Chapter 568: Going Home for the New Year
The next afternoon, Meng Chuyuan and Lu Qingye boarded the plane back home.
After a long flight of more than ten hours, they finally arrived in Weicheng, which happened to be New Year's Eve.
The plane that Meng Chuyuan and his friends took landed at around 2:00 p.m. Because the number of people at the airport during the Spring Festival was several times higher than usual, the traffic situation was particularly tense, and they were stuck in traffic for a long time on their way home.
In the evening, the sky gradually darkened and the street lights came on, but the roads were still crowded.
At the intersection outside the car window, traffic police are on duty, directing traffic and maintaining traffic order.
Meng Chuyuan opened the car window to get some fresh air. Looking at the traffic jam ahead, which was motionless, he thought they might not be able to make it back in time for the New Year's Eve dinner. "Why don't we call Mom and Dad and tell them we're stuck in traffic?"
"Okay." Lu Qingye also felt that he couldn't get back in a short time, so he took out his cell phone and called home.
At this time, Lin Youjuan and the others were sitting on the sofa, anxiously waiting for Meng Chuyuan and Lu Qingye to come back.
Lin Youjuan caught a glimpse of Lu Qingye's call and answered it without hesitation, "Aye, where are you guys? Are you coming back soon?"
Lu Qingye: "We are stuck in the city, and it may take more than an hour to get home. You can eat first, and you don't have to wait for us."
Grandma Lu asked with concern: "How is it? Are they coming back?"
Lin Youjuan responded to Grandma Lu first: "They are on their way, but there is a traffic jam, so they may be late."
Grandma Lu: "That's fine, let's wait a little longer."
After a while, Lin Youjuan said to Lu Qingye, "It's okay, we're not hungry. Your grandma also said that she will wait for you two to come back before she starts eating."
"Okay then." Since it was grandma's idea, he didn't say much. "I'll hang up first."
Seeing Lu Qingye hang up the phone, Meng Chuyuan looked over curiously, "What did they say?"
"They are all waiting for us to come back home."
"Okay, if I had known, I would have come back a day earlier." Originally, they had not planned to stay in Italy for so long, but Lu Qingye didn't want her to be too tired during her period, so they rested in the hotel for two days.
Now the whole family is waiting for them to come back before they can have dinner, which is really embarrassing.
Lu Qingye rubbed her head and comforted her softly, "It's okay, we'll be there soon."
The busy streets are filled with the lively atmosphere of the Spring Festival. Occasionally, the sound of fireworks can be heard in the distance, and the sound of car radios is sending New Year greetings to people all over the country with a festive atmosphere.
Meng Chuyuan leaned against the window to enjoy the breeze for a while, then felt a little cold, so she closed the car window. Then she leaned next to Lu Qingye and rested her head on his shoulder.
Lu Qingye reached out and naturally took Meng Chuyuan into his arms, looked down at her and said, "Are you sleepy? Do you want to sleep for a while?"
She nodded slightly, "Yeah, I'm a little sleepy."
"Then take a nap. I'll call you when we get there." Lu Qingye asked the driver to turn down the music to maintain a relatively comfortable environment for Meng Chuyuan to fall asleep.
Meng Chuyuan found a comfortable position in his arms, closed her eyes, and soon fell asleep.
When she woke up, the road was no longer congested and the car was driving smoothly on the quiet road.
Meng Chuyuan rubbed his eyes and looked at the road outside the window. It seemed familiar, as if it was the road to the Lu family villa. "Are we almost there?"
Lu Qingye: "Yes, we'll be there soon."
