Chapter 191 The best gift this year

Wen Zhixian was originally lying on top of him, but when he stood up, he stumbled and was forced to sit up as well.

"It's so late, forget it."

"But we'd be happy if we went now, wouldn't we?" Qi Yanjing didn't give her a chance to refute and patted her waist: "Go get dressed."

Wen Zhixian saw from his expression that he seemed serious, so he got up and went to the cloakroom.

I put on a sweater and thought how cold it would be at night, so I decisively put on a down jacket and wrapped myself up tightly.

Qi Yanjing put on his black woolen coat after making a phone call to the western suburbs.

-

After getting in the car, Wen Zhixian asked, "Where are we going?"

"Western Suburbs, where you can set off fireworks."

She paused, "I wonder if Zhaoli is free."

Qi Yanjing responded: "Then ask."

Wen Zhixian took out his cell phone from his pocket and sent a message to Qin Zhaoli: [Come to the western suburbs to set off fireworks? ]

Qin Zhaoli sent back a photo not long after. She clicked on it and saw that it must have been taken secretly by Zhaoli...

Sitting at the top of the photo are her grandfather, uncle, aunt, and cousin.

Qin Zhaoli: [I still have to compete with them in wits and courage. I can't go today. ]

There is also an emoticon pack that says "Seeing through everything".

Wen Zhixian: [Okay, touch it.]

She turned off her phone, and Qi Yanjing asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"Well, her father has several brothers and sisters, all of whom are ambitious. And her cousin who always advocates not competing or fighting, ends up secretly bullying her. Her family is really a big melting pot. Even a dog that enters it has to be very careful."

"But her position has always been stable, including Song Kairui and Gu Yuchen. Although my brother can't get along with them, everyone knows that they are part of the same system."

Qi Yanjing understood that their families were old friends, and it would be more stable if they could form an alliance through marriage, a Qin-Song alliance or a Gu-Wen alliance. It was estimated that their elders also thought so at the beginning. Although it was free love, this was the situation that the elders wanted to see.

The two chatted all the way and stopped the car in the western suburbs manor. Perhaps Qi Yanjing had previously told the people here that all the fireworks were already set out when they arrived.

Qi Yanjing held her hand and walked up the hill. The moment they stood on the hill, fireworks bloomed in the night sky, and in an instant it was daylight, with trees in flames and silver flowers.

Wen Zhihan quietly watched the fireworks one after another.

The fireworks faded and rose again. She suddenly smiled and said, "If you are seriously ill, call me out to set off fireworks at night."

Qi Yanjing raised his eyebrows slightly, "You're the one who scolds me and comes out to play with me at the same time. Is that you?"

They looked at each other and smiled.

After setting off fireworks for fifteen minutes, Wen Zhihan felt his hands were frozen. As soon as he finished setting off the fireworks, he pulled Qi Yanjing back.

"Why are you rushing to the next game?" Qi Yanjing was held by her hand and trotted after her.

His legs were long, and one step of his was equal to two steps of hers.

"My feet are cold." She stood there motionless, holding Qi Yanjing's hand tightly. Is he a human furnace? How come he doesn't feel the slightest bit of cold?

Wen Zhixian returned to the car and turned on the heater. He shuddered slightly when he felt the warmth, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, "He's alive."

Qi Yanjing raised the corners of his lips and then started the car to go home.

-

It was already 11:40 pm when I got home.

Twenty minutes until the next day.

Qi Yanjing took out the clothes from the suitcase and hung them up, then returned to the living room. As soon as he came in, he heard a voice from the TV: "Let's make dumplings together!"

He sat down next to Wen Zhixian and said, "It seems like I've been making dumplings for several years."

Wen Zhixian couldn't help but laugh, "Every year, we have to make dumplings in skits, for all kinds of occasions."

"What do you do at this time every year?" Wen Zhihan sat cross-legged on the sofa, cracking melon seeds out of boredom. He turned to look at Qi Yanjing and asked.

"This is the time to lie in bed and try to get sleepy."

Wen Zhixian threw the melon seed shells into the trash can and asked, "What next?"

"I usually find that I'm not sleepy, and then I start to get irritable. I think this is not good, so I need to find something to divert my attention, so I sit up and start studying."

Wen Zhihan's eyes widened. He really didn't want to roll up his sleeves, but he was forced to do so.

"Aren't you spending New Year's Eve with your family?"

Qi Yanjing: "I will go back on New Year's Eve and leave at night. Someone will come to visit our home the next day. My parents don't want others to see me."

Wen Zhixian moved closer to him. She was afraid that he would think of something unhappy if she mentioned this, so she quickly changed the subject: "Wow, you actually slept at home all day today."

Qi Yanjing paused. This tone...

"Are you flattering me?"

Wen Zhixian nodded.

"It's just like a kindergarten teacher praising the children."

Wen Zhihan complained in his heart, he was just like a child, hiding away when he was sad.

The New Year countdown has already started on TV.

Suddenly Qi Yanjing stood up and went to the bedroom. Wen Zhixian had several questions in his mind. What was he going to do?

Zero o'clock.

Wen Zhixian's phone rang several times. She turned on the phone and saw that Wen Huaixu had sent her a red envelope. She smiled and replied, "Thank you, brother."

Wen Huaixu asked: [You’re welcome. Where’s mine? ]

He didn't want to ask Wen Zhihan for a red envelope at all, he just wanted to see what she would do to him this year and see how she would make him laugh.

Wen Zhixian replied: [Wait. ]

Soon, Wen Zhixian sent him a red envelope with the words "Prince, please accept the red envelope."

Wen Huaixu: "..."

The next second, he took a screenshot and posted it on WeChat Moments, with the caption: [Hang me up. ]

Wen Zhixian was replying to the message when Qi Yanjing came back. She raised her head and asked, "Where have you been?"

Qi Yanjing took out a gift box and handed it to her: "Happy New Year."

Wen Zhihan was silent. She looked at Qi Yanjing and said, "You secretly prepared the gift without telling me."

Qi Yanjing curled his lips, "No, this was ordered some time ago, and I'm just giving it to you today."

Wen Zhixian took out a box from the drawer: "Fortunately, I was smart and prepared."

Now it was Qi Yanjing's turn to be stunned, and suddenly he chuckled.

"Thank you, my baby."

The best gift this year is obviously her.

-

She went to visit Gu's house with Qin Zhaoli and Song Kairui. Qi Yanjing went to his godfather's house and did not go with her.

Uncle Gu and Aunt Zhao knew they were coming and asked the kitchen to prepare their favorite dishes the day before.

When they arrived, Uncle Gu and Gu Yuchen were sitting in the front hall.

They put the gifts down, and Uncle Gu smiled and asked the servant to serve tea.

"Where's Aunt Zhao?" Wen Zhihan asked politely.

Before Uncle Gu could say anything, Gu Yuchen spoke first, "Knowing you were coming, my mother personally cooked a few dishes."

Song Kairui and Qin Zhaoli turned their heads to the left at the same time, and their eyes fell on Wen Zhixian.

She kept a smile on her face, and it was hard not to notice that her hanging hands were slowly clenched.

Song Kairui laughed and turned his head away.

Everyone knows that these dishes made by Aunt Zhao are definitely Zhixian’s favorites.
