Chapter 184: Visitors For New Year’s Eve
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
If it was someone else, his position would be incredibly firm.
Jiang Xun gulped.
This man was good-looking. His eyes were slightly raised, and his lazy gaze was even more seductive. He was amazing.
Jiang Xun turned his head away and didn’t dare to look anymore. He was afraid that if he continued to look, she would be able to push Mufeng down and not let him walk out of the room.
Jiang Xun cleared his throat and got up to open the door.
!!Mufeng followed closely behind her.
When she opened the door and came out, Jixuan was squatting outside to check if the wine he brought was broken.
Luckily, the bottles were strong and none of them were broken.
When he heard the sound, Jixuan turned around and saw Jiang Xun and Mufeng walking out. He stood up.
The redness on Jiang Xun’s face had almost subsided. However, she was still a little embarra.s.sed to look at Jixuan directly. She asked with a fleeting gaze, “Why are you here at this time?”
Shouldn’t he be having New Year’s Eve dinner at the Jiang residence?
“I changed it to lunch this year. I thought that you would be alone, so I came over to celebrate the new year with you.” Jixuan rolled his eyes at the sky. “I didn’t expect brother-in-law to be here too. Hehehe…”
In the end, it was a mistake.
Mufeng’s gaze was full of admiration. Jixuan, this child, was quite perceptive.
Everyone knew that he had always called him brother-in-law.
When Jiang Xun’s gaze landed on the four boxes of wine on the ground, Jixuan explained, “It’s the New Year. I can’t come empty-handed. I bought a box of red wine, a box of fruit wine, a box of rice wine, and a box of fruit juice.”
When Jixuan came in from outside, the cold air that hung on his body had not dissipated even now.
The winter in the capital was cold. At night, it was especially bone-chilling. Jiang Xun’s heart softened. “Since you’re already here, Let’s celebrate the new year here. It’ll be more lively with more people.”
She thought that the first time she celebrated the new year in two lifetimes would be by herself.
She didn’t expect that Mufeng and Jixuan would be here, and two more people would celebrate the new year with her.
Jiang Xun’s heart was warmed by this unexpected surprise.
“Okay!” Jixuan’s face lit up. He quickly went into the living room and took off his coat before putting it on the back of the sofa. He went to unpack the wine and fruit juice that he had brought. “What are we drinking tonight? It’s the new year, so we should be happy. Why don’t we open a bottle of red wine?”
“Sure.” Jiang Xun had never drunk wine before.
There were no conditions in the apocalypse.
She had come here and only cared about stuffing her stomach full every day. She had not even bothered to taste the wine.
Jiang Xun realized that there were too many good things in this world for her to taste and try.
Jixuan simply moved all the wine and drinks into the kitchen and opened a bottle of red wine.
Jiang Xun went to get a gla.s.s. “We don’t have any red wine gla.s.ses at home, so we’ll make do with an ordinary gla.s.s.”
“Okay, I’ll buy all kinds of wine gla.s.ses for you later.” Jixuan looked reluctant. “This is still good wine. It’s a pity that we aren’t using a red wine gla.s.s to drink it. Using an ordinary gla.s.s, the temperature of holding the gla.s.s will also affect the taste of the red wine.”
“Do you have a bigger water storage cup? Pour the red wine in first to wake it up, it will be delicious,” Jixuan added.
He didn’t expect Jiang Xun to have a wine decanter, so he didn’t mention it.
Jiang Xun narrowed her eyes. “I don’t have one. Would a soup bowl do?”
Mufeng pinched the corner of his eyes and smiled. “I have everything over there. Wait a moment, I’ll bring them over.”
Jixuan wanted to say how long it would take for Mufeng to go home to get wine gla.s.ses?
He might as well go out and buy a new one.
Before he could say anything, Mufeng had already left the house.
“How long will it take for him to go back and get the gla.s.ses? Will he be able to make it in time?” Jixuan asked. “Even if it’s the new year now, most of the people are going back to their hometown to celebrate. There aren’t many people in the capital, so there’s no need to get stuck in traffic. But it’ll take at least an hour to go back and forth, right?”
As soon as Jixuan finished speaking, Mufeng opened the door and came back.
He was holding three red wine gla.s.ses and a wine decanter.
Jixuan: “…”
“He lives across the street,” Jiang Xun explained with a straight face.
Jixuan: “???”
When did this happen?
It was already too much to be living so close together!
Jixuan poured red wine into the wine decanter, and he said to Jiang Xun hesitantly, “Actually… in the past, we usually have New Year’s Eve dinner at home, but this year, it’s changed to noon. In the afternoon, it was dad who secretly told me to come over to your place at night to accompany you. He didn’t want you to be alone.”
“Of course, even if dad didn’t say it, I planned to come over,” Jixuan quickly explained.
He absolutely couldn’t let Jiang Xun misunderstand that he treated her worse than Chengye did.
“Heh,” Jiang Xun sneered, “Now you suddenly want to make up for it? Like that’s believable.”
“But at least he wants to make amends, doesn’t he?” Jixuan spoke up for Chengye.
“What about the dead?” Jiang Xun said with a cold face. “How will he make amends for the dead? Will he pay with his life?”
“Pah pah pah!” Mufeng pulled Jiang Xun and urged her to “Pah pah pah” with him. “It’s the New Year. Don’t say that word.”
Mufeng insisted until Jiang Xun also said “Pah” three times.
Jixuan stopped talking.
He finally knew that Jiang Xun’s heart knot was never something that formed because Chengye had thrown her into the countryside for 11 years.
It was Chengye’s betrayal that caused her mother’s death.
The atmosphere suddenly became cold, but the doorbell rang again.
Jiang Xun let out a sigh of relief and went to the door to open it. She saw the school bully trio and Yu Bingbing standing at the door with their mouths wide open. “Boss, Happy New Year!”
This time, Jiang Xun was really shocked. “You guys… come in quickly!”
Jiang Xun made way for them to come in and asked in surprise, “You guys aren’t at home for the New Year. Why are you here?”
“We are used to having lunch at home and eat until the evening. While the elders are still drinking, we would have already left the table,” Bingbing explained with a smile. “Since we have nothing to do, we thought that we might as well spend the new year with you.”
