Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Compared to the New Year’s Eve dinner, lunch was even more sumptuous.
The group of people sat around the dining table, looking very lively.
Han Wenhao and Wen Nanxian, in particular, were on ass-kissing mode the entire time, praising Gu Wan’an’s good cooking skills all the time.
Gong Mingye’s heart was very flattered, proud, and happy.
However, his mouth was hard, “Noisy.”
Qiao Yi didn’t expect to meet Gong Yifeng here. She didn’t even dare to raise her head, feeling shy and nervous.
There were Han Wenhao and Wen Nanxian, the two clowns, and Gong Yifeng, the silly and sweet boy.
Therefore, the atmosphere at the dining table was quite good.
Not only was there no coldness or awkwardness, but it was instead relaxed and pleasant, with light laughter from time to time.
The lunch ended happily.
Gu Wan’an and Qiao Yi carried the plates back to the kitchen, rolled up their sleeves, and were about to reach into the sink.
However, they heard Gong Mingye say; “Apologise, freeload a lunch on the way, and then watch TV in peace, do you guys deserve it?”
Han Wenhao and Wen Nanxian looked at each other.
They felt like they were sitting on pins and needles.
Where…Did They offend this old man again?
Gong Mingye raised his eyebrows and said; “The Gong family does not have the habit of letting women wash dishes.”
Upon hearing this, the two of them instantly understood.
It wasn’t that the Gong family didn’t have the habit of letting women wash the dishes. This was clearly because he felt sorry for his wife!
Therefore, Han Wenhao and Wen Nanxian squeezed into the kitchen.
“Little sister-in-law, go out and rest, we’ll do the washing.”
Gu Wan’an frowned. “You guys should go out. How can I let the guests wash the dishes?”
“I’m not a guest, I’m a sinner, little sister-in-law, please give me a chance to perform!”
Both of them called her sister-in-law and pushed Gu Wan’an out of the kitchen.
“Gong Mingye…Letting the guests wash the dishes during the New Year… Isn’t it a little rude?”
Gong Mingye raised his eyebrows and said calmly, “It’s alright. They volunteered?”
“Alright then.”
The three of them stayed until the afternoon before leaving.
When it got dark, Gu Wan’an took out the fireworks she had bought in advance.
Gong Mingye glanced faintly, not interested.
“Let’s go set off fireworks together?”
“Not interested.”
“It’s New Year’s Eve and you still have to read documents. It’s too miserable. It’s indeed the life of an old man.”
Gong Mingye gritted his teeth; “Shen Ziqing!”
The last word he wanted to hear right now was ‘old’!
“Haha, getting angry will make you age faster!”
Gong Mingye narrowed his eyes dangerously and said, “Come here.”
“What for?” Gu Wan’an asked curiously.
“Here’s a gift for you.”
“Tsk, you still want to lie to me…You clearly want to beat me up…”
“Haha, your expression is so ugly. 1 guessed right!”
“I never hit women,” Gong Mingye said exasperated.
“Who said that, you clearly spanked me last time, and several times at that.”
Gong Mingye didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. The corners of his mouth twitched.
This was considered a beating?
“So, I definitely won’t fall for it!”
As soon as she finished speaking, a phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, the smile on Gu Wan’an’s face instantly disappeared.
Noticing the change in her expression, Gong Mingye raised his eyebrows.
She picked up the call and suppressed her nausea. She squeezed out a word from her throat. “Mom.”
“What time will you be back tomorrow?” Lin Lanfang answered.
“I don’t know.”
“Your dad is back. Come back early tomorrow.”
Gu Wan’an frowned and subconsciously refused. “I have something to do tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow is the second day of the new year. What’s there to do? Besides, this is your first year of marriage. It’s time to go back and visit your relatives.”
Gu Wan’an remained silent.
“Even if there’s an event, you have to reject it or take leave. I’ll pick you up at the Gong family tomorrow morning..”
