Chapter 489: Chapter 488: The Entire Xiao Family Knows that Master Mo is Bringing His Girlfriend Home Chapter 489: Chapter 488: The Entire Xiao Family Knows that Master Mo is Bringing His Girlfriend Home On New Year’s Eve morning, everyone was quite relaxed, and the villa had already been adorned by the group of young lads, bustling with the festive atmosphere of the holiday.

None of their families were in Jinjing, so most of them would stay in the villa for the New Year celebration.

Ning Xiang got up early and, no matter what had happened before, still greeted Lu Mian with a feigned nonchalance as soon as she saw her coming downstairs.

“Lu Mian, what are your plans for the holiday?

How about I take you around to see Jinjing’s scenic spots?

You’re here all alone, and if I don’t keep you company, Qimo might blame me for not being hospitable!”

Every word of hers was intended to showcase how close she was with Xiao Qimo, as if they were allies, while Lu Mian was merely a later addition to the group.

Lu A* Straightforward A* Mian couldn’t be bothered to decipher the meaning hidden in her words and leisurely walked down the stairs, replying indifferently, “Thank you, but no need.

I’m going to spend New Year’s at the Xiao Family.”

“What?” Ning Xiang couldn’t quite believe it and asked in disbelief, “You’re going to Qimo’s houseaEUR| for the New Year?”

“Yes.”

As she passed Ning Xiang, whose eyes were filled with astonishment and shock, Lu Mian casually made her way to the courtyard.

In the courtyard.

Mo Si and Mo Nie were busy loading gifts into the car.

Zhou Xin was still diligently arranging meal plans and other affairs for the team members during their training period.

Everyone was busy with their own things, except for Yun Sang, who was leisurely wandering around the yard.

Yun Sang was dressed particularly formally today, having shed the team’s black uniform for a dark grey checkered suit, and had even tied a necktie properly.

His long legs were encased in trousers made of high-quality fabric with a good fit, making them look even more impressively long.

Such an appearance gave him an air of solemnity and restraint not normally associated with his usual unruly and arrogant demeanor, adding a touch of masculinity.

However, his behavior was still much the same as always.

He pulled Xiao Qimo, who had come out earlier, aside and negotiated in a pleasant tone, “Qimo, look, I’ve got nowhere to go for the New Year, and our mom cooks so well.

Can I ask to go back with you to celebrate New Year’s at home?”

Xiao Qimo was thoroughly unimpressed.

He was supposed to bring his girlfriend home, what was Yun Sang even thinking?

“Not happening.”

“Why not?

The Xiao Family wouldn’t miss one more mouthful of food, right?”

Xiao Qimo looked at him earnestly and clarified, “I’m saving up for my wife.”

In any case, it all came down to this one extra mouthful of food.

Yun Sang: aEUR|

It’s all talk, but could you not rub it in?

Lu Mian couldn’t help but smile at the interaction between the two of them, shaking her head as she walked out of the courtyard.

She glanced absentmindedly at the sky; it was somewhat dark and gloomy, even in the morning it wasn’t very bright.

It looked like it might snow.

She suddenly remembered the promise of the first snow she had made with Sikong Jian and exhaled softly.

In the end, Yun Sang managed to persuade Xiao Qimo with his formidable clinginess to bring him along for New Year’s at home.

Partly because Xiao Qimo was in a good mood and didn’t bother to argue with him anymore.

Ye Jinwen was just about to go and pay an early New Year’s visit to the Xiao Family, so Yun Sang hitched a ride with Ye Jinwen and followed Xiao Qimo in his car, and together they headed for the Xiao residence.

aEUR”aEUR”

The Xiao Family estate.

Located in the suburbs within an area famous for its beautiful environment and excellent air quality, it was a prime piece of feng shui real estate.

When the entire Xiao family moved here from their old compound, Xiao Huazun chose this place for its air quality, conducive to a good family and home, and particularly because his wife Qi Zhen liked it.

From the family patriarch to Xiao Qimo, there wasn’t a single dissenting opinion.

Although distant from the city center, the advantage was its tranquility and freshness.

At this moment, the Xiao Family residence was filled with lights and colored decorations, brimming with festivity.

From the butler to the servants, everyone knew that today the household would welcome a joyous occasion.

Their master was bringing his girlfriend home!

Early in the morning, the servants had been quietly discussing the matter, all curious about what kind of girl had captured Qimo’s heart.

In the main building’s master bedroom.

Xiao Huazun brought a bowl of yam’s nest at the perfect temperature to Qi Zhen, who was sitting up in bed, deep in thought.

“Wife, don’t be unhappy.

Didn’t you say you wanted to personally cook a meal for our daughter-in-law once she’s back?

How about you get up and get ready, and I’ll go to the kitchen to assist you?”

As Qi Zhen sipped some of the bird’s nest soup, she sighed, “No need.

He’s eaten it beforeaEUR|”

Xiao Huazun tried to comfort her repeatedly, to no avail.

The servant Gui Ping came in to clean, chatting with a smile as she entered, “Family Head, madam, the butler said they’re already on the way.

They will be home in half an hour.”

She was unaware of what was on Qi Zhen’s mind and was somewhat puzzled by the madam’s lack of cheeriness today.

“They’re arriving so soon?” Qi Zhen panicked.

“Yes, they’ll be here any moment,” Gui Ping chuckled.

“Madam, it’s the brides who are normally nervous about meeting their in-laws.

Why are you, of all people, the nervous one?

Don’t worry, with your kind temper, the girl is bound to like you!

Now that the entire Xiao Family knows about the good news, there’s no need to be anxious!”

“What?

Everyone knows?” Qi Zhen put down the small bowl.

“Yes, it’s not just the Xiao Family; somehow the news leaked, and people from other clans have also heard bits and pieces.

They’ll probably come over to visit after the New Year!” Gui Ping, always straightforward, said what was on her mind.

Qi Zhen nodded with difficulty, the thought of facing a multitude of relatives and friends after the New Year left her feeling utterly hopeless about tomorrow.

On the other side, Xiao Qimo was unaware of these details and had Mo Si turn on the car’s music.

The gentle flow of piano music indicated his good mood.

The driver, Mo Nie, and the co-driver, Mo Si, could both sense it.

Mo Si took a long breath: The pretense Qimo had once put on had finally come full circle.

Mo Nie silently sighed: Miss Lu’s real trials were just beginning.

In the back seat, Ye Jinwen casually opened the music app, sticking with his usual symphonic starlight tunes.

Yun Sang glanced at him before abandoning any pretense of posture and began playing with his phone in the co-driver’s seat.

Their trio, when the New Year came around, each had their own troubles.

He dreaded going home because it meant facing scoldings, the pressure to marry, and having to deal with Shen Family matters and other tedious issues.

His seventh brother, on the other hand, had a home he couldn’t return to; Aunt Xiao always hoped he would find a girlfriend and settle down with a family.

The pressure to marry increased year by year.

Yun brother was different; no one pushed him to marry, and his life was free.

Still, he was the most pitiable of them all.

Wanting to return home, yet having no home to return to.

Ye Jinwen turned the volume of the music down a bit and, heaving a deep sigh, asked the flippant man beside him, “Yun brother, what exactly happened to the Yun Family back then?

How did they just silently drop out of the Supreme Clan ranks?

Where are your uncle and aunt now?”

“They…” Yun Sang casually lifted his eyelids, “went to look for someone.”

Ye Jinwen asked curiously, “Look for someone?

Who?”
