The doorbell rang, and Li Zhao stood up and said, “It must be Lao San coming, I’ll go open the door.”
Before long, Li Zhao and Xiao Qi came in from outside.
Chu Molin stood up and spread his arms, and Li Zhao and Xiao Qi came over for a group hug before letting go.
Handing over two jars of peach blossom wine per person, he said, “Good stuff, try it.”
Li Zhao opened the jar, and the fragrance of peach blossoms mixed with the strong aroma of wine filled the air.
Li Zhao poured a little into a cup, and the whole living room was filled with the aroma. Taking a sniff, he felt refreshed. He took a small sip, and his body felt warm, indeed, it was something very good.
“Lao Da, where did you get such good wine? It’s even a hundred-year-old fine wine.” Li Zhao poured a little for Xiao Qi too after he finished his drink.
Xiao Qi took a sip and looked at Chu Molin with bright eyes.
“Don’t look at me like that. It was just something I happened to come across, and I don’t have much left.
Sharing with you guys is purely based on our friendship from growing up together.
I hope you guys can keep this a secret if you have it. If there’s any left in the future, I’ll reserve it for you. If not, this is all I have. You know what I mean.” It’s not that Chu Molin is stingy, but anything threatening to Qin Xue must be nipped in the bud.
“Lao Da, you’re too kind. By the way, where’s your wife? Didn’t you say you brought her along? And where’s An’an? Usually, she’d run straight into my arms the moment she saw us?” Xiao Qi looked around and didn’t see his supposed sister-in-law or An Hao.
“Uh, they were just here. Maybe they went upstairs?” Li Zhao glanced around and didn’t see them. He hadn’t heard that they were going out, so they must be upstairs.
“Lao Da, you really got married?” Xiao Qi still found it hard to believe.
This guy had a serious cleanliness obsession which didn’t just apply to dirtiness but also women.
From childhood to adulthood, he’d never seen any women get close to him, except for his sister Chu Xiaoqiao. Isn’t it shocking that he suddenly got married?
“Mm, I did,” Chu Molin replied indifferently, his face expressionless.
“What kind of woman is she to actually get close to you?”
Xiao Qi thought back to when An Hao once said that she would marry Lao Da; he nearly scared her to death, looking murderous.
Could you imagine a ten-year-old child with a constant cold and murderous expression? It would be strange not to scare people.
“You’ll find out soon enough. As it turns out, only a gentle woman like her can tame a lone wolf like Lao Da.’
Li Zhao thought about how Qin Xue was always gentle and smiling, while Lao
Da was the lone wolf.
“Someone I know? Could it be Qin Xue?” Xiao Qi thought about who Li Zhao knew and who he knew too.
Seemingly the only person who could gain An Hao’s approval that fast was Qin
Xue.
Despite An Hao looking simple, she has a keen sense of people. Most people couldn’t enter her heart.
As for Xiao Qi, there were two reasons he remembered Qin Xue: her design drawing and An Hao’s approval.
“Lao San, you’re really amazing, guessed it in one.” Li Zhao gave Xiao Qi a thumbs up, having been startled at the time.
Chu Molin lazily leaned on the sofa, watching them guess.
At this moment, Chu Molin exuded a cold, noble aura, like that of a well-bred aristocrat.
When Qin Xue and An Hao came downstairs, they saw Chu Molin’s noble and charming expression.
‘Qiqi, you’re here.” An Hao saw Xiao Qi and really wanted to throw herself at him.
But just now, Qin Xue told her she couldn’t throw herself into his arms.
So she walked over to Li Zhao and greeted Xiao Qi, surprising not only him but also Li Zhao.
Li Zhao was even more shocked. An Hao usually didn’t listen to him no matter how many times he told her not to throw herself at Xiao Qi.
He eventually gave up disuading her, as Xiao Qi was her older cousin and his friend, so jealousy could be tolerated.
But today, An Hao actually didn’t throw herself at Xiao Qi, and Li Zhao’s mood instantly bubbled with joy..
