Chapter 472
Zhong Lan also said, "You can go and celebrate the New Year with Fu Yue. The compound is close to here, so you can come back anytime you want."
"Yes." Ye Fuyue nodded. "Actually, I wanted you to bring the children to my house for the New Year, but the Liang family was still in the compound before, and I was afraid that if you went there, they would make you unhappy again, so I didn't ask you to come to my house for the New Year. This year, I finally don't have to worry about it."
Cui Li laughed and agreed, "Okay, then I'll go to your house to celebrate the New Year together."
On the day Chen Kang brought Li Hanwei back, Chen Yao and Shen Shun went to the train station to pick them up, while Ye Fuyue and Chen Guifeng cooked at home.
Before the four of them even entered the courtyard, Shen Shun shouted at the top of his voice: "Mom, Second Sister-in-law, Big Brother and his girlfriend are back——"
Chen Guifeng was delighted. She quickly wiped her hands on her apron and pulled Ye Fuyue out.
Li Hanwei was very tall, half a head taller than Ye Fuyue. She stood straight and looked heroic.
Shen Kang introduced her: "This is my mother, and this is my sister-in-law."
Li Hanwei solemnly greeted Chen Guifeng and Ye Fuyue, "Auntie, Comrade Ye."
She took the things that Shen Kang was holding, handed them to Chen Guifeng, and said, "This is something I bought for my aunt. I hope you don't mind it."
The things Li Hanwei handed over included malted milk, honey, as well as rare items like chocolate and wine.
"She kept holding these things in her arms on the train, fearing that someone would steal them. I asked her to hold them for me, but she was still worried and said that I was not as alert as her." Shen Kang said with a smile.
Chen Guifeng sneered at him, "Comrade Li is a police officer, so she's naturally much more vigilant than you."
"Yes, yes, I'm certainly not as alert as she is," Chen Kang said, "Mom, just accept it. After she decided to come back with me for the New Year, she started worrying about what to buy for you. Don't be fooled by the fact that these things look ordinary. They took her over a month to decide on."
Chen Guifeng's smile brightened a little: "Okay, I'll take it. Comrade Li, thank you for your trouble."
"It's my duty." Li Hanwei said seriously with a red face.
Ye Fuyue laughed secretly at Li Hanwei's reaction.
Chen Guifeng went to the kitchen to cook. Ye Fuyue wanted to go with her, so Chen Guifeng said to her, "Go and keep Comrade Li company. She just came here and she must not be used to it. Let Chen Yao come to the kitchen to help me."
So, Chen Yao replaced Ye Fuyue, and Ye Fuyue went to make a cup of malted milk and gave it to Li Hanwei.
Li Hanwei was flattered when Ye Fuyue brought her such a precious gift.
She sat on the chair and drank it all in one breath with great generosity.
Chen Kang said with a helpless smile: "You don't have to drink so fast, drink slowly."
"I'm thirsty." Li Hanwei excused herself.
Shen Kang knew that she was nervous. He saw that Li Hanwei was sitting very straight.
He said to Ye Fuyue, "Han Wei liked the furniture at home very much. I told her that they were all designed by you, and she was very surprised."
"Yes, Comrade Ye, you are amazing. You can even design furniture," said Li Hanwei.
"Ye Fuyue also opened a furniture shop, and Chen Shun worked as a carpenter there." Chen Kang said to Li Hanwei.
Li Hanwei's eyes widened in surprise as she gave Ye Fuyue a thumbs-up. "You truly are a role model for us female comrades."
Ye Fuyue laughed out loud: "What role model? I'm not as amazing as you say. I just use the things I know to make a living."
"It's time to eat—" Chen Guifeng brought the dishes to the table in the main hall and called out to Ye Fuyue and the others.
"Let's go eat." Shen Kang said to Li Hanwei.
Li Hanwei nodded and followed Shen Kang to sit down at the table in the main room.
Seeing the table full of dishes, Li Hanwei leaned towards Chen Kang and asked him in a low voice: "Auntie, didn't you cook so many dishes just because I came?"
Shen Kang replied to her in the same low voice: "What do you think? When I come back, my mother will cook more dishes, but not so many. She cooks so many dishes because she values you."
Li Hanwei's cheeks turned red again, and she smiled embarrassedly.
At the dinner table, Chen Guifeng asked when Shen Kang and Li Hanwei met.
Chen Kang said: "My money was stolen on the road that day. She saw the thief and chased him all the way. That's how we met."
Li Hanwei said, "He had 180 yuan in his pocket that day, and all of it was stolen."
Chen Guifeng asked Shen Kang in surprise, "How did you bring so much money? You brought so much money and were so careless that it was stolen. Luckily you met Comrade Li."
Shen Kang smiled faintly: "That money was just returned to me by someone else. I usually don't carry so much money on me."
Chen Guifeng nodded and asked them, "How long have you been together?"
Li Hanwei looked embarrassed. Chen Kang said, "About half a year."
"Then why didn't you write to me earlier to tell me that you had a boyfriend?" Chen Guifeng said to Shen Kang dissatisfiedly.
"I want to wait until our relationship is more stable before telling you," Chen Kang said, "Well, I'll just bring him back for you to meet him."
Chen Guifeng was speechless and snorted, "Okay."
After finishing her meal, Li Hanwei and Shen Kang returned to the guesthouse.
In the evening, after Shen Kang came back, he asked Chen Guifeng: "Mom, what do you think of Han Wei?"
"She's pretty good," Chen Guifeng said with satisfaction. "She looks cold, but she's got a strong character and speaks directly. Mom likes her personality."
Finally, Chen Guifeng added, "He's much better than Zhu Zhiqing."
Shen Kang automatically ignored Chen Guifeng's last words and said with a smile: "As long as you are satisfied."
"You have brought her back to meet me. When do you two plan to get married?" Chen Guifeng asked.
"She and I have already agreed that we will get married after I graduate from university," Shen Kang said.
Chen Guifeng was so happy that she kept saying "good, good, good" several times.
…
There were still a few days until the Chinese New Year. These past few days, Ye Fuyue had accompanied Chen Guifeng on her shopping spree. Li Hanwei would occasionally join them, but most of the time, it was Chen Kang who took her around the city.
On New Year's Eve, Cui Li came early in the morning with Huan Di and Lai Bao.
Shen Kang had already told Li Hanwei about Cui Li's matter a long time ago.
When Li Hanwei saw Cui Li, her eyes lit up, which made Cui Li feel puzzled.
She whispered to Ye Fuyue, "Why does your brother's girlfriend always look at me like that?"
Ye Fuyue glanced at Li Hanwei and whispered to Cui Li, "From what I understand, the way she looks at you means she really admires you."
"Worship me?" Cui Li was even more puzzled. "Why should she admire me? I even admire her because she's a police officer."
