On New Year's Eve, Murong Jin connected his computer directly to the internet and watched the figure appear on the other end.
"oh?"
Di Junlan was wearing only thin clothes. "Why don't you wear more?"
Di Junlan blushed. "No, I was just changing clothes and hadn't had time to put on my coat when your video came through, sister."
Two days ago, he was still wondering why his sister was ignoring him. It turned out she was away on a business trip. After explaining the situation to him, she even taught him how to use a tablet to make this cross-border video call...
Murong Jin's lips curled up. "Put your clothes on, or you'll get sick, and I won't be there for you."
"Okay~~ Don't worry, sister, I won't get sick." Di Junlan put on his coat in front of her, and then wrapped the scarf she had given him earlier around his neck.
Holding the tablet, she walked outside, saying, "Sister, let me show you where I live now."
"good."
After going downstairs, Murong Jin looked at the people appearing on the screen and said, "Uncle and Auntie, it's been a long time."
Emperor Huaijin: "Little Jin, it's been a long time."
Liu Anmu looked at her and said, "Long time no see, daughter-in-law. You've got Junlan all to yourself this year, so you'll definitely have him spend the New Year with you next year."
Murong Jin smiled and said, "Okay."
Junlan had told her before that since he hadn't been abroad to celebrate the New Year with the Di family for a long time, his parents had a deal to make here, so they decided to spend the New Year here and meet another member of the Di family who was in charge of overseas affairs.
After meeting those people, he naturally didn't miss Junlan's uncle and aunt. "Uncle and Aunt, are you well?"
"Alright, alright, I'll be troubling you with Junlan from now on, Xiao Jin."
Gu Chengze chimed in from the side, "You guys are making it sound like Junlan is going to get married someday."
Murong Jin's eyes were full of laughter, Di Junlan's face was full of shyness, and the others smiled without saying a word.
I understood the moment I saw this girl.
After Di Junlan left the living room, Di Huaijin was put on the shoulder by his brother, who said, "Your wife seems like someone not to be trifled with."
He felt a sense of oppression. Apart from that old guy Murong Zhi, Murong Jin gave him an even stronger sense of oppression than Murong Zhi.
Di Huaijin smiled and said, "You believe me now, right? You didn't believe me when I told you last time."
"I believe you." That girl is someone important.
He's only in his twenties, yet he already possesses this innate kingly aura...
"It seems I really will have to marry off my son in the future."
Emperor Huaijin: "It's worth it to have such a capable daughter-in-law."
"That's true... hahaha..."
Gu Chengze, who was eavesdropping nearby, was speechless.
A sense of oppression?
Anyone who can get Dad to say that must be really impressive.
Emperor Junlan has found a formidable woman.
I wonder if Murong Jin has another equally capable woman by his side, someone who also wants to be a kept man!
...
In the courtyard, Murong Jin looked at the person whose face was red from the cold and asked, "Why aren't you wearing a mask?"
Di Junlan: "It's not very cold."
"Is my sister in the study?"
Murong Jin stood up. "No, it's in the bedroom."
Then Di Junlan saw a pink bedroom and couldn't help but smile, "This must have been prepared by the nanny."
Murong Jin smiled as well, "That's right."
"My sister is celebrating New Year's Eve today, and I still need 13 hours here."
The time difference here is thirteen hours. So, if it's nighttime where my sister is, it's daytime here. If it's daytime on the first day of the Lunar New Year where my sister is, it's New Year's Eve here.
Murong Jin looked at him and said, "I'll take a picture of the New Year's Eve dinner and show it to you."
"good."
Emperor Junlan was very happy to see Murong Jin, so even after the video call ended, the smile on his face remained unchanged.
"Tsk tsk tsk."
Hearing that sarcastic voice, she looked over and asked, "Brother, are you jealous of me?"
Gu Chengze stood with his arms crossed beside him, "No, it's just that I'm wondering if you'll really be abandoned? You look like a little wife right now..."
Di Junlan: "That's good. Besides, if anything changes, we can still be together."
Gu Chengze looked at the serious-looking man and said, "Fine."
A wolf cub disguised as a little white rabbit.
"By the way, do you want to go out and have fun the day after tomorrow?"
"If you have fun here, your sister won't worry too much about you."
Emperor Junlan: "Okay."
...
During the New Year's Eve dinner, Murong Jin held a little baby on her lap and said, "Auntie, I want to eat that."
Murong Jin served him some food, saying, "Okay." Then she served the little boy next to her food as well, making sure he didn't miss any.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, while staying up late to welcome the new year, the adults all watched the year-end party skits...
She sat by the floor-to-ceiling window on the balcony, watching the fireworks soar into the sky.
With a click, Murong Jin glanced at the photos in the album; most of them had just been taken.
In the courtyard, Fu Er was setting off fireworks with the two little ones, while Jiu Jiu was playing around beside them.
Yun'er and Jiu Jiu get along very well, and they feel like they've known each other for a long time...
Murong Jin didn't know how they suddenly became good friends, but she thought it was a good thing.
If both of these people have conflicts, she won't know which one to deal with.
...
"Get up."
Di Junlan looked at Gu Chengze beside him, "How did you get in?"
“They went out to buy ingredients. My mom and your mom are going to cook today, so I think I need to prepare some stomach medicine in advance.”
Di Junlan: "...It's not that exaggerated, there's an auntie here."
Gu Chengze: "That's true."
He glanced at his phone and said, "But this picture, was it sent by Murong Jin?"
