The new year is approaching, because Yi Dazhuang won the compensation for the kidnapping case and took a lot of advertising fees from the media, he decided to treat us to a big meal and book at the most authentic, popular and luxurious... Hot pot restaurant.
After booking the seat, Yi Dazhuang specially @me in the group, asked me to bring my brother, and said that I would like to thank him for saving my life.
Hot pot restaurant? Sheng Minou
Even if he could bear the noisy environment, he probably couldn't bear the smell...
However, when I tentatively texted Sheng Minou about this matter, he actually responded to me with "Got it". I confirmed it again and again, and emphasized to him that it was hot pot, the kind of hot pot that many people eat in one pot.
He probably thought there was something wrong with me, so he replied after a long time: "I know what hot pot is."
OK, good to know.
After a period of treatment, the kitten gradually grew long hair and became plump.
I originally wanted to wait for it to grow up and find someone to adopt, but Shen Xiaoshi suddenly said that his mother felt sorry for the kitten after seeing the photo of the kitten. It happened that her new house was also packed, and she wanted to ask me for a kitten if she lacked a companion. to raise.
Of course it couldn't be better. A while ago, Shen Xiaoshi's mother had been living with Shen Xiaoshi because the property division had not been completed, but Shen Xiaoshi was also a renter, and it was very inconvenient to live in a small house.
Fortunately, the money was finally settled recently, and she was completely cleared up with the other end. She bought a second-hand house near her son's house. The furniture was ready-made, and she was ready to move in after cleaning in a few days.
It's not a bad place to leave the kitten to her.
The next day I packed the cat and all its belongings and handed them over to Shen Xiaoshi, and explained to him in detail the time for the next vaccination and the precautions for diet.
Shen Xiaoshi wrote it down carefully to make me feel at ease. When I got home, I updated my circle of friends. There were all kinds of photos of his mother holding a kitten, watching TV, doing housework, eating, and sleeping with her. .
"I seem to have a younger brother." Shen Xiaoshi said with words.
I couldn't help laughing, so I showed it to Sheng Minou, who glanced at Shen Xiaoshi's mother on the screen and said, "Ms. Yao has changed a lot."
Shen Xiaoshi said that his mother would occasionally be awakened by nightmares at night. The influence of the past is still great, but everything is developing in a good direction. Human beings are strong and tenacious. Time heals.
"Because love can change a person." I rubbed against Sheng Minou who was reading a book, pressed my face to his chest, listened to his gentle and strong heartbeat, and slowly closed my eyes.
Sheng Minou didn't chase me away, and continued to read books in this awkward posture.
Listening to the rhythm of drums below me, I gradually fell into a deep sleep. In a blur, he was sleeping soundly, as if someone had moved his position.
I frowned in dissatisfaction, turned over, and wanted to get close to the heat source next to me again, but I faintly heard a soft click above my head.
"Clingy..."
I muttered, wanting to refute, but I couldn't open my eyes, I just slipped into the arms of the person next to me again, and refused to let go.
When I got up the next day, Sheng Minou rubbed his shoulders and neck uncomfortablely while washing. I saw it in the mirror, biting my toothbrush and reached out to squeeze it for him.
"What, stiff neck?"
Sheng Min'ou glanced at me lightly, the look in his eyes made me startled, and I subconsciously reflected on whether I had done anything wrong recently.
"It's okay." Sheng Minou looked away and squeezed toothpaste, "I read too much recently."
On the day when Yi Dazhuang treated guests to a New Year’s Eve dinner, Sheng Minou was late for a meeting, so we all went to the hot pot restaurant first.
Yi Dazhuang made a reservation early, got a private room, and had TV to watch.
The biggest news recently is the matter of Mei Teng. When the investigation results came out, he was directly fined hundreds of millions of dollars. Mei Teng held a press conference to apologize to the public, Xiao Suiguang was unable to attend due to physical reasons, and handed over the full authority to his only daughter.
Xiao Moyu encountered a big change in his family, changed his previous cynical image of the rich second generation, wearing a black formal suit, with a simple ponytail, no makeup on his face, standing in the middle of a group of high-level people. She speaks clearly, her tone is neither humble nor overbearing, and she seems to be full of sincerity. I don't know if there is a public relations team to check for her in advance.
With Xiao Meng imprisoned, Xiao Suiguang has no choice, and the precarious business empire in the future will all fall on the shoulders of Xiao Moyu alone.
Speaking of which, I wanted to confess to Zheng Mimi a while ago, and sent her a long letter of hundreds of words, only to find out that I was blocked by her at some point. Thinking about it from Xiao Moyu, she already knew everything.
Although she didn't get along much, the little girl was a nice person. Now it seemed that her fate with this little senior sister was over.
The dishes were all served, Shen Xiaoshi poured drinks for each of us, without sitting down, he held a cup to pay respects to Yi Dazhuang and me, with a serious expression on his face.
Yi Dazhuang and I looked at each other in blank dismay, seeing that the matter was not simple, I couldn't help standing up and answering him.
"Brothers have something to confess to you today."
I saw Wei Shi's attitude of staying out of the way and eating peanuts there, and I felt confident.
But Yi Dazhuang was still confused: "Your expression... what's the matter?"
Shen Xiaoshi swallowed the fruit orange in the cup in one gulp, and said proudly: "I'm with my third brother!"
In the next moment, apart from the sound of the TV broadcasting the news and the sound of the hot pot soup boiling in the box, there was only the sound of Yi Dazhuang gasping in shock.
"Wait..." He couldn't turn the corner at all, "Is the one you said together the one I thought?"
Shen Xiaoshi told him directly with actions, yes, it was what he thought - he directly attached himself to Wei Shi's lips and left a loud kiss.
"God!" Yi Dazhuang gasped again, looked at Wei Shi and the others, and then at me, "You, why aren't you surprised at all?"
The time for me to be surprised has long passed, and now it can be said that the waves are calm.
"Because I already knew."
Yi Dazhuang shook his hand, and the drink in the cup was spilled out.
"What? You already knew?" He trembled, "Fuck, my brother has become a sister-in-law, I... I just woke up, I'm a little dizzy."
Since this is the case, it is better to hit the sun than to choose a date. I toasted the three people present and announced that I have something to say.
Yi Dazhuang covered his chest: "You have it too?"
I smiled at him: "I'm with my brother." After finishing speaking, I drank the yellow beer in my glass.
Yi Dazhuang almost didn't come up in one breath, and fell into the chair.
Shen Xiaoshi looked at me in confusion for a while, and finally said: "Brother Feng, you too?"
"It's not a coincidence."
He scratched his head and sat down. Seeing that Wei Shi was still eating peanuts, he frowned and said, "Why aren't you surprised at all? Did you know this earlier?"
Wei Shi finally stopped his chopsticks, coughed lightly and said, "It's just a little earlier than you."
Shen Xiaoshi was thoughtful: "No wonder... I thought they were weird when they played Truth or Dare."
Yi Dazhuang wailed there, looking like the mountains and rivers were broken and the world collapsed.
"In the end, I'm the only one who's really single... Why are you guys like this!"
When Sheng Min'ou was led in by the waiter, Yi Dazhuang had roughly accepted the fact, before he started eating, he stood up and offered a toast to Sheng Min'ou.
"Lawyer Sheng, Brother Feng will leave it to you in the future."
Sheng Minou raised his eyebrows, because he had to drive, so he just drank the tea in the cup.
The meal was quite enjoyable, but the three of them in the team came out one after another, and Yi Dazhuang also needed time to digest, and he behaved somewhat awkwardly at the table.
I was afraid that Sheng Minou would be uncomfortable, so I kept feeding him food, and if I didn't pay attention, there would be too much food in his bowl. But Sheng Minou didn't stop me, and slowly ate everything I gave him bit by bit.
I wanted to see if he would keep eating, and would not refuse anyone, so I deliberately gave him a lot of food. Seeing that his brows were furrowed a little bit, he finally stopped me when I was about to give him a fish ball.
"eat by yourself."
I snickered and bit the fishball into my mouth: "Oh."
It will be a new year in a few hours, and the meal is almost finished, Shen Xiaoshi jumped up to enliven the atmosphere, asking everyone to make a new year's wish.
"I'll come first. My wish is that my family and friends, those who I like and those who like me, will be healthy and safe." He used his chopsticks as a microphone and handed it to Wei Shi. "Sir, what is your wish?"
Wei Shi thought for a while, and said: "Stay away from villains, and make money. In addition, I hope my little lover can take the initiative."
Shen Xiaoshi's cheeks turned red all of a sudden, and he quickly ran to Yi Dazhuang holding his chopsticks.
"I hope I can get out of the singles soon and find a girlfriend." Yi Dazhuang put his hands together, bowed to the sky, and emphasized loudly, "It's a girlfriend girlfriend, pay attention, girl!"
The "microphone" came to me soon, and I actually didn't have any unfulfilled wishes. I glanced at Sheng Minou, and I barely thought of one.
"Then... I hope my brother's wish can come true."
Yi Dazhuang clicked his tongue and shook his head.
Sheng Minou also looked over, stared at me for a while, and finally said under Shen Xiaoshi's urging: "Just keep the status quo."
This is really a simple and unpretentious wish that is very in line with my heart.
I echoed, "Yes, it's fine to maintain the status quo."
After eating, we said goodbye to each other. I walked side by side to the parking lot with Sheng Minou, and suddenly a little cold fell on my nose.
I stopped and looked up to the sky. Under the dim light, tiny snowflakes kept falling from the sky.
Snowing…
I caught the snowflakes with my hands, and after a while there was only a pool of small drops of water left in the palm of my hand.
Going to see Sheng Minou again, I found that he had already walked a short distance.
He was wearing a light brown wool coat, just from the back, he looked like a long-legged supermodel walking out of a pictorial.
It was also this figure from the back that made me stare at it for a long time. Since I was born, I seem to have been watching his back, chasing him, trying to catch up with him, trying to keep him in various ways, hoping that he can stop for me.
but now…
Sheng Minou stopped and looked back at me, his chiseled side face perfectly looked like a breathing sculpture under the light.
Now I don't have to helplessly watch his back going further and further away but there is nothing I can do. I can stop him, catch up with him, and even make him stop for me.
"Look, it's snowing." I ran towards him and grabbed his arm.
Sheng Min'ou looked up to the sky, white gas came out of his mouth as he spoke.
"Auspicious snow heralds a good year, and next year will be a good year."
I took his hand and reached into his coat pocket. The wind is cold, but the hands are warm. As we walked forward, Ren Xue fell on our shoulders, like a layer of hoarfrost.
With him around, every year to come will be a good one.
"Happy New Year."
Sheng Minou's low voice suddenly sounded in my ear, I was taken aback, and turned to look at him, but he just looked forward, with his eyelashes drooping slightly.
After the astonishment passed, I quickly laughed again in relief.
"Well, happy new year."
Winter is coming to an end, the year is coming to an end, and spring is not far away.
