldn't talk to Zhou Shiqin, so he could only obediently listen to him.
That night, during dinner time, Zhou Shiqin drove Zhou Luo to a rather romantic French restaurant. After entering the door, the two of them were led into a private room by the waiter.
Walking into the private room and sitting down, there was already red wine and candlelight on the table. The atmosphere in the room was a bit romantic. Zhou Luo sat down a little nervously. He felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.
The waiter said that the steak would be served later, Zhou Shiqin waved his hand to signal them to go down first, he opened a bottle that looked like red wine, poured two glasses, and handed Zhou Luo a glass: "Drink some first."
"...Ah?" Zhou Luo frowned: "Brother Zhou, I... don't drink."
Zhou Shiqin smiled: "Of course I know, this is not wine, if you don't believe me, try it."
Zhou Luo took it suspiciously, first smelled it, and then took a sip: "This is it?"
"Grape juice, grape juice without any alcohol, children can also drink it." Zhou Shiqin explained: "Even pregnant people can drink it."
Only then did Zhou Luo feel relieved. He felt that the sweet and sour taste was delicious, so he drank two more sips.
Before the steak was served, there were a lot of appetizers. The choices were very rich and the taste was great. It was the first time for Zhou Luo to eat in this kind of place, especially the waiter was waiting on him, which made him very reserved, and he was not very good at Western food. I like it, I think the taste is not as appetizing as Chinese food, but the atmosphere is very good, and it is Zhou Shiqin's kindness, Zhou Luo still enjoys it quite a bit.When the waiter brought up the steak, Zhou Shiqin asked the waiter to go down, leaving the two of them in the private room, and Zhou Luo relaxed.
Zhou Shiqin watched him let out a sigh of relief, and asked with a smile, "Nervous?"
Zhou Luo smiled embarrassingly: "It's not that I'm nervous, I just felt that the two of us were standing by our table just now, staring at us while we were eating, it was weird."
Zhou Shiqin smiled: "I don't like being stared at when I eat." He took a sip of grape juice: "Actually, I think Western food is not as delicious as our Chinese Xiaolongbao."
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Luo answered, "I think so too." After a pause, he wondered, "Why did Brother Zhou still come to this kind of place?" He lowered his voice, "It looks so expensive here. "
Zhou Shiqin smiled softly: "The environment here is good, and I need an atmosphere to do the next thing." Zhou Shiqin suddenly took out a very beautiful small box from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Luo.
Zhou Luo was stunned for a moment, and asked incomprehensibly, "What is this?"
"Open it and have a look." Zhou Shiqin said with a smile.
Zhou Luo took it over and opened it with doubts, and was taken aback by the ring that caught his eyes. Before he could speak, Zhou Shiqin looked at him and said, "I have confessed to you before. At that time, there was that person by your side. Now, You are single, and so am I, I like you, and it’s okay to pursue you, so I want to formally pursue you from now on.”
Hearing these words and holding the ring again, Zhou Luo felt like a hot potato. He slowly put the ring on the table and said incoherently, "Brother Zhou... you... me, my situation... ..."
"I know your situation, Zhou Luo, I don't dislike you at all, nor do I feel that you are not worthy of me, let's put aside all external factors, as far as you are concerned, do you really have no feeling for me? "
Zhou Luo looked a little flustered, it was the first time for him to be confessed so affectionately, it was a lie to say that he was unhappy, you know, his inferiority complex for many years had already convinced him that no one would like him, but in front of him there was a very outstanding It's really true that his man confessed to him... But, the better Zhou Shiqin treats him, the more he feels that he can't hurt others.
He pursed the corners of his lips: "Brother Zhou, I thank you, but I really don't deserve it."
Zhou Shiqin sighed silently: "Zhou Luo, I'm really serious, I know, because you have experienced some things, you have always treated yourself like a little snail, shrinking yourself into the shell when you encounter something Inside, when you have nothing to do, you carry a heavy shell every day. Zhou Luo, I think you think too much and put too much pressure on yourself. If nothing else, even if you don’t want to be emotional Things, then you have to think about the future, isn’t it good to be with me? I can’t guarantee that you will be 100% satisfied, but I will try my best to ensure that you don’t have to worry about food and clothing. .”
Zhou Luo lowered his eyes and fell silent.
The words "wandering around" deeply touched a certain nerve in his heart, making his nose a little sore all of a sudden.He really felt that he was wandering all the time, without a fixed place to settle himself, because he had no home.
He is like a stray cat in this world, looking for something every day. While looking for food, he is actually looking for it. Is there a kind-hearted person who can adopt him home.
And Zhou Shiqin in front of him is gentle, kind and upright, with a good family background and good looks. What he has brought him to experience these days is something he has never experienced before. His temper and even the tone of his speech are all fantasies of his own. The image of a good man.
And Zhou Shiqin is really kind to him, not only these days, but in the past two years or so, he has been sincerely kind to himself, no matter everything he does or every word he says, he touches himself , but I don't know why, such a good man, but he is only moved by him in his heart. It's not that he doesn't know what to do, but who can say what love is.
He thought, if he was really with Zhou Shiqin, then Zhou Shiqin would be at a great loss, really a big loss.
Zhou Luo was thinking, slowly raised his eyes, bit his lips, and said again: "Brother Zhou, this..." He pushed the ring towards him: "I can't take it."
Zhou Shiqin was obviously taken aback, and blurted out, "Is it because I'm not good enough for you? Or you don't like me?"
This made Zhou Luo startled, and quickly shook his head: "No, Brother Zhou, really not, I, I..." He bit his lower lip: "I, can I think about it?" , I was a little unprepared."
"Okay, then I'll wait for your reply." Zhou Shiqin said with a sigh of relief, "Come on, eat the steak while it's hot, or it won't taste good when it's cold."
As if relieved, Zhou Luo adjusted his mood and lowered his head to eat, but suddenly felt a little restless.Zhou Shiqin's kindness made him very grateful, but he always felt uncomfortable in his heart, especially after being together for so long, seeing Zhou Shiqin's attention to detail from the inside out made him feel that he was not in the same world with him.
This gap comes not only from the outside, but also from his inner inferiority complex.
Zhou Luo was a little cramped for the meal. After eating the steak, the waiter brought fruit salad again.
Zhou Shiqin said, "Come, Zhou Luo, eat some fruit."
"Okay Brother Zhou, you eat too."
Zhou Shiqin ate a mouthful of small tomatoes and asked, "Are you full?"
"I'm full, how about you, Brother Zhou?"
Zhou Shiqin looked at him with a smile: "I said I'm not full, do you believe me?"
Zhou Luo opened his eyes slightly and looked at him, because Zhou Shiqin ordered a lot of things for this steak meal, he was surprised: "No, I'm not full? Why don't you order more?"
The smile on the corner of Zhou Shiqin's mouth grew stronger: "I lied to you."
Zhou Luo was taken aback for a moment, and then he also laughed: "Brother Zhou, you are really good."
Zhou Shiqin poured a glass of red wine and asked, "Would you like some red wine? It's very sweet."
Zhou Luo hesitated for a moment, picked up the wine glass, Zhou Shiqin poured him a glass, he took a sip, and said pleasantly, "It's delicious."
Seeing his bright smile again, Zhou Shiqin felt relaxed. He was not stupid in his actions just now. It could be seen that Zhou Luo's shock was obviously greater than his surprise. No matter how bad Gao Yu was for that person, he still couldn't let him go. .
Zhou Shiqin sighed secretly, took a sip of the wine, put down the glass and asked, "Do you want to eat anything else?" He raised his wrist and glanced at his watch: "It's only a little past nine o'clock in the evening, and it's still a while before going to sleep. "
"I'm stuffed."
"Then, shall we go back?"
"it is good."
After leaving the restaurant and getting into the car, Zhou Shiqin asked, "Do you want to go shopping again?"
"Oh, good." Zhou Luo had no idea: "Everything is arranged by Brother Zhou."
Zhou Shiqin laughed: "I'll take you shopping."
"it is good."
Zhou Shiqin drove Zhou Luo to the shopping mall, where he bought a mobile phone for Zhou Luo.Zhou Luo refused at first, but in that kind of place, it would be impolite for several waiters to hold their mobile phones and ask them one by one.
He didn't rush to pay until it was time to pay, but when he heard the price, he almost fell to the ground. The price of this phone was much higher than the money in his bag.
In the end, Zhou Shiqin paid the money. Zhou Luo felt embarrassed. On the way home, he hesitated for a while before saying, "Brother Zhou, I will return the money for the phone to you."
Zhou Shiqin, who was driving the car, glanced at him: "In just a short while today, you have already rejected me twice."
After hearing this, Zhou Luo was stunned, and then explained apologetically: "No, Big Brother Zhou, that, I just think, this... I... I have already spent too much money on you these days, and you give me money again." I bought this and that, and now I’m buying a mobile phone... I, I feel very embarrassed." His explanation stuttered.
But the sincerity inside Zhou Shiqin knew it, he smiled and said: "I understand what you mean, but, I bought you a mobile phone only after so many days in the past. During the Chinese New Year, you also need a working mobile phone to communicate with your mother in Beijing."
Zhou Shiqin said again: "Besides, I buy things for people I like, isn't it normal and should be."
Zhou Luo looked at the packaged mobile phone and thought about Zhou Shiqin's words, his heart was warm.
That's right, two days ago, he was still thinking about buying a mobile phone to call his mother, but today Zhou Shiqin has already settled the matter. This man is really considerate, gentle, and careful.
I have to say that during these days of getting along, at a certain moment, he felt that his heart was really moved.
With this mobile phone, it is indeed much more convenient, at least he can call his mother anytime.Zhou Luo played with the new mobile phone, looked at the manual and studied it carefully.
Zhou Shiqin picked up a glass of boiled water and handed it to Zhou Luo: "Come, have a glass of water."
Zhou Luo said thank you, took the water and drank it slowly, the water was very warm, and the room was also very warm, making her heart warmer.
"It's so warm," he said.
"Yeah, it's very warm in the room, so you've already taken a shower, so don't wear so much."
Zhou Luo looked down at the clothes he was wearing. He put on long johns under the bathrobe. It was really hot. He loosened the strap of the bathrobe: "This bathrobe leaks too much, don't wear it. Long johns, my legs feel chilly."
These words made Zhou Shiqin laugh out loud: "You are really... so cute."
Zhou Luo smiled foolishly and continued to drink water.
Zhou Shiqin took his cell phone to look at it, and asked, "Is the cell phone easy to use?"
"Easy to use." Zhou Luo put the water glass on the table.
"As long as it's easy to use." After speaking, he put the phone by Zhou Luo's hand.
Zhou Luo picked it up, looked at the phone and said, "I just played with it. This one can take pictures and videos. Then, when I go out to play in the future, I want to take pictures of the night view of Shanghai. It's really beautiful."
"Well, that's right. Anyway, there are still a lot of places I haven't visited, and I haven't seen a lot of scenery. I'll let you take enough pictures."
Zhou Luo put down his phone, and smiled silly again: "Okay." Then he said: "It will be New Year's Eve in two days, why don't we go back to your house?"
"Of course, we will go home tomorrow."
"okay."
