Chapter 1349: Be My Sister-in-Law

Zhou Chengchen glanced at Zhou Qi before linking arms with Xiao Rou and walking out together.

In the restroom, the two girls freshened up and came out to stand in front of the sink. Xiao Rou was the first to come out, so naturally she had already tidied up and stood to one side. Zhou Chengchen washed her hands, and Xiao Rou handed her a tissue to dry her hands.

As Zhou Chengchen wiped her hands, she laughed, "Little Rou’er, you’re so considerate. Why don’t you become my sister-in-law?"

Still, when it comes to matchmaking and the like, Zhou Chengchen isn’t interested, but making this kind of playful probe is fine.

The main reason being that she can see how anxious her brother is.

Back in the day, she was so bold when she chased after Xi Siyan. And her brother? His hesitation is obvious, even though he’s clearly nice to her, he’s still acting all undercover, making her anxious just watching him.

Xiao Rou could easily hear the teasing in Zhou Chengchen’s tone, but she didn’t blush or act bashful. She merely nudged Zhou Chengchen, "What are you thinking?"

"I’m serious, why not consider it?"

"Consider what? Let’s go back."

Xiao Rou gently defused Zhou Chengchen’s joke.

Zhou Chengchen sighed inwardly. She understands her friend well, and Xiao Rou clearly isn’t interested in Zhou Qi. She suddenly feels a sense of her brother facing a long and arduous road ahead.

Despite being the type of person who gets easily embarrassed, Xiao Rou showed no signs of shyness now, which can only mean that she truly has nothing to hide in her heart.

Zhou Chengchen stopped joking around. She’d done everything she could to help, but whether Zhou Qi can win her over or not was now up to him.

The two returned to the private room, and another round of lively chatter ensued before everyone parted ways. As Zhou Chengchen was leaving the next day, and Zhou Qi didn’t return to his team, he planned to accompany her back to the Zhou Family.

With Xi Siyan, it was agreed that Zhou Chengchen would return to the Zhou Family tonight, since she still had another identity—a daughter.

Constantly sticking to him, she had to consider her parents as well.

Yet, as their parting time approached, Zhou Chengchen felt reluctant, knowing it wouldn’t be a long separation, but still couldn’t help feeling attached.

She held onto Xi Siyan’s hand, dragging her feet.

Zhou Qi couldn’t stand watching this, and slapped Xi Siyan’s shoulder, "Alright, alright, stop dragging this out, let’s go back together. Si Yan, I bet you won’t have any work tomorrow, let’s go, let’s go."

Zhou Qi summoned Xi Siyan to join them, and Xi Siyan didn’t refuse. Zhou Chengchen’s eyes lit up as she pulled Xiao Rou’s hand, "Little Rou’er, you quit your job anyway, nothing’s going on tomorrow, right? Come back with me today and send me to the airport tomorrow, okay?"

"Huh?"

Xiao Rou was momentarily stunned, a bit caught off guard, but quickly nodded, "Sure, I’ll call my family."

Finally, all four went back to the Zhou Family together. Xi Siyan’s car was driven back by Liu Xiaoyu, while An Rui took a taxi back to the team. Without hesitating, Zhou Chengchen pulled Xi Siyan into the backseat.

"Little Rou’er, sit up front, don’t interrupt our little world."

Xiao Rou felt speechless; it’s just front and rear seats, what’s this little world all about?

Zhou Qi gave a thoughtful look at Zhou Chengchen, feeling a bit helpless, thinking Xiao Rou must be so naive. Otherwise, anyone could easily tell what she was trying to do with such blatant intentions.

"Get in the car."

Zhou Qi opened the passenger door for Xiao Rou, gentlemanly and polite.
