Chapter 1506 Bai Xiaohe walks out on New Year’s Eve
The arrival of 2002 also means that the Lunar New Year is coming.
Compared with New Year's Day, China has always regarded the lunar year as the Spring Festival since ancient times. The Spring Festival is also the most important traditional festival in China since ancient times.
Rich or not, going home to celebrate the New Year is a festival that countless people who work outside dream about day and night.
For many people, they may only be able to go home once a year, which is naturally extremely important.
Although there are still some days before the Spring Festival, the atmosphere of joy and bustle has spread in the city, and the whole city has become more festive and lively.
The Spring Festival in previous years didn't have much to do with Zhou Chen. At most, it was just a gathering with Peng Fei and the others. On New Year's Eve, I spent it alone at home.
On New Year's Eve, unless it's family and friends he recognizes, he would rather spend it alone.
But things are a little different this year.
"Are you going back to your hometown for the Spring Festival?"
As the Spring Festival was approaching, Huang Yimei asked Zhou Chen while walking on the road after watching a movie.
Zhou Chen said: "I don't even have a single relative in my hometown, so why go back to celebrate the New Year? I have already arranged for people to house the house and sweep the tomb, so I don't have to go back every year."
When he crossed over, he had no relatives, and he had no feelings at all for the old people who had passed away. Due to his status as a descendant, he had already arranged for people to do all the things he should arrange. As for going back to pay homage in person, etc.
Wait, that's not necessary at all.
And now everyone in the village knows that he is prosperous. Before he went back, many of his fellow villagers either called for help or came to him in person. If he went back in person, he would only cause more trouble. This kind of trouble
, he doesn’t want to provoke anyone, and will hide if he can.
Huang Yimei's eyes suddenly lit up, and she suggested happily: "Since you don't want to go back to your hometown, why not go to my house during the Chinese New Year?"
After saying that, he looked at Zhou Chen longingly.
Zhou Chen tapped her nose and said, "We are still in love now, not married. Your family is celebrating the New Year together. It's inconvenient for me to go."
"Who said it? It's convenient, very convenient."
Huang Yimei paused, turned to face Zhou Chen, and asked in a serious tone: "We are not married, but I already have you, so you are our prospective son-in-law. It is normal for the prospective son-in-law to go to his parents' house to celebrate the New Year, okay?
Unless you have different intentions and don’t want to marry me?”
"What are you thinking about? I just think that this kind of thing is not yours to decide alone. You should go back and ask your parents first."
"No need to ask, I know they are definitely willing. You don't know, but my parents like you so much that they want to ask you to come home for dinner every now and then."
Zhou Chen smiled slightly and said: "It's better to go back and ask first. If they agree, I will also be willing to celebrate the New Year with you. If it is inconvenient, then forget it."
"Okay, I'll go back and ask, but I think it's really unnecessary. I know them too well."
Huang Yimei responded in a low voice that she really wanted to spend a good holiday like New Year's Eve and Spring Festival with Zhou Chen.
Just like what Huang Yimei said, when Huang Jianzhi and Wu Yuejiang learned that Zhou Chen would not go back to his hometown and would celebrate the New Year alone in the capital, they welcomed Zhou Chen to come and celebrate the New Year together. They even asked Huang Yimei to call Zhou Chen. The couple personally
Invite Zhou Chen on the phone.
Faced with such a warm invitation, Zhou Chen naturally agreed.
Although the Spring Festival is a day for reunions, the eve of the Spring Festival is also a busy day, especially for people like Zhou Chen and others who run large companies, and the end of the year is even busier.
In normal times, Zhou Chen doesn't have to go to the company very much, but at the end of the year, he, the big boss, will definitely appear, and he will still be the protagonist.
Various meetings and annual meetings were held continuously, and many things to be summarized at the end of the year required him to do it himself, so he was quite busy for nearly a month before the year.
All this was busy until the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month. In fact, there were still a lot of things to do, but Zhou Chen really didn't want to be busy anymore, so he was just lazy and left everything to Peng Fei.
During the Chinese New Year, although Zhou Chen did not return to his hometown, some people from the countryside who received his help came to visit him, such as the students he sponsored to go to college, and a few people with good connections who came to the capital to work through his connections, all of whom were
Thank him with gifts.
Although the folks in his hometown who had been helped by him did not come, they still sent a lot of things, some of which were brought by entrusters, and some of which were sent directly.
Some of the people he helped were annoying like Tao Xiaoning, but there were also many who were grateful and knew how to repay.
It’s New Year’s Eve, 2002.
Zhou Chen parked the car in the family courtyard and got out of the car with Huang Yimei. The two held hands, and Zhou Chen was holding several handbags in his hand.
"Rose, are you bringing your boyfriend back for the reunion dinner?"
"Yes, Aunt Zhu, have a great New Year."
"Happy New Year, happy New Year."
Although New Year's Eve is not really the Spring Festival yet, in everyone's eyes, it is already the Chinese New Year.
Half a year later, the neighbors in the family home already knew that Huang Yimei had a boyfriend, and he was a very rich boyfriend. However, they were still very surprised to see Zhou Chen come to Huang's house on New Year's Eve.
Zhou Chen and Huang Yimei didn't know or think about whether there were any bad rumors. They held hands and walked into Huang's house together.
Huang Jianzhi and Wu Yuejiang welcomed Zhou Chen's arrival very much.
The old couple are really becoming more and more satisfied with Zhou Chen. After more than half a year, they have had many meals together. Zhou Chen is impeccable in terms of appearance, personality and conversation, etc.
.
What satisfied them most was that Zhou Chen was really kind and tolerant to Huang Yimei. This was what they were most worried about originally, but now this worry has disappeared.
As for Zhou Chen's conditions, let alone the material ones. Even if the two get married and Zhou Chen has no relatives, their family will definitely be the main one.
Huang Zhenhua, who had a little 'conflict' with Zhou Chen before, now has a very good relationship with Zhou Chen.
On New Year's Eve, the 'family' had a reunion dinner and watched the Spring Festival party, which was very lively and joyful. Huang Zhenhua even scored twice and was drunk again.
Huang Yimei used the excuse that Zhou Chen was drinking, so she wanted to drive Zhou Chen home, and then left with Zhou Chen. Even though she didn't come home at night, her parents didn't call again.
Although this is not the first time to spend the night at Zhou Chen's house, today is a special day, New Year's Eve and New Year.
The two stayed together from New Year's Eve to the first day of the Lunar New Year, realizing a real New Year's Eve. It wasn't until three or four in the morning that they hugged each other and fell asleep tiredly.
During the Spring Festival this year, Zhou Chen was not alone. He was followed by followers wherever he went. Huang Yimei transformed into a clingy spirit and followed him wherever he went.
…………
The Chinese New Year is indeed a happy day, but such days cannot last forever. After the Spring Festival, Zhou Chen and Huang Yimei returned to their respective posts and started working.
Of course, Zhou Chen's job is different from Huang Yimei's job. He was just busy for a while, and then he became a hands-off shopkeeper again.
On this weekend afternoon, after Zhou Chen sent Huang Yimei home, he was about to leave. As soon as he drove out of the school gate, he suddenly ran into Bai Xiaohe, whom he hadn't seen for several months, so he stopped the car and said hello.
Originally he was just going to say hello and leave, but unexpectedly Bai Xiaohe stopped him and said he wanted to buy him a cup of coffee.
The two were also friends, so Zhou Chen had no reason to refuse, so he asked her to get in the car and drove to a coffee shop not far away.
After sitting down, Bai Xiaohe took the initiative and asked: "I heard that you and Huang Yimei are getting along very well now. Professor Huang and Professor Wu are both very satisfied with you."
Zhou Chen smiled and replied: "We get along pretty well, but you and Huang Zhenhua, you..."
Bai Xiaohe said: "Zhenhua is a very nice person and a good person, but you also know my situation. I really can't be tempted by him. It can only be said that there is no fate. If it drags on, it will only be worse for him. So at that time I
You can only be so decisive."
"I think it's okay. If you don't feel anything, just break up decisively. If you drag it out forcibly, it will only make both parties uncomfortable."
In fact, even from the plot, it can be seen that even after Bai Xiaohe let go of her ex-boyfriend, she had no feelings for Huang Zhenhua. From the beginning to the end, she only regarded Huang Zhenhua as a man suitable for marriage, not as a man who could marry.
Someone she likes.
So even if there was no ex-boyfriend, she would not choose Huang Zhenhua.
Bai Xiaohe said: "Although we don't have many contacts, I really admire you. I feel that you are a very transparent person. It seems that no matter what happens to you, it is not a big deal. You can calmly analyze the pros and cons, especially
rationality.”
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "For a science major like you, isn't it good to be rational?"
"Okay, very good, but I can't be as rational as you."
Speaking of this, Bai Xiaohe suddenly sighed: "Just some time ago, I made a decision to get out of the past and make a break with my past self, so I went to my ex-boyfriend's hometown and wanted to meet him.
one side."
"But after I went there, I didn't see him. He didn't want to see me. I went to the school where he taught to look for him. I had already arrived, but in the end I didn't have the courage to see him. After hesitating for a long time, I still didn't see him again. It's just that
He left quietly."
"So, you have come out now?" Zhou Chen asked.
Bai Xiaohe suddenly showed a relaxed smile, as if he had put down a heavy burden.
"Well, I have come out of it. I have been suppressing it in my heart for a long time. Now I am completely liberated. Everyone else has let go. The only one I am attached to is myself."
"It's good, just come out."
Bai Xiaohe sighed and said: "Now that I think about it, love is really too fickle. I don't want to fall in love or get married at all. Recently, my parents always force me to go on a blind date, so now I have
I completely moved to live on campus, alas.”
Looking at Bai Xiaohe who was sighing in front of him, Zhou Chen felt very strange. Before she came out, she was very cold and looked worried. But now that she had come out, she still looked worried and even sighed more. It seemed that it was true.
She was forced to get married by her parents.
Thinking about it, she probably didn't have many friends and couldn't find anyone to talk to, so when she saw him on the street, she took the initiative to invite him to drink coffee and vent her feelings.
"I don't know how to advise you. Anyway, in my opinion, if two people are together, they will make themselves uncomfortable and unhappy. It is better to live alone. There are many people who don't get married or fall in love, and I haven't seen them compare.
Who lives less."
It is better to not get married than not to get married, and it is better to get married than to get married.
Zhou Chen has lived for so many years and has seen things more clearly than anyone else. In Bai Xiaohe's current situation, he probably has lost interest in the relationship between men and women.
Bai Xiaohe sighed: "If my parents were as open-minded as you, I wouldn't feel so uncomfortable."
Zhou Chen drank coffee with Bai Xiaohe for more than an hour. Bai Xiaohe, who had always been cool and talkative, seemed to be a talkative during this time, talking a lot to Zhou Chen.
When they parted, she shook hands with Zhou Chen very happily.
"After talking to you, I feel much better. Zhou Chen, thank you."
Zhou Chen said: "No, we are friends, there is no need to be so polite."
"Okay, I won't delay you anymore, bye."
"Bye-Bye."
Zhou Chen watched Bai Xiaohe leave. To him, Bai Xiaohe was just a passerby in his life. He didn't know if he would have the chance to see her again in the future.
He didn't know how many friend-like passers-by like her he had met in so many worlds. It had been a long time since he'd seen her, and the memory of them seemed to be about to disappear.
A person will meet many people in his life, and may have many friends, but they will all drift away. In the end, how many of them can he really remember?
On this day, Huang Yimei told Zhou Chen that their company's plan for a charity art exhibition had been decided.
"I am also one of the main persons in charge of this project. This time our company plans to choose a painting of an autistic child. You are also an expert in this field. I would like to ask you to come with me to see this child.
By the way, you can also give me some advice."
Zhou Chen paused and his expression became serious. As a national-level pediatrician, he naturally knew about this disease, which is an incurable congenital disease.
This disease is not considered a pain for the child itself, but the parents and relatives of the child are actually suffering.
Children with autism may become geniuses, but the chance is too low.
He has helped such children in several worlds before, prescribed treatment structures, and received free treatment, but in the end it was only external help and could not cure this disease at all.
"Okay, I'll go take a look with you."
After making an appointment, Zhou Chen accompanied Huang Yimei to see the autistic child named Xiaojia. The child's symptoms were not serious. Although he could not speak, Zhou Chen had a special skill of 'Mars Language'
, I could understand her thoughts, so I quickly started chatting with her about painting.
This shocked Xiaojia's father. You must know that even he, the biological father who has always been with the child, has difficulty communicating with his daughter, but Zhou Chen, a stranger who met him for the first time, can communicate with his daughter. This is
It's something that has never happened.
Huang Yimei was also shocked. Originally, she only brought Zhou Chen to see the paintings, but she ended up being a theatergoer. She couldn't talk at all and could only chat with the father of the child.
With Zhou Chen as a catalyst, Huang Yimei had a very smooth conversation with Xiaojia's father and agreed to let Huang Yimei operate Xiaojia's paintings.
At this time, Zhou Chen had already started painting with Xiao Jia. Maybe he felt that Zhou Chen could understand him, so Xiao Jia was very close to Zhou Chen. She learned how Zhou Chen taught her, and they got along very friendly.
