The day before Lu Ziqi went to the awards ceremony, Zhou Xuecai brought over the evening dress she was going to wear. It was a black sequined suit similar to a suit and a pair of white high heels. It seems to be much restrained in comparison.

The awards ceremony was held at [-] o'clock in the evening. Lu Ziqi was one of the fifth pair of guests on the stage. As a manager, Liu Lian should have followed.

The reality show in Chengdu started shooting a week later, but Liu Lian wanted to go back to Chengdu in advance to meet Liu’s parents and grandma in the countryside, so they booked their tickets to Chengdu very early , on the morning of the second day of the awards ceremony.

Due to the tight schedule, Liu Lian and Lu Ziqi had to go home and pack their things immediately after Lu Ziqi presented the awards.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Li Yuanyuan drove to Liu Lian's house to pick up Liu Lian and Lu Ziqi. The makeup artist and a new temporary assistant were also in the car. Lu Ziqi hurried into the car after putting on the specially prepared clothes. The makeup artist started make up.

When the car drove to the entrance of the lobby, it was surrounded by fans who had been waiting there for a long time. This time, the organizer did not deliberately conceal the invited stars, the time and the venue, just to attract more attention.

The number of fans tonight was much larger than any time Liu Lian had ever seen before. They surrounded the entrance of the lobby tightly, and some security guards who blocked people were squeezed out of the crowd.

"Ziqi, Ziqi, I love you like a mouse loves rice."

"The Zi flag is irreplaceable, and the surrounding flags are everywhere!"

"Ah—Lu Ziqi, Ziqi, Ziqi—"

Even in a car with a very good sound insulation effect, Liu Lian could hear the hoarse shouts of fans outside the car. Since the fans blocked the road, the car could not move forward, and had to enter the venue after waiting for a while Among them, Bufa and Lu Ziqi were invited stars.

The strong number of fans made Li Yuanyuan feel ashamed, and said to Lu Ziqi: "Your popularity is really extraordinary." Li Yuanyuan knew that Lu Ziqi was very popular, but he didn't know that it was so popular.

"Nonsense, you can tell by the number of followers on my Weibo." Lu Ziqi rolled his eyes at Li Yuanyuan, and then asked, "Can the car still go forward?"

Li Yuanyuan shook his head and said depressedly: "There are too many people in front, there is no way to move on unless they make way."

At this time, the impatient vehicles behind were also honking their horns, coupled with the screams of the fans, the whole scene was chaotic.

Liu Lian was almost afraid of these fans. Oftentimes, as long as there was a place where Lu Ziqi made a public appearance, fans would flock to them regardless of anything.Traffic jams are secondary, and Liu Lian is afraid that there will be a stampede accident due to too many people.

As for the madness of the fans, the experienced Lu Ziqi had no choice but to put on the earphones and lean on Liu Lian with her eyes closed to listen to the song.

After about half an hour, the long-awaited security team finally separated from the fans, and Li Yuanyuan drove forward slowly.

Lu Ziqi's hair was messed up when she arrived, and after getting out of the car and entering the rest room, the makeup artist hurriedly re-styled her hair again.

Liu Lian checked the time, and there was still an hour before the awards ceremony started, and all the guests had to be seated in 10 minutes, so Liu Lian and others could only wait in the lounge or backstage.

When Liu Lian went to pour water for Lu Ziqi, she unexpectedly saw Cao Zhiru walking slowly behind Tao Le.

Speaking of which, Liu Lian hasn't seen Cao Zhiru for a long time.Since they broke up, they have lost contact, and they don't even have each other's mobile phone number or WeChat.If Lu Ziqi and Cao Zhiru hadn't collaborated on the movie last year, Cao Zhiru would occasionally repost and comment on Liu Lian's Weibo, then they would really be no different from strangers.

Recently, Cao Zhiru has always been in the headlines of entertainment news, such as Cao Zhiru’s husband cheating, Cao Zhiru’s husband took a young woman to Sanya for vacation, Cao Zhiru’s marriage crisis, etc. The private affairs of celebrities are always topics that everyone likes to talk about, not to mention that Cao Zhiru is still a household name big star.

"Liu Lian, long time no see." Cao Zhiru first greeted Liu Lian with a smile. Although she put on heavy makeup, Liu Lian could still see the tiredness hidden on her face.

"Yeah, it's been almost a year, how are you doing recently?" As soon as she said the words, Liu Lian immediately knew that she had said something wrong. Cao Zhiru's marriage crisis is already known to many people, so she asked at this time How is she doing? Isn't this just trying to find fault? !

Before Cao Zhiru could speak, Tao Le, who felt uncomfortable with Liu Lian's words, had already impulsively said, "Since you understand it in your heart, why do you need to ask?"

Liu Lian was taken aback for a while, Tao Le's unlovable personality hasn't changed at all since they haven't seen each other for a year.

"Le..." Cao Zhiru glanced at Tao Le with an embarrassed expression, "Didn't Xiaoyun ask you for something just now? Go quickly, I'll wait for you here."

Tao Le showed reluctance on his face, but he still left after glancing at Liu Lian in a vague way.

"Sorry! I didn't mean to say that just now." Liu Lian scratched her hair and said, "I just..."

"It's okay." Cao Zhiru smiled indifferently, and said, "It's embarrassing to spread about this matter. Maybe everyone is discussing it. Anyway, I've gotten used to it after hearing it a lot."

Liu Lian thought about her words and said, "Are you here to be the award presenter?" Liu Lian thought that the award presenters were all in the same lounge, and that Cao Zhiru would appear in this lounge, so she must have the same identity as Lu Ziqi.

"No." Cao Zhiru smiled, "I am nominated for Best Actress."

"Wow, that's amazing." Liu Lian said, even if Cao Zhiru didn't win the Best Actress award in the end, it must have been a very honorable honor.

Thinking of this, Liu Lian felt a little lost. Lu Ziqi's acting skills are good, but it's a pity that he lacks good scripts and opportunities.

Cao Zhiru saw all the changes in Liu Lian's expression, and she smiled calmly: "Where's Lu Ziqi? Are you here to be the award presenter?"

"Yes." Liu Lian said awkwardly.

Then the two casually chatted about other things, until Lu Ziqi, who hadn't waited for the water, came from the next room and called out, Liu Lian and Cao Zhiru said goodbye and walked towards Lu Ziqi.

Lu Ziqi nodded expressionlessly to Cao Zhiru, and when Liu Lian approached, he glanced at her lightly, then turned and went to another lounge.

What kind of nerves is this person going on? !Liu Lian thought depressedly.

Lu Ziqi sat down on the sofa, raised his legs and didn't even look at Liu Lian.

Liu Lian stuffed the water glass into her hand: "Here, your water."

Lu Ziqi snorted, turned his head to hold the water glass and refused to drink.

"What's the matter with you?" Liu Lian said speechlessly.

Lu Ziqi snorted again: "It's nothing."

"It's fine." Liu Lian didn't want to continue to entangle with Lu Ziqi, so she went to find Li Yuanyuan, who was leaning against the window to watch the lines that Lu Ziqi was going to read later.

Looking at her expression, Li Yuanyuan knew that the two must have had a conflict again. He sighed and did not speak, and continued to look at his things.

Five minutes later, Lu Ziqi was led to his seat by the event staff, while Liu Lian and Li Yuanyuan sat in the lounge and waited.

After doing it for half an hour, Liu Lian felt too bored, so she went to the backstage alone to check the situation at the front desk. Although this awards event is not as well-known as the Golden Rooster Award or the Golden Statue Award, it is still quite prestigious in the circle. Yes, the awards ceremony is also extraordinarily grand.

Liu Lian and some staff stood behind the red curtain, looking around, the whole hall was full of black heads, and the people sitting in front were all the familiar faces Liu Lian had seen on TV.

What a grand!Liu Lian couldn't help sighing.

The first three awards were the Best Cinematography, Best Sound Effects, and Best Editing awards, followed by the Best Supporting Actress and Best Supporting Actor awards, and it was Lu Ziqi's turn to take the stage for the fourth time.

Lu Ziqi sat on the award-presenting guest seat with a smile on her face, and the lights shone on her beautiful face, giving her a stunning beauty.

In the past, Lu Ziqi had always participated in the award ceremony as a nomination award, but it was the first time for him to be an award presenter today.On the way here, Lu Ziqi was still laughing at himself and finally changed his identity, but Liu Lian could still hear the bitterness in her voice.

Lu Ziqi had been sitting with other awards presenters, talking and laughing, until she came to the stage, and she walked up to the award stage with the male celebrity arm in arm in the eyes of everyone.

After some self-introduction, Lu Ziqi chatted with the male star in order to ease the atmosphere.

"Zi Qi, it seems that this is your first time on this stage. I feel very honored to be your partner presenting awards for the first time." The male celebrity joked.

Lu Ziqi smiled and said, "Yes, it seems that you were the guest who presented the award to me last year, right? At that time, you dragged on for a full minute before giving the final answer. This time, I must delay for 1 minutes." Said At the end, Lu Ziqi blinked at the camera.

There was a burst of laughter at the scene, and a female star sitting at the front yelled that it was unfair, and said that she would delay for 3 minutes before giving up the award next time.

The atmosphere in the venue was harmonious.

After chatting for about three or four minutes, Lu Ziqi took the yellow card handed over by the staff, and the scene suddenly became quiet again. Everyone watched Lu Ziqi's intentionally slow movements with bated breath.

"Okay... I'm going to start announcing the Best Supporting Actress this time..." Lu Ziqi said, "First of all, please look at the nominations."

As soon as Lu Ziqi's voice fell, the big screen behind her began to play four female stars nominated for best supporting actress.

The introduction on the big screen was over soon, and then Lu Ziqi deliberately dragged his voice to announce the winner of the best supporting actress. A female star surnamed Zhang won the award.

Amid the applause and cheers of everyone, the winners came to the stage to receive their trophies and made a series of speeches.Immediately afterwards, the male star who took the stage with Lu Ziqi announced the winner of the Best Supporting Actor. After the winner of the Best Supporting Actor received the trophy and gave a speech, it was Lu Ziqi and her partner's turn to step down.

But at this moment, Lu Ziqi suddenly stood silently on the stage. She didn't leave, but she lowered her head and didn't speak.

The male star who was on stage with Lu Ziqi walked a few steps, turned around and found that Lu Ziqi hadn't followed, he was stunned for a while, and then walked off the stage consciously after seeing that Lu Ziqi didn't respond.

Everyone at the scene looked at Lu Ziqi in surprise.

"Originally, this kind of thing should be said when I win the award. Unfortunately, I don't have that chance this year. Today I can only borrow everyone's venue to express my thoughts. Don't you mind?" There was a long silence Then Lu Ziqi raised his head and said with a smile.

There were boos in the audience.

Liu Lian, who was in the background, looked at Lu Ziqi nervously, and suddenly understood what Lu Ziqi would say next.

"About the rumors about me on the Internet, I don't know if you have seen it." Lu Ziqi said, "So I just want to talk about this matter today."

The host standing on another stage suddenly interjected, "Is Zi Qi here to clarify the rumors on the Internet?"

Lu Ziqi shook his head: "It's not a clarification, after all, those rumors are the truth."

There was another exclamation from the audience.

Even the host on the stage was surprised: "Zi Qi, what you said is the same thing as what we understand?"

Lu Ziqi smiled and said, "I'm sure it's definitely the same thing."

Liu Lian tightened her hand holding the curtain, she knew what Lu Ziqi was talking about.Not long after Lu Ziqi made her debut, there were rumors that she was gay, and Lu Ziqi was also photographed with many intimate photos of going shopping and watching movies with different women. The topic of homosexuality has been surrounding Lu Ziqi over the years.

So when the intimate photos of Lu Ziqi and Liu Lian were photographed many times by fans, everyone was somewhat suspicious of their relationship.But due to the need for a lot of communication between the manager and the artist, everyone didn't think in a deeper direction. Only some fans of Lu Ziqi like to write some fan fiction about Lu Ziqi and Liu Lian's love for each other on the Internet.

Everyone thought it was just a misunderstanding, but today Lu Ziqi actually told everyone that this is the truth.

Presumably tomorrow's headline news will release another blockbuster. Although Lu Ziqi's homosexuality is nothing new, it is the first time that Lu Ziqi admits that he is gay, and the other party is her manager. This is still a very fresh one. information.

"I won't mention her name here, everyone must already know her." Lu Ziqi said, his serious tone and expression made everyone serious, "The reason why I want to announce this news in advance is that I don't want to passively wait for reporters to find out the truth, I think I will definitely be more embarrassed and embarrassed at that time than I am now."

"To be honest, I also have a lot of concerns. I am afraid that my fans will stop liking me and even spurn me after they know that I am gay. I am also afraid that my friends around me will look at me differently. This road is really not easy at all..." Lu Ziqi sniffed, his eyes turned red.

At this time, the fans of Lu Ziqi sitting at the back let out all kinds of screams, shouting their declaration of love for Lu Ziqi.

"Thank you, thank you very much!" Lu Ziqi bowed to everyone, "I don't know how far I can go on the road of love with her, but I don't plan to get married anymore. There is no law in China that allows homosexuals to marry , I also don’t want to go abroad to register for marriage.”

The fans screamed again, and all the guests and artists present also applauded.

The staff standing in front of Liu Lian turned their heads and looked at Liu Lian with complicated eyes.

Liu Lian: "..."

"People outside the circle will envy our glamorous life in this line of work, but many people present should know how much we have given up for this job. Many friends have to film in other places even during the Chinese New Year, and cannot go home to reunite with their families. Reporters put it online and in newspapers, but since I have chosen this career, I will not say anything."

"I know there may be a lot of negative reports about me in the news tomorrow, and I don't care. Let them go. Life is only a few decades, and you can't always live based on other people's opinions."

There was another burst of warm applause at the scene.

Lu Ziqi smiled, thought for a long time and didn't know what to say next, and said, "Okay, that's all I want to say, I'm sorry for taking up everyone's time to listen to my nonsense." After speaking, Lu Ziqi took a step back Another deep bow.

Then, amidst everyone's applause, Lu Ziqi went off the stage very calmly.

When Lu Ziqi bowed, Liu Lian had already rushed back to the lounge. Li Yuanyuan in the lounge didn't know what happened at the front desk. Seeing Liu Lian's panicked expression, she thought something happened to Lu Ziqi.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Li Yuanyuan stood up quickly and said.

At this moment, Liu Lian only felt her heart beating non-stop, as if there was a little rabbit inside.Various emotions such as joy, shock, and touch are softened together, which makes Liu Lian feel mixed feelings.

About 10 minutes later, Lu Ziqi returned to the waiting room, and she didn't have any special reaction when she saw Liu Lian, as if what she said just now was an illusion.

Liu Lian's face turned red like a big apple, she was so focused on her own business that she didn't dare to look up at Lu Ziqi.

Li Yuanyuan only thought it was because they were having a conflict again, so she curled her lips and said nothing.

When Li Yuanyuan drove the car out of the lobby, the fans who were guarding the door frantically surrounded them again. What Lu Ziqi said on stage just now had been spread among them, and some fans who refused to accept the reality cried Lying on the car all over the place let Lu Ziqi tell her that it was not true, but it was more a voice of blessing them.

Speechless Liu Lian supported her forehead.

Lu Ziqi, who seemed to be in a good mood, opened the car window and waved to the fans after the car drove away.

There was another scream of excitement from behind the car.

Li Yuanyuan sent Liu Lian and Lu Ziqi to the downstairs of Liu Lian's apartment and drove away. Lu Ziqi was still wrapped in a heavy coat, but Liu Lian was only wearing a thin coat, and it was cold when he got out of the car. She trembled.

Lu Ziqi took off his coat and put it on Liu Lian.

"It's not spring yet, so I'm in a hurry to wear so little." On the way to the elevator, Lu Ziqi glanced at Liu Lian and said.

Liu Lian couldn't help but pouted, with a hint of coquettishness in her tone: "I'm in a hurry to go out this afternoon, so I forgot to take my coat..."

The elevator stopped on the 23rd floor, Lu Ziqi pressed the button to get on the elevator, and the numbers on the screen above the elevator began to jump.

"Hey, why aren't you talking?" Liu Lian, who didn't wait for Lu Ziqi's response for a while, said dissatisfied.

Lu Ziqi asked suspiciously, "What am I going to say?"

Liu Lian snorted, turned her head to face Lu Ziqi with the back of her head, two little blushes floated on her cheeks: "You don't even care that I wear so little."

"That's obviously your own problem, and it's not that I made you wear so little." Lu Ziqi's face was full of black lines.

Liu Lian, who wanted to flirt with Lu Ziqi, suddenly felt a heavy sense of frustration. This Lu Ziqi really didn't understand the mood, and couldn't even understand the meaning of her words.

When the elevator door opened, an angry Liu Lian stepped into the elevator first.

Lu Ziqi looked at Liu Lian's awkward figure and smiled lightly, this guy is really funny.

In the elevator, the awkward Liu Lian ignored Lu Ziqi, and Lu Ziqi didn't speak, the two of them remained silent until the elevator door opened again.

Liu Lian walked out of the elevator directly, not bothering to pay attention to Lu Ziqi behind her, so she took out the key and opened the door.

After entering the door, Liu Lian, who was about to go forward, was suddenly grabbed by Lu Ziqi's arm.

Liu Lian turned her head and said in a stiff voice, "What are you doing?"

Lu Ziqi smiled and said lightly, "Of course there is something wrong."

Liu Lian subconsciously asked, "What's the matter?"

Lu Ziqi couldn't help but put his arms around Liu Lian's waist, and kissed her on the lips.

"I seem to have three words that I haven't said to you..." Lu Ziqi sneered in Liu Lian's ear, "I love you."

The author has something to say: So the main text will end here~ I originally planned to write more than 30 words, but I feel that it is too cumbersome, so I plan to write a story-driven article in the next book.

☆、【Special】

Five years have passed quickly. Liu Lian has attended several class reunions, and almost all of her classmates have already married, except for a few students who focus on work and have not considered this issue yet.

And Liu Lian, a golden single woman who is beautiful and has a good job, is naturally the object of everyone's pursuit. There are even a few friends brought by male classmates who express their intentions to date Liu Lian, but Liu Lian is always tactful. refused.

Lu Ziqi, who knew about this from Li Yuanyuan, soon spewed fire everywhere at home, and ordered Liu Lian not to participate in those inexplicable gatherings.

Liu Lian felt aggrieved, but also very emotional.

It seems that she came to Beijing with a full of dreams yesterday, but now more than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, and those classmates who once clamored to be single all their lives have already married, and even their children can come out to play soy sauce .

Liu Lian and Lu Ziqi live together, even at work, they are always together, there are very few opportunities to not see each other, and it is not annoying to live sticky all day for five years.

After formally establishing a good relationship with Liu Lian, Lu Ziqi began to work hard in her career. Every year, she took on a lot of dramas and activities, often flying around the world, and even spent very little time in Beijing. Liu Lian Nature was always by her side.

The two lived a happy and fulfilling life, but Liu Lian always felt that something was missing in her life.After the latest scene wrapped, Liu Lian and Lu Ziqi returned to Beijing to rest for a month.

Waking up one morning, Liu Lian was sitting in front of the dressing table to put on makeup. She suddenly found that there were some wrinkles in the corners of her eyes, and there were even a few white hairs hidden in her hair.

At this moment, Liu Lian suddenly realized that she was almost 35 years old, she was already at the age of four, and she would be 40 years old in five years.

Liu Lian suddenly became uneasy. She felt that she hadn't done anything in her life, how could time pass so fast!

In the next few days, Liu Lian went to the beauty salon more frequently, and she absolutely had to go to bed before ten o'clock at night, even if Lu Ziqi pestered her to ask for intimacy, she ruthlessly refused.

Lu Ziqi was speechless, dissatisfied with desire, "Why have you become so strange recently! You used to stay up all night without saying a word."

"The past was the past, and the present is the present. Can the past be compared with the present? Don't you look at how old we are now." Liu Lian pinched Lu Ziqi's swollen face and said, "Going to bed early will keep your health healthy, otherwise you will grow old." faster."

"You're exaggerating!" Lu Ziqi wailed, "You're the one who neglected me, and you're still looking for a reason!"

Liu Lian snorted, she was too lazy to argue with Lu Ziqi any longer, she covered herself with a quilt and went to sleep.

A few days later, Lu Ziqi, who was about to get sick at home, took the initiative to go to Chengdu to see Liu's father and Liu mother. Naturally, Liu Lian couldn't wish more, and booked a flight ticket from Beijing to Chengdu that night.

Liu's father and Liu mother will retire in less than five years. The school arranges very few courses for them. They only let each of them lead two classes, and there are only about seven or eight classes a week.

When Liu Lian and Lu Ziqi arrived at the Chengdu airport, it was already past 10:[-] p.m., and Liu's father personally drove Liu Ma to pick them up. After waiting at the airport for about four or ten minutes, Liu's father and Liu Ma finally saw the girl from the airport. Liu Lian and Lu Ziqi who came out.

"Mom—" Liu Lian put down her luggage and ran over to hug Liu Ma, "I miss you so much."

"Hey, Mom misses you too." Liu Ma stroked Liu Lian's hair and said, "You haven't come back to see us for a long time."

Liu Lian said with a hint of coquettishness, "Isn't this busy with work!"

Mama Liu laughed, looking at Liu Lian with distressed eyes.

After Lu Ziqi finished greeting Liu's father and Liu's mother, Liu's father urged them to get in the car and go to the hotel for dinner.

Father Liu booked a five-star hotel tonight. Normally, Father Liu and Mother Liu would be reluctant to waste money on it, but today their precious daughter is back, so of course it should be a luxury.

Seeing Liu's father and mother who hadn't seen for a long time, Liu Lian's gloomy mood was also swept away, talking and laughing with Liu's father and Liu mother while eating.

On the night when Liu Lian told Liu Ma that she was going back to Chengdu, Liu Ma had already cleaned up Liu Lian's bedroom early, and they only needed to take a bath before they could rest and sleep.

When Liu Lian finished her bath and was about to go to the bedroom, Liu Ma, who was waiting on the sofa in the living room, suddenly called her over.

"Mom, what's the matter?" Liu Lian asked while wiping her hair with a towel.

Liu Ma looked at the back of Lu Ziqi who was walking towards the bathroom, and after she closed the bathroom door, she mysteriously took Liu Lian's hand and walked into her bedroom.

For the first time, Liu Lian felt that her mother's childish behavior was very cute. After Liu's mother closed the door, she couldn't help laughing and said: "Mom, don't shut me up. If you have something to say, hurry up, I feel uncomfortable if I have an appetite." .”

Liu Ma pulled Liu Lian to the bed and sat down. After thinking about it for a while, she tentatively said, "Hey, let me ask you a question... Have you ever thought about having a child?"

Hearing this, Liu Lian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Mom, why are you asking such a question all of a sudden?"

"Look, you're almost 35 years old. It's not an option to go on like this. A woman must have a child of her own. Otherwise, who will take care of you when you get old?" Liu Ma said with a sigh.

Liu Lian smiled and joked, "Lu Ziqi can take care of me."

Liu Ma glared at Liu Lian: "Can she take care of you for the rest of your life? Maybe she will walk ahead of you, and you will be so lonely that you won't even have anyone to talk to."

"Okay, I know. In fact, I've been thinking about this issue recently." Liu Lian held Mama Liu's hand and said, "I need a child, but I'm not sure which orphanage to visit."

Some time ago, Liu Lian had been feeling irritable, as if something was missing in her life, but she couldn't tell exactly what she was missing.

Until one day, Liu Lian and Lu Ziqi had dinner and were walking in the pedestrian street. She saw many young mothers with children. With a small face, she kept calling her mother in a childish voice.

At that moment, Liu Lian suddenly understood what she lacked - she wanted a child that belonged to her and Lu Ziqi.

Since this idea was born in her heart, Liu Lian has been paying attention to the dynamics of many orphanages in Beijing, but she has hesitated for a long time before making a decision.

Unexpectedly, Liu Lian's words made Liu's face darken, and she said, "Why do you want to adopt someone else's child? Wouldn't it be good to have one yourself?"

"Mom, what are you talking about?" Liu Lian said, "It's impossible for me to give birth to one by myself, but I will try my best to adopt a child without parents and bring it up from a young age."

"I said where do you want to go? You haven't heard me finish." Liu Ma stretched out her index finger and tapped Liu Lian's forehead, "You know Aunt Xie who lives next door to us? Her daughter's husband can't Her daughter was conceived by artificial insemination, which I think is a good method.”

Liu Lian was startled: "You mean..."

"I'll let you try that method, at least you can have a biological child, and it's not a betrayal of Zi Qi."

It has to be said that at this moment Liu Lian was a little moved. She really wanted a child who was related to her by blood.

"Then... let me think about it again..." Liu Lian said.

Lu Ziqi didn't know the entanglements in Liu Lian's heart, and thought that she was worrying about the wrinkles on her face, so she didn't pay much attention to it, and continued to eat and play as usual.

It took a week for Liu's father and Liu mother to take Lu Ziqi to play in Chengdu. Lu Ziqi was so happy that he didn't even want to go back to Beijing, and repeatedly delayed buying a ticket back to Beijing.

At noon on Tuesday, Aunt Zhang next door's granddaughter turned one year old. Her family invited many people to dinner, including Liu Lian's family, of course. Liu Lian also went with a well-dressed Lu Ziqi.

Everyone's focus was on that cute little protagonist, and they didn't expect a big star like Lu Ziqi to appear beside them, so they didn't recognize Lu Ziqi.

Auntie Zhang’s daughter is the same age as Liu Lian, and she was married very late, so everyone was even more surprised when they saw Liu Lian who was not yet married. disease.

After a meal, Liu Lian was upset, and after only a few chopsticks, she couldn't help but dragged Lu Ziqi away.

"What are you bothering with?" Lu Ziqi asked on the way back.

"It's nothing." Liu Lian said casually, kicking the stones under her feet while walking, "I just think it's too annoying for them to keep asking me those questions."

Lu Ziqi had a suspicious expression: "I'm afraid it's more than that!"

"What else can I bother about?" Liu Lian became a little impatient. She and Lu Ziqi had been together for so many years, and Lu Ziqi couldn't even guess what was going on in her heart.

Lu Ziqi suddenly stopped in his tracks, and stared at Liu Lian intently with his pitch-black pupils.

Liu Lian was startled, touched her face and said, "Why are you staring at me like that? Is there something on my face?"

Lu Ziqi shook his head, and after a long silence, he said, "Are you doing it for the child's business?"

Liu Lian curled her lips, thinking how dull you are, you don't know what I'm thinking until now.

After a while, Lu Ziqi said again: "I heard everything you said to Aunt Liu that night."

Liu Lian stared and said, "You actually eavesdropped on us!"

Lu Ziqi was speechless: "Please, are you talking too loudly, okay? And that house is not soundproof, I can hear it clearly when I stand outside."

"Then what about you?" Liu Lian thought for a while, and said with a sense of apprehension, "What do you think..." To be honest, Liu Lian was very afraid that Lu Ziqi would say no.

Lu Ziqi did not answer Liu Lian's words, but asked instead: "Old Liu, tell me the truth, do you want to do that?"

"Of course..." Liu Lian nodded with her head down. Any woman wants to have a child of her own. She is just an ordinary person, and of course she is no exception.

Liu Lian knew Lu Ziqi well, and considering Lu Ziqi's possessiveness towards her, she would definitely not let Liu Lian conceive someone else's child.And Liu Lian thought about it from another angle, she didn't want Lu Ziqi to do such a thing, it felt like raising Lu Ziqi and other men's children.

Just when Liu Lian was about to change the subject in frustration, Lu Ziqi suddenly said, "Actually, you just need to tell me about this kind of thing directly. I'm not too old-fashioned, so of course I won't stop you, and I will support you." Children are definitely much better than raising someone else."

Liu Lian, who was ready to be rejected, raised her head in shock: "You...you mean..."

Lu Ziqi smiled and hugged Liu Lian: "Since Mama Liu has already said so, she must have already inquired about it, so you should do what she said."

"Zi Qi..." Liu Lian burst into tears uncontrollably.

"Don't cry, it's so ugly." Lu Ziqi wiped the tears from Liu Lian's face with his hand.

Artificial insemination sounds complicated, but it is actually quite simple to do. Liu Lian accepted the sperm of a handsome Italian boy studying in Beijing, and started the artificial insemination operation after making all preparations.

She has never eaten pork, but she has seen pigs run away. Liu Lian knew that pregnancy was hard before, but she never thought that she would suffer so much. The loss of appetite and the occasional morning sickness made her face turn pale. Lu Ziqi was so distressed that she hurriedly bought A lot of supplements were stewed for Liu Lian to eat.
