"You are so shameless. I obviously won with my own ability!"

"If I hadn't asked you, would you have won? Besides, no filial son would come back empty-handed all day long. This money should be used to buy supplements for me!"

"What are you two doing in the room? You are so noisy!" Chen Lanying opened the door and glared at Li Minghua, then said to Li Zhuangsheng with a smile, "Son, look, your wife is here too!"

Li Zhuangsheng was stunned. Hu Mengdie, who was following Chen Lanying, had already stepped forward to greet Li Minghua with a smile.

"dad."

Li Minghua immediately changed his face and nodded cheerfully: "Here you go...what are you carrying in your hand?"

Chen Lanying clicked her tongue, but there was a smile on her face: "I bought you something, you said this girl, just come here, and I bought so many things!"

Hu Mengdie smiled modestly, with crooked eyes: "It's the Lantern Festival the day after tomorrow, so I just want to buy something for you and your two elders. I don't know what to buy, so I just bought it casually."

"Look at your wife, then look at you, I raised you in vain!" Li Minghua turned around and angrily scolded Li Zhuangsheng, "Let's not talk about coming here empty-handed, and you are still thinking about my money. If you still have a conscience, just put the money away." Give it back to me!"

Li Zhuangsheng turned a deaf ear and was in a daze. He was caught off guard by Hu Mengdie's surprise attack.

Hu Mengdie stepped forward gently, straightened Li Zhuangsheng's collar, and said with a nonchalant smile: "Why did you come back so early today? How about your reader, why don't we invite you to have a meal with me at home?"

Today, her long hair is disheveled and she is wearing an off-white down jacket. Her smile is IKEA-like and gentle.

"She's home..." Li Zhuangsheng took a step back awkwardly and forced a smile on his face, "Why are you here?"

"I haven't been back to visit my parents for a long time." Hu Mengdie smiled, "After dinner, let's go back together."

Li Zhuangsheng didn't know how to answer for a moment, but in front of Li Minghua and Chen Lanying, he could only nod reluctantly.

Li Zhuangsheng had a vague feeling that Hu Mengdie might know something, but her behavior was extremely normal.

He was confused and didn't know what to do. It happened that Chen Lanying went to the kitchen to cook, and Li Zhuangsheng hurriedly followed to help.

Not long after, Li Xiuyu also returned home. The family had dinner, and Chen Lanying and Li Minghua watched the young couple leave.

Li Xiuyu snorted and frowned slightly.

The two walked slowly. Hu Mengdie came over after the dance class closed and did not drive. Li Zhuangsheng was also glad that the other party did not drive, otherwise the two of them in that small space would make him even more awkward.

There are only two days until the fifteenth day, and the moon is bright in the sky, almost perfect. Hu Mengdie raised her chin slightly, her beautiful face seemed to compete with the bright moon.

In other words, she is another bright moon.

"The Lantern Festival is coming soon, let's go to Nanjing to watch the fireworks. I heard from my friends that the fireworks at Confucius Temple are very beautiful, and there is also a lantern festival." Hu Mengdie said softly.

"No...I still have to go to work." Li Zhuangsheng replied dryly.

At this time, what he was thinking about was the fireworks and lantern festival that Hu Mengdie and Qi Haoyu had seen. She must have been very sweet in her heart at that time, thinking about it forever.

For no reason, Li Zhuangsheng thought of the short videos he had watched, those youthful and beautiful clips of high school students. He always watched them with envy: Why was my youth not like this? What a shame!

However, it was okay to be a supporting character in a youth film. Suddenly, it was too ugly to find out that the person I wanted to be with was the heroine in the film and the hero was not me, as if I was an ugly goblin who had occupied the princess.

The cold wind whistled at night. I don’t know what happened this year. It didn’t get warmer after the New Year. It was so cold.

I should have taken a taxi back, but I forgot to mention it at first, and Hu Mengdie didn't mention it either.

Li Zhuangsheng put his hands in his pockets, not wanting to hold hands with Hu Mengdie. Hu Mengdie didn't seem to notice, and took advantage of the situation to hold his arm.

"Go ahead, go ahead, take a half-day off, we'll drive there early after get off work, just in time in the evening, and just come back the next morning... I really want to go see it!"

Hu Mengdie gently shook Li Zhuangsheng and sounded coquettish.

Li Zhuangsheng shook his head and said awkwardly: "I can't do it... I still have to write a novel. You La Mengke and Xie Jiangqing can go together... I'll pay you how much it costs."

Hu Mengdie sighed helplessly, but soon smiled and leaned on Li Zhuangsheng's shoulder: "Okay, then I won't go either. It's the same for us watching the lantern festival in the county!"

"You can go if you want, don't worry about me."

"But I am your wife. As long as I am with you, no matter where I am..."

[Hello everyone, this is my wife! 】

[I want to be with Brother Qi forever! 】

The images in the video forcefully and suddenly broke into his mind again, forcing him to recall it. Li Zhuangsheng felt a tightness in his chest and suddenly felt a little out of breath.

The next moment, he was filled with shame and anger, and the fists in his pockets wanted to bleed.

"What's wrong?" Hu Mengdie felt Li Zhuangsheng's body suddenly tense.

What's wrong with me? What's wrong with me? What does it have to do with you! Li Zhuangsheng shouted in his heart and his face turned red.

But he still didn't say anything. He suppressed the urge to express his feelings and remained silent.

She shouldn't be angry at Hu Mengdie. At least, she didn't do anything wrong. She is innocent and she shouldn't be treated with such an attitude.

"I'm fine."

Li Zhuangsheng turned away and forced out an ugly smile.

After returning home, Li Zhuangsheng immediately got into his study, sat in front of the computer, and said he wanted to write a novel.

"When will you finish writing tonight?" Hu Mengdie hugged Li Zhuangsheng from behind and gently rubbed his head against his face.

"I don't know... I asked for leave yesterday, and readers are already scolding me. I have to write more today." Li Zhuangsheng smiled.

"Then I'll read and wait for you here..."

"There's someone in the room that I can't write about. You should go back to the room and sleep first. I'll come over after I finish writing."

Hu Mengdie slowly lowered her head, blinked her eyes, and her nose felt sore. But when he raised his head again, all the disappointment in his eyes had disappeared, and he kissed the corner of Li Zhuangsheng's mouth gently: "Well, then I won't disturb you here. I'll go back to the house and wait for you."

"I don't have to tell you what time it is. You can go to bed first. You don't have to wait for me."

"I'm waiting for you."

Hu Mengdie said and gently closed the study door for him.

The moment the door was closed, Li Zhuangsheng could finally relax for a while. He raised his hand and lightly wiped his mouth, as if to wipe away the kiss mark just now.

He leaned on the armchair, with thousands of thoughts in his mind, and whispered softly: "The world is as short as a spring dream, and human feelings are as thin as autumn clouds. There is no need to care about hard work, everything has its destiny... Well, everything has its destiny."

"Brother-in-law is back?"

Hu Mengke knocked on the door.

Li Zhuangsheng immediately sat upright and said, "Please come in."

Hu Mengke brought a big bowl with a smile and said lightly, "I cooked rock sugar pear today and left some for you. Drink it while it's hot. Don't work too hard."

"Well, well... so many."

"It's okay if you can't finish it. Just put it in a bowl and I'll clean it up tomorrow."

Li Zhuangsheng slowly put the bowl on the table: "Xuanxuan, are you okay? I'm sorry. I have something to do these two days and am not at home..."

Hu Mengke smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay. You can just be busy with your work. Xuanxuan is very healthy recently. It's enough for me to take care of her by myself... Do you want to bring her over and let you take a look?"

"No, she should be sleeping, so don't disturb her."

"Well, then I won't interrupt your writing. Come on, but don't stay up too late. It will hurt your body. My sister and I will feel bad!"

"Mmm Good."

That night, Li Zhuangsheng still slept in the study. He just sent Hu Mengdie a WeChat message in the early hours of the morning, as if he was deceiving her, saying that it was too late and she must have fallen asleep. In order not to disturb her, he rested in the study.

In the bedroom, after receiving the text message, Hu Mengdie silently put down her cell phone that was glowing dimly in the dark night, hugged her knees with her hands, and slowly buried her face.
