Xiaoyi was reluctantly carried into the carriage. Before leaving, he carefully stuck his head out and said to Zhuang Zhuang, who was closest to him, “I’ll be back…”

Immediately after, a punch landed on him. Xiaoyi wailed and covered his head as he retreated into the car.

After watching the carriage leave, Zhuang Zhuang let out a sigh like an adult and hoped that Xiaoyi would behave himself.

In the carriage, Shao Zhan mocked Xiaoyi, who was behaving in a dramatic manner. “You must have grown up a lot over the past year. You just leave the house without informing anyone.”

Xiaoyi’s wailing suddenly stopped and he looked at his father carefully. “No way. Is he really settling scores now? Is he serious?’

“I… it’s because… so…”

The two of them always spent New Year’s Eve together, staring at each other. It was so boring. Knowing that it would be very lively here, how could he not come and join them?

Shao Zhan snorted. “He only cared about himself. Doesn’t he know that his father would feel bored too?’ On this festive occasion, a son had abandoned his father and gone off to enjoy life on his own. It was unfair to him as a father.

“Don’t be angry.”

Xiaoyi looked at him aggrievedly with his big eyes.

Shao Zhan’s heart softened immediately. “Next time…”

“I promise there won’t be a next time!!”

Xiaoyi quickly made a promise, fearing that his father would keep a closer watch on him when they returned to the palace. Therefore, he kept saying all sorts of nice words, trying to appease his father.

Shao Zhan showed no signs of being swayed by Xiaoyi’s words. After listening to him quietly, he finally spoke up and said, “I mean, next time remember to take me with you.

On the other side, the surroundings had finally quietened down. At this moment, everyone had fallen asleep. The few of them had initially planned to go out to the streets to watch the lion dance, but dinner had dragged on for too long, so they gave up eventually.

“Go back to the house and sleep. We have to get up early tomorrow.”

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, they had to eat dumplings at dawn. It is said that the earlier you eat dumplings on this day, the more luck you will have in the new year.

Ruyi stretched and walked towards the room, but Xiaoguo stopped her.

“The hot water has already been prepared. We need to take a new year’s bath to wash away the old dust. This is a tradition that we should stick to.”

Xiaoguo dragged her along as she spoke, not forgetting to call Xiao Zhu and Yu Ling along.

The four of them would have to take a quick bath together before retiring for the day.

“Ah…”

Filled with reluctance, Ruyi tried to find all sorts of excuses to avoid taking a bath. But Xiaoguo simply ignored her as she pushed her to the bathroom.

“Okay, let’s go this way.”

Li Shouji took the lead and walked in the other direction. Shu Botong and Qin Anming were following behind. Jiang Danhe was at the back, holding Zhuang Zhuang’s hand.

Unlike women who take a long time to shower, the men were much quicker. They could pour a bucket of water over themselves and be done with it. In winter, they could even use cold water.

When nobody was paying attention, Jiang Danhe secretly signaled to Zhuang Zhuang.

Zhuang Zhuang was a little hesitant. In the end, under Jiang Danhe’s slightly seductive gaze, he nodded back at him.

Zhuang Zhuang let go of Jiang Danhe’s hand and ran to Qin Anming. “Uncle, uncle, can I sleep with you tonight? It’s been so long since I last slept with you…”

Zhuang Zhuang’s acting skills were pretty good. The others did not notice anything amiss and started teasing Jiang Danhe.

“Your son likes his Uncle more…”

“A nephew who enjoys sticking around his uncle, no problem. It’s always been that way.”

Jiang Danhe didn’t have any objections to this. Instead, he smiled and nodded.

Seeing that Jiang Danhe didn’t object, Qin Anming stroked the boy’s head. “Okay, sleep with me tonight then.”

“That’s great!” Zhuang Zhuang laughed and jumped up. He looked very happy.

Jiang Danhe looked even happier than him. “This is awesome”

As Zhuang Zhuang walked, he did not forget to turn around and steal a glance at his father. “My complete set of ancient books and a set of scented ink..”

Jiang Danhe was in a good mood. He nodded and gave the boy a look. “Don’t worry, I’ll give it to you tomorrow.”

The father and son exchanged glances and nodded quietly. It was obvious that both parties were very satisfied with the outcome of the deal.

After taking a shower, Xiaoguo parted ways with Ruyi and the others, as the bathroom was closer to her room. She didn’t dry her hair, and only wrapped it in a towel before hurrying back to her room.

As soon as she stepped in, she felt a little strange. The room seemed unusually quiet.

” Where’s Zhuang Zhuang?’

As Xiaoguo dried her hair, she walked towards the bed where Jiang Danhe was lying.

No one answered her question because Jiang Danhe had already closed his eyes.

Just as Xiaoguo approached the bed, thinking that he had fallen asleep, the other party slowly opened his eyes.

His eyes were filled with a hazy sense of vulnerability as he looked straight at her. His usually sharp eyes were looking exceptionally pure and kind at this moment. She felt her heart melting instantly.

In this state, Jiang Danhe resembled the way Zhuang Zhuang looked when he had just woken up. He looked utterly cute and adorable.

“You’re back…”

“Yes,” Xiaoguo replied softly, as if she was afraid of waking him up. Her eyes were filled with a gentleness that he had never seen before.

Jiang Danhe, who was pretending to be drunk, suddenly blushed at that moment. He got up to hide the smile on his face.

“I told you not to drink so much, but you refused to listen to me. Are you feeling better now?” Xiaoguo asked worriedly as she stroked his back. “How is it? Are you feeling unwell? Do you need me to make you some hangover soup?”

Jiang Danhe loved it whenever she expressed her concern for him. The more Xiaoguo cared about him, the happier he was.

Moreover, he knew exactly what to do to win Xiaoguo’s meticulous concern and love.

Just shaking his head and keeping quiet was enough to soften her heart.

“Jiang Danhe in his drunken state is too cute. He looks like a replica of Zhuang Zhuang…”

Xiaoguo hid the smile on her face. She decided to tease him while he was still drunk.

The good-looking man now looked like a baby, who could be manipulated by Xiaoguo any way she wished.

Looking at his flushed cheeks from the alcohol, Xiaoguo mustered her courage and reached out her sinful hands to give him a gentle squeeze.

He always did that to her—it was finally her turn to pinch him back. And surprisingly, it felt pretty good. Although his body didn’t feel quite as soft and tender as Zhuang Zhuang, it was very firm and bouncy.

Once she started, she couldn’t stop. Especially since he kept looking at her so innocently. Her evil thoughts were getting out of hand. If she didn’t take advantage of him now, when would she get another chance?

Xiaoguo could no longer control the strange feeling in her heart. Forgive her, the drunk Jiang Danhe was really super soft and cute!

Jiang Danhe let her ravage him. He didn’t show it on his face, but he was actually struggling internally.

One part of him was telling him to pounce on her. The other part of him was telling him to calm down and take things one step at a time. He should seduce the other party until she finally lets down her guard.

Xiaoguo was so engrossed in her kneading act that she did not notice the other party’s eyes. The storm that was brewing, was about to reach its peak.

Suddenly, Jiang Danhe took action and pushed Xiaoguo down.

Startled by his sudden movement, Xiaoguo looked at him uneasily with her big, watery eyes.

The two of them looked at each other. The man looked completely awake now. Xiaoguo must be aware that he was just pretending to be drunk. As for his motive, she should be aware of it as well.

“Can I?”

Jiang Danhe tried to suppress his racing heart and looked at her carefully. He did not want to miss out on any single fluctuations in her emotions.

She looked shy, nervous, and uneasy, but there was no resistance or disgust in her eyes.

This discovery was enough to excite him. The slight nervousness in his heart quickly disappeared, leaving only endless flames that were ready to erupt.

Xiaoguo looked at him seriously and smiled before nodding shyly.

It was a very slight nod. She didn’t dare to say a word, afraid that her heart would jump out of her throat if she said anything.

Although the two of them already had a child, they were still quite ignorant about this matter.

The atmosphere was starting to get sticky when Xiaoguo suddenly came back to her senses and asked a mood-killing question, “Where’s Zhuang Zhuang?”

Jiang Danhe looked at her helplessly and did not speak. He only answered her with his actions.

Xiaoguo was so frightened by the flames in his eyes that she extinguished her other thoughts, immersing herself in the wave of passion that was exclusive to the two of them..
