Tong Yexin's desire to share is off the charts.
She definitely won't be able to sleep tonight if she doesn't talk to someone about this today.
The person she trusted most was Qin Yue.
She told Qin Yue about all the farces that happened at the Tong family that night.
One voice message after another.
Qin Yue couldn't even keep up with the voice-to-text conversion.
The punctuation marks following the text are all exclamation marks.
Qin Yue could sense her excitement and exhilaration even through the screen.
I don't know if he was excited that the Tong family elders had broken off relations, or excited that his older brother had found a man-eating little white rabbit.
While watching TV, Qin's father heard Qin Yue's phone constantly beeping and snorted, "Isn't that brat surnamed Lu going to have New Year's Eve dinner with the family? Why can't he stop making a sound?"
It's past nine o'clock. Why are we having New Year's Eve dinner at this hour?
Qin Yue put her phone on silent and continued to convert voice messages to text. Looking at the message from Tong Yexin, she said, "It wasn't him who sent it. They were all New Year's greetings from my friends."
That's not entirely untrue.
New Year's greetings are being sent in groups large and small.
Zhou Jiahe changed all the group names to "Red Envelope Battle".
Several people were playing a game of grabbing red envelopes in the group chat.
The person with the largest amount should send a red envelope containing an even larger amount than the one they received.
The person who gets the smallest amount has to shower the person who sent the red envelope with compliments, and everyone has to agree that it's acceptable.
Qin Yue sponsored a large red envelope for everyone but did not participate.
Everyone in the company who had her contact information sent their blessings to Qin Yue. Regardless of whether it was a group message or not, Qin Yue was obliged to reply to each message.
Qin's father made it clear that he did not believe it.
Qin's mother rolled her eyes at him: "What kind of expression is that? Are you really going through menopause? You even care about a conversation. Whether it's a message from the Lu family boy or not is none of your business. Just focus on your comedy sketch."
Qin Yue watched the two bickering and shook her head helplessly.
Looking down at the phone screen, I saw the cold, impersonal text and sighed inwardly.
She asked, "Where is Tong Yexin?"
Tong Yexin sent her a location: "At home, what's up? Are you worried that I'm having a miserable New Year and want to come and take me away from this troublesome place?"
Tong Yexin: But forget it, I'm going to stay and watch the show. It's so much fun right now, and my sister-in-law is here too. I want to see what she's up to.
Qin Yue: I ordered you a meal, pick it up later.
Tong Yexin: She even considered that I hadn't eaten! She truly is the thoughtful darling Jiahe described! [winking emoji]
Tong Yexin: What I said is true, my sister-in-law is knocking on my door. I'll talk to her later.
Tong Yexin was about to open the door after hanging up the phone when she remembered something.
She also had a voice recorder in her bag.
It was specially prepared in response to the farce that happened not long ago.
She turned on the voice recorder and placed it under her pillow.
Being stupid or shrewd is not scary; what's scary is pretending to be weak while actually being strong.
It's always good to be careful.
After Shen Zhihe came in, she simply handed her the milk she was carrying and said sweetly, "The house is so messy today, the housekeeper didn't have time to cook, so I specially boiled some milk for Awang. I thought my little sister probably hadn't eaten, so I brought you a cup along."
Tong Yexin glanced at her and said, "It's just the two of us now, so you can speak freely, sister-in-law."
"Why can't I understand what my sister is saying?"
Despite her feigned confusion, Shen Zhihe maintained her obedient and timid persona.
However, his expression was completely different.
It was obvious to everyone that she was just pretending to be innocent.
Tong Yexin had seen well-behaved people, she had seen bad people, and she had seen people who were cunning and wicked like this before.
Trying to outsmart her? Sorry, Tong Yexin isn't one to be trifled with.
She's the type of person who likes to let the other party reveal their hand first.
"Looking at you, you seem a bit dim-witted, it's normal that you don't understand." Tong Yexin took the milk from her hand and waved to her, "Thanks."
Shen Zhihe: "...Sister's words are so hurtful."
Tong Yexin gave a forced smile: "Then let Tong Wang'an comfort your wounded little heart. Good night."
The door closed right in front of Shen Zhihe.
A glint flashed in Shen Zhihe's eyes. When she turned around again, she was back to her usual naive and innocent self, wearing her heart on her sleeve. She had been turned away here and was looking for her A-Wang to comfort her wounded heart.
...
Tong Yexin: Nothing was gained.
"That woman was good at pretending. She even brought me milk, but I didn't dare drink it. Who knows if it was poisoned?"
"I've never met her before, so I have no idea what she means."
"For a moment, I even wondered when I had incurred a debt of love."
"I received the food."
"Why is there another bouquet of flowers? I really like flowers."
...
Tong Yexin sent several messages in a row, but Qin Yue didn't see them.
Lu Yanci called her.
They said he was right outside the Qin family's gate.
Qin Yue put on her coat, tossed her silent phone into her bag, and left the house, ignoring her mother's teasing gaze.
She didn't ask Lu Yanci where he was going to take her.
Thinking about the New Year, going to see a movie or waiting by the river to watch the fireworks show would be nice, but I didn't expect Lu Yanci to take me to the busiest street.
The streets were adorned with festive red lanterns, creating a joyous and lively atmosphere. People strolled along the pedestrian street, each with a happy smile on their face.
Lu Yanci seemed quite interested in these streets full of life. He saw a young couple wearing scarves, holding her hand as they bought two red scarves.
He carefully helped her wrap the scarf around her neck, the scarf covering most of her face, making her exposed eyes appear even larger and brighter. He simply hung the scarf around his neck and then asked her to help him adjust it.
This counts as matching couple outfits.
Seeing that there were hot chestnuts for sale, the two bought half a pound. Qin Yue peeled one, raised her hand and fed it to Lu Yanci's mouth. The man ate it from her hand.
"Hello, excuse me."
A trendy-looking man with a camera around his neck and smoky gray hair blocked their way. There was another person recording a video next to him.
"Are you a couple? I'm a professional street photographer. Would it be convenient for me to take a set of photos for you?"
"Need not."
"It's free, no money required. All you need to do is agree to show your face in my video and agree to let me post your photos online."
Lu Yanci refused the man's request. When the man tried to continue, Lu Yanci stared intently at the camera and said calmly, "You have already disturbed us. If the subsequent videos are posted online for profit, it will be an infringement of my portrait rights."
A fleeting look of embarrassment crossed the man's face upon hearing this.
I was thinking of giving them some money, but after hearing this, I could only give up awkwardly.
After the two left, the photographer whispered to the man with smoky gray hair, "Should we include this in the video editing?"
