Chapter 643: New Year's Eve for a Family of Three 4
That night, the sleet and snow never stopped. Yi Xiangxi lay on the sofa and listened to the deafening sound of firecrackers outside. Finally, the sound of firecrackers slowly became sparse and completely entered the second half of the night.
With central air conditioning and full heating, the equipment of this five-star hotel apartment was really worthy of its high rent and property management fees. He sighed, poor Qiao Xiaomai, for so many years, no matter what happened, he never completely collapsed
, is the collapse related to her mentality?
These days, he has been always on tenterhooks, fearing that she would collapse again and it would be over. Even though he knew she was hiding here, he never dared to come up rashly. Suddenly he remembered those days, and the days when she didn't eat or drink at home.
Is it because now that I have a newbie, there is room for redemption?
Fortunately, there is still a novice.
There has never been a time when I have been so sincere in thanking God and fate - always opening a door in the most desperate moments.
Xiaobai, she has always been the door, hasn't she?
He was lying comfortably. In the room, the whispers of mother and daughter had subsided. He guessed that they had both fallen asleep.
Amidst the sporadic sound of firecrackers, he remembered that this was the busiest New Year's Eve he had ever lived, and also the most chaotic year. However, it was only in the second half of the night, when everyone was quiet, that he felt relaxed and at ease.
Is it the child who is cured of his illness? Is it the woman in the house? Is it that they finally spent New Year's Eve under the same roof with him?
Even though this was not in her own home, even though she was full of resentment, even though what she did was not so glorious - why was she still so happy and fulfilled deep down in her heart?
He is an extremely sensitive person, and his sleep quality is extremely poor. He will suffer from insomnia all night long at the slightest disturbance. But this night, he slept extremely soundly and sweetly. Even the crackling firecrackers at dawn were not heard.
can disturb him.
Maybe I had been working on it for too long last night, so when I woke up, it was almost one o'clock in the afternoon.
Qiao Xiaomai opened her eyes. The child had just woken up. His little hands were around her neck, his face was close to hers, and he asked delicately: "Sister Mai, have we slept until noon?"
The warmth from his face spread throughout his body, and the worries and emptiness of many days were swept away.
"Sister Mai, I'm a little hungry. Are you hungry?"
Only then did she remember that today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. She immediately got up and said, "Xiao Bai, wake up. I will take you to eat something good today."
"Okay."
She hurriedly dressed her child, and was stunned as soon as she opened the door and went out. She saw that the dining table in the living room was already filled with steaming dishes, four cold dishes, four hot dishes, and two types of soups, one of which was very exquisite.
A can of rock sugar, snow pear and Sichuan clam soup, plus a beautifully put together fruit plate.
Xiaobai cheered and ran over: "Dad, have you prepared the meal? There are so many dishes."
"Dad prepared it early in the morning. Come and try dad's craftsmanship..."
"Wow, there are so many, Sister Mai, look, a lot of dishes are cooked by dad..."
Yi Xiangxi wiped his hands and put the dishes and chopsticks in place. Seeing the child cheering for joy, it was obvious that her illness was 90% better. He also saw that she was dressed in new clothes. Sure enough, it was a new pink down jacket, new pants, and even small leather boots.
They are all ocher red, with a flower embroidered with exquisite silk thread on them.
