Thinking of this, Ji Lianqi felt depressed, confused and annoyed.

"I'm going to cook the dumplings." He let her go, took the pot and went out, regardless of how long they had just had dinner.

The speed of his movements caught Ye Ying off guard and she couldn't stop screaming.

When the man came back after receiving a pot of water, Ye Ying stopped him from eating the dumplings, "It's better not to eat them yet, I can't eat them now!"

Ji Lianqi raised his eyes and looked at the time - it was just after eight o'clock.

It's really early.

"Then we'll eat two hours later."

"Do you have to eat these dumplings today?" Ye Ying was puzzled by Ji Lianqi's persistence, "Didn't you eat them during the day?"

As a southerner, she really doesn't like dumplings!

Ji Lianqi nodded: "I have to eat a few anyway."

Ye Ying couldn't resist him, "Okay, okay, wait until eleven o'clock."

Then, the two started staring at each other in the room.

Ye Ying felt a little bored and suggested that they go to the screening room to watch the Spring Festival Gala together. Ji Lianqi agreed without thinking.

When the two came to the screening room, they were surprised to find that it was packed with people coming to the Spring Festival Gala, and there was almost no room to stand.

This was Ye Ying's first time seeing this battle, and it was much more exaggerated than last year's Chinese New Year celebration at Ji Lianqi's house.

There were many people gathered in front of a black and white TV.

Children are easily satisfied, and just a black and white TV can make them very excited, chattering the whole time.

Ye Ying stood and watched for an hour. Her feet were so tired that she wanted to go back and rest. Before she could ask Ji Lianqi, he pulled her out of the screening room.

"You look a little tired, let's go back and rest."

"it is good."

Her feet were so cold that she lost all feeling, so she went to take a hot bath as soon as possible.

When he came back, there was a bucket of steaming hot water beside the bed, and Ji Lianqi was making dumplings.

"You should soak your feet first so that you can sleep better at night." He said without looking back.

Ye Ying frowned slightly, sat on the bed and stretched her feet into the bucket of hot water, feeling both relieved and confused.

What happened to this guy today? Why did you suddenly become so attentive?

Just because it’s Chinese New Year today?

"The dumplings are ready." After a while, the dumplings were cooked. Ji Lianqi came over and brought a towel to help Ye Ying dry her feet, and then started to help her put on cotton socks.

"What...are you doing?" Ye Ying looked down at the man who was on one knee, becoming more and more puzzled.

Although this was not the first time he treated her like this, she was still not used to it.

"Is it so unexpected?" Ji Lianqi helped her put on socks on her feet, then raised his head and looked at her: "Can I not be nice to my own wife?"

"you...."

This was the second time Ye Ying heard this title and couldn't help covering her lips, "What did you just call me?"

Ji Lianqi stood up to serve the dumplings and said calmly: "Don't say good things a second time."

While talking, a bowl of dumplings was handed to Ye Ying, "Do you want to eat here or go to the table?"

"On the table."

Ji Lianqi filled two bowls and a plate of dumplings and put them on the table. "Eat it. If it's not enough, there's still some leftover."

Ye Ying picked one up helplessly, her eyebrows arched: "Why did you suddenly change your tune?"

"What change of words?"

Ye Ying glanced at him and pursed her lips: "Don't you always call me Ye Ying? Why did you suddenly change your name?"

Ji Lianqi swallowed the dumplings and paused, "Don't you think it's strange to call you Ye Ying?"

"It's okay, I'm used to it. On the contrary, it was the daughter-in-law's voice that shocked me..."

"You'll get used to it gradually." Ji Lianqi looked matter-of-fact. Seeing that none of the dumplings in her bowl had been touched, he urged: "Eat it quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold."

As he said that, he put two more into her bowl and stuffed the bowl full.

Ye Ying stared at the bowl full of dumplings, randomly picked one up and put it into his mouth. Suddenly, he seemed to have eaten something like a coin.

When I spit it out, it turned out to be a coin!

"Did you stuff coins into the dumplings?" Ye Ying exclaimed.

Ji Lian nodded: "Yes. Such a big plate of dumplings only contains one coin, and you caught it."

"Have you ever heard of this saying? It is said that the person who gets the coin will make a lot of money in the new year."

"If you eat it, it means that your factory still has a store, and it will definitely be prosperous in the new year."

Joy filled Ye Ying's eyebrows, "You are interested!"

After eating the dumplings, Ji Lianqi took out a thick red envelope from his pocket: "New Year's money."

"What! You are so self-conscious about preparing New Year's money for me this time!" Ye Ying took the red envelope and weighed it in her hand, then beamed: "You're enlightened, isn't this?"

Ji Lianqi suddenly suppressed his smile and said, "You asked for lucky money once last year, so I remembered it."

"Before this, I never thought about why adults still need lucky money."

Ye Ying raised the corners of her mouth, feeling as if she had been wiped with honey.

"You performed well today."

"Then how are you going to reward me?"

For some reason, Ye Ying always felt that the word "reward" sounded strange at this moment.

"W-what reward do you want?" She hesitated, with two blushes suddenly appearing on her cheeks.

"Ye Ying." Ji Lianqi held her in his arms with a serious face and sighed softly: "Why don't you tell me the test results."

“…”

"Don't be silent." He raised her face and frowned, "Do you know that this makes me feel like an outsider?"

Ji Lianqi took her hand and put it on his chest: "I feel bad when you do this."

A trace of panic flashed across Ye Ying's face, and she said in astonishment: "I didn't intend to hide it from you. I was afraid that I wouldn't have much time to live with my heart disease. I wanted to find another time to go to the compound for another checkup, and then report the results. Tell you."

"Do you think I will believe it?" Ji Lianqi's voice was hard, as if he was still unhappy with Ye Ying's concealment. "You don't even want to hold a wedding. Do you think I don't know what you are thinking?"

Ye Ying's lips moved and she couldn't say a word.

"I'm not going to look down on you just because you have a heart attack."

"Since we are husband and wife, no matter whether you are sick or not, we will face it together." Ji Lianqi's attitude was particularly tough this time, "Promise me that you will never hide anything from me in the future!"
