Chapter 661

"Creak, creak, creak..."

The old wooden bed emitted the sound of mortise and tenon joints rubbing against each other under heavy weight.

"The soundproofing isn't good; slow down!"

"Hehe, we're just getting started; I've only just shifted into second gear."

"You still want to speed?"

"Speed? I'm afraid if I shift into fourth gear and drive too fast, I'll leak oil and make a mess everywhere, which wouldn't be good."

"Stop bragging. Can your 1.0 engine really have 4.0 horsepower?"

"What's wrong? Looking down on me? I'm an old driver. This car of yours has just finished its break-in period; I'm afraid if I drive too fast, you won't be able to handle it."

"I wasn't afraid during the break-in period; now that it's over, do you think I'm afraid of you?"

"Alright, today I'll let you experience what speed and passion are."

"Ah!" Jian Qiu screamed, followed by lightning speed, howling winds, and rolling white waves.

I don't know how much time passed when the automatic brake was engaged, and the car stopped.

Perhaps because the speed was too fast, Jian Qiu, after being baptized by the gale, had a flushed face and blurred eyes. She hugged Zhou Andong tightly and wouldn't let go. The turbulent waves in her heart took a long time to gradually calm down, and her tense body slowly became soft.

Zhou Andong got up, found a cigarette, lit it, and then walked to the window and pulled open the curtains. Outside, the sunset was already filling the sky.

Jian Qiu walked behind him, hugged his waist, pressed her entire body against his back, and whispered softly.

"Dongzi, let's get married."

"Good!" Zhou Andong was stunned for a moment, then nodded without hesitation, "But, how will you get past your family's Old Buddha?"

Jian Qiu tightened her arms around him: "Let's not tell her first; I'll go home tonight and steal the household registration book."

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "You've got guts, actually daring to act first and report later."

Jian Qiu looked up and bit Zhou Andong on the shoulder: "Bastard, I've given you everything, and you're still making sarcastic remarks."

Zhou Andong bared his teeth: "Do you know where the household registration book is?"

Jian Qiu said: "I know!"

"Alright!" Zhou Andong said: "We'll go get the certificate tomorrow."

Jian Qiu said: "Is your household registration book with you?"

Zhou Andong said: "I didn't know how long it would take to treat Old Zhou, so Mom brought the household registration book. A while ago, when Xiaoqin moved her household registration, it was used."

Jian Qiu smiled: "It's settled; we'll go get the certificate tomorrow."

Zhou Andong said with some worry: "Acting first and reporting later, I'm just afraid of making your family's Old Buddha so angry that something happens to her!"

Jian Qiu rubbed her face against Zhou Andong's back: "Then it depends on whether you, this son-in-law, have the ability to coax the Old Buddha into being happy."

Zhou Andong chuckled: "I'll think of a way."

The two lingered until after five o'clock before returning to the hospital. Yuan Liying had already prepared everything, and seeing them return, she started cooking.

Zhou Andong picked up the phone and dialed the furniture factory; the person answering was Zhou Anwen.

"Big Brother?"

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "I saw your mom and dad today and talked about your studies. How is it? There are only two months left until the college entrance exam; do you have confidence?"

Zhou Anwen said carelessly: "A key university is a bit difficult, but a non-key one is definitely no problem."

Zhou Andong said: "Are you under pressure?"

"Pressure?" Zhou Anwen said with disdain: "I've never known what pressure is."

Zhou Andong laughed loudly. This little girl is talking big now, but when she walks into the exam room, she will perform poorly because of nervousness.

"Wenwen, I called today just for your college entrance exam. Don't take it too seriously. If you do well, everyone will be happy for you.

If you don't do well, it doesn't matter. If you want to repeat, Brother will arrange for you to come to the capital. If you don't want to repeat, come to Brother's company; you can study while working.

You are so smart; even if you don't go to university, you will definitely be able to achieve something. If you don't want to come to Brother's company, work at your second brother's furniture factory."

Zhou Anwen was silent, and then sobbing sounds came through: "Brother, thank you."

Zhou Andong said: "Silly girl, why are you being so polite with Brother?"

Zhou Anwen said: "I want to go to university, like you, to stand out and let my parents live a good life. But I don't have confidence; the closer it gets to the exam, the more panicked I feel.

I keep thinking, what if I don't get in? If I repeat, the family can't afford it at all. If I don't repeat, I definitely won't be reconciled."

Zhou Andong said: "Don't think about those messy things now; put your heart into studying. Sharpening your spear at the last minute will still make it shine. Don't be under pressure. No matter how you do on the exam, Brother will arrange your future path."

"Hmm!" Zhou Anwen hummed, "I'm hanging up if there's nothing else."

"Good!" Zhou Andong hung up the phone.

He made this call to Zhou Anwen so that she wouldn't have any psychological burden and could enter the exam room in a relaxed state.

As long as there is no pressure, with Zhou Anwen's usual grades, it's not 100% certain she will get into university, but the chance is still very high.

"Dinner's ready!" Jian Qiu brought the cooked dishes to the table, then took a tray, put a little of everything for Zhou Xiaoxin, and sent it inside.

"Uncle, dinner's ready."

"Good!" Zhou Xiaoxin took the tray, "You go eat too; don't worry about me."

"Ningning, dinner's ready." Jian Qiu grabbed the running fourth child and hugged her into the chair, "You are a girl, already six years old; you should have the look of a girl, be quiet and gentle, and don't always run and jump around like a little monkey."

Jian Qiu served a bowl of rice for the fourth child and placed it in front of her, "When you go to school later, teachers will also like children who are well-behaved and obedient."

"When I go to school, I will be well-behaved and obedient." The fourth child held her chopsticks and lowered her head to shovel rice into her mouth.

Zhou Andong snorted. In his previous life, teachers almost looked for parents every month, and he, as a brother, couldn't remember how many parents he had apologized to.

After finishing the meal, Jian Qiu gave Zhou Andong a wink.

Zhou Andong nodded, stood up, walked into the inner room, and rummaged around.

Zhou Xiaoxin asked: "What are you looking for?"

Zhou Andong said: "The household registration book!"

Yuan Liying came in: "What are you looking for the household registration book for?"

Zhou Andong said: "The fourth child needs it for school."

Yuan Liying said: "It's in that black bag."

Zhou Andong opened a black bag and found the household registration book inside.

Jian Qiu said: "Uncle, Auntie, we're leaving."

"Go on!" Zhou Xiaoxin said: "You guys are busy all day, it's tiring enough; go back and rest early."

Zhou Andong and Jian Qiu left the hospital, then took a taxi back to Jian Qiu's home, rummaged through boxes and cabinets again, and finally found the household registration book.

"Found it!" Jian Qiu ran out of the room excitedly, hugged Zhou Andong's neck, jumped up hard, wrapped her legs tightly around Zhou Andong's waist, and kissed Zhou Andong on the mouth.
