Meng Qingluan grinned and laughed.
She sat down nonchalantly, put down the melon seeds, and said indifferently.
"If you don't tell me, I don't care to hear it! I'll just ask someone else later."
"I'm sitting right next to you. If you don't ask the question that's readily available, who else would you like to ask?"
"Li Zhanjue?"
Hearing her indifferent words, alarm bells went off in Shen Yan's mind, and two smug faces instantly popped into his head.
One of them is Li Zhanjue.
One of them is Li Zhanlan...
hateful!
Meng Qingluan glanced at him indifferently, "That's none of your business."
"Why? Why can't I care? I'm going to care, I'll pester you and not let you ask."
Chen Yan wrapped his arms around Meng Qingluan's shoulders and kept babbling in her ear like a fly, looking utterly shameless.
Meng Qingluan stared in disbelief, turned her head to look at him, cupped his face in her hands, and leaned in to smell him.
That's strange, there's no smell of alcohol.
She couldn't help but ask, "Did you drink fake alcohol?"
Chen Yan broke free from her grasp and answered, word by word.
"No!"
"Then what the hell are you yelling for!" Meng Qingluan slapped him again. "You won't tell me, so you won't let me ask someone else?"
“Chen Yan, today is the Little New Year, I don’t want to say much to you.”
Shen Yan said, "I'll talk, I'll talk!"
Shen Yan leaned close to Meng Qingluan's ear and whispered it to her.
After hearing this, Meng Qingluan couldn't help but chuckle, and asked him with some disbelief.
Are you sure? Is it really okay?
Chen Yan nodded.
"Just do it that day, don't worry, I guarantee it will make you happy."
Meng Qingluan pinched his face and squeezed it, praising him.
"Is this a New Year's gift you gave me? It's nice, I like it very much."
"..."
The two were having a good time when Zhu Qing'an came in carrying a small snow rabbit.
Upon hearing the noise, Shen Yan immediately turned his gaze over, the smile in his eyes fading considerably. He glanced at him, then his eyes fell on the snow rabbit in Shen Yan's hand.
He frowned.
Zhu Qing'an noticed his gaze falling on what was in her hand, and silently covered it up, as if afraid he would steal it away from her.
If he hadn't hidden it, it would have been fine, but the moment he did, Chen Yan immediately sensed something unusual.
He laughed and said, "What are you holding in your hand? Didn't you wash your hands? What if you get an upset stomach after playing with dirty things?"
Meng Qingluan heard his words and saw the snow rabbit in his hand, and said.
"Why are you still holding the little rabbit? Put it back in the room first, then wash your hands. Holding such a big ball of snow, you might catch a cold."
Have you forgotten what I told you?
Zhu Qing'an explained in a muffled voice, "It's too hot in the room, it will melt."
Meng Qingluan found it amusing, "But your palms are warmer, so holding the snow rabbit will only make it melt faster."
"..."
Zhu Qing'an remained silent.
He still refused to let go, and the transformation could only be transformed into his hands.
Seeing him become stubborn, Meng Qingluan also felt a bit of a headache.
After a while, she suggested, "I'll send someone to fill a basin with snow. You can put the little rabbit in the snow basin, then wash your hands and eat."
Zhu Qing'an blinked, thinking that this was a good idea.
The servants quickly filled a basin with snow, and Zhu Qing'an carefully placed the rabbit into the basin himself.
While Zhu Qing'an was washing his hands, Chen Yan asked.
"Did you make that little rabbit for him?"
Meng Qingluan swallowed hard and nodded gently.
“He likes rabbits, and I didn’t prepare any other gifts for the Lunar New Year, so I made a snow rabbit for him.”
"……All right."
Shen Yan's voice clearly became lower, and his previous excitement vanished.
Seeing that he was lost in thought, Meng Qingluan put her hands on his arms and pressed them against his face.
Are you angry again?
Shen Yan pursed his lips slightly, turned his head to look at her, and forced a fake smile that was uglier than crying.
"Um."
Meng Qingluan withdrew her hand, uttered an "Oh," and muttered to herself in a low voice.
"I thought that jealous guy wouldn't be jealous today, so I specially prepared a New Year's gift to reward him."
As soon as Meng Qingluan finished speaking, Shen Yan's expression immediately changed, his eyelashes fluttered, but he still maintained a composed expression.
He asked, "What gift?"
Meng Qingluan, like a child caught whispering, immediately covered her mouth and darted her eyes around.
"What gift? There is no gift."
Chen Yan held his breath, "I heard you!"
"Oh!" Meng Qingluan put down her hand and shrugged indifferently. "The gift was a reward for you. You didn't even pass, so why should I give it to you?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yan wanted to turn her head away defiantly and reply in a cold tone: "Then I don't need it."
That's in line with his personality.
Can……
He really wanted it too.
He wanted the gift that Luanluan would give him.
Shen Yan didn't even last two seconds, before he gave up and changed his mind before he could even turn his head.
"I'm not angry or jealous. I was just joking with you."
"See, you're taking it seriously again."
"..."
Meng Qingluan suppressed a laugh, but the second half of his sentence sounded so familiar.
Isn't that one of her lines?
"I'll give you the gift now, I'll give it to you before you go to bed tonight!"
Chen Yan was both excited and disappointed, and he couldn't wait any longer.
He thought he could get it now, and then when that brat came back, he could show off his gift to him.
Will he be driven mad?
After struggling for a long time, Shen Yan finally managed to utter a sentence.
"You're so mean."
The fish that had been caught in his stomach couldn't satisfy his cravings.
Meng Qingluan couldn't help but laugh. How could this person be so delicate and pampered, yet her expression was as unpleasant as if she had swallowed a fly when she saw other people?
"Bad? I was just about to give you an appetizer. You call me bad? I guess I'd better not say anything."
"What appetizer is it?" Shen Yan asked expectantly, her eyes shining. "Good Luan Luan, please stop teasing me, I'm about to cry."
My God.
Meng Qingluan quickly stopped her, "No! Don't cry on New Year's Eve, or the sesame candy won't be able to stick to the Kitchen God's mouth."
Meng Qingluan pointed to the empty table in front of her and said with a smile.
"Today, I made a small plate of dumplings..."
"Luanluan is so amazing!"
Before Meng Qingluan could finish speaking, Shen Yan started clapping and praising her, not forgetting to give a meaningful look to the people in the room to join in.
Upon seeing this, the servants in the house immediately burst into applause, making it seem like a wedding ceremony.
Meng Qingluan raised her palm and clenched it.
The applause then faded away.
"I've included a coin inside. If you manage to find it, I'll give you a double surprise, how about that?"
Chen Yan was curious.
"A double surprise?"
"Yes! I'll give you my most important possession as a New Year's gift."
The most important thing...
Shen Yan blushed.
"Isn't this...isn't it a bit too rushed? I'm not ready yet."
