Seeing that Shen Ruoyan didn't speak for a long time, Qin'er became even more anxious. She stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Shen Ruoyan and asked, "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing, just a little tired!" Shen Ruoyan came back to her senses and pretended to yawn.

Seeing that Shen Ruoyan was fine, Qin'er felt relieved and said with a smile: "Miss, Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!" Shen Ruoyan also forced out a smile.

There was a lot of noise outside. Amidst the lively sound of firecrackers, Shen Ruochuan could be vaguely heard shouting about performing a boxing show. After hearing this, the servants gathered around and clapped their hands and booed.In such a cheerful and lively occasion, one should obviously be happy, but for some reason, there is always a lingering loneliness in a corner of Shen Ruoyan's heart.

During the Chinese New Year, everyone always says Happy New Year.

However, can we really be happy in the new year?

Seeing Qin'er's expression of wanting to join in the fun, Shen Ruoyan took out the red envelope she had prepared long ago, stuffed it into Qin'er's arms, said a few auspicious words, and let her go and play by herself.

"Miss, are you really not going to watch the eldest master perform Drunken Boxing?" Before leaving, Qin'er still wanted to drag Shen Ruoyan to go with her.

Shen Ruoyan waved her hand, "Go quickly. My brother only knows a few moves and won't be able to fight for long. If you go there late, you won't be able to see me. I'm going to bed. You should go to bed early when you've had enough fun."

When Qin'er heard this, she laughed and hurriedly ran outside the hospital.

Shen Ruoyan was the only one left in the room again. She was indeed a little tired that day. She wanted to wash up and prepare to rest. Suddenly she caught a glimpse of the big red envelope given by Lu Yan, and Shen Ruoyan immediately became energetic.

Sitting at the table, Shen Ruoyan took out all the banknotes inside. After careful counting, there were more than 700 taels!

Could it be that Lu Yan gave him all his salary for a year?

Shen Ruoyan shook her head, it seemed that Lu Yan was really drunk tonight!

However, Shen Ruoyan would not return the red envelope she received.Shen Ruoyan was even happier when she thought of Lu Yan's distressed look when he found out that he had received such a big red envelope when he woke up tomorrow.

After getting so much money for nothing, Shen Ruoyan hugged the big red envelope and kissed it with a smile on her face, and suddenly felt a line of sight falling on her.

Shen Ruoyan subconsciously looked around and saw that her room was empty, with no one around.

But this feeling of being spied on became clearer once she realized it. Shen Ruoyan felt uncomfortable all over, especially when she was holding the huge red envelope given by Lu Yan just in her hand. She frowned and carefully looked around her house. Read it again.

There was no one around, so Shen Ruoyan's eyes moved upward and met a pair of smiling eyes in an instant.

Lu Yan was leaning on the beam, looking at him with a smile!

Shen Ruoyan's pretty face suddenly turned red when she thought of Lu Yan's confused look when she was counting the money just now.

"Why haven't you left yet?" the girl blamed angrily.

Lu Yan jumped down from the beam lightly, "Yan'er, I'll take you somewhere."

"I'm tired and want to sleep!" Shen Ruoyan said, standing up and pretending to go back to the back room.

But she forgot that Lu Yan was drunk now. The usually gentle and cool boy had completely changed his personality. He picked up Shen Ruoyan and said, "That place happens to be quite far away. You can take a nap first."

After saying this, without waiting for Shen Ruoyan to object, Lu Yan lifted up the cloak and enveloped the girl in it.

Shen Ruoyan's eyes were dim, and she struggled angrily for a few times. Instead, Lu Yan hugged her tighter, and took out his hand as if to comfort a child, patted Shen Ruoyan's back, and said in a deep voice: "Be good, don't make trouble."

Shen Ruoyan wanted to say that he was the one who should stop making trouble!

Knowing that she couldn't reason with a drunkard, and that she couldn't break free from Lu Yan's restraints, Shen Ruoyan could only let him hold her obediently, feeling Lu Yan lift into the air with her.

The excitement in Shangshu's Mansion became more and more distant, and the rhythmic heartbeat of the young man could be heard in his ears. In such a dim and warm environment, a strong sleepiness made Shen Ruoyan fall asleep deeply in Lu Yan's arms.

When Shen Ruoyan woke up, she found that they were already in a deserted suburb. When she raised her head, she was surrounded by overlapping shadows of trees. Occasionally, there was a chirping of a night bird, mixed in the cool breeze. Compared with the bustling scene just now, , the silence here is a bit scary.

Shen Ruoyan felt something bad in her heart.

She originally thought that if Lu Yan insisted on taking her, it would be some good place, or go to the city tower to watch fireworks, or go to Zuiyue Tower to listen to music and admire the moon, but he was so crazy about it, he had nothing to do. Did she bring her to this wilderness?

Shen Ruoyan's body was full of alarm bells. It was late at night and there was no one around. It looked like a perfect place for killing people and stealing goods. How could she let Lu Yan take her out of the house so easily just now?

No wonder Lu Yan wrapped himself such a big red envelope, it turned out that he wanted her to relax her vigilance.

Lu Yan was indeed thinking deeply. Thinking of this, Shen Ruoyan couldn't help but tremble all over.

"Are you awake?" Lu Yan asked from above.

"Put me down!" Shen Ruoyan's voice was trembling when she spoke.

Lu Yan stopped prancing, put the person down gently, took off his cloak and put it on her body. He took Shen Ruoyan's hand and asked, "Why are your hands so cold?"

Shen Ruoyan smiled bitterly. Not only were her hands and feet cold, but there was also a light layer of cold sweat on her back.

"Where are we going?" Shen Ruoyan asked pretending to be calm.

"We'll be there in a moment." Lu Yan took Shen Ruoyan's hand and led her up the mountain.

Shen Ruoyan felt like crying, but on the surface she didn't dare to ask or say anything. She followed Lu Yan's footsteps obediently. As she walked, two lonely graves appeared on the hillside in front of her.

Shen Ruoyan was so frightened that her lips turned white. If her hand hadn't been held tightly by Lu Yan, she would have really wanted to run away.

The young man turned his head, and the cold moonlight shone on his face, coloring Lu Yan's Qingjun aloof features with a touch of sadness, "Don't be afraid, Yan'er, they are my parents."

Shen Ruoyan's heart seemed to be held tightly by a big hand, and she forgot to breathe for a moment.

In her last life, she had been married to Lu Yan for three years, but she didn't know anything about his past. She only heard that Lu Yan's mother was extremely beautiful and was once a stunning beauty who was famous in the capital at that time.

In Shen Ruoyan's impression, the most beautiful person she had ever seen was Concubine Chen in the palace. At that time, she was still an ignorant child and was not very clear about what beauty was. She only remembered that every time she saw Concubine Chen, she kept looking at her. He became polite when he spoke, for fear of making her frown.

While Shen Ruoyan was lost in thought, Lu Yan straightened his clothes, knelt down and said, "Mom, dad, I'm bringing Yan'er to see you."
