Chapter 35: Chinese New Year's Eve and Spring Festival

Whether it was the year 2019 when he fell in love with Shen Yuan for the first time or the year 2019 when he traveled back and passed again, Zhou Minggao failed to cross the year and the Spring Festival with Shen Yuanyuan. Because of his previous regrets, and because he saw Shen Yuan's Spring Festival alone in his dream, he decided to stay in Province A to spend a year with her. After telling his parents that he would return to Province J later this winter vacation, he stayed in school.

A University, which has entered the winter vacation, is very deserted, and even the cafeteria is not open. Zhou Minggao had to eat out every day, but later felt that it was too wasteful, so he changed to relying on instant noodles in the bedroom. It sounds a little pitiful, but in order to be able to welcome 2017 with Shen Yuanyuan, he thinks it's nothing.

Chinese New Year's Eve.

The Spring Festival Gala began to play on the TV, and Shen was hunched on the sofa, not in the mood. The half plate of dumplings on the coffee table was already cold, and she pulled out a piece of paper from the paper drawer and blew her nose.

Just two days ago, Shen Yifeng's condition suddenly deteriorated a little and he was admitted to the hospital. But in the past few days, Shen Yuan has been catching a cold, afraid of infecting her father with very low immunity, and she can't stay in the hospital, so she has to be taken care of by her aunt, and she is alone at home as a "left-behind child".

It's nothing to celebrate the New Year alone. Listening to the voice of the sketch actor, Shen Yuan thought. Mainly worried about my father's body, and I can't take care of it by the side.

When is it bad to catch a cold......

She threw the paper in the trash.

Alas, at this time.

My aunt sent a message telling her that her father was doing well and telling her not to worry too much and take care of herself. Shen Yuan replied, "I will, aunt rest assured." Then I clicked on the circle of friends and swiped it. After all, it was Chinese New Year's Eve, and the content posted by everyone was nothing more than summarizing the old year and looking forward to the new year, and she felt a little bored after brushing it for a while. Swiping down again, she saw He Youxin posting a group photo of many people, and she casually glanced over and saw that there were many boys and girls. Feeling unhappy, she hurriedly brushed it over, but after a while she silently brushed it back.

Click on the image to enlarge the photo. Shen Yuanyuan recognized the people in the photo one by oneβ€”most of them were in the same class as He Youxin before the liberal arts and sciences major. Among them, there was a girl surnamed Li, she couldn't remember what it was called, but she vaguely remembered rumors that she confessed to He Youxin when she first entered high school.

How did they suddenly get together for New Year's Eve?

Swiping your phone doesn't achieve the purpose of relaxation, but adds something unpleasant. Shen Yuanyuan called Xiao Ranran a video and chatted for a while, and after hanging up the video, she turned off the TV and planned to go to bed early. Before she could get to the bedroom, her mobile phone rang - it was a WeChat call, Zhou Minggao called.

Somewhat confused, she pressed answer.

"Hello?"

"Happy Chinese New Year's Eve." There seemed to be a rumor on Zhou Minggao's side, as if he was outside.

"You too, Happy Chinese New Year's Eve. Just to say this, you called me, and I didn't have a red envelope for you. ”

Zhou Minggao smiled, "You don't have a red envelope for me, but I have a gift for you." ”

"What?" Shen Yuanyuan only thought that he was talking nonsense casually, so he responded casually.

"Let's go downstairs, let's set off fireworks together."

"Huh?" Shen Yuan was a little confused, "Aren't you a foreigner?" Didn't go home for the New Year? Don't try to fool me. Saying that, she looked downstairs curiously. Her house is a high-rise, and she can't see anything clearly when she looks downstairs in the dark, but Zhou Minggao downstairs has a small fairy stick in his hand, which is particularly conspicuous as the only bit of light in the snow.

"Come down, I see you!" Zhou Minggao shouted so loudly that Shen Yuanyu could hear it without listening to it on the phone. "Hurry-point-shen-curling-curling-"

"Oh, don't shout, don't shout!" Shen Yuan was anxious, "There are quite a few people in this community who know me, and you don't have the face to see people anymore." ”

"Quite an idol baggage?" Although Zhou Minggao said this, he still lowered his voice, "So you can't get down, I've been freezing downstairs for a long time." ”

Shen Yuan quietly looked through the window again, and the villain downstairs who was holding a fairy stick and wearing a black down jacket was indeed so cold that he stomped his feet. She couldn't help but laugh. "Okay, then I'll make it difficult, but it may take me a long time to change my clothes." teased Zhou Minggao like this, but her action of changing clothes after hanging up the phone was still very neat. Because she was already a person with a cold, she wrapped herself like a zongzi, and when she went out, she took an extra scarf of her own, intending to give it to Zhou Minggao, who was shivering.

After seeing Zhou Minggao downstairs, Shen Yuanyuan asked him why he didn't go home for the New Year.

He said, "I didn't buy a ticket, and it will take two days to return." ”

It's a lie, but this lie is not very fake, Shen Yuan believed it, and suddenly felt a sense of sympathy. "Aren't you going to have to live alone lately?"

"yes."

"Wow, I've finally found someone worse than me."

"Why, you're pretty happy?"

Shen Yuan smiled and said "no, no" again and again, but he was very naughty to tell Zhou Minggao a ghost story about the dormitory. Zhou Minggao was naturally not afraid of this, but he still pretended to be afraid and cooperated with her and asked her to stop talking.

The temperature was very low, and Shen Yuan, who was already catching a cold, set off fireworks for a while and sneezed. Zhou Minggao persuaded her to go back quickly, and she immediately turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey, why are you like this?"

Shen Yuanxuan stood still. "What's wrong with me?"

"Say go, you're really leaving, I've been cold for a long time to come to you, and you don't invite me to your house for a cup of tea and petting a cat or something?"

"You're going to my house? It's not good. Shen Yuanyuan thought for a while, "But it's okay to have a cup of tea, let's go to the store to drink it." ”

"It's all Chinese New Year's Eve, how can there be a store open......" said this, but Zhou Minggao still obediently followed behind Shen Yuan.

Most of the shops were indeed closed, but there was still a cake shop open, and Shen Yuanyuan and Zhou Minggao went in to buy two cups of hot milk tea, and then sat in the store to drink it. In order to find some topic, Zhou Minggao asked knowingly, "Why can you still run out of the festival?" ”

"Wasn't that shouted out by you?"

"Your family didn't ask you either?"

"I didn't ask, I'm a rebellious girl, can't I?"

She didn't answer well, and Zhou Minggao wasn't angry, just smiled.

After drinking the milk tea, it was not early. Zhou Minggao sent Shen Xuan home, and on the way, fireworks burst into the sky in the distance. Shen Yuanxuan stopped and looked at the spot, and Zhou Minggao was also standing beside her. She watched the fireworks while he was watching her.

Zhou Minggao asked Shen Yuanyuan, "It's a new year, do you have any wishes?" ”

What she thought to her heart was that she hoped that her father would get better. "Yes, but I'm afraid that it won't work." After saying that, she asked rhetorically, "What about you?" ”

"I have only one wish." He turned his head to look at her, "I'm also afraid that it won't work if I say it, so I won't say it." ”

After returning home, Shen Yuan washed and lay down. I kept swiping my phone until midnight, and I didn't receive He Youxin's "Happy Chinese New Year's Eve." On the contrary, Zhou Minggao's news was sent one by one. She felt a little headache, so she told Zhou Minggao that she was going to sleep, and then put on headphones and quietly listened to songs while swiping her mobile phone.

- Lying to him to sleep is not because he hates it, but because he still feels tired even though he has done nothing, he just wants to be quiet by himself.

gradually became a little sleepy, Shen Yuanxuan put down his mobile phone and prepared to sleep, but the message prompt sounded at this time. She rubbed her eyes, picked up her phone again, and saw that it was Wei Yi's message. Wei still sent her a screenshot, which was taken from Li Qingyi's circle of friends. She sent a photo with He Youxin, with the words: I'm very happy to welcome the new year with you.

Shen Yuanyuan didn't feel sad and angry, but was thinking about it out of place-it turned out that her name was Li Qingyi, and she felt better than she remembered.

Wei still said again, "Lingering, the latest news, they are not together!" He Youxin commented on her with a question mark below, it's so embarrassing, ahhh ”

Shen Yuan thought about this scene for a while, twitched the corners of his mouth, and replied, "It's a little embarrassing......"

"How are you and He Youxin doing? Did he tell you Happy Holidays? ”

"Nope." Shen replied, "He and I haven't spoken recently. ”

"What about Zhou Minggao?"

"Why did you get involved with him......" Shen Yuan thought about it, as if she and Zhou Minggao had indeed had a lot of recent intersections. But it's not enough for them to be friends, so there's nothing else to talk about. So she returned to Wei, "Don't gossip about me, happy Chinese New Year's Eve, good night and good night." ”

Wei still replied, "Change the topic, it seems that there is a situation." ”

She pretended not to see it and didn't come back.

I slept fairly soundly this night, and Shen Yuanxuan woke up early the next day. After sending New Year's greetings to her aunt and father, she hesitated and sent a happy new year to her mother. Mom actually sent her a red envelope, she said, "Thank you, Mom, no need." "Didn't pick it up.

When the curtains were opened, the window was particularly dazzling, and it was white. Shen Yuanyu knew that it was probably snowing last night. She felt that her cold was much better, thinking that she would be able to go to the hospital to take care of her father in two days, she was in a much better mood, and went to cook some porridge for herself and had a simple breakfast with small pickles. After eating, she did a math problem for a while, and forgot the formula when she did a function problem, she took out her mobile phone and planned to check it, but saw the message sent by Zhou Minggao five minutes ago.

He said, "Happy Chinese New Year, go downstairs quickly." ”

"Why are you here again...... I'm working on a problem. ”

"Then I'll go, wait until you're done with the questions, go downstairs and take a look yourself."

"See what?"

Zhou Minggao didn't go back again. Knowing that he was deliberately making her curious, Shen Yuanyuan still fell into the trap, and after finishing the question, he changed his clothes and went downstairs. As soon as she stepped out of the hallway, she saw a stupid snowman facing her. She smiled, got closer, and saw a small card stuck on the snowman that read, "Happy New Year, may all your wishes come true." In the lower right corner is his signature, "Zhou Minggao".

Shen Yuanyuan has always been dissatisfied with her school-like and well-behaved font, and her favorite is Zhou Minggao's free and beautiful ligature. So, by the devil, she put this little card in her pocket.
