Chapter 141: Feelings Gradually Heat Up, Happy New Year! (1/2)



Jiang Ning clicked on the picture and replied: 【It's so beautiful! It's a pity I won't be able to see the first snow in City A this year.】

After replying, Jiang Ning also took a photo and sent it to Shen Jingnian.

This is snow in Beijing. It's been snowing a lot in Beijing lately, but it doesn't feel as warm and welcoming as the snow in City A.

Jiang Ning actually sent him a picture.

Shen Jingnian was stunned for a moment, then clicked on the picture in disbelief.

The photo was taken by her standing in front of the window.

Her silhouette could be vaguely seen on the glass.

Click to enlarge the image.

Although the figure reflected in the glass was somewhat blurry, it was still possible to make out that she was wearing a loose, pink knitted sweater and a pair of white, fluffy bunny slippers.

She was somewhat adorable, a departure from her usual aloofness, and possessed a more down-to-earth charm.

Looking at her in the picture, Shen Jingnian's lips curled into a beautiful smile. He quickly clicked to save the image, and a passage from the book involuntarily came to mind:

The desire to share is the best confession.

After saving the image, Shen Jingnian replied to her: "Although I can't see the snow in City A in person, watching it online is just as good. I'll send you a video."

After saying that, he filmed Jiang Ning again.

I was filming a video when suddenly a dog's head popped up.

To be precise.

It should be Yun Haotian's head!

Shen Jingnian was startled.

Yun Haotian stared at Shen Jingnian and said in a cheeky tone, "Uncle, what are you doing? Is my future aunt checking up on me online, and you're filming a video to prove your innocence?"

Although Yun Haotian caught him red-handed, Shen Jingnian remained calm and composed, showing no sign of panic. "There was a sudden loss of signal inside, so I came out to check."

After saying that.

He calmly switched his phone to the work page.

Faced with such a brother-in-law, Yun Haotian couldn't doubt him at all, because he simply couldn't imagine that his brother-in-law, who was as aloof and unapproachable as snow on a high mountain, would report his schedule and share his daily life with a girl.

Yun Haotian glanced at the network cable bent under the weight of the snow and then said, "Oh, the snow probably affected the signal."

Shen Jingnian calmly put his phone back in his pocket. "What do you want from me?"

"Oh, that grandma asked me to ask you, is there anything you particularly want to eat for the New Year's Eve dinner tonight?" Yun Haotian's grandparents passed away three years ago, so for the past two years, the three of them have been coming to the Shen family to celebrate the New Year with Madam Shen and Shen Jingnian.

“No,” Shen Jingnian said.

"Oh." Yun Haotian nodded. "Then I understand."

After saying that, Yun Haotian seemed to remember something else, "By the way, Uncle, today is New Year's Eve, remember to send a WeChat message to Father Jiang to wish him a Happy New Year."

Sending New Year's greetings via WeChat?

Shen Jingnian parted his thin lips slightly, "I never do that kind of pretentious stuff."

Yun Haotian scratched his head.

That's true.

His uncle's current status.

He was always the one being greeted with New Year's greetings.

He has never taken the initiative to wish someone a Happy New Year.

"Uncle, although you don't like to take the initiative to wish others a Happy New Year, Father Jiang is, after all, your savior!"

Shen Jingnian frowned slightly, "If you want to send it, then send it."

"Oh," Yun Haotian didn't dare to say anything more, "Uncle, I'll go downstairs now."

"Go ahead." Shen Jingnian nodded slightly.

After Yun Haotian left, Shen Jingnian took out his phone from his pocket, reshot the video, and sent it to Jiang Ning.

The two chatted like that.

Before we knew it, it was already 6:30 in the evening.

Until Yun Haotian came upstairs to call Shen Jingnian downstairs for dinner.

"Dinner?" Shen Jingnian was taken aback. "Is it that late?"

When Shen Jingnian stopped typing, he realized that he could already hear the sounds of fireworks and firecrackers.

"Yeah, it's already 6:30." Seeing Shen Jingnian working so hard even on New Year's Eve, Yun Haotian couldn't help but complain, "Uncle, it's New Year's Eve and you don't even take a break. You're such a workaholic!"

Shen Jingnian continued, "You go downstairs first, I'll tidy up and then come back."

"Okay." Yun Haotian nodded slightly.

After Yun Haotian left, Shen Jingnian replied to Jiang Ning's last WeChat message on his computer, and then logged out of WeChat.

He picked up a black coat from the side, put it on, and then went downstairs.

Yun Haotian was setting off fireworks in the yard. "Uncle, look! This is the 'A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains' fireworks I bought. They look amazing when they go off!"

After saying that, Yun Haotian lit the fuse.

biu~

Beautiful fireworks exploded in the sky.

Shen Jingnian took out his phone from his pocket, took a video, and sent it to Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning was also preparing for her New Year's Eve dinner.

Seeing the fireworks Shen Jingnian sent, Jiang Ning was incredibly envious and replied to him:

Fireworks are what make the New Year's atmosphere special, but unfortunately they're banned in Beijing's urban areas, so we can only set off electronic firecrackers at home.

After replying, Jiang Ning also sent him a video of electronic fireworks.

When he saw the electronic fireworks being set off, Shen Jingnian couldn't help but chuckle.

When Yun Haotian turned around, he saw Shen Jingnian smiling.

Yun Haotian asked curiously, "Uncle, what are you laughing at?"

"I'm happy to celebrate the New Year today," Shen Jingnian said.

"What's there to be happy about when you're single? If I were you, I wouldn't even dare to come back for the New Year!" Old Madam Shen couldn't help but complain as she passed by Shen Jingnian.

Chen Jingnian: No, not at all.

It's 6:30 p.m.

The Shi family eats their New Year's Eve dinner on time.
