Chapter 318: Tangyuan or Dumplings
On the way back, Li Zhen and Lu Xingchen sat in the back seat of the car, enjoying the rare quiet time.
"Are you happy today?" Li Zhen asked.
Lu Xingchen nodded and leaned towards Li Zhen's shoulder. "Luo Ning is quite interesting. How about you? Are you happy?"
Li Zhen gently stroked Lu Xingchen's hair, "I am very happy too, but it has nothing to do with others. It's just because you are here, Lu Xingchen. The moment you appeared in Shencheng, I felt that I was the happiest person in the world."
Lu Xingchen couldn't help but reach out to hold his hand, looking at the scenery under the sunset outside the window, with a deep smile on his lips, "It seems that I have to work harder. I couldn't make you feel that you are the happiest person in the world in Yuecheng."
Li Zhen was so amused by her that he turned around and kissed her hair, "You in Yuecheng made me feel that I am the happiest person in the universe."
Lu Xingchen raised his head and argued with him, "Shenzhen City is not convinced. How is it inferior to Guangdong City?"
Li Zhen raised his lips, "Shenzhen is not your hometown, but Yuecheng is. Every place in Yuecheng that touched me, I can't help but wonder if Lu Xingchen has been here. Sometimes, because of a place or a store you mentioned, I suddenly passed by and saw it, and it was as if I saw you appear there."
Li Zhen couldn't help being moved as he spoke, and he leaned his head against Lu Xingchen's soft hair and said, "Look, how much I like you. Because of you, I can fall in love with a whole city. Because of you, you are in every corner of the whole city."
Lu Xingchen's eyes were filled with warm and soft light, "I didn't know you were so good at saying sweet words before."
Li Zhen glanced at the driver and whispered in her ear, "I can do many things without any instruction in front of you, including... sleeping with you."
Lu Xingchen pushed him. This guy was really serious when he was not serious.
Li Zhen smiled and corrected himself, "Actually, that's not quite accurate, because I've rehearsed this countless times in my mind and dreams."
Lu Xingchen burst out laughing, "So, you miss me so much."
Li Zhen sighed, "Yeah, it always hurts when you want to get what you want."
Lu Xingchen was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, looked at him and said, "It's not good to do this all the time."
Li Zhen bit her ear and whispered, "Do you still think it's not good enough?"
"I wouldn't dare to be so pretentious. It works. Very useful."
"Do you still want to use it?"
What do you mean? Lu Xingchen glared at the man unhappily, "What do you want to do?"
Li Zhen held her hand in his and rubbed it, "Well, I want you to ride a horse to celebrate the New Year."
Lu Xingchen thought, yes, tomorrow is the Gregorian New Year, but... She asked him unhappily, "So how are you going to celebrate the New Year, Mr. Li?"
"I want to be that horse that has broken free from its reins and gallops across your..."
Lu Xingchen covered his mouth with her hand. Although all men are the same when they are shameless, because it was Li Zhen, she actually felt that shamelessness became sweet.
Lu Xingchen and Li Zhen celebrated the New Year on horseback in Shenzhen.
Early in the morning on New Year's Day in Yuecheng, in a villa in Cuiyu Manor, Wang Yaning was making breakfast in the kitchen.
As northerners, they have the habit of eating dumplings. After coming to Yuecheng for more than ten or twenty years, they have also adapted to the local customs of the southerners, so Wang Yaning cooked both dumplings and glutinous rice balls.
After putting the dumplings and glutinous rice balls on the table, she walked to the stairs and shouted loudly to the second floor: "Li Shu, Li Wen, hurry up and get up for breakfast!"
There was no response from upstairs, so she shouted again, "I'll give you five minutes. Don't wait for me to go up and call you!"
After saying that, she went back to the kitchen and took out a few side dishes and put them on the table.
At this time, Li Wen had already come downstairs and greeted, "Mom, good morning."
Wang Yaning: "Hurry up and wash up and have breakfast. I made your favorite sauerkraut dumplings. Hey, your sister hasn't woken up yet?"
"She and Sister Huanxi came back very late last night, and we don't know if they can get up yet." Li Wen said this and walked into the bathroom and closed the door.
At this time, the aunt came in and said to Wang Yaning: "Sister Wang, Miss Chen Xiaolin is here."
"Hyolin?" Wang Yaning untied her apron and hung it up, then walked out the door. When she reached the door, she saw Chen Xiaolin taking a large lunch box and a large bag from the back seat. "Hyolin is here."
Chen Xiaolin took the things, turned around and saw Wang Yaning and said with a smile: "Auntie, Happy New Year."
"Happy New Year, Happy New Year. You're here so early. Li Shu is still sleeping." As she spoke, she had already walked to Chen Xiaolin's side.
Chen Xiaolin, who was carrying something, pushed the car door closed, turned around and said to her with a smile: "My mother also woke me up, otherwise I would still be sleeping. My mother made some handmade glutinous rice balls and asked me to send them to you as soon as possible."
"Your mother is so polite. She has sent us gifts so many times, and I haven't even treated her to a meal yet."
"She's going to visit her grandmother today, otherwise she would have come along." As she spoke, she saw Wang Yaning reaching out to take the things in her hand, and she smiled and said, "Auntie, let me take it."
Wang Yaning didn't bother to be polite anymore, and they both went into the house together.
Although it was only a little after eight o'clock, there was no one in the living room. Chen Xiaolin was still a little surprised and asked, "Didn't Li Wen have a holiday for New Year's Day?"
"Li Wen came back yesterday and is washing his face."
As he was talking, Li Wen came out after washing up. Seeing Chen Xiaolin, he smiled and said, "Sister Xiaolin is here."
"Good morning, Li Wen. It's been a long time since we last met. You look handsome again."
"Becoming more handsome is normal." Li Wen replied jokingly, then sat down in the restaurant amid Wang Yaning's ridicule.
Wang Yaning also asked Chen Xiaolin to sit down, "Xiaolin, you and Li Wen eat first, I'll go cook the glutinous rice balls your mother made so that we can eat fresh ones. It's your mother who makes delicious dim sum."
"Auntie, please stop worrying. I'll just eat these."
"It's okay, it's okay. The fate between people is quite magical. I have known you for such a long time. If you hadn't mentioned it last time, I wouldn't have known that your mother and Xingchen had such a good relationship."
"Xingchen and I grew up together." Chen Xiaolin said this and asked, "By the way, where is Xingchen? Didn't she go home with Li Zhen to celebrate the holidays?"
"My brother and Xingchen are still in Shenzhen." It was Lin Huanxi who said this.
Chen Xiaolin looked over when she heard the voice and saw Lin Huanxi and Li Shu, both wearing winter pajamas, coming down from upstairs. She smiled and raised her hand to greet them, "Good morning, two beautiful ladies."
"Good morning, two beauties."
As soon as Chen Xiaolin finished speaking, she heard someone at the door repeating her words, and everyone looked towards the door.
Su Wanyi smiled gently and walked in, "Sister Li Shu, good morning, Sister Huanxi."
Li Shu raised his hand and waved at her: "You are really early, we are forced to be early."
"It's already so late and you're still forced to get up early. Hyo-lin drove forty minutes to get to our house. Hey Wanyi? Kid, why did you buy so many fruits just for the sake of coming? We can't finish all the ones at home." Wang Yaning thought Su Wanyi was spending too much.
Su Wanyi smiled shyly, "Sorry Auntie, I came here to have breakfast again."
"Come on, come on, it's better to come every day. Today is a great day. You kids all took the initiative to gather together for me. Li Shu is happy. You guys should also come and have breakfast." Wang Yaning talked to her two children and called Su Wanyi and Chen Xiaolin, "You guys sit down. I'll go get you some more food."
