The New Year is approaching, and the streets and alleys are bustling with lights and colorful decorations.

Lan Yan sat in the car and looked at the cheerful lanterns on the roadside and the colored lights hanging on the trees.

Xiao Si said: "Ms. Liang asked me to take you home tonight. Do you still want to go back to Yuefu Villa to get your things?"

Lan Yan: "Well, let's go back."

This year is the most special year for her.

In the past, she spent time with Bai Yang and others.

Yuefu Villa.

Lan Yan went back to the room to get her things, and Xiao Si stopped by the main building.

The first thing Jiang Yan said when she saw him was: "Why are you here again?"

Xiao Si sat down generously and said, "Let's see how far your plan for a second child has progressed."

They all knew that Jiang Yan and Su He were preparing for a second child.

Jiang Yan laughed and said, "Don't worry, it will definitely come earlier than your first child. Maybe my girl will be able to walk by then, and Lan Yan hasn't turned you into a regular child yet."

Xiao Si looked at him and clicked his tongue: "How do you know it's a daughter before you even see the shadow? Your conclusion is too early. Maybe it's a son?"

The man's deep black eyes looked at him calmly and said, "Do you want to bet?"

As soon as Xiao Si heard the word "gambling", he remembered what happened with Lu Zhiyang.

He lost tens of millions at that time.

So, this time, he was more cautious.

"You're not digging a hole for me, are you? Are you trying to steal my money again?"

He looked at him warily.

Jiang Yan said: "Don't make excuses for why you can't afford to lose."

Xiao Si: "..."

"If you can afford to lose, then give me back the previous ten million."

"I won based on my ability, why should I give it back to you?"

"Then I won't bet with you. Let me tell you, the method of provoking generals is useless to me."

This time, he learned to be smart and not to be too confident.

Especially in front of the man in front of you, you must avoid anything related to "gambling".

In his impression, Jiang Yan, a sinister man, never lost when they were betting.

Jiang Yan didn't force him to bet with him, he just said it casually.

However, he still complained: "Coward."

Xiao Si didn't care what he said.

"It's better to be a coward than to lose money."

At this time, Su Baobao came down from upstairs.

He just heard this sentence.

"Uncle Xiao, have you lost money again?"

Xiao Si looked at the little guy and said, "Why, do you really want me to lose money?"

Su Baobei ran to Jiang Yan, looked at him with big round eyes, and said with a smile: "Then it depends on who Uncle Xiao loses the money to."

Xiao Si raised his eyebrows and said, "How do you say that?"

Su Baobei said: "If you lose to my father, I definitely hope that you lose, Uncle Xiao."

Xiao Si sneered, "As expected of father and son, they are both equally evil."

Jiang Yan raised his hand and rubbed Su Baobao's head.

Su Baobei's height has increased dramatically recently, and she has already grown to over [-] meters before she even entered elementary school.

"Uncle Xiao, when will you marry Aunt Yan?"

"You little brat, why do you like worrying about adults' things so much?"

"I'm worried that Uncle Xiao is too lonely. After all, my father's other good brothers are all famous and have their own wives. As for Uncle Xiao, you are still not sure. What if one day Aunt Yan doesn't want you, Uncle Xiao?"

Su Baobei said seriously, "After all, Aunt Yan is good-looking and an excellent person, so she has many choices."

Xiao Si: "...What do you usually learn in kindergarten? How come you, a young child, know so much?"

"Is this how you and Su He usually teach him at home?"

He looked at Jiang Yan, raised his eyebrows and asked.

Jiang Yan said unhurriedly: "This is called smart. Even a child can see it, so don't bother here. After all, Lan Yan's life experience is different now. There is Wei behind her. The family members are supporting him, but Wei Ting won't say anything, not to mention Wei Junyao. Moreover, it will be a matter of time for Lan Yan to return to the Wei family. Wei Ting has no children of his own, and Lan Yan is the only one he has blood relations with in this world. Daughter, Wei Ting will definitely try his best to give her the best compensation. Therefore, you are definitely not Wei Ting's first choice for son-in-law."

Jiang Yan knew everything about Lan Yan.

"..."

If Xiao Si didn't understand Lan Yan, he would really believe Jiang Yan's lies.

"Stop scaremongering me here. I understand my little Yanyan. She only has me in her heart."

Jiang Yan smiled and said, "I hope you can still be so optimistic by then."

Xiao Si: "..."

Although he told Jiang Yan that he didn't care, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he left.

Although he didn't say anything in the car, Lan Yan still noticed something was wrong with his mood.

"What's wrong with you?" She turned her head and looked at him and asked, "Why do I feel weird?"

Usually as soon as he gets in the car, he will talk non-stop.

But today, it was unusually calm.

Just as Xiao Si was about to speak, Lan Yan added again: "Don't tell me it's okay."

Therefore, before Xiao Si could say these two words, they were strangled in his throat.

"It's nothing, I just feel a little depressed."

"Why are you in a bad mood? What happened?"

And wasn't it good just now? Why did you suddenly feel depressed?

Xiao Si was silent for a few seconds and then said, "What if I am not the best son-in-law in your father's mind?"

Lan Yan didn't realize for a moment who the "dad" he was referring to was.

She was quiet for a moment, then reached out to touch his forehead.

"You don't have a fever, so what nonsense are you talking about?" Lan Yan frowned slightly, "What does this have to do with him? He is him, I am me, my business does not need anyone to interfere."

Her underlying meaning is: you don't have to worry about these things at all.

Because of her words, the depressed haze in Xiao Si's heart gradually dissipated.

He said, "Oh, then I'm fine."

Lan Yan looked at him doubtfully, "Why did you ask this question all of a sudden? Did someone tell you something?"

Xiao Si said: "No one, I just suddenly thought of it myself. I know you are not interested in the Wei family, but you are indeed Wei Ting's only daughter, and he will not let you be alone outside. If one day He knows the truth and wants to recognize you, what is your choice?"

Xiao Si looked back at her.

"Actually, you don't need to feel any psychological pressure. To be honest, he hasn't done anything to hurt you. Moreover, he has never known your existence, so you can choose whatever you want without considering other factors. "

Lan Yan fell into silence. In fact, she had never thought about what he said.

"I don't know either, but these things will not affect the relationship between the two of us."

"I know, I trust you."

He had always believed in her, but maybe he cared too much and was somewhat afraid of losing her.

……

In a blink of an eye, it’s New Year’s Eve.

The Xiao family's old residence is so lively every year.

This was the first time for Lan Yan to experience this kind of atmosphere. The yard was filled with the laughter of children.

She was chatting with Mrs. Xiao at the moment.

The old lady liked her very much. As soon as she came, she drew people to her side.

"Yanyan, Xiaosi hasn't bullied you lately, has he?"

The old lady held her hand, looked at her kindly, and asked.

Lan Yan shook her head obediently, "Grandma, no, he has always been very good to me. Apart from being too talkative sometimes, he doesn't have any shortcomings."

The old lady smiled and said, "This kid has been a talker since he was a child. It's normal for him to talk a lot. If you don't want to listen to him, just tell him to shut up. You can also hit him. He's thick-skinned anyway."

The old lady talked very funny, and she also told her a lot about Xiao Si's childhood.

Although Mother Xiao had mentioned it to her before, Mother Xiao and the old lady said it differently.

"When this kid was a kid, he even had a quarrel with your grandfather's parrot because of his bad mouth."

After hearing this, Lan Yan couldn't help but laughed.

It seemed that Xiao Si was capable of quarreling with a parrot.

"Grandma, don't tell her all the embarrassing things about me. Be careful, this granddaughter-in-law will run away soon."

Xiao Si came over and said this.

The old lady gave him a chop and said disapprovingly: "If you run away, then I will take Yanyan as my granddaughter."

Xiao Si said with a speechless face: "How come you are always like my mother? You always say things like this. One wants to recognize her as her daughter, and the other wants to recognize her as her granddaughter."

The old lady raised her hand and slapped his butt, "I'm telling you, if Yanyan doesn't want you anymore, it's definitely not because of the embarrassing things I said, it's definitely because of what you did to feel sorry for her. You yourself My daughter-in-law, if you can’t protect yourself, then you can’t blame anyone else.”

Xiao Si frowned slightly: "Grandma, how old am I and you still spank me?"

The old lady snorted, "No matter how old you are, you are still a child in my eyes."

Xiao Si did not continue to argue with the old lady, "Okay, okay, I am a child. Grandma, can you give me back? You have taken up most of her time."

"Here you go, look at how stingy you are."

The old lady quickly handed Lan Yan's hand to his.

Xiao Si held Lan Yan's hand and pulled him up, "Grandma, you have many people with you, but I am the only one named Xiao Yanyan."

The old lady waved her hand towards him, "Hurry up and don't get in my way here."

Both of them knew that the old lady was joking with them.

"Grandma, I'll come with you later." Lan Yan said.

"Good kids, go ahead and remember to come back later for the New Year's Eve dinner."

Then, Xiao Si took her and left.

After the two left the courtyard, Lan Yan asked, "Where are you taking me?"

Xiao Sizhi took her to the garage, "You'll know in a minute."

He opened the passenger door and let her get in.

Lan Yan also cooperated with him obediently.

After he got in the car, she said again: "Wouldn't it be better if you go out now and miss the New Year's Eve dinner later?"

After all, this was her first time coming to the Xiao family's old house for New Year's Eve dinner, so she couldn't be absent from the beginning, right?

He said casually: "Don't worry, there is enough time, I can make it back in time."

Seeing that he had said so, she stopped talking.

Soon, the car drove out of the Xiao family's old residence.

After Xiao Si left, someone notified Xiao's mother and others.

"Are you all ready? They will be here in a moment."

Mother Xiao looked at everyone and asked.

Xiao Lanxin said: "Second sister-in-law, don't worry, everything is ready. This brat wants to do such a big thing, and he doesn't tell him in advance. Fortunately, our family is not short of money or people, otherwise who would be the bigger one?" Why bother with him on New Year's Eve?"

On the other side, Lan Yan watched the car drive out of the Xiao family's old house, and instead of driving down the mountain, it drove up the mountain.

Maybe because of her experience, she is more sensitive to some things.

She turned to look at him and asked doubtfully: "You are so mysterious, have you prepared any surprises?"

Xiao Si said without changing his expression: "There are no surprises. I just want to take you up to see the night view. You can see the night view of half of Guangdong City from above."

Lan Yan looked at him doubtfully, "Are you sure you didn't lie to me?"

"When have I ever lied to you?" he said.

When Lan Yan heard this, he didn't know what to say.

I feel like if I keep asking, he won't reveal anything.

After about twenty minutes, the car stopped.

It was pitch black all around, except for a two-story building not far away that had lights on.

"There is actually a house here?" she asked casually.

This really surprised her. She didn't expect that there were people living on the top of the mountain.

"Will we disturb others if we come here?"

Someone lives here, which means that this place may belong to someone else, so you shouldn't be able to just come up here, right?

Xiao Si took the lead in unbuckling his seat belt and looked back at her, "Get out of the car."

After saying that, he got out of the car first.

Lan Yan: "..."

He really cared about his words tonight.

Later, Lan Yan unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car.

As soon as she got out of the car, a gust of cold wind blew in her face.

She subconsciously gathered her coat.

However, the next second, she fell into a warm embrace.

The man opened his coat and wrapped her in his coat.

He hugged her and walked towards the small villa with lights on in front.

"Where are you going? Do you know them?" Lan Yan asked again.

The man still said calmly: "You will know when you go."

Under the moonlight, she looked up at his side face, "Why do I think you are acting weird tonight?"

The man lowered his eyes and looked at her, "What's wrong?"

Lan Yan: "She talks in a secretive way, and she also feels absent-minded."

"Have it?"

"What do you say?"

The two of them walked forward without saying a word.

Walking to the small building, Xiao Si opened the door naturally.

What comes into view is a small yard, and the yard is full of pink balloons.

Lan Yan squinted her eyes slightly, and the more she looked, the more she felt something was wrong.

But Xiao Si still held her in his arms as if nothing had happened and continued walking along the small stone path in the yard.

"No, Xiao Si, what on earth are you doing?"

As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes suddenly lit up, and then she saw a group of people suddenly rushing out from the side.

Immediately afterwards, there was a "bang bang" salute.

Lan Yan was stunned when she looked at the familiar faces in front of her.

Su He and others, as well as Xiao's mother and others, were all there.

This……

Just when she looked surprised, the man who was holding her suddenly let go of her.

She watched in a daze as he stood in front of her, then knelt down on one knee in front of her.

His move could be said to be caught off guard. Although she had guessed it before, she had never thought about it before.

"you……"

Before she could say anything, he interrupted her: "Lan Yan, I do have a surprise for you, but I'm not sure if it's a surprise for you. I thought clearly before I decided to do this. It’s just a matter of time. I know it’s sudden for you, and you may not be ready for it yet. But for me, you are already the person I want to love for the rest of my life, and you are the only person I want to love. The person you want to marry.”

After Xiao Si finished speaking, he stared at her intently and asked cautiously: "So, Lan Yan, are you willing to marry me? Give me a chance to participate in your life, okay?"
