Prince charming, your persona has collapsed! -
Chapter 834 - 344: Bro, They, They Want to Acknowledge Me as Their Big Sister
Zhou Yuwen said on the surface that this house was for Pan Min to move into, but in reality, the Country Garden one was indeed bought for her, and it has Su Qing's name on it. However, the villa duplex was bought for himself.
After all, in two years, his family would have to relocate, so they definitely needed to buy a place to live.
Even though in his previous life, his family wasn't short on houses, one must know that housing in 2014 and 2016 were worlds apart. In this era, buying a house a year late means working ten extra years.
So, it's better to buy.
First, get the house in hand, and then they can move in directly when it's time to relocate.
After helping them complete the paperwork, it was already past three in the afternoon. Although it was New Year's Eve, the sales office was still bustling, with people cracking golden eggs and setting off fireworks, and everyone had smiles of happiness on their faces.
In this era, people genuinely had hope for the future.
Su Qing and Pan Min were over there cracking golden eggs and won a TV and a refrigerator.
Around four o'clock, Yang Lirong called Zhou Yuwen, directly and unceremoniously asking how much longer he planned to shop with his girlfriend.
"Are you coming back for dinner?"
Zhou Yuwen said he was almost done.
"I'll be back soon."
Actually, today, Pan Min also made quite a few dishes at her place. Of course, no matter what, Zhou Yuwen couldn't possibly stay at Pan Min's house for the New Year's Eve dinner.
Zhou Yuwen made the call in front of Pan Min and Su Qing.
So, whatever Yang Lirong said, they heard a bit of it too.
After Zhou Yuwen hung up, Su Qing had a pitiful look because for such an important day as New Year's, she obviously didn't want to part with Zhou Yuwen.
Pan Min, on the other hand, was understanding and told Su Qing to let Zhou Yuwen go.
Don't even think about Zhou Yuwen spending New Year's Eve dinner with Su Qing now. After marriage, at most, Su Qing could accompany Zhou Yuwen back home. It's definitely not possible for the man to go to the woman's house for New Year's.
But thinking about it now, with Zhou Yuwen having multiple wives, Su Qing could accompany Pan Min for New Year's in the future, so in a way, it takes care of Pan Min.
See, having multiple wives is beneficial.
So, just like that, Su Qing hugged Zhou Yuwen's neck with reluctance. Zhou Yuwen pinched Su Qing's cheeks and told her to accompany Aunt Pan well at home.
It's not like they'll never meet again; it's just a New Year, no need for drama.
After sending them home, Zhou Yuwen got home around five o'clock. Several relatives were already seated at home, and when they saw Zhou Yuwen come back, they noisily asked him to take the kids to set off fireworks.
With a series of crackling firecrackers outside, the New Year's Eve dinner at home officially began, with a group of Zhou family kids exclaiming over the firecrackers.
To be honest, this year was Zhou Yuwen's first year at the main table for dinner.
Mainly because last year he was busy with his senior high studies, and in previous years, he was too young and usually ate at a table with younger siblings. The main table involved drinking, so Zhou Yuwen couldn't attend.
This year was different; Zhou Yuwen was now in college and had achieved something outside. Without even saying anything, the uncles and aunts clamored for him to sit at the main table, insisting he drink a few extra glasses today.
At this point, Yang Lirong waved her hand, saying he's still a kid and shouldn't drink too much.
The guests, however, weren't happy about it, saying what about being a kid?
"When I was eighteen, I couldn't even come up with fifty bucks," said an uncle, a bit drunk, starting to ramble.
His words found agreement with many relatives.
Zhou Yuwen didn't mind, but for Peng Xiaoyong, who had just returned from studying overseas, it was hard to feel comfortable.
At 26 years old, when he first returned, he was well received, but because of Zhou Yuwen's presence, he quickly found himself overlooked.
Relatives continuously toasted Zhou Yuwen and Zhou Guobin, complimenting them with sayings like "like father, like son!"
Praising Peng Xiaoyong was inevitable, given that studying abroad was impressive, but compared to Zhou Yuwen, he fell short.
Zhou Yuwen couldn't tell him, "Bro, you can't compare to me; I'm playing a different game."
And so, Peng Xiaoyong, being overlooked by relatives, could only drink alone in silence.
It can't be blamed on Aunt's family being unsociable; mainly, Aunt's family made the wrong choices, leading them down a path that did not align with the other relatives' interests, and so naturally, they couldn't bond.
Peng Xiaoyong had a few drinks, fulfilled his social obligations, and then left the table first. Compared to these relatives who only exchanged pleasantries, Peng Xiaoyong preferred to be with Lu Wanting.
At this moment, Lu Wanting was happily eating at the kids' table outside.
Seeing Peng Xiaoyong come out, Lu Wanting was quite surprised and asked, "Why did you come out so soon?"
"It's dull inside, so I thought I'd finish up early to accompany you," Peng Xiaoyong said, emboldened after having a few drinks, speaking directly to Lu Wanting.
And upon hearing this, Lu Wanting grinned. The adult drinking table and the kids' table were only separated by a room, and through the slightly open door, she could see Zhou Yuwen being urged to drink by everyone inside.
Lu Wanting said, "Your brother seems quite popular, eh!"
Peng Xiaoyong pouted and said, his popularity is nothing; it's because my uncle has some privilege here, so our relatives have always liked revolving around them.
