Chapter 645: Chapter 645 New Year 2

Hearing his prickly words, Shen Mianmian gave him a dismissive glance, "You might want to talk less; nobody thinks you’re mute."

After finishing, she turned to He Nan and asked with concern, "Big Brother He, it’s already this late, and you’ve come back from Beijing, are you planning to spend the New Year here?"

Before He Nan could speak, Lu Siyuan interjected, "You can rest assured, Big Brother He won’t be alone for the New Year here, he can go to Li Yue’s place to celebrate. After so many years by himself, he must be used to it."

"You don’t know?" He Nan raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Li Yue’s family has gone to Beijing and won’t be back until the sixth day of the new year."

Li Shiping had always lived in Beijing, to avoid Wan Dongcheng having an unhappy time during the festivity, and since Shen Mianmian was also reluctant to spend the New Year with the Li Family, they all went to Beijing for the holiday.

"Ah? I really didn’t know that." Shen Mianmian thought for a moment and then said, "They must have assumed I had already gone to Lu Siyuan’s place for the New Year."

At this time, technology was not so advanced, making it impossible to carry mobile phones with you, and communications weren’t convenient.

"Hmm," He Nan responded faintly, "It’s getting late. You should head out soon!"

After saying that, he coughed a few times, his voice seemingly growing a bit hoarse.

"Let’s go! Grandpa is getting anxious." With He Nan’s approval, Lu Siyuan was eager to drag Shen Mianmian away straight away.

As Shen Mianmian glanced at He Nan’s retreating figure, she couldn’t help but feel that he seemed a bit lonely at the moment. After thinking it over, she made a decision on the spot.

"You go back. I won’t go to your house for the New Year," she said.

Big Brother He would be too lonely spending the New Year in the city by himself, especially being sick. She couldn’t just leave him alone, could she?

At her words, a sly smile flickered across He Nan’s eyes.

"What?" Lu Siyuan’s temper flared up in an instant, his eyes bulging, "Shen Mianmian, you had promised before, how can you just say you won’t go and then not go? Can’t you show a bit of integrity? I can’t believe you’re someone who does business."

"Isn’t this a special situation that requires special treatment?" Shen Mianmian felt somewhat apologetic for going back on her promise, but Big Brother He had been so good to her. Now that she finally had the chance to repay him a little, she couldn’t just ignore him, could she?

What if He Nan developed a high fever in the middle of the night?

People with generally good health who rarely get sick tend to fall very ill when they do become sick.

"What special situation?" Lu Siyuan glared at the back of He Nan, feeling certain that nothing good happened whenever Big Brother He showed up, and indeed, as he had expected, sometimes he felt that Big Brother He did it on purpose.

A native of Beijing, not celebrating the New Year there and instead coming to Licheng to join in the hustle? What was that about?

"Stop talking nonsense, I said I’m not going and that’s final. You should hurry back, don’t make Grandpa worry any longer." Shen Mianmian brought her jacket, which she had placed by the door, back inside and handed Lu Siyuan one of the bags, "This is for Grandpa, you take it to him."

"Who cares about your gift?" Lu Siyuan was almost popping his eyes out, "Grandpa hasn’t seen you in a long while, he wants to see you in person."

"I’ll go pay a New Year’s visit to Grandpa on the second day, stop bellyaching," Shen Mianmian said, pushing him out of the door.

Lu Siyuan, fuming with anger, knew that he couldn’t just pull Shen Mianmian away. Aware of Shen Mianmian’s temperament, he understood that once she had made up her mind, she was unlikely to change it. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Finally, with a stomp of his foot, he turned and went downstairs.
