Jiangcheng

At noon on New Year's Eve, the streets are decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and every corner of the city is full of noise and laughter. The atmosphere of the New Year is rich and festive.

Zhou Ruishen cooked a bag of glutinous rice balls at noon according to his family's custom of eating glutinous rice balls on New Year's Eve. He put the plate on the table absentmindedly and picked up his phone to check. There was still no reply from Jiang Jiang.

Thinking of the girl being so heartless, he felt sad and disappointed, and he was not in the mood to eat the glutinous rice balls.

He opened a bottle of wine himself, poured a full glass, and drank it in one gulp.

Where did he go wrong?

Shen Xinyue came to Jiangcheng to seek refuge with him, couldn't he take care of her?

Jiang Jiang was obviously very considerate before, and he accepted her because he liked her simplicity and kindness. Why can't he understand him from his perspective now?

He drank one glass after another and soon drank half of the bottle.

"Dong dong dong!"

Suddenly there was a knock on the door. He frowned, not knowing who would come to him, and got up to open the door.

Opening the door, Shen Xinyue was standing outside, holding a thermos bucket in her hand, smiling gently, "Have you eaten? I made a few dishes myself and brought them to you to try."

Zhou Ruishen said in surprise, "You didn't go home?"

"I haven't bought a ticket. It's too difficult to get tickets at the end of the year!" Shen Xinyue walked inside carrying a thermos bucket and gave him a soft look, "So I can only stay for the New Year. I know you haven't left either, so come here and talk to me. Let’s celebrate the New Year together, senior brother.”

While she was talking, she had already walked to the restaurant, looked at the cold glutinous rice balls and half a bottle of wine on the table, and chuckled, "You don't plan to eat this for lunch, do you?"

Zhou Ruishen said, "I'm not very hungry, so I can eat whatever I want."

"Today is New Year's Eve, how can we eat casually?" Shen Xinyue smiled softly, took out the food from the thermos bucket and put it on the table, "They are all our hometown dishes, and they are still hot. We just treat them as going home to celebrate the New Year. !”

Looking at his hometown dishes, Zhou Ruishen felt a touch of warmth and New Year flavor, "Thank you, Xinyue!"

"Why are you so polite? I'm in Jiangcheng and you're the one taking care of me?" Shen Xinyue took the chopsticks and said, "Senior brother, it's time to eat!"

Zhou Ruishen sat across from her and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to cook so well, you are so ingenious!"

"If you live alone, of course you have to learn how to cook, so that you can eat whatever you want!"

Shen Xinyue served Zhou Ruishen some food and looked at him expectantly, "Try it quickly and rate it for me!"

Zhou Ruishen ate the food and nodded, "It's delicious, very authentic!"

Shen Xinyue immediately smiled happily and said, "Thank you, senior brother, for the compliment!"

She glanced at the half bottle of wine next to her, took a wine glass, poured the wine, and said with a smile, "Today we are celebrating the New Year, I will first toast to senior brother, thank you for taking care of me in the past year!"

Zhou Ruishen picked up the wine glass and clinked it with her, "Yes, you have always supported me at work, and I want to thank you too!"

The two drank wine, and Shen Xinyue poured them two glasses of wine again, "With this second glass of wine, I wish my senior brother a prosperous business, abundant financial resources, and all your wishes come true in the coming year!"

Zhou Rui smiled deeply and said, "There are quite a lot of words."

As they spoke, the two drank another drink.

Shen Xinyue continued to pick up food for him, "Try this, it's my first time making it, I called my mother to ask, it should be a success!"

"Okay, you can eat it yourself, don't always take care of me!"
