"Okay, what to play?"
He smiled at her and said, "Phoenix seeks phoenix."
His eyes were burning. Shu Shiyu reached out to cover his eyes. His breathing became disordered and his heartbeat slowed. "You look like you want to eat me."
"Yeah." Yu Tongchen took her outer robe and put it on her based on his memory, then pulled her hand away and kissed her palm. "After I express my feelings, I never hide my thoughts."
He led her to sit in front of the zither and kissed her blushing face. "When I see you, my beloved, I can't help but have some romantic thoughts."
Just her standing there was enough to make his heart flutter.
"I like Qingqing very much and want to be close to her."
Yu Tongchen hugged her from behind, his chin resting on her shoulder, "I wanted to hold you like this when I first taught you to play the piano."
"Now I have achieved my wish."
Shu Shiyu tilted her head and kissed the corner of his lips.
Yu Tongchen smiled and said, "I'll play one section and Qingqing will take over the other, okay?"
"good."
He pressed the strings with his long fingers and tested the sound, then Yu Tongchen plucked the strings. Every sound expressed admiration and love.
When it came to the slow part, Shu Shiyu continued playing the piano.
When the last sound of the zither fell, Yu Tongchen held her hand, his eyes soft, "My dear, the love between mandarin ducks lasts for a thousand years, and the harmony between the zither and the harp lasts for a hundred years."
"The joy will never end, and we will never forget each other." Shu Shiyu tightened her clasped fingers and said softly.
Yu Tongchen's breathing stagnated. "After bringing grandpa here, shall we go through the six rituals?"
"Yeah." Shu Shiyu poked the back of his hand, "You're not shy at all."
"You'll have to call me that sooner or later. Could it be that what Qingqing said about marrying me is not true?"
"I can't argue with you."
He was good at kissing her and talking to her.
"When Qingqing says something to me, I will never say anything back. I won't talk back."
"You better be."
Yu Tongchen held her and sat quietly for a long time. When she felt sleepy, he carried her to the bed.
…
On New Year's Eve, it was snowing heavily. After taking Shu Shi to paste up new Spring Festival couplets, Yu Tongchen took her to warm themselves by the fire, and then had the New Year's Eve dinner with Meng Ziqian.
Next to them, Bai Tong and Zi Ling also set up a table and stayed up together to celebrate the New Year.
After eating the New Year’s Eve dinner, Bai Tong and Bai Xi played with firecrackers in the snow, while Shu Shi and Yu Tongchen leaned against each other, watching with great interest.
Yu Tongchen glanced at the joy in her eyes, hugged her and said, "I'll take you to set off the fireworks."
She suddenly turned to look at him, her eyes full of hope, "Really?"
"How could it be false?" As he said that, Yu Tongchen took her hand and led her to the yard. When he left, he took the fire starter placed beside him.
Shang Lu brought a box, and Yu Tongchen took out a firework from the box. He asked her to stand there, and he took the fire starter to light it, then strode back to her.
The flames burst out, the lamp trees shine with thousands of lights, and the flower flames bloom on seven branches.
Shu Shiyu watched it grow from prosperity to nothingness, with fireworks reflected in his eyes.
"Go and try it." Yu Tongchen took another one and placed it on the ground, then handed the fire starter to her.
"Okay." Shu Shiyu squatted next to the fireworks, stretched out a lighter to light it, and ran away quickly after it was lit.
They ordered several in a row, and only after she had enough fun did Yu Tongchen take her back.
When I returned to the living room, Meng Ziqian had already gone to play with others by throwing firecrackers.
Yu Tongchen touched her slightly cold cheek and said, "There is no lunch break today. Go to sleep for a while. I will wake you up when you are almost up. Otherwise, you will not be able to hold on."
"I'll stay with you in the house."
Shu Shiyu hugged him and said, "Next year, I will wait until the new year starts before going to sleep."
"Okay." Yu Tongchen kissed her lips.
