Lin Yi searched in his pocket and found Li Chuhanâs house key.
After the invasion by Ito Mitsui, Li Chuhan changed the locks and gave Lin Yi a set of keys.
Hearing someone open the door and enter, Li Chuhan ran out of the study in a panic.
When she realized that it was Lin Yi, she was stunned.
âYou⦠why are you here? Arenât you accompanying your family?â
âArenât you part of my family?â
Li Chuhan bit her lip, her eyes filled with embarrassment.
âItâs the new year. Why are there no decorations at home?â âItâs just me here, so I didnât do anything,â Li Chuhan said softly. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhat did you have for lunch?â
âI made myself some food.â
Lin Yi looked at Li Chuhanâs study and saw an academic thesis open on the computer.
âWhy are you still reading a thesis during the new year?â âI have nothing to do. I just wanted to find something to do.â
âYou didnât buy any new clothes.â
âI have enough clothes, and Iâve only worn them a few times, soâ¦â Li Chuhan said, âBut I bought new underwear.â
Lin Yi smiled and handed over the bag in his hand. âSee if it fits.â
âHmm, did you buy it for me?â
Lin Yi nodded. âItâs the new year. You have to wear new clothes to celebrate the new year. â
âThank you,â Li Chuhan said with reddened eyes.
âSilly girl, why are you crying?â Lin Yi smiled. âLetâs see how it looks. I wasnât too picky in buying it.â
âI donât need to checkit. I like everything you buy.â
After Lin Yi arrived, and Li Chuhan gave herself a break.
The two of them did not do anything. They sat quietly on the sofa and watched television for a while.
Although the New Year programs were very boring, the company was good, so the quality of the programs no longer mattered.
Later on, Lin Yi and Li Chuhan made dumplings together.
However, Li Chuhan didnât have much talent in this area, so Lin Yi handled it the entire thing. She was only in charge of boiling the water.
After the dumplings were cooked, Li Chuhan brought the seasonings to the living room.
They ate dumplings together while watching the Spring Festival Gala.
Although the programs were very boring, Huaxians believed that this was an indispensable part of celebrating the new year.
If they did not have these shoes, the new yearâs celebrations would feel like something was missing.
âTry it and see if it tastes good.â
âYum, itâs delicious.â
âDonât just agree with me.â
âBut itâs delicious,â Li Chuhan said. âI feel that the chefs at the Huayan Restaurant canât even compare to you in cooking. You seem to know everything.â
âIâm happy to hear you praise me like that.â
Li Chuhan smiled sweetly, clear and bright.
At ten oâclock in the evening, Lin Yi looked at his watch.
âSleep early. Itâs the new year. Donât look at those documents anymore. Youâve worked hard the whole year. Give yourself a break.â
âGot it.â Li Chuhan said, âAre you leaving?â
Lin Yi nodded. âIâll be back in a few days.â
âYeah, you donât have to worry about me. When youâre free, just drop by and see me.â Li Chuhan said, âOr you can send me a WeChat message.â
âHow can I do that? I have to be fair.â
As he spoke, Lin Yi stroked Li Chuhanâs long hair and kissed her forehead.
âGo to bed. Iâll leave first.â
âIâll see you off. â âNo, stay home.â
âOkay, okay. Got it.â
After leaving Li Chuhanâs home and the apartment, Lin Yi looked up.
Just as he had expected, Li Chuhan was leaning against the window sill and looking at him.
Lin Yi waved his hand and hailed a taxi to the airport.
When he returned to the orphanage, it was already past two in the morning.
Guo Ningyue was already asleep, but Chen Xuanyu and the others were still playing. Wu Feiyue was scrolling through his tablet as if he was looking for job information.
Lin Yi brought a pot of tea over. âItâs the new year. Why are you focusing on this?â
âThere will be a lot of recruitment advertisements after the new year. I have to check them out in advance.â
Lin Yi looked at the phone and saw that it was filled with companies from Yangcheng.
âHave you decided to stay in Yangcheng?â
Wu Feiyue nodded. âOur parents are getting older day by day. Little Yue is a girl. After she gets married, itâs not right for her to constantly stay at her parentsâ house. If I stay here, I can take care of them better. You can also be at ease doing business in Zhonghai.â
Lin Yi smiled and poured Wu Feiyue a cup of tea.
The eldest brother in the family was always the most responsible one.
When he was young, he protected his younger siblings. When his younger siblings grew up, he protected his parents.
He didnât make much money but was always worried.
Lin Yi felt pleased having a brother like this.
âIs there a company you like?â
âDidnât you get me 100,000 yuan a few days ago? I still have more than 80,000 yuan in my pocket. I want to buy a second-hand truck so I can deliver goods. I will have more freedom in this way.â
âThat sounds fine. After all, itâs boring to work nine to five.
Lin Yi didnât say anything else about helping. His brother had his own path to walk, and he didnât want him to butt in.
The current situation was already very satisfactory.
âBrother, Mom wants you and Eldest Brother to sleep early. She said that she wants to bring you two out to do some house visits tomorrow , â Chen Xuanyu said.
âAlright, got it.â
This was all within Lin Yiâs expectations. Every year, he would visit his relatives like this.
To put it nicely, it was to improve the feeling between family.
To put it bluntly, it was to show-off.
However, the visitors didnât flaunt themselves. Instead, they flaunted their childrenâs success.
Lin Yi was already used to it and was well prepared for this.
Previously, when he was working at Chaoyang Group, he was already the focus of the entire village.
Now that he had opened a company, no one else could compete anymore.
âIâm going to sleep. You sleep early too,â Lin Yi stretched and called out.
âI wonât be going.â Wu Feiyue smiled and said.
âJust dress up handsomely tomorrow and make our parents proud.â
âWhy not?â
âWith my character, itâs not right for me participate in such an occasion.â
âThatâs not my call to make. You have to talk to our mother. I donât think sheâll agree though.â
Wu Feiyue smiled. âIâll tell her tomorrow.â
The next morning, when Lin Yi was in a daze, he felt a chill under the blanket.
Guo Ningyue lifted his blanket.
âWhat are you doing so early in the morning?â
Lin Yi felt that Guo Ningyue must have been possessed by He Yuanyuan.
They both had the habit of not letting others sleep in. âMom told you to get up quickly. Weâre going out today.â
âBut itâs only 6:00.â
âMom said to leave early. The journey is more than half an hour.â
After saying that, Guo Ningyue spun around on the spot. âBrother, what do you think of my Burberry coat? I have to say that my sister-in-law has good taste. Moreover, these boots look good with this coat.â
âI think you just want to leave early so that you can wear your branded clothes and show off.]â
