At 1 a.m., Yu Yunzhi was safely escorted back downstairs by Shao Wenyan.
"Where are you staying tonight, Brother Wen Yan?"
Shao Wenyan helped Yu Yunzhi unbuckle her seatbelt, leaned over and kissed her briefly, then pulled away, looking at Yu Yunzhi with a gentle smile.
"I've booked a hotel."
Yu Yunzhi raised her hand to touch the lips he had just kissed, and quickly looked away as soon as her eyes met Shao Wenyan's. She didn't dare to look directly into his eyes, as the love in them was too obvious and almost overflowing.
How annoying he is! I should have just not agreed to be with him! I don't even know how many times I've kissed myself tonight!
"How about I pick you up tomorrow to go out and play?" Shao Wenyan patted the little girl's head, his voice brimming with undisguised laughter.
Why are you still so shy? Who was so bold as to kiss him first?
Okay~
"Alright, go back and rest! See you tomorrow." After getting out of the car, Shao Wenyan took the lantern he had bought while watching the fireworks from the back seat and handed it to Yu Yunzhi.
He kept the one with the female figure on it and gave the other three to Yu Yunzhi.
"Bye-bye~" Yu Yunzhi took the lantern and said goodbye to Shao Wenyan, turning back every few steps.
Shao Wenyan waited downstairs until the lights upstairs came on before leaving.
Yu Yunzhi tiptoed to open the door. The house was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything except for the faint light from the hallway that shone into the entryway. Once the door was closed, he couldn't see anything at all.
Yu Yunzhi put down the lantern in her hand and was about to change her shoes when the living room light suddenly turned on, startling her. Then she saw three people sitting in a row on the sofa in the living room.
After recognizing who it was, Yu Yunzhi clutched her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. "Mom and Dad, sister, why aren't you asleep yet?"
"Oh, so some people still remember they have a family!" Yu Luoyan joked sarcastically. "One phone call from someone and they won't even celebrate the New Year with us..."
"Oh my~ Sister~" Yu Yunzhi didn't even change her shoes before running to the sofa, sitting down, hugging Yu Luoyan's arm, and swaying it back and forth, acting coquettishly.
Yu Luoyan pretended not to see her, "Who is it? Who is calling me sister? I don't have a sister who forgets her sister for the sake of beauty."
"Mom, look at my sister!" Yu Yunzhi complained to his mother.
"I haven't seen a daughter who forgets her mother's beauty either," Mother Yu said with a smile, playing along with her eldest daughter's teasing of her younger daughter.
"Mom~" Yu Yunzhi anxiously tugged at his mother's sleeve and shook it.
"What is this?" Yu Luoyan's suddenly amplified voice interrupted their banter, and their gazes all turned to the hand that Yu Luoyan had raised, Yu Yunzhi's hand.
Yu Luoyan lifted Yu Yunzhi's hand that was holding her arm. His slender fingers were like an exhibit placed under the light, perfect and flawless, or like a hand model displaying her jewelry.
ring?!
Yu Yunzhi is not someone who likes to wear jewelry. She only wears jewelry when attending events or when there is brand sponsorship.
Yu's mother and father also noticed the ring on Yu Yunzhi's hand that was sparkling under the light.
I knew they would be together, but I never expected it to happen today! And the rings were already on so late at night?
"It's a ring..." Yu Yunzhi said with great uncertainty. Anyone could tell at a glance that it was a ring, but Yu Luoyan's question clearly didn't mean what was on the surface.
"Are they together?" Just by looking at the ring, Yu's mother knew that the two were probably together.
Seeing her younger daughter's reaction to the phone call tonight, she knew they wouldn't be far from being together, and she never expected it to happen today.
"Hmm..." Yu Yunzhi shyly withdrew her hand from everyone's gaze. Despite being embarrassed, she still openly admitted to her relationship under the watchful eyes of her parents and sister.
There's no need to hide it from them; they are my closest people, and I'll find out sooner or later.
Even after admitting it, Yu Yunzhi still couldn't help but feel a flush rising on his face.
"Is it alright for him not to come home for the New Year?" Mr. Yu asked.
“He had his New Year’s Eve dinner at home before driving here.” Yu Yunzhi also asked Shao Wenyan this question, and Shao Wenyan told her that they had already finished their dinner together.
"Is he going back to Beijing today?" After driving for more than two hours and so late, Yu's mother asked worriedly, concerned about his safety.
"No, I'm not going back. I'll come with you tomorrow."
Today is January 1st, and tomorrow is January 2nd.
That evening, Shao Wenyan asked Yu Yunzhi when he would return to Beijing, and he would return at the same time, traveling together with Yu Yunzhi.
Yu Yunzhi planned to leave on the afternoon of the 2nd because he needed to go back to rehearse. In the afternoon, Tang Suihe told Yu Yunzhi that she had already made an appointment with Li Chuzhou, and they could rehearse as soon as Yu Yunzhi returned.
"Oh, leaving so early?" Yu's mother was reluctant to see her daughter leave. She had only been back for two days and hadn't even had a chance to rest before she had to leave again.
"I have a job, but once I finish that, I'll have more time! I'll be able to spend every day with you then, Mom, you'll probably find me annoying!"
"No worries, I'm too happy to even think about it."
"I left late, I didn't leave until the 3rd." Yu Luoyan rarely had a vacation, and she took a full three days off. She also wanted to take this opportunity to spend time with her parents.
"Oh, sis? You're taking such a long break this time! That's so unlike you."
Yu Luoyan didn't want to pay attention to her "naive and sweet" younger sister, so she reached out and flicked her forehead.
"Where is he sleeping tonight? Does he have a place to stay? He's already at your doorstep, Zhizhi, why don't you invite him in for a chat..."
The mother and her two daughters were being affectionate, but Mr. Yu couldn't get a word in edgewise; his attention was still focused on the previous incident.
Before Yu's father could finish speaking, Yu Luoyan interrupted him, saying, "Dad, what era are we living in? There are so many hotels around, we can book any one and stay there. Besides, it's 1 a.m., not 1 p.m.! Even the most ill-mannered person wouldn't come up to our house now."
"Never mind your dad, he just wants to see what his future son-in-law is like, he doesn't even care what time it is now." Yu's mother rolled her eyes at her husband helplessly. What kind of person is he? At his age, he's not as worldly-wise as his daughter.
Mr. Yu chuckled and wasn't annoyed at all.
"Zhizhi, ask Wen Yan when he's free and invite him over so your parents can prepare in advance." Yu's mother couldn't help but chime in after saying this to Yu's father.
She didn't want her father to go too far by asking him to come over now; she just wanted to meet her future son-in-law beforehand.
"Huh?..." Yu Yunzhi looked confused. What was going on? Hadn't she been here the whole time? How did things get to the point of meeting the parents?
“No need for that. Isn’t he coming to pick you up tomorrow to go back to Beijing? We can go out for a meal together then,” Yu Luoyan decided immediately.
There's no time like the present. They're all here now. I only knew about them online before, so I'll have to see what they're like in person.
She naturally needs to be very careful about her sister's boyfriend!
"Let me ask him first," Yu Yunzhi said hesitantly. It would be impolite to make the decision for Shao Wenyan directly; he should ask for his opinion first.
"Okay!" Yu Luoyan wasn't going to force them; they wouldn't eat him if they met him once.
It's okay if we don't see each other, there will be time next time. It's just that it's rare for everyone to be here these two days. I don't know when we'll be able to have everyone here again.
