Xu Qian didn't expect her boyfriend, Qiu Mingyou, to return to New Shanghai 0297 so many days earlier than the scheduled date.
The email she just received was from Qiu Ming, saying that he would be downstairs in twenty minutes. Faced with this sudden visit, Xu Qian quickly asked the housework robot to tidy up the house, pack up all the unfinished food in the morning, and throw it away. After that, she rushed to the dressing table as fast as she could and began to touch up her makeup. She tried on several sets of clothes and finally chose a dress that looked very homely, but it also outlined her figure.
After she changed her clothes, her wristband prompted her that a visitor had requested to enter the neighborhood.
So, Xu Qian authorized it. Speaking of which, this was the first time Qiu Ming had visited her house since they had been dating for so long. It wasn't that Qiu Ming didn't want to come, but in the past, Xu Qian had deliberately controlled the progress of their relationship. She didn't want Qiu Ming to think that she was too easy to get and look down on her. Therefore, she never let Qiu Ming come up. At most, the latter would send her downstairs.
However, this time, Qiu Ming rushed back from Earth in advance for her. The first thing he did when he got off the spaceship was to look for her. Xu Qian couldn't refuse him now.
In addition, a lot of things had happened to her during this period of time, and she needed a pillar of support. So, after receiving the news of Qiu Ming's return, Xu Qian was overjoyed. For the first time, she didn't refuse his request to visit.
Xu Qian turned on the projection and switched to a movie channel. Then, she messed up her hair a little. With her light makeup, she looked like she had just woken up. As soon as she sat down on the sofa, the door opened.
A slightly chubby but handsome middle-aged man walked in from the outside.
"You're here." Xu Qian stood up and walked to the man. She gently helped the latter take off his coat and hung it on the hanger.
Qiu Ming took out a box of chocolates and handed it to Xu Qian. "A gift for you."
Xu Qian was a little disappointed when she saw the chocolates, but the disappointment only flashed in her eyes for a moment. After that, she put on a happy look and said, "How did you know that I like chocolate?"
"Don't girls like sweets? The chocolates in this shop are all handmade. Open it and try it," Qiu Ming said.
So, Xu Qian opened the outer packaging, then opened the chocolate box, and saw a lady's diamond watch inside.
Xu Qian covered her mouth with one hand. "Oh my god, is this a retro Patek Philippe? It'll cost at least a million credits! "
"Even the most expensive watch can't compare to what you like." As Qiu Ming spoke, he picked up the watch from the chocolate box and put it on Xu Qian's wrist.
"This gift is too expensive." Xu Qian was flattered.
"For my future wife? I don't think so." After Qiu Ming put on the watch for Xu Qian, he kissed her again. After that, he went to the sofa, sat down, and loosened his tie.
"What would you like to drink?" Xu Qian asked.
"Oh, plain water will do," Qiu Ming said. After that, he looked around Xu Qian's apartment and asked, "Do you live here?"
Xu Qian didn't ask the housework robot to help. Instead, she personally poured water for Qiu Ming and brought the cup in front of him. "Why? You don't like the place where we poor people live?"
"How could that be? It's very warm here." Qiu Ming took the water and drank it all. "It's just a little small. There's no swimming pool or movie room, and it's missing a nanny room."
"I don't live on the fourth floor." Xu Qian pretended to be angry and pushed Qiu Ming's body.
The latter smiled. "So, when exactly do you plan to accept my proposal and move to the fourth floor to live with me? I've already asked the servants to prepare your room and everything else. My villa needs a hostess."
"You're so anxious for me to move over. Do you need a hostess, or do you need a maid to warm your bed?"
"To be honest, I need both," Qiu Ming said, reaching out and putting his arm around Xu Qian's waist.
"Stop messing around." Xu Qian slapped her boyfriend's hand away.
"I'm not messing around. You're the one who's messing around. I thought we had an agreement." Qiu Ming sat up straight. "You told me that you would announce your marriage on the live broadcast last night and then retire, but I watched your live broadcast last night. You didn't say anything, and there were a few annoying guys calling my future wife 'wife'."
"I …" Xu Qian paused. "I need some time. After all, I have been in this industry for so long. I can't just quit."
"Why not? I've already said that I'll take care of you after you retire." As Qiu Ming spoke, he grabbed a handful of melon seeds and fed the hamster on the table. "Is this your pet? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"
"You're so annoying. Can't you give me some more time? You're not the only one with a career. " Of course, Xu Qian couldn't say that Zhang Heng's words made her hesitate, and she didn't immediately announce her retirement during last night's live broadcast.
"Of course you can, but didn't you say that you still have a lot of things to prepare before the wedding? You need to invite people, the wedding venue, the wedding dress … You said you might not have time to broadcast."
"I … Did I say that?" Xu Qian squeezed out a smile.
"Yeah, I remember it very clearly. Just two days ago. Don't tell me you've forgotten?"
"No, I'll pour you another glass of water." Xu Qian said as she picked up Qiu Ming's empty glass of water, went to the kitchen, placed it under the water dispenser, pressed the hot water button, and folded her arms.
Xu Qian really wished that she hadn't followed Zhang Heng to the first floor yesterday. If that was the case, she might be able to lie happily in Qiu Ming's arms with the new watch Qiu Ming bought for her. She wouldn't be as paranoid as she was now.
"Did something happen?"
Qiu Ming's voice suddenly came from behind, startling Xu Qian. She had to hold the stove behind her to prevent herself from sitting on the ground.
"Are you okay? Is it my imagination? You look a little weird today." Qiu Ming frowned.
"I'm fine. I just didn't expect you to come into the kitchen."
"Oh, it's because I just remembered something. There's an opera performance at the Blue Theater in the afternoon. I've booked two seats. We can go and watch it together. By the way, are you free this afternoon?"
"I'm fine." Xu Qian handed the cup of hot water to Qiu Ming. "We can go to the opera."
"Very well. What are you going to eat at noon? Why don't we go to the French restaurant last time? The foie gras there is not bad," Qiu Ming said. "I also prepared another gift for you."
