Chapter 98 New Year's Eve



Chapter 98 New Year's Eve

As soon as the two entered the house, they felt a warm breeze blowing on their faces. Qin Wu put the gift on the table, raised his hand to help Lin Jinyan take off the scarf and hung it on the hanger at the door.

Zhang Xiufang watched this scene with a smile on her face, saying nothing, but she was becoming more and more satisfied with Qin Wu.

From the details, she found out that Qin Wu treated Lin Jianyan like the apple of his eye. Although what happened at the beginning made them feel sad, after getting to know each other, she found out that Qin Wu was a little fierce, but he was really good to Lin Jianyan.

Even Wang Zhide changed his attitude towards him and no longer rejected him.

Wang Zhide heard the commotion and came out of the kitchen wearing an apron. "Ayan, Qin Wu, you are here. Come and sit down. Chat first. The meal will be ready in a while. Today I will let you taste my cooking skills."

The two of them responded, and Wang Zhide went back to cooking. Zhang Xiufang poured two glasses of water and placed them on the tea table, smiling, "Usually, your uncle De cooks, and he's also busy in the store, but fortunately, we've hired two people, so it's much easier."

Lin Jianyan picked up the water cup, took a sip and said with a smile: "Then you are enjoying yourself now."

Zhang Xiufang smiled happily and said with emotion: "Yes, now that I think about it, it seems like a dream. I am really afraid that in the end, the dream will be in vain."

Lin Jiahao came in carrying a stool. When he heard what he said, he pouted twice in an unlucky tone: "Pooh, pooh, pooh, mom, you are talking nonsense again."

The three people in the room laughed softly, and Zhang Xiufang said, "Okay, okay, I won't say it anymore. I won't say it anymore in the future. You guys chat, I'll go to the kitchen to help."

Lin Jianyan asked about Lin Jiahao's studies and life, and after a brief chat, it was almost time for dinner.

The aroma of rice filled the air, and the table was filled with delicious food. The family sat around the table full of delicacies, looking at the delicious food in front of them, their eyes filled with joy, and laughter spread throughout the house.

Then Wang Zhide forced Qin Wu to drink again.

Zhang Xiufang: “…”

Zhang Xiufang was so angry that her hands were itching. She hadn't changed her ways after being beaten up last time. She knew that Qin Wu wouldn't be able to refuse so she forced him to drink and hid the wine from him later.

Lin Jianyan was also helpless and comforted Zhang Xiufang, "It's okay if it happens once in a while. Uncle De is also happy."

Zhang Xiufang patted Wang Zhide on the head and sighed helplessly, "I have already cleaned up the room next door. Let Ah Wu go to sleep for a while, otherwise he will have a headache. Ah Hao, help your brother to help your brother Qin Wu to the room."

Lin Jiahao: “Okay.”

Qin Wu waved his hands, his face flushed from drinking too much, "It's okay, Mom. I'm not drunk. I can handle it myself."

He didn't drink as much this time as last time. He just felt a little flushed, but he wasn't actually that confused.

Lin Jianyan: "..." You're calling mom now, and you're not even drunk yet. What is this, speaking the truth after drinking?

Zhang Xiufang smiled happily when he called her "Mom". "Then go and have some rest. I'll make you some sobering soup later."

Qin Wu stood up shakily, and Lin Jianyan and Lin Jiahao were so scared that they protected him. Seeing that he couldn't walk in a straight line after taking a few steps, Lin Jianyan had to carry him forward.

"Don't be so stubborn, go to bed quickly, and remember to brush your teeth and wash your face."

Qin Wu was supported by him and said "oh" obediently.

Under Lin Jinyan's supervision, he washed up, changed into pajamas and lay down on the bed obediently. The sobering soup prepared by Zhang Xiufang was also ready.

"Let Wu drink some so he won't have a headache when he wakes up."

Lin Jianyan took the sobering soup that Zhang Xiufang brought over. Fearing that he would refuse to drink it like last time, he only fed him two sips carefully. When he saw that he drank it obediently, he directly let him hold the cup and drink.

Qin Wu was much more obedient this time than last time. He obediently took the cup and drank it all in one gulp. After drinking, he lay on the bed and fell asleep soon after.

Lin Jianyan tucked the quilt in for him and tiptoed out the door. Zhang Xiufang saw him coming out and asked softly, "Are you asleep?"

Lin Jianyan rolled up his sleeves and cleaned up the dishes and leftovers on the table with Lin Jiahao and Zhang Xiufang. Hearing Zhang Xiufang's question, he also whispered, "He fell asleep. It's the New Year, and there's a lot of work at his company these past two days. He always can't sleep until midnight and gets up early. Today, he finally got a good night's sleep."

"Where's Uncle De? Is he asleep?"

"He slept, slept. He got up before dawn to clean. He was tired after a whole day and fell asleep as soon as he touched the bed."

After the three of them had packed up, they sat on the sofa and chatted for a while. Zhang Xiufang looked up at the clock on the wall. It was almost four o'clock.

"They may not be able to get up these two nights, so let's just have a simple meal. There's a lot of food left over from lunch, so we can just heat it up a bit."

Lin Jianyan had no objection, but Lin Jiahao said embarrassedly: "I won't eat at home tonight. My friend asked me to go out for dinner. It might end very late, and I may not be able to come back at night."

Zhang Xiufang's eyes lit up and she asked, "How many people are there? Boys and girls?"

Seeing her like this, Lin Jiahao felt helpless. "Mom, what are you thinking? They are all men, my classmates, there are quite a few of them."

Hearing that they were all men, Zhang Xiufang lost interest. "Well, take the key with you when you leave. If it's too late, I won't leave the door open for you."

Lin Jiahao: "Okay, I understand."

Only Lin Jianyan felt that something was wrong with Lin Jiahao. He had never seen him go out during the Chinese New Year in previous years. Of course, it could also be said that he made new friends this year, but when he just said he was going out for dinner, he seemed to see him blushing?

Although it was only for a moment and he returned to normal the next moment, Lin Jianyan swore that he was definitely not wrong.

Should I feel embarrassed to go out to eat with an ordinary male classmate? It's suspicious. Very suspicious.

Lin Jiahao inexplicably felt that his brother's eyes were a little strange. He felt uncomfortable being stared at by him and was fidgeting. "Brother, what's wrong? Why are you staring at me?"

Zhang Xiufang also looked at Lin Jianyan in confusion.

Lin Jianyan blinked and smiled innocently, "It's okay, I'm fine."

He still didn't say anything in front of Zhang Xiufang, and he didn't think Lin Jiahao had come to his senses. If he exposed the truth now, things might get worse, so he might as well take it one step at a time.

Even though he said this, Lin Jiahao still felt uncomfortable, as if his brother had seen through something he didn't know, which made him inexplicably nervous.

It was almost time, so Lin Jiahao picked up his coat from the sofa, stood up, and said, "Mom, brother, it's getting late, I'll leave first."

Zhang Xiufang was completely unaware of the brothers' thoughts. She just reminded Lin Jiahao not to forget to take the key. "Drive slowly on the way. The key is in the shoe cabinet at the door. Don't forget to take it."

Lin Jiahao: “Got it!”
