Chapter 1689: Traveling Miles to Pound on the Door

Qin Yize remained silent.

He didn’t call her "Auntie" nor did he call him "Uncle".

Zhou Xia, however, became interested and blocked Qin Yize’s way, "Little brat, call me Auntie quickly, or I’ll tell my grandfather."

Qin Yize scoffed a bit.

Look at this, wanting him to call her Auntie, and always ready to tattle, treating him like a child.

But Qin Yize remained calm, gestured to the courtyard where he and Qiaoqiao lived, and said slowly, "If you have nothing else, don’t go to Qiaoqiao."

Zhou Xia froze for a moment, then asked unhappily, "Why?"

"When I came out just now, Qiaoqiao was yawning, seemed like she was about to sleep." Qin Yize explained unhurriedly.

Zhou Xia checked the time, oh dear, it really is nap time.

Wait, why would she play the piano if it’s nap time?

Zhou Xia pondered and then asked.

Qin Yize smiled lightly, "It’s prenatal education before naps, it’s like this every day."

Zhou Xia hesitated a bit, Qiaoqiao is pregnant now, things are different from before, if anything goes wrong, she’ll get scolded to death by her mom.

Qin Yize suddenly spoke again, leisurely, "If Qiaoqiao naps, it will be half an hour later, our nap times are quite regular."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xia realized she had half an hour and suddenly didn’t care about anything else, seeming to forget about forcing Qin Yize to call her Auntie, and ran towards the courtyard.

Because she had a bad premonition in her heart, not knowing if it would come true.

Seeing Zhou Xia’s figure disappear, Qin Yize continued walking unhurriedly towards Great Grandfather’s courtyard, he was about the same age as this pair of convenient aunt and uncle, had not spent much time with them, Xiao Yu and the others were okay, given their young age, but he just couldn’t bring himself to say it.

Actually, this is not good, always need to find a way to overcome it.

For Great Grandfather’s sake, he had to acknowledge this generation.

But, these things were not the most important at the moment, what he was thinking was, the matter Zhou Xia and Qiaoqiao needed to discuss, could it be about Danny?

He could ignore other things, but if it affected Qiaoqiao, he wouldn’t care who it was.

With this thought, he quickened his pace.

The weather was gloomy, there might be a heavy snow tonight, tomorrow everyone was going to Qiaoze Ranch, the journey had slowed a bit, so he needed to plan the time well.

Meanwhile, in Gu Qiaoqiao’s courtyard, Zhou Xia was visiting for the first time, and curiously wandered around inside and outside, Zhou Xia wasn’t in a hurry, Gu Qiaoqiao was even less hurried, accompanying Zhou Xia on a tour of their living room and study.

As for the bedroom upstairs, forget it, that’s her and Qin Yize’s private place.

Yet Zhou Xia didn’t go upstairs, instead, she pulled Gu Qiaoqiao to sit on the sofa, Zhou Xia’s speech was always direct, no beating around the bush, "Qiaoqiao, do you have any way to completely break off contact between Danny and me? Of course, without affecting your health, but don’t tell anyone about this beforehand."

She knew it was related to Danny, both she and Qin Yize guessed correctly.

Gu Qiaoqiao asked puzzled, "Didn’t you already break off completely long ago?"

Zhou Xia didn’t immediately reply, rather she frowned in frustration, her eyes darting around as if countless thoughts were rising in her mind, after a while she said softly, "Logically, yes we broke off completely, I was ready to start a new life, I didn’t plan to stay single, I want to date, I want to get married..."

Gu Qiaoqiao nodded in agreement, "That’s right, we can’t hang ourselves on one crooked tree."

"Exactly, so I accepted my college classmate’s pursuit..."

"That’s great, after sorting out this relationship, starting your life anew, the future is bright." Gu Qiaoqiao encouraged her.

"That’s the idea, my college classmate is also of Chinese descent, has liked me for years, our families are close, familiar with each other, so even my parents agree, naturally, they would accept us dating..."

At this point, Zhou Xia paused.

"...And then?"

Gu Qiaoqiao knew things wouldn’t be that smooth.

Zhou Xia said at this point, with a mix of resentment and embarrassment, gripping her hands on her lap, chest heaving, glanced at Gu Qiaoqiao, then thought of her current state, feeling some words seemed possible to say, but her face still blushing, looking at Qiaoqiao’s bright eyes, felt it hard to utter, "...Qiaoqiao, we, we..."

Gu Qiaoqiao blinked in surprise, might it be what she’s thinking?

"Could it be he saw you guys getting intimate?" Gu Qiaoqiao asked with a hint of exploration.

But she suddenly thought otherwise, wasn’t Danny punished to somewhere far away?

Zhou Xia was startled, then her face flushed more, angrily said, "You’re right, that’s what happened."

"Didn’t he leave that place already?"

"Exactly, I thought I’d never contact him again in this life, but who would’ve thought he’d journey far and wide just to pound on the door while I was intimate with my ex-boyfriend..."

No way, how explosive is this?

At this point, Gu Qiaoqiao keenly grasped three words, ex-boyfriend?

"Did you two break up then?"

Gu Qiaoqiao asked cautiously, worried about upsetting Zhou Xia, no matter how you look at it, this is heartbreak.

"How could we not breakup?" Zhou Xia gritted her teeth and continued her grievances, "Qiaoqiao, he pounded on the door, then after opening, he fell to the ground clutching his chest like a ghost, mouth bloody, claiming he didn’t want to live anymore, that life was meaningless, how could any guy continue with me after seeing such a scene?"

Gu Qiaoqiao looked at Zhou Xia in disbelief, really never expected the Black Angels to have such a trait, this felt like something out of martial arts novels, like being afflicted by love venom.

Gu Qiaoqiao looked at Zhou Xia’s heart, suddenly reached out her hand and pressed it on her chest...

This unexpected move startled Zhou Xia, who was lost in her memories, what’s with the touching there now?

Zhou Xia widened her eyes, "Qiaoqiao, what are you doing?"

Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t hide, honestly stated, "I wanted to check if you had any little bugs or anything inside..."

Zhou Xia was caught off guard, clutched Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand, her life was chaotic enough, she didn’t want any more glitches, she felt so unfortunate that something other people wouldn’t encounter even in a thousand years happened to her.

Hearing Gu Qiaoqiao’s words, her face changed, grabbed Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand, then turned it over and pressed it against her chest, oh God, how frightening, could there really be a little bug here?
