Chapter 51 Okay, you wait
Xia Shuran almost dropped her phone.
You are in the US now, your dad is sick, and you still have the mood to think about this.
Chi Yu: [My dad is not sick]
Xia Shuran: [Then he handed the company over to you? ]
Chi Yu: [He simply didn't want to do it anymore and started studying Buddhism, tea art, and the Christian Tao Te Ching.]
Xia Shuran: "..."
Your father has learned a lot.
Chi Yu: [Don't change the subject]
Xia Shuran was ashamed and angry, [It’s New Year’s Eve now… Aren’t you afraid of your dad hearing it?]
"We're in two different villas, about two football fields apart. Do you think you can shout that loudly?"
It was because Chi Yu was not around, otherwise Xia Shuran would have beaten him up sooner or later.
Xia Shuran argued with him for a few words and then refused with righteous indignation.
What a joke, her parents are in the living room, just across the wall.
Her house doesn't have walls as thick as two football fields.
After being rejected, Chi Yu was gloomy.
[Okay, you wait]
Xia Shuran laughed, "I'm so scared, come and punish me, come on."
Chi Yu: [I will return to China tomorrow]
Xia Shuran: [I don’t believe it]
Chi Yu didn't reply to her, and Xia Shuran made a face at the phone screen.
The next morning, Xia Shuran was woken up by Xiaohe's call.
Xia Shuran, with messy hair, gnashed her teeth.
"You better be calling me because your house is on fire and you're trapped, or you're being held hostage by a murderer!"
Xiao He's cheerful voice, mixed with the sound of firecrackers in the streets, came from the other end of the phone.
"Look out the window! It's snowing!"
"Even if you stab me, I still want to sleep!" Xia Shuran was so angry that she hung up the phone.
After taking another half-hour nap, she got up and opened the curtains, and saw a vast expanse of white outside.
Xia Shu then realized it belatedly.
As a southern city, snow is so rare in Haicheng that it is rare to see it once in ten years.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xia Shuran and her family went to Grandma Li's house to pay New Year's greetings, and they happened to meet Xiaoni who was making a fuss about going outside to play in the snow.
Xia Shuran agreed with her to take her there later.
Xiao Ni's parents are happy to have some free time now that someone is willing to play with this little monkey.
The snow didn't stop until evening.
After dinner, Xiao Ni, wearing a tiger-head hat, tiptoed to knock on the door, "Auntie, let's go!"
Before leaving, Xia Shuran turned back and put on a scarf.
As she took Xiao Ni to the downstairs of the residential complex, Xiao Ni ran out like a wild horse, and Xia Shuran couldn't catch up with her.
It was already dark at this time, but the lights in the community were bright, and the green area was full of children playing in the snow.
Xiao Ni had already started a snowball fight with a little boy, and Xia Shuran was forced to join in.
Xiao Ni hit the target every time with the cannonball, and Xia Shuran smiled and begged for mercy again and again.
Just when Xiao Ni was about to "kill with one blow", she stopped, pointed behind her, and said in a dazed voice, "There is a big brother."
Xia Shuran had an inexplicable premonition and her heart was pounding. She looked back and saw a tall and handsome young man in a windbreaker standing not far away.
Bits of light and fire reflected in his narrow, dark eyes, evoking a faint smile.
Xia Shuran was stunned for a moment, and then, as if by reflex, she threw a snowball and ran towards him.
Chi Yu chuckled, took a step forward and opened his arms to catch her, "Slow down, baby."
He held her in his arms and kissed the top of her head, "Do you miss me?"
Xia Shuran hugged his waist tightly, feeling his taut muscles, and put her face on his chest. While listening to his heartbeat, she pursed her lips and said, "Not really."
Chi Yu smiled softly. He lifted her chin and slowly traced her facial features with his eyes. Finally, he stopped at her pink lips, and his eyes darkened.
Following his thoughts, his kiss fell gently. Thinking that they were outdoors and there were many people around, he didn't stay for long and separated in an instant.
Xia Shuran took his arm, looked up with sparkling eyes, and asked, "Why did you return home?"
"I miss you." His tone was hoarse, and the frivolous ending sound lingered lowly, making her ears numb.
"What about your dad?"
"Yes, my grandma is in the hospital, and we came back to see her."
"Are you sick?"
"I sprained my ankle while dancing."
Xia Shuran asked in surprise, "Is your grandmother a dancer?"
Chi Yu was amused by her silliness. He leaned close to her ear and said word by word, "Square dance artist."
Xia Shuran: "..."
She slapped him in annoyance.
I didn’t expect that the Chiyu family, an old wealthy family that has never been poor for generations, would also dance square dancing?
Chi Yu's grandmother was a lively old lady who couldn't stay idle at home, so she made an appointment to dance with her old sisters. Unexpectedly, she twisted her foot on New Year's Eve.
Chi Yu first went to the hospital with his father to visit his grandmother, had dinner at his grandfather's house, and then rushed to see Xia Shuran.
Xia Shuran asked him how he knew her family's address, and Chi Yu raised his eyebrows and said he guessed.
Xia Shuran narrowed her eyes and turned to talk about the acquisition of Xia's father's company.
Chi Yu admitted that it was him.
Xia Shuran said, "There's no need. My dad's company is on the verge of bankruptcy. It's been losing money for several years. How do you venture capitalists do market research?"
Chi Yu smiled and said, "It's not difficult for a pharmaceutical company to turn a loss into a profit. This company has a good foundation."
Chi Yu pinched her cheek, raised his eyebrows, and spoke in a calm tone, with the last syllable rising, in a low and lazy voice.
"Okay, let's do something else."
