Dai Zihan released Xiao Li and said, "I know it must have been hard for you back then.
Little Li Li, you got married because of Uncle, but can marrying someone you don't love bring happiness?"
Xiao Li smiled at this, "Who says I got married because of my dad.
Yes, my dad arranged the marriage initially. When I first found out, I considered jumping out of a window to escape the marriage, but in the end, I didn't escape.
Because I feel like I'm starting to like him a little."
Feng Qing exclaimed, "Jump out of a window to escape marriage... That's just so you!
This uncle must be extraordinary to make you stay. When will you arrange for him to meet us, the family...
Honestly, you got married, and I didn't even get to be a bridesmaid."
Dai Zihan poked Feng Qing in the head with her finger, "What are you calling him? What's this about an uncle?"
Feng Qing dodged, "I wasn't wrong, wasn't it Little Li Li who said the guy is ten years older than her?
Everyone says there's a generational gap every three years, and with a ten-year gap, calling him uncle is already giving Little Li Li some face."
Dai Zihan glared at Feng Qing, "Little Li Li, don't listen to Feng Qing's nonsense, but we really do want to meet him, to see if he's worthy of you marrying him..."
Xiao Li chuckled, thinking about Qin Xiao just starting his new job today. Since they just arrived at a new school, it'll take a few days to settle in, so she said, "Let's wait a few days! We only just got to S City, and we haven't settled in yet, so we're a bit busy."
Feng Qing heard this and said, "So it means your husband is also going to settle in S City."
Xiao Li nodded, "Yes, so you don't have to worry about not seeing him in the future, there will be plenty of chances to meet."
Xiao Li mischievously decided not to tell Feng Qing and the others that Qin Xiao is working at their school.
Xiao Li took out her phone to check the time, thinking Qin Xiao must be done by now, so she got up to pack her luggage.
Feng Qing and the others saw her packing and asked, "Why are you packing?"
Xiao Li continued packing without stopping, putting some important things in her suitcase, "Starting this semester, I'm not living in the dorm anymore."
Feng Qing instantly understood, "Oh... well, someone who's married obviously can't live in the dorms anymore."
Xiao Li glared at her, "Stop talking about me, you guys probably won't live there either, you're going out for internships, will you still be staying in dorms?"
Reminded of the upcoming internships, Feng Qing and the others lost all of their good mood.
When Xiao Li went back to her hometown last time, she had already taken some of her luggage. Now there wasn't much left in the dorm, except for a few clothes and mostly books.
Xiao Li picked out some essential books to take with her, planning to get the rest after the semester starts again...
After packing up, Xiao Li planned to leave, and Feng Qing and the others playfully insisted on seeing her off. They escorted her to the bottom of the dorm building, but Xiao Li told them not to go any further, "You guys certainly didn't sleep well last night. As soon as I leave, I'll be taking a car, no need to see me off.
Hurry back and catch up on your sleep!"
Hearing this, they also decided not to see her off, mostly because they didn't know it was Qin Xiao who brought Xiao Li over today; otherwise, they would've stubbornly insisted on seeing her off...
Once Xiao Li saw them go upstairs, she pushed her suitcase towards the school gate while texting Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao, who had just finished talking with the Principal, received the message and immediately replied to Xiao Li, telling her to wait for a bit as he was on his way.
Xiao Li, upon receiving the message, pushed her suitcase to the gate and waited, when she saw someone coming in from outside the campus.
The person saw Xiao Li and quickly walked over, "Junior Xiao, are you returning to campus today? Let me help you with your suitcase!"
As he spoke, he reached out, trying to grab Xiao Li's suitcase handle.
Xiao Li quickly avoided him and said calmly, "Thanks, Senior Ji, but I'm not returning to campus. I'm leaving right now, just came to pick up my things."
Ji Jie Rui raised an eyebrow at this, "Is Junior not living on campus anymore?"
Xiao Li replied, "Yeah, with internships coming up, it's not convenient to stay on campus."
Ji Jie Rui nodded at this, "I see, then where are you heading? I'll take you there!
It's inconvenient for a girl to carry luggage alone."
Xiao Li quickly waved her hand, "No need, someone's coming to pick me up, thank you, senior.
Senior, you should get back to your work!"
Qin Xiao was driving towards the school gate and saw Xiao Li talking to another guy, who looked quite familiar.
In the past, Qin Xiao often watched Xiao Li from the shadows and had seen Ji Jie Rui being attentive a few times.
Back then he couldn't show himself, but now...
Qin Xiao drove over, and as soon as Xiao Li saw his car, she immediately said to Ji Jie Rui, "Senior, the person picking me up is here, I'm leaving now."
Over there, Qin Xiao parked his car, opened the door, took Xiao Li's suitcase, wrapped an arm around her shoulder, and glanced at Ji Jie Rui, "Is he a classmate?"
Xiao Li shook her head, "No, he's a senior, one year ahead."
Qin Xiao nodded at Ji Jie Rui as a form of greeting.
He then placed the suitcase in the trunk, opened the passenger door for Xiao Li, and after she got in, he also got into the car, and with one step on the gas pedal, the car sped off, leaving Ji Jie Rui frozen in the wind.
On the way back, Xiao Li could clearly feel Qin Xiao was a bit unhappy. With her high emotional intelligence, she quickly figured out why Qin Xiao was unhappy.
She didn't explain, just started talking about something else directly, "Uncle, I just went back to the dorm to move my things, and now my roommates all know about my marriage.
They're clamoring to meet you because you married me without going through them, my 'family', and they want to extort you a bit.
I told them we're busy these days, and once our new house is settled, we'll invite them over to play!"
Qin Xiao's mood was like a roller coaster ride, he was just insanely jealous and then Xiao Li fed him a super sweet candy in an instant.
Xiao Li directly told her close friends about her marriage and wanted to introduce him to her friends, which showed she wasn't against him entering her social circle.
Qin Xiao felt a rush of happiness, and he pulled the car to the side, hugged Xiao Li, and gave her a deep kiss.
After the kiss, Qin Xiao softly opened his mouth and asked, "What did you just call me?"
Xiao Li's breath was a bit off, and she laughed and said, "My girlfriends said it, there's a generational gap every three years, you're ten years older than me, I should call you uncle.
I think calling you uncle sounds good, so I called you that."
Qin Xiao chuckled softly at this, "Hmm, uncle, not bad... let's go with that from now on!"
After saying this, he kissed Xiao Li again and then started the car and set off again.
At night, Qin Xiao hugged Xiao Li as they slept. With a beauty in his arms, Qin Xiao felt a bit aroused.
But considering the child's situation hasn't been decided, Qin Xiao had to suppress his desires.
Previously, they hadn't reached a conclusion about having a child; Qin Xiao didn't want to pressure Xiao Li into making a decision, and before this, they hadn't taken any precautions.
Now, whether she was pregnant or not was still unknown, and if she was, the decision about whether or not to keep the child was still up in the air.
If she wasn't pregnant, they also needed to decide whether to use contraception for future intimacies.
