As the clock struck midnight on New Year's Eve, Qin Yan leaned down and whispered in her ear.
"Happy New Year, baby."
Tears still clung to Yun Nuan's eyelashes. She let out a soft moan, her hands gripping his shoulders. Her vision was blurry as she responded.
"Qin Yan, Happy New Year!"
The blessings ended, but the fun wasn't over yet; in short, Yun Nuan stayed up all night again. She often felt she was quite the ladies' man, otherwise, how could she have fallen for Qin Yan's charms so easily?
Seeing the scoundrel in front of her trying to appease her, she opened her mouth and bit his shoulder, leaving a small tooth mark in no time, without much force.
As if adding some kind of spice, Qin Yan's desire intensified, and his hoarse voice was filled with excitement.
"Baby, is this a reward for me?"
Yun Nuan wanted to cover his mouth, but her arms were weak and powerless. She could only open her blurry eyes and try to glare at him. Qin Yan had kissed her eyes, and now she couldn't even glare at him.
-----------------------
Grandpa Qin had been planning for the two of them to return to their old house for the New Year for a long time. Last time, he thought Yun Nuan would leave after taking the money. Who knew she would have surgery and be perfectly fine?
After hearing the news, he was restless all day, fearing that Qin Yan would come to settle scores with him. But so much time has passed and Qin Yan has not come, so he feels much more at ease.
When people are free from worries, they become carefree, and their minds start to wander with wild ideas. He thought it was fine if Yun Nuan didn't leave, but she needed to repair her relationship with Qin Yan.
So he sent messages to Yun Nuan every day, but didn't receive a reply for a whole month. He even called her once, but Qin Yan answered the call.
He was so scared that he didn't dare to look for anyone. With the New Year approaching, he said that Qin Yan wanted to go back to the old house to celebrate the New Year this year.
After a forceful attempt to reason with him, he called Qin Yan, but a week had passed and the call had never been answered. He was so angry that he stomped his feet and walked around ten times before he calmed down.
On the second day of the new year, Qin Yan left with his entourage, refusing all offers to visit relatives and friends. Whether it was his maternal relatives or other members of the Qin family faction who wanted to find Qin Yan, they were all told that Qin Yan was not in S City.
He took a group of people to Australia for a trip, where it's summer and the weather would be better for Yunnuan's health. So he took them there for a few days first, and then they went to see the aurora borealis.
Like embarking on a grand adventure, the two traveled light, experiencing the atmosphere of different countries and embracing and kissing each other during every eye contact.
Yun Nuan, wearing a floral dress, could run freely on the beach. The seaside was filled with the fragrance of coconuts, the salty scent of the sea breeze, and the vast, azure sea.
After three days, he took her to see the aurora. In the icy world, Qin Yan made her wear thick clothes and put on heat packs, making her look round and chubby like a ball.
Qin Yan nodded in satisfaction. Here, no one knew them. When they met some foreigners, the foreigners would greet them warmly.
Meanwhile, Jiang Miao and others, who were far away in S City, received gifts from Yun Nuan and red envelopes from Qin Yan on the first day of the new year.
Yun Nuan's gift was the extremely expensive tea that everyone had drunk last time, while Qin Yan directly gave each person a red envelope of 100,000 yuan.
However, there's a condition for this red envelope: don't bother him and Yun Nuan these days. He doesn't want Yun Nuan to be on her phone chatting with them in a group chat while she's with him.
Jiang Miao and the others naturally agreed, and then they received 100,000 yuan in the bank. It was as if the God of Wealth had descended upon them.
However, everyone also gave the two gifts, but they will have to wait until they return from their trip to receive them.
The Qin family mansion was brightly lit on New Year's Eve, but everyone was staring at each other in disbelief, no one expected that Qin Yan would not attend the banquet.
His Sandalwood Palace was not open to just anyone, so everyone went back to their old house to wait.
When the clock struck twelve, everyone realized that Qin Yan really didn't care about the people in the Qin family. Back then, Qin Yan's father went abroad partly because he was forced to, due to the fierce competition within the family. At that time, Qin Yan's father was also forced to get involved.
Qin Muyu played on her phone listlessly, while in the living room, the relatives were all complaining about her uncle. She felt helpless; if her mother hadn't insisted she come, she wouldn't have come at all.
Qin Lingyue chatted happily with her boyfriend, the college entrance exam just a few months away. However, her boyfriend was tied for first place in the entire school with Qin Sichen, while she was second, so she had no worries about her grades. Even within the school, everyone knew about their relationship but turned a blind eye.
Their grades never declined when they were together; in fact, they always outperformed the students behind them by a large margin, which the school was happy to see.
"Hey, which school are you planning to apply to?"
Qin Muyu was bored playing on her phone, so she moved to sit next to Qin Lingyue and accidentally glanced at their chat history, discovering that they were actually talking about math.
Her pupils dilated in shock as she watched Qin Lingyue's reply, which was nothing short of astronomical in his eyes. She sincerely admired her; how come, even though they were all members of the Qin family, only she and Qin Sichen were so intelligent?
Qin Lingyue replied with a smile.
"I was admitted to S University through a special admission program, but I still want to try taking the college entrance exam."
This answer made Qin Muyu even more heartbroken. What did he mean by "guaranteed admission to S University?!" She turned to Qin Sichen in disbelief, wanting to ask if it was true.
To everyone's surprise, Qin Sichen replied calmly, "I was also recommended for admission, but to B University. I want to stay in S City and plan to apply to S University when I take the college entrance exam."
Another blow. Qin Muyu clutched her chest, unable to bear it, and looked at them with eyes that were neither human nor human. Why did the Qin family genes go astray in her case? Why!
She said "okay, okay" three times in a row, and then spoke again, "It seems that my uncle's girlfriend is also at S University. If you go, you should be able to meet her. Tell me about her when you go."
Qin Lingyue replied, seeing her pathetic state.
“You can also apply to S University. If you improve your academic score a bit more, and your specialty is drawing, you can get into S University based on your skills.”
Qin Muyu sighed whenever this was mentioned. From childhood to adulthood, she had only Qin Lingyue and Qin Sichen by her side, and since they were all in the same school, it was inevitable that they would be compared to each other.
Every time she heard such comments, she would laugh and say, "They are already very capable, I wouldn't dare compare myself to them. You're giving me too much credit."
After hearing it so many times, she gradually became numb, but she still couldn't help feeling heartbroken. Even her parents often said that she couldn't compare to them.
She ignored everyone else's denials, but her parents' accusations made her extremely sad.
She also wanted to memorize those formulas and letters, she also wanted to be able to solve the problems quickly, she also wanted to receive everyone's praise, and she wasn't born heartless.
She gave the two of them an awkward smile.
“I’m not cut out for it. Maybe my mom has wanted me to study abroad for a long time, so I won’t stay in S City and bother them anymore.”
