Su Nanxing didn't train after his injury until just before the finals. After the finals, he unsurprisingly won the championship, and then left the national team.

The New Year is just around the corner. Today is Lunar New Year's Eve, and Mo Nanyu has returned to the Mo family's old residence, so Su Nanxing will have to cook for herself tonight.

Around 4 PM, Su Nanxing went out to buy some groceries and returned home to find a WeChat message from Mo Nanyu: "Happy New Year's Eve! What are you doing?" Su Nanxing smiled and replied, "Happy New Year's Eve. Just went out to buy groceries and I'm going to cook something."

Mo Nanyu sat in the garden, looked at the message, thought for a moment, and replied, "Alone?" Su Nanxing replied with "Mm." Upon seeing the message, Mo Nanyu did not reply but got up and walked into the hall.

Several people were discussing something in the hall. Mo Nanyu sat down on the sofa and asked, "Mom, I want to bring someone back. She's spending the New Year alone." The others immediately stopped and asked curiously, "Who is it? A girl?"

Mo Nanyu smiled and said, "Yes, a girl. You should know her. She's Su Nanxing, the champion of the winter sports competition a few days ago." Mo's mother laughed and said, "The girl who won the gold medal? Don't be silly, do you think she'd come back with you?" Mo Nanyu smiled and said, "She's the neighbor I was talking about. If you agree, I'll go and bring her back."

Mother Mo laughed, "Of course I agree! It's rare for you to bring someone back, how could I disagree?" Mo Nanyu smiled, "There's one more thing. After dinner, aren't we having a barbecue tonight? I'm planning to confess my feelings, so I'd like to ask Mother to help me plan it out." Mother Mo laughed, "Alright, alright, I'll arrange everything perfectly for you."

Mo Nanyu smiled and said, "Then I'll go pick her up. Oh, by the way, she likes seafood, especially shrimp. Don't peel them, wait for me to come back and cook them. She likes my cooking." Mo's mother said, "Okay, I'll wait for you to come back. Hurry up!"

Mo Nanyu drove away from the Mo residence...

Su Nanxing had just put the rice in the pot to cook, washed the vegetables and pork and put them aside, then went to wash the fruit and put it on the coffee table. More than an hour later, just as Su Nanxing put the food and rice on the table, the doorbell rang.

Su Nanxing asked in confusion, "Huh? Who's here?" She walked to the door, opened it, and saw the person inside. "Mo Nanyu? What brings you here? Didn't you go home?" Mo Nanyu smiled and asked, "Have you eaten?"

Su Nanxing walked back and sat down at the dining table, saying, "Here, I was just about to eat." Mo Nanyu looked at her, frowned, and said, "Eating so little? And so much of it is vegetables." Su Nanxing replied, "Isn't there meat? Besides, I don't know how to make anything complicated."

Mo Nanyu asked, "Want to come to my house for the New Year?" Su Nanxing shook her head and said, "No way, it's too embarrassing. I'm fine on my own. It's not like it's the first time. I've always been alone abroad." Mo Nanyu said, "You haven't fulfilled that promise from the boxing match yet, have you?"

Su Nanxing said, "No, no, it's so embarrassing. It would be so awkward to have a stranger like me join your family reunion." Mo Nanyu said, "Not at all. I told my family they all welcome you. We agreed before that anything is fine, so I want you to come to my house for the New Year."

Su Nanxing looked helpless and said, "Alright, alright, a gentleman's word is his bond. Fine, I'll go then. But what about all these vegetables?" Mo Nanyu said, "Put them in the fridge." Su Nanxing said, "Then go ahead."

Mo Nanyu smiled and said, "Okay." After putting the vegetables away, the two went out and returned to the Mo residence about an hour and a half later. Su Nanxing, sitting in the car, looked at the architecture of the Mo residence and said, "Waqu, your family is so rich!" Mo Nanyu smiled and said, "It's alright, let's get out of the car."

Su Nanxing pulled Mo Nanyu back, saying, "Wait a minute, let me calm down and mentally prepare myself." Mo Nanyu replied helplessly, "Okay." Ten minutes later, Su Nanxing said, "Isn't it inappropriate for me to come empty-handed?" Mo Nanyu said, "No, it's fine as long as you're here."

Su Nanxing said, "Alright, let's get out of the car." The two got out of the car, and Mo Nanyu took Su Nanxing's hand and walked inside. In the living room, Mo Nanyu said, "Mom and Dad, I'm home."

Everyone turned to look at her. Su Nanxing smiled and said, "Hello, Grandpa and Grandma, hello, uncles and aunts." Mo's mother stepped forward and took Su Nanxing's hand, saying, "Nanxing, right? Come sit here. Just stay here with me, don't be shy."

Su Nanxing smiled and said, "Thank you, Auntie." Then the group chatted around Su Nanxing, while the boys in the family went to the kitchen to cook.

In the kitchen...

Mr. Mo: "You like her?" Mo Nanyu: "Yes." Mr. Mo: "How long have you known her?" Mo Nanyu, while washing vegetables, said: "More than three months." Mr. Mo: "So you disappeared for more than a month just to be with her?" Mo Nanyu hummed in agreement. Mr. Mo laughed: "You brat, you're just like I was when I was pursuing your mother."

dinner......

Everyone was happily eating at the table. Su Nanxing sat next to Mo Nanyu, who listened to the conversation while peeling shrimp for her.

Grandma Mo smiled and said, "Su girl, don't eat too much. There will be barbecue later, and Nan Yu will grill extra for you." Su Nanxing smiled and said, "Okay, Grandma."

Mo Nanyu turned to the side, lowered his head, and asked in a low voice, "What do you want to eat? I'll get it for you." Su Nanxing replied, "I want to eat fish." Mo Nanyu smiled and said, "Okay." After saying that, he got up, picked up a piece of fish, removed the bones, and put it in Su Nanxing's bowl.

Su Nanxing smiled and said, "Thank you."

After dinner, Mo Nanyu took Su Nanxing to the back garden. Su Nanxing said, "Mo Nanyu, you don't really need to worry about me. I'm used to being alone." Mo Nanyu sat down next to Su Nanxing and said, "No matter how much I want to leave you, you deserve the best things in this world. Don't deny yourself. I don't know what you were like before, but as long as I'm by your side, I'll make you happy every day."

Su Nanxing smiled but didn't answer. After a long while, Su Nanxing said, "Mo Nanyu." Mo Nanyu hummed in response. Su Nanxing continued, "What would you do if I said I like you?" Mo Nanyu smiled but didn't answer, but inwardly he was overjoyed.

Su Nanxing smiled and turned to look into the distance. Around 10 o'clock, everyone had a barbecue on the rooftop. Mo Nanyu went to light the fireworks. Su Nanxing looked up at the fireworks, and Mo Nanyu suddenly disappeared. Su Nanxing didn't notice and kept looking at the fireworks.

After a while, when the fireworks bloomed again, a voice called out, "Su Nanxing!" Su Nanxing turned around and saw Mo Nanyu holding a bouquet of flowers. He walked up to Su Nanxing, knelt on one knee, and said, "Su Nanxing, didn't you ask me what I would do if you liked me? Now I'm telling you, I like you too, so will you be my girlfriend? I promise I'll only ever love you in this life."

Su Nanxing looked at him in surprise, then said, "Okay." Mo Nanyu stood up, put the ring on Su Nanxing's finger, and then asked, "Then, girlfriend, can I kiss you?" Su Nanxing smiled and said, "Of course."

Then Mo Nanyu kissed her, and the people around them set off firecrackers. After a while, Mo Nanyu took Su Nanxing's hand and sat her down. Mo Nanyu grilled some skewers and handed them to Su Nanxing.

Grandma Mo smiled and said, "My dear granddaughter-in-law, eat more. Look how thin you are." Su Nanxing blushed and said, "Okay, Grandma."

As the clock struck midnight, Mo Nanyu smiled and said, "Nanxing, Happy New Year!" Su Nanxing smiled and replied, "Happy New Year!"
