Shang Shixu was depressed, "Boss, isn't that how the vegetables are peeled?"

"You're the one who peeled me off so hard." Hua Qingyao said amusedly.

"Let's peel the leeks." Hua Qingyao gave him a handful of leeks, "Let's see how I do it."

Thanks to the step-by-step instruction, business timing has never been wrong again.

Finally, at almost seven o'clock in the evening, a table of New Year's Eve dinner was ready.

Wen Ci couldn't help but sigh, "I'm finally fine. It's not easy."

Shang Shixu looked over and said with a gentle smile, "Wen Ci."

Wen Ci was so violent that his body collapsed and he hurriedly said, "Well, I can finally eat. I'm happy."

Several people happily had a delicious New Year's Eve dinner.

After saying goodbye, everyone went home.

As soon as Wen Ci got home, his cell phone suddenly rang. Who was calling him at this time?

Looking at the mobile phone number, Wen Ci frowned. He didn't recognize the person, "Who is it?"

"Wen Ci?" Wen Ci was startled by the unfamiliar voice, but he quickly responded, "Yes, who are you?"

"Wen Liu is your mother, right?" As soon as the words came out, Wen Ci frowned immediately. He hadn't heard this name for a long time, especially when the other person mentioned his mother, his tone was particularly bad.

"Yes." Wen Ci replied coldly.

After receiving the confirmation, the other end suddenly fell into silence.

Seeing the other party's silence, Wen Ci didn't speak.

After a long time, there was a voice from the other side, "I am Xu Wenbo."

Wen Ci curled her lips and sneered, having already guessed who the other party was, "Head of the Xu family, call me at this time. Could it be that you have found the whereabouts of the artifact?"

"No, I have another matter to discuss with you." Xu Wenbo said cryptically.

"What's the matter?" Wen Ci thought for a while, "Is it possible that the family master's son's matter hasn't been settled yet?"

As soon as Wen Ci spoke out, Xu Wenbo's voice paused.

The son of the head of the Xu family actually colluded with the underworld and took refuge in the underworld. In the end, with all the heavenly masters watching, the head of the Xu family could only reluctantly dispose of his son.

That is to say, the lineage of the head of the Xu family is considered unique.

This matter was handled to the satisfaction of the heavenly masters. The righteousness of killing relatives made the Xu family head's prestige even higher. Unfortunately, it was very uncomfortable for the head of the family.

Wen Ci's words now are undoubtedly adding salt to Xu Wenbo's wounds.

However, Xu Wenbo was not angry. Instead, he said, "You should know."

"I don't know." Wen Ci said with a smile, "Master Xu, if nothing happens, I will hang up. After all, it is New Year's Eve and the reunion time, so I won't disturb your family reunion, and you don't want to delay my sleep."

After Wen Ci finished speaking, Xu Wenbo felt a pain in his heart. He felt that Wen Ci wanted to hang up, and immediately said, "Wait a minute."

"Is there anything else?" Wen Ci asked nicely.

"There's something else..." Xu Wenbo said uncertainly.

"Say." Wen Ci said simply.

"It's just..." Xu Wenbo didn't know how to organize his words. Wen Ci seemed to have guessed what he wanted to say, which made him not know how to speak.

"Business?" Wen Ci spoke for the other party.

"It's business..." Xu Wenbo was about to say something.

But he was blocked by Wen Ci, "For business, our office has already gone on annual leave. If you have anything to do, call the office after the new year. There are people on duty in the office, and I don't answer the hotline here." Wen Ci said with a smile.

Wen Ci's words were cold and there was no warmth at all.

"No, it's not business, it's..." Before Xu Wenbo finished speaking, Wen Ci interrupted directly, "It's not business, I'm hanging up."

"Wait a minute." Xu Wenbo said urgently, "Private matters, I have a private matter with you."

"Private matters? Shouldn't we discuss it with the Xu family? I am an outsider, not an intimate citizen. You made the wrong call." After saying that, Wen Ci hung up the call without mercy.

Staring at the phone call that ruined his mood, Wen Ci's eyes were cold and he returned to the master bedroom and lay on the bed, not wanting to move.

The first day of the Lunar New Year is naturally a great day to visit relatives and pay New Year greetings.

No matter how late you stay up on New Year's Eve, you have to get up early on the first day of the new year. The streets and alleys start to get lively. People put on new clothes and carry gifts to visit relatives.

Every household is lively and lively, and occasionally naughty children set off small firecrackers, adding a bit of joy to the new year.

Hua Qingyao slept until noon. When he opened his eyes, he realized that he was still being held in someone's arms.

Looking at the tight chest in front of him, Hua Qingyao reached out and rubbed it, enduring the vibration in his chest, and heard a deep voice above his head, "Are you awake?"

"Yeah." Hua Qingyao snorted, too lazy to move.

"Lie down for a while, and I'll cook dumplings." Ye Chutang said and stood up.

Before he could stand up, he noticed that a corner of his pajamas was pinched. He lowered his head and saw Hua Qingyao with a tangled expression on his face, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Hua Qingyao said, letting go and slowly retracting his hand into the quilt.

Ye Chutang clearly felt that Hua Qingyao was not in a good mood, so he turned around and sat by the bed, "What's going on?"

"No, I just miss my parents." Hua Qingyao said dullly.

Ye Chutang was shocked and didn't know what to say. He just hugged Hua Qingyao and said, "My parents will be relieved to see that you are taken care of."

"They will be very happy that you have such a good husband like me." Ye Chutang continued.

Hua Qingyao looked at him speechlessly. The sadness he felt just now was gone, and he glanced at him, "Wang Po sells melons and boasts of herself."

Ye Chutang was not embarrassed at all and pressed his forehead against Hua Qingyao's forehead, "Why, am I bad?"

"Okay, very good." Hua Qingyao said with a helpless smile.

After saying that, he raised his leg and kicked Ye Chutang gently, "Go and cook the dumplings."

Hua Qingyao and Ye Chutang were happily eating dumplings here, while Wen Ci was watching TV at home.

There were a lot of snacks and beers piled aside.

The doorbell rang suddenly, and Wen Ci looked at the door strangely. Who else would come to see him on this first day of the Lunar New Year?

I didn't want to move, but unfortunately the doorbell kept ringing, persistently and persistently.

Wen Ci reluctantly got up and said, "Here we come, don't press the button."

The person outside the door obviously heard the noise and stopped.

Wen Ci impatiently walked over and opened the door, muttering, "Who is it? We don't let people have a good rest on New Year's Day, right?"

As soon as the door opened and saw the person at the door, Wen Ci's expression changed, and then he put on a ruffian smile, "Hey, the head of the Xu family, why are you here?"

"Let's talk." Xu Wenbo said.

Wen Ci smiled and turned sideways to let Xu Wenbo in. He was not interested in chatting at the door and letting his neighbors listen to gossip.

Wen Ci closed the door and asked, "Head of the Xu family, what's your important business here?"

"I found out that your mother is Wen Liu." Xu Wenbo sat on the sofa. The mess in the living room made him frown. The living environment was so bad.

"Yes, is there any problem?" Wen Ci naturally saw Xu Wenbo's disgusted expression.

"Do you know your life experience..." Before Xu Wenbo finished speaking, Wen Ci took over.

"I know, my mother met a scumbag back then and that's why she had me." Wen Ci said nonchalantly, "You also know that scumbags are really not human beings now, so I don't care anyway."

Xu Wenbo frowned, "I'm not a scumbag..."

"What's not a scumbag?" Wen Ci said amusedly, "It's just that a man is lonely, so he's looking for a woman?"

"You..." Xu Wenbo understood immediately after hearing this. Wen Ci knew everything.

"How can a man like this not be a scumbag? It's ridiculous." Wen Ci said without any reservations, "You think so, head of the Xu family."

Xu Wenbo looked at Wen Ci silently. Wen Ci picked up a bottle of beer and drank it by himself.

"You know everything." Xu Wenbo decided to talk openly, since the other party knew everything anyway.

"What do you know?" Wen Ci sneered at Xu Wenbo.
