Zhou Jida stayed quietly in the old house, while the capital was full of social activities. As soon as Mr. Zhou came to the capital, Xie Jing followed Zhou Jiyun back to Bishui Jiayuan.

Then, Xie Jing successfully slept until the afternoon on the fourth day of the Chinese New Year. One reason was that she was really sleep deprived recently, and the other was that Zhou Jiyun was too crazy.

"What time is it?" The room was dark, and Xie Jing didn't know what time it was. As soon as she asked, Xie Jing couldn't help but frown.

"It's two o'clock in the afternoon," just as Xie Jing was frowning, Zhou Jiyun lifted her up by her upper body, and then handed her a cup of hot water with a straw in it.

After drinking half a glass of water from Zhou Jiyun's hand, Xie Jing took a breath and asked, "Did my parents call?"

Zhou Jiyun said cheerfully, "No, they probably knew that it was a rare opportunity for us to spend some time alone together, so my parents were very open-minded and didn't come to disturb us."

Xie Jing couldn't stand to hear the term "two-person world" now. She supported herself on the mattress with both hands and tried to sit up straight, but what Xie Jing didn't expect was that she couldn't support herself up at all. Her arms were so soft that she couldn't use any strength at all.

Zhou Jiyun hurriedly put his arm around her waist: "What are you going to do? I'll help you?"

Xie Jing didn’t even have the energy to get angry now: “Go to the bathroom.”

"Okay, I'll carry you over." Zhou Jiyun lifted the quilt and carried Xie Jing sideways to the bathroom. After Xie Jing finished washing up with difficulty, he carried her out.

"I'm not going to the bedroom," Xie Jing shook her calves. She was scared at the sight of a big bed, so how could she be willing to stay in the bedroom?

Zhou Jiyun laughed softly twice: "Okay, let's go to the living room?"

Thinking of what happened on the sofa in the living room last night, Xie Jing's eyes wandered. She pursed her lips and said nothing. Zhou Jiyun found it interesting and teased her deliberately: "Then let's go to the study?"

Xie Jing finally glared at him: "You're still bringing it up?"

"Okay, let's not talk about it." Zhou Jiyun stroked her hair and said, "Then let's go to the restaurant. I don't know when you will wake up. I made seafood porridge, which is still warm now."

Xie Jing looked at him: "Have you had lunch?"

"No," Zhou Jiyun placed her on a chair in the restaurant, "It's boring to eat alone."

"Then come eat with me," Xie Jing pulled his sleeve, "You don't have to wait for me all the time in the future. Eat first if you're hungry."

"That won't work," Zhou Jiyun said seriously, "You missed brunch because of me. If I eat first, I'll always feel guilty."

Xie Jing was helpless: "Then you should restrain yourself a little..."

"I can't control myself," Zhou Jiyun touched her hair, "I have pretty good self-control, but when I see you, I can't control myself at all."

Thank God, what can she do? The vicious dog she raised has to live a lifetime no matter what.

The two of them had a late lunch. After lunch, neither of them went out. They just stayed on the chaise longue in the living room, reading books and occasionally whispering a few words. Xie Jing felt sleepy again unconsciously.

When she was about to fall asleep, Yun Lan called her via video: "Your great uncle is back. Let's have dinner together tonight? I have contacted your grandfather."

Zhou Jiyun looked at the dozing Xie Jing and lowered his voice: "Okay, what time? Still the same hotel as yesterday?"

"About 6:30," Yun Lan looked at the video on the other side: "Where's Jingjing? Still catching up on sleep?"

"No, I just woke up." Xie Jing patted her cheeks to make herself a little more alert: "When did my uncle come back?"

Yun Lan quickly glanced at Xie Jing's face and said, "Just half an hour ago. He came back this time for your family reunion banquet and for the engagement banquet of A Zhao and A Li tomorrow. He will be back to the army in two days, so he is in a hurry."

"Jiyun's grandfather is coming over, so as the younger generation, we naturally have to go and visit him. I heard that A-Li's family is also here today, so let's get together tonight."

Xie Jing felt a headache just thinking about it: "How many people would that require?"

Yun Lan smiled and said, "No matter how many people there are, you don't need to entertain them. We are here for you."

Xie Jing yawned: "Okay, thank you, Dad."

Seeing Xie Jing in such a difficult situation, Yun Lan couldn't hide his heartache: "It's because you just came home, so a family reunion banquet is essential. Plus, it's the Chinese New Year, so there are a lot of relatives visiting, and they're all at the same time."

"After the family recognition party tomorrow, you can have a good rest. You just need to come to the engagement party of Zhao and Li."

Xie Jing thought about it and said, "Yes, let's just get through today and tomorrow. The day after tomorrow will be Brother Zhao and A Li's home court, and we can finally take a breath."

Zhou Jiyun kneaded her fingers and said, "Then shall we set off at five o'clock?"

"It's OK," Yun Lan nodded: "You guys continue to catch up on your sleep, I have a lot of things to do."

After the call with Yun Lan ended, Xie Jing plopped down in Zhou Jiyun's arms again. Zhou Jiyun pulled her closer to him and said, "You've worked hard these past few days. You have dark circles under your eyes."

Xie Jing tapped his eye bags and said, "You work harder than me. I slept for a few hours on the morning of the first day of the new year, but you seem to be busy all the time. You are the one who is really working hard, entertaining friends."

Zhou Jiyun narrowed his eyes and smiled, then bit Xie Jing's index finger gently: "You feel so sorry for me? Then when I come back tonight..."

"Not today," Xie Jing tapped Zhou Jiyun's lips, "I feel sore all over now, I can't even lift it up."

"Okay, I'll let you go tonight." Zhou Jiyun was very easy to talk to. He certainly knew the principle of slow and steady. Besides, today was the fourth day of the Chinese New Year, and they would definitely stay at Bishui Jiayuan tomorrow night.

They must stay in the compound on the sixth night of the New Year, after all, Xie Jing will go back to S City with him on the seventh, and she will spend more time with her family. But Zhou Jiyun is not in a hurry, because after returning to S City, Xie Jing's time will be his.

Stretching in Zhou Jiyun's arms, Xie Jing touched the soft flesh on her waist and said, "It feels like since the second year of junior high school, there have been banquets almost every day. I feel like I've gained weight."

Zhou Jiyun also touched it, and Xie Jing shrank back because of the itch: "Don't touch it, it's itchy."

Zhou Jiyun did not stop, and his big hands with slightly calloused skin brushed over Xie Jing's waist and lower abdomen, making Xie Jing so itchy that she laughed in his arms with her hair messy and even two tears in the corners of her eyes.

It looks so vivid and lively.

Zhou Jiyun leaned over and kissed away the two tears: "I won't tease you anymore, are you still sleepy now?"

"Much better. The more I sleep, the weaker I feel." Xie Jing turned over and said, "I have to control myself when I get home. I've gained almost five kilograms."

"I like it very much. You were too thin before." Zhou Jiyun tucked the blanket into Xie Jing's hands. "When you return to S City, it won't be as lively as it is now. Will you be uncomfortable with it?"

"After the noise fades away, there will naturally be endless silence. What I like most is silence." Xie Jing held his hand: "As long as you are by my side, it is enough."
