The phone rang several times, and Jiang Sisi insisted on dialing the number, thinking of sending her blessings at midnight, but Shen Qinghuan didn't answer any of them, her mind was too confused, and she was afraid that her mood would affect Jiang Sisi again.

Anyway, we will meet tomorrow, so give her some buffer time.

This night passed especially slowly. He Sinian smoked countless cigarettes in the study, and every time the idea of ​​going back to the bedroom to find Shen Qinghuan came to his mind, it was instantly extinguished. At two o'clock in the morning, he went downstairs to meet Seeing that Mumu was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed on the sofa, he carried Mumu to the upstairs room, and then directly rested in the study.

She didn't need to go to the company on the first day of the new year, she made an appointment with Chen Ming and Jiang Sisi to have dinner at the villa earlier, Shen Qinghuan remembered this, and sent them a text message early in the morning, saying that they are welcome to come over anytime.

After having breakfast in the old house and saying hello to the old lady, the family of three got on the car to go home.

No one spoke on the road, and the atmosphere in the carriage was terribly silent. Occasionally, Shen Qinghuan and Mu Mu chatted a few words, but they both had a casual attitude. Shen Qinghuan felt that this was good, maintaining a peaceful status quo, and saving face for this festival , without arguing forcefully, otherwise her head would really be blown off.

"Mommy, I received a lot of red envelopes." The person Mumu was dissatisfied with was He Sinian, who still smiled when talking to Shen Qinghuan.

"You collect it yourself, and hide it in your small treasury. You can buy whatever you want in the future." Shen Qinghuan's voice was a little hoarse, and she didn't have a good rest last night, like a precursor to a cold.

Mumu hummed, then turned her head out of the window, blinked curiously at the scenery on both sides of the road, and at the same time held back a stubbornness, even though she really wanted to play a tablet, she didn't mention it.

Chen Ming and Xiao Ya watched the New Year's Eve together last night. The two of them had a sweet time. When they came as guests, there were traces of happiness and nourishment on their faces. They also specially brought gifts, and gave Mumu a big red envelope.

"Sit down first. I prepared hot pot ingredients a few days ago. I will eat hot pot today. Don't be disgusted. My cooking skills are too bad. I don't want to embarrass your stomach."

Shen Qinghuan cut up fresh fruits and brought them to the hall, laughing and teasing herself.

"We can eat whatever we want. Do you need any help? I'll be with you." Xiaoya felt very uncomfortable sitting, which may have something to do with the size of the villa. She looked fresh but couldn't enjoy it. .

"How can I ask you to help? If you feel bored, you can watch a movie. There is a screening room on the first floor, and there is a swimming pool outside. You can go swimming with Chen Ming. There seems to be nothing else. By the way, we can go to the rooftop at night , there is a telescope on it to see the distant starry sky."

Shen Qinghuan said it casually, but Xiaoya showed a shocked expression when she heard it, and couldn't help sighing, "Mr. Shen, is your house a palace? Why does it have everything, it's simply too luxurious."

"It's not that exaggerated, it's just too empty, wouldn't it be a waste not to decorate it?"

Chen Ming answered from the side, "This villa has at least nine digits, and Shen is always a veritable wealthy family. Did you know that from the first day?"

Xiao Ya gave him a white look, "Isn't this the first time I've seen it, anyway, if I were Mr. Shen, I would definitely not work hard, just enjoy life with peace of mind."

"You don't have that blessing, so you still have to keep working hard, but it's not impossible for you to be a full-time wife. I can afford you."

"You think beautifully. I am an independent woman in the new era. I must strive for my career."

The two had a quarrel when they disagreed, they looked like no one else, they were very intimate, Shen Qinghuan watched this scene, her heart was touched again, she looked upstairs, it was empty and there was no one there, He Sinian went to the study after returning , I don't know what I'm doing right now, she can prevaricate Chen Ming by saying that He Sinian was too busy with work to come down to greet them, but when Jiang Sisi comes, her sixth sense has always been sensitive, and she probably can see it at a glance. It turned out that the two of them were having a conflict.

After taking the ingredients out of the refrigerator and putting them in the dining room, she decided to go upstairs and talk to He Sinian, at least do a good job of superficial skills for today, and then He Sinian can blame her whatever he wants.

She walked slowly to the door of the study room, her footsteps were so heavy that she couldn't move anymore, when she was about to reach out to knock on the door, the door was opened, He Sinian held a cigarette in her hand, the smell of tobacco and alcohol came to her face, Shen Qinghuan Turning his gaze inside, he found two bottles of red wine on the desk.

"You drink less." Shen Qinghuan's voice was very low, as if she didn't even have the confidence to persuade him. Before He Sinian could answer, she changed the subject, "Chen Ming and the others are here, Sisi will also Come on, you can also call Jesse, it will be more lively."

"Shen Qinghuan."

He Sinian gritted his teeth and called her name, he stretched out his hand and tightly grabbed Shen Qinghuan's wrist, and pulled her into the room, turning around, Shen Qinghuan's back was leaning against the cold wall.

Maybe it was because his aura was too strong, Shen Qinghuan was startled, she closed her eyes trying to hide, panting heavily, not daring to make a sound.

"Are you afraid of me? Why are you afraid of me? Are you guilty?"

He Sinian suddenly sneered, with a look of anger that he had never seen before. He thought that he was mature enough in dealing with feelings, no matter how big the rift between the two of them had, he could deal with it with a peaceful mind and would never make any mistakes. Insomnia numbs its actions with alcohol.

But it turns out that he was wrong. The more you love, the less confident you are. This is everyone's weakness, and he has not been an exception.

"I didn't. After today, I will talk to Mu Mu, and there will always be a way to explain it clearly to him," Shen Qinghuan panicked and didn't know how to explain.

She wanted to delay, even if she endured the great fluctuations in her heart, but He Sinian was completely different, he couldn't bear some things for even a minute.

He Sinian let her go, and he said coldly, "I understand what you mean, I will pretend nothing happened and receive guests with you."

"Sinian, I'm really sorry, I,"

He Sinian interrupted her, "Don't be sorry, maybe deep down in your heart, you also think that Jin He is a good person. Mu Mu can learn a lot by chatting with him more. Didn't you value his talent and his strength back then? Cooperate? I have no reason to blame you, I care too much, and I care too much about you."

"It's not like that, I don't have that kind of thought," Shen Qinghuan's throat was sore, her eyes were wet, and she was about to cry.

"Go out."

He Sinian opened the door, turned around and no longer looked at her red eyes, he couldn't be soft-hearted every time, always pampering her like this, in exchange for today's result.

In order to cover up the traces of crying on her face, Shen Qinghuan had to put on heavy makeup to ensure a rosy complexion. She also avoided black, white and gray tones in her choice of clothes, choosing a lotus root pink sweater and black suit pants. The temperature at home is high, so dress casually More comfortable.

Chen Ming and Xiao Ya were bored, and after Ye Ke came, they found Shen Qinghuan to play mahjong at a table.

Time flickered to noon, the game was temporarily suspended, everyone divided the work to prepare lunch, Jiang Sisi stuck to order, she was tightly wrapped, dressed very casually, once she came in and changed her slippers, she didn't treat herself as an outsider, she just crossed her legs and played on the sofa picked up the phone.

Shen Qinghuan vaguely heard her beating Zou Yuan, probably because Zou Yuan didn't come back on time and had to stay at his house until the third year of junior high, and the two hadn't seen each other for almost a week.

After she hung up the phone, Shen Qinghuan went over to ask her, "Why don't you accompany Zou Yuan to meet his family? Isn't it that you will get married after the next year, and the ugly daughter-in-law will always see her in-laws."

"His family is well-mannered. I don't have a common language with them. They are very hostile to the business family. I don't want to get into trouble. The engagement came from his mother before. It seems that everyone except her is dissatisfied with my daughter-in-law." That's why Jiang Sisi yelled at Zou Yuan on the phone.

Shen Qinghuan also heard from her that she didn't worry about it at the time, but now that he thinks about it, it has become a problem. Fortunately, Zou Yuan and his parents don't see each other a few times a year, otherwise Jiang Sisi would be worried.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with him. We'll talk slowly when he comes back. If his family still has the same attitude when the wedding is held, I suggest not to attend. My family is not easy to mess with, and all of them are in business. I don't know them. Where did the arrogance come from, I thought our two families were in the same family, but they secretly disliked us and accepted it."

Jiang Sisi sighed, rolled up her sleeves and went to the restaurant to help, Shen Qinghuan followed behind her, and persuaded with a smile as she walked, "It can be understood that the Zou family is afraid of your family, they have their nobility, and your family also has its own confidence, If you really want to compare them in this era, it will overwhelm them.”

"That's right, I think so too. It makes me look like I'm climbing up to their family. What's wrong with my conditions? People in the circle are chasing me up to now, okay? Even if he's married, Zou Yuan has to be there all the time." A sense of crisis, otherwise I will easily change my mind.”

"Just tell me what you said, and Zou Yuan will definitely be angry if he hears it." The word change of heart is too sensitive.

Jiang Sisi shook her head, "That won't happen, he has a super good temper, he is [-] times better than your Mr. He, it doesn't matter what I say."

Shen Qinghuan's eyes dimmed when she heard the words, and it was true after thinking about it.

"Is Mr. He not at home? Didn't even say hello to him." Jiang Sisi stretched her neck and looked around.

"He's working in the study, and he'll be down later. Although he doesn't have to go to the company, he still has things to deal with."

"As expected of a man who can become a legend, it doesn't matter if he is talented. I have been working hard on the first day of the new year. I admire him so much."

Shen Qinghuan didn't continue the conversation, and was entangled in how to get along with He Sinian in the future. There was already a conflict in the first place, and she definitely couldn't pretend to be intimacy. He probably wouldn't cooperate with her either.

Just as she was thinking wildly, He Sinian's voice came from next to her ears. He was wearing a neat suit, with a serious aura around him, and he seemed to be going out.

"Sorry, I can't spend the holidays with everyone. An important client just called, and I have to go to the company."
