The New Year's Eve dinner was very lively, but Fu Shiqin, the family's number one foodie, was the first to put down his chopsticks, which was unprecedented.
"Excuse me, I have to go pick up my girlfriend. You guys enjoy your meal."
After saying that, he grabbed his coat and car keys and ran off.
The Fu family all hoped that he would get married soon, so they naturally tacitly approved of his actions.
His departure did not affect the liveliness of the New Year's Eve dinner at all. The meal lasted for more than two hours, and the dishes were cold before the dinner ended.
As soon as Fu Shiyi finished eating, he went to his room to video chat with his girlfriend, Ding Dongdong.
Fu Shengying and Kaman Dorrance continued their unfinished game of chess, while Gu Weiwei and Fu Hanzheng played with the children for a while before taking them to take a bath.
Mrs. Fu felt sorry for them, saying they must be tired from coming all this way, and wanted to help them rest. However, Gu Weiwei and Fu Hanzheng hadn't seen their child in a long time, so they politely declined her help.
The two gave them a bath, changed them into their pajamas, and put them back on their crib in the children's room.
Fu Hanzheng thoughtfully found them storybooks and sat on a small stool to tell them stories.
Fortunately, the two little ones usually have a regular schedule, so they fell asleep obediently after a short while of storytelling.
The two left the children's room. Fu Shengying and Kaman Dorrance had just finished their game of chess, with the veteran Fu Shengying narrowly winning.
However, the two were still enjoying themselves.
"One more round, one more round," Fu Shengying said.
"Alright, there'll be plenty of time later. They've come all this way and haven't had a proper rest. Let them get some rest." Madam Fu interrupted Fu Shengying and said with a smile to Kaman Dorrance, "Your room is arranged on the first floor. Go and take a look."
They used to live on the first floor with the old lady, while Fu Shiqin and his family would have their room on the second floor.
However, in order for Han Zheng and Wei Wei to take care of the child, the master bedroom has now been given to them.
Kaman Dorrance is in poor health and has difficulty walking, so his room was also arranged on the first floor.
Kaman Dorrance went to check on him in the room. Perhaps worried that he might not sleep well in the new environment, the room was decorated exactly like his home, with even the decorations, sheets, and pillows being identical.
"Thank you very much, you've gone to so much trouble."
"Then you should get some rest. If you need anything, there's a bell by your bedside. Just press it and a maid will come." Madam Fu pointed to the bell.
Kaman bowed slightly. "Thank you so much."
Madam Fu and Fu Shengying left and closed the door for him.
In previous years, our family would stay up all night on New Year's Eve, but this year Fu Hanzheng and Gu Weiwei took a flight of more than ten hours to return, so our family gave up on staying up all night.
Seeing that Gu Weiwei and Fu Hanzheng were still in the living room, Madam Fu urged them on.
"You must be tired after a long day, so get some rest."
"Dad, Mom, Grandma, you should get some rest too." Gu Weiwei said goodnight to everyone before returning to her room with Fu Hanzheng. She changed into her pajamas and climbed into bed.
Fu Hanzheng took a shower and came out, intending to call her to take a shower, but found that she had already fallen asleep on the quilt.
He tucked the person into the blanket before changing into his pajamas and getting into bed.
As soon as he lay down, the person, still half asleep, instinctively snuggled into his arms, snuggled comfortably, and fell asleep.
He reached out and smoothed the hair on the side of her face, then lowered his head and kissed her forehead, gently saying goodnight.
Goodnight, my Mrs. Fu.
Even though we've been together day and night for so many years, she still can't get enough of looking at her or loving her enough.
