Chapter 320 New Year's Eve
This was obviously unreasonable. The situation was critical after he was shot and his attention was all on the enemy. Thinking back carefully afterwards, the only strange thing should be the water used to rinse the wound. As the clean water covered the wound, a cool feeling came over him.
At that time, he just thought it was caused by the cold weather and cold water. Now, thinking about it, Gu Yuehuai's repeated instructions before leaving, and the untimely coolness and comfort when washing the wound, all show that the water she brought for him was very special.
Of course, he knew about this himself and would not mention it to others.
Xu Chuangu stood up, his tall and sturdy figure gave people an oppressive feeling.
He came to Yan Shaoyu, looking at the peach blossom eyes that were exactly the same as that man's. A trace of nostalgia and pain flashed across his eyes. He sighed and patted Yan Shaoyu's shoulder: "Try harder."
Yan Shaoyu nodded and handed the document back. When he reached the door, he turned around to look at Xu Chuangu who was still standing there watching him leave. He pursed his thin lips, his tense eyebrows relaxed, and he said in a clear voice, "Thank you, Uncle Xu."
The name "Uncle Xu" made Xu Chuangu pause for a moment, and then a little warmth seemed to well up in his eyes.
Yan Shaoyu thanked him and left without looking back, as if the sentimental words just now were just an illusion, leaving Xu Chuangu alone, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. After a long while, he angrily scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, you are still the same as when you were little."
Yan Shaoyu walked on the wide training ground. The howling cold wind calmed him down.
He raised his eyes to look at the azure sky and white clouds, listened to the occasional sound of the sea coming with the wind, and his ebony-like peach blossom eyes blinked slightly. A slender and graceful figure with a faint smile on her face seemed to appear before his eyes.
“Beep—beep—”
A whistle sounded, awakening his thoughts.
Yan Shaoyu narrowed his narrow eyes slightly, exhaled a breath, and strode towards the place where the whistle sounded.
According to the time, the letter should have arrived in Qing'an County, right?

Lunar New Year's eve.
Gu Yuehuai went to work early. She had already chopped the dumpling stuffing in advance and was just waiting for everyone to make dumplings together in the evening.
She arrived at the office and just picked up the paintbrush when she noticed a resentful gaze from the side.
Gu Yuehuai didn't want to pay attention, but the owner of the gaze was very persistent, and it seemed that he would not give up until she spoke first. She sighed lightly and turned to look at Wan Qinglan: "What's wrong? What's the matter?"
Her words stirred up a hornet's nest. Wan Qinglan kept chattering, listing Gu Yuehuai's crimes in detail.
"Gu Yuehuai, you have changed. Am I not your best friend? Even if I can't be your sister-in-law, our relationship has not changed. You have really ignored me recently. You left without telling me and asked for leave without telling me!"
"Do you have another friend? Is it the one your eldest brother likes?"
As Wan Qinglan spoke, she pouted in grievance, acting like a complete child.
Gu Yuehuai's mouth twitched, and he reached out to push her forehead away: "Wan Qinglan, how old are you?"
Wan Qinglan hugged Gu Yuehuai's arm and cried, "I don't care! I don't care! We have known each other for so long, how can I let someone else take over? I am your best friend, you can't change your mind!"
Gu Yuehuai rubbed his forehead and said, "This is not how you can be a latecomer. You are a copy editor."
Wan Qinglan snorted and didn't care.
"I originally wanted to invite you to my house tonight to celebrate New Year's Eve, but thinking that you would stay at home with your family, I won't ask you that. I asked for leave yesterday because of an urgent matter." Gu Yuehuai spoke in a light voice and said a few words casually, which was considered an explanation.
Wan Qinglan is a nice person, and she has always treated her as a friend, but she doesn't have the concept of the best or not.
She has been a loner since she was young. She has three older brothers and doesn't need friends. In addition, because of everything she experienced in her previous life, she is wary of everyone, so all her friends are the same to her.
I thought Wan Qinglan would not agree to this, but she looked ecstatic: "Celebrate New Year's Eve? Can I go?"
Gu Yuehuai raised his eyebrows and said slowly, "Sure."
Wan Qinglan grinned, but her smile froze on her face before it could spread, because Gu Yuehuai added: "It's like this, there's something I didn't tell you, my brother already has a girlfriend."
Wan Qinglan's face twitched, and he said unhappily, "Did you do this on purpose?"
Gu Yuehuai shook his head: "I'm just telling you, I'm afraid you might be embarrassed if you see me there tonight."
The atmosphere was silent for a long time, and Wan Qinglan said with a relaxed look: "What's so embarrassing about this? I went there as your friend. What does it have to do with your brother? As long as you invite me, I will go!"
Gu Yuehuai glanced at her and said thoughtfully, "Okay, then you can go with me after get off work."
Wan Qinglan breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Huang Binbin and said, "Old Huang, when you get off work tonight, stop by my house and tell my parents that I'm going to Yue Huai's house to celebrate New Year's Eve, so you don't have to wait for me."
Huang Binbin pursed his lips, his face looking a little bad, but in the end he nodded silently.
He really couldn't say anything to refuse Wan Qinglan's request.
Gu Yuehuai looked at Huang Binbin with pity. In love, one must have the courage to fight for it. If he stayed by Wan Qinglan's side as a guardian, she would never see his true intentions.
The day passed quickly.
Gu Yuehuai put away the drawing board, tidied up his desk, and prepared to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things.
Wan Qinglan was also very happy and happily followed her out of the unit.
Huang Binbin watched the two people walk away, sighed, packed up his things and went home.
Supply and marketing cooperative.
As soon as Gu Yuehuai and Wan Qinglan entered the door, they saw Yao Meili talking to a customer.
Today is New Year's Eve. Not many people come to the supply and marketing cooperative. Everyone has bought everything they need. They all want to go home early tonight to make dumplings and celebrate the New Year with their families.
Yao Meili was also very happy when she saw the two of them. She raised her hand and greeted them, "Yue Huai, Qing Lan!"
Gu Yuehuai chuckled and said, "You go ahead and do your work first."
Yao Meili curled her lips, lowered her head and whispered a few words to her colleague, then turned and walked towards the two of them: "Why are you here? Today is New Year's Eve, aren't you going home early?"
Gu Yuehuai looked at the counter full of goods and said with a smile, "I came here right after work to buy some things. After all, it's New Year's Eve and we can't be perfunctory. I'll have a few bottles of beer, a bottle of white wine, some candy, peanuts and sunflower seeds. Bring them all."
Yao Meili was slightly surprised and glanced at Wan Qinglan unexpectedly: "Qinglan, are you going to Yue Huai's house to celebrate New Year's Eve?"
Wan Qinglan raised her chin slightly, put her arm around Gu Yuehuai and said, "Well, Yuehuai is good at cooking and makes delicious food. It's better to go to Yuehuai's house to chat and eat with my parents and brother at home. We are all young people and we can chat well, right?"
