Pat Me Please - Chapter 76

On New Year’s Eve, the sound of skits at the Spring Festival Gala and the skyrocketing fireworks make this day the most precious day of the year.

At 11:45, Yu Zhou received a call from Su Chang.

Her side was very quiet, but Yu Zhou’s side was very noisy, so she stepped up the stairs and went to the bedroom on the second floor to listen to her talk.

But Su Chang didn’t say anything, just said to her softly: “Happy New Year.”

It was said in advance, maybe she was afraid that after zero o’clock, there would be no such quiet time.

Yu Zhou smiled and said, “Happy New Year.”

“Well, tell my aunt and uncle for me.”

Her voice was a bit delicate, which made Yu Zhou unhappy, and laughed: “Aren’t some people very upright? It is said that they used to send WeChat during Chinese New Year and holidays. Why, can’t you post it by yourself this time?”

The other side of the phone whispered softly, “I want you to speak for me this time.”

It’s numb, her ears are numb, Yu Zhou can’t stand it a little bit, she knows her ears are burning.

She was a little awkward, so she changed the subject: “Why is it so quiet over there, don’t you watch TV?”

“No.”

“Your parents don’t watch either?”

“I’m alone.” Su Chang said.

“Huh? You didn’t go home?”

“No.”

“Why, what about your parents?” Yu Zhou frowned.

“Hmm…” Su Chang thought for a while, “My father and grandma are still in Canada, and my mother is in Germany, probably.”

This is roughly, very subtle, and only specific to the country. Yu Zhou carefully recalled that they have been together for more than three years. In the first year, they went back to each house and found their mothers. That year, Su Chang lived with her parents and grandfather.

In the second and third years, she went home with Yu Zhou. At that time, Yu Zhou felt that she loved him very much, so every time he said that he didn’t want to go home alone, Su Chang pondered for a moment and agreed. up.

She also said to Su Chang: “You go home with me first, and you don’t have to go to work after the Spring Festival, so you can go back to spend time with your parents, okay?”

Su Chang said yes.

Later, when they were busy, they forgot about going home, and neither of them mentioned it.

Yu Zhou used his own family relationship to imagine her, thinking that she also did some parental work behind the scenes. After all, she also sent WeChat and phone calls to her parents from time to time, and it seemed that everything was normal.

She didn’t ask Su Chang’s family too much, because she asked once before if Su Chang would come out to the family, but Su Chang said she didn’t think so, so she tried not to mention it.

But she didn’t know that since the outbreak of the epidemic, Su Chang hadn’t seen her parents for two years.

Yu Zhou didn’t know what to say. When she came back to her senses, the countdown had already started downstairs. She asked Su Chang, “Would you like to come to my house to celebrate the New Year?”

Su Chang smiled and said, “How many people do you want to bring home for the New Year?”

Ah, this… is indeed a little embarrassing.

“Hmm…” Yu Zhou also felt a little uncomfortable, but she said, “We’re all friends, and my mother knows about it, so there shouldn’t be any problem.”

“No,” Su Chang said, “Let Xiang Wan take a good rest. We ran a lot of projects a year ago, and there will be more after the festival. I’m afraid she will think of work when she sees me and get nervous.”

“oh.”

Yu Zhou touched the cold window with his hand.

When I hung up the phone, it was already 2023, and they had passed the new year together. Su Chang said to her again: “Happy New Year, Zhou Zhou.”

“Happy New Year.”

The next day was the first day of the Lunar New Year, and Ms. Zhao got up early to cook glutinous rice balls, four for each person, making a fortune in all seasons. After eating the hot glutinous rice balls, Xiang Wan’s face turned red. After taking a break, the group went out to shop. Yu Zhou’s family usually doesn’t visit other homes, but relatives who are close will come to her house for dinner.

Because the room is big, the dining table is also big, and a large table can be seated.

Usually it is her aunt and two uncles, one big round table and one small low table, so they can sit neatly.

After buying vegetables and returning home, Ms. Zhao and Yu’s father started to cook, Xiang Wan helped, and Yu Zhou cleaned the house.

The door was open, and relatives came in spontaneously, threw their bags on the sofa, and sat down to peel peanuts after greeting each other. The little uncle and aunt went to help in the kitchen, and the two aunts sat on the sofa to see who had the better hair color.

When Xiang Wan came out with the dishes, the aunt said “Hey” and asked Ms. Zhao who came out to set the dishes, “Which family’s sister?”

“My daughter, Xiang Wan, is she beautiful?” Ms. Zhao was a little proud.

Then he took Xiang Wan’s hand and introduced them one by one, saying that he was a voice actor, and now he is also a little famous on the Internet.

The aunts refused to let Xiang Ban in to cook, and dragged her to sit on the sofa, and asked her which TV dramas she had acted in, and whether there were any roles they had heard of.

Xiang Wan chatted with his aunts slowly and politely, and when he encountered something he didn’t know how to answer, he looked at Yu Zhou again, and Yu Zhou came to rescue him.

“Oh, why didn’t your friend come?” The little aunt patted Yu Zhou’s thigh.

“Which one?” Yu Zhou pretended to be confused with understanding.

“Su… Su, that thing is also dubbed.” The little aunt was blunt, very strange, “It’s so strange, did you start a dubbing class in Jiangcheng? Why are you friends with dubbing actors?”

Xiang Wan twitched the corner of his mouth, Yu Zhou was very embarrassed.

The meal began, and the elders and juniors all took their seats one after another. Yu Zhou, Xiang Wan, and cousins ​​sat at the children’s table. The second cousin and uncle brought a box of beer back from the car and put it on the table, and the second cousin washed it. After finishing his hand, he didn’t sit down, and lightly touched Yu Zhou’s back.

“Hey, sister.”

“Ah?” Yu Zhou held the bowl and turned to look at him.

“Come here.” The second cousin signaled her to follow him to the door of the bathroom.

“What’s the matter? I didn’t give you any red envelopes. You are only one year younger than me. You should be ashamed.” Yu Zhou still held the bowl.

“I saw Su singing outside.” The second cousin said.

ha? Yu Zhou’s bowl was about to drop.

“True or not?” She said in the loudest voice, with exaggerated mouth shape.

The second cousin knew about her relationship with Su Chang. When she took Su Chang home in the first year, the two confessed in private. The second cousin covered them up and charged a small red envelope.

“I look like it.” The second cousin put his pocket in his pocket and licked his chin outside, “Go out and have a look, it’s at the intersection, anyway, that car looks like it.”

The boy is always sensitive to cars. If he hadn’t looked at the car twice, he wouldn’t have noticed Su Chang.

Yu Zhou’s heart was beating like numbness, he hurriedly put down the bowls and chopsticks, and ran outside.

Sure enough, she saw Su Chang’s car from a distance, and she stood beside the car, sending her wechat with her head buried. Wearing a black cashmere coat, her hair was tied up, with a few strands scattered on the side of her face, looking cold and gentle.

Yu Zhou’s mouth was a little tight, she ran over, and the sound of footsteps disturbed Su Chang.

Su Chang raised his head, holding the mobile phone in his hand, and said with a smile, “I just wanted to send you a WeChat message.”

She didn’t remember which one it was, um…to be exact, she didn’t decide whether to go in or not.

Although we talked about it yesterday, she couldn’t control it and had nothing to do, so she came here.

“Didn’t you not come? You drove here for a few hours, maybe four or five hours?” It was a bit cold outside, Yu Zhou shrunk his neck and his hands into his sleeves.

“Well, there happens to be a client here, so I’ll stop by and take a look.” Su Chang said.

Su often uses “um” in singing, and also when lying.

“Your voice project, how many customers have to go out of town, and it’s too old for the Chinese New Year.” Yu Zhou hated her, and couldn’t even edit.

“No, I told you before, my dad has a small investment company, the legal person is me, but he has a friend who wants to buy a share, he asked me to bring some materials and documents to talk about it, if it is possible over there, Just cooperate with him to go through the equity change procedures.”

I don’t know if it’s true or not, but Yu Zhou thought, no one will talk about the project on the first day of the new year.

“Then… let’s go in and eat, we’re still eating.” Yu Zhou was really cold, so he shrank his neck and let out a “hiss”.

If you stomp your feet again, your feet will freeze.

Su Chang put the phone away and said, “Okay.”

Leading Su Chang into the door, everyone at the table looked over, Xiang Wan was taken aback, then stood up and said hello: “Teacher Su.”

Ms. Zhao was also stunned, and then she was very pleasantly surprised. The female voice was an octave higher: “Sing!”

“Happy New Year, Auntie.” Su Chang said with a smile.

Ms. Zhao greeted her overjoyed, and pulled her in: “Oh, I’m here to celebrate the New Year. How did you come here? Did you come by car? Oh, my hands are numb from the cold, come here, come here, we are still eating, auntie Bring you the dishes.”

She pressed Su Chang on the table and went into the kitchen to get the dishes.

“Sister, what is this?” My aunt didn’t come back two years ago, and she didn’t see Su Chang before.

“I, another goddaughter, Su Chang. You can just sing and sing.” Ms. Zhao waved her chopsticks.

“Sister, you have done so much to your daughter.”

“Oh, well, you are lucky, everyone is very good.” Ms. Zhao sat down and wanted to add food to Su Chang.

Su Chang’s back was touched, and Yu Zhou stood behind: “Hey!”

Su Chang turned his head.

“You sit at our table! This table is full of adults.” Yu Zhou whispered.

“…” Su Chang was a little embarrassed. Auntie let her sit just now, and auntie also arranged the dishes.

“Mom,” Yu Zhou called Ms. Zhao, “I asked Su Chang to go to our table, she doesn’t drink, she’s driving.”

“Oh, yes, yes, yes.” Ms. Zhao slapped her forehead, “Then you can go to the small table. The food and drink are the same, but it’s a bit shorter.”

Su Chang’s aura is too strong, she instinctively wants Su Chang to sit at the main table.

Yu Zhou helped her get the bowls and chopsticks, the second cousin consciously gave up a seat, and Su Chang sat next to Yu Zhou.

Xiang Wan was also concerned about why she came here. They chatted while eating, and the cousin chatted with each other while eating. The two cousins ​​watched the football game while eating, and didn’t talk much.

Yu Zhou asked Su Chang in a low voice: “Are you feeling uncomfortable? This stool is a bit short.”

She has a bad waist and long hands and feet, so it may be uncomfortable to shrink here.

“It’s not uncomfortable.” Su Chang said.

She looked at Yu Zhou and didn’t say a word. The way Yu Zhou brought her down just now made her feel very comfortable.

It seems to be back to the time when Yu Zhou directly decided the size and arrangement between the two of them.
