Chapter 624: Chapter 624 Squeezing Time to See You, Tired but Happy

Lu Yichen listened to the conversation of the three people and felt a pang of heartache for Luo Qiao. Why should she have to learn so many things and end up exhausting herself like a dog?

He then said, "Does she really need to wear herself out like that? She just needs to pick a major she likes and live each day happily."

Yang Jiancheng said, "Alright, let’s not interfere with Qiaoqiao; let her decide for herself."

After leaving the Yang family, it was already late, and Lu Yichen drove Luo Qiao home.

The car stopped a good distance from the Luo family’s house, and Lu Yichen turned to look at Luo Qiao and blurted out, "Qiaoqiao, you don’t have to tire yourself out like this, I can support you."

As he spoke, he reached over to the back seat to grab his bag, rummaged inside, and pulled out two passbooks, passing them to Luo Qiao: "Take these."

Luo Qiao took them and, using the light inside the car, opened them to see—wow, there was quite a lot of money in the two passbooks. She looked up and asked, "Where did this come from?"

Lu Yichen answered, "Some time ago, I invested in a small transportation fleet with some buddies, and there’s also the security company you mentioned before. I invested and let others manage it while giving them shares. This is this year’s dividend from the two companies."

Luo Qiao said, "It seems the business is doing well."

Lu Yichen said, "It should be doing okay; I only take dividends without being involved in the management."

Luo Qiao thought that in a couple of years, the country would introduce a series of policies, and it was likely that she would have to divest these shares.

Luo Qiao handed the two passbooks back to Lu Yichen: "Put these away, don’t carry them around with you."

Lu Yichen, however, did not take them: "Keep them. I earn money just so you can spend it."

Luo Qiao was indeed moved by his words, but she still pushed the passbooks back into Lu Yichen’s hand: "The amounts in here are huge, better you keep them."

Luo Qiao thought to herself that she hadn’t even kept the previous five thousand, let alone these two large sums of money. She truly wasn’t lacking money. Besides, the two of them weren’t married yet; it didn’t seem proper to take it.

Seeing that he failed to give away the passbooks, Lu Yichen said, "Alright, I’ll keep them for now. Anyway, they will be yours sooner or later. I’ll hand them over to you for safekeeping once we’re engaged."

Luo Qiao smiled and said, "Aren’t you afraid I’ll take them and run away?"

Lu Yichen wrapped his arm around her and said, "Where would you run to? Even to the ends of the earth, I would find you."

Luo Qiao wasn’t prepared for his sudden gesture and was startled, instinctively wrapping her arms around his neck and pouting slightly, "You always scare people without warning."

Lu Yichen whispered in Luo Qiao’s ear, "You were the one who annoyed me first."

Since Luo Qiao wasn’t a local, she wasn’t put off by Lu Yichen’s closeness and leaned into his embrace, listening to his strong heartbeat: "How many days of leave do you have left?"

Lu Yichen rested his head on Luo Qiao’s shoulder: "Three more days. Do you have any plans?"

Luo Qiao replied, "I want to go to the bookstore to look for some materials to bring with me."

She didn’t believe that without reading or practicing, she could be absolutely certain of getting into Beijing Medical University. It was still best to be cautious and know both herself and her competition.

Lu Yichen said, "Then I’ll come over early tomorrow to pick you up and go with you."

Luo Qiao lifted her head and playfully traced her finger across his face: "Lu Yichen, how come you’re so nice?"

Lu Yichen grabbed the mischievous hand: "Mm, whenever I have time, I’ll be with you. Otherwise, I’m afraid someone might whisk you away."

His voice was huskier than before. If this little girl kept provoking him, he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to control himself. Did she even understand what she was doing?

Luo Qiao laughed upon hearing Lu Yichen’s words: "Smart choice. There are plenty of people who want to chase a girl as outstanding and pretty as me. You’ll need to put in a good performance."

Lu Yichen kissed her on the top of her head: "Mm, my rest times will all be yours from now on, okay?"

With a smile, Luo Qiao asked, "What good is your pitiful amount of rest time to me, anyway?"

Lu Yichen rubbed his nose somewhat awkwardly: "Don’t worry, there will always be time."

Hugging him tightly, Luo Qiao said, "Fine, when I have time, I’ll visit you at the station. If you have time, just rest some more. I don’t want to hear one day that you’ve fainted from exhaustion."

Lu Yichen laughed: "It’s Qiaoqiao who cares for me. Don’t worry, squeezing in time to see you, even if it’s tiring, will make me happy."
