It was New Year’s Day when Yan Yongwang was twenty-nine years old.
Chen He went out to eat with a friend. At the table, his friend asked him with a smile: "How old are you this year?"
Chen He: "Thirty-eight years old." He sighed, raised his eyes, and smiled at his friend: "Why? Do you think I'm old?"
The friend shook his head and said, "That's not the case. I think you look like that. Chen He was handsome and elegant when he was in his early twenties. When he was thirty, he still looked like a young man in his early twenties. When he was almost forty, he looked only about twenty-seven or twenty-eight.
He may have taken an elixir of life. Although he is busy with work and often travels on business, his hair is still very thick and he doesn't have the beer belly of a middle-aged man.
He is a respectable urban white-collar worker and a middle-aged office worker.
Friend: “Have you paid off your mortgage yet?”
Chen He said calmly: "Don't rush to pay it back. The monthly payment will still follow inflation. The longer the loan, the more cost-effective it is." He was in a rare mood, with a bit of the spiritedness of a middle-aged man, and briefly talked about his thoughts on currency in recent years.
My friend laughed: "You are a bit like us middle-aged people."
Chen He: I always feel that it is not a good thing.
The friend smiled and said, "But it's still different. After all, you never give advice to people you don't know very well, and even when you express your own opinions, you are very humble and careful."
Chen He was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
He thought that this was his habit. When he was out, as the personal secretary of President Yan, he needed to be careful and cautious. After all, if he said something bad outside, others would think that it might be Yan Yongwang who ordered him to say it.
For the sake of Yan Yongwang's reputation, Chen He has been restraining himself for so many years, maxing out his social skills, smiling, and doing a good job for his young master outside.
He said lazily: "Thank you for the compliment." That was all he said, without saying much else. He just changed the subject and the conversation ended.
New Year's Day is a public holiday.
Many colleagues in the company go out to play, either with their spouses or with their families.
Some posted nine pictures on their Moments, which looked particularly heartwarming.
Chen He gave them thumbs up one by one.
He went out to dinner with his friends and took two photos. He didn't want to post on WeChat Moments this year, so he sent them to Yan Yongwang.
Chen He: "It's delicious. Let's come together next time."
Yan Yongwang: [Cat sits upright]
Yan Yongwang: “Okay.”
Chen He thought about it, sent a message, and rarely mentioned Yan Yongwang's long-lost lover.
He asked, "I saw a photo of Miss Chao and her sister going out to dinner yesterday on New Year's Eve."
Chao Juan posted a circle of friends, without blocking him. She took two or three photos, in which there were two beautiful women, one with a smile on her lips, and the other without any extra expression, but with tenderness overflowing in her eyes.
The former is the very happy Chao Juan, and the latter is her sister.
These two beauties are really pleasing to the eye.
Yan Yongwang: "I know."
Chen He thought to himself, it turns out Chao Juan doesn't have the habit of blocking her ex-boyfriend. Thinking of this, it was a bit mean, and he laughed to himself.
Friend: "Why, you're so happy?"
Chen He: "Nothing, I'm just a middle-aged man who always wants to cheer when I see others having fun." He smiled with curved eyebrows and looked very young.
The friend was his college classmate. The two of them were drinking happily. During the meal, the friend asked him, "Do you still remember that during college, you were very brave and led a group of junior students to explore haunted houses every day?"
Chen He recalled the past. He still smiled and said softly, "Yes, I was very brave back then."
The friend winked and said, "What about now? Are you still brave enough?"
Shen He: "Now I have the guts..."
He was drunk and full of passion, and wanted to say that he was still as courageous as before.
But before he could say it, the words got stuck in his throat.
Slowly, he shook his head, admitting that he was no longer young and was becoming more and more timid as he grew older.
"No, if I go again now, I'll probably be so scared that my heart will jump out of my throat."
The friend was skeptical: "Is it true?"
Shen He pondered for a while, and then told him credibly, "Of course it's true."
His tone was clear and there was a faint smile in his voice, "I'm almost forty, and I'm almost suffering from the three highs. I'm just keeping myself in shape now, otherwise..." Otherwise, he would definitely be like one of the greasy middle-aged men, with a big belly and not very gentlemanly.
My friend is now also a middle-aged man with a small belly. After hearing what he said, he glanced at him and then looked at his own thick belly.
Sigh x3.
"You are still very handsome. I was a beautiful girl in my youth. I never thought I would become a greasy middle-aged man now..."
On New Year's Day, they drank and talked. After all, a drinking party for middle-aged people is inseparable from reminiscing about the past.
However, before getting drunk, my friend held up his head and glanced at his good friend opposite him. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, thinking: Although he is a middle-aged man reminiscing about the past, there is really no comparison between him, a fat middle-aged man, and the handsome "middle-aged man" in front of him.
At this moment, he is like a sour lemon.
…
Lin Shen likes to look at Chao Juan’s circle of friends. He often clicks on Chao Juan’s profile picture to see what she has posted recently.
The new year has arrived, today is New Year's Day, and he spent New Year's Eve with his parents yesterday.
It was a rare occasion that his father allowed him to drink a few cups of white wine, saying that the two men should have a taste of it together.
Lin Shen didn't dare to say that he and his friends had been drinking outside and had even gotten completely drunk.
He must not let his parents know this. His parents are both doting characters. If they knew that their child was playing around outside, they would definitely not let him stay up all night with his friends next time.
Lin Shen and his father drank a few cups of white wine and got drunk. The whole night passed. When he woke up, he still had a headache. He brushed his teeth, washed his face, took out his phone, and replied to his friends' New Year's greetings one by one.
Then, as usual, I clicked on Chaojuan’s avatar to see what the beautiful sister did.
When I woke up from my hangover, it was already afternoon.
It's time for dinner.
His parents had a dinner party and told him to eat and drink well today - there should have been a family gathering on New Year's Day, but his parents were busy with business matters, so every year they only celebrated New Year's Eve.
Their family is small, so a single gathering is enough. On New Year's Day, adults have adult things to do, and children have children's things to do.
I went to Chao Juan’s circle of friends and clicked on it.
Some beautiful photos.
Lin Shen couldn't help but laugh.
"What a beautiful lady!"
Lin Shen felt his cheeks flushed again. He thought, how come she is so pretty? The older sister next to her is pretty too!
All in all, a family of beauties!
He commented: "Sister is so beautiful! Happy New Year!" Lin Shen's "duck" style of language appeared again.
Chao Juan hadn't replied yet, but Lin Shen wasn't discouraged. After all, maybe he had something to do at this time! He started to have fun on his own. He ordered a meal, but before it arrived, his parents called from the drinking party.
Mother Ke Xiao: "My dear son, you are awake. Do you have a headache?"
"Headache, there is hangover soup in the kitchen. Auntie is off today, so you can heat it up and drink it yourself."
Lin Shen said sweetly: "I don't have a headache. I've already ordered food and will eat it soon."
"Mom, where are you and Dad at the drinking party? The voice on the other end is quite loud."
Lin Shen was bored and asked.
Ke Xiao: "It's a corporate gathering organized by the city. Your brother Yongwang is here too."
Lin Shen: “Eh? Oh.” He was surprised for a moment, but didn’t react much. He said: “Then you guys should drink less, especially my dad. He drank a lot with me yesterday. We can’t drink anymore today. It will damage our liver.”
Lin Fuyu's voice came, and he was very pleased with his beloved son's advice: "Got it, Dad, drink less, remember to eat, and rest early after eating."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Shen waited for dinner, turned on the TV and watched this year's New Year's Eve party.
The New Year’s Eve party was actually quite boring, and as a young man in his twenties he really didn’t like watching it, but it was still nice to listen to it as an accompaniment.
It was late at night, almost eleven o'clock, and my parents hadn't come back yet. But Lin Shen estimated that they should be home in the early morning.
This kind of drinking party usually ends late at night, and the driver usually brings us back at one or two o'clock.
A little after eleven.
Lin Shen’s WeChat dinged, indicating that there was a new message.
He clicked on it and saw that it was a red dot in the circle of friends.
Chao Juan replied to him: "Happy New Year to you too, and may you be happy every day." Her tone was so gentle and graceful that it was rare for her to do so.
Lin Shen could imagine that Sister Chao Juan on the other end was typing these words with a smile on her face. He rolled over with joy on the sofa, clenched his fists, and whimpered softly: "Sister is so gentle! I love you! Oh oh!"
…
Hua Rongying looked at Yan Yongwang in front of her with curiosity. He had his brows lowered, reeked of alcohol, and was slightly tipsy.
His skin was very white, and even when he was drunk, his cheeks didn't show much redness. He was a person whose face didn't turn red easily after drinking, except for his lips, which were strangely red. In the middle of the night, with his white skin and black eyes, he looked particularly handsome and noble.
Like someone walking out of a painting.
"What are you doing?"
Hua Rongying saw him holding a mobile phone, seemingly replying to a message.
Yan Yongwang raised his face slowly.
He blinked his eyelids slowly, his eyelashes were thick, his dark eyes were deep, and his voice was elegant: "Reply to a little friend."
Hua Rongying couldn't help but smile: "At this hour, you're already drunk, and you still remember to reply to the kid's message?"
Yan Yongwang: "He said Happy New Year, I have to reply him." Drunk, he racked his brains to think about how to reply.
Finally, Lin Shen was replied with words that looked sweet and gentle and lovely when typed.
While typing in the input box, Yan Yongwang thought for a second, wondering if this tone was too feminine. But then he thought, isn't his identity "Chao Juan" a woman?
Then let’s just go back like this.
With the drunk buff on, the tone you use to reply to your friends becomes much softer and cuter.
On the spare plane, Xu Boling and Chen Haohan both sent him New Year greetings.
Yan Yongwang replied one by one.
His life is really good, with friends, family and career.
Hua Rongying held her chin and slowly helped him sober up.
"Today is the first day of the new year. What are your wishes?"
Hua Rongying asked suddenly.
She saw a light in Yan Yongwang's eyes, like a shy child asking for candy.
After hesitating for a while, I couldn't help but whispered, "I want to see my parents."
When drunk, one's mind is half drunk and half awake, as if walking on air, light and airy.
Sword Cultivator: "Anything else?"
Yan Yongwang thought deeply for a while and added: "Chen He lives longer."
Hua Rongying couldn't help laughing: "What else?"
Her cute child greedily added another sentence.
"Life is going smoothly, everything is safe, and everyone is happy."
She nodded slightly and said she understood.
Yan Yongwang met her eyes blankly and whispered, "What?"
Hua Rongying: "I said, Mom knows."
"My child's New Year's wish will be fulfilled for you."
Yan Yongwang was still a little drunk: "...Huh?"
This was the first time Hua Rongying pinched a "male" child. Her fingers were delicate and white. She gently touched the tip of the child's nose and pinched it lovingly.
"New Year's wishes will come true."
"Just be patient and wait."
New Year's resolution for 29 years old.
Yan Yong made three promises.
——is a greedy child.
However, Hua Rongying thought that he had the capital to be greedy.
Chen He's life span - there are so many ways in the world of cultivation that he can always live longer. Even if Yan Yongwang accompanies him for a lifetime, he still can't bear to let him go. When he dies in the future, his soul can be sent to the reincarnation pool of the world of cultivation.
In short, you can be a strict elementary school companion for our little Shitou.
Life goes smoothly, everything is safe, and everything is happy - it's too simple. As long as Yan Yongwang is smooth, safe, and happy, everyone will be very happy.
Finally, I want to find my parents.
Hua Rongying pondered for a while, took out his sword, wrote a string of words with his mysterious power, and hung it on the sword.
Let the sword be like a dog, carrying the mysterious power engraved with words and going back to that world.
For about a month, Yan Yongwang hadn't seen the sword that loved to stick to him. When he asked about it, Hua Rongying told him, "It has something to do and will be back in a few days."
In another world, Ding Xuance, who was walking towards the main hall of Qihua Immortal Sect to answer questions from the sect leader, was suddenly knocked on the head.
He covered his forehead, feeling lost and helpless, wondering who was the guy who attacked him?
Before he could raise his Xuanli armor to fight back, he heard a familiar sound of sword.
A twisting, deep-sea cutlassfish-like sword materialized from the air.
The words flashed from top to bottom like a banner, swaying brightly in front of Ding Xuance.
[Practice hard, I miss you guys.]
Ding Xuance stretched out his hand and sensed more information from the banner. He looked at the sword of the senior sister for a long time, tears filling his eyes.
He smiled gently and brightly and said he understood.
The sword twisted wildly in the air, and the sword, which had already given birth to a spirit, told the monk in front of it in its own way: [Come on, I'll go tell Chao Laogou a message, and your wife should remember to tell him!]
With a whoosh, the sword disappeared.
Ding Xuance was helpless: After so many years, because the senior sister was injured and nearly died because of the mistake made by Chao Lingxi, Jian really still hated Chao Lingxi. However, it seemed that he still liked his baby Yan Yan very much?
That’s good. He also needs to speed up his cultivation and try to go back to visit his children.
Thinking about it, I sent a message to my dear wife: Wife, the elder sister has solved the troubles in that world, and she misses us dearly. The elder sister urged us to go there...
After so many words, I feel like the message is not enough to express all the information.
Ding Xuance had originally planned to go and talk to the master, but now he decided to turn back.
I sent a message to the master: The eldest sister has given me the news. I will go back and talk to Lin Yue first and come back later.
Without waiting for a reply, his heart full of fatherly love overflowed. He hummed a tune happily and went to talk to his wife about the children.
…
This year, Yan Yongwang turned thirty years old.
One of his New Year's wishes at the age of 29 came true.
In the future, he will be able to realize countless wishes smoothly, safely and happily.
There is no way, having two dads and two moms means you are spoiled like this.
Whether in this world or in another world, he is the most pampered and loved kid!
