After the dance ended, Lin Yue turned around, pulled Song Yunzheng through the crowded throng, and escaped the hustle and bustle of the bar.
Song Yunzheng had worked a long day, and although he hid the weariness between his brows very well, it was still noticed by the observant Lin Yue.
Emerging from the bar, they were greeted by a beautiful moment. Fireworks burst forth in the night sky, each more dazzling than the last. Lin Yue tilted her head back, a slight smile playing on her lips, and watched quietly. Her bright, dark eyes reflected both the fireworks and him.
After the dazzling display, the sky returned to calm, leaving only a wisp of smoke, drifting like a light veil, and a faint trace of the afterglow of the magnificent fireworks, lingering in the air.
"Where else would you like to go?" Song Yunzheng asked gently.
Lin Yue turned to look at him and shook her head. "It's late, you must be tired. Let's go home."
Song Yunzheng chuckled and gently patted her head.
"Okay, let's go home."
Back to Courtyard No. 1.
It was already 1:30 a.m. Lin Yue quickly tidied herself up and sat on the edge of the bed to send New Year's greetings to her friends and classmates.
Suddenly, everything went dark, and when I looked up, I saw Song Yunzheng handing me a large red envelope.
May you be safe and sound every year, little one.
Lin Yue was slightly taken aback, but the next second, she smiled and reached out to take it, saying, "Thank you, husband."
She thought he would transfer the money via WeChat, but she didn't expect it to be such a traditional red envelope with a sense of ceremony.
Upon opening it, I found a thick wad of cash; it was difficult to pull it out. Clearly, the red envelope had reached its limit and couldn't hold any more.
The sound of counting money echoed in the bedroom. Lin Yue, like a little money-grubber, sat cross-legged with a never-ending upturn on her lips.
Song Yunzheng had just come out of the shower, his black hair hanging down slightly, and he looked at her with a deep gaze.
Doesn't it feel good to count money?
"Mmm." Lin Yue nodded emphatically.
"I gave you a red envelope for Chinese New Year, how are you going to thank me?"
"What do you want?" Lin Yue didn't even look up, focused on counting the money.
The man didn't respond for a long time. She paused in counting the money, looked up at him, and her brow twitched.
A glint of light shone in his eyes, and a tender smile played on his lips. He was making it clear to her what he wanted; it was practically written all over his face.
Lin Yue swallowed hard, carefully put the money away, and placed it neatly on the bedside table next to her, then obediently moved it a little further in.
"Um... could you please leave no trace..." she muttered softly.
She has to go back to Qingshuiyuan tomorrow; she doesn't want to bring a neck full of strawberries back with her.
Song Yunzheng reached out and turned off the overhead light, leaving only a small table lamp, instantly creating an ambiguous atmosphere in the room.
He chuckled softly as he walked towards her, "I'll try my best to control myself..."
...
The next day, after breakfast, Song Yunzheng filled the trunk of his car to the brim and took Lin Yue back to Qingshuiyuan to pay New Year's visits.
"Honey, isn't this... a bit too much?" Lin Yue looked at the trunk full of gifts in astonishment.
"Not much. We won't stay for dinner at Qingshuiyuan. We'll go straight back to Courtyard No. 15."
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, you have to greet both sets of parents.
Li Shuhua was somewhat flattered as her daughter and son-in-law arrived with bags and packages to wish her a Happy New Year. She quickly wiped her hands clean and accepted the gifts from them with a smile.
"You're here, why bring so much stuff? Mom has everything you need. Come sit in the living room and I'll prepare lunch for you right away."
"Mom, no need. He has to go back to the hospital for his shift soon and he's in a hurry."
Li Shuhua paused, turned around, glanced at her son-in-law standing behind Lin Yue, nodded and smiled, "That's true, being a doctor is indeed tough, there are no holidays, but no matter how busy you are, you should take care of your health."
Song Yunzheng nodded. "Yes."
Before leaving, she insisted on stuffing two oranges into Lin Yue's arms so they could take them and eat them on the way.
On the way back to Courtyard No. 15, we passed some scenic spots and saw quite a few tourists. Indeed, many people were taking advantage of the Spring Festival holiday to travel. The number of tourists at this time was much less than during the peak season.
Lin Yue shifted to a more comfortable position, leaning against the car window and watching the passersby. She inadvertently caught sight of a young couple pushing a stroller behind the tour guide, and she couldn't help but exclaim, "What a happy family!"
Song Yunzheng followed her gaze and asked, "Want to go out and play?"
"But you don't have time," Lin Yue sighed almost imperceptibly.
Song Yunzheng was slightly taken aback, then smiled helplessly, "Want to go to the beach?"
"think."
“I own a hot spring hotel that is located by the sea and has a sea view.”
Lin Yue suddenly sat up straight, looking at him with a face full of joy, "Are you coming with me?"
"Yunxi can accompany you for a few days first. After I finish what I'm doing, I'll take you on a proper trip so you can have a great time, okay?"
The hope that had just been ignited was instantly extinguished, and Lin Yue leaned back dejectedly, "Fine..."
Song Yunzheng freed one hand and gently pinched her cheek. "Don't be sad. We're leaving tomorrow. Let Yunxi bring a few friends to keep you company."
After dropping Lin Yue off at Courtyard No. 15, he rushed to the hospital and used his free hand to put on Bluetooth and make a call to Yun Xi.
"Hey, bro, what do you want?" His hoarse voice was heavy with sleepiness.
Yunxi had stayed up almost all night yesterday, so she was extremely sleepy. If she hadn't seen the words "Big Brother" on the caller ID, she wouldn't have answered! She was disturbing her peaceful sleep.
"We're leaving tomorrow to accompany Lin Yue to Huihai for a week. You can bring whoever you want. I only have one request: keep an eye on your sister-in-law."
"What?" Yunxi woke up instantly and jumped out of bed.
