"I don't have any work arrangements, just come to me if you have something to do."
Shen Nanxing is the kind of person whose curiosity comes and goes quickly. When Ye Xinning said this, he changed the topic and talked about other things.
"This should be the only time in a long time that we celebrate the festival without our elders around. Come, let's have a drink together."
Shen Nanxing picked up the cup and served everyone. Ye Xinning didn't want to drink it at first, but Shen Nanxing was like this. It would be too pretentious to refuse any more.
Everyone clinked glasses together, and Shen Nanxing had an idea and suddenly said, "It's boring to just eat all the time. How about we talk about what we most want to achieve, which can be regarded as a wish for the coming year."
Ye Xinning cheered and said, "Okay."
Shen Nanxing pointed at Shen Ting and said, "Start with you."
Shen Ting held the wine glass and kept saying, "Why start with me?"
"It starts with you. There are so many reasons why."
Shen Ting, "..."
Shen Ting didn't speak for a long time. Just when Shen Nanxing felt that she couldn't wait for anyone to start the game, Shen Ting spoke.
"The one I love is safe and happy, and has a worry-free life."
Shen Nanxing looked at Shen Ting and said with a click of his tongue, "I asked you to start, but it was so heavy the first time."
"heavy?"
Shen Ting frowned, obviously not liking such an adjective.
"It's not that it's heavy, that young lady from the Su family probably doesn't want to see you."
The wine glass that Shen Ting was holding suddenly became boring. He looked at Shen Nanxing threateningly, "If you keep talking nonsense, I will throw you out right now and you won't have to eat."
Shen Nanxing looked completely fearless, "I know it's inappropriate to say this, but I still want to remind you that this is the home of my eldest brother and sister-in-law, not yours."
Shen Ting gritted his back molars in anger. Seeing the two people making a big fuss, Ye Xinning whispered in a soft voice, "Okay, okay, let's continue playing the game. The next person will talk."
Chi Zhao leaned on the chair and his eyes fell on Shen Nanxing, but Shen Nanxing didn't notice it at all and only focused on making trouble with Shen Ting.
"I hope that in the coming year, someone will be more stable and more... able to think about things."
Ye Xinning, "..."
I just said this to Shen Nanxing without naming him.
She asked no more questions, "Where is Nanxing? Do you have any wishes that you want to realize next year?"
Shen Nanxing talked about a lot in one breath, such as traveling, completing a very different operation in the hospital, and eating something she wanted to eat this year but didn't get to eat.
She made a lot of plans, but she didn't mention a word about Chi Zhao. Ye Xinning looked at Chi Zhao's face and was thinking about what to say, when Shen Nanxing asked her, "Sister-in-law, what are you most hoping to achieve next year?" What is one thing?”
Ye Xinning thought about it seriously, but couldn't think of anything.
She has never liked the sense of these rituals. These things are too vague and uncertain. Placing hope on them will make herself look particularly sad.
She thought for a while and replied, "I wish you were safe."
Shen Nanxing was obviously not satisfied with her answer. There was no value in getting it from her, so Shen Nanxing turned to ask Shen Lin, "Where's brother, what do you want?"
"Peace is good enough."
"..." Shen Nanxing.
Sure enough, they are a husband and wife, and their words are exactly the same.
"Okay, okay, peace and joy, peace and joy."
Shen Nanxing raised his wine glass again, "Drink, drink."
I had a great time eating this meal. I chatted while eating. Most of the time, Shen Nanxing and Shen Ting were the ones keeping the atmosphere lively.
After the meal, Shen Nanxing drank a little too much and wanted to watch the fireworks, so the group went outside again.
The temperature outside was very low, and Ye Xinning couldn't help but shrink when he went out.
But after a while Shen Lin came out with her clothes.
"Put it on."
He put some clothes on her and had a strong attitude. Ye Xinning was so cold that she didn't refuse.
After watching the fireworks outside for a while, Ye Xinning thought of what Xiao Chen called to tell him. After much hesitation, he still spoke to Shen Lin.
"Shen Lin." She called his name.
Shen Lin lowered his head and held her hand very naturally. Ye Xinning wanted to struggle, but Shen Lin said, "You want to tell me something?"
"Um."
When Shen Lin heard this, he didn't say anything and led her towards the house.
When there were only two people, he asked, "Okay, now we can talk, what should we say?"
"Did you help with the cooperation with the Li family of the law firm?"
Shen Lin probably didn't expect that she was asking about such a thing. He was stunned for a moment before replying, "Yeah."
Ye Xinning asked again, "Why do you want to help me?"
"You are my wife and if I don't help you, who will I help?"
Ye Xinning fell silent.
Therefore, Shen Lin helped solve the difficult cooperation case.
"The Li family is very difficult to deal with. How did you solve it?"
"The Li family's catering business is linked to the Shen Group. I made some insignificant concessions, and they compromised."
What Shen Lin said was irrelevant, but Ye Xinning didn't really believe it.
The Li family is really so easy to deal with, so how come Xiao Chen has been so busy because of this cooperation.
Ye Xinning knew that Shen Lin was making everything too simple.
She lowered her head and looked at her toes. After being silent for a long time, she finally said, "Why do you want to help, Shen Lin? In fact, you don't have to do this."
Moreover, she was planning to divorce him.
Shen Lin's hand fell on her head, not too hard, little by little, as if to soothe her emotions, "I know you are angry. I did not handle many things well during this period. You are not happy with me." I can coax you, Ye Xinning, I just want to tell you that the cooperation of the Li family is just a little compensation from me to you. We can obviously get along very harmoniously on these things, so there is no need for you to make trouble with me."
Ye Xinning felt very complicated. To a certain extent, Shen Lin helped the law firm and helped her.
She should be grateful. Indeed, Shen Lin also helped a lot.
But what Shen Lin said just now made her feel powerless.
In Shen Lin's opinion, she was just making trouble?
Has he never faced up to the problems between them?
His way of coaxing people was indeed special, but it was not something she could accept.
"This matter is considered a favor that the law firm owes you. I will tell Xiao Chen that if there are any cases related to your company in the future, we will handle them as appropriate and accept them at the best price."
Her businesslike words made Shen Lin's eyes cool down.
He held her hand and blocked her between the wall behind him and him, "What are the things I care about?"
