Chapter 1023: Chapter 1024: The Lonely Village Girl 68
Before getting off work, Xiao Qiao came to pick up Zhang Yu with quite a few things in tow.
Colleagues saw him with bags and then looked at Zhang Yu. One person quickly spoke, "Xiao Qiao, don’t tell me you and Zhang Yu are together."
Don’t be fooled by people saying Zhang Yu is fierce or whatever. It’s undeniable that Zhang Yu is good-looking, has great qualities, and many people are quite satisfied with her.
No one has made a move because she is still young, and given that her father just passed away a few months ago, people really don’t feel it’s appropriate.
But unexpectedly, the newly-arrived Xiao Qiao managed to snag her, and many are quite regretful.
Xiao Qiao responded with a sound, shocking all the observing colleagues.
"Xiao Qiao, how did you pursue her?" Clearly, yesterday they were still not considered familiar people, so how did within just a day, they become close?
Colleagues were quite puzzled, and the security captain was even more confused. Yesterday, he had asked Xiao Qiao to send Zhang Yu home, and the kid seemed unwilling.
But now the attitude has changed, what’s going on? The security captain suspiciously looked at Xiao Qiao.
The young man’s business skills are excellent, undeniably, but he’s not a smooth talker. So how did he win Zhang Yu right under everyone’s noses?
Uh, this topic is a bit difficult to answer, Zhang Yu worriedly looked at Xiao Qiao, thinking seriously, she was the one who pursued Xiao Qiao.
"When my grandmother lived here, I had a good relationship with her, plus our situations are similar."
"Zhang Yu is also a good person, so I pursued her," Xiao Qiao spoke sincerely to the security captain standing beside him.
"Thank you, captain, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have had the opportunity."
The security captain didn’t expect it, just wanted to know how these two young people got together, but it turned out he was involved.
For a moment, the security captain was dumbfounded, then rubbed his hands in excitement after a while, "Xiao Qiao, Zhang Yu, since I’m considered your matchmaker, shouldn’t there be a thank-you gift?"
Though it seemed like a joke, but what does it matter? They proclaimed him as the matchmaker in front of everyone, so he’d accept it.
"Yes." Xiao Qiao was prepared and took out two packs of cigarettes from his pocket, "Thank you, captain."
The security captain had hoped for a cigarette or maybe a cigarette voucher, which would be a great gift.
Unexpectedly, the gift was so substantial, with two packs of cigarettes.
The security captain felt embarrassed, "That’s a bit too much."
"Not at all, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have succeeded in pursuing Zhang Yu." Xiao Qiao earnestly expressed.
The security captain thought, "Alright, I won’t be polite then." This kid had a lot of cigarette coupons at hand, and he didn’t smoke.
The captain had decided, he’d ask his wife to make him a set of clothes since he had some cloth coupons.
The instructor came out after work and saw everyone gathered around, feeling tense, wondering if something had happened.
"What’s going on?" Walking over, he noticed everyone was relaxed, and the instructor breathed a sigh of relief, realizing nothing had happened.
Everyone saw the instructor come out, "Instructor, Xiao Qiao and Zhang Yu are together."
The instructor was stunned for a moment, "Did I hear that correctly?"
When Xiao Qiao first arrived, he considered introducing Zhang Yu to him, but quickly changed his mind.
Not that the girl was bad, but because the girl hoped the other party could marry into her family.
Some might agree to marry into the Zhang Family for its advantages, but this was absolutely not suitable for Xiao Qiao, so he didn’t mention it.
Unexpectedly, the young ones eventually got together, showing they had fate.
Just wondering who in the middle compromised, couldn’t be Xiao Qiao, the instructor thought, finding the possibility low.
Did Zhang Yu compromise? This possibility was higher, Xiao Qiao’s good conditions would be a regret if missed.
Seeing the happy couple, the instructor decided to ask them later, not wanting to spoil the mood now.
"Aren’t you going home to eat?"
"Come on, if we don’t go, the old lady will worry." Everyone knew Li Cui really spoiled Zhang Yu.
People understood, given the old lady’s age, and Zhang Yu being her only relative, pampering her was only natural.
Xiao Qiao replied, "Yes, we’re heading out now."
Everyone watched them leave, someone sighed, "Really nice, actually if Zhang Yu didn’t require marrying into the family, I have a cousin."
"Right, my uncle’s cousin would be suitable for Zhang Yu too."
Everyone chimed in, saying they also had suitable candidates, but since Zhang Yu required the other party to marry into her family, they could only abandon the idea.
People didn’t quite understand why Xiao Qiao agreed without discussing it with his family, speculating that maybe Xiao Qiao had many siblings, and one son marrying into the family was fine.
The instructor pulled the head of the office who had just come out to the side and briefly explained the recent events.
At first, hearing Xiao Qiao got a girlfriend and was going to her place today, he was really happy, "Why didn’t I come out earlier, otherwise I could have given some pointers."
As a seasoned person, he knew a bit about what gifts to bring the first time visiting.
"He’s dating Zhang Yu and is going to Zhang Yu’s family today." Seeing the excited buddy, the instructor knew his buddy hadn’t realized.
What? Xiao Qiao and Zhang Yu are together? The head of the office was stunned, looking foolishly at his teammate, "I, I didn’t hear that wrong, did I?"
"I remember Zhang Yu required marrying into the family?"
He had asked Zhang Yu before and confirmed this was the requirement; did she change her mind?
The instructor nodded, "Yes, her family has this requirement."
"Xiao Qiao’s family situation is such that he couldn’t marry into a family." The instructor’s face dropped, finding it really tricky.
The head of the office watched his buddy worry, "Did you ask Xiao Qiao?"
The instructor shook his head, "I didn’t ask, there were so many people how could I?"
"That’s true." The head of the office agreed. "Take a moment to ask him tomorrow. When he didn’t have a girlfriend, we worried; now he has one, we’re still worried."
"When my kids found partners, I didn’t feel this pressured."
The head of the office agreed with these words, "Yes, but it’s good they are together, at least we know both of them well."
Zhang Yu was born in the Capital Quadrangle Courtyard and has always been here, never leaving. Her father died protecting national assets, killed by bad people, a martyr’s descendant.
More importantly, Zhang Yu is not the kind of girl who constantly needs someone around, she can handle things when Xiao Qiao is not home.
