763 -322: Going Home for the New Year!_2
At the age of 25, why can Jiang Xinyi find a tall and handsome “puppy”, and yet I’m stuck with a fat bloke beside me at night?
Lv Hui couldn’t accept it, and just at this moment, Li Qiang suddenly sent her a message.
“Baby, what are you busy with?
(gritting teeth)”
Seeing the message from Li Qiang, Lv Hui felt somewhat consoled, thinking to herself, well, at least I also have a “little wolf dog”.
Honestly, when Lv Hui first started her online romance with Li Qiang, she was somewhat worried, thinking what if Liu Shuo finds out about this?
But after giving it some thought, she felt she couldn’t solely blame herself.
If there’s anyone to blame, it’s that Liu Shuo is too crude.
She had tried playing Werewolf games with Liu Shuo, but he totally wasn’t cut out for these types of games, he was single-minded and started cursing at others over nothing.
Several times, Liu Shuo would call Lv Hui his baby one moment, and the next he’d be spraying insults with someone else, truly embarrassing her.
Later on, Lv Hui thought to herself, after all, her relationship with Li Qiang was just an online romance; as long as they didn’t meet in person, it was okay.
Physically, she remained loyal to Liu Shuo.
Besides, look at Zhou Yuwen; he’s always flirting around with various women.
Why can he do that, and I can’t?
What I’m doing is actually pretty innocent!
With this comforting thought, Lv Hui felt much better.
Knowing that Li Qiang and Zhou Yuwen were classmates, and having some gossip she couldn’t wait to share, Lv Hui thought about it and simply started to chat with Li Qiang.
“I’m jogging.”
Lv Hui, who had just finished being intimate with Liu Shuo, had put on a camisole; thin beads of sweat were still visible on her neck, making it appear somewhat like she had just finished running.
Lv Hui understood men too well.
Though she was not particularly beautiful, she could find a good angle for the camera, do some simple whitening edits.
A true internet goddess.
No sooner had the picture been sent over than Li Qiang immediately responded with a drooling emoji.
He even asked Lv Hui to raise the camera higher and take another photo.
Lv Hui rolled her eyes several times at Li Qiang and then said, “Hey, I remember you mentioned that you are roommates with Zhou Yuwen, right?”
“Yeah, right, baby, what’s up?”
“Did you know your counselor’s ex-girlfriend works in Zhou Yuwen’s company…”
Unable to suppress her gossip, Lv Hui eventually spilled the beans about Jiang Xinyi chasing after Zhou Yuwen to Li Qiang, whose reaction was even more shocked than hers.
“Yu Teacher’s girlfriend is chasing after Old Zhou!”
“Isn’t that super shocking?”
“This is fucking shocking!
Damn!”
Seeing Li Qiang’s reply, Lv Hui snorted with laughter, thinking that this was indeed more emotionally fulfilling than anything Liu Shuo offered.
Although the news of Jiang Xinyi chasing Zhou Yuwen had already spread around the company, it was currently the end of the semester, and with only two days left, even if it did make a dent it wouldn’t be massive.
After arranging the winter holiday work schedule for four thousand people, Zhou Yuwen had Lu Lin stay to help Jiang Xinyi with her work.
Jiang Xinyi’s home was in Jinling, and with Liu Jing—a truly formidable figure—also there, overseeing the work for four thousand people shouldn’t present any problems; Lu Lin was only staying in Jinling to handle any emergencies that might arise.
Of course, Zhou Yuwen had also said that if Lu Lin wanted to go home, she was totally free to do so.
But Lu Lin didn’t want to go home.
Apart from her, Lv Hui was also staying.
Zhou Yuwen hadn’t originally planned to keep Lv Hui, but seeing that Lu Lin stayed behind for double pay, she took the initiative to request overtime work.
Zhou Yuwen also curiously asked her if she didn’t need to go home to be with her family?
Lv Hui looked away, stumbling over her words a bit, “When can’t I see my family?
Work is more important.”
Zhou Yuwen couldn’t help but laugh at her response.
After all, during the Spring Festival, Zhou Yuwen wasn’t about to play favorites; he told Lv Hui that as long as she stayed, she should work hard, and he would give Liu Shuo a big red envelope next year.
On hearing this, Lv Hui immediately laughed and said: “Boss, if you really want to give a red envelope, why not give it directly to me!”
Zhou Yuwen nodded: “That’s true!”
After finishing all arrangements in Jinling, before I knew it, the 25th had arrived, and there were only four days left until the New Year.
Zhou Yuwen’s mom had basically been calling him every day recently, inquiring persistently about when exactly Zhou Yuwen would be returning home.
Zhou Yuwen kept saying he would be home soon but hadn’t provided any updates.
Finally, today he said he would probably arrive home by 2 o’clock in the afternoon.
His mom was satisfied and said it was just in time to catch the dinner party in the evening.
“What?
There’s a dinner party tonight?” Zhou Yuwen couldn’t help laughing and crying, saying honestly that he really hated these kinds of family gatherings in his past life.
The reason for his late return was precisely because it seemed like every holiday he had to endure endless meals at home.
“What are you saying?
Logically, this meal should have been eaten long ago, but we’ve been waiting for you and it was delayed till today!” His mother’s tone carried a hint of unreasonableness.
Zhou Yuwen said, alright alright, as long as you’re happy.
“What do you mean ‘I’m happy’?” On the phone, his mother’s voice sounded displeased.
Zhou Yuwen said: “I mean, I’m happy too!”
By the time they hung up, the car had already gotten on the expressway.
There were four people sitting in the car.
Liu Shuo was driving, and Zhou Yuwen was in the passenger seat.
Behind them sat Li Shiqi and Su Qing.
However, speaking of which, it seemed Zhou Yuwen’s family appeared to be the most normal among the four.
Liu Shuo was a local businessman with money, but had a mistress, and at home, he was neither favored by his uncle nor beloved by his grandmother.
He usually spoke very little with his father over the phone.
Still, during the New Year, he at least made one phone call.
When his father called, Liu Shuo replied, “Mind your own business!”
As for the families of Su Qing and Li Shiqi, it was even harder to describe.
Thus, going home for the New Year, which should have been a joyous occasion, ended up with only Zhou Yuwen actually calling his family.
Su Qing didn’t think too much of it since she considered herself ‘married off’; for her, going home meant going back to Zhou Yuwen’s house.
While Zhou Yuwen was on the phone just now, she was all ears and listening in.
Right after Zhou Yuwen hung up, Su Qing leaned towards the front seat, asking, “Zhou Yuwen, is your mom dragging you to another family dinner with relatives?”
“Whose mom?
Are you just randomly calling someone your mom?” Zhou Yuwen retorted.
Even without Zhou Yuwen saying, Liu Shuo and Li Shiqi were momentarily stunned.
Su Qing blushed and said, “Ah, it just slipped out!”
Zhou Yuwen said, “Little Su, we’ve only dated; you’re acting as if we’re already married.”
Su Qing cast a flirtatious glance at Zhou Yuwen, playfully saying, “In my dreams, we are already married.”
“Cut it out!”
Zhou Yuwen and Su Qing bantered a bit, and Liu Shuo also laughed along, saying, “Bro, seriously, you’ve kept it very secretive.
If it weren’t for sister-in-law spilling the beans, I wouldn’t have known you had a high school romance.
Right, class president, you had no clue either.”
The ‘class president’ Liu Shuo mentioned was Li Shiqi, who was their class president in high school.
Li Shiqi felt a bit awkward when Liu Shuo asked her and said, “I-I didn’t know, I was focused on studying in high school.”
“Oh, that makes sense!”
All four having attended the same high school meant that there were no barriers in their conversations, and they all knew about the major events that had occurred.
Moreover, Liu Shuo greeted everyone as sister-in-law, which made Su Qing have a good impression of him.
She even mentioned recalling him from their high school days.
“I heard about you from our classmates before,” Su Qing said with a smile.
“Oh?
Sister-in-law has heard about me?” Liu Shuo happily perked up on hearing this.
Su Qing nodded, asking if Liu Shuo was that guy who, in his sophomore year, climbed the wall to go to the internet café, but ended up hooking and tearing his pants, exposing his red underwear?
Su Qing’s mention had Zhou Yuwen and Li Shiqi bursting into laughter, as this was indeed a memorable incident involving Liu Shuo.
Liu Shuo couldn’t help but be embarrassed, saying, “No, sister-in-law, you could remember something good about me too!”
Su Qing covered her mouth and laughed, saying, “But other than that, I really don’t remember much else!”
Honestly speaking, Su Qing’s impression of Liu Shuo was really superficial.
In her past life, when she was dating Zhou Yuwen, she didn’t even remember someone like Liu Shuo being around Zhou Yuwen.
It was only later, when Su Qing suspected Zhou Yuwen might be a reincarnated person and started asking around their high school classmates, that she finally found out about it.
