Chapter 188 I'll dance with you alone
It was my first New Year at Gu’s house and it was very lively.
On the first day of the new year, when Lin Youning woke up from his nap, there were many guests in the old house.
She listened to the noise downstairs, picked up her phone and sent a message to Gu Huaichen: [Are you downstairs? ]
Gu Huaichen replied quickly: [Yes, I'll come up later. ]
Lin Youning blinked: [Shouldn’t I go down? ]
Gu Huaichen: [I came to see the old man. Do you want to come down and meet them? ]
Lin Youning thought about it and said honestly: "I don't really want to."
Gu Huaichen: [Then continue to sleep. ]
He knew Lin Youning very well, knew that she didn't like such scenes, and also knew about her "social phobia" attribute.
Gu Huaichen never asked Lin Youning to be good at dancing. If she didn't like it, then she wouldn't contact him. He wouldn't force her.
Seeing what Gu Huaichen said, Lin Youning curled her lips silently. She thought for a moment and got up first. Whether to go downstairs or not is another matter, but she had to clean herself up.
She greeted the first day of the new year with a brand new look.
As soon as I finished washing up and sat down at the dressing table, Gu Huaichen came up.
The two looked at each other, Gu Huaichen bent down and kissed the corner of her lips, "Morning."
Lin Youning chuckled, "Morning."
Gu Huaichen accompanied her in the room while she put on makeup. When she went downstairs, some of the guests who came to visit the old man had already left. The ones who were left were all those who were relatively close to the old man.
The old man introduced Lin Youning to everyone.
Lin Youning had a very fulfilling first day of the new year.
On the second day of the Chinese New Year, Lin Youning and Gu Huaichen returned to the Lin family together. She could pretend that Lin Mingqi didn't exist, but Zhao Tinglan couldn't just ignore him.
Just as Lin Youning expected, Lin Mingqi was not at home.
After confirmation, she felt relieved but also sad.
No matter how much Lin Youning thought about it, she didn't want to let herself be immersed in sadness. However, when she looked at Zhao Tinglan, she always felt that something was wrong.
"Mom," Lin Youning looked at Zhao Tinglan when Gu Huaichen went to the yard to answer the phone, "Have you lost weight?"
Hearing this, Zhao Tinglan raised her eyes and looked at her, "Is there?"
She smiled gently at Lin Youning, "No, it must be your illusion."
"You look much worse." Lin Youning said, "Have you not had a good rest recently?"
Zhao Tinglan: “No.”
She smiled and said, "Maybe I was a little tired during the Chinese New Year. I haven't lost much weight."
She comforted Lin Youning, "Don't worry, I'm living a good life every day."
Lin Youning didn't say anything.
Zhao Tinglan raised her hands and hugged her, whispering, "I'm really fine."
"..." Lin Youning looked at her for a moment, then turned away and said, "I don't want to repeat the same thing anymore."
She pursed her lips and said, "If you say it's okay, then it's okay."
She really couldn't convince Zhao Tinglan, nor could she beat Zhao Tinglan.
From the beginning to the end, Lin Youning didn't understand why she had to stick with this marriage that was rotten to the core.
After having lunch at the Lin family, Lin Youning and Gu Huaichen left.
Watching the two people leaving, Zhao Tinglan stopped holding on. She raised her hand to hold the door frame, and before she could say anything else, she began to fall down.
"Madam." The servant hurried to her side.
Zhao Tinglan's face turned pale, and she grabbed her hand and warned, "Don't... don't tell Ningning."
The servant had no choice but to agree: "Okay, I understand."
“…”
As the car drove out of the yard, Lin Youning suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her chest. She frowned slightly and glanced at Huaichen, "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"A little bit." Lin Youning frowned and said, "Maybe I didn't sleep well these few days?"
She went to bed late these two days.
Gu Huaichen understood, "I'll go back and ask the doctor to come and take a look later."
"No need," Lin Youning laughed, "Why should I see a doctor during the New Year? I'm not sick."
Gu Huaichen looked at her.
"It's really okay," Lin Youning breathed a sigh of relief, "I just felt a little uncomfortable just now, but I'm fine now."
Having said that, Gu Huaichen was still not reassured.
After returning home, he still called the family doctor to come and give Lin Youning a simple examination.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with her body, Gu Huaichen felt a little relieved.
In the following days, Gu Huaichen and Lin Youning visited relatives at Gu's place. Actually, the number of relatives that Gu's family would visit during the New Year was not that many.
It took only two days to complete the trip.
On the fifth day of the Chinese New Year, Gu Huaichen and Lin Youning returned to Yun Gu Mansion from the old house. With three days of vacation left, the two wanted to enjoy their own world.
On the first day back at Yungu Mansion, the two stayed at home and did not go anywhere.
On the evening of the sixth day of the New Year, the two of them went out and went to the bar at Yin Jin's call.
During the New Year holidays, Lin Youning had a really happy time.
Except for the occasional bit of depression, everything is fine.
After the holiday, both of them have to return to their normal work.
Gu Huaichen was busy at the beginning of the year, and so was Lin Youning. The theater had performances in other cities in March, and Lin Youning needed to work overtime to rehearse.
For the next month, Lin Youning was immersed in rehearsals and was extremely busy.
Only after the performance ended successfully did Lin Youning get a break.
It was just that Gu Huaichen did not go to watch the performance in person this time. As luck would have it, on the day of Lin Youning's performance, Gu Huaichen was still abroad dealing with an emergency at the company and had no way to rush back.
Lin Youning herself didn't care, but Gu Huaichen felt a little guilty and thought it was his own problem.
For this, Lin Youning comforted him for a long time.
“…”
After comforting herself to the point of sacrificing herself, Lin Youning realized what was happening and asked the person who was holding her, "Did you do that on purpose?"
Gu Huaichen: “Hmm?”
His voice was still a little hoarse, but he sounded very charming.
Lin Youning's ears went numb, and she glanced at him angrily, "You know it yourself."
"..." Gu Huaichen laughed and tightened his arms around her, "How did I do that on purpose?"
Lin Youning: "Play pitiful and ask me to coax you."
In this matter, she was obviously the one who suffered more. But she ended up comforting Gu Huaichen.
Gu Huaichen understood what she meant, bent down and kissed her cheek and said, "I'm not pretending to be pitiful."
He paused, "I really want to see you dance."
He liked the way Lin Youning shined on stage. She was confident and beautiful, which Gu Huaichen rarely saw. Lin Youning like that really attracted him.
Hearing this, Lin Youning reluctantly said, "Really?"
Gu Huaichen hooked her fingers and squeezed them gently, "When have I ever lied to you?"
I have never cheated.
Lin Youning was quiet for a moment, thought for a while and said, "Then on your birthday this year, I will dance for you alone?"
Hearing this, Gu Huaichen raised his eyebrows: "Do you mean what you say?"
Lin Youning glanced at him with amusement, "When did I ever stop keeping my word?"
Gu Huaichen didn't dare to answer.
But the dance was settled. However, Gu Huaichen's birthday was still early. His birthday was in winter, and it was still spring. Lin Youning still had a lot of time to prepare.
