"My real dad! Are you kidding me?"
"Why would Dad joke with you? Look, you're not very happy now."
Listening to his father's voice on the phone, Shen Yu couldn't turn his head. Besides, his tone was obviously shocked. How could he sound happy?
"Dad, don't be ridiculous. Wouldn't your company ask someone else to go on a business trip? Why did you ask me to go? I haven't even been to your company a few times! What can I do if I go on a business trip for you?"
"Don't worry, this business trip is both a business and a private matter. I'm not going to anyone else's house, but your Uncle Qianyu's house. He contacted me two days ago and personally invited me to visit their company. He also asked me to bring you mother and son with me. Let’s go to Yokohama to have some fun in the New Year.”
When Shen Yu listened, he was even more stunned.
"What do you mean? Our family is going to Yokohama to celebrate the New Year with Rika's family? Dad, stop making international jokes..."
"Who are you kidding me? Their company has opened a new production line. I originally wanted to go and check it out. But now I have urgent matters to deal with on New Year's Day. You can go there on my behalf. You don't have to do anything. , just go over and pay a visit to your Uncle Qianyu. Don’t refuse. I’m telling you, our company will still be for you in the end. Business is hard to do now. You must give it to me for this cooperative relationship with your Uncle Qianyu. It’s been maintained! Do you still want the one million?”
As Chen Yu listened, he remembered the exact same words his father said to him four months ago in order to let him live with Li Xiang.
"Hasn't our company gotten through it yet? Last time you said you wanted to change your car..."
"It's just talk! You think doing business is just a joke! In order to achieve better cooperation, a big company is even entering into a business marriage! But don't think about it, Lixiang doesn't like you either."
"Why am I so looked down upon by her..."
"That's it. I'll tell your Uncle Qianyu later that I bought our family's air tickets and applied for visas together. If I don't go, your mother won't go either, but you have to go!"
"When is the flight ticket?"
"On the 31st, when you get there, find your own way to visit me. You're a brat, so don't bother others to pick you up. Come back tomorrow night and help me bring something to give as a gift."
After saying that, Shen Deyou hung up the phone and said with a smile to Zhang Xiaoru, who was eavesdropping on the side: "How is it? Did you do a good job this time?"
Zhang Xiaoru gave Lao Shen a thumbs up and said worriedly: "What if the Qianyu family doesn't like our son..."
"How could it be? Yesterday Kazuo called me. I think he was vaguely interested. Anyway, let Shen Yu go over and give them a look. I really like this girl Li Xiang."
"Your son is just like you when you were young!"
…
Kazuo Asaba did invite Shen Deyou to come to Yokohama for inspection and play two days ago. On the one hand, a new production line was opened, and on the other hand, it was also the New Year. In this difficult year, thanks to Shen Deyou's great help, they The company had just overcome this difficulty and wanted to invite their family over for a vacation so that he could fulfill his duties as a landlord.
Yesterday when picking up Rika, Asaha Kazuo also mentioned it, and Rika thought that at most Uncle Shen would come by himself. After all, with Shen's gloomy temperament, he would never go.
Shen Deyou did have other urgent matters on New Year's Day and had planned to go there with the whole family. After thinking about it, he just let Shen Yu go by himself. After all, his own son was also a representative.
After a lot of fussing between the two sides, the problem was raised to Shen Yu.
It's broad daylight now, but Shen Yu is looking at the sky somewhere in the southern sky in a daze, where is the position of Mars...
He has the air ticket and the visa can be issued on the 30th. He already has a passport. He only applied for it after graduating from the college entrance examination. It is valid for ten years...
"Okay, I definitely can't buy a plane ticket to Yokohama now. I have a passport, but no visa, and it's too late to apply for a visa. If you can get someone to send the plane ticket and visa to me, I will go to Yokohama to accompany you. You celebrate the New Year!"
"you said!"
"I said."
Chen Yu only felt his face snapping as he was pushed to the ground by Li Xiang's Martian-sama...
The development of things was so dramatic that he was still confused and confused, unable to explain what he was feeling.
Based on Shen Yu's understanding of Li Xiang, she definitely didn't know about this before she made a bet with him. Otherwise, she wouldn't have made a bet with him at all. She just excitedly told him about it and kept talking about it. Is it okay for Mr. Shen Yu to come and stay at my house? "It's okay to sleep in my room," and so on.
Vaguely, although I lost the bet again this time, but for some reason, I didn't feel disappointed at all. Instead, I felt the urge to fly to Yokohama to see her...
It's only been a day since she returned, but Shen Yu feels like a long time has passed.
There are still nine days before she comes back.
Go and meet her.
Phew, go on a business trip.
Anyway...I didn't go specifically to see her...Isn't this just a business trip for my father...
Shen Yu thought this, and his complicated mood gradually became happy.
It was already past five o'clock in the afternoon, and there were still about ten minutes before six o'clock. According to the agreement between him and Li Xiang, she would come to him at six o'clock.
So I did nothing, ordered a takeaway, and just sat on the sofa, holding my phone and waiting for news from her...
…
It was already past six o'clock here in Yokohama, and Kazuo Asaba also got off work and went home to have dinner with his mother and daughter.
Shen Deyou just called him not long ago and told him that Shen Yu would go to Yokohama on his behalf. Kazuo Asaba said that he would greet him. Shen Deyou told him to be polite. There is no reason for elders to greet juniors. When the time comes, Shen Yu will come to the door in person. visit.
It is an open matter in the family that their daughter wants to marry Shen Yu. Kazuo Asaba and Miori also want to see with their own eyes the boy who makes Rika so excited. Even if he has no idea about our Rika now, the matchmaking will always be effective. , after all, how many boys can refuse the virtuous and lovely wife given to her for free.
And he could also tell what Shen Deyou meant from the phone. He liked Li Xiang very much, and the two families were quite conservative, and they were always testing each other's intentions during the chat.
"Lixiang, do you have any plans for the New Year?"
"Eh? Me? Of course I'm celebrating the New Year with my dad and mom!"
Asaba Kazuo had a headache. His daughter was too clingy. He wanted to take Miori to a world of two during the New Year, but he didn't want to bring this light bulb with him.
"Li Xiang needs to learn to be independent. During the New Year holiday, you can go play with your friends."
"Well, then I'll go to Chinatown with Sae-chan and watch the light show!" Rika thought for a while and said.
There are many customs during the New Year, such as writing New Year's cards, watching red and white singing shows, listening to the New Year's Eve bells, going to temples to pray, etc. But just like in China, with the development of modernization, young people have become more free to choose their holidays. .
In Japan, fireworks are not set off during the Chinese New Year. They are only set off in the summer. During the New Year period, only the bells are heard, which is a little more deserted than in China.
Many young people will choose to stay at home for a few days, or take advantage of the rare holiday to go shopping. If they go to the temple to burn incense, they mostly just join in the fun. After all, there are many people, and some people have been queuing up since New Year's Eve.
Rika is now a Mars believer, and she is not too keen on going to temples to burn incense. After all, there are too many people. However, her mother Miori goes to Sensoji Temple in Tokyo every year to pray for peace, success and health for her family in the new year.
Kazuo Asaba didn't tell Rika that she heard the news about Shen Yu's coming, and planned to give her a New Year surprise, so he said mysteriously: "This year during the Chinese New Year, I have an important client who came to visit our home, and Rika will also take him with her. Well."
Lixiang frowned. She actually didn't like dealing with strangers, but when her father said he was an important customer, she asked, "Is he a boy or a girl?"
"Boy, I'm the same age as you."
"I do not want!"
Rika decisively refused, got into a temper, ran back to the room with a snort, and ignored Kazuo Asaba.
She had agreed with Shen Yujun that she would not play with other boys, and she had no interest in it at all.
After Rika left, Miori rolled her eyes at Kazuo Asaba angrily and complained: "It's not like you don't know that Rika likes Shen Yu, and you asked her to bring other boys to play with her. It's no wonder she's not angry. What kind of client are you?" Why don't you just go and entertain yourself..."
Kazuo Asaba whispered something into her ear, and Miori's eyes widened.
"Is Shen Yu really coming?"
"Shh, let's keep it a secret for now. Let's give Li Xiang a surprise. Shen Yu is here to take care of her. Let's go on vacation by ourselves during the New Year..."
…
Li Xiang returned to the room, got back under the quilt, hugged Shen Yu's sweater, and lay her little face on it. Unfortunately, she still had a cold, one nostril was blocked, and she couldn't even enjoy the smell.
Fortunately, it was already the appointed time, so she happily made a video call to Chen Yu.
Shen Yu's takeout had arrived. He put it on the table and didn't rush to eat it. Instead, he took a mobile phone holder from the room and put the mobile phone on the dining table. At six o'clock on time, her video call came over.
Shen Yu then opened the takeout box, answered her call request, and ate takeout while chatting with her. Otherwise, without her talking, Shen Yu would have lost his appetite.
"Shen Yujun! Are you eating?"
"Um."
"What did you eat?"
"Green pepper rice bowl."
"Let me see! Let me see!"
"So what if you look at it? You can't eat..."
She said this, but Shen Yu still turned the camera to show her the dinner he had eaten, and asked her by the way: "Have you eaten?"
"Just eaten!"
"Then you're pretty punctual. When you say six o'clock, it's six o'clock."
"Hehe, the time on my mobile phone is still in the Chinese time zone, so the time on our mobile phones is the same. Isn't it so fateful!"
Inexplicably being teased by her again, Shen Yu felt itchy in his heart, as if a kitten was scratching his heart.
When he was eating quietly, Li Xiang didn't say anything, just watching him eat quietly. Just watching him eat made her feel very satisfied.
Shen Yu raised his head and glanced at her on the screen, and asked indifferently, "You seem unhappy?"
"No la… "
"Unhappiness is written all over my face, not yet."
It's strange to say that Shen Yu always feels that he can easily see her emotions clearly. For example, right now, she looks like she is smiling, but her eyebrows and eyes are lowered, not as happy as usual with the corners of her mouth curled up. .
"Well, because Dad said that a client is coming over in the New Year and asked me to take him to play with him, but I don't want to play with him. If Dad still asks me to take him to play with him then, I will pretend to be sick! Hum! , hiding at home and not going out!"
Chen Yu was stunned for a moment, could it be him who was talking about this...
He didn't plan to tell Rika that he was about to go to Yokohama to find... a business trip. After all, the flight was on the 31st and it was only the 27th. It would be in line with him to suddenly appear in front of her and give her a shock or something. style.
Otherwise, if he told her now, Li Xiang would be very proud, feeling that she had won the bet again. Whenever she was proud, Shen Yu would always want to pinch her face to see if she was still unhappy.
"Then leave him alone and let him play by himself."
"Yeah, I don't care about him!"
