Zhan Xunche froze for a moment, then nodded, "Then I'll just wait and see."

Zhou Yejin dragged Zhan Xunche into his yard, turned around and ran back to the house alone. After a while, he ran out again with a firework in his arms.

When he saw the fireworks in Zhou Yejin's arms, Zhan Xunche had already guessed what he was going to do.

"Stay here, and hide away later." Zhou Yejin put the fireworks in the middle of the yard and pointed to a spot in the corner.

Zhan Xunche stood in the corner in response. He watched Zhou Yejin standing next to the fireworks, and pressed the lighter twice with trembling hands, but didn't press it.

Zhan Xunche bent his eyes and laughed, "Afraid?"

Zhou Yejin turned her head and glanced at him, "I'm afraid, I'm freezing."

Zhan Xunche smiled noncommittally and said nothing.

Zhou Yejin lowered her head and tossed the lighter again. After tossing for a long time, no sparks came out, "Is this lighter broken?"

Zhan Xunche walked up to him with big strides, snatched the lighter from his hand, and lit it with three clicks.

"..." Zhou Yejin looked at the jumping flames and was speechless for a long time.

"Don't let the lighter take the blame next time." Zhan Xunche stuffed the lighter into Zhou Yejin's hand, thought for a while, and added a word with a smile, "Good boy."

When Zhou Yejin heard the last word, she bared her teeth as if she was being stung, and quickly squatted down and put the lighter next to the fuse to light the fireworks.

Seeing a little spark on the fuse, Zhou Yejin quickly took Zhan Xunche's hand and ran to the corner of the yard, fearing that if he ran too slowly, he would be caught by the fireworks.

With the sharp sound of piercing the sky, beams of flames rushed to the sky, blooming colorful colors in the sky.

Zhan Xunche stood in the corner, watching the splendid fireworks, and waved to Zhou Yejin.

Zhou Yejin turned her head in confusion, "Do you have something to tell me?"

Zhan Xunche waved Zhou Yejin twice more, motioning him to move his head closer.

Zhou Yejin followed the instructions and slowly approached Zhan Xunche.

Zhan Xunche was shorter than Zhou Yejin, so he had to stand on tiptoe to get close to Zhou Yejin's face.

Zhan Xunche tiptoed close to Zhou Yejin, and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

This kiss was like a superficial kiss, before Zhou Yejin had time to react, he backed away by himself.

Zhou Yejin widened her eyes, stared at him for a while, then silently turned her gaze to the sky, "Let's watch the fireworks."

Zhan Xunche hummed, and turned his attention back to the fireworks.

The fireworks are almost fleeting, and the night sky quickly returns to silence after the splendor.

"It's over." Zhou Yejin looked up at the silent night sky.

Zhan Xunche turned his head to look at him, "Then go back to the house, it's cold outside."

"Let me go to your house for a while. They are all watching the Spring Festival Gala indoors. I don't like to watch it. It's boring." Zhou Yejin lowered her head and looked at Zhan Xunche.

"Okay, I'm alone anyway." Zhan Xunche grabbed Zhou Yejin's wrist and led him into Grandma Zhan's room.

When they walked in, Grandma Zhan and Zhan's father and Zhan's mother were watching a sketch on TV. Seeing them walking in together, Grandma Zhan was obviously taken aback.

"You...don't fight anymore?" Grandma Zhan asked hesitantly, when they lived together in their hometown last time, they still fought all day long, why are they becoming so close now.

"It's been a long time since we stopped fighting. The relationship between the two of them is better now than it was when Mo Yu and I were young." Mother Zhan turned to answer for the two of them.

Grandma Zhan laughed, "That's a good relationship. I used to worry that the two of you would fight from childhood to adulthood. I didn't expect that the relationship would improve so quickly."

Zhou Yejin scratched her head with a smile, "I was not sensible when I was young."

"Yes, they're all grown up." Grandma Zhan nodded.

Grandma Zhan chatted with Zhou Yejin one after another. After she asked all about Zhou Yejin, Grandma Zhan finally stopped asking.

Just as Zhou Yejin wanted to play with Zhan Xunche for a while, Zhou's father and mother next door came to him and told him to go back to sleep.

Zhou Yejin glanced at the time, and before he knew it, he had been at Grandma Zhan's house for more than two hours.

"Then I'm going to sleep. Happy New Year." Before leaving, Zhou Yejin waved to Zhan Xunche.

"Happy New Year." Zhan Xunche followed up and watched him leave with a wave.

Zhou Yejin lay down on the bed directly after returning to the room.

It's strange to say that he didn't do anything today, but he felt quite tired, and wanted to lie on the bed and take a nap when he got back to the house.

There was the sound of Grandma Zhou watching TV outside the house. Zhou Yejin breathed evenly when she heard this sound.

The music and vocals on the TV were like a filter, filtering out his dreams that night, leaving only pure sleep.

There is no need for an alarm clock in the countryside. When it is time to wake up, someone’s chicken will wake up the people in the village.

Zheng Xiang, who was still sleeping in the bed, was awakened by Zhou Yejin's crowing, which was so close to him, as if it was crowing next to his ear.

He opened his eyes hazily, focusing his eyes little by little, and when Zhou Yejin saw clearly what was in front of him, he was frightened sober in an instant.

"Damn it!" Zhou Yejin straightened up abruptly.

"Are you awake?" Zhan Xunche asked Zhou Yejin with a smile, holding a screaming chicken in his hand.

"How did you get in?" Zhou Yejin asked him in horror.

"I was outside to breathe. Aunt Zhou saw me and asked me to come in and sit." Zhan Xunche said with a smile.

"It's early in the morning, what kind of guest is she..." Zhou Yejin muttered while looking up at his watch, and when he saw the time clearly on the watch, he fell silent.

It turned out that it was almost ten o'clock now, and it was not early anyway.

"I saw you were still asleep, so I came in to call you." Zhan Xunche smiled and shook the screaming chicken in his hand.

Zhou Yejin looked at the toy chicken with lingering fear, "Where did that thing come from?"

"I left it at my grandmother's house when I came here," Zhan Xunche showed a row of neat teeth, "Are you satisfied with this wake-up service?"

"Satisfied ass, I was woken up abruptly by you." Zhou Yejin stared at him with wide eyes.

"Very good." Zhan Xunche nodded his head twice in satisfaction, "It proves that this method is quite effective."

"I'm sick." Zhou Yejin lay down again and put the quilt over her head again.

"Don't sleep, play badminton with me." Zhan Xunche pushed him twice.

"No." Zhou Yejin said firmly with her head covered.

Zhan Xunche reached out and pulled his quilt away, looked at Zhou Yejin's exposed head with a smile, and said half-threateningly. "Really not going?"

"What do you want?" Zhou Yejin couldn't help touching her earlobe, the tooth marks left by Zhan Xun Che the day before yesterday hadn't faded away.

"Bite you." Zhan Xunche replied.

Zhou Yejin suddenly lost her temper, "If you're hungry, go to the house to pick up leftovers, don't stare at me like fat all day long."

"Compared to fat meat, I still prefer to stare at you." Zhan Xunche looked at him without blinking.

Zhou Yejin frowned, and before he could say what he wanted to say, Zhan Xunche bent down and bit his earlobe, the same place he bit the day before yesterday.

Zhou Yejin gave Zhan Xunche a weak push. His ears were already sensitive, but now that he felt the warmth of the ear, he felt that his bones were almost covered with goosebumps.

"Can you change the place, it's itchy here." Zhou Yejin felt so uncomfortable that she wanted to hit the wall.

Zhan Xunche didn't speak, instead he bit harder, and then he simply ground his teeth twice on his earlobe, as if he wanted to use his teeth to pierce his ear.

Zhou Yejin hissed in pain, "Is it over yet?"

After he finished speaking, Zhan Xunche was finally willing to move his head away from his ear, and before leaving, he still blew on his ear.

"Damn it." Zhou Yejin scolded, shrinking her shoulders reflexively.

Zhou Yejin's ear was also traumatized a second time. The tooth marks from the day before yesterday hadn't disappeared yet, and a new tooth mark was added to the same ear.

Zhan Xunche looked at the new teeth marks, and laughed twice, "Badminton, do you want to go?"

Zhou Yejin lay on the bed with hemiplegia, and made an excuse casually, "I would like to go, but we didn't bring a racket or ball."

"I used to keep a pair at my grandma's house." Zhan Xunche replied with a smile.

"..." Zhou Yejin looked at him sideways, "Just tell me, how many things have you kept in your hometown?"

Zhan Xunche completely lifted his quilt, "There's nothing else."

"I don't want to go." Zhou Yejin watched the quilt leave him and struggled twice on the bed.

"It's time to do some exercise. Do you want to gain weight?" Zhan Xunche pointed to Zhou Yejin's belly.

Zhou Yejin looked down at her stomach. She didn't have much meat yet, but after this year, she couldn't guarantee it.

Zhou Yejin thought for a while, then stretched out his hand to Zhan Xunche with a wrinkled face, "Give me a hand."

Zhan Xunche dragged him up from the bed as he said, and smoothed out the messy hair on his forehead.

"Let's go." Zhou Yejin put on her clothes, and Zhan Xunche stepped out of the room first.
