Alright, Tang Moxi had the task of greeting and exchanging pleasantries.
Her responsibility was simply to smile.
The return banquet was filled with liveliness.
Their home had over ten tables, and they invited relatives, neighbors, and colleagues from the company.
After Liuli and Tang Moxi finished eating, they had to leave.
They entrusted the remaining hospitality to their parents.
Liuli had been enjoying her meal happily a moment ago.
However, now that she had to leave, her head immediately drooped.
She wished she could stay a little longer!
âLiuli, come back tomorrow and visit Grandma and Grandpa for the New Year!â Tang Moxi comforted her.
âCan you come back tomorrow?â Liuli asked Tang Moxi in surprise.
âOf course!â Tang Moxi nodded, smiling.
âThen Grandma, Dad, Mom, Iâll come back to see you tomorrow!â
âRemember to save some New Yearâs money for me. 1â11 come back tomorrow to collect it!â Liuli immediately smiled brightly, looking at Grandma and her parents.
The sadness of leaving home a moment ago disappeared!
âYouâre still talking about red envelopes? Youâre already married. Youâre an adult, yet youâre still thinking about red envelopes!â Lin Yu scolded Liuli, caught between laughter and tears.
âCanât I ask for red envelope money even after getting married?â Liuli blurted out.
âYes, yes. Come back tomorrow. Iâm prepared,â Grandma Yu said with a smile.
âGrandma, thatâs great. Itâs cold outside, so donât stay out for too long.â
ii
Iâll go back first. Iâll come back tomorrow.â
âDonât miss me too much!â
âGot it. Be careful on the road!â Lin Yu replied, smiling.
âLiuli, be good!â Yu Zhiyuan couldnât help but remind her.
Liuli almost rolled her eyes!
Dad, why do you look like youâre coaxing a three-year-old child!
âI know, I know. Weâre going back!â Liuli could only nod.
âDad, Mom, Grandma, weâll go back first!â
âHappy New Year, Grandma. And stay healthy!â
âI also wish Dad and Mom good health and for everything to go according to your wishes!â Tang Moxi said.
âJingxing, itâs the same for you. Happy New Year. Live well with Liuli and have a good relationship with her,â Yu Zhiyuan replied, smiling.
âThank you, Dad!â Tang Moxi replied.
Tang Moxi brought Liuli into the car.
Liuli was quite happy that she could come back tomorrow. Grandma even gave her New Yearâs money.
However, after getting into the car, she became a little unhappy.
She turned around and looked at Grandma and her parents outside the car. She couldnât help but wave her hand.
The Tang family left the Yu familyâs residence.
Liuli could no longer see Grandma, her parents, and their villa. Only then did she turn around with a lonely expression.
Tang Moxi hugged her and brought her into his arms. He held her hand with one hand but did not say anything.
He was just comforting her in this way!
Liuli didnât feel sad for long. After all, she could go home tomorrow.
It was just that she couldnât have a reunion dinner with her family at night.
This was the first time in 18 years that she did not have a reunion dinner with her family.
She had become a member of the Tang family and was about to spend New Yearâs Eve in the Tang family!
Liuli sat up and turned to look at Mr. Tang.
Then, she said with a serious expression,
âYou canât bully me in the future!â
Tang Moxi smiled.
âHave 1 ever bullied you before?â
Liuli thought for a moment. Although Mr. Tang often pushed her, it seemed that he did it for her own good.
Like making her exercise and translating.
Then, he had no choice but to marry her!
It seemed that Mr. Tang had never bullied her before!
âAnyway, you canât bully me in the future!â Liuli said shamelessly.
âNo!â Tang Moxi rubbed Liuliâs hair and replied.
âBy the way, donât touch my head!â Liuli suddenly thought of something and pulled Tang Moxiâs hand down to emphasize.
âOkay!â Tang Moxi agreed directly.
âAnd you have to treat me well too. You canât make me angry. You have to agree to everything I ask of you,â Liuli continued.
âAlright, but the condition is that 1 can do it. For example, if you want me to pluck the stars, thereâs not much I can do!â Tang Moxi replied with a faint smile.
âIâm not that childish!â Liuli pouted.
âSure, as long as itâs within my capabilities,â Tang Moxi replied. âIs there anything else?â
âNot for now. Iâll let you know if something comes up!â
Can I ask the same of you?â Tang Moxi asked, smiling.
ii
No!â Liuli immediately replied.
âWhy?â Tang Moxi raised his eyebrows.
Was it only acceptable for state officials to start fires, but not for commoners to light the lamps?
âBecause I married you, not the other way around.â
âYou see, now that Iâm married to you, I have to leave my home and live in yours. Iâll be separated from my family.â
âAnd my mom wonât give me any red envelopes.â
âHow pitiful is that?â
âAre you going to be twice as good to me?â
âAnd youâll never make me angry.â
âAnd youâll never refuse anything I ask of you.â
âAnd youâll agree to everything 1 want,â Liuli stressed, being serious.
âPerhaps you can look at it from another perspective.â
âWhen you get married, youâll gain another home. The Tang family and the Yu familyâs residence will be your home.â
âYouâll have the warmth of a home and the care of your family.â
âAnd, of course, the New Yearâs money will also double because Grandpa will give you some too!â Tang Moxi comforted.
âWhy are you the only one here?â Liuli inquired as she walked over.
âTheyâve all gone inside. Iâm the sole person waiting for you here, and Iâm freezing!â
âTo me, youâre still the best!â Liuli smiled and grasped Lin Jingqiâs hand. âAre there many classmates around?â
âBasically, everyone who came back is here!â
âThatâs great! Letâs quickly go inside. Itâs so cold!â Liuli replied.
As they were about to enter the Sichuan Restaurant, Liuli caught a glimpse of Mr. Tangâs car slowly driving over.
She promptly pretended not to see it and held Lin Jingqiâs arm as they made their way into the restaurant.
As soon as she stepped inside, she felt warmth enveloping her.
âWeâre seated on the second floor!â Lin Jingqi informed her.
âWait, who are you giving the money to?â Liuli asked.
âThe labor committee member!â
âWhoâs the labor committee member? Oh, itâs Huang Hong. I almost forgot.â Liuli quickly recalled.
After the two of them ascended to the second floor,
Everyone greeted them.
âLiuli, Jingqi, come over here.â
âWe only need two more!â
âHaha, looks like weâre quite popular. Letâs have a little competition. Whoever wins will get Jingqi and me!â Liuli chuckled.
âThen you and Jingqi can go to table 5!â someone replied.
Then, everyone burst into laughter.
âTable 5, which table is it?â Liuli asked, looking puzzled.
After scanning the room, he realized that Table 5 was occupied by male students!
âCome on, come on!â Liang Lidong responded with a smile.
âDream on!â Liuli replied bluntly, then pulled Lin Jingqi to sit at a table near the girls.
âTake attendance and shout when you arrive!â The class monitor said cheerfully, standing in front with the name list.
âWhy does it feel like weâre back in school? Thereâs even roll call!â someone murmured.
The room filled with laughter.
Once the class monitor finished the count, everyone was mostly present, except for a few who hadnât returned to school.
Shi Shi didnât show up either. Everyone knew she had only gotten married a few days ago.
Liuli had also heard from Lin Jingqi that on Shi Shiâs wedding day, not many students attended. Most of the attendees were class representatives and a few close classmates.
âNow that everyone is here, letâs serve the dishes! Enjoy your meal to the fullest. We wonât leave until weâre completely satisfied.â
âAnd at the same time, I wish you all a fantastic New Year. May the men become more handsome, and the women even more beautiful!â
âClass Rep, whatâs your wish?â someone asked.
âNot much, just hoping to bask in the glory and become even prettier,â the class monitor replied while touching his face.
Laughter echoed through the room once again.
It was time for the food to be served.
Naturally, everyone engaged in conversation while enjoying the meal.
âLiuli, I thought you hadnât arrived yet. Your phone was switched off!â Yang Xue remarked.
âReally? Iâve already turned on my phone!â Liuli responded, sounding perplexed.
âShe must have been calling your old number!â Lin Jingqi chimed in with a smile.
âOh, that explains it. After 1 arrived, I switched to a local SIM card.â
âI even sent a group message to inform everyone. Didnât you receive it?â
âNo, I think I must have changed my number too. And you changed yours as well. Thatâs why we didnât receive each otherâs messages!â
âHaha, thatâs quite likely!â Liuli replied, smiling.
âLiuli, howâs your university?â someone asked.
H
Itâs going well!â
âHow did your final exams go?â
âDonât even mention it. Itâs a sore spot for me. I scored 59 in English!â
âNo way! You were always good at English!â
âWell, as our Miss King used to say, we can have all the fun we want in university, right?â
âI went a bit too far and only crammed at the last minute, relying on divine intervention during the exam. In the end, I failed the English test.â
âSeems like your university sets challenging questions. 1 only started studying in the last week. I was barely skimming the surface.â
Everyone discussed their university experiences one by one.
Eventually, the conversation naturally turned to relationships, and someone asked if Liuli had a boyfriend.
At that moment, Liuli was taking a bite of fish and nearly choked.
She couldnât speak, only gesturing with her hand to indicate that she didnât have one yet.
Indeed, she was married, but she had never been in a romantic relationship or had a boyfriend!
âLiuli, do you have a boyfriend?â someone asked in surprise.
11
No way, I donât!â Liuli panicked and exclaimed.
âThen why did you raise your hand?â the classmate laughed.
âI was just waving my hand to say that 1 donât!â Liuliâs eyes welled up with tears.
âItâs okay. We have a few couples in our class!â someone said with a smile.
âWho? Who are they?â Liuli asked immediately, filled with curiosity.
Although there were a few adorable pairs in their third year of high school,
At that time, they were busy with studies and the teachers were strict.
No one wanted to attract attention.
Even if they were in a relationship, they kept it secret.
âJingqi, are you the first one to confess?â
âWhen did I do that?â Lin Jingqiâs head was already lowered, but now she blushed.
âDonât tell me it was you!â
âIt was you!â
âClass monitor, your wife is being bullied,â someone interrupted.
âWho? Who bullied her!â The class monitor immediately stood up and craned his neck to ask.
The room erupted in laughter..
