Chapter 54: (Reluctance)

Lin Chengxuan picked up the wine glass and couldn't help but joke: "Come on, come on, I won't refuse to come!"

The amused crowd burst into laughter, and they raised their glasses to replace the object of the toast with Lin Chengxuan, as he wished, until he resigned again and again, after the meal, it was almost evening, and the faint dusk shone into the door of the hotel lobby.

Everyone drank some wine, but Zhang Yanran didn't drink, but she couldn't drive, Yan Yiling arranged for the driver to send her back together: "Are you happy today?"

"Happy. Zhang Yanran leaned on Yan Yiling's chest and said sweetly, and Chen Shishi was directing how to put that huge painting in the back of the truck.

Chen Shishi was satisfied with the results of his command, so that there would be no problem of loss: "Okay, you can send Xiao Ran back!"

"What about you?" Zhang Yanran asked straight, seeing that she didn't seem to have any intention of staying at her house for one night, so where could she go?

Chen Shishi pointed to the place where Lin Chengxuan was standing: "I still have to go home, you can rest assured, Senior Lin arranged for someone to send me back." ”

"Then when you get home, just call or send a text message to keep you safe, you know?" Zhang Yanran reluctantly held her hand, this separation is about to start school goodbye.

Chen Shishi glanced at Yan Yiling and smiled: "Your lover is there, don't be so sensual, okay?" I'll leave first, and I'll send you a message when I arrive." ”

Zhang Yanran watched Lin Chengxuan and Chen Shishi wave goodbye to them, and raised a happy smile: "Let's go too!"

Yan Yiling took her hand and walked to her car, opened the door for her and sat in the back row, and then got into the car and sat next to each other, cherishing every moment together.

"I'm not ready to meet your parents, so I won't go in, and the master will send the painting in according to your request in a while, will you blame me?" This time it was directly delivered to Zhang Yanran's door, Yan Yiling held Zhang Yanran's hand tightly and said.

Zhang Yanran hurriedly shook her head and said: "How come, it's not time to meet now! The person who should be thanked the most today is you, thank you for giving me such an unforgettable birthday, thank you." ”

"Fool, get out of the car!" Yan Yiling said rubbing her short hair, for fear that she would be reluctant to follow her home if she walked slowly.

After Zhang Yanran nodded and got out of the car, she waved her hand at the window and said, "Goodbye!"

Yan Yiling's car turned around and left first, the master of the truck was still standing at the door waiting for her arrangement, and the employer gave several times the price, so she must be patient and serve in place: "Miss Zhang, where do you put this?"

"Wait a minute, I'll open the door, can you help me move to the second floor?" Zhang Yanran said politely, but I don't know if I can go up to the second floor like such a large painting.

The master looked at the shape of the house and proposed, "We have tools here, and if you can trust us, we can lift them up to the second floor from this side, so that we can ensure that we don't bump into them." ”

"Okay, then let's do it!" Zhang Yanran looked at the side he was pointing to was indeed wide enough to hang up, so this painting was placed in her study?

Zhang Yanran opened the gate and watched the three masters unload the painting and move it into the garden: "You must pay attention to safety!"

"Miss, what's wrong?" Aunt Li noticed that there was movement at the door, and hurriedly came out to find out, but saw the workers tying ropes to the second floor.

In a short period of time, Zhang Yanran had already thought of countermeasures, and said happily to Aunt Li: "This is my gift, by the way, what about my parents?"

"Madame was preparing dinner in the kitchen, Sir was drinking tea in the living room, and I was getting ready to go back. Aunt Li stood aside and replied that they didn't live together.

Zhang Yanran nodded and said, "Then you go back first!"

Aunt Li changed her apron and packed up her things and walked to the annex building, the family was very kind, gave her plenty of private space, specially arranged a very large room for her, did not look down on her at all, every year today will give them a rest, according to the usual in the room to read, or paint, spend it peacefully! Because it is Zhang Yanran's birthday. This year is very different, and it is the first time in more than ten years that I have seen Zhang Yanran so happy.

"Daddy, Daddy, you come out quickly. Zhang Yanran couldn't wait to share this joy and shouted loudly.

Hearing her high-pitched shout, Zhang Runhui took off his glasses, walked out of the door and said with a smile: "What is so happy?"

"You see, this is an adult gift from the art students of the same department, and I have never received the blessings of so many people..."Zhang Yanran pointed to the painting that the master was hanging up, chattering excitedly.

Under the command of Zhang Runhui, the painting was successfully put into Zhang Yanran's bedroom, and after sending the master away, Zhang Yanran said mysteriously: "Tonight, let's take it out again and take a look, okay." ”

"Okay, okay, you two father and daughter hurry up and take a shower, you're sweating profusely, you yourself can bear it, I can't stand it!" Yang Qingqin quipped.

When she was busy in the kitchen, the happy laughter of the two fathers and daughters outside came in, and she couldn't help but feel happy, and she was even more curious about what was happy.

Zhang Yanran and Zhang Runhui looked at each other and smiled, hugged Yang Qingqin and rubbed against her: "Mom, see if you still dislike us, haha!"

"Wife, my daughter is on her birthday today, I must cooperate!" Zhang Runhui surrounded Yang Qingqin to prevent her from escaping, and said with a smile on his face.

After Yang Qingqin was besieged, she couldn't break through the encirclement of the two fathers and daughters, and complained: "It's okay if your daughter wants to make trouble, how old are you, and you still accompany her to make trouble!"

"Haha, I'm still young this year, right? Zhang Runhui hugged the two mothers and daughters and didn't let go, hugging them was like hugging the whole world, it was rare to have a reunion today, and he also wanted to accompany them to make trouble.

Zhang Yanran was hugged by Zhang Runhui and couldn't breathe, and quipped: "Dad, you hug me so tightly, I can't breathe, you have bad intentions!"

"Why am I so ill-intentioned?" Zhang Runhui asked suspiciously, but his hand unconsciously loosened a little, for fear that his hand strength would not be well controlled.

Zhang Yanran suddenly complained to Yang Qingqin: "Mom, look, Dad is holding him so tightly now, he is about to lack oxygen, he obviously wants to make us dizzy, and when my brother comes back, I can't stand steadily." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, the two of you smell so much sweat, hurry up and take a bath, do you hear it!" Mu Yan is about to come back, these two are still messing around, Yang Qingqin ordered.

"Yes!" Zhang Yanran and Zhang Runhui stood up straight and saluted and said loudly, Zhang Yanran was wondering if Mu Yan had grown taller this year, and whether he was doing well?

Yang Qingqin, who went downstairs, looked up and feigned anger and said, "The size is not the same!

After Zhang Runhui smiled heartily and went back to the room to take a bath, Zhang Yanran stared at the photo, when will the official reunion be? I believe that although my parents don't say it, they are actually looking forward to it and miss it very much, I heard that they have to do it for some reasons, but it is also Mu Yan's choice.

When night fell, everything was ready, Mu Yan was alone every time he appeared, entering from a different entrance, except for not going through the main gate, and the time was uncertain, but he would arrive before twelve o'clock every year.

"It's almost twelve o'clock, are you hungry?" Yang Qingqin knew that he would wait for Mu Yan to eat, and he would make something for everyone to pad his stomach, so as not to be hungry.

Zhang Yanran looked at the clock and was about to go at twelve o'clock, usually he appeared before twelve o'clock, and asked dejectedly: "Mom, I'm not hungry, why hasn't my brother come back yet! ”

"Then Mom and Dad will give it to you first, Mu Yan will come in a while, and then again, okay?" Zhang Runhui comforted, although Mu Yan and Zhang Yanran had met for a short time, Zhang Yanran liked to stick to Mu Yan very much.

Zhang Yanran was lying on the sofa sullenly, and she could only see her once a year: "I don't want to, I have to wait for my brother, if he doesn't come back, I won't be able to?"

In fact, they are not worried, it is not easy for him to come back once without hiding from the Mu family, after all, they owe Mu Yan, since Mu Yan trained independently, he told Zhang Yanran that he would not miss her birthday every year.

The clock in the living room "tick, tick, tick," rings, time passes minute by minute, pointing to 23:59, Zhang Yanran looks at the clock closely, she looks forward to the return of her relatives like a child, does not ask for gifts, as long as people, is there any danger? Do you want to call Ouyang Qing to see the situation, but Ouyang Qing sent a text message today to bless and everything is as usual?

"Xiao Ran. Mu Yan's voice appeared in their cochlea, interrupting Zhang Yanran's thoughts.

Before seeing him, he heard his voice first, Zhang Yanran quickly got up from the sofa and looked for Mu Yan everywhere, where was there still a little bit of sullenness? Zhang Runhui and Yang Qingqin were also relieved at this moment, but they didn't expect to really arrive before twelve o'clock, it was really hard for Mu Yan.

"Brother, where are you, come out quickly!" Zhang Yanran looked down the stairs and whispered, her parents had warned her to be careful in everything, otherwise she would kill Mu Yan.

Mu Yan came in on the second floor, dressed in a black tracksuit and walked downstairs slowly, and couldn't help laughing: "If I don't come, you can't do it?" Time will still go, you are still 18 years old. ”

"Brother, you've been late for a long time this year, I've only seen you once a year, and you're still teasing me, I can't live this day. Zhang Yanran looked at the tall young man in front of her and said, it turned out that Mu Yan came when she said that.

"Okay, take it, happy birthday, why don't you grow taller?" Mu Yan took out a gift box and gave it to her, looking at Zhang Yanran, who was standing on his chest, measured his height with his hand, and said jokingly with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'll still grow taller, okay?" Zhang Yanran couldn't wait to open the gift in front of him, inside was a very delicate white diamond bracelet, happily put on the slender wrist, and admired it carefully.

Mu Yan looked at Zhang Runhui behind Zhang Yanran and nodded slightly: "Uncle, have you eaten?"

Hearing Zhang Runhui's biological son call him uncle, it was inevitable that he was a little sad, but he was always very grateful, after all, his son didn't blame him, and he was willing to take the risk of coming back, which was enough, and said with a hearty smile: "Your aunt cooked a lot of meals that you two love to eat today, let's all go over!"
