Chapter 225
Because the New Year’s Eve is approaching, according to previous practices, Lewis had to go to Huo’s New Year in the United States.
But both Laura’s parents are in the hospital, so after discussing with each other, the Huo family decided to spend the New Year in Cohasset this year.
Because Huo has a large family, and the old man and the old lady are getting older, Huo’s specially launched a special plane and brought everyone over.
These days, Huo Jingran was in the Nanshan Courtyard of Scott, but when the Huo family came back, she naturally needed to go back to the old house.
Therefore, on February 13, Huo Jingran packed up her things and left the courtyard.
“Xiaoran, I’ll see you.” Scott picked up her suitcase, held her hand, and walked to the front of the car.
When starting, he looked at the calendar and said, “Xiaoran, can you spare some time to come out tomorrow, such as afternoon or evening?”
Huo Jingran was thinking that she might not be free when she returned home, so she shouldn’t make any extravagances, but with a glance, she saw the numbers displayed on the calendar.
Today is February 13th. Isn’t tomorrow a Valentine’s Day?
Her original ambiguity suddenly got stuck in her throat, and changed to: “I don’t know what excuses to make.”
Scott’s heart suddenly became happy, and he took her by the hand: “Just say to see a Chinese medicine doctor?”
“Yeah.” Huo Jingran nodded.
Scott was happier, raised her hand and put it to his lips to k!ss.
Huo Jingran shrank, but she was just as interesting. Without force, her hand was still in Scott’s palm.
He turned a corner, clasping his fingers instead.
Huo Jingran lowered her eyes and looked at the hands they were holding together, a sweet feeling filled her heart.
However, along with it, there are some worries about the future.
She cast her gaze out of the window, looking at the bare tree trunks on both sides of the road, and occasionally pedestrians hurried past. A pair of elderly people walked in the wind, helping each other to tighten their scarves.
Suddenly, she felt that maybe she didn’t need to think about that much.
As Scott said before, if she is really tired and has no strength, just leave it to him, and he will take care of everything.
So, Huo Jingran turned her head and said to him: “Then I will call you ahead of time before I come out tomorrow?”
The corners of Scott’s lips deepened with a smile: “Okay, Xiaoran, I’ll wait for you.”
With that, he just passed a traffic light intersection, he stopped the car, grabbed her body, bowed his head and k!ssed it.
But the red light was very short, and he was k!ssing intensely, and a lot of horns broke into his ears.
Scott reluctantly let go of Huo Jingran, and k!ssed her on the cheek again, then released the brake and stepped on the accelerator.
It is really rare to drive so tired and crookedly. However, Huo Jingran had the feeling of returning to when she was just together.
She felt that the dry place in her heart was slowly injecting warmth. Although it could not be compared with when she was young, it also made her look forward to.
When approaching the Huo’s old house, Huo Jingran asked Scott to stop the car.
“It’s only a five-minute walk, so I can go by myself.” She unfastened her seat belt.
Scott didn’t insist, and helped her take down the suitcase. Seeing Huo Jingran’s hands were bare, he said something.
He didn’t have gloves either, so he took a small towel out, raised Huo Jingran’s hand, and wrapped her up: “That’s it.”
Huo Jingran laughed: “I have never seen such a glove.”
“What kind of gloves you wear are good-looking.” Scott said, stretching his arms to hug her, couldn’t help but clasped the back of her head and gave a k!ss. Repeatedly emphasized: “Tomorrow I will wait for your call.”
“Yeah.” Huo Jingran waved her hand: “Then I’ll go back.”
“Okay.” Scott let go of her and watched her leave.
Huo Jingran turned around and walked more than ten meters, always feeling that there seemed to be a look behind him.
She took a deep breath and turned her head and glanced.
At the front of the parked off-road vehicle beside the road, Scott stood straight, with his hands in his pockets, and kept looking at her direction.
At this moment, the sky was high and the clouds were light, and the winter sun was clearer than usual. When it fell on him, the whole person seemed to be coated with a warm light.
She felt her heartbeat missed a beat, and she was so nervous that she was at a loss.
And he smiled at her and waved his hand.
She quickly retracted her gaze and accelerated her pace.
The substantive gaze behind her still followed closely until she reached the turning point and slowly disappeared.
Her ears were burning badly and her cheeks were hot. Huo Jingran turned her head and couldn’t see Scott, so she could slowly calm her heart like a deer.
When she walked to the door of her house, she received a WeChat message from him, and when she opened it was a picture of her leaving.
She suddenly thought, what a pity, she didn’t even think of taking a picture of him just now. He must look good just now.
After thinking about it this way, she realized something. She couldn’t help but sigh, it turned out that after so many years, even if her heart is tired and scared, she still likes him, hopelessly.
As soon as Huo Jingran arrived at the door of the old house, the butler greeted him: “Miss, why don’t we let us pick you up?”
Huo Jingran said that the company dormitory she had lived in before was right next to the company and it was convenient to go to work. Lewis did not tell the truth, nor did her family question it.
At this moment, she smiled: “It’s okay, my colleague sent me here.”
Because the New Year is about to come, and everyone from the Huo family will come over in the afternoon, so the servants are making the final decorations with lanterns and festivities.
In the afternoon, Laura and Lewis went to the private airport to pick up the plane together. The Huo family drove several cars before they came back together.
Laura’s parents were still unable to leave the hospital, so after receiving them, everyone chatted for a while, and Lewis’s parents proposed to visit her in-laws in the hospital.
Two days ago, Shi Jinyan took Ouyang Mi back to the United States to reunite with family, so today, the only child in this generation is Huo Chenxi.
However, he was very busy, led by his grandparents, and came to the physical therapy room of the hospital together.
We are friends for many years, now we see each other again, can’t help but sigh.
Fortunately, everyone is still there, as long as they are recuperated, they can slowly recover.
I haven’t seen nature for many years and there are many topics to talk about, so Laura gave the space to the elders.
She rushed to Lewis next to her and said, “Speaking deeply, I think everything about us is getting better and better.”
He leaned to her ear: “Do you think you should marry me when you are eight?”
Laura couldn’t help but smiled: “Eight years old? Will you take me to climb trees all over the yard to marry you?”
Lewis took a deep bite of her earlobe: “I will take you into my wall.”
The two talked and laughed, and Lewis thought about business: “Baby, I will take you to a place tomorrow.”
Laura raised her eyebrows: “Love. Arrangements for People’s Day?”
Lewis squeezed her face: “What should I do if my wife is too smart?”
“What about Brother Xi?” Laura said: “Shall we take him?”
As he was talking, Huo Chenxi seemed to have heard it, and looked at Lewis eagerly.
Lewis raised his eyebrows deeply at his son, and said nothing.
Huo Chenxi had already understood it and smiled at Laura: “Mommy, I’m going to play with my grandparents tomorrow, so I won’t disturb the world of you two!”
Lewis: “Good son, so sensible! Stay with your grandparents!”
Huo Chenxi stuck out his tongue.
That night, everyone gathered at Huo’s house.
Before, Hector also lived outside, but when his family came back, he also moved back, so it was extremely lively.
When Shi Jinyan got married, Hector took Huo Chenxi and Ouyang Mi to play in the snow, so Huo Chenxi liked him very much.
After eating, he stuck to Hector’s side: “Second Uncle, do you have any arrangements for tomorrow? Or else we two single dogs will go out to play video games together?”
Although his words are not loud, but the child’s voice is very penetrating, so Li Meizhi still heard it.
She turned her head and said to Hector: “Hector, you see that Lewis’s son is so old, and you are not too young. Do you have a girl you like?”
Hector’s face became stiff, and then shook his head.
Li Meizhi sighed: “Let’s do it, it happens that Jingran’s blind date will also come tomorrow. We will also arrange a blind date for you.”
When Hector heard this, he quickly interrupted his mother: “Mom, I’m not going.”
“You kid, you don’t want to find a girlfriend when you are so old. Do you want to stay alone?” Li Meizhi said, “We are still waiting for you to hold our grandchildren!”
“Don’t you have a grandson?” Hector said.
“Brother Xi should also have a companion, and you are not young anymore.” Li Meizhi said: “Let’s do it, let’s come back this time and watch you finish your life before leaving.”
Hector: “”
After Li Meizhi was gone, Huo Chenxi stuck out his tongue at Hector. “Second Uncle, I was wrong.”
Hector helplessly: “Forget it.”
Anyway, every time you go to a gathering of relatives during the New Year, a single person will always receive 10,000 points of harm.
But at this moment, Huo Jingran, who was sitting aside, was a little anxious, Zheng Mingze was coming? What should she do tomorrow?
A Chinese New Year can be said to be joy and sorrow for several families, and February 13th is Barton’s birthday.
In fact, Moli Gu didn’t know it at first. She asked that day. Barton said that he was exactly one and a half years older than her. His birthday was February 13th in the Gregorian calendar.
This day is very delicate, just the day before the Valentine’s Day. If the two festivals are celebrated together, it would actually be ambiguous.
However, in the current situation, Moli Gu would naturally not bring up the love story.
Moreover, the first day, she also chatted with Barton and asked him how to celebrate his birthday, and when he said he went to the doctor, she said that he would have dinner together.
At 5 o’clock that afternoon, Moli Gu picked out clothes for a long time. She chose a white sweater and gray A-line skirt, put on leggings, boots, and a short down jacket.
She took a picture in the mirror, um, very much like her when she was a student.
After taking the cakes and fillings she had made for the whole afternoon, Moli Gu went out.
When she arrived at Barton’s courtyard, he was still busy.
Seeing her coming, he nodded at her, said a little while, and continued to prescribe the patient.
Until six o’clock in the afternoon, the last person was sent away. He asked his assistant to hang up the sign of’I have stopped seeing the doctor, come back tomorrow’ at the door, and got up and rushed to Moli Gu and said, “Sorry, I kept you waiting.”
She pointed to the cake: “Where to eat it?”
“My house.” Barton said casually.
