Yan Beicheng saw that her face was red from hiding under the blanket. Now that she was exposed, she was panting heavily. He pinched the tip of her nose and kissed her on the lips before leaving.
Lin Chu took advantage of Yan Beicheng's absence to quickly clean up.
She also found a new toothbrush for Yan Beicheng to use when he came back. After a while, she heard the doorbell ring. When she opened the door, she saw Yan Beicheng in a suit, holding soy milk and youtiao in one hand and a paper bag in the other.
Lin Chu took the breakfast and was curious about the paper bag when she saw Yan Beicheng take out a set of clean clothes and explain, "I've been keeping it in the trunk."
Lin Chu: "…"
She felt that he had planned to take the opportunity to enter the house with her and sleep here.
Yan Beicheng went to change while Lin Chu brought the breakfast to the kitchen. She took out bowls and plates, filled the soy milk and youtiao, and quickly mixed two small cold dishes.
Just as she was about to bring it out, she felt that the small kitchen space had suddenly become smaller. She turned around and saw Yan Beicheng walking in.
Lin Chu felt that she was very useless. She had been doing it very quickly, but when Yan Beicheng appeared, she seemed to be unable to do anything. She even almost spilled the bowl of soy milk.
Yan Beicheng didn't say anything and took the two bowls of soy milk from her hands. "It's hot. I'll carry it."
The two bowls of soy milk were in his hands, but he didn't turn around. Instead, he quickly lowered his head and kissed her on the lips before leaving.
Lin Chu didn't know how she brought the cold dishes to the dining table. When she sat down, she saw that Yan Beicheng didn't eat. Just as she was wondering, Yan Beicheng raised his eyebrows. "Where's the youtiao?"
Lin Chu: "…"
She forgot!
Lin Chu's face was red and she was especially embarrassed. She quickly buried her head and ran back to the kitchen.
After bringing the youtiao over, Yan Beicheng picked one up and ate it while looking at her face with a faint smile. He was laughing at her!
Lin Chu flew into a rage and kicked him under the table. "Aren't you annoying? Is it fun to laugh at me!"
Yan Beicheng wanted to nod, but seeing that Lin Chu was really embarrassed, he took the soy milk and sat next to her. "I'm not joking, don't be angry!"
When Lin Chu saw him carefully apologizing, he was no longer angry. He couldn't help but smile.
Yan Beicheng didn't move back. He just sat there and said, "I went back to the old mansion yesterday. The two elders know about you and really want to meet you."
Although Lin Chu was nervous, he really wanted to meet Yan Beicheng. After getting the affirmation from Yan Beicheng's family, he didn't reject it. "Then when is a suitable time?"
"It's Chinese New Year next week, and there are too many people coming to visit us on the first day of the year. There's no way for us to sit down and have a good chat. The two elders hope to see you as soon as possible. How about the second day? "Yan Beicheng didn't dare to tease Lin Chu. He was also anxious to see his parents, so he spoke very seriously.
Lin Chu thought for a moment, then nodded. "Okay. Then … what are the hobbies and hobbies of the Old Master and the Old Madam? "
She didn't need to go around giving New Year's greetings. Most of her colleagues in the company had gone home for the New Year. Not many people stayed in B City. Her boss was Wei Zilin, so she didn't need to deliberately curry favor with him.
When she was free on the first day of the year, she could go pick out gifts for the two elders.
"The Old Master doesn't have any other hobbies, but he likes to grow flowers and plants. He usually buys some flowers and plants to take care of. When he sees a good-looking flower pot, he will buy it regardless of the material. As for the Old Madam, she likes to watch the TV series that young people like. Anyway, she likes to watch the TV series that are popular recently. Other than that, she has no other hobbies, "Yan Beicheng said. Seeing Lin Chu's conflicted look, he smiled and asked, "What gift are you thinking about bringing?"
Lin Chu nodded. "I have to think about it. It's easy to get the Old Master's gift. I just need to go to the Flowers, Birds, and Fish Market. But what should I buy for the Old Madam?"
"The Old Madam is like Ning Bai. She collects whatever she likes. Ning Bai likes to watch cartoons and is always thinking of ways to get his family to buy figurines for him. The Old Madam occasionally goes shopping. If she sees the TV series she likes, she will buy some back. But the Old Madam is old and doesn't shop much, so she didn't buy much. I'll get Zuo Qiu to buy some later. We can bring them over. The Old Madam will be happy. "
Lin Chu nodded. He didn't insist on buying it himself or anything. Yan Beicheng took the initiative to be considerate. She didn't want to reject his good intentions.
On New Year's Eve, the company gave her an early holiday. Xu Moyan also went home two days earlier. So, she went to the orphanage early.
When she was young, she looked forward to the New Year. It wasn't because of new clothes or good food. The Lin family wouldn't put that experience on her. At that time, her clothes were all worn by Lin Yuwen. Su Changxin felt that no matter how rich the Lin family was, they didn't want to waste too much on Lin Chu. It was enough to provide for her food, clothing, and school.
So, Lin Chu never looked forward to new clothes for the New Year. She liked the New Year because the Lin family and the surrounding neighbors would set off fireworks during the New Year. All kinds of fireworks bloomed in the air. It was especially beautiful.
Now that she was old, she didn't pay attention to the custom of wearing new clothes during the New Year. Usually, when she lacked something, she would buy it. She had enough clothes to wear. This year, she bought a new sweater and brought it to the orphanage.
On the way, she also bought some fireworks to show the children at night.
Although the atmosphere of the New Year was a lot weaker now, and the adults didn't feel anything special, the children were still very excited. They excitedly woke up early in the morning. They all leaned on the window of the living room to watch. Some children were really too short, so they even stepped on short stools.
When Lin Chu entered the courtyard, he saw a few little radish heads leaning on the window, revealing a row of little heads. He couldn't help but laugh.
Mo Jinxi excitedly shouted, "Chu Chu!"
He was the first to rush out. The children behind him all reacted and followed closely behind.
"Chu Chu, you're here!" Mo Jinxi said excitedly. He took the fireworks from Lin Chu's hands with the other children.
"Is this going to be set off tonight?" Stone hugged a big firework, filling up the space in his arms.
"Yes, after we finish our New Year's Eve dinner, we can set off some before the New Year's Gala starts. Later, when there are singing and dancing performances, we can set off some that you don't like. It won't affect your time to watch the crosstalk and skits, "Lin Chu said with a smile and patted Stone's little head.
Stone was the same age as Mo Jinxi. The two of them went to the same elementary school, and they were even in the same class.
At this age, the children already had their own favorite stars, but they still didn't like traditional singing and dancing performances. They liked to watch crosstalk and skits the most.
"Today, there are firecrackers outside. It's so lively!" Tian Tian said with her head raised.
"Chu Chu, did you buy the firecrackers?" Stone looked up and asked expectantly.
When the children put down the fireworks, Lin Chu took out a few small boxes and gave each of the children a box. It was wrapped in thin white paper and was about the size of a small steamed bun. When it was thrown on the ground, it would make a "pa" sound. It was safe enough for the children to play by themselves, and it could also let the children have a taste of firecrackers.
"Go play in the yard, but don't stay too long. It's cold outside." Lin Chu said.
The children happily took the firecrackers and went out. After a while, the sound of "pa" came into the house.
The old dean had already put out the nuts and all kinds of fruit candies and chocolates for the New Year. He chatted with Lin Chu while making dumplings at the dining table.
Lin Chu mentioned that he planned to go with Yan Beicheng to the old house to meet the two elders of the Yan family on the second day of the New Year.
"Beicheng's child is good. From Beicheng, I can see that his character and education are all good. His grandparents must be very good people," the old dean said.
