Xiao Duo, who was being thought of, was feeling a bit down after receiving a New Year's greeting call from Han Yi.
Knowing that Han Yi called their home looking for Xiao Duo, her family is now keeping a close eye on her.
Among them, Li Huai's face was the most serious.
"I remember, this kid used to chase after you back in school, didn't he? Didn't he already make it clear?"
Before Xiaoduo could answer, Zhao Qinglan sighed. "You don't know yet, she's studying abroad at the same school as Xiaoduo."
"What!" Li Huai exclaimed in surprise.
“Dad, it’s not what you think. I have nothing to do with him. I never expected to run into him again after going abroad. Don’t worry, I really don’t like him at all. If it weren’t for the fact that we are from the same hometown and alumni, I would never have had any contact with him.”
"real?"
"More real than gold."
"That's good." Li Huai breathed a sigh of relief.
His daughter is now even further away, and he's really worried that if anything happens to her, they won't be able to help her.
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's continue watching the Spring Festival Gala. Today is New Year's Eve." Xiao Duo quickly changed the subject.
The family was finally able to liven up again.
They stayed up all night past midnight before washing up and going to sleep.
Because of Li Zhenhua's passing, they don't need to visit other people's homes on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and no one will come to visit them. Therefore, everyone can sleep in a little longer in the morning and doesn't need to get up early.
But I couldn't fall asleep even if I wanted to, because people started setting off firecrackers at five o'clock.
Zhao Qinglan stayed in bed until after six o'clock before getting up.
Li Huai, who always got up early, didn't feel anything.
The second child, Xiaoduo, and the third child also stayed in their warm blankets and refused to come out.
It wasn't until Zhao Qinglan finished preparing breakfast and called the children out to eat that they finally arrived.
They don't need to pay New Year's visits or receive those who do, which saves them a lot of trouble.
After breakfast, everyone was free to do whatever they wanted.
Erwa smiled happily when he received his New Year's money, while Sanwa and Xiaoduo looked down on him.
According to custom, their family cannot visit other people's homes until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. They spend these days enjoying themselves at home, watching TV and playing cards.
Zhao Qinglan also joined the children and had quite a bit of fun.
The capital city.
Many people came to the Zhou family to pay New Year's greetings, and they were all quite surprised to see Zhou Yunting, the eldest grandson of the Zhou family, return.
However, Zhou Yunting remained indifferent to everyone, maintaining only basic politeness and courtesy.
There were also people who knew he was single and were eager to introduce him to someone.
After all, Zhou Yunting is a high-quality candidate, both in terms of his own qualities and the background of his family.
However, Zhou Yunting rejected all the suggestions directly, saying that he would continue to go abroad after the New Year and had no plans to find a partner in China.
What are others supposed to say about this?
When Lan Song first arrived, he accompanied Zhou Yunting to visit the Zhou family and say hello. Soon after, he went to stay at a hotel on his own.
He has indeed been having a very comfortable time these days, visiting various attractions in Beijing and enjoying local delicacies.
At first, Zhou Yunting would worry about Lan Song, but after realizing that Lan Song was doing very well, he visited less often.
Zhou Yunting was handsome, and even though he refused introductions and blind dates, some girls still took a liking to him when he was brought to the Zhou family to pay New Year's visits.
Whenever he walks around the compound, someone will come up and talk to him.
Annoyed him so much that he rushed to the hotel to find Lan Song.
"Have you had enough fun? Let's buy our plane tickets and go."
Lan Song glanced at him. "Have you completed your mission?"
"I can leave anytime."
"Alright then, we'll leave in a few days."
Han Yi even made a special trip to the Zhou family to see Zhou Yunting, intending to take him out to meet his old acquaintances, but unfortunately Zhou Yunting was not interested and refused.
The Han family even had a daughter they wanted to introduce to Zhou Yunting. After learning that Zhou Yunting had rejected everyone, some members of the Han family asked Han Yi if Zhou Yunting already had a girlfriend in the US, or if there was some other problem.
According to Han Yi's current understanding, Zhou Yunting seems to be single, but it doesn't seem right to say that there's a problem with him, so he can only gloss over it and say that he and Zhou Yunting aren't that close.
Han Yi's family also inquired about his love life after his return.
Han Yi only mysteriously said that he was pursuing a girl who was also studying abroad.
His mother was very concerned about the girl's family background. She felt a little more at ease after hearing that the girl's family was a good match for them. She also told her son to make sure he could see the girl's character clearly, and that his family couldn't accept her if she wasn't a good person.
Han Yi hadn't even caught up with her yet, so he could only praise Xiao Duo's virtues, making his mother a little jealous even before she had met her.
Han Yi sighed, recalling Xiao Duo's cold attitude when he called her that day. He wondered when he would finally win her over.
He hadn't even left yet when Wang Anni unexpectedly made an international call to him.
When he left the US, Wang Anni asked him for his home address and phone number in China.
After finding out where Han Yi lived, Wang Anni became even more interested in him.
Han Yi was surprised but also quite happy to receive Wang Anni's call.
On the one hand, they are indifferent and ignore him, but on the other hand, they care about him and are very enthusiastic.
Although Han Yi felt that he was currently very focused and only wanted to pursue Xiao Duo, he didn't realize that his relationship with Wang Anni was indeed getting closer and closer.
The happy and warm time at home always seems so short. Xiaoduo felt like she hadn't done anything yet, and she was already leaving again.
First, I went back to the provincial capital with my mother to see my maternal grandmother and second aunt, and then they went to Beijing.
Han Yi originally wanted to leave with Xiao Duo again, but due to Zhao Qinglan's deliberate interference, it didn't work out.
