Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

Before the New Year holiday, people always look forward to it and even place high hopes on it. Those who are unemployed wait to find a job after the New Year, those who are single prepare to start dating after the New Year, those who are not married prepare to get married after the New Year, and those who are sick prepare to tough it out until the New Year. It seems that as long as the New Year is over, all the hardships and misfortunes of the year will disappear.

It's as if the Lunar New Year is the factory default setting on a phone; once you press it, everything, good or bad, will start anew.

When I was a child, I always looked forward to the Chinese New Year because I would get new clothes, candy, toys, and pocket money. But as I grew up, the Chinese New Year felt rather dull.

Especially in the past, families would set out a lavish meal for the Lunar New Year, but now that's just for entertaining us. Once the phone charger is unplugged, many people come back for the Lunar New Year again.

Lin Mo was a little better off, at least he was close to home, but he still felt that Chuan Mei and Wang Chu were the real outsiders.

In the past, they had summer and winter vacations with them, but after this year, if they want to go home, they will have to wait until the end of the year, or at least until October 1st.

Lin Mo and Liu Ruyan returned home and took all the bags and packages from the car with them.

Fortunately, the doors and windows are well-sealed. After not returning for more than half a month, there is not much dust inside the house, and it can be moved in after a little cleaning.

"Pack your things, we'll go downstairs in a bit, let's eat together at the studio downstairs, Sister Yuan and Chuanmei are calling!" Lin Mo said.

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan, barefoot, lay on the sofa and shook her head: "You go ahead, I won't go. I'm too tired. I don't have your energy. Sigh, I'm getting old, I can't play anymore!"

Lin Mo:
"Are you too lazy to move and also afraid of the cold?!"

Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes at him: "You still know that! It's already past five o'clock. I just drove back. I don't want to get out of the car. I still need to get dressed!"

"Okay, what do you want to eat?" Lin Mo asked.

Liu Ruyan: "There's still some instant noodles at home. You can bring some back for me after you finish eating. It's already this late, you guys aren't going to go out and play until midnight, are you?"

"Okay, then you stay home and rest. I'm going downstairs!" Lin Mo nodded, then changed his shoes and went downstairs to spend some time with his friends. He had things to do tomorrow!

Soon, Lin Mo arrived at the studio downstairs. As soon as he entered, Miss Yuan handed him a bottle of Anmuxi yogurt.

"Come on, don't be shy, drink up! We can't stop making yogurt now that the New Year is over!" Miss Yuan said.

Upon seeing this, Lin Mo felt a wave of dizziness. During his time at home, he had forgotten that there was such a thing as yogurt here. Now that he thought about it, Liu Ruyan's refusal to come down might also be due to her unwillingness to drink yogurt.

"Why are you alone? Where are the others?" Lin Mo asked after taking a big gulp of his drink under Miss Yuan's expectant gaze.

At this moment, only Miss Yuan was in the room. Of course, Wangcai was also there, but Sangbiao was not. It seemed that he had gone to wander again.

"He went to buy food, huh? Where's Liu Ruyan?" Miss Yuan asked.

Lin Mo shook his head: "She's not coming. She's resting upstairs. She said she's tired!"

"Hey, now you know it's not good, right? I told you long ago that this old man's health is terrible. Why do you like old cucumbers?" Miss Yuan mocked.

Lin Mo rolled his eyes at him, thinking, "What an old geezer! If Liu Ruyan knew, she'd be furious."

As for poor health, compared to Miss Yuan, who isn't in good health? She's called "Little Calf" for a reason; she's in excellent health.

Of course, with the "Safe Travels" buff, at least for the rest of the year, as long as they don't do anything reckless like jumping off a building, swimming in a wild river, or having a car accident, they shouldn't get sick. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked Chuanmei to use the buff today.

Even if you go out in the rain, you probably won't get a fever.

From this perspective, they are now at least on the same starting line.

However, although neither of them gets sick, there are still differences in their physical fitness. At least Miss Yuan is very energetic and doesn't get tired easily.

Just as he was about to say something in defense of his girlfriend, his phone suddenly rang. When he picked it up, he found that it was Lao Wan calling.

Upon seeing this, he couldn't help but press the call button.

"Hey, what's up, bro?"

"Jinzi, where are you?" Old Wan's voice came through the phone.

"I'm already back in Jiangning, so what?"

Wang Jianyang's dad called me and said he wants to talk!

Hearing this, Miss Yuan couldn't help but look over. Lin Mo was somewhat taken aback: "How did his father know your phone number?"

[Why don't you ask our high school classmates? I was just thinking of checking on your situation. Oh, I heard Wang Jianyang has been arrested, and apparently, if he's sentenced, they're waiting for the trial.]

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo rolled his eyes and said, "Of course, drunk driving and dangerous driving, shouldn't it be punished?"
As for you, eat and drink as you please. First of all, the car isn't yours, and secondly, you weren't driving it. Just say you don't know anything and that's it. If his family has a way, they can try; if they don't, they can go to jail. What else is there to say?

"What, do you think you can get him out of legal trouble, or do you think Sister Yuan and I look like such magnanimous people?"

【Yeah, anyway, I just wanted to share this news with you. I'm hanging up now.】 "Hang up. I'll call you when I get back. Remember, don't give my contact information to anyone else. I don't want to deal with his parents!"

Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!

The two exchanged a few words and hung up the phone. Upon seeing this, Lin Mo and Miss Yuan exchanged a glance and burst out laughing.

"I suddenly feel like we've been really bad," Miss Yuan said, her shoulders trembling, like a naughty child who had done something wrong.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo waved his hands repeatedly: "Stop, at most we can only be considered gloating, it's not bad. Did we let him drive drunk? Or did we let him drive recklessly?"
No, that's not it. Besides, Sister Yuan, you didn't even make him pay for the car; you're so kind!

"Yes, yes, I'm so kind, that's so true to me," Miss Yuan said with her hands on her hips, puffing out her chest and looking smug.

Soon, the class monitor and the others returned with their food. It wasn't a proper meal, just some grilled skewers, grilled cold noodles, roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), fried chicken strips, and the like.

After all, ordering two dishes at a restaurant is too slow. As for being unclean? You're kidding. At this time of year, and before school starts, it's good enough if there's anything to eat nearby. What more could you ask for?
"Speaking of which, tomorrow is March, what's our first day of school again?" Lin Mo asked while eating.

Since moving out, even though he hasn't graduated, Lin Mo feels like he's lost touch with school. He doesn't even read the messages his advisor sends in the class group anymore!

"March 5th. This year, the Spring Festival is late and it coincides with the Lantern Festival, so the school decided to start school on March 5th. Every year it is March 1st. The counselor said that those who have not found a job should go to the classroom on the morning of March 6th. Also, we need to take a count of the students who are still living on campus."

"Although we're still living here, we've already found jobs, so it's up to us whether we go or not. But since graduation is coming up in the second half of the year, if you're free, you can still go and listen to the lectures," the class monitor said from the side.

The class monitor was quite familiar with the information in the group chat, since the advisor would sometimes talk to her privately.

They used to think that the class monitor was very righteous, and sometimes they even felt bad about it. So whenever the class monitor had any announcements, the boys in their dormitory and even their class would respond enthusiastically. But ever since they found out that the class monitor was also a so-called "corrupt official," that filter disappeared immediately.

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded. At this moment, Director Wang suddenly raised his hand: "Hey, Sister Yuan, do you have any spare rooms? The squad leader and I have decided that we want to move out after the New Year!"

Hearing this, He Xiaoyue rolled her eyes at the two of them and said, "You think the hotel is too expensive? You don't even earn enough to cover your hotel expenses!"

Upon hearing this, the class monitor's face flushed red, and he immediately punched He Xiaoyue, yelling, "Get lost!"

"Are you still embarrassed? You tell me yourself, I came back on the ninth day of the first lunar month. On the tenth day, I didn't see you in the dormitory at all. On the eleventh, we went to Jiangning to find Mozi, and then the two of you lived together openly."

You tell me, what difference does it make to me whether you have a roommate or not? I'll never see him anyway.

I used to think you were worried about being alone in the dorm, but now it seems you had to go back because you were taking medicine to regulate your body!
"Sister Yuan, I want to apply to move out too! I don't want to be alone in an empty house!" He Xiaoyue wailed.

Miss Yuan nodded in response: "No problem, I already said I would provide you with dormitories. I'll call Lao Ma over tomorrow and ask him!"

Miss Yuan is always loyal to her own people, no doubt about it, except for those who steal her food, of course.

At this moment, the Sichuan girl, oblivious to the danger, grabbed the last grilled sausage and was about to stuff it into her mouth.

Upon seeing this, Miss Yuan immediately shouted, "Stop! Put the sausage down!"

Upon hearing this, the Sichuan girl thought for a moment and then stuffed the last grilled sausage into her mouth and licked it clean: "Sister Yuan, this is my portion, two sausages each. Yours is finished, this is mine, I paid for it, and I ran the errand!"

The Sichuan girl tried to reason with Miss Yuan to get her to give up the sausage that rightfully belonged to her, but she was blinded by her own ignorance. Miss Yuan has never disappointed when it comes to protecting her food.

Seeing the Sichuan girl slurping up the sausage, her eyes reddened. After standing there stunned for three seconds, Miss Yuan took a deep breath and said calmly, "I'm going to buy some sausages. Sichuan girl, you come with me!"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned. They thought Miss Yuan would fly into a rage and yell, "Fuck you, I'll beat you to death!" But she was so gentle.
Without a word, Miss Yuan pulled Chuanmei up from the chair and walked out. Seeing this, the remaining four exchanged glances, quickly got up, went to the window, and secretly observed through the glass.

Sure enough, the two had walked less than ten meters when, to everyone's astonishment, Miss Yuan picked up a stone block from the curb, determined to make Chuanmei go see her great-grandmother.

The stone block was something that most men couldn't lift, but Miss Yuan lifted it and charged at the Sichuan girl.

Holy crap!

"Awesome!"

"Hurry up and save people!"

Everyone gasped in surprise and rushed out the door. At this moment, the girl from Sichuan was so frightened that she ran away screaming.

"Sister Yuan, Sister Yuan, calm down! I'll buy it, I'll go buy it! Let's talk this out! We have to be reasonable!"

"Pah! Don't give me that wailing. I'm too lazy to reason with you. You're not worthy to listen, Flame of Nawa!"

Everyone:
How to put it... this scene gives people the feeling of Lin Daiyu uprooting a willow tree and angrily smashing it against Lu Zhishen.
