Chapter 283 New Year's Eve
There was no response from inside the room, so Chu Runrun pushed the door open cautiously. However, as soon as she stepped into the room, she was dragged inside.
Ning Xuan held Chu Runrun's hands with one hand, and placed the other hand on the back of her head. Their noses touched, their eyes met, and his warm breath sprayed on her face. Chu Runrun's face turned red instantly.
"Brother, you're not asleep!"
"Someone is thinking about my wife. How can I sleep?" Ning Xuan said gritting his teeth.
Chu Ruanruan lowered her head guiltily: "I didn't know that Brother Qi Chong would suddenly give me a gift."
"So you're completely unaware of his feelings? Huh?"
Ning Xuan stretched out the last syllable, and his low and hoarse voice made Chu Runrun's bones almost go weak.
"I... I know a little bit, but that was when I was a child. I didn't expect that he still hasn't given up even after he's grown up!" Chu Runrun said helplessly.
"I don't care, you are mine anyway." Ning Xuan suddenly became domineering, but there was a hint of childishness in his tone.
"The necklace has been taken. Do we have to send it back to him?" Chu Ruanruan said in a muffled voice while leaning on Ning Xuan's shoulder.
"You don't have to send the necklace back, but you are not allowed to meet him alone in the future." Ning Xuan said firmly.
Chu Ruanruan was speechless: "I haven't seen him many times in the past few years, let alone meeting him alone."
"I don't care. I won't let go if you don't agree." Ning Xuan hugged her tighter.
Chu Ruanruan felt like her bones were being pinched together, and she could only nod:
"Okay, okay! I will never meet him alone, okay?"
"That's pretty good." Ning Xuan showed a triumphant smile.
"Then you can let me go now. I'm going to be strangled to death by you." Chu Ruanruan said in a muffled voice.
Ning Xuan quickly relaxed a little, but did not let go of Chu Ruanruan:
"I'm sleepy, Ruanruan, please sleep with me for a while!"
Ning Xuan rubbed Chu Runruan's neck gently, and Chu Runruan hid back because of the itch.
"Okay, okay! Stop rubbing it, it's so itchy."
Ning Xuan was about to go to bed to rest when he saw a shadow coming through the gap in the door, and the door seemed to be squeezed from the outside inward.
"Brother, what's wrong?" Chu Runrun asked in confusion.
"Shh!"
Ning Xuan signaled Chu Runrun to be quiet, then quietly walked to the door and slowly placed his hand on the doorknob.
Outside the house, the four people and one dog who were listening attentively were still wondering why there was no movement when the door suddenly opened.
The four people who were clinging to the door suddenly fell in, and poor Dahei was used as a cushion.
"You guys... are crushing me to death!"
Dahei was forced to speak out.
Ning Yu, Chu Qi, Ning Feng and Ning Zhi quickly got up and looked at Ning Xuan and Chu Runrun awkwardly.
"Um... the dishes in the kitchen seem to have not been washed yet. I'll go wash them!" Ning Feng slipped away first.
"I'll go help too." Ning Zhi followed closely behind.
The remaining Ning Yu, Chu Qi and Da Hei stared at each other for a while.
"Hey, Dahei, didn't you just want to go out for a stroll? We'll take you there!"
"Yes! Let's go!"
Ning Yu and Chu Qi each pulled one of Dahei's front legs and dragged it away forcibly.
Ning Xuan and Chu Runrun looked at each other helplessly.
"Don't worry about them, just get some sleep!"
…
Time flies, and the days leading up to New Year's Eve are unusually peaceful. Originally, everyone was a little nervous because of Monk's incident, but since everything has been calm these days, everyone has gradually relaxed.
Chu Runrun placed the little ghosts that Wei Zhiyin had found in Mengqi's house to guard it, and even burned a few incense sticks for them.
The fireworks were already set off at around three o'clock in the afternoon. The children in the village all carried some small firecrackers with them. They threw a few out from time to time, and cheered happily after hearing a few crisp sounds.
"Tonight is New Year's Eve. After tonight, we will be one year older!" Ning Feng sighed.
"You know you're old, but why don't you find a wife and get married?" Ning Changbo said unhappily.
"Grandpa, I have a girlfriend and I wanted to bring her back, but she said the time is not right, so there is nothing I can do." Ning Feng said helplessly.
"Grandpa, I can prove this. My second and third brothers both have someone they like, but the time is not right, so you can't meet them." Chu Runrun said with a smile.
"Ruanruan, do you mean you have seen them all?" Ning Changbo asked curiously.
"Of course! Not only have I seen him, I'm also very familiar with him." Chu Runrun said with a smile.
"How about it, are your second and third sister-in-law beautiful?" Ning Changbo asked hurriedly.
"Of course she's beautiful. How can the second and third brothers have bad taste?" Chu Runrun said with a smile.
"Then I feel relieved. I hope these two brats can bring their wives back as soon as possible while I'm still alive. Otherwise, if I wait for a few more years, I may not be able to see them." Ning Changbo sighed.
"Pooh, pooh, pooh! It's New Year's Day, grandpa, please don't talk nonsense. I've seen your face, and you will live to be at least a hundred years old." Chu Runrun said with a smile.
"real?"
"Grandpa, don't you know my abilities? I won't lie to you!" Chu Runrun said with a smile.
"Hahaha! Okay, then grandpa will try his best to see his great-grandson." Ning Changbo said with a smile.
As they were speaking, Ning Youwei came in supporting Monkie.
Duan Yu, Qi Chong and the five special forces soldiers followed.
"Dad, we brought Uncle Meng and the others over."
"Lao Ning, today is New Year's Eve, why did you ask us to come here?"
Although Monkie said this, he was happy in his heart.
"The New Year's Eve reunion dinner must be complete with everyone together. Without you, who will drink with me tonight?" Ning Changbo said with a smile.
Meng Qi rolled his eyes at Ning Changbo and said, "You still dare to drink? Aren't you afraid of what your two granddaughters will say about you?"
"If you dare to drink, I will drink it even if I have to be scolded by my granddaughter." Ning Changbo said with a smile.
"Why are you so conceited, old man? I already have grandchildren."
Meng Qi pulled Duan Yu over and said, "Let me introduce you again. This is my grandson Meng An."
"Meng An?"
"Grandpa Ning, from now on I will no longer be called Duan Yu. My name is Meng An, which means peace." Meng An said with a smile.
"Meng An, this is a good name." Ning Changbo said with a smile.
"Stop standing there, sit down and talk."
Han Lixue brought tea and pastries to everyone, and the family sat on the sofa watching TV.
Meng An watched all this, and the ice deep in his eyes seemed to melt a little.
"Xiao An, come here. You like sweet food, don't you? Grandpa will add more sugar for you." Monkie said with a smile.
"Thank you, Grandpa!" Meng An smiled sincerely.
Chu Runrun leaned on Ning Xuan's shoulder, eating the orange Ning Xuan fed her while secretly looking at Meng An.
After not seeing him for a few days, she felt that Meng An had become even stranger!
The appearance of Meng An's face seemed to have changed a little, and it seemed cleaner than before, just like a newborn baby.
