Chapter 783: Started Quarreling

On New Year’s Eve, Jun Shiyan was very busy and kept watch over her the whole night. He returned just as the sun rose, as there were still a lot of things to deal with in the Gu Family.

“It’s New Year’s Eve. Why would I ask him to come?” Although that was what Nangong Lengyu said, she felt a little gloomy when she thought that she would be all alone during the first Spring Festival she was spending in China.

“Isn’t Director Chen coming back to celebrate the new year with you?” Ling Sheng knew that Director Chen was a workaholic, but was he not coming back for the Lunar New Year? Even Senior Fang Hua and the others had gone home to celebrate the New Year, and they had said that they would start work on the fifth day of the lunar year.

“He was called back by my father.” Nangong Lengyu smiled and asked, “Since Xiaoqi is fine now, you should be going home for the Lunar New Year too, right!”

Ling Sheng nodded. They had to go home to celebrate the new year for sure. If they did not go home, her grandpa would not let them off. Their trip home had already been delayed again and again, which had made her grandpa unhappy. If they did not go back for the New Year’s Eve reunion dinner, Grandpa would likely skin them alive!

Xu Xi had brought over a lot for breakfast. There were food like porridge, milk, soy milk, buns, and steamed dumplings. They had been packed from the Fragrant Cauldron Restaurant and looked delicious. However, Nangong Lengyu’s stomach was weak, and she had just woken up so her body was weak. Hence, she only ate a bowl of porridge brought over by Ling Sheng.

“Sheng Sheng, who did you learn this cooking skill from?” Nangong Lengyu ate with great satisfaction. Both her stomach and heart felt warm, as though the food she made was different from any others outside. It was obviously the same type of porridge, but it looked especially delicious.

Ling Sheng sent Huo Ci a message and ate right there, helping Nangong Lengyu finish the breakfast that she couldn’t eat. Upon hearing her question, she said half-truthfully, “I learned it from my father.”

Nangong Lengyu was stunned. “Your foster father?”

Ling Sheng just remembered that Nangong Lengyu did not know that Huo Ci was her father. She nodded in agreement. He was not her foster father, but her biological father. He was her biological father in another world. She nodded vaguely and said, “Actually, I learned this on my own.”

Nangong Lengyu smiled lovingly. She had a strong appetite when she saw Ling Sheng eat, so she asked her for half a bun.

Knowing that she might have to step into the new year alone in the hospital, Ling Sheng felt quite terrible and wanted to stay and keep her company. However, she could not drag their return out with Grandpa. If Grandpa found out that she spent the New Year with Sister Yu but did not return home, he would definitely be very sad if she did not go home.

She felt like she was in a tough dilemma.

“You don’t have to worry. I don’t celebrate the Lunar New Year overseas,” Nangong Lengyu comforted her. “Go back quickly. We hired an auntie. She’ll take care of me.”

“Auntie Yu, I’ll come and see you first thing tomorrow.” After saying that, Ling Sheng changed her mind. “If I can go home quickly after the show ends tonight, I’ll come and find you first.”

“Sure,” Nangong Lengyu hugged her. “Good luck. I’ll wait in front of the television to watch you.”

Even though Ling Sheng had left, Nangong Lengyu was still looking at the door in a daze. When she regained her senses, she looked toward the sofa. Sheng Sheng had been sitting there just a short while ago. Her eyes felt a little sore. She did not know why she was so sad.

Although the Nangong Family had gone overseas long ago and their assets were all overseas too, their father insisted that they celebrate the Spring Festival every year. The whole family had to go back and celebrate the Lunar New Year together.

This was one of the few times she had spent Lunar New Year outside. This was also the first time she felt so sad and miserable, especially when she thought of Sheng Sheng and Xiaoqi returning to the Huo Family to celebrate the New Year’s with Huo Ci. She felt even worse.

When Ling Sheng returned with her son’s favorite prawn dumplings, boneless chicken feet, and walnut pastry, she heard her father and grandpa quarreling again.
