Green Tea is So Annoying - Chapter 69
Dong Yin returned to the upstairs room and started to pack her things. She only wore one set of clothes when she came, and all she brought were gifts. It cost her 13,000 yuan, her monthly salary.
She put it in a bag, the door opened and she glanced at Mr. Xie, as if to bow, but she stood up straight.
The mist in her eyes turned into tears. She held back the tears and let them store in her eyes. She carried her things and walked outside.
The biting cold wind was blowing on her face, her nose was about to freeze, Dong Yin kept walking, the last time she came by Xie Mingjun’s car, she actually didn’t know where to go, her leather boots were stepping on the fluffy road.
Although so many people came to the Xie family today, there were not many footprints on the snow.
In the luxurious villa, the well-dressed and elegant person was still blowing the heater. After listening to her words, she was particularly shocked, and her face was still very calm.
“Nonsense! She’s talking nonsense, how could she be born by me, and Yuxi’s father and I are the first marriage! He knows what kind of person I am, she just opens her mouth and speaks nonsense.” , I cried miserably. Compared with the fake cry just now, I cried more sincerely this time.
After all, she was still afraid in her heart. Dong Yin cried so truthfully, and told a lie so **** carefully. Now, she might not be able to explain the matter just by crying.
Dad Zou was also at a loss. To be honest, seeing Dong Yin crying so real, he wondered for a moment if his wife had cheated. In his early years, he was an insurance seller, and Mama Zou didn’t like him anywhere.
They also know the affairs of the husband and wife, but they will definitely not say it now, and they still have to pretend to be in front of people.
Zou’s father was very protective of Zou’s mother and said: “Old Xie, what’s the matter with your child? I have a serious free love with Yuxi’s mother. I know best what Yuxi’s mother is like. How could Dong Yin be her child? Brother and sister, isn’t this nonsense! It’s unheard of! I know this kid is your guest, so am I not your brother and friend? You’re hitting my face with the sole of your shoe!”
With her husband in charge, Mama Zou stopped sobbing and spoke with a few degrees of arrogance, “We are here for the New Year’s Eve dinner, not here to suffer, this is too insulting! That girl is too vicious, At first glance, it’s not a good thing. What are the little girls doing now, talking nonsense in order to enter the rich man’s house? The character is too low, if it is not for the good relationship between my husband and wife, the family will be scattered. “
When you don’t know the real facts, whoever speaks loudly and who is right will follow everyone’s thoughts.
“The little girl is indeed a bit powerful now, and my thinking is almost misguided. I think Dong Yin and Yuxi are in the same grade, and they are only a few months apart in age. How could they be brothers and sisters? Isn’t this nonsense? The girl is so vicious!”
“Don’t say that, Yuxi seems to have stayed one grade, just one year older than Dong Yin… No, how does this logic match up again.”
“Don’t say it, I think I just want to enter the wealthy family. I understand these little girls too much. The three views are distorted. I just like money and don’t want anything for money.”
Anyway, as long as Mr. Xie responded, it was confirmed that Dong Yin had a very bad character, she was a money-worshiping woman with a dirty character, then Ma Zou would be fine. Mother Zou took the tissue and cried, “If she insists that I’m her mother, that’s fine, we’ll go through legal proceedings, and we’re not afraid of shadows, if she’s my daughter, I’ll go to jail, if she framed me, I’ll definitely won’t let her go.”
Now that she has become a victim, she has to sell it hard, “Old Xie, you and Yuxi’s father have been friends for so many years, you know who I am.”
The pressure was placed on Mr. Xie’s side. As the master, Mr. Xie was trapped to death by this back and forth situation. He was not a doctor. How could he know whether Dong Yin was the child of the couple.
After getting along for a few days, Dong Yin behaved very well, with a docile temperament and a simple mind. It was also the remarks just now, which made people realize that she was quite articulate.
It’s just that the people in this house…
Just as Mr. Xie was about to speak, the aunt at home ran in from outside.
Aunt Lin said: “Sir, Mingjun is back, and the car has entered the garage.”
Mr. Xie was stunned and turned his head to look over. After that, his emotions became obvious, and his expression became solemn in an instant. He looked at his aunt and said, “I just asked you to find Dongyin, has anyone found it?”
“…Looking for someone?” Auntie was slightly stunned, no one said anything at all. When Dong Yin ran out, she was watching from the side. There were so many people in the room who didn’t see anyone pulling it, and she was too embarrassed to persuade her. Dong Yin’s child ran out for so long, and no one said she was looking for her.
But Mr. Xie’s expression was very bad, with a solemn face, Aunt Lin nodded quickly, “I will look for it again, I will ask Alian and the others to look for it together, sir, don’t worry, she just ran out and should be still in the community. inside.”
Mama Zou’s tears stopped, she wiped the tears on her face, just took the tissue from the next guest, and heard Mr. Xie say, “As for Dong Yin, this child has been here with me for a few days, and her character is still good. He is also well-behaved, and I don’t know what happened to this matter today, and it’s your family’s private matter, so I’m not good at meddling…”
Mr. Xie, who was still neutral just now, actually stood on Dong Yin’s side in an instant, stunned everyone, especially Zou’s mother and Zou’s father, who were immediately stunned.
Dad Zou asked, “What do you mean, Lao Xie, are you standing on Dong Yin’s side? That’s what my husband and wife did wrong?”
At this time, Xie Mingjun walked in from outside, Xu was blowing cold wind outside, and she was wrapped in a chill.
The snow outside was heavy, and Xie Mingjun had a few pieces of ice and snow on his hair. When the warm warmth in the room quickly condensed into water droplets, she took off her furry gloves and said, “I have already brought it to you. Now, get ready for dinner.”
She exhaled and put her palm on her frozen cheek. She rubbed it and looked at Mr. Xie, only to hear Mr. Xie say angrily: “Old Zou, we have been friends for many years, what should I do to you? Clear. You don’t have to care about a child. I don’t know what the specific situation is. The child is fine in my house. He is well-behaved and does not cause trouble. He is shy and does not like to talk much. It’s like that, how can I believe it?”
Papa Zou’s face turned pale, “Thank you, what do you mean? Are you making trouble with me for a child? You…”
“Okay, don’t tell me, no matter what, you don’t care about this matter. Today is my family’s New Year’s Eve dinner, and you make everyone unhappy. Now I just want to get the child back quickly, Don’t talk to me about brotherhood, I’m not a hooligan. Your family of three, all adults, cares about a child, it’s a joke. “
Xie Mingjun stopped and glanced at the people surrounded by her. She walked over with no expression on her face. Soon she bit her lower lip and asked angrily, “Who ran away? Why are you looking for a child? “
She opened her mouth, but no one dared to speak.
After all, Dong Yin is her friend, and everyone on the united front has bullied her friend.
“I asked, who ran away?” Xie Mingjun raised his voice and glanced at her father.
No one answered, and Zou’s mother stopped sobbing.
Zou Yuxi boldly said a word, “I can’t blame Uncle Xie for this, there is a misunderstanding.”
“What was the misunderstanding? I turned around. Your family ran over and chased my people away. You told me what was the misunderstanding? Where was the misunderstanding?” Xie Mingjun exhaled, “Who the **** is this? Home, your family is flamboyant, you are invited to come in because of your face, if you don’t want to stay here, get out of here!”
After some remarks, the Zou family didn’t dare to let go, only Zou Yuxi said dryly: “Uncle has already been found, don’t worry.” He tried to appease Xie Mingjun and please Xie Mingjun.
Xie Mingjun picked up the wine on the table, it was the wine that Mr. Xie and Dad Zou had not finished drinking, she poured it on Zou Yuxi, “Did I give you a face? I didn’t understand enough, didn’t I? “
“Ming Jun…”
“You even called your parents to bully Dong Yin!” The wine bottle she picked up almost fell on Zou Yuxi, but was blocked by Zou’s father.
Dad Zou said immediately, “Mr. Ming, no one here bullies that Dong Yin, she is talking nonsense.”
“Bullshit? You tell me her bullshit?”
Where does Dad Zou have the nerve to say.
Xie Mingjun pointed at the door, “Get out!”
“What did you say?” Dad Zou looked at Xie Mingjun in disbelief. He was Xie Mingjun’s elder, but the benefactor of the Xie family.
“Go away?” Xie Mingjun said, and smashed something on them, the scene was in chaos.
“Old Xie! Is this your family’s attitude?” Zou’s father and Zou’s mother were all angry and looked at Mr. Xie.
“Go away!” Xie Mingjun pointed at his nose, still showing no face.
Mr. Xie didn’t stop him, but said: “It’s true that you have gone too far in this matter of Lao Zou, you go back first, I will talk to Ming Jun first, the Dongyin people haven’t come back yet, I have to find them, I really have no energy. mess with you.”
The Zou family was driven away with disgrace, and they didn’t even explain whether Zou’s mother was Dong Yin’s biological mother. The other guests were at a loss, and they were still at a loss. After Dong Yin said that, things were out of control, and they couldn’t get in.
Thinking now.
Was Dong Yin born to Zou Ma?
Now the dinner table is in a mess, with drinks all over it, and the smell of alcohol is overwhelming.
Mr. Xie arranged for someone to see off the guests, and the housemaid quickly cleaned up the house. Mr. Xie stood at the door for a while, looking at Xie Mingjun, trying to say something to her.
Xie Mingjun was calling Dong Yin, but the phone couldn’t get through. She was reminding her that the user was turned off. She walked back and forth in the living room, turned to see Mr. Xie, and asked, “Where’s the person?”
“Don’t worry, Dong Yin should be nearby. Auntie Lin and the others went to look for them. They will be back soon.” Mr. Xie sighed, ready to say a few words about her attitude today.
But Xie Mingjun didn’t listen, she just said: “As long as you tell her, ‘Xie Mingjun will be back later’, she will not leave. Did you say it? Did you keep it?”
Xie Mingjun knew Dong Yin too well, she would never take the initiative to cause trouble, but if…if someone bullied her and made her sad, she would run very fast.
Mr. Xie was speechless. After waiting for a few seconds, he said, “Dad made a mistake about this. There were many people in the living room at that time, and your Uncle Zou’s tone was aggressive, so I didn’t react for a while…”
“Don’t talk to me about this, I’ll just ask you a question, did you pay for it on purpose?”
Mr. Xie looked into Xie Mingjun’s eyes with hatred in those eyes, as long as he answered yes, this would be the end of Xie Mingjun’s father-daughter relationship, he said with a solemn face, “Mr. Ming, you are Thinking of Dad so much? I’m so stupid, I’ll take you away and target Dong Yin? No matter how stupid I am, I won’t be so stupid!”
“Yes, I was wrong at the time. I thought Dong Yin was going out for two laps. When you come back, she will come back with her.”
He really didn’t lie about this, so he wouldn’t say that he would let Xie Mingjun go and deal with Dong Yin when Xie Mingjun left. This method is too stupid.
Speaking of this, he thought of Zou Yuxi’s family, why are they so stupid today? This approach is not as good as shrew scolding the streets.
But if you think about it, you can’t say they are stupid. If Zou’s mother succeeded in framing Dong Yin at the beginning, he would not stand on Dong Yin’s side. Dong Yin is the target of public criticism, and she will definitely suffer. Dong Yin speaks.
Dong Yin’s retort was really wonderful, and she said all the nonsense in a logical way.
In the past, when Xie Mingjun praised her, Mr. Xie didn’t take it seriously. Now he has to admit that Xueba is a Xueba with great brains.
Mr. Xie came back to his senses and said slowly, “Mr. Ming, I know you are angry, don’t worry, I have already sent someone to look for it…” He exhaled angrily, “It was a good New Year’s Eve dinner by them. It’s been so **** good for them all these years.”
The first time Mr. Xie swears, he looks angry, so he goes out to call the person looking for Dong Yin and asks if Dong Yin has been found.
His tone sounded grumpy.
But people just can’t find it, and have been unable to find it.
Xie Mingjun couldn’t wait, she went out to look for it by herself, she went everywhere that day, went to the school to look for it, the school was gone, the dormitory aunt went home for Chinese New Year, and the door of the dormitory was tightly locked. If they don’t go, there will be no one in their little home.
It was a big city, but Dong Yin ran and hid, but she didn’t have a clue.
I have been looking for the early morning, but I still haven’t seen Dong Yin’s figure. She seems to be integrated into the city and turned into ice and snow. Xie Mingjun feels that there is her everywhere, but every time she goes to look for it, she is nowhere to be seen.
Looking for her, she was distraught.
Everyone is wondering, what about people?
Mr. Xie said to contact a few friends and ask.
Xie Mingjun was sitting on the sofa in despair. She was holding her mobile phone and didn’t know what she was thinking. Suddenly, she looked at Mr. Xie.
Mr. Xie was like a needle in his back, and he didn’t turn around.
Xie Mingjun said coolly: “You didn’t expect her to have self-esteem, right? You thought she didn’t run too far, but you thought she would come back. After all, I’m here, and our family is still rich. How high are you? .”
Xie Mingjun’s speech was ugly, and the room was empty, so she didn’t seem to save face for Mr. Xie.
Mr. Xie became slightly angry and hung up the phone. He maintained the demeanor of a father and said, “Mr. Ming, I will apologize to Dong Yin for this matter, so…”
“Apologize?” Xie Mingjun sneered, “Is it a great thing to apologize? Go and pull the Zou family over, I will slap each of them, and then I will kneel down and apologize to them.”
The water glass in Mr. Xie’s hand fell directly to the ground, “Are you still lawless? So what do you want? I fell out with Uncle Zou about this, and we formed a liang, and I went to find someone, it was me. Did you let her run away? You offended a whole room of guests, have I ever taught you a word?”
Xie Mingjun kicked away the teacup on the ground, “When the Zou family finds fault, you should stop it, and you should tell them that Dong Yin is our guest! Can’t you do this? You can’t do it. What business, aren’t you graceful and courteous? What are you pretending to be!”
Mr. Xie raised his hand, pointed to her face, and clenched his fist again and pressed it on the table. For the first time in many years, the father and daughter had a war.
“Yes, it’s my fault. You talk to me in such a tone. Well, I taught you well. You really don’t take my father seriously at all.”
Xie Mingjun sneered.
“Ming Jun, you can be so arrogant because you know that I love you, and what happened today is something I did wrong, but I’m already making up for it.”
Mr. Xie was very angry and tried his best to maintain his emotions. He exhaled loudly, “Yes, Dad shouldn’t have invited the Zou family over, but Ming-Jun, you knew that I would call them over, and you brought Dong Yin over, it’s not your responsibility. Should you bear it yourself? Have you made all your plans? You should not be a child now, and the choices made by adults, no matter the outcome, must be borne by yourself.”
Xie Mingjun bit his red lips and seemed to be defeated, but he couldn’t say no to him.
She sat back on the sofa, her eyes were red, she looked at Mr. Xie with a hoarse voice, “Yes, I didn’t expect the consequences, because I want you to accept her, because you are my father, if you are not my father, I will take care of you Accept it or not, I care if you like it or not?”
The sound of the two quarreling alarmed the rest of the family. Aunt Lin came up to pull Xie Mingjun, gave Uncle Wu a look, and asked him to persuade Mr. Xie.
Wu Shuxian said: “The most urgent task now is to find Dong Yin. Let’s not think about anything else. Ming-jun, think about where Dong Yin will go. It’s really not safe for her to be a girl outside.”
It was really strange that the guests gathered at home for a while, and in less than half an hour, or even less than twenty minutes, the people of Dongyin disappeared.
Aunt Lin said: “…Actually, I saw that Dong Yin ran out of the hall, holding something while crying and running. The Tibetan Mastiff was startled, fell down, got up and continued to run.”
It must have been distressing to see. At that time, Mr. Xie didn’t speak, and Aunt Lin didn’t dare to go up and pull it. She sighed, “It’s a holiday now, and it’s hard to get a taxi, but really don’t have anything wrong, or call the police and see, Isn’t that the one who can call the police in 24 hours? By the way, does Dong Yin have friends, did you go to live at a friend’s house?”
Xie Mingjun knew in her heart that Dong Yin would definitely not call Chu Ning’an and the others, let alone tell them what happened, but there was nothing she could do.
She thought that Dong Yin would wait for her to come back and complain to her, be a cute little green tea, wait for her to drive the Zou family away, and make the Zou family feel ashamed.
Who knew that Dong Yin would really leave.
On New Year’s Eve, the city has been turned over for another day, and there is still no information.
When the call was connected, Chu Ning’an smiled and said, “What’s the matter, do you want to send red envelopes in advance? Tell my uncle, I want two this year!”
“Have you contacted Dong Yin today?” Xie Mingjun waited for a few seconds before she dared to speak, but she couldn’t say it at all. She ran a few places, her voice was hoarse, and Chu Ning’an didn’t hear it for the first time.
“No, what’s the matter? Isn’t Dong Yin with you?” Chu Ning’an wondered, “What’s wrong? What happened?”
It was difficult for Xie Mingjun to speak, which made her say that she turned around and turned around, and her guests drove Dong Yin away?
In the past, when others bullied Dong Yin, she could be filled with righteous indignation, but now it was her turn, she was simply… ashamed, speechless, resentful…
Chu Ning’an came out and asked softly, “Did you two quarrel? Did Dong Yin run away?”
“no……”
Chu Ningan snorted, it was rare that she was smart for a while, and did not ask further, “Then I know.”
The Chu family was making dumplings, and her grandparents also took them over. The whole family was happy. When Chu Ningan ran out, her parents kept calling her where she was going.
Chu Ning’an said, “I’m going to find Lu Hanqiu. I’ll be back later. You guys will do it first.”
Lu Hanqiu’s house is relatively quiet. Her parents are both teachers. Chu Ning’an stood at the door and shouted, “Lu Hanqiu, Lu Hanqiu, are you busy? Come out for a while, there is something urgent.”
“Han Qiu is talking to her father, wait a moment.” Mother Lu said.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Lu Hanqiu came out. The two changed their clothes and went out to help find someone. Lu Hanqiu borrowed her father’s car and got stuck on the road as soon as they drove out of the street.
“Have you found the train station and airport?”
“Got it, my dad has already sent someone over.” Xie Mingjun said in a hoarse voice, “I stayed there all night, and I also asked someone to check the nearest shift, but the car to her hometown has not yet been dispatched.”
“What about the hotel?”
Xie Mingjun said: “The hotel is more troublesome. I’m still looking for it. If I can’t find it, I will call the police.”
“It shouldn’t be.” Chu Ning’an said, “It stands to reason that Dong Yin once said that she would go back very late every year for Chinese New Year…I remembered, did she go to take the bus.”
“What bus?” Xie Mingjun paused, remembered something, and said, “I’ll go right now, you go back first, if you can’t find me, I’ll find you.”
After talking on the phone, Chu Ning’an dared to say, “I think… Dong Yin is right to do this.”
Lu Hanqiu looked at her from the rearview mirror, “You know again?”
“I think it’s good to be so tough. I don’t know how to describe it. Anyway, I think it’s good, so I should be angry.” Chu Ning’an said, “This time it shouldn’t be thanks to quarreling with Dong Yin, young couples won’t quarrel. She is so big and Dongyin is so temperamental, she won’t be angry if she hums twice, she must be thanking her for what happened.”
“Last time we went to her house, I could see that she was very angry and wanted us to leave, but she endured it, but she still didn’t want to drive us away. This time she must have encountered her inverse scales, so she ran away.”
The two of them were stuck in the car. Today’s travel peak, rushing back to their hometown, rushing home, everyone must find a place to belong before the new year.
·
Xie Mingjun found Dongyin.
The bus station was full of people, and it was blocked all the way to the overpass, and the car could not drive past it, but Xie Mingjun felt that Dong Yin was here.
It’s just that the crowd separated the distance. She stood outside for two hours before entering. She found Dong Yin according to the number on the ticket.
There were too many people waiting to go back, one after another, and there was not even a place to sit, so Dong Yin sat on the ground with her back to her.
She walked to Dong Yin’s side and squatted down. Dong Yin didn’t move, and she didn’t move. After a while, a drop or two of water fell on the cold marble floor.
Xie Mingjun moved her lips and wanted to speak, but Dong Yin said softly, “I didn’t play tricks with anyone, and I didn’t think about making trouble without reason. I just felt sad and didn’t want to stay there.”
“I know.” Xie Mingjun’s voice was hoarse, “I’m sorry, I’m late, Dong Yin, I’m sorry.”
Dong Yin stretched out her palms, and there was a ticket lying in the palm print, and said, “My ticket has expired, and I will be leaving last night, but I want to wait, I think you will definitely find me.”
“I’m sorry.” Xie Mingjun’s eyes were sore.
She all understands that Dong Yin is so independent, she is so strong, if Dong Yin really runs away, she really can’t find Dong Yin.
“Why did you come here?” Dong Yin’s face was wet, and she reached out to wipe her face.
Apologizing is the most useless, Dong Yin can run so fast, one can imagine how unbearable what happened in the few hours she was gone.
That’s not being watched by some square dance aunt, not being sad today and forgetting about it tomorrow, but being looked at with contempt by many rich and powerful people.
She took her own dignity, cut out her wounds and ravaged her. Only then could she make a comeback.
“Xie Mingjun.” Dong Yin looked at her, tears fell directly, the three words were like opening the valve, crying so much that the tears fell, and the hazy eyes could not see anything clearly.
Xie Mingjun’s heart started to tug at it, and it was very uncomfortable. A thorn stuck in her throat. She was so annoyed by others bullying Dong Yin that she wanted to slap her in the face, but she didn’t expect that the people around her would bully her this time.
Saying that her dad was just watching from the sidelines, just not knowing how things were going, was completely justifying him. There are only two statements of participation and ignorance. Her father chose to remain silent and stand by, which means he participated, and even he was one of the main participants.
There’s really no need to let go.
She knew exactly what her father’s virtues were.
Xie Mingjun had sore eyes and sore throat. She went to carry Dongyin’s bag. When Dongyin stood up, she stretched out her hand to hug Dongyin. ,”please forgive me?”
Dong Yin did not speak.
She found Dong Yin from Xie Mingjun, she said sorry a few times, but Dong Yin didn’t reply, she was all quiet, and she pressed her lips tightly.
After leaving the crowded station, they took a long detour. Xie Mingjun went to find his car, fastened Dongyin’s seat belt, and drove back.
Dong Yin pinched the lace of her sleeve and looked at the blocked car in front of her. Xie Mingjun put her hand on the steering wheel. Dong Yin called out to her. She tilted her head and did not take it back. Generally, “Huh?” He lowered his voice again, “What’s wrong?”
Dong Yin was silent for a few seconds and asked, “Have you had a quarrel with your father?”
Xie Mingjun said: “It’s time to make a noise or you have to make a noise.”
“Don’t quarrel with your father, it was Zou Yuxi’s parents who provoked me, not your father, and I kept talking nonsense at the time, and I also scolded people. Your father must not be able to help me, and the Zou family is also your family’s benefactor… …”
Xie Mingjun clapped his palm on the car horn, and there was a lot of beeping, Dong Yin’s words were interrupted, the road ahead was smooth, Xie Mingjun turned the steering wheel and said, “I took you there. Man, if the person he invites bullies you, he is responsible, no matter right or wrong, he is wrong.”
Dong Yin lowered her eyes and hummed.
When the car came out and arrived at their small house, Mr. Xie’s car was already waiting downstairs. Just as Xie Mingjun’s car arrived downstairs, Mr. Xie got out of the car immediately, and Xie Mingjun’s car bypassed him and headed for Garage open.
Mr. Xie got in the car again and asked Uncle Wu to follow. Xie Mingjun parked the car and took Dongyin out of the car. Mr. Xie hurried over to stop the two of them. He looked at Dongyin and apologized earnestly.
“Dong Yin, what happened yesterday was wrong with my uncle. Uncle is here to apologize to you. Uncle should have stood by your side to protect you at that time.” He was still dressed as he was yesterday.
He said again: “I’m really sorry, uncle did something wrong.”
Dong Yin pursed her lips, held Xie Mingjun’s hand tightly, opened her lips a few times, wanted to speak but couldn’t, and went back and forth several times.
“I’ll take you back first.” Xie Mingjun said.
“It’s okay.” Dong Yin stood still, bit her lower lip and said, “I’m not angry anymore.”
Just a few words, and then look up at Mr. Xie.
She didn’t tell Xie Mingjun that she also had “mistakes” like she did in the car. Once she took the mistakes to herself, it would reduce the guilt of the wrongdoers and make them feel at ease.
Dong Yin just said: “It’s Zou Yuxi and the others who are wrong. I know that Mr. Xie is in trouble.”
What’s the difficulty? At the beginning, the Zou family was kind to the Xie family and rescued the Xie family from the fire and water. Hearing the words made his ears callous, and he was very tired.
Mr. Xie sighed, looking at Dong Yin’s eyes with guilt, and said, “Even if their family is kind, they can’t use you for surgery, they’re wrong, they’re wrong, let you go out these two days… Hey, the people of the Zou family have already Let Ming Jun drive away, do you still want to go to your uncle’s house for the New Year?”
Gentle and sincere, asking her sincerely, Dong Yin squeezed Xie Mingjun’s finger again and said, “I want to go, but I’m afraid.”
“What’s there to be afraid of? My family will not entertain other guests this year, especially the Zou family!” Mr. Xie said angrily.
Dong Yin shook her head again and again, “You don’t need such an uncle, you can just do the same as the previous arrangement, just treat me as a guest.”
“That’s not going to work.” Mr. Xie went to open the car door and let them get in. Mr. Xie’s car was big enough to lower the seat, and he could rest for a while. Mr. Xie took the co-pilot and Uncle Wu drove.
Mr. Xie also searched all night. He got into the car, pinched the bridge of his nose, and said, “You two will have a good rest when you get home. It’s still New Year’s Eve today. You woke up and we’ll eat together?”
Dong Yin nodded, Xie Mingjun didn’t speak, and didn’t look at Mr. Xie. Mr. Xie looked at her several times with dim eyes, always helpless.
When I returned to the villa, the traffic flow was smooth. It may be that the travelers have arrived home smoothly, and the cars will not be running around at night.
The city is brightly lit, the neon of the high-rise buildings acts as the stars in the sky, and the twinkling fireworks are pounding in the night.
It’s New Year’s Eve, the last day of the year.
When the car entered the villa area, it was much quieter and colder than the outside. Dong Yin got out of the car and saw Louis XVI—the snowman she built yesterday. Looking under the light, it is not as lovely as the daytime, like being left alone in the yard.
It’s just a snowman, how can he come into the house and celebrate the festival with everyone?
Dong Yin picked up a story book when she was a child, the cover of the book was torn apart, she couldn’t read the title, but she remembered that the protagonist was a snowman who fell in love with a stove and couldn’t extricate herself. The stoves fell in love with it, they loved it madly, but no one supported their love.
People are clamoring to let it roll away, don’t get your expensive carpet wet, and all seasons remind it that it is just a snowman, and it will disappear when winter is over. The snowman doesn’t listen to it or not, it insists on its love and tries hard to get close to the stove , and finally it melted before winter came.
At that time, Dong Yin didn’t understand the core of the story, and it was very sad to see it. She took a pen and cut out a page of paper, and wrote the story later, pretending that they went to heaven to fall in love.
She talked to everyone, that the snowman and the stove were together.
Someone else said: “What stove and snowman? Can’t understand what you’re talking about.”
Dong Yin retracted her gaze, and Mr. Xie asked her with a smile, “I heard from Aunt Lin that you named the snowman, and you plan to tell me, what is it called?”
Dong Yin smiled embarrassedly, “I forgot.”
“It’s okay, take another one.”
Entering the house, it was warm and warm inside, the giant screen in the living room was playing the Spring Festival Gala, singing folk songs, laughing and laughing.
Mr. Xie asked, “Do you eat first or rest first?”
Xie Mingjun spoke, “rest first.”
Going upstairs, she called Aunt Lin, “Just make some dumplings.”
Aunt Lin spoke up and tried her best to get emotional, “Well, I’ll pack a few coins in it to make me happy.”
Xie Mingjun hummed, went back to the house, and dragged Dong Yin into her house again.
Auntie Lin went to comfort Mr. Xie, offered him a cup of tea, and said, “Sir, drink some water, and take a rest later. Now that someone is back, Ming-Jun won’t be really angry with you. Father and daughter have no overnight feud. , I will cook a reunion dinner tomorrow, and the family will enjoy it.”
“Thanks for your hard work.”
Not only Xie Mingjun was tired, but Mr. Xie was also exhausted. He glanced at his mobile phone, pressed the screen fiercely, and hung up the incoming call. A trivial matter had to be such a big deal. People are uneasy, and it really gives them Zou’s face.
He froze, his face gloomy.
It looked extraordinarily infiltrating at night.

Upstairs, Dong Yin took a bath, and she crawled into the quilt. No one slept in the quilt all day and night. It was no different from the ice cave. She hugged her arms and huddled under the quilt.
Xie Mingjun was taking a bath. She wanted to wait for Xie Mingjun, but she was so sleepy that she closed her eyes and fell asleep. She didn’t tell Xie Mingjun. She ran and found that she couldn’t get a taxi, so she kept walking along the map. After walking for a long time, she saw a bus. Because the bus was not direct, she got down and continued walking. , I didn’t arrive at the station until it was dark.
My feet hurt and my boots were dirty.
She fell into a deep sleep and had a messy dream. She opened her eyes and saw Xie Mingjun sitting on the chair next to the desk. She still didn’t sleep, did nothing, didn’t know what she was thinking, and was very quiet.
Dong Yin didn’t know what time it was. She went to touch the phone, but couldn’t find it. She went to see Xie Mingjun again and found that the phone was on the table.
The curtains were opened by a thumb-width gap, no moonlight came in, and it was pitch black outside, not like the arrival of the New Year, nor like it was still New Year’s Eve, the night was quiet.
Dong Yin got off the bed, and Xie Mingjun asked her, “Where are you going?”
Her voice was dull, not fierce, as if she had lost her strength, and was astringent. Dong Yin brought the clothes bag over, smeared and took out the backpack from it.
Xie Mingjun came over and looked at her. Dong Yin climbed into the bed again, sleeping on her side, her head against the pillow, her fingers tucked into the quilt and clenched tightly.
“Xie Mingjun.” She called softly, shivering.
“Um?”
Xie Mingjun didn’t sleep all night, her eyes were red.
Dong Yin pursed her lips and took out her hand from the quilt. She took a box and pushed it to the side of the bed little by little, saying, “New Year’s gift.”
Xie Mingjun sat on the edge of the bed, and Dong Yin continued to push it to her hand, rubbing against the skin on the back of her hand, asking Xie Mingjun to take it.
Xie Mingjun swallowed, and the breath choked in her throat for a long time before falling. She opened the box and said, “Do you still have money to buy this?”
Then she froze.
The red box, after opening it, lay two rings inside. It was golden and different from today’s aesthetics. It looked a bit rustic.
Dong Yin said: “I can afford it. I bought this first, and the rest of the money will be used to buy other gifts… You and I, the one with pinky fingers, do you think it looks good? The counter lady said that you can carry this for transport. Said that if you don’t like it, you can change it, and you can adjust the size…”
Xie Mingjun held the gold ring, the small ring, with the coldness of winter, she fiddled with it again in the palm of her hand.
Dongyin added, “It’s engraved on it.”
Xie Mingjun turned the ring, which read “I will have you in my life”, the corners of her mouth moved and she smiled
