"Come on, come on, cheers." Jiang Youan took the lead in raising the paper cup.
Others also made the same move one after another.
Jiang Youan said: "Happy Spring Festival."
"Happy Chinese New Year.", everyone said one after another.
At this moment, Jiang Nan felt a little strange in her heart, as if she was no longer alone, and there were many people accompanying her.
During the years when she lived alone in Nanlin, she spent many Spring Festivals alone.
There was no delicious food on the table like now, only two dishes and one soup for herself in the rental house.
Sometimes it's funny to say that she obviously has a father and a mother, so why do she live like an orphan?
Zhou Zhengan glanced at Jiang Nan inadvertently. Her face had no expression, but her eyes were brighter, and she seemed to be in a much better mood.
He couldn't help but slightly curled his lips, so lightly that no one noticed.
Jiang Nan picked up a skewer of mutton and took a bite. It was a bit salty, and she couldn't help frowning, but she didn't say anything. She just picked up the cup and took a sip. She forgot that the cup was filled with wine and took a big sip.
It's even more uncomfortable now, the salty taste is mixed with bitterness and spicy taste.
At this time, Su Jinyue made a sound of disgust: "Hey, it's so salty."
"..."
The night sky slowly brightened up, with more stars dotting the sky, and several floor lamps lit up on the lawn.
Shen Qingfeng brought a large box of fireworks from nowhere and greeted a few people: "Have fun, there are restrictions in the city, but there are no restrictions here."
Jiang Ningyuan walked over to pick and choose, and finally took out a cannon. He turned around and handed it to Su Jinyue behind him. Su Jinyue crossed her hands with a look of disgust. She didn't want it and didn't reach out to take it.
She wanted to play with the fairy wand.
But Jiang Ning was far from what she wanted. He forcefully stuffed the cannon into her hand and said, "You can play with this." Then he ignored Su Jinyue's reluctance and forcefully hugged Su. Jinyue walked aside.
Jiang Nan was still chewing with beef stuffed in her mouth, which made her mouth swollen. If she had known she would not eat the beef skewers, she could not chew it at all, and her teeth were sore.
She stood at the end of the crowd.
After a while, Zhou Zhengan brought something over and saw that she was still chewing hard. He couldn't help but frowned: "You won't throw it away?"
Only Jiang Nan could stupidly eat everything Jiang Youan baked.
Jiang Nan finally seemed to give in, then turned around and ran to the trash can to vomit.
When she came back slowly, Zhou Zhengan handed her the fairy wand in his hand.
Jiang Nan held the fairy stick, and Zhou Zheng'an took out the lighter he took from Jiang Ningyuan. The next moment, he held Jiang Nan's hand, and his hand wrapped Jiang Nan's hand. Jiang Nan was stunned, and Zhou Zheng'an pulled it. He took her hand and led him forward.
With a careful expression, he lit the fairy wand in her hand, and the fireworks like stars gradually expanded.
"Hold it tight." Zhou Zheng'an said, and then released his hold on her hand.
Jiang Nan looked at the fluorescent yellow firework in her hand, getting closer to her palm little by little, and went out when she was about to touch it.
She still had some unfinished thoughts and looked at Zhou Zhengan.
Zhou Zhengan raised his eyebrows: "Are you still playing with this?"
Jiang Nan nodded.
Zhou Zhengan curled his lips, turned around and went to get her the fairy wand again.
Jiang Nan doesn't play anything else, just this one. He holds a lot of fairy sticks in his hand and plays with them one after another, somewhat tirelessly.
Zhou Zhengan didn't seem to be interested in any of this. After standing for a while, he walked to a chair and sat down. After a while, Jiang Ningyuan also came over, pulled out the chair next to him and sat down.
Su Jinyue went to play with Gu Shengwei and disliked him.
Zhou Zhengan glanced at him lightly, poured a glass of wine into his own glass, and took a sip.
The two of them were just working together, neither paying attention to the other, each doing his or her own thing.
Zhou Zhengan's eyes would occasionally look at Jiang Nan, who was directly in front of him, and when he saw that she was having fun, he looked away.
"No, Zhou Zhengan, you've seen it twice in five minutes. Are you so worried?" Jiang Ningyuan was bored and just looking for some fun.
"Hey, you don't really like this girl, do you?" Jiang Ningyuan approached him curiously. In fact, he didn't expect to get Zhou Zheng'an's answer, because this person is a boring person. He just said it casually.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Zhengan's eyes deepened, and after being silent for a while, he said: "I have been thinking about this issue recently." His eyes seemed to be looking far away.
Jiang Ningyuan raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Then what if you really like me?"
Zhou Zheng'an: "What should I do? She and I are husband and wife, and it's not a taboo relationship."
Zhou Zheng'an has a very slow temper, and it took him a long time to react to the fact that he fell in love with Jiang Nan before he finally realized that his love would definitely not be dramatic.
It's probably more like porridge simmered over a slow fire, getting warmer little by little.
"Then I advise you to be more obvious. I'm a little distracted by this girl."
Zhou Zhengan frowned, with uncertainty: "Do you think she likes me?"
Jiang Ningyuan shook his head: "I don't know about this, I just feel something is wrong."
Zhou Zhengan glanced at Jiang Nan in the distance. She was wearing a thick down jacket. From the back, she looked like a little penguin, but a little penguin without a group.
Such a solitary existence is the first to freeze to death in winter.
Why did he suddenly think of this?
Loneliness, yes, loneliness.
The first time he met Jiang Nan, the girl exuded an energy all over her body. It was the kind of lonely and fearful energy that made people want to explore her.
...
Everyone was having fun when suddenly there was a loud noise in the sky, and fireworks bloomed in the night sky. Colorful lights lit up the entire night sky and shone on everyone's face.
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but look towards the sky.
Jiang Nan was stunned. She looked at the sky without moving, and the last fairy stick in her hand burned out.
On such a gorgeous night, Jiang Nan made her second wish.
She made a devout wish to God. If possible, she also wanted to be loved.
Tonight is New Year's Eve, God will be more forgiving, right?
Jiang Nan thought to himself.
At some point, Zhou Zhengan came to her side.
Jiang Nan lowered his head and couldn't help but look into his eyes.
Zhou Zhengan's eyes were as deep as a pool of clear water. He looked at her and told her to forget to move.
At this moment, Jiang Ningyuan, who was not far away, said to Su Jinyue: "Happy Spring Festival." The sound was mixed with the firecrackers and reached their ears.
Zhou Zhengan said: "Happy Spring Festival."
"Happy Spring Festival." Jiang Nan replied.
Their smiles reflected each other's eyes.
Zhou Zhengan bent down a little closer to her, looked at her in a low voice and said, "Do you know what a couple would do on a day like this?"
Jiang Nan was a little confused: "What?", she asked stupidly.
Zhou Zhengan lowered his head and kissed her gently.
It was completely different from the passionate kiss on the bed that night and the lingering kiss they had on the deserted street. This kiss was very light and shallow, and even the remaining warmth on the lips was very weak.
Zhou Zhengan looked at Jiang Nan, who was stunned, and said with a smile: "Do you understand?"
Jiang Nan's eyes slowly became a little unbelievable.
"Are you drunk again?" she asked uncertainly.
She had just seen Zhou Zhengan and Jiang Ningyuan sitting there, each of them drinking a lot.
"No, How about you?"
Jiang Nan shook her head. She hoped that she was drunk and would not be standing here soberly now. Looking at Zhou Zhengan in front of her, she was confused and thinking about the purpose of his actions just now.
Another grand fireworks bloomed in the sky, and people's eyes were involuntarily attracted. Zhou Zhengan raised his eyes and looked towards the sky, and Jiang Nan saw the faint smile on his lips.
Jiang Nan blinked lightly, took a deep breath, and looked at the sky.
...
Before going back, Jiang Nan picked up the unfinished wine on the table and drank it all in one gulp. It was obviously just ordinary beer, but it was so spicy that she couldn't open her eyes.
Jiang Nan just felt a little thirsty.
At night, so quiet.
Jiang Nan woke up from the night inexplicably.
Her brain suddenly became extraordinarily awake, and she lost all sleepiness. I wonder if it was because of the alcohol she drank at night. At this moment, her face was still a little hot, and she knew it was very red without even thinking about it.
Somewhat uncomfortable.
Jiang Nan sat up, originally wanting to use the remote control on the bed cabinet to lower the temperature.
As soon as I got up, I first saw the light squeezed in through the crack in the door.
Jiang Nan was stunned, thinking that she forgot to turn off the lights when she came back to rest at night. She picked up the clothes hanging by the bed and put them on, got out of bed and walked outside.
Jiang Nan opened the door to the room, and the light from outside came in instantly. She couldn't help but lower her head, her eyes not used to the sudden bright light.
"Did I wake you up?" Zhou Zhengan's voice came.
He turned around after hearing the door open, and happened to see Jiang Nan walking out of the house.
Jiang Nan was a little stunned. She raised her head and met Zhou Zhengan's gaze.
Zhou Zhengan, like her, had a piece of clothing on his body. He wore glasses and had a computer set up next to the sofa. The screen was on with dense words on it.
"Are you still working so late?" Jiang Nan shook his head first, and then asked him in surprise.
It was now past two o'clock in the morning. In Jiang Nan's memory, even if Zhou Zhengan was always busy with work, he would not allow himself to stay up so late.
Could it be that you have been staying at the villa for the past two days and accumulated a lot of work?
"The heater in the room I slept in was broken, so I sat outside for a while." Zhou Zhengan said calmly.
It was the coldest on the mountain at night, so he couldn't call someone to fix it so late. If he was still lying in the bedroom at this time, he would probably have a cold. He wouldn't feel sleepy if he came out and sat here, so he might as well do something practical. things.
Zhou Zhengan had no intention of disturbing Jiang Nan's sleep. He planned to work until midnight and just spend the night on the sofa.
