Chapter 354 Close business

Chapter 354. Close business

When dreaming at night, Zhou Qing Bai was in cloud nine as he held his precious baby girl.

But he was destined to be disappointed.

Lin Qing He, who was asleep, woke up suddenly in the middle of the night.

That familiar feeling!

But she didn’t need to get out of bed. She was prepared!

Zhou Qing Bai was awakened by her movement. He hurriedly said: "What’s wrong? Feeling unwell?"

Lin Qing He took in how nervous this man appeared. Thinking of how happy he was in these two days, Lin Qing He pursed her lips. She couldn’t bear to tell him and decided to let him sleep well.

"It’s nothing. Just thirsty." Lin Qing He replied.

Zhou Qing Bai got up, went out, and brought in a glass of warm water. Lin Qing He drank it, then lay down and continued to sleep.

Zhou Qing Bai was nervous. Seeing that she was asleep with a smile on her face, he was sure that there was nothing wrong, So he pulled the quilt in place and drowsed off.

Early the next morning, Zhou Qing Bai had already gone to the dumpling shop. Zhou Gui Lai brought over a delicious breakfast.

"Mom, are you feeling unwell anywhere?" Zhou Gui Lai asked.

Lin Qing He’s feeling was in a knot.

This time, her period really tormented people.

But fortunately, their sons didn’t know. Otherwise, this mix-up would really lose their face.

"Nowhere." Lin Qing He replied: "Have you ever eaten?"

"I have." Zhou Gui Lai nodded. He was relieved after making sure his mother’s complexion was indeed okay. Then he was confused. Why did his father treat his mother like ceramics these past two days?

Lin Qing He asked while eating, "How is your father’s mood today?"

"My dad is in a good mood today. Like he picked up some treasure." Zhou Gui Lai answered and then looked at his mother: "Mom, tell me the truth. From what I see, my dad is in a high spirit these past few days. Simply like he can fly. I have never seen him so happy before."

Lin Qing He sighed.

What can she say?

After finishing, she got Third to clean up the dishes and go to the dumpling shop. She went to class.

Along the way, she began to think, what can she do to make her Qing bai happy?

In the past two days, she thought she was pregnant. There was no shortage of her acting up. One time she was like this, another she was like that. She showed him attitude.

But he didn’t express any complaint at all.

Not only did he have no complaints, but on the contrary, he coaxed her and treated her as an ancestor.

At this moment, she was feeling guilty. Especially guilty.

But she couldn’t figure it out. What was going on? It was fine before, but this time it was delayed for four days. On top of that, he was so diligent before and she had those symptoms. She naturally thought like that.

After all, she hadn’t truly been pregnant or given birth despite having three grown sons. So what experience could she have?

It was a bit like saying that it was windy when it was rain.

After the morning lectures, she didn’t dare to face her Qing Bai. She headed straight to the apartment building. Zhou Qing Bai left the shop to his second son to manage and he returned with a rib and lotus congee.

Lin Qing He felt even more guilty when she saw her Qing Bai like this. Zhou Qing Bai said, "What’s wrong? Quickly eat. It’ll get cold in a bit."

"Qing Bai." Lin Qing He stared at him.

Zhou Qing Bai looked back at her and uttered, "Huh?"

Lin Qing He gave him a glance before bowing her head to eat. After eating, Zhou Qing Bai cleaned up the dishes and said, "Do you still have classes in the afternoon?"

"There are two classes." Lin Qing He said.

"Then I will pick you up."

"No need. I head over there after class." Lin Qinghe shook her head.

Zhou Qing Bai responded: "Then you go rest first."

Lin Qing He was indeed a little tired when she arrived here. She really got tired easily. So she went to nap first.

But there was no way to conceal such things.

And Lin Qing He didn’t intend to hide it. So in the evening, when the couple went into the room after dinner, Lin Qing He confessed after closing the door.

"Qing Bai, that...that came." When Lin Qing He said this, she lowered his head like a kindergarten kid who had made a mistake. Completely afraid to look at her Qing Bai.

Zhou Qing Bai paused: "What came?"

"That." Lin Qing He pursed her lips. Looking at him, she stated: "I’m not pregnant. It came last night."

Zhou Qing Bai was completely stunned. Lin Qing He quickly explained, "Qing Bai, I didn’t do it on purpose. You know that I’m inexperienced, so with my previous symptoms... I misunderstood. Don’t be mad." Toward the end, she can barely hear her quiet voice.

She got a guilty conscience. Lin Qing He had never been so guilty in her life.

Zhou Qing Bai saw his wife like this and responded, "Not pregnant, then not pregnant."

Lin Qing He peeked at him. She hurriedly went out and brewed him a cup of honey water. Zhou Qing Bai glanced at his wife. He took it and drank it.

"Wife, I’m not sad." Zhou Qing Bai said calmly.

He didn’t sleep all night. The next day, he didn’t start his business the next day. He wrote a piece of paper and stuck it on the door: "Closed for a day."

"My dad wants to rest?" Zhou Xuan and Zhou Gui Lai were both taken aback.

Not only them but also Hu Zi and Zhou Er Ni.

"Go about your business." Lin Qing He waved her hand.

She knew that this big misunderstanding was made too much damage to her Qing Bai. He longed for it. He hadn’t wished it for many years was unable to get it.

He finally had hope but didn’t expect it to be an empty basket. How can he not be disappointed and lost?

The news that Zhou Qing Bai had stopped business for one day was informed to Father Zhou and Mother Zhou by Xu Sheng Mei.

"Your uncle didn’t open the door all day?" Mother Zhou asked in surprise.

"En. I don’t know what happened. My uncle was very happy two days ago. I could see him smiling. I don’t know what’s going on today. He stayed at the apartment building all day." Xu Sheng Mei answered.

"Did he quarrel with your aunt?" Mother Zhou wondered.

"What quarrel? Don’t blindly get involved." Father Zhou snapped at her.

"I’m not. But to not even open the shop. How can this do?" Mother Zhou said.

Su Da Lin and Zhou Xiao Mei came back from outside. It was only 6 o’clock at this time. They closed early today.

"Sheng Mei, you got off work so early?" Zhou Xiao Mei asked.

"En. It’s snowing heavily today, so the store closed early." Xu Sheng Mei nodded.

"Xiao Mei, have you seen your fourth sister-in-law?" Mother Zhou hurriedly asked.

"No. What happened to Fourth Sister-in-law?" Zhou Xiao Mei asked after removing her scarf.

"Your fourth sister-in-law and your fourth brother seem to be quarreling. Today, your fourth brother didn’t open the shop for a day." Mother Zhou said.

Zhou Xiao Mei was shocked and turned to Xu Sheng Mei: "Your uncle didn’t open the shop today?"

"En." Xu Sheng Mei nodded.

"It’s still early now. Go and have a look." Mother Zhou said.

"Okay. But Mother, don’t worry. It’s impossible for my fourth brother and my fourth sister-in-law to quarrel." Zhou Xiao Mei responded and put her scarf on again.

Su Da Lin followed. The couple came over to the apartment building.
