Chapter 806: Chapter 544: Unexpected
Chapter 526
“Do you think I wanted to single her out and ask her?” Old Madam Zhou snorted at her beloved grandson, “I’m just worried that another Ye iru might co, it’s better to be cautious.”
“Grandma, so now you admit Ye iru isn’t good? Rember how you praised her back then…” Zhou Mikang affectionately wrapped his arm around the old lady’s shoulder, “At that ti I even suspected she had bewitched you, but thankfully, you woke up in ti.”
“Little rascal, are you saying Grandma can’t judge people?” Old Madam Zhou looked displeased at her grandson, “Stop using old stories to judge people, okay?
This Huang Suai, I’ve interacted with her not many tis, but I can feel she’s definitely not a simple character, Ye iru is not on the sa level as her.
If she really has an interest in you, it would be troubleso. A girl with such a personality tends to have a relentless pursuit in whatever she does; if she fixes on you, no matter how strong-willed you are, your family harmony will be affected.”
“Grandma, you’re worrying too much. Why would she be interested in ?” Zhou Mikang helped the old lady sit down and continued, “You consider your treasure, but in others’ eyes, am I a treasure too?
The situation with the Huang Family, Grandma also knows. I reckon Old Master Huang sees Huang Suai as the most important piece in the Huang Family, which is why he involved her in this matter; her target isn’t , Grandma, rest assured.”
“Really?” Old Madam Zhou looked sowhat disbelievingly at Zhou Mikang, “You better not be lying to comfort . Xiaomi, Grandma only recognizes Chuxia, anyone else won’t do.”
“Grandma, you should say this to Chuxia, she’d be happy.”
The old lady’s eyes widened: “Don’t change the subject!”
“Okay, okay, I won’t change the subject, Grandma, you have to trust .” Zhou Mikang smiled helplessly, “I’ve been your grandson for over twenty years, don’t you know what kind of person I am?
Not to ntion Huang Suai isn’t targeting , even if she were, I wouldn’t pay her any attention. Let’s put it this way, if I were interested in her, I would have spoken up when her family proposed marriage back then.
To , the one I feel is right is the best, once chosen, it won’t change for the rest of my life, after saying this, Grandma can be reassured, right?”
“Chuxia…” Old Madam Zhou said to Chuxia who just ca out washing her face, “Xiaomi just said, for the rest of his life, apart from you, he wouldn’t possibly like anyone else, aren’t you mad at him anymore?”
Zhou Mikang felt awkward, Grandma, she didn’t suspect anything, but you managed to suspect it, inquire about it, talk about it, and before long, you really stirred up suspicion…
“Grandma, she’s lying!” Chuxia sat opposite the two, her big eyes gleaming at Zhou Mikang’s face, her mouth curled, “Big liar!”
“Chuxia, we shouldn’t wrongly accuse people…” Zhou Mikang looked at her helplessly, “What did I lie to you about? You have to clarify.”
“What do you an, apart from , you couldn’t possibly like anyone? Don’t you like Grandpa and Grandma, Dad and Mom, brothers and sisters?”
“I an my partner!” Zhou Mikang speechlessly glanced at her, “Are you deliberately stirring up trouble?”
“Xiaomi, what’s your attitude?” Old Madam Zhou glared at her most beloved grandson, “Quickly apologize to Chuxia. If you make her angry, see if Grandma won’t smack you.”
Chuxia laughed mischievously, feeling reassured by soone’s support. Thinking this, she hugged Old Madam Zhou’s arm, “Grandma, if he dares to do anything against , I’ll complain to Grandma, rest assured, I won’t quietly tolerate it.”
“Good, if there’s anything, tell Grandma, Grandma will definitely stand up for you.”
“Grandma, I knew it, you treat the best.”
“Isn’t that just as it should be, you’re my granddaughter-in-law, if I don’t treat you well, who would I treat well?”
“Yes, Grandma should always treat well.”
“It’s a must!”
“…”
Listening to the two of them going back and forth, the lines on Zhou Mikang’s forehead grew thicker, finally he stood up and silently walked out.
“You stop right there!” Old Madam Zhou shouted at him, “Leaving without saying a word, do you even have us in your eyes?”
“Grandma, I’m afraid of interrupting your conversation.” Zhou Mikang waved his hand as he turned back, “I need to go back and attend the eting, if there’s anything, I’ll co chat with Grandma afterward.”
Serious matters are important, naturally, the old lady didn’t stop him, but she nudged Chuxia: “Go send him off, he’s been up all night, if he wasn’t worried about you, he wouldn’t have co back.”
Old Madam Zhou said this, and Chuxia didn’t hold back, she said to Zhou Mikang, “Take your ti, I’ll get you sothing to eat. Eat it on the way. You’ve stayed up all night, if you don’t eat, what are you trying to do?”
Hearing her granddaughter-in-law caring so much for her eldest grandson, Old Madam Zhou’s lips curled into a smile… She checked the ti, estimating that the old man would be back from his walk soon, and turned into the kitchen. For years, she had kept this habit, always making at least one dish for breakfast that the old man loved.
Happy marriage, perfect feelings, require work. This so-called work is about making a conscious effort, and one should never ignore the other’s feelings just because they’ve been married for a long ti, acting solely based on their own feelings.
“Here, my mom packed you so three-flavored dumplings.” As they stepped out the door, Chuxia handed the lunch box to Zhou Mikang, “When you go downstairs, tell Grandma that you ca ho during a break in etings. My mom guessed you might not have ti to eat breakfast at ho, so she prepared dumplings for you early. See how good my mom is to you? You better be filial to her, or else you’d be heartless!”
“You don’t need to emphasize that, I will treat your parents well,” Zhou Mikang said, amused, as he ruffled her hair, “Didn’t I promise you before we got married? Do you not trust , or do you not trust yourself?”
“Humph!” Chuxia snorted through her nose, turning to walk back. Zhou Mikang grabbed her, “Just going back without saying anything? I had a eting last night, I’m sleepy, say sothing to wake up.”
“Who are you kidding?” Chuxia rolled her eyes at him, “You’ve managed three days and nights without sleep, this is just one night, what’s the deal?”
“The forced sleeplessness from training and this are different. This stuff isn’t interesting, can you bla for feeling sleepy?” Zhou Mikang sighed, “Alright, it’s cold outside, go inside. Rember, trust and don’t believe everything you hear.”
“Seems like soone has already started saying sothing.” Chuxia sized him up, “Are you feeling guilty?”
“No!”
“Then why are you giving a heads up?”
“Silly!” Zhou Mikang ruffled her hair and got into the car, “During these few days of the New Year, you’re allowed to be lazy, but once it’s over, you must exercise every day. You said you don’t want to give up this opportunity, so you have to make yourself stronger, otherwise, I won’t agree.”
“Got it.” Chuxia said as she moved her hands and feet, running off in Zhou Mikang’s surprised gaze, getting farther and farther…
Until her figure turned into a small dot, Zhou Mikang shook his head amusingly and started the car.
The eting lasted until the evening before ending, not because a result had erged, but because everyone couldn’t hold on anymore, including Zhou Mikang.
As he said, the difference between forced sleeplessness from training and these etings is worlds apart.
Things you like, and things you passively accept, are really worlds apart.
Returning ho that night, Chuxia continued her interrogation when she got the chance: “You said Huang Suai wasn’t targeting you but soone else, who is that person? Don’t tell it’s my second cousin.”
“How did you know?”
“She went to Yun Doudou’s house with my second cousin that day, how do you think I know?” Chuxia rolled her eyes in exasperation, “Zhou Mikang, do you think I’m half stupid or what?”
“You…” Zhou Mikang helplessly stroked her head, “Can you not speak so harshly? I’m your husband, not your enemy. You talk so gently to others, why does it change when you talk to ?”
“It’s real!” Chuxia looked at him earnestly, “I’m showing my real self in front of you, understand? Or do you want to pretend with you like I do with others?”
“Continue being real then.” Zhou Mikang nudged her neck with his chin, scaring Chuxia into pulling her neck back quickly, her voice changing, “What, what are you trying to do?”
Zhou Mikang: “…” Really? Don’t make it seem like I’m a pervert. This was just a habitual action, I didn’t think of anything else, but with her being so startled, I actually started thinking of sothing else.
Unfortunately, as this thought circled in his mind, there was a loud knock on the door, it was Zhou Xikang: “Xiaomi, get up quickly, your second sister had a miscarriage, hurry up!”
“Wha…what?” Zhou Mikang ran out barefoot, grabbed Zhou Xikang, “When did the second sister get pregnant? How co I didn’t hear about it? Did she not say or have you been keeping it from ?”
“I don’t know, she was just taken to the hospital. It was Yoon Duo who called, she happened to receive the case, otherwise, I wouldn’t know either. Hurry up, Mom heard too, she’s changing clothes.”
“Alright.” Zhou Mikang replied, quickly ran back to change clothes, saw Chuxia already dressed waiting, and frowned, “Why are you joining in the fun, hurry and go to sleep, it’s not your business.”
“Annoying!” Chuxia glared at him annoyed, “Sothing so big happened, how can I sleep? I want to go too, or else I’ll be more upset at ho. Don’t worry, I’m still young, a night or two without sleep is fine, I can handle it.”
“Then let’s go.” Zhou Mikang didn’t have ti to argue with her, knowing her stubborn temper, he let her have her way.
After the two went downstairs, Lin Yanqiu quickly ca down as well, her eyes clearly a bit swollen, Chuxia went up to hold her, “Mom, second sister must be very upset now. You have to hold back.” (To be continued. If you like this work, welco to Qidian (qidian) to vote for recomndations and monthly passes. Your support is my greatest motivation.
