Chapter 1447: Discussing Marriage (2)

Mrs. Song’s expression changed several times, but she could only reluctantly follow their words.

"You’re right, we won’t disturb you then."

The Song family stood up to leave, and Song Xinyue unwillingly glanced in Zhou Qi’s direction, just in time to see Zhou Qi standing next to Xiao Rou, gently tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.

The girl was gentle and graceful, a subtle smile on her lips, while Zhou Qi, a smile playing at his lips, his eyes deep yet exuding a tenderness that made people envious and jealous at a single glance.

With just a look, a small gesture, Song Xinyue felt like she’d been subjected to eighteen different tortures.

She was unwilling to accept it, but could only grittingly bite her teeth. She followed her parents with a purpose, but today, apart from the initial greeting, she hadn’t had a chance to say even half a word to Zhou Qi.

Whenever that girl was around, Zhou Qi’s gaze lingered on her; when she wasn’t there, Zhou Qi had a nonchalant demeanor that was off-putting.

Song Xinyue bit her lip and followed her parents out.

As soon as they left, Zhou Chengze and Qi Cheng’s gaze naturally fell on Xiao Rou and Zhou Qi.

Zhou Chengze naturally wouldn’t ask directly, but Qi Cheng was already speaking: "Qi, aren’t you going to introduce her?"

Who Xiao Rou was, they were certainly familiar with, and now saying this, who wouldn’t catch on to the meaning?

Xiao Rou’s face instantly turned red, but Zhou Qi brazenly put his arm around her shoulders: "Alright, let me introduce, Xiao Rou, my girlfriend."

Zhou Qi spoke seriously, though with a smile on his face.

However, this serious atmosphere didn’t last long; as Zhou Chengchen laughed aloud, everyone else joined in.

"Rourou, your taste isn’t great, how’d you end up liking this guy?"

Qi Cheng spoke, as Xiao Rou’s blush deepened, lines of frustration appearing, wondering... Is she really her mother’s daughter?

No one mentioned the Song family who had just left; apart from Zhou Qi and Xiao Rou, everyone seemed to have switched to "teasing Zhou Qi" mode.

Even Xi Siyan chimed in, following Zhou Chengchen’s lead.

"Hey, hey, take it easy! If my woman decides to leave me because of all this, watch out, I’ll threaten you all by weeping and wailing and throwing a tantrum."

Everyone laughed, and Xiao Rou’s face reddened further. Who was his "woman" anyway?

But when the topic turned to "wife", the conversation suddenly shifted to Zhou Chengchen and Xi Siyan’s wedding plans.

"How about the two couples get married at the same time then, would Rourou be willing?"

Xiao Rou was still blushing furiously, and at those words, she froze on the spot.

How did... how did it suddenly come to marriage?

She and Zhou Qi hadn’t been dating long.

Zhou Chengchen egged it on: "That’s a great idea, it’ll be a huge celebration."

She and Xiao Rou were good friends, Xi Siyan and Zhou Qi were close friends, and she and Zhou Qi were siblings, so if they married together, it would be marvelous.

But before Xiao Rou could respond, Zhou Qi already spoke: "No way!"

Several pairs of eyes turned to him.

"Why not? It’d be so lively."

Zhou Chengchen protested, and Zhou Qi gave her a sidelong glance: "Don’t think I don’t know your wedding with Si Yan is already being planned, getting married after you graduate, that’s only a few months away! Your elder brother here has just started dating, okay? Let me date a little longer first."

Zhou Chengchen: "..."

Zhou Qi’s words, if nitpicked, could come off as him wanting to fool around without committing to marriage.

But Xiao Rou didn’t take it that way; she turned to glance at Zhou Qi, but said nothing.
