Chapter 187 Ways to Stay Up Late on New Year’s Eve.
That evening on New Year’s Eve, after having dinner with the butler, Shen Zhiyi received a call from Duan Jiaze.
"Auntie~" Xiaoshi called sweetly, his tone especially soft, "Happy New Year!"
Shen Zhiyi had already sent Xiaoshi a red envelope in the morning and had also sent him a New Year’s gift.
"Happy New Year," Shen Zhiyi said, holding the phone with the camera only showing herself.
"Auntie," Duan Jiaze assumed Pei Yu was not around and complained to her, "I originally wanted to come back to the country for the New Year, but Uncle wouldn’t allow it, thinking I’m annoying. Otherwise, I’d be with you right now."
His family had settled abroad for many years and actually rarely returned, but this year was different. Duan Jiaze had been mentioning wanting to return to the country to find Shen Zhiyi early on, so his mother brought it up to Pei Yu, and as one might expect, Pei Yu didn’t even hesitate to reject the idea immediately.
He must be crazy to think of arranging a troublemaker for his own and Shen Zhiyi’s time alone.
Shen Zhiyi was unaware of this matter as Pei Yu hadn’t mentioned it to her, and she naturally assumed that Xiaoshi would be spending New Year’s with his parents.
"It’s okay," she comforted Xiaoshi, "you’ll be back in a few days."
In a few more days, it would be their wedding, and Duan Jiaze was sure to return to the country for it.
"Then Auntie," Duan Jiaze pressed his face against the camera, innocently asking, "Can I sleep with you after I return to the country? Just like before."
