This unruly lady smells like green tea

Chapter 212 Chapter 213 New Year's Wish
After clinking glasses, put the wine in your mouth and take a sip, the mellow sweetness of champagne permeates from your mouth.

"Xiao Xia, the new year is less than four hours away, what are your thoughts on the new year?" Shu Yi put down the goblet in his hand, looked up at Xia Ning who was sitting opposite, and asked suddenly .

"Finish all the things at hand." Without thinking about it, she replied immediately, and then asked, "What about you? Do you have any plans?"

"Just like you."

Speaking of this, Shu Yi smiled, his tone was indescribably relaxed and happy.

Xia Yunshen at the side couldn't help but frowned when he heard the words, and pretended to be upset and said, "Are you guys forgetting about me? Why don't you ask me what I think?"

"Your thoughts are not important." Xia Ning blurted out hurtful words.

"..."

"Ha ha……"

Shu Yi laughed loudly when he heard this sentence, as if he heard something interesting.

Xia Yunshen opened his mouth and was about to say something when the other party's voice came again.

"Brother, what's your New Year's resolution?" She swallowed the wine in her mouth and looked at Xia Yunshen with doubts in her eyes.

Hearing this, Xia Yunshen seemed a little surprised that his sister would ask such a question. He didn't react for a moment, but just blinked blankly.

"Yun Shen, what's wrong with you? Why don't you talk?" Shu Yi couldn't help asking curiously when he saw that no one spoke.

"Cough-cough-"

The person involved quickly came to his senses, cleared his throat, and acted as if he was going to speak on stage.

In the eyes of Xia Ning, who was a bystander, this move seemed a little exaggerated, and her face showed an undisguised expression of disgust: "If you don't say anything, just go away, and don't show your presence."

After being bombarded mercilessly by his sister, the expression on Xia Yunshen's face remained unchanged, as if he didn't take the words to heart.

I saw him seriously thinking for a moment, and then slowly said: "May my wishes come true."

Shu Yi: "..."

As soon as these words came out, the situation suddenly quieted down.

Xia Ning gave someone a blank look, and said angrily: "To make a wish, you have to go to the temple, and then repeat what you just said to the bastard in the wishing pool, maybe it will be useful."

In other words, it is impractical.

Hearing this, Xia Yunshen didn't seem to agree very much, but his expression was calm, making it impossible to guess what his real thoughts were at this moment.

"New Year's wish, do you care whether I am making a plan or making a wish?" Xia Yunshen paused, and then said, "The future is still in the future, and everything is possible, why can't I think about it?"

After finishing speaking, he added another sentence: "Constrained by the status quo, I can only say that your thinking is too narrow and out of touch with the times."

"..."

Xia Ning looked at Xia Yunshen at this time, as if he was looking at an idiot.

At this time, Shu Yi, who was watching the play, suddenly interjected: "To be a man, you have to be down-to-earth. When you're not asleep, it's better to have less unrealistic daydreams."

Xia Yunshen drank the rest of the wine in the goblet, then looked at his friend, his pretty brows frowned.

"Shu Yi, you've only been with Xia Ning for a while, why did you turn your back on your brother?" He paused, looking at the other party with an inquiring look in his eyes, "Now you're always fighting against this guy and me, honestly Tell me, do you have any secrets to hide?"

"you guess."

Shu Yi's answer was very simple, but the words made others think about it, as if there was really some relationship between them.

Xia Yunshen's brows furrowed even deeper, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by someone next to him.

"Please stop your weird imaginings, this godbrother was recognized by you, the sixth son." Xia Ning said angrily, looking at the other party like a sharp knife, as if he was going to kill him in the next moment. People were cut alive.

Hearing his sister's words with the meaning of hating iron and steel, Xia Yunshen's frowning brows slowly relaxed, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's fierce? Don't you just ask a question or two? As your own brother, don't I have the right to ask questions?"

As he spoke, he poured a glass of champagne into his goblet, and the clear, golden juice looked extra warm under the light.

He put it to his lips and took a sip, then his eyes fell on Xia Ning.

"Hey, let me ask you a question."

"If you have something to say, don't play with me like a mother-in-law going around in circles, lest I want to give you a hard time."

"Hey, can you speak more civilly? Who did you learn from when you talk bluntly?" Xia Yunshen raised his eyebrows, dissatisfied with Xia Ning's way of speaking.

"If you love to talk, don't talk, don't talk about falling down."

Xia Ning didn't care about Xia Yunshen's preaching at all. After saying this, he lowered his head and started eating.

Shu Yi listened to the bickering between the siblings, and laughed without saying a word.

This normal and happy scene in front of him is quite rare for Shu Yi.One is that he is an only child, and he has never had the experience of "brothers and brothers being respectful"; the other is that their family's situation is special, and their fathers are all unsmiling soldiers. Several times.

As a result, this seemingly commonplace "family warmth" picture is particularly strange.

In my impression, it seems that this is the first time for him to celebrate the New Year like this... Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a sour and complicated feeling in my heart.

"Try this."

Xia Ning noticed Shu Yi's strange mood, so he used the serving chopsticks to pick up a dish for Shu Yi.

Seeing that the braised pork on the plate didn't look very good, Shu Yi couldn't help being stunned for a moment, but then he came to his senses.He hooked the corners of his mouth, and there was a smile in his obsidian-like eyes.

"Thank you."

A short thank you, but the joy that cannot be concealed in the tone.

There are not many dishes on the table, there are only a dozen dishes in total, there are no particularly expensive and rare delicacies from mountains and seas, on the contrary, they are almost all home-cooked dishes that can be bought from the vegetable market, even worse than the usual meals many.

But because it is done by yourself, it can be regarded as a special taste.

Xia Ning shook his head, and corrected the other party's words.

"What are you being polite about? Just treat this place as your own home. We are all your family members. For those who celebrate Chinese New Year, be happy."

Xia Yunshen was originally dissatisfied with Xia Ning's behavior of picking up vegetables for Shu Yi but not for himself, but only after hearing her words did he notice this situation.

So, he thought about it, but for a moment he didn't know how to speak.

But at this time, Shu Yi's voice sounded again: "Okay, I will take your words seriously."

Xia Yunshen: "..."

There is nothing wrong with the words, but why does this kid's words sound weird?

"En." Xia Ning responded lightly, feeling nothing wrong with it.

Xia Yunshen, who couldn't get in the conversation, felt more and more strange the more he listened, but he couldn't tell the reason. His brother's attitude was really abnormal, but after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure it out. In the end, he simply gave up thinking and planned to think carefully when he had time in the future. ask.

In fact, they all have the habit of not talking when eating, so at the back, except for Xia Yunshen's broken-mouthed temper and occasionally talking a few words, most of the time they are quite quiet.

It only took more than half an hour to eat a New Year's Eve dinner.

After drinking and eating, a few servants came to clean up the dishes.

The three of them moved from the restaurant to the hall to play cards and games, and bursts of laughter echoed in the huge space.

After several hours, everyone's face had been pasted with a lot of notes, and Xia Yunshen's case was the worst. A face was covered with notes, only a pair of bright eyes were exposed, and it was sneaky at the moment. , a sly and smug look flashed across his eyes.

"Haha, Wang Zha! You lost!"

He flicked the cards in his hand on the table, and as he said that, he twisted the note and stuck it to Xia Ning, who had the least amount of stuff on his face.

He smiled meanly.

At this time, Housekeeper Lu came over and reminded softly: "Miss, the things you ordered have been arranged at the designated place."

Steward Lu's voice brought everyone's thoughts back to reality.

When Xia Yunshen heard this, a puzzled expression appeared on his face, while Shu Yi looked at Xia Ning with eyes full of doubts.

"What did you order? Did you make it so mysterious?" Xia Yunshen asked.

Hearing Steward Lu's reminder, Xia Ning nodded, indicating that he understood.

She didn't answer Xia Yunshen's question, but pulled away the chair, got up from her seat, and said lightly, "You will find out when you come with me."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Steward Lu again, and continued, "I'm very happy with your job. I'll give everyone a New Year's greetings red envelope. You can figure out the amount yourself. I'll reimburse you after you make a budget."

"Thank you ma'am."

Butler Lu seemed a little surprised when he heard the news, and immediately thanked him.

Xia Ning ignored him and turned to leave.

"..."

Shu Yi and Xia Yunshen looked at each other, looking at each other in blank dismay, with doubts in their eyes, but they still didn't press on, but followed each other's footsteps.

10 minute later.

They followed Xia Ning to the elevator to the roof of the villa.

Snow was still falling in the sky, and under the night and lights, it fell like a celestial girl scattering flowers.

Looking up at the sky, her exhaled breath formed a mist floating upwards, and a snowflake fell on the tip of her nose. The snow melted immediately when it met the warm skin, leaving only a icy and cool touch on the tip of her nose.

Suddenly, a dark mass was covered on the head.

I reached out and touched it, and it was a hat.

Xia Yunshen's deep voice sounded from the direction of the top of his head, inadvertently showing helplessness in his tone.

"You don't have much hair in the first place, and you don't even wear a hat when you come out. Your brain is not bright, and it will be really terrible if you are frozen stupid."

Originally, I felt heart-warming because of his actions, but this touching feeling disappeared at the moment when I said these words.

"Why did you open your mouth when you were alone? No one will treat you as dumb if you don't speak."

As he said that, Xia Ning slapped the paw on his head with a slap, but he didn't continue to say anything. Instead, he turned his head to look at Shu Yi who was at the side, and asked without beginning or end: "Shu Yi Major, I'm going to deal with some violations next, and I'll let Steward Lu pay the fine, so please turn a blind eye to the next thing~"

Shu Yi turned his head, just in time to meet the other party's gaze, and broke into her field of vision just like that.

His figure was reflected in those clear and clean eyes, and he could even clearly see his slightly absent-minded state at this moment.

Before asking what was the matter, the words blurted out without thinking about it: "Okay, I will listen to you, and I will do everything."

Xia Yunshen: "..."

Witnessing this situation with his own eyes, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching. Hearing what Xia Ning meant, didn't he just want to set off fireworks?Why is Shu Yi acting as if something big is about to happen?
"She just wants to set off fireworks, you don't have to be so nervous."

Seeing that Shu Yi's expression became serious, Xia Yunshen sighed softly, and explained to him.

"hiss--"

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a dull pain in his foot, and when he looked down, his sister was stepping on it.

Then someone's voice came faintly: "Old thief Xia, are you allergic to romance? Can't you hold it in your heart if you guess it?"

Xia Yunshen pulled his foot out, and retorted unconvinced: "Speak well if you have something to say, don't always touch your hands, and what's more, you didn't see Shu Yi's face thinking that you were going to do something illegal, Are you ready to handcuff you and send you to the police?"

Xia Ning turned his head, stared at the other party, and when the words came to his lips, Shu Yi's voice suddenly sounded,

"Xiao Xia won't do bad things, I'm very assured of that."

When Shu Yi said this, he said every word very firmly, and his tone was calm and indifferent. It was exactly as he himself said, and there was no trace of worry on his face.

"Then why are you so sullen?" Xia Yunshen asked back.

"you guess."

"..."

I guess your size, and Xia Ning, why don't you say that this guy is beating around the bush?
Xia Yunshen's eyelids twitched, and he kept telling himself not to be angry.

"Okay, don't be silly."

Xia Ning took a few steps outside, then turned around.

She took a deep breath, her eyes gradually softened, and the temperament of her whole body changed in an instant.

"when--"

The clock struck midnight.

"boom--"

At this moment, with a sharp sound, colorful fireworks broke through the sky and exploded in the dark night. At that moment, the night sky was as bright as day.

The fireworks are getting colder, and there is a faint smell of sulfur in the air.

"Happy New Year! In the new year, I hope everyone is safe and happy, and everything goes well."

Standing in the background of fiery trees and silver flowers, the girl is slender and bright, clearly close at hand, yet feels so far away, so beautiful that it is like a dream.

"Happy New Year!"

Shu Yi responded with a smile, his heart and eyes were full of the person in front of him.The glistening sky, at this time, can't match the special scenery in the eyes of the young man.

Xia Yunshen hadn't regained his composure yet, he didn't feel joy, instead, he was inexplicably confused and melancholy, and an unexplained sadness hit his heart.

There is a faint smell of sulfur in the air, and the roar of fireworks exploding is still echoing in my ears.

All are reminders that the old year has officially become a thing of the past.

……

the other side.

Luoxue Mountain Villa.

The young man stood in front of the French window of the balcony, looking at the long night, with the rustling sound of snowflakes mixed with the wind in his ears.

midnight.

The ethereal voice of the girl sounded from the direction behind her.

"Happy New Year!"

Cheng Feichen ignored it, his eyes fell on the long night, cold and deep.

Not long after, Rio's voice came.

"Carr, I heard that today is the New Year in country Z, I wish you a happy new year."

After waiting for a long time, there was still no response.

Rio walked to Cheng Feichen's side, looked at him with doubts and inquiries: "When you came back, you were in a good mood? What happened now?"

Cheng Feichen's strange performance today appeared in his mind, and the doubt in his eyes was even worse.

"I told you, destroy things."

When Cheng Feichen said this, his tone was cold, without any emotion.

Rio was stunned for a word without beginning or end, and then he realized that a hint of guilt flashed in his eyes.

But he was unreasonable and strong, and just about to say something to refute, Cheng Feichen's voice sounded again.

"There are some things I don't want to say a third time."

The cold and indifferent tone completely wiped out the last bit of luck left in Rio's heart.

"All right, all right, I understand." He had no choice but to respond helplessly, and first expressed his position. After all, judging from his friendship with Cheng Feichen over the years, although his friend seemed indifferent to everything, in fact But a very paranoid person.

Although it took a lot of effort to make a "virtual idol", since the other party is not satisfied, we can only temporarily put this matter on the other side.

He didn't want to upset Carr with this.

Hearing Rio's promise, Cheng Feichen didn't say anything else.

Looking up at the people beside him, Rio pursed his lips tightly, and his mood became very complicated.After a long time, he sighed secretly in his heart, didn't say anything, but turned and left.

How sad the situation must be for people like them.
