New Year's Eve.

Since the afternoon in Jiangcheng, most of the people on the street have stayed at home, and Xia Yan is no exception. The shopping in the supermarket with Lu Zhengting on the afternoon of the 29th is now neatly placed in the refrigerator, each in its place.Xiaohan and Lu Zhengting originally wanted to celebrate the New Year with her, but she rejected them with righteous words.She naturally did not agree to go to Dongshan Villa for the New Year.

In the afternoon, Xia Yan heard a knock on the door. When she opened the door, she saw Xia Minghui. She was not surprised, but she was also a little surprised.At Xia Minghui's request, she followed him back to Xia's house for the new year.

The meaning of the New Year to Xia Yan is not very clear in words. In fact, her identity in the Xia family has never been truly recognized, except for Xia Minghui who turned a blind eye, Xia Siyue and Mrs. Xia both Dissatisfied with herself, and Xia Siyue is even more thorn in her side and thorn in her flesh.

Xia Yan followed Xia Minghui to the villa, Mrs. Xia's reaction was normal and she felt any surprise, which meant that she had known for a long time that she would come back for the New Year.And when Xia Siyue saw herself after coming out of the room, her eyes were very unfriendly, but this was not a big deal in Xia Yan's eyes.

On New Year's Eve, Xia Yan sat next to Xia Minghui, consciously ignoring Xia Siyue's eyes looking at him, and finished the reunion dinner as if nothing had happened.The room she used to live in remained the same without any changes, Xia Yan found a reason to go back to the room after eating.Looks like she won't be able to go back to the apartment tonight.

She walked in the room, reaching out to touch the things that once belonged to her from time to time, they all had the same touch, and the layout of the room was still the same as before, Xia Yan walked to the balcony.Opening the window slightly, a small opening was exposed, and cold light poured in directly, and she couldn't help shivering.

The surroundings of Xia's villa were mostly covered by planted plants, and Xia Yan's room was all arranged by Mrs. Xia at that time, so the lighting in this room was not very good, and the light in the daytime was basically covered by the leaves. Covering it, let alone at night, compared with Xia Siyue's room, there is of course a big gap.

With both hands resting casually on the window rail, Xia Yan stretched his head forward a little, the window was completely dark, except for the half-missed moon in the sky emitting a quiet light and the stars staying beside it trying to embellish its beauty, When the dark clouds dispersed, the color of the sky became very dark blue, as if with a charming dizziness, which made people unable to move their eyes away after seeing it.

"Ding ding ding..."

The cell phone rang suddenly, breaking the silence of the night, Xia Yan frowned, turned around and glanced at the bright light of the cell phone she put on the bed, she walked over carelessly, it was not a phone call, but a text message.

The contents of the text messages are all related to the New Year, and almost all of them are New Year greetings.

She opened them one by one, and then replied one by one.

After the work was done, she subconsciously turned her phone to silent, and then sat in a daze. She seemed to wish that she was now in the little world that really belonged to her in the apartment.I don't know what Lu Zhengting is doing now?have you eaten yet?Or are you eating?What about Ke Yaru?Are you celebrating the New Year with him in the villa?
All the questions suddenly flooded towards her like this, she was a little irritable, she patted the quilt boredly, and muttered, "Look, look, it's really boring!"

In the past Chinese New Year, Lin Xujia would come to see Xia Yan after dinner, and then the two of them went to the church to watch the fireworks together. If Ye Yunchen came back from abroad or in China, they would be a threesome, but now?Everything has changed.

After thinking about it, Xia Yan was hesitating whether to call Lin Xujia or not. Ever since Lu's leak, Lin Xujia seemed to have evaporated in Jiangcheng. She didn't know if Lin Xujia hid by herself or if she was with Ye Yunchen.

"Hey..." Xia Yan sighed, and from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the phone's screen lighting up again.

******
Dongshan Villa.

Lu Zhengting and Xiao Han appeared in Jiang Mingxiu's line of sight. He glanced at Ke Yaru who was sitting next to you, Jiang Mingxiu, without any surprise in his eyes. Jiang Mingxiu had already notified that Keya would be here to celebrate the New Year this year.In the living room at this time, the atmosphere was a little weird. Xiaohan was wearing a small black padded jacket, and a thick and warm knitted scarf was tied around his neck. This scarf was given to him by Xia Yan a few days ago.

Xiaohan secretly glanced at Jiang Mingxiu, secretly pulled Lu Zhengting's finger, slightly raised her head to look at Lu Zhengting, then she didn't know what she thought of, she suddenly shook off Lu Zhengting's hand, and trotted to Jiang Mingxiu, "Grandma, little girl!" Han wishes you a happy new year."

Jiang Mingxiu pulled Xiao Han into her arms, finally showing a smile on her serious face, pampering Xiao Han's head, took out a prepared red envelope from her bag and handed it to Xiao Han, and immediately Without looking at Lu Zhengting, he took another copy and handed it to Keya Ru.

"Yaru, I gave this to my future daughter-in-law."

Hearing this, Keya Ru blushed, and glanced cautiously at Lu Zhengting's direction. Seeing his face suddenly turn ugly, Keyaru pursed her lips and said aggrievedly, "Auntie, this gift is too expensive, I still don't want it." Yes, and this should be for Xia Yan."

"Yaru, for the New Year's Eve, don't mention those spoilers and topics. Since I give it to you, it proves that you can afford it." Jiang Mingxiu said every word, ignoring Lu Zhengting's coldness With a sad face, as soon as the words fell, she took Keya Ru and Xiaohan's hand and went to the restaurant, leaving Lu Zhengting alone in the living room.

After dinner, Lu Zhengting left the dining table without saying a word, went back to his room, took a coat, and went downstairs with the key in his hand. Keya Ru was sitting in the living room watching the Spring Festival Gala with Jiang Mingxiu. Seeing this scene, he didn't know what he was thinking What, at Jiang Mingxiu's signal, he quickly got up and chased him out.

The cold wind whizzed past, and the cold light poured into the collar. The cold air would only make people shiver non-stop. Keya came out in a hurry, completely ignoring the weather outside. Wearing a thin shirt, he strode up to Lu Zhengting. Blocking his way, staring at him without blinking.

"Zhengting, where are you going for the Chinese New Year today?"

Lu Zhengting hummed, raised his eyes and looked at Keya Ru, "This is not something you should ask about."

"Well, Zhengting, I just think that since it's the Chinese New Year, my aunt will definitely not want you to leave now. There is no overnight feud between mother and child..."

"Finished?"

"Zhengting, I..." Keyaru's words were interrupted by Lu Zhengting. She blinked and felt his piercing gaze on her. She paused, thought for a moment, and added, "Can I ask you A question? Zhengting, do you hate me? That's why you don't want to see me? "

Hearing this, Lu Zhengting thought for a while, and finally picked it up and looked straight at Keya Ru, "En."

A word of kindness, Lu Zhengting didn't hesitate at all. After Keya heard the sound, her body seemed to lose support in an instant, and she took a step back. She didn't want to believe that the answer came from Lu Zhengting's mouth. She dragged into the corner of her clothes, bit Pursing her lips, she asked unwillingly, "Are you admitting that you don't want to see and hate me?"

As if she was afraid of hearing an answer she didn't want to hear from Lu Zhengting again, she quickly stopped her, "Why? Because of Xia Yan?"

This time, without waiting for Lu Zhengting's answer, Key Yaru suddenly said again, "You don't need to answer me, I don't think I really want to know the answer from you now. Are you going to find Xia Yan? You go, auntie I'll comfort you here."

As soon as the words fell, Lu Zhengting took a deep look at Keya Ru, turned around and got into the car without hesitation.

Watching Lu Zhengting turn around neatly, watching the black car disappear in front of her eyes in the dark night, Keyaru slowly raised her head and looked up at the sky, the tears still in her eyes slowly flowed out, she reached out and wiped them away. With the tear stains on her face, when she felt the temperature of the tears with her fingers, she only felt that she was in extreme anger and sadness.After a little cold wind, she returned to the villa.

At ninety o'clock, there were more people on the street than Xia Yan imagined. I remember that when she was in college, she and Lin Xujia were holding hands and were part of the crowd. They laughed and played while feeling the laughter around them. .In less than three hours, the whole city will usher in a New Year's Eve fireworks show.In fact, most of these are purchased by private individuals and then set off fireworks at designated places.

In Jiangcheng, churches are generally designated places where fireworks are set off.

Xia Yan walked to the church involuntarily, the place was already overcrowded, and the rhythm of the crowd, she was helplessly squeezed into it, with people at the front and back.After finally breaking through the crowd and getting out, she found a relatively clean place to stay.

There is a river next to the church. Xia Yan is standing by the railing. There are fewer people on this side, and more people here are putting Kongming lanterns. She doesn’t want to let it go, so she looks at others, and she sees that they are not far from her. There are a few young girls clustered together, with happy smiles on their faces, holding Kongming lanterns that have not been opened yet, and one of them is holding a pen in his hand.

She just judged from a few words that they must be discussing what kind of blessing words to write on the Kongming Lantern, maybe they hope that the friendship will last forever, maybe they want the people they love to be happy, or they hope that the people they love will love themselves.Love and friendship seem to be the form that runs through the youth. Everyone emphasizes ignorant love, and loves when they are ignorant.

Thinking of this, Xia Yan couldn't help but smile.In her impression, these things did not seem to exist in her youth, and she wondered if she had a fake youth.

Xia Yan shook her head, and suddenly remembered the strange mobile phone number she called before she came out.When she picked it up, the other party hung up without making a sound, and when she called back, the other party's phone was turned off.Looking at the calm river, she took out her mobile phone and suddenly thought that she hadn't given Lu Zhengting New Year's greetings yet, so she edited a message, read it again and again, and sent it after confirming that it was correct.

What came back was not a message, but a phone call.
