"Oh?" Gu Nianzhi was shocked. "Why are you spending the New Year alone? You … "
Gu Nianzhi was about to say that Song Jinning had a son and a husband, but she immediately remembered she couldn't say that.
Huo Shaoheng's son had to be on duty during the New Year and might even have to go down to the village to greet the soldiers.
Huo Guanchen was her ex-husband and they had a falling out a long time ago, so it was impossible for them to spend the New Year together. Huo Guanchen was also a general and the director of the political department. He would also be out during the New Year and wouldn't be able to spend the New Year with her.
Song Jinning's father had passed away in that accident 18 years ago.
So Song Jinning was like her: she was actually all alone.
She didn't have any family to begin with, so it wasn't like she had lost them.
Song Jinning, on the other hand, had a family, but it was like she didn't have one.
Thinking about it, it was actually worse than her.
Gu Nianzhi treated Song Jinning even better because of this.
Also, when the great beauty smiled and said that she was "all alone," Gu Nianzhi immediately wanted to spend the New Year with her.
Okay, okay, okay, I'll agree to anything you say …
Gu Nianzhi hurriedly took a shower and changed into the clothes she had prepared for the New Year.
She was wearing Chanel's latest bright red flower skirt, paired with a dark brown Burberry slim-fit sheepskin coat, and a pair of knee-high high-heeled boots with a wool lining inside. It was a rare pair of high-heeled boots in UGG that had a sense of fashion.
She grabbed the red Hermes Berline bag that Huo Shaoheng had bought for her and put her phone, car keys, card, and wallet inside. She also put in a pair of sunglasses, a pack of tissues, and a piece of chocolate before following Song Jinning out.
"Auntie Song, did you drive here?" Gu Nianzhi looked around and didn't see Song Jinning's car.
Song Jinning shook her head with a smile. "I took a taxi. It's so convenient now. Let's take another one."
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
"Then let's take my car."
Gu Nianzhi took Song Jinning to the underground parking lot.
"Oh, this is your car? It's so beautiful, it matches your outfit today! "Song Jinning couldn't stop praising it.
Gu Nianzhi suddenly remembered that Huo Shaoheng had given her the car. She blushed but still said, "This is Huo Shao's car. Auntie, if you like it, you can take it."
She purposely didn't mention that Huo Shaoheng had "gifted" it to her. If she did, Song Jinning would never accept it.
But even if she didn't say it, Song Jinning wouldn't want it.
She smiled and said, "There's no need. I'm in the lab every day and rarely use the car. You should drive. Besides, this car suits you so well. Even the door has your name on it. "
Gu Nianzhi blushed.
I forgot about that …
She smiled sheepishly and opened the car door for Song Jinning to get in. Then she got into the driver's seat.
The interior of the bright red sports car was completely black, and the red and black corresponded with each other. It was indeed very eye-catching, and one could tell at a glance that it was expensive.
Song Jinning carefully looked at the decorations in the car and immediately understood that this car was definitely her son's handiwork …
The interior didn't look like a little princess at all. Instead, it was simple and low-key. Everything focused on comfort and cleanliness.
Song Jinning clicked her tongue and thought about how to help her son fill in the gaps and win back Gu Nianzhi's maiden heart …
Gu Nianzhi didn't know what Song Jinning was planning. She was just a little nervous.
Because Song Jinning was sitting in the car, she drove especially carefully.
Fortunately, it was New Year's Eve, so there was no traffic on the roads.
She followed Song Jinning's directions and smoothly drove all the way to Song Jinning's newly bought apartment.
Of course, the location was top-notch. It was an apartment on the Third Ring Road of the Imperial Capital with excellent privacy and environment. It was also in the same building as the apartment that Huo Shaoheng had bought for Gu Nianzhi …
Gu Nianzhi muttered to herself, "Is this really not a coincidence?"
Song Jinning didn't seem to know that Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng used to have a "love nest" here. She even enthusiastically introduced the apartments to her.
"Nianzhi, your apartment in Hepingli is not bad, but it's fine when you're a student. Will it be inconvenient if you still live there when you're working? Why don't you move in here and live with me? "Song Jinning warmly invited her.
"Look, I have a lot of rooms here." Song Jinning showed Gu Nianzhi around one by one.
Indeed, her apartment was much bigger than the one that Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng used to live in. It was a duplex and had a total of six bedrooms, two study rooms, four bathrooms, and a living room large enough to hold a ball. There were also two dining rooms and two kitchens.
There was a small kitchen upstairs, and the main kitchen downstairs.
Gu Nianzhi was amazed. She didn't even dare to ask how much the apartment cost …
As Song Jinning spoke, she took her to a bedroom on the second floor facing south.
As soon as she opened the door, Gu Nianzhi was almost blinded by the pink, princess-themed decor.
"Nianzhi, this is the room I specially reserved for you." Song Jinning took her hand. "It's okay even if you and Shaoheng don't work out. I like you. Anyway, if you do, you'll be my daughter-in-law. If not, you'll be my goddaughter and have to call me mom. "
Gu Nianzhi's eyes immediately reddened.
This kind of love from a female elder was too precious to her.
Back at Ma Qiqi's home, she had secretly envied Ma Qiqi's mother …
"Mom?" Gu Nianzhi couldn't help but try calling out.
Her plump, curvy lips were tightly pressed together. The tip of her tongue pressed against her teeth, and she gently spat out a syllable. The sound broke through her lips, like sesame glutinous rice balls rolling in water, then scooped up and placed in her mouth. It was so delicious and sweet.
"You're my daughter!" Song Jinning hugged her shoulders, also a bit moved. "I used to dream of having a daughter, but I didn't think I'd have a son like Shaoheng. After that, I didn't have the chance to have another child anymore. "
Gu Nianzhi didn't say a word. She hugged Song Jinning's arm tightly and leaned her head on her shoulder. Her love for Song Jinning was obvious.
Song Jinning pulled her inside and walked around the apartment. "Nianzhi, you can stay here, okay? After the New Year, you can move your things here. I don't usually come back anyway. I live in the dormitory at the Physics Institute. It's no different from you living alone. "
Although Gu Nianzhi was very attached to the feeling Song Jinning gave her, she still declined.
"Auntie, don't worry. I'll come visit you after the holidays." Gu Nianzhi pulled Song Jinning out of the room. "What are we eating for New Year's Eve dinner today?"
Song Jinning smiled. "I'll make some fried rice and send it over to Shaoheng. He loved my fried rice when he was young. "
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
Was it really okay to only eat fried rice for New Year's?
Gu Nianzhi realized that someone was even more ignorant than she was. She didn't think she was looking down on her. Instead, she thought Song Jinning was even more adorable.
This Madam Song was such a wonderful person.
Gu Nianzhi looked at Song Jinning and couldn't help thinking that such a beauty was really going to dedicate her entire life to scientific research.
"Nianzhi, can you send it over for me later?" Song Jinning turned on the rice cooker to cook first, then went to prepare the ingredients for the fried rice.
Gu Nianzhi looked at Song Jinning's fridge and saw that there were plenty of ingredients. She took out two T-bone steaks, melted the butter in a pan, and began frying the steaks.
Steak was a dish that mainly relied on the ingredients. If the ingredients were good, the dish was basically a success.
Heat control wasn't important, and it could be cooked as well as it was needed.
Gu Nianzhi made two large T-bone steaks for Huo Shaoheng. They were medium rare, and she squeezed some lemon and pear juice onto the steaks. The aroma instantly hit their nostrils.
Even Song Jinning, who was cooking the fried rice, couldn't stop praising it and asked Gu Nianzhi to make a few more steaks later.
Of course, Gu Nianzhi agreed readily.
The two worked together and quickly made fried rice and steaks. Gu Nianzhi also brought a box of washed organic blueberries as fruit. She placed them in a food container and sent it to Huo Shaoheng.
