Who would come here in the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year

Jian Jing was full of suspicion and clicked the video button, it was another cat cake.

The man was so surprised that he opened the door and let the person in. Half a minute later, the elevator arrived at the floor, and the sneaky masked man with the fat cat in his arms slipped in like a thief.

"Teacher Jingjing, Happy New Year." Jiang Baiyan took off his mask and gave a big smile.

Jian Jing: "Aren't you in Beijing?"

"I flew back after the performance." Jiang Baiyan stroked the knight's head. They were already very familiar with each other, and the knight was not as repulsive to him as he was at the beginning.

"Why don't you come back?"

"It's too miserable to be alone on New Year's Day." He made a face and looked at the dining table, "Is there anything to eat? I'm hungry."

Jian Jing turned on the induction cooker again and heated up the pot: "Do you have some meat, vegetables, or instant noodles?"

"You can cook them together. Hot pot noodles are the most delicious." He took off his thick down jacket and put on a long-sleeved T-shirt underneath.

Jian Jing unpacked her instant noodles while saying, "Aren't there any lunch boxes for the Spring Festival Gala?"

"I'm rich now, but I don't dare eat too much, my face will get swollen." He rubbed his cheeks, "I'm starving. Airplane food tastes terrible."

The bottom of the pot will boil quickly, then put in the noodles and vegetables, crack an egg, and finally pour in the remaining beef rolls. Turn off the heat when it is cooked through.

The taste was so delicious that Jian Jing, who was already full, couldn't help herself and served herself a small bowl.

He changed the channel and put some sauce on the noodles: "Is the show going well?"

"No way." He swallowed three times before speaking. "A lot of things went wrong. During the rehearsal, they said this skit was not good and might have to be removed. Then they didn't take it away. They said they would change the lines at the last minute. When it was almost time to go on stage, my clothes got stained. In the end, I borrowed a similar coat - didn't you notice? I kept my sleeves rolled up, and the sleeves were too long."

"It sounds messy."

"It's like this on every stage." Jiang Baiyan said, "It's especially special today."

Jian Jing smiled, picked up the pudding that was crawling on the coffee table, and scratched its chin: "Poor pudding, you've lost weight."

Jiang Baiyan was very alert: "Don't feed it snacks, it's not easy to lose two kilograms."

Jian Jing kissed Pudding’s head.

Pudding meows, and her voice is so cute and sweet that it melts people's hearts.

Jiang Baiyan ate noodles with big mouthfuls.

"Is it okay to eat so much?" Jian Jing asked.

He yawned slightly. "It's okay. My job today is to promote rose gold. I have to do roadshows in several cities. There will be two ads in March. This can be photoshopped. It's not a big deal."

"Rose Gold" is scheduled to be released on February 14, avoiding the busy Lunar New Year period and targeting Valentine's Day instead.

The promotion also mentioned suspense and romance, and the two elements were juxtaposed, so it met the expectations of many book fans - the original text was too restrained, and everyone was looking forward to the movie to show some sweet moments.

Jian Jing asked: "Have you finished the film?"

Jiang Baiyan's face fell: "Director Mei told me not to do it, did you do it?"

“I didn’t go.” When the movie was screened internally, he was fighting wits and courage with the curse in the Winter Castle.

Jiang Baiyan changed the topic again: "Will "Devil Doctor 2" be online tomorrow, no, today, December?"

Jian Jing nodded, feeling a little melancholy. In the blink of an eye, Shao Meng and Xie Wei had been dead for more than a year.

"Don't worry, the audience will at most compare the differences between the two versions. Shao Meng is dead after all, and no one will say anything." Jiang Baiyan pretended to be unable to show his melancholy and comforted him with a smile, "You don't have to worry even more. The filming is what you wrote. If it doesn't work, it's Director Huang's fault."

Jian Jing was amused by him: "Be careful or I'll tell Director Huang."

"Ah, you are so mean." He complained, "I spent so much effort to persuade the directors."

"Then what else do you say?"

"You're the one who said that." He opened a can of Coke Zero, gulped down a few mouthfuls, and let out a long breath. "Complimenting others together is acting. Speaking ill of others together is true."

Jian Jing couldn't help laughing.

"If you betray me, I won't tell you any secrets anymore." Jiang Baiyan opened his arms, "Give me back the pudding, and you'll have a knight."

Knight: “Hmm.”

Jian Jing hugged the cat tightly. The knight was mighty and strong, with a proud look. It's not that he was unkind. But if he held the cat in his arms, he would still look like a weak, helpless and pitiful pudding.

It is fat and soft to hold.

Jiang Baiyan turned around and hugged the knight: "We have been abandoned."

The knight let out a long, very human sigh.

"It's just a joke." Jian Jing put Pudding on her legs, one in each hand, and touched his head.

The knight lay down silently.

Jiang Baiyan dodged his hand and raised his chin: "You can't touch me for nothing."

"You've changed."

"Teacher Jingjing, that's not what I meant." He said slowly, "Before, it's a life-saving favor, so I can do whatever I want, but now I have helped you, so I can't say it's even. For things like touching each other..."

He shook his head: "Just show your appreciation."

Jian Jing's mouth twitched: "You still clearly marked the price?"

"One hundred yuan." He said in the tone of a street vendor, "There is no work during the New Year, so we are clearing out our inventory. You can't lose money or be cheated if you buy. If you touch it, you will earn money."

Jian Jing: “…” She touched Pudding’s head, “Are you sleepy? Your nest is still there, go to sleep.”

As he spoke, he carried it to the old bedroom, where Pudding's favorite mat was still. Pudding had been sleepy for a long time, so he lay on the familiar mat and squinted his eyes soon.

Jiang Baiyan was still bargaining outside: "Ninety-eight, a bargain price, I want ninety-eight."

"Shut up." Jian Jing shouted, "Pudding is going to sleep."

‌ waved to the knight who followed him and touched his head: "It's time for you to go to bed. You are not allowed to bully Pudding. Do you understand?"

The knight called out softly, "Woof."

"So good." He guided the knights back to their new nest to sleep, turned off the headlights, and left a night light on for them.

The knight picked up the small blanket, hugged the little dinosaur doll, and lay down to sleep.

Jian Jing closed the door and said to Jiang Baiyan: "It's almost one o'clock, when will you come back..."

The sound stopped abruptly.

But after just three minutes of walking away, Jiang Baiyan actually fell asleep.

He sat on the floor with his legs stretched out, his head resting on the armrest of the sofa. He was probably just squinting, but as soon as his eyelids closed, his consciousness fell into a deep sleep.

Jian Jing squatted down and looked at him for a while, and found that he was really asleep, and his breathing became steady.

I guess he's been busy these past few days and must be exhausted.

I turned off the TV, put two cushions under his head and waist, and covered him with the newly bought plush blanket. Then I turned off the lights and went back to sleep.

The selfish setting off of fireworks is not allowed in Heping City. Without the sound of firecrackers, Jian Jing fell asleep quickly.

I dreamed of the original world.

During the Chinese New Year, my parents were silent. The TV was playing the Spring Festival Gala, but neither of them was watching. The skits and songs and dances were noisy, but the house was very quiet.

After ten minutes, my mother went to bed first, and my father smoked a cigarette and went to bed too.

All the dishes on the table were cold, and they were all my favorites.

There was a firecracker outside, and fireworks shot up into the sky, emitting colorful particles of light.

Then, I woke up.

The morning light was dim, and a ray of light shone through the heavy curtains. I pressed the switch, and the electric curtains slowly opened, revealing a vast expanse of white outside.

Jian Jing couldn't help but sigh softly.

He was in a daze for a while without any purpose, then after a while, he slowly got up and washed himself.

There was a scent wafting from outside, so she put on some facial cream and combed her hair as she went out.

Yesterday's messy coffee table has been cleaned up, and all the pots and pans have been stuffed into the dishwasher. The cat and dog's bowls are full of water, and the green plants on the balcony have all been watered and the soil has been loosened.

The winter sun slowly shines through the glass windows, the floor is smooth and clean, and the robot is diligently turning around in the corner.

"Good morning." Jiang Baiyan took out the waffles from the breakfast machine, squeezed jam, arranged them on a plate, cut an apple, poured the poached eggs and bacon from the frying pan, and made a cup of hot coffee.

He brought breakfast to the dining room and apologized with his hands clasped together: "I'm sorry, I fell asleep yesterday, please forgive me."

"It's okay, you're too tired." Jian Jing didn't blame him. The rehearsal for the Spring Festival Gala must be extremely intense. After a whole day of work and a flight, even the strongest person couldn't stand it. "Go home early and rest."

Jiang Baiyan said honestly: "Wait until Pudding finishes pooping and then leave."

Jian Jing picked up the waffles, which were soft and sweet. She couldn't help but say, "I only used this once after I bought it, and it turned out to be super unpalatable."

Jiang Baiyan: "Practice more and you will get better."

"It's difficult." Jian Jing complained, "I don't think I have a talent for cooking."

Jiang Baiyan scratched his face.

"Meow~" Pudding came out of the toilet and called his owner to clean up the poop.

"I'm here." Jiang Baiyan hurried to clean up, stuffed the cat into his bag, and said goodbye to Jian Jing, "Then I'll go back first. See you on... Valentine's Day?"

She was definitely going to the premiere of Rose Gold. Jian Jing nodded and said, "Thank you for breakfast."

Jiang Baiyan curved his eyebrows and said goodbye happily.

Jian Jing continued eating. The fried egg was in perfect shape, the bacon was cooked but not overcooked, and the milk foam in the coffee was more evenly distributed than what she usually made herself.

It's sour, it's really good to be able to cook.

[System: Limited pool is open, do you want to draw a card?]

Jian Jing: "Cough, cough, cough." She choked.

What can be drawn from the limited pool now

He wiped the coffee foam off the corner of his lips.

[Limited card draw]

[Extraction completed]

[Name: Limited Card: The Deliciousness of Death]

[Description: Delicious food has nothing to do with death, so why not make an exception? Every time you solve a case, you will gain the ability to cook a delicious dish. You can choose the dish yourself, with no limit on the type.]

[Note: Become a food detective~~]

Jian Jing: “???”

Is this even possible? Is this actually possible

This card is good.

What a pity that it’s Chinese New Year... No, no, what I mean is, I hope that during Chinese New Year, no incidents will happen.

Otherwise, someone will have to work overtime today and your dinner will be ruined.

Jian Jing had breakfast, walked the dog, and had a quick pizza for lunch. In the afternoon, she spent some time entertaining herself. She went out to watch a movie, which ended at four o'clock. She took the dog to eat at Ji'an.

Ji Yunyun came to open the door.

"Teacher Jian, come in quickly." He was very happy and took out a pair of new bunny slippers. "Newly bought."

She took out a wet wipe and said sweetly, "Is this a knight? Come, let's wipe your feet, okay?"

The knight turned his head and looked at Jian Jing. He raised his chin, and then he raised his four legs one by one, letting Ji Yunyun wipe the loose dirt off his feet.

Compared to her elder brother, Ji Yunyun is undoubtedly a more suitable host.

I was prepared and took out drinks and snacks to entertain him: "Teacher Jian, would you like some oranges? My dad's friend sent me a big box, and I can't even finish it."

When he got home, he quickly opened the box and took out two plump oranges, saying, "Hey, do you want some?"

Ji Feng poked his head out of the kitchen and rolled his eyes: "Be polite, who's hello?"

"Whoever agrees will get it." Ji Yunyun stuck out her tongue, not afraid of him.
