The end of the year is getting closer.

Wang Mei and Qu Xiangmin planned to open for a few more days before the year before, and wait until the Lunar New Year's Eve to have a holiday.

This year they have agreed to return to Qu Xiangmin's hometown for the New Year, but they still have to prepare the New Year's goods that should be prepared for the New Year.

On this day, Wang Mei left Qu Xiangmin to look after the store, while she took Chu Yan to the supermarket early in the morning.

Red lanterns and festive knots have been hung in the supermarket, and the crowd is bustling with people who come to buy new year's goods everywhere.

Only then did Chu Yan feel that it was indeed the Chinese New Year.

He thought of Huo Qiao, but he didn't know where Huo Qiao would celebrate the new year this year.

If Huo Qiao wasn't in Jiangzhou, he could go back to Uncle Qu's hometown with Wang Mei and the others - both of them really hoped that he could go back with them.

Thinking of this, Chu Yan sent Huo Qiao an emoji package of "Cat Probe".

[Yan: early]

[Yan: Are you awake yet]

Huo Qiao didn't come back, Chu Yan thought he probably hadn't gotten up yet.

He put away his cell phone, and followed Wang Mei to buy snacks such as peanuts and melon seeds.

"This year we don't spend the New Year at home, so we don't need to buy too much meat and vegetables."

Wang Mei muttered, while filling the bag with pistachios.

She was very serious about picking pistachios, choosing one by one, and asked Chu Yan while picking:

"Yanyan, are you going with us? You are alone at home, and your Uncle Qu is not at ease."

After thinking about it, Chu Yan agreed, "Okay."

"That's fine," Wang Mei smiled, "Your Uncle Qu's hometown has a lot of delicious food. They put wine there during the Chinese New Year, and we can eat the most authentic local food. Let him take us there to eat."

Wang Mei is in good spirits and looks younger than before. Although life is still busy, her smile has grown a lot.

Seeing Wang Mei's happy appearance now, Chu Yan was also very happy in his heart. He nodded with a smile.

Coming out of the supermarket, a whole trolley was filled with big and small bags of New Year’s goods.

Upstairs is the shopping mall. Wang Mei looked around and said to Chu Yan, "Go upstairs and buy you a new dress."

Chu Yan already had cotton-padded clothes for the winter this year, and he was not short of clothes, so he hurriedly said, "Mom, you and Uncle Qu will buy them, the ones you bought for me before are still enough to wear."

But Wang Mei glared at him, "How can that be, the whole family will buy it, and they have to wear new clothes for the Chinese New Year."

She dragged Chu Yan up to the men's clothing section on the third floor, and chose a short off-white down jacket with a furry hat for Chu Yan.

"How about this, Yanyan, do you like it?"

The salesperson enthusiastically said that she could try it on, so Wang Mei asked Chu Yan to take off her coat and try on the down jacket.

During this period of time, Chu Yan has become taller again, and he is handsome again, and his clothes show a kind of demeanor like bamboo.

Wang Mei was immediately satisfied, and seeing that Chu Yan did not object, she asked the salesperson to wrap the clothes.

Then she chose Qu Xiangmin's clothes, a long army green down jacket.

When it was time to check out, Chu Yan rushed to pay the bill.

Wang Mei was stunned for a moment, "You child."

"It's my New Year's gift to you."

Chu Yan smiled, "Mom, let's go buy your new clothes."

……

Buying clothes for Wang Mei is more troublesome than buying clothes for Chu Yan and Qu Xiangmin.

While she was trying on clothes, Chu Yan sat on the rest sofa outside and waited for her.

Chu Yan was a little bored. He took out his mobile phone and prepared to code some small articles to be posted on the column.

——After a long period of persistent submission, Chu Yan was invited by Quzhi.com and had a personal column on their website.

At this moment, the phone dinged, and Huo Qiao's message popped up.

Chu Yan quickly clicked on send.

[H: Now it's up]

Chu Yan's eyes lit up, and he replied to Huo Qiao:

[Yan: Did you just wake up]

[Yan: Pig]

-

Huo Qiao got home very late yesterday, he closed his eyes tiredly, and it was already past ten in the morning when he woke up again.

He was woken up by Chen Xingye's phone call.

Huo Qiao took the mobile phone from the bedside table, accidentally touched the wound on his face, and frowned slightly.

"Old Huo, where are you celebrating the New Year this year?"

Chen Xingye's bluffing voice came over, "Are you going abroad? If you go abroad, you can take me away. I can't stay here anymore!"

"how?"

Huo Qiao was sobered up by Chen Xingye's noise. He put his phone on the sink and turned it on.

Amidst Chen Xingye's rambling words, he turned on the tap and washed his face.

He had taken medicine when he came back yesterday, but the left side of his face was still swollen obviously.

Huo Qiao sighed, thinking that he would have to wear a mask for the next few days.

"No, why are you sighing?"

Chen Xingye said: "I'm the one who sighs, okay, since I'm on vacation, I've been scolded by my mother every day, it annoys me to death."

He kept talking like a machine gun, "You haven't told me where you spent this year, it's okay if you don't go abroad, I'll hide in your Huo Mansion for a few days."

Huo Qiao lowered his eyelids and called Chen Xingye's name.

"Chen Xingye."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Huo Qiao said: "I won't go abroad for the Chinese New Year this year, and I won't be in Huo's house, and I won't be in the future."

Chen Xingye was obviously stunned for a while, and then he said in a daze, "What do you mean?"

Huo Qiao was very calm, "I left the Huo family."

Chen Xingye took a long time to digest before he said in disbelief: "...Yes, is that what I think???"

Huo Qiao: "Yes."

"I rely on!"

Chen Xingye was very puzzled, "No, why? Did you have a falling out with your father?"

Huo Qiao gave a faint "hmm".

"Huo Qiao, you're serious," Chen Xingye didn't know what to say.

He tried to think about it with himself, and found that although he always said that he couldn't stay at home anymore, he never really thought about giving up his identity at all.

But he knew Huo Qiao, and Huo Qiao would not joke about this kind of thing.

Huo Qiao's "leaving the Huo family" can only mean leaving the Huo family completely, and it also means giving up completely.

"You are an adult now, and you can take over the Huo family in a few more years. What is there to fall out with your father at this time?"

He paused, then suddenly remembered the boy he saw last time, his heart skipped a beat, and he asked tentatively, "Isn't it because of Chu Yan?"

Huo Qiao didn't speak.

Chen Xingye was going crazy, "Is it worth it just for a man?"

Huo Qiao lowered his eyes, looked at the water flowing from the faucet, and suddenly chuckled.

"It's not just for him, but Chu Yan is really worth it."

Chen Xingye was silent for several seconds before saying, "Are you serious? Are you really together?"

Huo Qiao was always asked if he was serious recently, but for him this was precisely the most indisputable thing.

He hooked his lips, and his voice was clear, "There is no time to be more serious than now."

Seeing him like this, Chen Xingye had nothing to say.

"alright."

He said helplessly, "Do you still have any money? I've spent a lot recently, and I don't have any money left. Let me transfer some money to you first."

A transfer message was prompted on Huo Qiao's send.

Chen Xingye transferred 10 yuan to him, "Don't think it's too little, brother, I'll give you half of the New Year's money when I get it."

Huo Qiao confiscated it.

"I'm not short of money, you keep it for yourself."

There are a lot of things under his name, except for what the Huo family gave him, the second elder of the Meng family also left him a lot.

Chen Xingye tutted, "It's really a skinny camel that's bigger than a horse."

He said again: "If you have anything to say, just say it, don't hold on."

Huo Qiao said "Yes", "Thank you."

-

After Huo Qiao washed up, he picked up his phone and saw Chu Yan's message.

He smiled and replied to Chu Yan: "It's up now."

Chu Yan's message quickly replied:

[Yan: Did you just wake up]

[Yan: Pig]

Huo Qiao could almost imagine Chu Yan's expression when he spoke, those little deer eyes must be very bright.

There was an urge to see Chu Yan in his heart, but reason told him that he couldn't let Chu Yan see his current appearance.

Huo Qiao couldn't imagine how sad Chu Yan would be if Chu Yan found out.

He sighed softly, typed and asked Chu Yan: "What is my baby doing?"

……

[H: What is my baby doing? ]

After receiving Huo Qiao's news, Chu Yan's eyes widened, and his ears turned red from Huo Qiao's word "baby".

He looked around with some guilt, and couldn't help curling up his mouth, and kept sending messages to Huo Qiao with his hands.

[Yan: Accompany my mother to buy new year's goods]

[Yan: There are a lot of people in the supermarket, and there are a lot of things for sale]

Huo Qiao hooked his lips, "Then what did you buy?"

Chu Yan showed him the shopping cart.

[Yan: Look]

[Yan: Bought a car full]

[Yan: We also grabbed very good ribs]

It's only been a day, and Chu Yan already misses Huo Qiao very much.

He sent Huo Qiao a lot of messages as if thinking about it.

[Yan: By the way]

[Yan: Uncle Qu’s relatives sent sausages from their hometown]

[Yan: It's delicious]

[Yan: When you come back, I will steam it for you, and you can also braise sausage rice]

Chu Yan always seems to have magical powers.

When Huo Qiao saw his news, he would calm down and then feel warm.

He smiled and said, "Okay."

Chu Yan typed in the chat window: "I miss you so much."

After thinking about it, I am embarrassed to delete this line of words.

He asked Huo Qiao, "Are you still with your dad?"

Huo Qiao paused, then replied, "Yes."

Chu Yan really wanted to ask when he would come back, but felt that this would disturb Huo Qiao's reunion with his family, so he held back.

He said "oh".

-

Finally, Wang Mei chose a maroon coat.

She looks good in maroon and looks good.

After confirming it, Chu Yan paid the money first as usual.

The owner of the women's clothing store is very good at complimenting people. First she praised Wang Mei for her beauty, and then she kept praising Chu Yan for being sensible, saying that she was envious of Wang Mei.

Wang Mei couldn't help being very happy, but Chu Yan was embarrassed by the praise.

After moving everything back home, Wang Mei went to the store to help again.

Chu Yan packed up all the things he bought.

Today is the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month. He thought that he would go back to Uncle Qu's hometown with Wang Mei and the others to celebrate the New Year in two days. After thinking about it, he decided to go to Yulan Huating to see the camellias.

It's time to water the camellias.

Chu Yan made it when he thought of it. He took out a sausage from the refrigerator and packed it in a bag.

After that, I put on my coat and took the subway to Yulan Huating.

……

Chu Yan never expected that he would meet Huo Qiao in the elevator of Yulan Huating.

He was downstairs waiting for the elevator.

The descending elevator stops at the first floor.

Chu Yan stepped aside, wanting the people inside to come out first.

There was only one person in the elevator, and as soon as Chu Yan raised his head, he met the eyes of the person inside.

——It's Huo Qiao.

Chu Yan opened his eyes wide, looking at Huo Qiao's tall and thin figure in disbelief.

Huo Qiao wore a mask, his handsome face was completely covered, only a pair of beautiful black eyes were exposed.

He and Chu Yan looked at each other, their bodies stiffened for a moment.
