After finishing our New Year's Eve dinner, we watched the Spring Festival Gala as usual.

Before midnight, Luo Yusheng was already in bed.

Because of her busy schedule in the past few days, she has gotten used to staying up late and is now wide awake.

She stared at the ceiling, her mind filled with complex emotions.

After hesitating for a moment, she opened the chat box and considered whether or not to send Jiang Moche a blessing.

With the new year about to begin, Luo Yusheng hesitated to press send.

Perhaps it was a telepathic connection, but as soon as midnight struck, two identical messages appeared on the phone screen.

The next second, Jiang Moche's phone rang.

Fireworks are not allowed in the city, and the environment in which the two were talking on the phone was so quiet that even their breathing could be heard clearly.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Moche spoke first.

"Sheng Sheng, Happy New Year."

Luo Yusheng chuckled softly: "Happy New Year."

This is the first New Year that the two of them have spent since they started working, which makes it particularly meaningful.

"Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

Over the years, Luo Yusheng's physical condition has not been very good, and her resistance is poor, so she gets sick every few days.

Luo Yusheng told the truth: "I can't sleep."

Her mind was filled with images of Jiang Moche, how could she possibly fall asleep?

Moreover, they hadn't been in contact for a while, and with Wei Xue's appearance at the hospital that day, Luo Yusheng couldn't help but think about this whenever she had a moment to herself.

After being puzzled for so long, Luo Yusheng finally couldn't help but ask, "Is Wei Xue pregnant with your child?"

She's always been straightforward and really didn't want to keep it bottled up anymore.

Jiang Moche repeated it incredulously on the other end of the phone, then asked in confusion, "Where did you hear this fake news?!"

Because his parents did not support his work at the research institute, Jiang Moche moved into the dormitory provided by the institute on his second day of employment.

Forget about pregnancy, he and Wei Xue had zero contact!

Most importantly, Jiang Moche's heart has always belonged to Luo Yusheng, and he would never have any affection for any other woman.

Seeing his reaction, Luo Yusheng suddenly realized that she had misunderstood everything.

The two chatted about their recent situations, and Luo Yusheng then learned that the reason Jiang Moche had not contacted her was because the research institute had assigned him a very important task.

Not only did I not have time to reply to messages, but even the large amount of time I had to eat was squeezed out of my schedule.

At 2:30 a.m., sleepiness came over me.

Luo Yusheng mumbled goodnight in a daze and soon drifted off to sleep.

After hearing her steady breathing, Jiang Moche reluctantly hung up the phone.

To Luo Yusheng's utter surprise, Jiang Moche appeared at her doorstep early the next morning.

"Aren't you attending the family dinner?"

The Jiang family is a prominent family in Beijing, and every year they hold a family banquet at their old residence to allow all the descendants to get to know each other.

Jiang Moche shook his head: "I don't want to participate."

In his twenty-odd years of life, he had obeyed orders far too many times.

If someone can't even decide their own personal freedom, then they are nothing more than a puppet of their parents.

Luo Yusheng smiled and got into the passenger seat of Jiang Moche's car.

During the Chinese New Year, everywhere was crowded with people, so the two of them went to a relatively famous temple scenic spot.

It is said that if you make a sincere wish here, all your wishes will come true in the future.

This is Luo Yusheng's first time visiting this city, despite having lived here for so many years.

The two of them plunged into the crowd, not even needing to walk themselves, but being pushed forward by the tourists behind them.

Luo Yusheng wasn't very tall, and before long, she was bumped into by a careless older man.

She cried out in pain.

Jiang Moche noticed the sudden incident and quickly pulled her into his arms.

"Be careful, stay close to me."

Luo Yusheng nodded, and soon, under his guidance, they successfully entered the temple.

After buying a few sticks of incense, Luo Yusheng slowly knelt on the soft cushion.

In the new year, she wishes for her parents' good health, a happy family, a successful career, and smooth sailing in her relationships...

After making her wish, she bowed devoutly to the Buddha statue in front of her.

Jiang Moche's gaze remained fixed on Luo Yusheng, never leaving her.

Whether going up or down the mountain, the scenic spot is always packed with people.

Before she had taken more than a few steps, Luo Yusheng felt an extra weight on her body.

"Sheng Sheng, I never expected to run into you here!"

Song Qianqian's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for people nearby to hear.

Luo Yusheng turned around and immediately recognized that all the brand-name items she was wearing were counterfeit.

"Hmm, you came alone?"

Knowing Ji Tingxiao and Song Qianqian's personalities, they'll definitely stick together.

Song Qianqian lowered her head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "I came with Tingxiao!"

"But don't get me wrong, I have absolutely no relationship with him!"

Her explanation will only make things worse.

Luo Yusheng ignored her and continued walking down the mountain.

Because there were too many steps and the crowd was so dense, Luo Yusheng instinctively moved to the side.

Seeing this, Song Qianqian followed suit, but unexpectedly stepped on a small pebble.

A moment later, Song Qianqian cried out "Ouch!" and squatted down, clutching her ankle.

"Little girl, are you alright?"

"This kind of thing happened on the first day of the Lunar New Year!"

"What bad luck!"

Song Qianqian was in so much pain that tears streamed down her face as she looked pitifully at the three people around her.

"Jiang Moche, can you carry me down the mountain?"

These words left not only Jiang Moche but also Luo Yusheng bewildered.

Song Qianqian explained, "Tingxiao and Shengsheng have already met each other's parents, only you can help me!"

She spoke as if it were perfectly reasonable; anyone who didn't know better would think she and Jiang Moche were a couple.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Luo Yusheng was worried that Jiang Moche would misunderstand, so she immediately scolded him.

The surrounding tourists realized there was excitement and stopped to watch the show.

"Girl, that's not right of you. This young man has nothing to do with you, and you're complaining about him carrying you down the mountain!"

"Exactly! You call yourselves friends? How can you let a little girl suffer and go down the mountain like that?"

Everyone here is the type to enjoy watching a good show, so they resorted to moral blackmail.

Luo Yusheng chuckled to herself as she looked at Song Qianqian.

She slowly squatted down: "I studied bone setting for a while. Since you sprained your ankle, I can definitely heal you."

As she spoke, she reached out to touch Song Qianqian's ankle.

Song Qianqian was startled, fearing that she might actually hurt herself.

"I... feel much better, so you don't need to bother me!"

Song Qianqian looked up and gave Ji Tingxiao a look.

"Tingxiao, since Shengsheng doesn't agree to Jiang Moche helping me, can you help me down the mountain?"

In front of Luo Yusheng, the two of them still had to maintain a certain distance, otherwise they would arouse her suspicion.

"it is good."

So, Luo Yusheng and Jiang Moche walked in front.

Song Qianqian, who was "twisted", could only follow behind Ji Tingxiao at a snail's pace.
