A Joyful Boy: From Meeting the Drunk Song Qian

Song Qian continued, "How's your decision?"

Just as Su Chen was about to answer, his phone rang again.

This time it wasn't Yang Tao, but Lan Caiping.

I was also asking him if he had time.

How about we grab a bite to eat together?

However, Su Chen wasn't that concerned about this, since Lan Weiwei wasn't there.

What's the point of me having dinner with you two old folks?

But Su Chen didn't refuse directly. Instead, he said, "Yang Tao invited me to her house for lunch today. How about we go together? We can make a video call to Weiwei then and have a family reunion for the New Year."

Lan Caiping was taken aback when she heard this and instinctively wanted to refuse.

But Lan Weiwei's father agreed.

"That's definitely a good suggestion."

"What good suggestion? You're supposed to be having dinner with our family, but you ended up eating next door and you're happy about it?"

The more Lan Caiping cared about Su Chen, the more she couldn't stand Xue Sumei's boasting.

Lan Weiwei's father said, "Think about it, if this child really had something on his mind, why would he tell us about having dinner with Xue Sumei's family during the Spring Festival?"

"Why don't you just go to his place at noon and come here in the evening?"

"Since he was able to bring this up and even offer a suggestion, it proves he has nothing to hide, which I think is good."

Lan Caiping thought about it and realized that it made sense.

So they agreed.

They were going to have lunch together on New Year's Eve, but she needed to call Xue Sumei first.

Su Chen wiped away the cold sweat.

I didn't expect it to actually happen.

Song Qian placed her hands on the table, her eyes fixed on him.

"I'll keep you company tonight," Su Chen said, his words carrying a double meaning.

Song Qian blushed and nodded excitedly.

Before Qiao Yingzi could even feel happy, Su Chen's phone rang again.

721: There are too many people, it's too troublesome to talk to them one by one.

When Su Chen got home, he wrote down all the people who had called him that day on the blackboard.

Star fruit.

Lan Caiping.

Li Meng.

Jiang Nansun.

Gao Baojing.

How happy I am.

Upon seeing these familiar names, I crossed out the last three.

These people are all in Shanghai; a few simple words of blessing over the phone are all it takes.

We do need to send him to the first few places.

Yang Tao and Lan Caiping have already made arrangements to have a reunion dinner with them at noon.

That’s easy.

Then there's Li Meng.

"How should this time be arranged?" Su Chen stared at the blackboard, lost in thought.

At noon, it's Yang Tao and Lan Caiping's family; in the evening, it has to be with Song Qian and her family.

After all, Tong Wenjie and Xiao Meng are here too. If I leave, wouldn't I be letting myself down?

"How about we schedule it for the second day of the Lunar New Year? Would the second day of the Lunar New Year be inauspicious?"

After thinking about it, Su Chen called Li Meng and set the date for the second day of the Lunar New Year.

"Why can't you come on the first day of the lunar new year? Noon is fine too." Li Meng asked on the phone.

"The second day of the Lunar New Year isn't the time to visit one's maternal grandparents, so I can bring you gifts instead."

Su Chen had already prepared his sweet words, and Li Meng succumbed to them after hearing just a few.

Finish dealing with things here.

The doorbell rang again.

Liu Jing knocked on the door and came in.

Su Chen had her lie down on the sofa, and he stood to the side to begin the treatment.

"Hmm... I see you're home alone. It's almost Chinese New Year, do you need to prepare any New Year's goods? I... we have some things at home that we can't finish, so I can bring you some." Liu Jing didn't know how to repay Su Chen.

I was thinking of sending them something.

Actually, Su Chen didn't need anything, since he himself benefited quite a bit from this treatment.

However, since the other party has brought it up...

Su Chen naturally wouldn't refuse her kind offer.

.......

Half an hour later, Liu Jing opened the door to her home.

Ji Shengli was watching TV at home.

"Honey, where have you been so late?"

Liu Jing was taken aback when she heard the voice; she hadn't expected Ji Shengli to be home at this time.

My heart tightened.

But having weathered many storms, he showed no sign of tension.

After changing my shoes, I headed towards the kitchen.

"Why are you leaving get off work so early today?"

"Oh, it's almost Chinese New Year. I've been writing documents and doing a year-end summary these past few days. I'll be back soon if there's nothing else to do."

"Have you eaten yet? Do you want me to cook you something? My brother brought over a lot of food again, so I can cook more."

"No need, there's food at the company, I'll eat before I come back."

She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Ji Shengli continued to focus on the television.

I tidied up the kitchen quickly and glanced at the refrigerator and the things on the floor.

There are mountain delicacies.

It has a seafood flavor.

There were also some wild game.

They are all vacuum-packed after processing, so they are exceptionally fresh.

However, there are only two people in his family now, so they can't eat that much food.

It'll just go bad if you leave it at home.

I quickly tidied up a stack of them.

They separated the mountain delicacies and wild game, intending to give these to Su Chen as New Year's gifts.

"Wife, why did you suddenly separate the things your brother sent?"

Just as Liu Jing had composed herself, she was startled by the sudden sound.

"You startled me. I saw Su Chen at home alone, without any New Year's goods prepared. These things were meant to be given to him as New Year's gifts."

Ji Shengli, hands behind his back, asked, "His parents haven't come back yet?"

"No, I'm home alone."

"Oh, speaking of Su Chen, I just remembered that Fang Yuan called me and said we'd have dinner together during the Chinese New Year at Teacher Song's house. Shall we go together?"

722: Liu Jing delivers New Year's goods

Liu Jing thought about it and agreed.

Ji Yangyang is abroad and not coming back, so it's not very interesting for the two of them to spend the New Year alone in the house.

It's better to have a meal with friends.
