In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the year, and the festive atmosphere gradually became on the streets. Lu Ming was also thinking about how to celebrate the new year with Cheng Shen, when he received a call from his father, Lu Guoan, asking him to go back for dinner on the night of the 31st, tomorrow, saying Throughout the year, the whole family must sit at the same table to eat this meal.

Lu Ming wanted to refuse, but told his father that it wasn't the Lunar New Year, and it wasn't that important, but in the end, Lu Guoan said it all over his face, and finally he could only agree to go back.

Cheng Shen didn't say anything else about it, and didn't show a trace of unhappiness, so he said to Lu Ming, "Go, it's good to go home and have a meal together with the family."

"how about you?"

"I'm on duty at the hospital."

"Just you?"

"Of course not, there are others."

"Oh, that's okay. Then I'll come to you after dinner."

"it is good."

The next night, Lu Ming brought a bottle of good wine back to the Lu residence.As soon as I entered the door, I saw Lu's mother and Lu Lei sitting in the hall, and asked, "Where are my father and my elder brother?"

Lu's mother glanced upstairs, "I don't know what the two of you are talking about in the study. Come on, sit down, it's cold outside?"

"It's okay, it's not too cold, and you know that I'm not afraid of the cold, but the heat."

Lu Ming sat down next to Lu Lei. Lu Lei stared at his phone intently, not knowing who he was chatting with. Lu Ming bumped him with his shoulder, "Hey, you won't call me brother anymore?"

"elder brother."

"It's too perfunctory, and you're still angry because I kicked you last time?"

Lu Lei glanced at Lu Ming, "No, not really."

"Brother didn't do it on purpose, think about it for yourself, did you say too much that day?"

"I know brother, I was really wrong that day."

"Since you know you're wrong, why are you still drooping?"

"I haven't passed the double check of my graduation thesis, and I'm just getting annoyed."

"Oh...it's because of this."

"Well, what do you think?"

"I thought you were holding grudges against me."

"Why, you thought I was you."

"Hey you kid, if you give you some color, you'll be brilliant, right? You're looking for trouble..." The two started arguing on the sofa, and Mother Lu looked at them like children who couldn't grow up , smiled and shook his head again and again, and pushed the cup on the coffee table in, for fear that the two people would accidentally break the cup when they were fighting.

"I'll go and see if the meal is ready. You two pay attention, your Uncle Tang will come over later to see what it looks like."

Tang Yi and Tang Shenglin would come to Lu Zhai to have dinner with them every year. Tang Shenglin hadn't found a partner for so many years. In addition, he and Lu Guoan had been close friends for many years. After all, the two families were more lively together.

After a while, the doorbell rang, and Lu Ming went to open the door. It was Tang Shenglin and Tang Yi who came.

"Hello, Uncle Tang."

"Hey, good."

Then Lu Ming and Tang Yiyong greeted each other with their eyes without saying a word, and entered the hall together.Mother Lu asked them to sit down and knocked on the door of the study upstairs, calling Lu Guoan and Lu Zheng down.

Lu Ming sat next to Tang Yi and asked, "Have you received the gift for you?"

"what gift?"

"Birthday present."

"Did you get me a birthday present?"

"Nonsense, isn't it? What year did I not prepare for you? That day I had something to do during the day, and I wanted to go to your house to find you at night, but you were not at home, and no one answered the phone, so I left the things at your door, you did not see it?"

Tang Yi suddenly remembered what happened in Yeweiyang that night, and he became a little nervous, "Oh... that... I went on a business trip for a few days, maybe I was on the plane so I didn't answer your call, isn't it the end of the year? I'm a bit busy with a lot of things in the company, and I haven't had time to go home yet."

Tang Yi lied about his business trip, but it is true that he has not been home for the past two days. He either slept in the company or slept outside, and he couldn't explain why. He just didn't want to go back, and he always felt that the space at home was too quiet.

"What gift did you prepare for me?"

"I won't tell you, go back and see for yourself."

"Is there anything going on tonight?"

Just about to say no, I remembered that I would go to the hospital to find Cheng Shen after dinner, "What's wrong?"

"There's something I want to tell you."

"What can't you say now?"

Just as Tang Yi opened his mouth to say something, he caught a glimpse of Lu Guoan, father and son Lu Zheng coming down from the stairs out of the corner of his eye. The two had the same aura.

Lu Zheng was the one who missed Lu Guoan the most among his three second sons. Apart from his appearance and body shape, he also inherited seven or eight points of his personality, which was almost carved out of the same mold.It's just that Lu Guoan is gradually getting older, and his figure is not as tall and strong as before. Compared with Lu Zheng, he is a bit shorter, but compared with his peers, he still looks very young.

"The elder brother and father are so similar, both have the same good temperament. The second brother is very similar to my mother. I can't do it. I am not as tall as my elder brother, nor as good-looking as my second brother. I have not inherited the good genes of my parents. I wonder if I am born to my parents."

A joke, the voice was not too loud and it happened to be heard by everyone present, and fell into a strange silence for a while, but the owner who said this sentence seemed not to notice anything unusual, and was still sitting on the sofa with a smile on his face Flip through the phone webpage.

"If you say it doesn't look like it, your second brother doesn't look like your own. It's like being a relative when you go home."

Lu Guoan's words made everyone present laugh, including Lu Lei.

"Don't talk about children like that, Mingming is so much better than those rich kids outside."

"Uncle Tang, are you praising me or scolding me?"

Immediately, several people laughed together, and the atmosphere became lively again in an instant.

A lot of dishes were prepared for dinner, as well as the red wine brought by Lu Ming, everyone was full of praise.

"Your choice of wine is really good. When did you start to study red wine?" Tang Yi asked Lu Ming, shaking the glass of red wine lightly.

"This bottle is actually Cheng...uh... my friend helped me pick it out, and I, you know, it always smells like alcohol, as long as you can drink it."

Lu Ming reacted quickly enough. He didn't actually say the word Cheng, but Lu Lei heard it, and asked him in a low voice, "Cheng what? Cheng what?" with a gloating look on his face.

Lu Ming glanced at him, then slapped his thigh hard under the table, gritted his teeth and said, "Shut up."

Seeing his brother's appearance, Lu Lei almost laughed out loud.

After dinner, everyone chatted in the hall for a while, then Tang Shenlin started playing chess with Lu Guoan, Lu Lei sat beside them and watched the two of them play chess, while Lu Zheng and Mother Lu talked on the other side, Tang Yi took the opportunity to play chess with Lu Guoan. Lu Ming called out to the terrace outside.

"What's the matter? By the way, what did you say to me at that time?"

"Well...it's about your family."

"What about our family? What's the matter?"

"Has Uncle Lu mentioned anything about the company to you recently?"

"My dad never tells me this. He usually tells my elder brother. Did something happen to his business?"

"It's not a big deal. I just recently found out that your company's stock floats a little abnormally."

"Isn't that what stocks are like? My dad has been here for so many years. If he really found out that something was wrong, he must have already had a countermeasure."

"That's right." Tang Yi smiled, "Maybe I'm thinking too much."

The two talked a lot about each other, and later Tang Yi saw that Lu Ming had been checking the time frequently, so he asked him, "What's the matter?"

"It's actually nothing."

"Are you going to see Cheng Shen?"

"Uh-huh."

"I guess it is." Tang Yi turned his back, put his hands on the edge of the terrace, and looked at the night outside, "Then go, it's getting late."

It was already late for them to eat, and it was almost ten o'clock now.

"Okay, then I'm leaving. I'll go out and talk to them."

"Ah."

Lu Ming went downstairs and saw his father and Tang Shenglin drinking tea, "Dad, Uncle Tang, I have something to do and I have to go first."

"What can you do?"

"Private business."

"No, just stay at home honestly today."

"No... I really have something to do."

"Is there anything wrong with you, can I not know? Are you going to see that Cheng!"
