After breakfast the next day, the Shen Residence started getting lively. Shen Yue and Uncle Wang were taking care of the plants in the yard as Shen Wenna and Aunt Xu were making dumplings for the reunion dinner. While City Z was in the north, many families had the practice of eating dumplings for their reunion dinner, so Shen Wenna made some too.
Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye were handling the calligraphy couplets and lanterns.
They worked until 6 p.m. in the evening before the family had their reunion dinner joyously. Because the couple needed to hurry back to the Mu Residence, Shen Yue and Shen Wenna sent them off.
"I got Uncle Wang to put some gifts into the trunk. Give them to your grandparents and parents. Take some time to visit us after the New Year." Shen Yue stood by the door and was starting to miss Xi Xiaye already.
In the end, the girl still had to go... Every time he thought about this, he felt like his treasure was being snatched away, and he felt empty and sour inside.
"Please be happy and well, Chen. Send my regards to your parents and grandparents," Shen Wenna told him.
The couple nodded. "Grandpa, Mother, please get back in. It's pretty cold outside. I'll be sure to return with Xiaye after the New Year."
"Okay, get in the car. It's getting late soon. They're going to be worried!"
A rare gentle smile broke across Shen Wenna's frigid face as she patted Xi Xiaye's shoulder before she guided Shen Yue back into the house.
"Mmm, we'll go now. Grandpa and Mother, please go back inside too." Xi Xiaye felt a little sullen as she sat on the front passenger seat and waved to them.
"Remember to come back frequently. Give us a call before coming over. Grandpa will prepare your favorite dish at home. Maple Residence isn't that far away from here..."
While Shen Yue's voice sounded old, it had a very strong intent in it. Xi Xiaye nodded obediently.
The car started leaving the Shen Residence under the night sky.
The whole City Z was very lively. They could hear the sound of firecrackers and fireworks and they passed through the streets. One by one, the fireworks went off in the night sky and Xi Xiaye stared at them with her clear eyes.
Suddenly, her phone started vibrating at the side and she came back to her senses. Taking a glimpse, she noticed that it was Su Nan calling her.
"Su Nan?" She picked up the call.
"Xiaye? Happy New Year's Eve!"
Su Nan's sweet voice came over from the phone. "It's the first day of the New Year tomorrow. Come out and relax tomorrow night!"
"Tomorrow night? Umm..."
Xi Xiaye looked at Mu Yuchen hesitantly while Su Nan just went on, "I know you're a woman with a family right now, but aren't I too? You know what? Bring your man over as well. I've booked a room at Emperor and invited a few good friends. You know some of them too! Consider it a celebration for both our marriages and also a New Year celebration..."
Su Nan's voice bombarded her ears. Xi Xiaye hesitated before asking Mu Yuchen, "Su Nan's inviting us for a gathering at Emperor. Do you..."
"You should go out and relax more. I won't bother your friends' gathering. Zhou Zimo has invited me to his place for cards, so you decide for yourself whether you want to follow me or go with your friends," he replied quietly.
