Chapter 173

No one listened to the phone for a long time, and the time has reached 9:30. According to the normal time, this time, Gu nianbin should arrive. There was a long beep from the mobile phone. Du Xiaoxian was a little flustered, but she didn't want to be seen. She laughed and said, "maybe it's snowing. It's hard to walk. I'll come back later."

Ah Ling took a look at Du Hua Yue and said, "yes, the road is not easy. After all, it's at night. The road is slippery and will be late. Let's go to the house and keep warm. Let's eat and wait."

Du Hua Yue hesitated: "or I'd better go first. You go inside. There's no one around here. Don't come out again."

"Brother Yue, don't go," Du Xiaoxian said. "There are no buses now, and there are few taxis. You can stay here for one night and leave tomorrow morning."

"Yes, don't go. The young master hasn't come back. There are only two of us left in such a big room. It's very frightening. Don't go."

Du Huayue didn't want to live here. After listening to a Ling's words, he nodded and pushed Du Xiaoxian into the room: "I've been out for a long time. Go out and warm up."

A Ling put the fruit on the tea table. The three of them watched TV and ate. Du Xiaoxian looked at the big clock beside the wall from time to time. Ah Ling and Du Hua Yue looked at each other, but they didn't know how to comfort her. They had to keep silent.

On TV, there are skits. They are the new upstarts in the sketch industry in the past two years. The burden one by one shakes, which makes everyone laugh. Ah Ling and Du Huayue are completely attracted by the sketches and laugh forward and backward from time to time. Although Du Xiaoxian also stares at the TV, he is absent-minded. Suddenly, the sound of "Bang --" shocked Du Xiaoxian, but the big bell rang. She looked up and saw that the copper pointer was pointing to eleven o'clock.

She was stunned for a moment and whispered, "it's so late."

A Ling looked at her, "Xiaoxian, the weather is bad today. Maybe the young master will not come back. Don't wait for him. It's the same for us to keep up with you! "

"He said he would come back." Du Xiaoxian picked up the mobile phone and started to call again. This time, there was a conversation, but it was a mechanical repetition of a female voice. After a while, she said, "I'm sorry, the phone you dialed has been turned off. Please wait a moment. Sorry，thenumberyoudailedhas，beenswitchedoff！”

"How could that happen?" Du Xiaoxian looked at Du Huayue: "why did he turn off the power? Is something wrong on the way

"No, don't think about it," Du said. "Today is the new year's Eve after all. Maybe his parents left him to watch the new year together? Or maybe he's drunk too much, and they won't let him out. "

"But he doesn't come back, why don't you call me?" Du Xiaoxian was very worried: "he has never been like this. Something must have happened!"

"Don't worry, I'll check," Du Huayue used his mobile phone to access the Internet, and checked whether there was any accident on the highway leading to Fenglei town? Sure enough, there was one, but it was only two cars that scraped, and it was not Gu nianbin's car.

Du Xiaoxian was relieved, "as long as nothing happened. Maybe he really had a drink and it was hard to drive, so he didn't come back. We don't have to wait for him. "

"Ah Ling said:" anyway, we have to watch the new year. We have to shoot at 12 o'clock. We can sleep after 12 o'clock. "

"No problem." Du Huayue patted Du Xiaoxian on the shoulder and said with a smile, "if you can't make it, go to sleep now. When it's time to wake you up, don't blame us."

"I'll stay till twelve, too." Du Xiaoxian said to the sofa, a small body nest in, eyes blankly looking at the TV, but showed a bit lonely.

Du Huayue deliberately teased her: "why, brother Gu can't come back, you can't sleep?"

As expected, Du Xiaoxian turned red and reached out to hit Du Huayue: "brother a Yue, you bully people!"

"Where did I bully you?" Du Huayue said with a smile. "You see, if elder brother Gu doesn't come back, you will be listless. My brother, who has been called by you for more than ten years, is really sad!"

"Who said I was listless," Du Xiaoxian stood up and looked out of the window. "Let's go out for a while. There are still a lot of fireworks."

"Let's go. Let's go for a while. Anyway, we'll set off firecrackers for the new year." Du Hua Yue called a Ling: "you go with me. Let's put some together. That's good-looking."

When Du Xiaoxian was setting off fireworks, Gu nianbin was drinking with Xia Nanze. After dinner, he wanted to leave, but he never had a chance to speak. First, Gu Guangxian and Xia Deren asked him about the company, then talked about some prospects for the future, and even talked about the buyback of Gu's Centennial building.

Fang Yaru and Mrs. Xia told him how difficult Xia Xiaowan had been in foreign countries in recent years. They only hoped that she could have a peaceful life after returning home. Mrs. Xia is more earnest and sincere, asking him to take care of Xia Xiaowan, who are close relatives and friends. Miss bin really doesn't want to have a showdown on the eve of the new year's Eve, and qianggian perfunctorily says yes.

Before he could find an excuse to go away, Gu Shanshan, Xia Nanze and Xia Xiaowan came and surrounded him. Gu Shanshan was always chirping. Xia Nanze took a cup of wine to drink with him. Maybe he borrowed wine and didn't communicate with him for several years. But Xia Xiaowan didn't speak much, but his eyes contained it Too many emotions make it hard for him to ignore. All of a sudden, he realized that this scene was aimed at him tonight. His parents knew his mind, Gu Shanshan also knew, maybe Xia Xiaowan also knew. So when he came back today, they didn't intend to let him go again. Unless he broke up and broke up unhappily, and they were sure that he would not, because today is the new year's Eve, the day of family reunion, singing and laughing, if he must fall out with his family on such a day, and do not say that it is bad to hear, his father's body alone can not make him heartless. This world not only has the love, also has the family affection, he is the most affectionate filial piety person, if is really like this, he really cannot pass own that pass.Because she was upset, she naturally drank a lot of wine, and Gu Shanshan was very clever tonight. From time to time, she leaned on him or took his arm to act coquettish. He knew she was deliberately distracting him. And his heart is really a little confused.

In the end, he was drunk. Xia Nanze and Xiao Bonian helped him to his room to have a rest. Looking at his staggering back, Gu Shanshan finally breathed a sigh of relief. The other party, Yaru, said, "it's done."

Fang Yaru shook his head: "do you think he doesn't understand? It's just that I don't want to tear my face tonight. "

"What kind of overpowering drug did Du Xiaoxian give him?" Gu Shanshan said angrily: "Xiao Wan didn't come back. Now people are in front of him, but his heart is not."

"After the new year, I'll go to see the child," Fang said. "Although I haven't been together for a long time, I can see that she is not bad hearted. It should make sense. As long as she disappears automatically, nianbin will turn back. Anyway, we can't get a maid in the house

"Mom, don't worry," Gu Shanshan said firmly, "this time I'm on your side. We can bring my brother back

"I hope so," Fang Yaru sighed and asked, "have your uncle Xia's family returned to their rooms?"

"Aunt Xia is back in the room. Uncle Xia is talking to his father. Xiao Wan is in my room. She sleeps with me tonight

Fang Yaru nodded and asked, "where's your brother's mobile phone?"

"I shut down the machine and put it back secretly." Gu Shanshan couldn't help laughing when she talked about it.

"Still smile," Fang Yaru poked on her forehead: "when he wakes up tomorrow morning, how can he lose his temper?"

"Then I will not admit that he was drunk and turned off by himself. What's the matter with me?"

"You're clever." Fang Yaru poked her again with an angry smile.

"Oh, Ma, don't poke at me. I'm not a child anymore." Gu Shanshan pursed her mouth and said, "I'm the host now."

"Host, are you going back to your room?" Xia Xiaowan poked his head at the door and came in.

Gu Shanshan laughed and said, "Mom, I'll go back to my room."

"Go on, you two sisters go back to your room and talk, and I'm going to have a rest."

Gu Shanshan took Xia Xiaowan's arm and went through the corridor. Red lanterns were hung all the way. When the wind stopped, the red lanterns stood still and glowed with red light. Although it was still late at night, it was also full of joy. Xia Xiaowan laughed: "when I was a child, I watched the red lantern hanging high. At the beginning, it was such a red lantern. I thought at that time, did I borrow your ancestral home to shoot it?"

"Do you like it?" Gu Shanshan teased her: "if you marry my brother, I'll do it in this old house. I'll hang red lanterns for you, OK?"

"Look at you, I'll tell you. You're serious." Xia Xiaowan took a breath of cold air and said, "tonight I see that Nian bin elder brother always has some strange, can't see me unhappy?"

"No," Gu Shanshan said, "he is too happy to see you, so he looks silly."

"I think he is absent-minded," Xia Xiaowan looked at the red lanterns all the way and asked, "is that the little maid you told me..."

"What's the matter with her?" Gu Shanshan said disapprovingly. "It's just a little maid. You are incomparable in my brother's heart."

Xia Xiaowan laughed: "so, I still have hope."

"Of course, you are the only daughter-in-law of the Gu family," Gu Shanshan nodded affirmatively, and then suddenly frowned: "but how did you suddenly figure it out? You and Jiang Kaiwei... "

Xia Xiaowan's expression changed slightly, and soon he gave a low smile, as if to laugh at himself: "my affair with him ended five years ago, but it's just my wishful thinking. Since the current is merciless, why should I go to the muddy water again

She was passing by under the lantern, a brilliant red reflected in her eyes, as if it was a broken streamer, instantly bright and extinguished, can not really see.

"That's good." Gu Shanshan said: "in recent years, for your sake, my brother has been fighting with Jiang Kaiwei. I don't understand. Why did you like his domineering childe in those days? "

Xia Xiaowan chuckled: "you also know that it was that year, when I was not sensible, I was young, who had not made a muddle headed time!"

Gu Shanshan pushed open the door and said, "it doesn't matter if you make mistakes. What matters is to correct them. Now, if you follow my brother, you are going to be the happiest woman in the world."

Xia Xiaowan went into the warm room, but he shivered: "Oh, it's cold outside. I'm sleepy. Go to sleep."

Gu Shanshan refused to let her sleep: "talk about it again. Anyway, Xiao Bofang will wake up after a long time."
