New Year's Eve in this world was completely different from He Zhichu's.
Lu Yuan finally returned from his honeymoon trip with Song Jinning.
After all, he used to be a person on the special front. Lu Yuan and Song Jinning left silently and didn't make a splash outside.
In order to make it easier for them to play and not be peeked at and watched, the two of them had disguised themselves.
They looked like a very ordinary middle-aged couple.
The two of them returned to the imperial capital a month ago and continued with their respective work.
After returning, Song Jinning moved to the West Mountain Villa far away. Her apartment on the Third Ring Road in the imperial capital only stayed there occasionally when she was too tired and didn't want to go back to the West Mountain.
At this time, Lu Yuan would come over from the West Mountain Villa to accompany her.
Although the two of them had been separated for a long time, now that they were husband and wife, they didn't feel unfamiliar at all. It was as if they had been together for many years.
He would do what she wanted to do for her without even asking.
And he didn't need to say anything. Song Jinning understood his intentions.
In addition, the two of them were older and less angry and arrogant than when they were young. They understood each other more and thought from another's perspective, so their married life was like a fish in water.
With the nourishment of a beautiful love and a harmonious marriage, Song Jinning was so beautiful that she was practically glowing. Lu Yuan's charm was even more astonishing. Even though she knew that he was married, she still couldn't stop his endless luck with women.
Lu Yuan wasn't annoyed. He had been doing business in the other world for so many years, so he knew how to deal with this kind of thing the best. If he didn't accept it, he wouldn't hurt the woman's face.
Song Jinning, on the other hand, never asked about this kind of thing because she also had a lot of peach blossoms. She was extremely annoyed by this. She didn't know how to deal with it, so most of the time, she pretended not to know and treated it coldly.
Now that they were married, she felt that it was quite useful to be able to pull Lu Yuan out to block it.
But when the two of them were together, they never used the fact that they had encountered peach blossoms as a joke to tease each other.
Because both of them believed in the same principle: you could refuse to accept other people's love, but you couldn't use this kind of love as a joke to mock it.
Doing so wouldn't make you look very popular. Instead, it would make people think that you were very lame.
The longer they spent together, the more they realized that they had the same attitude when it came to dealing with people. It was just that the way they handled things was different. After all, Lu Yuan and Song Jinning's personalities were actually very different.
However, they complemented each other and were happy and harmonious.
This year's New Year's Eve was the first New Year's Eve after Lu Yuan and Song Jinning got married. It was also the first New Year's Eve that Lu Yuan returned to this world after 18 years.
Both of them decided to celebrate.
Lu Yuan had been preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner since he returned from his honeymoon. He had bought a lot of ingredients. In order to ensure freshness, he had chosen to have some seafood delivered by air at a fixed time. It was only delivered at noon on New Year's Eve.
Song Jinning personally prepared the invitations and invited Lu Jin, Gu Nianzhi, and Huo Shaoheng over for the New Year's dinner.
Lu Jin was the first to arrive.
He came to the door with a bottle of French Bordeaux, '84.
Song Jinning personally opened the door for him. She smiled and took the red wine. "Professor Lu, you're early? What have you been up to recently? "
The funding for Lu Jin's personal laboratory had been approved, and the Institute of High Energy Physics was under construction. Lu Jin did not go to the Institute of High Energy Physics to teach anymore. He stayed at home and tinkered with his own laboratory.
He followed Song Jinning into the living room and said seriously, "I'm busy with the lab. I came early because I live close by. "
"Oh, right. You live in the West Mountain Villa now, right? Did Nianzhi transfer it to you? "Song Jinning made Lu Jin a cup of tea and placed it on the coffee table in front of him.
Lu Jin nodded and frowned. "I told her not to bother. Why is she going around? It's still hers in the end anyway. But Shaoheng insisted that she transfer it. "
Song Jinning understood and asked curiously, "You've already made a will?"
"Well, isn't that obvious? I have so much money, so of course I have to make a will. Otherwise, if anyone comes to fight with my girl for my inheritance, even if I die, I'll be so angry that I'll come back to life. "Lu Jin didn't think much of it and was as venomous as ever.
Song Jinning covered her mouth and laughed. "Professor Lu, it's New Year's today. Can we not talk about death?"
"Oh, sure." Lu Jin nodded and said seriously, "I'll be careful."
As soon as he entered Lu Yuan's house, he walked to the kitchen.
"Boss Lu, it's New Year's today. What delicious food did you prepare for us?" Lu Jin smelled the aroma of food before he even walked into the kitchen. His mouth immediately began to salivate as he prepared to digest the food.
Lu Yuan turned around to look at him and smiled. "Your favorite Buddha jumps over the wall."
"Buddha jumps over the wall?! You really made Buddha jumps over the wall again?! "Lu Jin was overjoyed.
He counted with his fingers. "The Buddha jumps over the wall that you made in the past required a total of 21 ingredients. They were Canadian thorny ginseng, Yellow Sea deep-sea wild abalone, Siamese shark fins, Cheir scallops, bass lips, long white turtle skirt, and deer tendons. There were also wild pigeon eggs, osmanthus duck, duck treasures, golden turtle gums, baby pigeons, Spanish Iberian black pork chops, pork belly, hoof tips, and tendons, as well as South China Sea razor clams, Jinhua ham, Middle Eastern lamb knuckles, dragon boat mushrooms, Jiangxi yellow mud bamboo shoots, and Icelandic eagle-beak chicken.
"Then, the different ingredients were cooked separately using methods such as frying, stir-frying, boiling, and deep-frying. Finally, the cooked ingredients were spread layer by layer into a large jar of Shaoxing wine. Then, the jar was sealed with lotus leaves and simmered over a gentle fire with white smoke and charcoal. It took a day and a night to stew the Buddha jumps over the wall, which was rich in soup and nutritious."
Taking a deep breath, Lu Jin sighed and said, "There are many restaurants that know how to make Buddha jumps over the wall, but there isn't a single gourmet like Boss Lu who has carefully selected ingredients from all over the world."
The recipe and menu of Buddha jumps over the wall were no longer a secret. Only the difference in ingredients could directly determine the taste of the food.
Song Jinning glanced at Lu Yuan's purchase list and clicked her tongue. "Professor Lu is really amazing. You even remember the names and places of origin of so many ingredients!"
"What's this?" Lu Jin curled his lips in disdain. "To me, this is just a glance. I was born with a photographic memory and have a photographic memory. "
The two of them chatted and laughed as they sat down in the dining room outside the kitchen. They chatted about the recent developments in the technology world as they waited for dinner.
Lu Jin secretly sent Gu Nianzhi a text message: [Girl, come quickly. I'll share the first incense of Boss Lu's Buddha jumps over the wall with you!]
Gu Nianzhi had just come out of the Senate building.
She had been very busy for the past two months and had almost worked overtime on New Year's Eve.
It was only when Speaker Long asked them to come back to work after the New Year that she packed her things and left.
After saying goodbye to Rong Mingxing at the entrance of the Senate, Gu Nianzhi immediately saw Huo Shaoheng standing at the bottom of the steps of the Senate building.
He crossed his arms and leaned against his black SUV bulletproof car, looking at Gu Nianzhi calmly.
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips into a smile and waved at Rong Mingxing. Then, she ran down the steps and threw herself into Huo Shaoheng's arms.
Huo Shaoheng caught her and kissed her on the cheek. He said lovingly, "Isn't our Chief Gu afraid of being secretly photographed?"
Gu Nianzhi smiled slyly. "It's the New Year, so there's a little benefit for those who secretly take photos."
"… Then what about my benefit?" Huo Shaoheng opened the car door and let Gu Nianzhi get in. When he fastened her seat belt, he took the opportunity to speak in a low voice in her ear and even bit her pink earlobe.
