As New Year's Eve approached, He Chi took He Xiaohui back to the He family. He gave his employees a week's holiday and spent two days leisurely lying at home.
Su Ming brought his girlfriend back to China to celebrate the Spring Festival together.
To be precise, it was his wife who had already obtained a marriage certificate abroad. That night, Su Ming announced another more surprising news in front of the whole family.
His wife has been pregnant for more than a month.
He Qingwen was happier than anyone else. The family of three finally got together to celebrate the New Year. Su Ming also brought his girlfriend home. In seven months, she would become a grandmother.
Except for He Chi and He Xiaohui, who were in a calm mood, everyone in the family was grinning from ear to ear.
He Chi was silently counting the days until Jiang Yining would return when he heard Su Ming ask him:
"Cousin, why do you look unhappy?"
Lin Shu smiled and shook his head. "Don't worry about him. Your cousin's wife is out having fun. He's been like this these days."
On New Year's Eve, He Chi kept an eye on Jiang Yining's flight information after getting up in the morning.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, he arrived at the airport parking lot on time. After parking the car, He Chi sent a message to Jiang Yining: "Wife, I'm at Exit P5. You can see me after you come out and walk a few steps forward."
Ten minutes later, Jiang Yining and Zhang Qiao came out dragging their suitcases.
She asked, "Qiaoqiao, do you really not need us to take you back?"
Zhang Qiao checked the real-time information on the app. The driver was almost there. She smiled and said, "No need, really. A little absence is better than a new marriage. I won't bother you."
At the P5 exit, Jiang Yining saw He Chi at a glance.
The tall and slender man was wearing a black coat and standing next to the Land Rover with a sharp aura. He was quite eye-catching and attracted passers-by to look back frequently.
Jiang Yining pulled the suitcase, quickened his pace, and without caring about the eyes of others, he threw himself into He Chi's arms and gave him a big hug.
He Chi held her firmly, curled his lips, and seemed a little surprised by her enthusiasm.
She raised her head from his arms and looked around. Passersby were looking at her and He Chi. Jiang Yining opened the passenger door and got in with a red face.
Liu Hechi helped her put the suitcase in the trunk.
After He Chi got in the car, he asked Jiang Yining, "Are you tired?"
Jiang Yining shook his head. "It was okay. Although it took a while, the business class cabin was spacious and I got a good sleep on the plane."
When she came back from a trip out, she looked much brighter than before, but also a lot darker.
He Chi looked at her, wanting to say something but stopping himself, and in the end he didn't dare to say a word.
It was summer in New Zealand, and they were outdoors almost every day. Jiang Yining didn't even feel that her skin color had gotten any darker there.
She opened the makeup mirror, looked at herself in the mirror, then turned to look at He Chi.
After a few minutes, she frowned and turned to look at He Chi in distress, "Do you think I'm as dark as you?"
He Chi paused as he was steering the wheel.
What is meant to come will come.
Finally, he smiled helplessly and asked her, "Wife, what do you want to hear from me?"
Jiang Yining: “…”
Okay, she doesn't want to hear it.
When the car entered the city, Jiang Yining realized that He Chi was not driving towards the He family villa, but back to Yuhubancheng.
She asked in confusion, "Today is New Year's Eve, aren't we going back directly? Mom just sent a message asking where we are?"
Just as they were about to wait for the green light, He Chi opened WeChat and sent a voice message to Teacher Lin: "Mom, we'll go back tonight. He Xiaohui is in my room. Go carry him to the living room and help take care of him."
Jiang Yining finally realized what He Chi meant when he asked her "Are you tired?" when he first got in the car.
Her cheeks grew hot and she turned her head to look at the scenery outside the car window.
After sending the voice message, He Chi threw the phone aside. When the green light came on, he glanced at Jiang Yining and saw that the back of her head was facing him.
