Abstinence Pei, don't be too sweet when chasing your wife

In the Pei family's living room, sunlight shone through the window onto the floor, forming spots of light.

Mother Pei couldn't wait to implement the New Year's Eve dinner plan that she and Pei Luochuan had carefully planned.

She knew that the key to this plan was to first convince Pei Luonan to accept the idea of inviting Gu Fanxing to her home for New Year's Eve dinner, and this was not an easy task.

However, Mother Pei had already thought of a strategy. She decided to first discuss the plan with the key figure, the old lady - her mother-in-law, and seek support.

Mother Pei came to her mother-in-law's room. The old lady was sitting in a rocking chair by the window, reading a newspaper wearing reading glasses.

Mother Pei knocked on the door gently and walked in with a smile: "Mom, are you busy?" The old lady put down the newspaper and looked up: "No, you want to talk to me about something, right?"

Mother Pei pulled a chair, sat next to the old lady, and told her and Pei Luochuan's plan in detail.

When the old lady heard this, her eyes sparkled with excitement and she nodded repeatedly.

"This is a great idea! I've long felt that Fanxing and Luonan are a good match, we have to find a way to bring them together. Your plan for the New Year's Eve dinner is great, I support you."

With the support of her mother-in-law, Pei's mother became more confident, and the two began to discuss how to fool Pei Luonan.

However, the plan encountered difficulties right at the beginning.

A distant relative of the Pei family suddenly called and said that the whole family would come to the Pei family to celebrate the New Year this year, which disrupted the plans of Pei's mother and the old lady.

The originally warm and romantic New Year's Eve dinner suddenly has several more people, the atmosphere will be different, and it may also make Gu Fanxing feel restrained.

Mother Pei frowned: "What should I do? Everything was planned well, but now it's all messed up."

The old lady was also a little worried: "Yes, with so many people here, Fanxing will definitely feel uncomfortable. Luonan was hesitant to begin with. If he knew about this situation, he would definitely not agree."

After thinking for a moment, Pei's eyes lit up: "Mom, I have an idea. We can discuss with our relatives and ask them to come and pay New Year's greetings on the second day of the New Year. This way, the New Year's Eve dinner will still be our own family, and the atmosphere can remain warm, and Fanxing won't feel too constrained when she comes."

The old lady nodded and praised: "This is a good idea, but will the relatives agree?"

Mother Pei immediately picked up the phone, dialed the relative's number, and said with a big smile on her face: "Hello, cousin, it's me. We are so happy that you are coming to celebrate the New Year. However, there are some special circumstances here on New Year's Eve this year. Do you think you can come to pay New Year's greetings on the second day of the New Year? Then we can have a good gathering and have a lively time."

The relative was a little confused: "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Mother Pei smiled and explained: "It's like this, we want to have a simple and warm New Year's Eve this year, and Luo Nan plans to bring his girlfriend back for the New Year's Eve dinner, we want to create a good atmosphere for the young couple."

When the relative heard this, he burst into laughter and said, "So that's how it is. All right, we'll come on the second day of the New Year. Don't scare away the future daughter-in-law."

Mother Pei thanked him repeatedly and breathed a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.

Mother Pei began to re-plan the arrangements for the New Year’s Eve dinner.

She called the servants at home to help decorate the restaurant.

The dining table was covered with a beautiful tablecloth and decorated with fresh flowers, including elegant baby's breath and pink roses, creating a romantic and warm atmosphere.

She also discussed the dishes for the New Year's Eve dinner with the chef, asking him to carefully prepare some traditional New Year's Eve dinner dishes, and at the same time, make sure to include the sweet and sour pork ribs that Gu Fanxing liked, as well as some exquisite snacks.

The chef carefully designed a menu based on Pei Ma's requirements to ensure that everyone's tastes would be satisfied.

Pei Luonan was working in the study when he heard a knock on the door. He said without even looking up, "Come in."

The door opened and Mother Pei and the old lady walked in.

Pei Luonan was a little confused: "Mom, grandma, why are you here?"

Mother Pei walked up to Pei Luonan with a smile on her face: "Son, let us tell you something. The New Year is coming soon, and our family always has a lively New Year's Eve dinner every year, and this year is no exception."

Pei Luonan nodded: "I know, you can arrange the New Year's Eve dinner."

Mother Pei glanced at the old lady, then said to Pei Luonan: "Son, look, you have a girlfriend now. You have to bring Fanxing to eat with you at the New Year's Eve dinner this year. It's great to have a family reunion."

Pei Luonan frowned: "Mom, New Year's Eve dinner is our family's business. Fanxing has her own family, and we... the situation is complicated, so this is not appropriate."

The old lady smiled and said, "Luonan, you don't understand.

Fanxing is so familiar with our family that in our eyes, she is like one of our own.

She was so lonely during the New Year holidays.

What would she think if you didn't invite her? Our Pei family has always been hospitable. It's normal for you to bring your girlfriend home for the New Year's Eve dinner."

Pei Luonan hesitated: "But, Mom, Fanxing has a lot of things to do now, and I don't want to disrupt her rhythm. Besides, our relationship is not yet to the point where I can take her home for the New Year at will."

Mother Pei patted Pei Luonan's shoulder: "Son, don't say but. If you don't invite Fanxing, she will think you don't value her. This is such a good opportunity to take your relationship to the next level. You don't want your relationship with Fanxing to remain stagnant, do you? Besides, do you have the heart to let Fanxing spend the New Year alone?"

Seeing Pei Luonan was so stubborn, the old lady pretended to be angry and said, "Luonan, why are you so stubborn? Fanxing is a good girl, you can't miss her. Our Pei family has always been warm and hospitable. It's normal for you to bring your girlfriend home for the New Year's Eve dinner."

Seeing Pei Luonan still hesitating, the old lady continued, "Luonan, you can't always be so hesitant. When it comes to love, sometimes you have to be brave. If you really like Fanxing, you should let her integrate into our family. The New Year's Eve dinner is a good opportunity, you can't let this opportunity slip away."

Pei Luonan fell into deep thought. In his heart, he actually hoped that Gu Fanxing could come and spend a warm New Year with his family. He was just worried that Gu Fanxing would refuse.

Mother Pei saw that he was wavering and continued, "Son, just listen to us. We will arrange everything and won't let Fanxing have any trouble. Just agree to it."

Pei Luonan raised his head, looked at the expectant eyes of his mother and grandmother, and was a little shaken: "Mom, grandma, let me think about it again. I really have to think it over carefully. I can't bring trouble to Fanxing because of my impulsiveness."

Mother Pei smiled and said, "Okay, think about it carefully, but don't think too long, time waits for no one. We have to prepare early. If Fanxing agrees, we have to decorate the house warmly and romantically to let her feel the warmth of home."

In addition to his busy work, Pei Luonan would unconsciously think of Gu Fanxing.

He imagined the scene if Gu Fanxing came home for New Year's Eve dinner, she would smile under the warm light and chat happily with her family.

If he could really have further development with Gu Fanxing, that would be what he had always dreamed of.

However, he cannot only care about his own thoughts and ignore Gu Fanxing's thoughts and feelings.

Although he had waited for her for so long, he couldn't be selfish, otherwise he would scare her away.

As time went by, an atmosphere of expectation and some panic permeated the Pei family. Everyone was preparing for this special New Year's Eve dinner, waiting for Pei Luonan's final decision, hoping that this night could become a new starting point for a beautiful love story.
