101. Chapter 101 New Year’s Eve


Chapter 101 New Year’s Eve

What happened tonight was beyond expectations. Lian Li's mood was ups and downs. She was so sleepy now that she didn't want to think.

She opened her eyes in confusion, then closed them again when she saw a familiar figure.

Although she couldn't tell who the figure was, her instinct told her: it was familiar and safe.

Jin Shiyue knelt down on one knee, held Lian Li's face with one hand and looked at her for a while to make sure she was not pretending to sleep. He leaned over and picked up Lian Li. His steady and strong arms hooked her waist and legs, holding her tightly. Hold her gently in your arms.

Lian Li leaned in Jin Shiyue's arms and unconsciously stretched out her hands to hug his neck. She seemed to feel her cheeks were a little itchy and rubbed his shoulders.

Jin Shiyue carried her into the bedroom, noticed her movements, and glanced down.

Lian Li's sleeping face was so peaceful that the corners of his lips turned up.

Lian Li only felt that she was flying into the air, and she had to hold on tightly so as not to fall.

The next moment, the dream changes.

She lay on the soft cotton and habitually reached out to grab things and hug them in her arms. After hugging them, she turned over and changed into a comfortable position.

Jin Shiyue stood on the bedside and looked down at Lian Li, who was sleeping soundly with her arms in her arms. His slender fingers touched her hair that was scattered on her face. After a while, he turned off the light and left.

In the early morning, Lian Li woke up naturally. She had a comfortable sleep. She stretched out refreshed, her dark eyes rolled, and her consciousness returned.

Remembering that Jin Shiyue came to see her last night and was hidden by her, Lian Li got out of bed and stepped out of the bedroom with her shoes on. She walked around the house but didn't see Jin Shiyue.

He's probably gone.

Lian Li touched her phone and opened WeChat. There was no news from Jin Shiyue.

There are three unread messages from senior sister.

Xue Shufan: "I'm home~"

Xue Shufan: "Lili, I support you and the second young master being together."

Xue Shufan: "When you fall in love, it doesn't matter even if you don't end up together. Senior sister is waiting for you in the nursing home."

If Jin Shiyue can't even do the most basic thing of preventing Lian Li from getting hurt, then he has no right to like Lian Li.

Xue Shufan supports now because he got a promise. Although she doesn't have much emotional experience, she also knows that the unity of heart and action is true love.

Hurt is hurt, no amount of pain and affection can eliminate it.

Is this what senior sister said last night but was hesitant to say?

Lian Li tapped the wall of her phone with her fingertips and slowly typed a reply: "Nursing home: Don't come over.jpg"

After exiting the chat page with Xue Shufan, Lian Li casually swiped down the screen. The WeChat group has been very quiet these days.

Like Zhong Yang, they need to put away their cynicism outside and return home during the holidays, and face their elders of higher or lower status with good education and attitude.

Aristocratic families are usually based on the iteration of family power and wealth, and pay particular attention to etiquette and etiquette. During such a big festival as the New Year, they basically have to accompany their elders to meet guests and worship groups.

Lian Li replied to a few messages and then put down the phone.

Today, New Year's Eve, she changed her clothes, put on a coat, scarf and beret, and decided to go shopping near Tiananmen Square.

The central axis of the capital is full of the splendor of the 'World Heritage'. Qianmen Street is decorated with lanterns and colorful lanterns. The shape of the lanterns is pleasing to the eye. The atmosphere of the New Year atmosphere is very good. Most of the shops are closed. I walked around the two streets opposite the overpass. , took a few photos, and went into the bookstore to buy two books.

When night fell, she went to the New Year Prayer Temple Fair, watched handicrafts and folk performances, and even briefly learned to make a red lantern on the spot.

When Jin Yanting called, Lian Li was eating sugar-fired snacks. She pulled down her scarf to expose her chin, took out a Bluetooth headset from her pocket, put it on, and answered the call.

"Brother."

"Sister-in-law Zhang made glutinous rice dumplings and will deliver them to you later." Jin Yanting's voice sounded both strange and familiar.

Lian Li was stunned for a moment and responded: "Oh, okay." After finishing her shopping, she hung up the phone and took a taxi back to No. 21 Qingteng Road.

She took the elevator upstairs, turned the corner, and when she walked to the door of her home, she unexpectedly saw Jin Yanting.

Jin Yanting was wearing a high-end suit and a coat. He looked Lian Li up and down and asked, "Where have you been?"

"Went to the temple fair." Lian Li thought it was someone else delivering something, but he didn't expect it was Jin Yanting.

After entering the password to enter the house, Lian Li took off her scarf, turned on the heater, took the food box and put it on the dining table.

Jin Yanting looked at her back: "Have you eaten outside?"

Lian Li nodded: "Well, there are still many shops open outside."

Most of the time when Jin Yanting came to see her, there was nothing wrong. He would greet her as usual and Lian Li would answer her questions one by one.

Jin Yanting was sitting on the sofa, his long legs crossed, his left hand resting on his knee casually, holding a cigarette in his right hand and slowly taking a puff, looking at the little girl sitting upright through the mist.

"Have you often played with Zhong Yang recently?"

His voice was as gentle as ever, and Lian Li answered truthfully: "Senior Sister Shu Fan and Pei Qingji know each other, and Brother Zhong Yang happens to have a good relationship with Pei Qingji, and they occasionally get together inadvertently."

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Jin Yanting nodded lightly and said calmly: "Pay attention to your own safety."

Lian Li: "Okay."

Jin Yanting basically stayed with her for half an hour, and this time too. When the time was almost up, He Shu came to the door with a beautiful gift box in his hand and handed it to Lian Li: "Miss Lian, this is the New Year's gift prepared by Mr. Jin."

Lian Li turned around and glanced at Jin Yanting, whose expression was calm.

"Thank you, brother." Lian Li thanked them and asked them to wait for a while. She went into the bedroom, opened the drawer on the left side of the dressing table and took out a square box and a red envelope.

The square box was a custom-made New Year's gift for Jin Yanting in advance at the end of last year. If he didn't give her a gift, there was no need for her to return the gift.

After all, that would make her seem particularly interested.

Lian Li handed the gift box to Jin Yanting with a smile on her face: "Brother, return the gift."

Jin Yanting opened it and took a look. Inside was a custom-made pen. He reached out and rubbed Lian Li's head.

Lian Lizheng turned around and gave the red envelope in his hand to He Shu. He didn't notice Jin Yanting's movements and did not avoid it.

He Shu: "Thank you, Miss Lian."

Jin Yanting returned to the Jin family's old house to have New Year's Eve dinner with his family and did not stay any longer.

Maybe because Jin Yanting wasn't a talkative person, after he left, Lian Li didn't feel that the room suddenly became empty, nor did he feel like he had plummeted.

She put the gift on the coffee table, turned on the TV to watch the Spring Festival Gala, and turned around to take a hot bath.

Come out of the bathroom, dry your hair, walk to the living room, sit on the sofa and watch the Spring Festival Gala and the photos taken today.

She is wearing a red scarf today, a very festive color, which complements the red lanterns behind her, giving it a strong New Year flavor.

Lian Li was bored, clicked into the circle of friends, and scrolled.

Xue Shufan sent a group of photos. She was holding her uncle's arm and wearing high heels given to her by Lian Li. Her heroic appearance contained a bit of charm.

Lian Li clicked "Like" and glanced at the upper left corner of the phone screen.

Time 22:50.

There are still one hour and ten minutes left until the new year.

This year, she is still the only one celebrating the New Year.
