Comrade Lao Du looked at the two people's embarrassed expressions and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"What? Looks like you two forgot about Kiki?"
"hey-hey……"
"hey-hey……"
Li Dewen and Xiami laughed at the same time, but their smiles were so awkward.
"Student Xiao Du?"
Du Chen, who was watching a show, was suddenly called by Comrade Lao Du.
"Hey, I'm here!"
Du Chen blurted out without thinking.
"Who asked if you were there? You're such a grown man standing here and I can't tell if you're there or not?"
Comrade Lao Du looked at Du Chen like he was a fool. What happened to this kid? He was usually quite bright and clear-headed, why was he so stupid now?
"Hey, I was distracted. Dad, please say it again."
"I'm asking you, have you prepared anything for Kiki?"
Comrade Lao Du did not keep Du Chen in suspense and asked him directly.
"We've prepared it. There are fireworks and firecrackers prepared for Kiki in the trunk of Brother Li's car!"
Du Chen quickly replied that he was also confused just now.
"Du Chen, you prepared some for Kiki? I was wondering why you bought so many fireworks, more than me and Xiami combined."
Only then did Li Dewen understand why there were so many fireworks.
"Just buy it. Okay, give Kiki a call. It's almost time, just in time for dinner. By the way, Xiao Li, where are your wives?"
"Oh no! I was so busy buying cannons that I forgot to notify them!"
Li Dewen slapped his thigh and remembered this matter. After returning home after lunch, he called his girlfriend and said that they would have dinner together in the evening and he would pick her up in the afternoon. If Comrade Lao Du had not asked about it, he would have completely forgotten about this matter.
"What are you waiting for? Go pick up your wife!"
Comrade Lao Du looked at the unreliable Du Chen and the other two, and didn't understand how they could make their business so big.
"Wait, take down the gun first, or there will be no room to sit!"
Du Chen reminded Li Dewen and Xiami who were about to run away.
Li Dewen and Xiami slapped their foreheads again, and they hurriedly unloaded the extra fireworks to the eyewear store. They got in the car and left. If they were any later, they were afraid that their wives would get angry.
"These two people are really unreliable!"
Looking at the two people walking away, Du Chen muttered something, and when Comrade Lao Du heard Du Chen's muttering, he glanced sideways. The most important thing for a person is to have self-knowledge. He himself is not reliable, and he dares to say anything about Li Dewen and Xiami.
After Li Dewen and Xiami left, Du Chen, Du Bin, Ding Miaomiao, Lao Du and Ding Miaomiao, together with others, carried fireworks and firecrackers into the optical shop.
"Second brother?"
Comrade Lao Du called out Du Chen hesitantly, but seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Hey, Dad, what's going on?"
Du Chen was carrying fireworks and answered Comrade Lao Du without raising his head.
"Well, I feel like you've gone a little too far this year?"
Although he hesitated for a moment, Comrade Lao Du still spoke out his true feelings, and Lao Ding on the side nodded in agreement. He also felt that Du Chen had gone a bit too far this year, spending money like water during this period. However, he had no position to educate Du Chen, so he could only remain silent. But after hearing what Comrade Lao Du said, he breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that Comrade Lao Du could find out, otherwise he would have to talk to Comrade Lao Du in private.
After hearing what Comrade Lao Du said, Du Chen was silent for a moment.
"Okay, Dad, I understand. I will pay attention next time!"
"I'm glad you noticed it. I was just reminding you."
Comrade Lao Du thought about it for a while and didn't say anything more. He just reminded Du Chen. It was good that Du Chen knew it. He believed that Du Chen would reflect on it himself.
"Well, I understand, Dad. The main reason is that I told my old secret this year, so I felt happy. So I thought of spending some money to have a lively New Year."
Du Chen explained briefly.
"Okay, I won't say anymore. Just use the scale in your heart."
Comrade Lao Du finished speaking and continued to move the fireworks in front of him. On the other hand, Lao Ding looked at the father and son in surprise and said a few words. Is that it? Everything is fine?
When it was getting dark, Li Dewen drove back with Xiami, Kiki and of course the two hostesses in the car.
"Brother Du! Brother Ding! Hello!"
It was the first time that Li Dewen and Xiami's partner met Comrade Lao Du and Lao Ding. Although they were both Jia Xiaomin's colleagues, it was also the first time they met.
"Hello, hello! Come inside and sit down!"
Comrade Lao Du invited the two to sit inside for a while.
"Xiao Li, Xiao Wang, come here!"
As soon as she entered the eyewear store, Jia Xiaomin saw the two people.
"Sister! Happy New Year! I wish you a happy new year in advance!"
When Li Yu and Wang Xiaomin saw an acquaintance, they immediately felt much more relaxed and greeted Jia Xiaomin with a smile in advance.
"Haha, same as before! Come and sit down!"
As she spoke, Jia Xiaomin invited the two to sit on the sofa. Ren Surong also came down from the second floor with some fruit. Several women were chatting together, while Comrade Lao Du and the others went to the other side to chat.
"Chenchen, we're going back to the living area tomorrow, right?"
The adults were chatting together, and the children also gathered together. Gu Yue was thinking about returning to the living area and couldn't wait to ask Du Chen.
"If you want to go back, go back. I'm not stopping you!"
Du Chen glanced at Gu Yue, but he didn't want to follow Gu Yue's thoughts.
"How am I supposed to go back by myself? Besides, what's the point of going back by myself?"
Gu Yue still didn't give up.
"Go back to find Fourth Auntie and your cousin. If all else fails, you can always go find Wang Luqi. Why are you asking me?"
"I can't go back by myself, can you take me back?"
"Why can't you go back? There are minibuses at the small commodity market. It only takes half an hour to get back! If it really doesn't work, ask your brother Bin and sister Miaomiao to take you back to the living area!"
"It's mainly because it's boring for me to go back alone! Why don't you come with me? I even bought a gift today!"
"A gift for me? What is it? Let me see!"
Du Chen became interested when he heard about the gift and asked Gu Yue with interest.
"What gift did you buy? You're being sentimental! I bought this for Wang Luqi!"
Gu Yue spat at Du Chen, indicating that the gift had nothing to do with him.
"What does buying a gift for Wang Luqi have to do with me?"
Hearing that it was not a gift for him, Du Chen immediately lost interest.
"I bought this gift for Wang Luqi in your name. When the time comes, I'll tell Wang Luqi that this is a gift you bought for her, but you were embarrassed to give it to her, so you asked me to pass it on for you!"
Gu Yue spoke of his plans with a smile on his face.
"What gift did you prepare?"
Du Chen squinted his eyes and looked at Gu Yue. He thought that Gu Yue must be up to no good. Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao, who had been listening, also looked at Gu Yue curiously, wanting to know what gift Gu Yue bought for Du Chen.
"I can't tell you this!"
