Lunar New Year's Eve

Gu Family Villa

Although the Gu family is now the richest family in China, their villa is not decorated in a lavish style. Instead, it exudes understated luxury, with various antique vases and famous paintings casually hung throughout the villa.

It's already past 11 p.m.

The entire Gu family is still staying up to welcome the New Year.

The spacious first floor has two mahjong machines in the center. One is for Nanqing, her eldest and third brothers, and Gu's mother, while the other is for Gu's father, second brother, and Nanqing's grandparents. The two mahjong machines are clearly separated for the family.

Today, both Nanqing and Gu's mother are wearing red cheongsams.

Although Gu's mother had given birth to four children, she was so well-maintained that you couldn't tell from her face or figure that she was a mother of four. On the contrary, the red cheongsam she wore accentuated her gentle temperament and made her look incredibly charming.

Today, Nan Qing was also wearing a red embroidered cheongsam. Her golden curly hair was all tied up, and her exquisite body was tightly wrapped in the cheongsam. Although she lacked the unique charm of the cheongsam compared to her mother, she had more of a youthful and charming look.

At this moment, Nan Qing was holding a card in her hand, rubbing it back and forth. After a moment, she realized what the card was. With a sly look in her eyes, she confidently played the card.

"Thirty thousand"

But Gu Nanqian, sitting opposite her, saw Nanqing's card, raised his handsome eyebrows, and said in a slightly provocative tone:

"hey-hey"

"bump"

"My dearest, how did you know I was waiting for this card?"

Thanks!

Gu Nanqian's tone and expression were arrogant. There was nothing he could do; his sister had terrible luck and played a good hand terribly. No matter how much his older brother fed her cards, he couldn't stop her.

So he can only reluctantly accept winning a few small hands, haha~

Then Gu Nanqian gave Nanqing an extremely arrogant look before throwing out a card.

"Six Articles"

Looking at the two sixes that she had just broken apart and thrown out, Nanqing was so angry that she turned around and started complaining to her mother, who was sitting next to her.

"Mom, look at him!"

"He did it on purpose; he knew I wanted this card."

Gu's mother looked at her two children who never grew up with a sense of helplessness.

"Gu Nanqian, be more considerate of your younger sister."

"If you win all of your sister's allowance, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep yours either."

While speaking, Gu's mother also gestured to her silly son with her eyes, urging him to quickly look at Gu's father, who was staring at him from another table.

This child just never learns from his mistakes.

She couldn't control that doting father.

Gu Nanqian looked in the direction his mother pointed, and immediately saw his father's dark eyes. Oh, that scared me to death.

Gu Nanqian shuddered, his skin crawling with goosebumps, and immediately backed down without a second thought.

He didn't think this was admitting defeat.

This is called having a plan and knowing when to stop.

Meanwhile, Gu's eldest brother, who had been trying his best to feed cards to Nanqing, just looked at Gu Nanqian with amusement.

After all these years, how come you still don't have any sense of self-awareness?

He's both terrible at the game and loves to play. He never learns from being taught a lesson and always has to make Qingqing cry before he'll stop.

Then he fed Nanqing another card.

He was somewhat helpless about Qingqing. He just couldn't understand her thought process. Not to mention that she was really unlucky, even when she got a good hand, she always found a way to ruin it.

Year after year, he could only sit to Qingqing's left and feed her the cards.

Nan Qing's mahjong skills haven't improved at all over the years; on the contrary, he feels that his current mahjong skills are terrifyingly strong.

The family chatted and laughed, playfully waiting for midnight to arrive.

On the other side...

After finishing his New Year's Eve dinner, Shen Moqiu watched the Spring Festival Gala with his aunt and cousin for a while before returning to his room.

The room was dark and the lights were off. Shen Moqiu sat alone on the bed, leaning against the headboard.

The dim light from the phone illuminated Shen Moqiu's face, making his features appear even more outstanding and handsome. His eyes, fixed on the phone screen, barely blinked.

Shen Moqiu's fingers involuntarily touched the phone screen, and he said very softly:

"Qingqing~"

I haven't seen his Qingqing for over a week.

So in the end, he couldn't resist.

He hacked into Qingqing's home surveillance network once again.

Watching Qingqing joke and laugh heartily with her family, Shen Moqiu felt happy too.

Shen Moqiu stared intently at Nan Qing's every smile and frown on his phone.

They didn't feel there was anything wrong with using this method.

She was originally his beloved.

What's wrong with openly looking at his beloved?

There's absolutely nothing wrong with it.

If Qingqing finds out, she'll definitely praise him for being smart.

Soon after midnight, the Gu family members finished their mahjong game and went upstairs to rest, since they had to get up early the next day.

Nanqing went up to the third floor with her three older brothers to return to her room.

Goodnight, big brother.

Goodnight, Second Brother.

Goodnight, Gu Nanqian, too, hehehe~

After saying goodnight to her three brothers, Nan Qing quickly opened the door and slipped inside. If she had been any slower, Gu Nanqian would have definitely grabbed her!

Nan Qing pounced on her soft bed, rolled around happily a few times, grabbed the tablet next to her, and prepared to find a movie to watch while she took a shower.

Nan Qing was unaware of this at the time.

Every word and action of his was exposed to a pair of eyes hidden in the darkness.

That's right.

Shen Moqiu saw Nan Qing preparing to go upstairs, but there were no surveillance cameras in Nan Qing's room.

So he skillfully switched the screen on his phone to another camera.

Soon, Nan Qing's delicate face appeared on Shen Moqiu's phone screen at very close range.

Shen Moqiu could see clearly that Qingqing was lying on the bed, her cute little feet dangling back and forth, indicating that she was in a really good mood.

But Qingqing.

Don't you miss me at all?

Shen Moqiu's dark pupils appeared somewhat dull under the dim light of the phone.

Nan Qing looked at the movies on the tablet and picked one that interested her.

She then carried the tablet into the dressing room, propped it up on the middle cabinet, and took out the pajamas and bathrobe she would wear after taking a shower from the wardrobe.

Then she reached behind her and slowly unzipped the back of her cheongsam, exposing her beautifully curved, smooth back to the air.

at the same time.

It was also exposed to the pair of dark eyes that were spying on Nan Qing from behind the darkness.
