Jiang Rou and Cheng Fei lived closer to the city, so they arrived home first. Tang Zeyu and his sister lived in the suburbs, so it was already past one o'clock when Jiang Beichen sent them home.

After looking at the distance, he did not ask the driver to return to Jiang's house, but instead prepared to go to his other residence near the suburbs.

Jiang Beichen's family has many properties, and the manor where the birthday party was held that day was just one of Jiang Beichen's residences.

“Ding Di~”

Jiang Beichen's phone vibrated.

It was a message from Jiang Rou, asking him if he had arrived home.

Jiang Beichen looked at the message sent by the other party and replied with a smile on his face: "It's almost there, I'll be home in ten minutes."

After Jiang Beichen sent the message, he kept staring at the phone screen, waiting to reply to Jiang Rou's next message in seconds.

At this moment, the driver who had been driving quietly suddenly said, "Master, there seems to be a dark shadow ahead."

"Um?"

Jiang Beichen raised his head when he heard this.

Just as the driver said, at the end of the road ahead, there was a vague black shadow swaying in the middle of the road, but it was too far away to tell whether it was a person or another animal.

Jiang Beichen said to the driver, "It's the middle of the night, in the middle of nowhere, there can't be anyone here, right?"

"It should be some kind of animal," the driver consoled him. "Wild boars will come out with their piglets to look for food at night. You can't see clearly from a distance, but it looks like this, a black mass."

"That shadow is so high, it doesn't look like a wild boar." Jiang Beichen touched his chin and said, "Drive faster, let's go take a look."

"Okay, Master."

Jiang Beichen's driver is a professional bodyguard with excellent skills. His best record is 1v5 professional fighters. Naturally, he will not be scared by a black shadow.

The car began to accelerate, and as the distance got closer, the black shadow suddenly changed from one to three.

Both of them opened their eyes wide and stared at the black shadow carefully. They both wanted to see clearly what the black shadow was.

But when the car really got closer, the black shadow disappeared in an instant. The end of the road was empty, with nothing there. If both of them were not very sure that they really saw the black shadow, they would almost doubt whether they were dazzled.

The driver slowed down and asked Jiang Beichen for his opinion: "How about I go down and take a look?"

"No, no!"

Although Jiang Beichen is not a timid person, what happened tonight was too weird. In this remote place, he was really afraid that something might happen to the driver when he got off the car, so he decided not to take the risk.

"Let's go."

"Okay, Master."

After receiving Jiang Beichen's instructions, the driver said no more. After turning a corner, he drove away quickly.

After the car drove away, several ferocious tattooed men dragged a fainted beggar, who was thin but had all his limbs intact, back to the main road from the bushes on the side of the road.

One of the men cursed: "Damn it, we almost let this stinky beggar get away!"

"If we let this beggar run away, none of us will survive!"

"It's really strange that there are cars in this remote place at night."

"Why bother with him so much? Just carry him back first."

After leaving the intersection, Jiang Beichen looked back out the rear window. Although they had gone far away and could not see anything, Jiang Beichen somehow felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Anyone would probably feel uncomfortable if they encountered such a strange thing late at night.

But soon, he was immersed in the conversation with Jiang Rou again, and all these messy things were thrown behind him.

Jiang Beichen: "What time do you go to bed?"

Jiang Rou: "Almost there. I just finished taking a shower and am lying on the bed now. Are you home yet?"

Jiang Beichen: "It should be here in a few minutes."

Jiang Rou: "Thank you for taking us home tonight. It delayed your return home."

Jiang Beichen: "It's okay, it's not hard."

[If the driver knew what they were talking about, he would probably complain in his mind: "Yes, of course you don't have a hard time, because I'm the one driving!"]

Jiang Beichen: "Any plans for the New Year?"

Jiang Rou: "Maybe I'll go to my hometown with my dad to celebrate the New Year."

Jiang Beichen: "So I won't be able to see you during the New Year?"

Jiang Rou: "You can also come to my hometown to play with me."

Jiang Beichen: "Is it really possible?"

Jiang Rou: "Well, sure. My hometown is not too far from downtown Shangjing. It only takes an hour or so to drive there."

Jiang Beichen: "Okay."

Although the housewarming ceremony last night lasted until the early morning, Han Juyou still got up early this morning.

She found out last night that Liu Chenghan was going to the company this morning and Zhou Min was also going back to Chan Gong Manor, and they would both get up very early, so Han Juyou, as the future daughter-in-law of the Liu family, had her own little plans.

She got up early and prepared a large table of delicious breakfast for her family.

The breakfast variety is comparable to that of a Cantonese dim sum restaurant, with a large table full of food.

As soon as Liu Chenghan and Zhou Min woke up, they could smell the fragrance of breakfast. When they went downstairs, they could see a large table of delicious food and hear Han Juyou's sweet "Good morning~". After going through this process, their mood improved every day for two days, and they had a better impression of Han Juyou.

Zhou Min looked at the breakfast on the table and asked in surprise: "Xiao Han, did you make all this?"

Han Juyou didn't take off her apron. She said, "Well, I don't know what uncle and aunt like, so I made a little more. You two can eat first. If you want to eat anything, tell me and I'll make some more."

"Hey, come back!" Zhou Min grabbed Han Juyou's hand, pulled her to her side, and took off her apron. "That's enough for this time. These are both our favorite foods. You've worked hard all morning. Come sit down and eat together."

"It's not hard, not hard." Han Juyou waved his hand and said, "When I lived with my mother, I made breakfast at home, but my cooking skills are not good enough, so it may not be as delicious as my mother's."

"Of course, it's delicious!" Liu Chenghan ate one steamed dumpling after another and said with a smile, "Your steamed dumplings made with fresh meat are better than those made by the chef I hired at a high price."

Zhou Min also nodded and said, "Yes, yes, you can teach Auntie when you are free in the future. After your mother taught me last night, I am now very interested in cooking."

The three of them sat at the dining table, eating breakfast and chatting. The atmosphere was very harmonious.

When they were almost done eating, Chen Menglian also got up.

Liu Chenghan and Zhou Min kept praising Han Juyou in front of Chen Menglian, making Han Juyou feel a little embarrassed. Chen Menglian smiled with satisfaction and nodded.

Chen Menglian said to the two of them, "My dear relatives, this New Year, why don't our two families have a meal together? I'll make you some home-cooked meals."

Zhou Min glanced at Liu Chenghan, and when she saw Liu Chenghan nod, she immediately said, "Okay, I'll learn from him when the time comes."

After Zhou Min finished speaking, Liu Chenghan said, "We also have to prepare New Year's Eve dinner at home... How about this, you prepare it at noon, and we will go to Chan Palace Manor to prepare New Year's Eve dinner together at night, and we will have a good New Year."

Zhou Min immediately agreed: "This is a good suggestion!"

Chen Menglian nodded and said, "Okay, okay, then you must come at noon."
