Early in the morning, Zhao Yixin ran to the door of the room and asked Yang Qi to be her boyfriend. Then after Zhao Yixin's explanation, he finally understood what was going on.
It turned out that in two days, it would be Zhao Yixin's grandmother's 80th birthday. At this age, the elderly have many children and grandchildren. It is unknown whether she can celebrate her 90th birthday after this one. So this time, no matter where the descendants are, they will return to their hometown to celebrate the elderly's birthday.
As the granddaughter, Zhao Yixin was no exception. In fact, she had already asked for leave these two days and was preparing to go back. However, Zhao Yixin was not young anymore, even a few years older than Yang Qi. It was okay for men to get married in their thirties or forties, but it was not easy for women to get married once they were over thirty.
These two days, Zhao Yixin's family has been very anxious and has been arranging a partner for her. In the past two years, Zhao Yixin had to refuse on the grounds that she was still young, but in the past two years, seeing that she could not refuse, she found an excuse and said that she already had a boyfriend.
It's just that this boyfriend never went back during the holidays. Although the elders in the family didn't say anything, it's impossible not to have doubts. This time, on her grandmother's birthday, the elders in the family, including Zhao Yixin's grandmother, asked her to bring her boyfriend back.
Zhao Yixin, who didn't have a boyfriend, had to say that her boyfriend had something to do and couldn't go back. But for the old man's birthday, all the children and grandchildren who were far away would go back, so how could Zhao Yixin's boyfriend be an exception
The elderly people in the family immediately suspected that Zhao Yixin did not have a boyfriend, and even told her directly that the family had helped find a partner and asked her to go back for a blind date during her birthday party.
How could Zhao Yixin agree to all this when she learned about it? She repeatedly emphasized that she had a boyfriend and that she would go back with him this time!
The words were said, but the problem was that Zhao Yixin didn't have a boyfriend at all. She had no choice but to find someone to pretend to be her boyfriend. There were a few familiar male colleagues in the company, but those crew members were young and handsome and already had girlfriends. Moreover, because she was too familiar with them, she didn't like the style of those male colleagues. In desperation, she had to find Yang Qi and let him pretend to be her boyfriend.
Although she didn't have much contact with Yang Qi, she was still very clear about Yang Qi's character. What's more, Yang Qi was young and promising. He didn't even need to pretend. He was a satisfactory boyfriend.
"Yang Qi, you won't refuse to help me, will you?" Zhao Yixin looked at Yang Qi with a pleading look.
The corner of Yang Qi's mouth twitched. Although he had not experienced being forced into marriage, he could understand Zhao Yixin. In Yang Qi's hometown, among his peers, he was the only one who had not yet married. His other elementary school classmates, middle school classmates, and childhood playmates had already married. Some of them even had sons who were already old enough to help with household chores.
"Okay, I can help you, just this once, and it won't happen again." Yang Qi said helplessly.
"Thank you, you are so kind." Zhao Yixin's face lit up when she heard that and she said gratefully.
If Yang Qi doesn't agree, she really doesn't know what to do. She may have to rent a boyfriend to bring home.
"Where is your hometown?" Yang Qi couldn't help but ask.
Although he had known Zhao Yixin for quite some time, he did not know about her family situation. In fact, even college classmates rarely talked about family matters, let alone roommates. However, some elementary school and middle school classmates even stayed overnight at other people's homes when they were young.
"Han'an County." Zhao Yixin said with a smile.
Hanan County
Hearing this, Yang Qi was stunned. To be honest, among his university classmates, there was a boy from Qingya City, and Han'an County was a county under Qingya City.
"I understand. When the time comes to set off, just call me." Yang Qi nodded.
"By the way, do you have time later?" Zhao Yixin suddenly asked.
"how?"
"I plan to buy some gifts later, but the weather is so hot today..." Zhao Yixin said weakly.
"Okay, I got it. I'll drive you there later." Yang Qi rolled his eyes and said speechlessly.
"Thank you, I'll go change."
Zhao Yixin showed joy on her face and quickly rushed up to the second floor.
Looking at Zhao Yixin leaving, Yang Qi shook his head slightly and waited in the living room for a while. Then Zhao Yixin changed into a sky blue dress and came down.
"Huh~" Looking at Zhao Yixin who had become much quieter, Yang Qi's face showed a hint of surprise. You know, Zhao Yixin is usually carefree, but now she has become more ladylike.
Being stared at by Yang Qi, Zhao Yixin blushed and snorted, "What are you looking at? Have you never seen a beautiful woman?"
"Beauty?" Yang Qi laughed immediately, "If I hadn't seen you eating, you would have been considered a beauty."
"I eat your food because I think highly of you. You'll treat me for breakfast later." Zhao Yixin snorted.
Yang Qi shrugged, and the two got in the car and went to the breakfast shop behind the school. After having some breakfast, they drove to a large shopping mall in Qingzhou city.
Yang Qi had no interest in shopping in the mall, but he walked around with Zhao Yixin. In order to choose a gift for the old man, Zhao Yixin had obviously made sufficient preparations. She chose a golden longevity peach. Although it was not big, it cost several thousand yuan. She also bought a few sets of clothes, even some for children.
"You bought so many things?" Yang Qi looked at the bags in his hands, and the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely. Zhao Yixin seemed to be treating him as a coolie.
"There are a lot of people in my family." Zhao Yixin smiled bitterly and continued, "There are three siblings in my family. My brother is married and has children. I also have a younger brother who is in high school."
Yang Qi was stunned for a moment, then nodded. To be honest, they were born in the late 1980s or 1990s. Although the policy of having only one child was advocated at that time, in reality, most families had two or three children.
Yang Qi has an older sister who has also started a family. She is now working in Guangdong Province and has not been back home for several years. Normally, she only calls him once every two or three months.
"Just buy another bracelet and you'll be almost there." Zhao Yixin looked at the things in Yang Qi's hand, calculated them, and then spoke.
"Buy more?" Yang Qi's mouth twitched fiercely. Zhao Yixin spent more than ten thousand to buy these things. Although Zhao Yixin was a flight attendant, her monthly salary was only more than ten thousand. After deducting her usual expenses, it would be good if she could save ** thousand.
Just a few of them disappeared, which cost her more than a month's salary. If she still needs to buy more, I'm afraid two months' salary will not be enough.
"You can't go to celebrate my grandmother's birthday empty-handed, right?" Zhao Yixin glanced at Yang Qi and said calmly.
Hearing this, Yang Qi was stunned. It turned out that Zhao Yixin was planning to buy him a gift.
"No need, have you forgotten what I do? I can just give you a gift myself when the time comes." Yang Qi said with a smile. (To be continued)
