Chapter 207 I Can’t Leave My Wife Alone During the New Year
Gu Yan didn't know that Lu Ye's heart was bubbling with sour bubbles.
She hummed and said, "When I went to the bookstore to buy books earlier, I happened to see Captain Bai's mother feeling unwell and fainted in the snow. I carried her out and then took her to the hospital with the others. Captain Bai must have sent me a lot of things to thank me these days."
After hearing this, Lu Ye's sour feeling in his heart dissipated a lot.
His frown relaxed a little, "Aunt Xie has not been in good health."
"Yeah." Gu Yan lowered her head and turned Lu Ye's coat over again. She suddenly didn't want to talk about Xie Luan anymore, worried that her emotions would fluctuate too strongly.
She said, "Lu Ye, have you completed your mission? Today is New Year's Eve, aren't you going... home?"
"I just finished reporting to my boss, and I can't fly back now." Lu Ye reached out and tucked a strand of Gu Yan's bangs behind her ear. "Besides, can I leave my wife here alone for the New Year?"
Seeing Captain Lu about to start flirting again, Gu Yan pursed her lips and said, "I'll go get some dumplings and put them in the pot. You can eat some noodles first."
"I'll go out and get it. My dear, don't go out. It's cold outside." After Lu Ye said that, he put on Gu Yan's warm coat, put on his big-toed leather shoes, and went out.
As a result, he brought back a bunch of things in a short while.
Gu Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "This is a dumpling. You should put the others on the windowsill outside. They will melt if you put them inside."
"Okay." Lu Ye immediately turned around and went out again.
Gu Yan took two bowls and poured out the noodles, along with a small plate of pickled radish and a plate of sliced sausages.
This New Year’s Eve dinner was actually a bit monotonous, but for Gu Yan, it was very rich.
More importantly, the person who accompanied her for dinner was... Lu Ye.
The two of them were eating around a small table. Lu Ye asked Gu Yan about her review progress. For a moment, the atmosphere was quiet and gentle.
At this moment, the sound of firecrackers suddenly rang out outside, crackling and banging, breaking the tranquility of the night in an instant.
Lu Ye quickly started eating his second bowl of noodles. He said, "We're not allowed to set off firecrackers in this courtyard, but there are many people setting off firecrackers outside. After we finish eating, I'll take you out to see them."
Gu Yan was a little moved by this proposal, but...
"You just came back from a mission, aren't you tired?"
"It's never tiring to do anything with my wife. Besides," Lu Ye paused, then raised his head, his eyes twinkling with the same light as the stars, "every minute and every second with my wife is a pleasure."
Gu Yan: ...
She recalled carefully, and it seemed that Lu Ye in her previous life was not so good at sweet talk. However, the two of them were not in a relationship at that time, and there was no opportunity for Lu Ye to say sweet words.
For some reason, Gu Yan remembered what Lu Ye had said before. He had been saving these sweet words for more than twenty years.
After the two of them finished their meal, Gu Yan was about to wash the dishes, but Lu Ye immediately stopped her and said, "Yan Yan, is your hand feeling better?"
"It's almost healed. It's okay now."
"Don't wash the dishes yet. Go put on your coat, scarf and hat. I'll take you out for a look."
Gu Yan thought about it and decided that she could wash the dishes when she got back, so she didn't insist. She nodded, turned around, went into the house, and put on her coat, hat, and scarf.
Lu Ye had it easier. He just put on his coat and tied his scarf.
