I use Alpha as a stand-in?lied to him!

Fireworks and firecrackers are banned in the urban area, but Xia Xingchen was woken up by the loud noise very early.

It stands to reason that he lives on a high floor, so the sound shouldn't be carried so far, but during Chinese New Year everyone is always cheerful and noisy.

Xia Xingchen woke up from the trance, listened to the conversations and greetings of passers-by downstairs, and the cars coming and going, feeling a little unreal.

He hasn't celebrated New Year like this for many years.

Maybe there was when I was very young, but when too many past events are bad since I can remember, then the little details of joy are not worth mentioning.

Xia Xingchen got up, opened the curtains and looked downstairs, and suddenly regretted not buying new clothes.

At home, there are Spring Festival couplets and small ornaments with blessing characters, but they were all sent by Jiang Shuo. Xia Xingchen's Chinese New Year is so ordinary every year, that he even forgot to prepare a New Year gift for himself.

He was a little disappointed, but his mood would never become bad because of this disappointment. After washing, he began to decorate the house.

The messages on the phone kept jingling, Boss Huang said hello to him, and according to Xiao Shigen Yuanyuan's request, sent her the growth of the rose every day.

Cheng Shen and the others were handing out red envelopes early in the morning, and the Youth League said that he had already been called up by his mother to make spring rolls when he arrived at home in the middle of the night.

Xia Xingchen swiped the message, and a "1" suddenly popped up on the icon on the left

He cut out and saw that it happened to be a message from Jiang Shuo.

-have you woken up?

Xia Xingchen looked at the time, it was 10:30, this person still remembered what he told him last night that he needed to sleep longer.

With dust on his hands, Xia Xingchen didn't want to type, so he simply made a voice call.

The connection over there was quick, and Jiang Shuo's voice was a little surprised, and he called him hesitantly, "Xing Xing?"

"Yeah." Xia Xingchen responded, "I'm cleaning, my hands are dirty."

This explains the phone call, and the implication is that if I don't want to dirty my phone, I won't call you.

The other end seemed to be stunned for two seconds, Jiang Shuo smiled: "Then you open the door, and I'll fix it."

Xia Xingchen was slightly stunned, his gaze unconsciously shifted to the entrance, and he hesitated for some reason.

It seemed that the person standing outside the door was not Jiang Shuo, but Xia Xingchen.

Jiang Shuo didn't urge him, just waited quietly, about ten seconds passed, Xia Xingchen said, "Wait, I'll go wash my hands."

When the door was opened, the first thing Xia Xingchen saw was a big box. Jiang Shuo pushed the door in and unpacked it and showed him one by one: "I went shopping with Ruoruo yesterday and saw these suits. I think the clothes suit you very well, so I bought them all back, you try them on?"

He said it was a few pieces, but at first glance, there were seven or eight sets of complete packages. Overcoats, cotton clothes, and spring clothes were mostly white or ginger yellow, clean and bright, which was the type Xia Xingchen would choose.

He didn't even know how Jiang Shuo brought it up: "Ruo Ruo didn't laugh at you?"

Accompanying my sister to go shopping, ended up buying him a bunch of things.

"No, I quarreled with me asking me to buy some for her too, but I ignored her." Jiang Shuo said without feeling guilty, without any sense of being an older brother.

"It's too much." Xia Xingchen said to him softly.

Jiang Shuo smiled and didn't try to defend himself, he pushed the cardboard box in, and went out to bring in some things with these unshakable roses: "Before I went out, I brought some dumplings at home, I just made them this morning, and I cooked them You put some up first, I will cook the New Year's Eve dinner later, the flowers were just picked in the morning, they are fresh, I will raise them for you."

"You cook?" Xia Xingchen subconsciously raised his eyebrows.

Jiang Shuo nodded: "I cook most of them, but I also ordered the dishes from the restaurant, which will be delivered later. If my cooking is not delicious, you can eat the chef's cooking."

"It's quite thoughtful." Xia Xingchen said.

Jiang Shuo smiled, rolled up his sleeves and washed his hands: "Go in and try on the clothes to see if they fit you well, and after you change, you'll be like dumplings when you come out."

"it is good."

In fact, there is no matter whether it fits or not. In the three years that Gen Jiangshuo spent together, he did not give him clothes, because he was young and had room to grow taller. He Zhu even asked someone to measure his body data for him every year. Made to order and delivered.

But the fact that Jiang Shuo went shopping to pick clothes for others was probably very novel to him, Xia Xingchen didn't want to dampen his enthusiasm for a while.

The heating was on at home, so it wasn't cold, so Xia Xingchen picked out a caramel-colored plaid spring suit and put it on, walked slowly to Jiang Shuo, and knocked on the partition door of the kitchen: "It fits very well, thank you."

Jiang Shuo was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect him to wear it directly, a little unexpected surprise appeared in his eyes, but he quickly laughed: "That's good."

There were only two people in the house, and Jiang Shuo was cleaning and cooking there, Xia Xingchen felt a little sorry, turned on the TV and put on a cross talk show, and went around the kitchen if he had nothing to do.

In the end, it was Jiang Shuo who couldn't laugh or cry with him, and was chased out: "Don't look at me, if you look at me again, I will blow up your kitchen nervously."

Xia Xingchen: "...Oh."

He was about to wander into the living room to watch TV, Jiang Shuo seemed to dislike his leisurely appearance, and said, "Go and play games, I'm afraid you'll be bored here."

Xia Xingchen was startled, and looked up at Jiang Shuo, with a look of scrutiny in his eyes.

"I'm not being ironic." Jiang Shuo said, "Go and play, go and play."

This picture is very strange, he and Jiang Shuo's identities have been exchanged so much, the person who pleases him has become Alpha, it seems that he is particularly idle.

But since Jiang Shuo asked so, Xia Xingchen didn't stay in the living room anymore.

He does get a little bored.

It's just that he thought about it after entering the computer room, and he didn't close the door as usual to lock himself in a small quiet space.

He hasn't played EPIC for a long time, and his rank has dropped a few stars, but the rank of playing a professional account should not be too high, Xia Xingchen didn't care about this.

Invitations kept popping up. Xia Xingchen started a match first. Halfway through the game, his phone rang a few times. He looked away and found that it was a friend he had added before. He only looked for him when he was online. His.

- Star God, are you online?

- Is it convenient to start a live broadcast?

- everyone misses you

Xia Xingchen paused his fingers for a moment, and was suddenly a little dazed looking at these messages.

Less than a month after he came out of SQG, he himself disconnected from the Internet, but in fact, he also knows that there are different speculations about Venus on the Internet, and many rumors and rumors are spreading everywhere.

There is even a marketing claim that he will retire after the new year is over.

Xia Xingchen originally thought that all the rumors would be self-defeating after he returned to the team, but only then did he realize that the fans might not need him to clarify any rumors, they just wanted to make sure that Venus was doing well.

Xia Xingchen narrowed his eyes, and separated his hands to type:

-10 minutes, I'm done with this game.

He was playing passers-by. His skills were uneven but he could still carry. Xia Xingchen played slowly at the beginning with a leisurely thought. After setting a time for himself, he stopped dawdling and made a quick decision. After finishing the game, he opened the live broadcast platform. .

That water friend is a big fan, and he had been notified in the fan group, so the number of people in the live broadcast room exploded as soon as Xia Xingchen entered.

【Ah ah ah star god! 】

[Happy New Year, my baby! 】

[How is Xing Xing doing this time? 】

【Is Venus really going to retire? 】

【Did you fall in love? I watched other people’s videos before and you were traveling outside】

……

There are too many messages, Xia Xingchen didn't know what to reply first, so he simply adjusted the camera, saw himself in the screen, and said: "Happy New Year, have a good time, I had a minor operation a while ago, and the doctor suggested to rest for a while , and went on a trip.”

"I have no intention of retiring for the time being." He paused, "Well, there probably won't be any in the next two years, so don't worry."

"Thank you everyone for your support, let you worry, I will probably be back next summer."

【very nice! 】

【Eh?The background has changed, did the stars move? 】

【What!Has Star God bought a house in Shanghai? ! 】

[Awesome qaq, so there is still time to live broadcast on New Year's Eve, are you with your family? 】

"Yes, I moved. I bought the house years ago and moved in after it was renovated."

"It's not family... It's friends, he's preparing the New Year's Eve dinner."

【he?she? ? ? 】

[Are there only two people celebrating the new year together! ? 】

[It seems to smell the smell of melon! 】

[Our stars are also taken care of by 555, that's great]

The barrage thinking was a little divergent. Xia Xingchen wanted to explain to them at first, but suddenly took back what he wanted to say after seeing this item, which still didn't stop the fans from guessing.

Does Jiang Shuo take care of him?he does not know.

But Mr. Jiang did exactly as he said, learning to do one by one, without perfunctory or halfway.

Jiang Shuo closed the kitchen door and turned on the range hood, but the smell of food still escaped, stimulating Xia Xingchen's taste buds.

Suddenly his mind was no longer on it.

The fans asked a lot of questions, and he picked out a few innocuous answers, and then went out directly after the New Year's greetings and the live broadcast.

The takeaway Jiang Shuo ordered was delivered, and the other party wanted to arrange the trays neatly for them. Xia Xingchen stopped him after looking at it, carried the takeaway bag into the house, put it on the dining table, and knocked on the kitchen door.

Jiang Shuo turned his head and looked at him suspiciously.

Xia Xingchen opened the door: "I'm a little bored, can I help you?"

"Training is still boring?" Jiang Shuo didn't quite believe it.

Xia Xingchen raised his eyes and glanced at him, and Jiang Shuo was immediately startled by the spring annoyance in the child's eyes.

Such a nimble Xia Xingchen was very much like when we first met.

He looked a little overwhelmed.

Xia Xingchen reminded: "It's going to be confusing."

Jiang Shuo quickly looked at Gu Huohou, and the corners of his lips could not help but rise after he realized it.

The roses in the conservatory have been blooming, and tomorrow he should bring a fresh bouquet to greet his star.

Insert. In the silver willow branches, add a bit of spring.

Jiang Shuo had been busy all afternoon, it was already dark when the food was on the table, Jiang's New Year's Eve dinner was usually eaten at night, Jiang Shuo's phone rang once and then never rang again, Xia Xingchen happened to catch him turning on the Do Not Disturb mode.

It seems that on such a day, spending the New Year with him is the most important thing for him.

Laughter continued outside the window, and there were huge fireworks burning into the sky far, far away. Hundreds of thousands of people celebrated the New Year on the Bund. Xia Xingchen tasted Jiang Shuo's dishes, and his expression relaxed.

Jiang Shuo looked at him expectantly: "How is it?"

Xia Xingchen reluctantly said: "...It's okay."

Jiang Shuo smiled, and the busy afternoon was swept away. He picked up the wine glass, smiled and wished Xia Xingchen: "Xingxing, I hope you have a safe, healthy and happy new year. If you want to play games, you can go and play!" If you want to rest, just rest, I will always be behind you."

This person has lived for so many years, and he probably seldom actively toasts at the dinner table. Xia Xingchen is used to his domineering appearance before, and he misses it a little.

He didn't accept Jiang Shuo's toast, smiled, and nodded his chin at the plate of steamed mandarin fish that he served: "Taste first."

Jiang Shuo's expression froze, a little confused.

He took a bite of the fish as he said, his eyes widened with salt, and he pressed his taste buds with red wine.

Xia Xingchen made him laugh, then picked up the wine glass and lightly touched the wall of his glass: "You better not think about going into the kitchen, I'm afraid you'll poison me."

President Jiang was a little frustrated, his expression looked like a dog with its ears hooked up, but what he said seemed to be climbing a pole: "Then let me practice more, Boss Huang's ex-husband can cook."

"What do you compare to him? He still has two children." Xia Xingchen couldn't hold back.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Jiang Shuo's eyes brighten a little, looking at him with hot and blank eyes, but before Xia Xingchen could refute, he shook his head: "No, it will hurt your body."

Xia Xingchen pursed his lips, without hiding his smile, and asked, "Do you still have the toast you just made? I still want to hear it, and I want a new one."

Jiang Shuo: "I hope everything you wish will come true."

"You are so old-fashioned, Mr. Jiang." Xia Xingchen asked him for his blessings, but when it was coming, he thought he was old-fashioned and difficult to serve.

Jiang Shuo was not annoyed, and looked at him with a smile: "Then you teach me?"

"Let's talk about it later." Xia Xingchen smiled, and heard the countdown to the start of the party on TV: "If we can celebrate the New Year together next year, I will decide whether to teach you or not."

"Happy New Year." He raised his wine glass, waited for Jiang Shuo to recover from his daze, and lightly touched it.

Spring is coming, Mr. Jiang's greenhouse should be in the spring, and he misses it a little.

Only a little bit.

Let's go when we come back from the trip.
