In previous years, Su Dahai would always bring his wife and children back to the countryside to have a reunion dinner.
But this year, because his wife and his family had been constantly arguing, he stayed in the city with his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Feeling guilty towards his parents, he suddenly received a call from Su Yi and thought it was his family coming over.
He was caught off guard when he heard that his house had been robbed again.
Su Dahai was completely dumbfounded, “Stolen again? What else could there be to steal in our house?”
Su Yi twitched the corner of his mouth, “Big brother, you’ll know when you go back. By the way, there’s something else you need to be prepared for.”
Then, Su Yi told him about the Sun family coming to their house and the whole village discovering the affair between Su Erqiang and Sun Dayou.
“Anyway, that’s how the scene was at that time. As for how those two feel, I don’t know. Big brother, you can go back and ask yourself. Mother and Father are so angry that they can’t even drink water now.”
Su Dahai was full of question marks, feeling that this was all beyond his comprehension.
After a while, he finally reacted, “Then where are you calling me from?”
Su Yi paused for a moment, “I forgot to tell you, I’ve already moved out. I’m just calling to tell you what’s going on at home. I’m not going back to that house.”
Su Dahai, hearing that Su Yi was leaving, became anxious and his voice rose several octaves, “How can you leave at this crucial moment? What about all the problems at home?”
Su Yi couldn’t help but scoff, “When things are good, I’m not needed. Now that there are problems, I can’t leave?”
“Su Dahai, I hope this is our last conversation. Don’t contact me again, no matter what.”
With that, she hung up the phone decisively.
After hanging up on Su Dahai, Su Yi picked up the phone again.
This time, she planned to call Zhou Jinchuan.
To tell him that her affairs were all settled and she would be taking the train back tomorrow morning.
As soon as the phone rang, Su Yi’s heart skipped a beat.
Thinking of hearing Zhou Jinchuan’s voice soon, she inexplicably felt a little nervous.
She quickly ran through what she wanted to say in her mind several times.
Until the phone rang several times, but no one answered.
Su Yi unwillingly called again, still no answer.
Her heart sank, Zhou Jinchuan and the children were not there, where could they have gone?
Su Yi thought quickly for a moment and remembered Auntie Yao saying that they would be staying at the military base for the New Year this year and not returning to their hometown.
So she dialed Auntie Yao’s number again.
As soon as the phone was connected, the two exchanged pleasantries happily.
Su Yi also wished Auntie Yao’s family a happy New Year.
Immediately afterwards, she casually mentioned that she had called next door but no one answered.
Auntie Yao immediately explained, “Commander Zhou and the others went out, they haven’t come back for several days!”
Su Yi’s breath hitched, “They haven’t come back for several days?”
Auntie Yao hummed, “Yeah, they said they were taking the kids out for a walk.”
Su Yi hummed in response and said a few more random things before hanging up the phone.
She went out and walked aimlessly on the street alone.
Her mind kept circling around where Zhou Jinchuan could have gone? Could he be in danger?
But thinking about Zhou Jinchuan’s skills, it shouldn’t be possible.
Could it be that after leaving here last time, they really went to play nearby?
Or could it be—
As she thought, an idea suddenly popped into Su Yi’s mind.
Zhou Jinchuan never left!
When she had promised to take the train back on the morning of the first day of the New Year, Zhou Jinchuan’s expression had been a little unusual.
Su Yi hadn’t thought much of it at the time, maybe he was already thinking about staying and waiting for her.
Thinking about this, Su Yi immediately ran towards the train station.
If he was waiting for her, they would definitely be staying at a hotel near the train station.
Su Yi ran while asking people about the largest hotel near the train station.
When she saw the hotel in front of her, Su Yi felt her heart pounding.
She walked towards the entrance step by step.
As she reached the entrance, she saw a figure walking towards her from a distance.
As the figure grew closer and clearer,
When she recognized who it was, Su Yi’s eyes welled up with tears uncontrollably.
She suppressed her pounding heart and instinctively walked towards him.
Zhou Jinchuan on the other side hadn’t expected Su Yi to run out of the house, he just thought the figure looked familiar.
When he saw clearly that it was Su Yi, he also strode towards her.
Although it was only evening, the sky was almost dark.
Plus, everyone was at home having their New Year’s Eve dinner.
There were very few pedestrians on the street.
Only the snowflakes were falling again.
Su Yi walked up to Zhou Jinchuan, panting, and asked, “Why didn’t you go back?”
Zhou Jinchuan smiled faintly and replied, “It’s just the three of us, it doesn’t matter where we celebrate the New Year.”
“This place is closer to you, in case you need anything, it’s easier for us to get there.”
Su Yi saw that he spoke lightly, but every word landed heavily on her heart.
Tears welled up in her eyes, threatening to spill.
She wanted to say something, but her throat was choked, unable to utter a single word.
Seeing her like this, Zhou Jinchuan was a little flustered, and hurriedly asked, “Did your family bully you again? Why did you run out alone on New Year’s Eve?”
Su Yi couldn’t help but burst into laughter, “I bullied them all, and then I ran out.”
“I thought I was going to spend the New Year alone today, I hadn’t figured out where to go yet, and then I bumped into you here. It’s so good.”
Seeing that she wasn’t being bullied, Zhou Jinchuan couldn’t help but smile.
The look in his eyes was unprecedentedly straightforward and fervent.
“Silly girl, you’re not being bullied, why are you crying? You scared me.”
Su Yi sniffed, “I’m just too happy.”
Zhou Jinchuan sighed inwardly, instinctively reaching out to help her wipe away her tears.
But afraid of upsetting her, he forced himself to retract his outstretched finger.
He then moved to the side and gently brushed the snow off her shoulders and hair.
“The snow is getting heavier, come back with me.”
With that, he took Su Yi’s hand and went back to the hotel by the roadside.
He checked Su Yi into a room at the front desk, and specifically asked for the room next to his own.
As they went upstairs, Zhou Jinchuan joked, “Now that you’re here, I can finally sleep on the bed. I’ve been sleeping on the floor for the past few days.”
Although Su Yi understood what he meant,
She still smiled a little awkwardly, those words were too easy to misinterpret!
As soon as they entered the room, Ye Xiaowu and Ye Nuan Nuan, upon seeing Su Yi, immediately ran towards her.
They even forgot to put on their shoes.
“Sister Su, you finally came! We waited for you for so long!”
The two of them excitedly pulled Su Yi, jumping and skipping.
Finally, Zhou Jinchuan stopped them, “She must be tired from traveling so far, let her sit down and rest.”
Then, he poured her a cup of hot water, “You’ve been out in the snow for a long time, drink some hot water to warm up.”
“Today is New Year’s Eve, rest for a while, and then we’ll go out to eat a big meal.”
Su Yi took the water and nodded with a smile, “Okay!”
The two children also excitedly began to find their new clothes to change into.
Zhou Jinchuan hurriedly shouted at them, “It’s snowing outside, wear more clothes!”
Then, he took a red woolen coat from the side and walked over.
“I bought this on a whim, I don’t know if you like it.”
Su Yi was stunned, she had new clothes to wear?
