Chapter 455 We'll Always Be Together
After Bai Wanwan's father left, the house suddenly became quiet.
"My dad and the others didn't give you any trouble, did they?"
Shen Zhichu shook her head: "No." She secretly put the check in her pocket, and Bai Qiujing didn't notice her action.
"Next time they come again when I'm not around, don't open the door."
"Your father is very good, and your sister is also very well behaved." Bai Qiujing has a very happy and complete family, so good that she never dared to imagine it before.
It was this kind of family that created Bai Qiujing. She was so busy thanking them that she would never lock her father and sister away.
Thinking of the check, Bai Qiujing became curious: "How much money did my dad write on the check?"
Shen Zhichu held the teacup in front of him and replied: “I didn’t pay much attention, but you are definitely not worth that little money.”
Bai Qiujing asked cautiously, "Then how much do you think I'm worth?"
Shen Zhichu didn’t think about it and said directly: “It’s a lot, maybe I won’t be able to find that much money in my lifetime.”
Bai Qiujing sat next to Shen Zhichu, the two of them were close to each other, no one spoke, enjoying this moment of silence.
A person can feel his heartbeat when he is quiet, and at this moment his heart is beating so hard that he seems to feel the blood flowing throughout his body. Bai Qiujing looks at Shen Zhichu who is sipping tea at the side with a soft gaze.
It turns out that he is so valuable in Shen Zhichu's heart. He will never be able to find that much money in his lifetime. So can it be extended to the next life?
Shen Zhichu said that she couldn't say sweet words, but every word she said about him could touch people's hearts, and the invisible seduction was the most deadly.
"Watching TV?"
"Let's take a look."
Bai Qiujing took the remote control and tuned it to Shen Zhichu's favorite channel. He held the remote control in his right hand and held Shen Zhichu's hand with his left hand, interlocking their fingers.
Shen Zhichu leaned his head against Bai Qiujing's shoulder and said, "Just now you said that after knowing my name, you even thought of a name for the child?"
Bai Qiujing murmured "Hmm." and his ears turned red with embarrassment.
Shen Zhichu noticed it from the corner of his eyes, raised the corner of his lips and asked: "What are you thinking about?"
"Don't laugh if I tell you that."
"I don't laugh."
Bai Qiujing hesitated and said, "If it's a girl, she'll be named Bai Muchu, and if it's a boy, he'll be named Chen Guibai..."
"Puff." Shen Zhichu really couldn't help it.
Bai Qiujing frowned: "You said you wouldn't laugh."
"Sorry, I couldn't help it." But after laughing, I felt warm inside. "Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Do you want to go home?"
"Where are you going back to?"
"Go back to your home."
"Isn't this my home?" To Bai Qiujing, home is where Chen Zhichu is.
Typical example of a man forgetting his mother after getting a wife.
Bai Qiujing explained, "Actually, I told my mom about it on the 26th. She also sensed that you weren't used to being with them, so she specifically told me to take good care of you and spend the New Year's Eve with you."
Speaking of Christmas, it has been four years since her death. When I was with Bai Qiujing, I even forgot that it was her memorial day.
Chen Zhichu: "Let's wait until New Year's Eve to go back. What should we buy next time?" I left the Bai family in a hurry this time and only brought some supplements. I need to put in more energy during the New Year.
"My parents don't need anything, but if you want to send me, ask my sister."
"Okay, it's decided then."
On New Year's Eve, Shen Zhichu and Bai Qiujing decided to make dumplings at home. The New Year's Eve party was playing on TV, with popular stars performing on the stage, singing and dancing, which was very exciting.
Bai Qiujing chopped the stuffing, while Shen Zhichu kneaded the dough and rolled it into dumpling wrappers.
"Let's make some sugar dumplings." Bai Qiujing suggested.
There is a small custom when making dumplings during the New Year. It is to wrap a silver coin in the dumplings. Whoever eats the silver coin will have good luck and make a fortune in the whole year.
If there are no silver coins at home, wrap them in candies, which symbolizes sweetness and happiness.
"Okay, then pack a few more."
The dumplings made by Shen Zhichu were not as good-looking as those made by Bai Qiujing. The man had long and flexible fingers and could make dumplings of any shape. He secretly made the sugar dumplings into the shape of goldfish.
When they were put into the pot to cook, she put all the sugar-covered dumplings into Shen Zhichu's bowl, hoping that she would have no bitterness in the next year and would always have sweetness.
Shen Zhichu didn't notice until she tasted a sugar dumpling. She excitedly showed it to Bai Qiujing: "Look, I ate a sugar dumpling."
"You are so lucky! Next year will be smooth sailing for you. You will get what you want, live in peace and happiness, and succeed in everything you do."
Eating one sugar dumpling was luck, but what about eating the second and third? Sugar dumplings have a certain flavor, but eating too much will make you sick. Shen Zhichu noticed something strange when she ate the third one. Judging from the shape of the dumpling, Bai Qiujing had put all the sugar dumplings into her bowl alone.
She paused for a moment, looked at Bai Qiujing who was eating dumplings across from her, and smiled gently.
So where does your smooth luck come from? It’s because there are people in front of you who are protecting you from the wind and rain and carrying heavy burdens, secretly giving you all the good things, and silently praying for you in their hearts.
She picked up a sugar dumpling and put it in Bai Qiujing's bowl.
Bai Qiujing saw this shape and asked, "Do you know?"
"Your method is too clumsy. I saw through it easily. Good fortune is only considered a blessing if you share it with others."
…….
Bai Qiujing and Shen Zhichu stayed up together until the early morning to celebrate the New Year. In the early morning, bells would ring and fireworks would be set off in Haidu. It is said that this is the most beautiful time in Haidu.
Shen Zhichu had never seen Haidu’s New Year’s Eve before, and it was the first time someone had spent the New Year’s Eve with her, so she had to stay up until the early morning.
The TV was on and it was bustling outside. Bai Qiujing took the firework wands he had bought earlier to the yard outside, lit them, and swung them in his hands.
Shen Zhichu held a fairy wand, and he could actually see stars in the December sky.
Shen Zhichu held up the fairy wand and looked up at the stars in the sky without blinking.
"Wait a moment, the bell will ring soon."
The host on TV was also counting down loudly: "10, 9, 8, 7..."
At this time, the cell phone in her pocket vibrated. Shen Zhichu took it out and saw that it was an unfamiliar call. She subconsciously picked it up.
A hoarse man's voice came from inside.
"Happy New Year, Shen Zhichu."
“3——”
“2——”
"1--swoosh--bang--" The early morning bell rang, and there was a sudden bang in the sky. Huge fireworks bloomed in the air, lighting up the entire sky.
Shen Zhichu held the phone tightly, and when she looked up, Bai Qiujing was standing in front of her: "I wish Shen Zhichu good health, happiness, and all her wishes come true in the new year."
Shen Zhichu hung up the call with a flick of his finger and put the phone back into his jacket pocket.
"Happy New Year, Bai Qiujing. I hope I can spend New Year's Eve with you every year from now on."
The brilliant fireworks illuminated Shen Zhichu's face and her eyes. The light in her eyes was even brighter than neon lights.
Fireworks are beautiful, but the people watching the fireworks are even more beautiful.
I don’t know if it’s because Shen Zhichu was too beautiful watching the fireworks, or because her words were too beautiful, Bai Qiujing couldn’t control his heartbeat.
"I promise you, I will spend New Year's Eve with you every year from now on." Bai Qiujing held Shen Zhichu's hand.
Thinking of the phone call Shen Zhichu had just received, he asked, "Who called just now?"
"It's a spam call. I'll put it on the blacklist later."
