Huo Mian held up her phone with a laugh . "I'm reading my Weibo comments, these people are too funny . "
Qin Chu smiled lovingly at this…
Huo Mian rarely used to flaunt their relationship because back then, their marriage was a secret . Too many people would be hurt if they learned the truth, so she chose to keep it from everyone .
Now, they had announced their relationship to the world . Moreover, a few days ago she won Snooker Celebrity Night, helping GK win a three-year contract with Mr . Li .
Media outlets in the city have all been reporting on what happened, and many had reached out to ask the couple for an interview .
However, Qin Chu refused them all because he didn't want to overly expose Huo Mian, which was good because she didn't want to be so showy to begin with . After all, she wasn't a superstar, so why would she so frequently appear on television?
The couple bought a lot of things before driving over to the Qin Manor .
Mr . and Mrs . Qin were in a great mood; the maid was on vacation and went home already, so Huo Mian went into the kitchen with her mother-in-law to prepare lunch .
She even prepared new clothes for Qin Chu's parents .
- Inside the kitchen -
Mrs . Qin was wearing a red Tang-style jacket, looking extremely festive .
She held Huo Mian's hands in her own . "It's freezing outside, you must be cold, driving all the way here . "
"I'm fine . " Huo Mian smiled .
"Have some date and lotus seed tea . I made it this morning, it's good for your body as you prepare for pregnancy . "
"Thanks, Mom . " Huo Mian obediently took the bowl and sipped at it .
It was normal for her mother-in-law to want her to get pregnant .
Ever since Mrs . Qin went to a fortune teller, she seemed to care even more about Huo Mian's pregnancy . She kept saying that she was going to have more than one grandchild…
She talked about this every morning with Mr . Qin as soon as she woke up, as if she was in a trance .
It was obvious that she wanted grandchildren very much…
With Huo Mian's help, Mrs . Qin made ten dishes .
Although Huo Mian rarely saw her cook, the food she made was still extremely delicious .
Qin Chu and Huo Mian stayed at the Qin manor until 10 PM . They left after having some dumplings and lighting up the fireworks .
Mrs . Qin found the coin in the dumpling and Qin Chu smiled and said that his mom was the luckiest woman alive .
Before they left, Mr . and Mrs . Qin gave Qin Chu and Huo Mian two giant red packets .
"Mom… is this really necessary?"
"Take it, it's a festive tradition . " Mrs . Qin smiled, and they got onto the car with the red packets…
Qin Chu gave his to Huo Mian . "Honey, I'll keep mine with you . "
Huo Mian smiled as she peeked into the red packet – there was 50,000 yuan in one of them; no wonder it was so thick…
Huo Mian just earned 100,000 yuan out of the blue; her mother and father-in-law were sure generous…
Suddenly, she received a notification on her phone .
After unlocking it, she saw that Zhu Lingling had sent her a red packet, which said, 'Girl, happy new year' . Huo Mian clicked on it, finding that she had sent her 188 . 88 yuan (TL: 8 is a lucky number in China) .
Then, she received some more red packets from her colleagues, her assistant, Zhixin, Gao Ran…
She even received a red packet from Director Wu as well, who was generous enough to send her 8888 yuan .
Qin Chu glanced at the money and laughed, "Wu Zhongxing should at least give you 88,888 yuan . "
Huo Mian smiled and pinched Qin Chu's nose . "Honey, I shouldn't be so greedy, I'm probably the only person Director Wu would give red packet money to . Hahah… I swear other doctors didn't get as much as I did . "
Huo Mian wasn't wrong; the other doctors didn't even receive red packets from Director Wu! Some even had to send Director Wu red packets…
Therefore, she was the ultimate exception .
In the past year, Huo Mian had brought night and day changes to South Side and contributed greatly to its transformation .
She even received a domestic and overseas award, making Director Wu walk prouder and stand taller amongst his other colleagues .
As she chatted with Qin Chu, Huo Mian received another WeChat money transfer .
It was from Huo Siqian – he didn't send her a lot, but the amount was weird .
He sent her 13,140 yuan . She would've accepted the money, since it was only a little over 10,000 yuan . However, '1314' was such an awkward number . (TL: '1314' means 'an entire lifetime' in Chinese, couples usually say it to each other to show how much they love each other) .
"Mian, happy new year," Huo Siqian added, making Huo Mian feel awkward .
Therefore, she clicked 'decline' .
She didn't have any reason to accept his '1314', Qin Chu was the only one she wanted to spend her life with .
"What's wrong?" Qin Chu asked, noticing the change in her expression .
