Chapter 150 -150: Celebrating the New Year Together

“She’s different,” Luo Qinghe rolled his eyes, visibly annoyed as he pushed aside the branches blocking his path: “To be honest, I’ve never really pursued her, so it can’t count as my failure.”

“Fine, fine, let’s say you’re right,” Luo Qiluo tried to hold back her laughter, solemnly saying, “On the second day of the New Year, our Li Family is hosting a banquet. Bring that girl over for me to see.”

“I’ve said there isn’t even a hint of anything happening yet,” Luo Qinghe was close to wearing his opposition on his face.

But his opposition was somewhat different; it was more about being embarrassed, like a boy experiencing the dawn of feelings, blushing at a simple joke.

Luo Qiluo patted Luo Qinghe’s shoulder, her laugh warm and harmless: “A man should not be so hesitant. Your brother is bringing his girlfriend home this year for me to see. If you don’t bring that girl home, after the New Year, I’ll make you go work at the company.”

“Mom, can’t you threaten me in a different way?” Luo Qinghe sighed helplessly, his face clearly expressing his turmoil.

“No, this method works best on you,” Luo Qiluo decisively said, her beautiful face blossoming into a smile: “I’m going to prepare the meeting gift. You sort out your own affairs.”

…

Ever since her parents passed away, Fu Han had always kept her distance from lively occasions, fearing that after the festivities, she would face the dreadful silence alone.

And what’s more solitary than the quiet following the blare of fireworks on New Year’s Eve?

It was already two or three in the morning, the world was terrifyingly silent, and Fu Han even felt as if she was the only person left in the world.

She tossed and turned in her warm, soft bed. Even though she was so sleepy she couldn’t keep her eyes open around eleven o’clock, now that she was actually in bed, she couldn’t fall asleep.

The words He Xing said when he confessed kept reappearing in Fu Han’s mind, and thinking back on them now, they seemed almost surreal.

She touched her chest where the delicate lotus necklace lay, warmed by her body temperature, feeling warm to the touch.

“Maybe… I should give it another try,” Fu Han said, starting to laugh at herself.

This sentence was like a watershed moment; the feeling that she was the only person in the world dissipated. Suddenly, the villa felt warm, alive, and once again became the last haven in the depths of her heart.

When Fu Han woke up, it was past noon. She hadn’t woken up naturally, but had been startled awake by Bai Wei’s earth-shaking pounding on the door.

Dappled light peeked through the gaps in the curtains, casting diamond-like reflections on the floor, so blinding that she couldn’t open her eyes.

Fortunately, she wouldn’t get lost in this room even if she closed her eyes. She haphazardly threw on a robe, and with her eyes still shut, opened the door: “Bai Wei, knocking on the door so early in the morning is really too much.”

“Sleeping in on the first day of the New Year, careful, or you might be lazy all year,” Bai Wei felt no guilt for waking someone up, instead she shouted louder and even went straight to shaking Fu Han: “Wake up, wake up, let’s go shopping.”

“I’m not going,” Fu Han had always been disinterested in shopping since she was young, not to mention she was still groggy.

“No, you have to come,” Bai Wei pulled at Fu Han with all her might, stammering, “Luo Qinghe invited me to their family gathering tomorrow, and… and I didn’t bring any formal wear, you have to come with me to buy some.”

Fu Han finally opened her eyes wide, giving Bai Wei a once over to confirm she wasn’t lying, then said calmly, “Are you an idiot? Just ask Luo Qinghe to go with you, then you’d have one more opportunity to see them.”

“Then how can I dazzle everyone when I see him tomorrow? There’d be no suspense left,” Bai Wei argued adamantly, her face already flushed.

Before Fu Han could respond, Bai Wei spoke up again, “Also, if it weren’t for you and He Xing, I wouldn’t be in Nuan City, completely troubled over meeting my future in-laws. Now that your issue is resolved, are you going to ignore me? That’d be really ungrateful of you.”

“You win, okay? I’ll go, isn’t that enough?” Fu Han was completely awake now, and she pushed Bai Wei out of the room: “Let me get changed, wait half an hour for me.”

Bai Wei’s heart blossomed with joy, but turned to see He Xing’s door open. She stuck out her tongue and chuckled, “Luo Qinghe is taking me to his family gathering. Jealous?”

“What’s there to be jealous of,” He Xing replied while fastening the buttons on his shirt: “I’ve accompanied Fu Han to all of her gatherings ever since we were kids.”

Bai Wei, who was still wearing a smug look, gritted her teeth so hard they could have cracked upon hearing that, wishing she could punch the smile right off He Xing’s face.

In less than half an hour, Fu Han was ready. She wore a pink short down jacket over a white fleece-lined hoodie, paired with pencil pants and knee-high leather boots, her waist-length seaweed hair casually draped over her shoulders.

This outfit was casual and comfortable. Even if she took off the down jacket indoors, she still looked great. Most importantly, the combination of white and pink showcased Fu Han’s youthful charm without a doubt.

Bai Wei’s eyes never left Fu Han, and she sincerely admired her, “Fu Han, you truly are a Photographer, your sense of color coordination is absolutely perfect. If my stylist had your taste, people wouldn’t criticize my outfits online anymore.”

Fu Han was about to put her phone into her woven bag when she paused, her smile deepening, “If you’re up for a part-time job, I could help you coordinate your outfits in my free time.”

“When did I not realize you loved money so much?” He Xing popped up out of nowhere, mussed Fu Han’s hair, and naturally took her small bag, taking her hand and heading out, “The car’s heater has been on for a while, we can leave now.”

“You’re coming too?” Fu Han’s eyes widened in surprise.

“An extra person provides more opinions, and men see things differently than women,” Bai Wei chuckled slyly, her laughter betraying her nervousness.

Bai Wei, having been a star for years, had made quite a sum of money, but her parents managed it all.

And tomorrow would be her first time meeting Luo Qinghe’s parents, so it mattered a great deal to her.

She estimated the money she had would only be enough for a nice-looking gown, but for a gown to really stand out, jewelry was essential.

The He Family had many pieces of jewelry, each one a fine example.

There you have it, Bai Wei saw an opportunity with He Xing. She used helping He Xing win back Fu Han as an excuse for He Xing to let her borrow jewelry from the He Family’s safe, and in turn, He Xing got to go shopping with them that afternoon.

All in all, it was a win-win deal. He Xing and Bai Wei got what they wanted, and even Fu Han was happy because He Xing would be with them.
