Chapter 72 Chapter 72 Happy New Year, I...

Time flies as the year draws to a close, and in the blink of an eye it is New Year's Eve, the day for family reunions.

Liang Zhixia sat in the car, looking up at the red light ahead, feeling restless.

"Do you think Grandpa will like me? Should I buy some more gifts for Grandpa? Should we load the gifts for others into the car?"

When the green light came on, Lu Quan started the car and chuckled to comfort: "Zhizhi, calm down. I promise they will like the gifts you gave them. Are you sleepy? Do you want to take a nap first?"

Liang Zhixia yawned a little and blinked hard to wake up her brain quickly. She looked firm: "I'm not sleepy. I'm very energetic now."

The Lu family's family dinner was at four or five in the afternoon. Liang Zhixia looked at the time and said, "Don't we really need to help earlier?"

Lu Quan touched his somewhat cold fingers, kneaded them and said, "Yes, Auntie, just wait for dinner."

Liang Zhixia thought about it and found that there was really nothing to worry about. He had to look out the window to ease his nervousness.

This was his first meeting with Lu Quan's family, and he hoped to leave a good impression on them.

Although Lu Quan kept saying that they would all like him.

Half an hour later, the car stopped at a manor.

The manor was very large, and it was low-key and luxurious everywhere.

In the huge living room, there was a set of classical huanghuali mahogany furniture, and the chandelier above was obviously very valuable.

Lu Quan noticed his gaze and leaned over to his ear and said, "I took it last year, and the old man liked it very much."

"Did you give it to him as a gift?"

Lu Quan frowned slightly, "No, my father gave it to me."

Just as Liang Zhixia was admiring everything, there was a sound of a cane knocking on the ground on the stairs. He immediately retracted his gaze and stood there as if he was frozen, his fingers trembling nervously.

Lu Quan reached out and held his hand, smiling and said, "Grandpa likes you very much."

Walking closer, he saw the grandfather that Lu Quan was talking about.

Unlike what he imagined, Lu Quan's grandfather looked very kind, not skinny, but a little... round.

"Hello, Grandpa." When the old man walked in front of them, he subconsciously called out.

Grandpa Lu responded with a smile: "You must be Xiao Xia, right? I often hear Lu Quan mention you. Today I saw you in person, and it's just like what he said, you are well-behaved and good-looking, you can tell at first glance that you are a good kid."

Liang Zhixia's cheeks turned red when he was praised. He would be very happy when Lu Quan praised him, but he would be a little embarrassed when his elders praised him.

Lu Quan leaned close to his ear: "I told you, grandpa likes you very much."

The old man's voice came from the front: "You don't have to get so close to me in front of an old man, right? You are still showing your affection in front of me? Are you afraid that I will break you up?"

Liang Zhixia pushed Lu Quan away with a red face and whispered: "From now on, you are not allowed to get so close to me."

"..."

Lu Quan was silent. If he had known earlier, he would have just stayed at home and spent time alone.

The old man saw Lu Quan's frustration and smiled even more happily. He waved to Liang Zhixia: "Xiao Xia, can you play chess?"

Liang Zhixia shook her head honestly: "No."

The old man: "It doesn't matter, come, I'll teach you."

The housekeeper standing beside him flashed a trace of surprise on his face. It seems that the old man really likes this boy.

Just when Liang Zhixia and Mr. Lu were learning to play chess, Lu Quan's parents and Lu Manman also arrived.

Liang Zhixia hurriedly stood up and greeted them one by one. He noticed that Lu Quan and his parents just nodded.

The old man looked at Lu's father with dissatisfaction and said to Liang Zhixia: "Xia Xia, don't worry about them. Come, let's continue playing chess. You are very talented in this aspect."

At the same time, Lu Quan and Lu's father had the same expression when they heard this. Grandpa/Dad, you didn't say that back then.

Although Mr. Lu wanted to continue teaching, Lu Manman kept pestering Liang Zhixia after hitting a wall with Lu Quan.

Liang Zhixia looked at Grandpa Lu apologetically. The old man touched Lu Manman's head and said kindly, "Go play."

So he was pulled by Lu Manman to the yard outside to play. Lu Manman was like a little penguin, round and plump, running from here to there, panting from the heat, and sweat on his forehead.

"Xia Xia, let's set off fireworks tonight! They're so beautiful!"

Lu Manman stuck out his tongue like a puppy, and sat side by side with Liang Zhixia. The two of them looked up at the clouds in the sky at the same time.

Until Lu Quan came to call them to eat.

At the dinner table, after Grandpa Lu picked up his chopsticks, others started to pick up their chopsticks.

The family banquet was very sumptuous, with several dishes that Liang Zhixia had never seen, let alone eaten.

The Lu family did not advocate the drinking table culture, and only Grandpa Lu and Lu's father drank some wine.

Liang Zhixia kept eating and didn't even raise her head.

Not only did Lu Quan pick up food for him, but Lu's mother also picked up food for him. If Lu Quan hadn't stopped him, Lu Manman would have wanted to stuff the saliva-filled thing in his baby's bowl into his baby's bowl.

After dinner, Mr. Lu waved to the housekeeper, and after a while, the housekeeper brought over a few red envelopes.

The old man looked up at Liang Zhixia and said with a smile: "This is a red envelope for Xia Xia. Come and play often when you have time. I am an old man and I am bored sometimes."

Liang Zhixia took it subconsciously: "Thank you, Grandpa."

He touched the thickness and his pupils shrank slightly. It was so thick.

Later, he also received red envelopes from Lu's father and mother, which were also very thick.

He seemed to have become a rich man all

of a sudden. It started snowing outside at some point.

Lu Manman pulled him and ran out, still muttering about setting off fireworks.

Lu Quan followed, picked up Lu Manman, put him far away from the fireworks, and said coldly: "Stand here obediently and don't move."

Lu Manman said aggrievedly.

Liang Zhixia was laughing on the side, and then was arranged by Lu Quan to sit next to Lu Manman.

"..."

Large pieces of fireworks rushed into the sky, blooming in various shapes, very dazzling and beautiful.

He couldn't help but look up and stare at the sky like Lu Manman.

After the fireworks burned out, he sighed like Lu Manman.

Is it gone so soon?

Lu Quan looked at the two of them and felt helpless.

He took a few fairy wands from the side and said lightly: "Let's play."

Liang Zhixia happily drew a circle with the lit fairy wands, and Lu Manman followed suit, but drew a weird picture.

Lu Quan did not participate in it. He took a camera and took pictures of his wife. When Lu Manman appeared in the camera, he paused and did not move away, but only took a few pictures.

Taking pictures of his wife is more important.

Lu Manman couldn't stay up too late, and was so sleepy that tears came out. Lu's father came over and picked him up, and said to them: "You should go to bed early too, and you don't have to get up early tomorrow morning."

Liang Zhixia said obediently: "Okay, uncle."

After the last firework stick was set off, Lu Quan took his hand and went upstairs.

Liang Zhixia had just taken off his clothes to take a shower when he saw the bathroom door open again and Lu Quan squeezed in.

"What are you doing?"

Lu Quan walked towards him while taking off his clothes, his eyes deep: "It's obvious, baby."

The moment Liang Zhixia's mouth was covered, he realized that he was too naive.

In the wolf's den, he couldn't escape at all.

The slippery sound of shower gel on the skin and the panting in the bathroom became a symphony on the New Year's night.

Liang Zhixia was forced to look up, his tongue was numb, and it rested softly on his lips.

Lu Quan stood behind him, holding his waist with both hands, and his bony fingers brushed his belly from time to time. His voice was low and magnetic: "Baby, guess where you can go this time?"

The hot breath swept across his ear, and Liang Zhixia couldn't speak at all, his eyes were blurred, and his body trembled slightly.

Lu Quan was very satisfied with his reaction. His fingertips lifted the wet ends of the boy's hair and kissed his neck with passion, leaving a string of wet kisses.

Liang Zhixia couldn't help sobbing. Her white fingertips sank into Lu Quan's back. When he raised his eyes, his eyes met Lu Quan's. He knew that he couldn't escape tonight.

After a few times, he leaned against Lu Quan weakly. He felt drowsy and carried to the bed, but he also felt like he was on a boat, rising and falling with the waves, and couldn't stop for a moment.

During this period, his throat was hoarse. He vaguely remembered that Lu Quan fed him a mouthful of water with his mouth.

He hooked Lu Quan with the tip of his tongue and didn't let him leave, like a person desperately absorbing water on a desert journey. In the end, he couldn't tell whether it was water or some other liquid.

Later, he didn't remember how long he had been tossed and turned. He tried to open his eyes and found that the sky outside the window had turned white.

Before he completely lost consciousness, he raised his hand and put it on Lu Quan's shoulder and shook.

He thought vaguely that they seemed to have been doing it all night long, which showed that people could really die if they did it all night long!

The next day, early morning of New Year’s Day.

Liang Zhixia felt like she had been hit by a truck last night. Her whole body ached and she couldn't even turn over.

A wave of heat surged from behind him. Liang Zhixia just raised her hand to hit him, and she saw the silver ring on her finger, which had been stained with his body temperature.

He paused, and caught a glimpse of a hint of red under the pillow. He lifted a corner and found a very thick red envelope under the pillow.

"You gave it to me?"

Lu Quan hummed, held the man in his arms, rubbed his waist with his hands, and said in a low and hoarse voice: "Happy New Year, baby, I love you."

Liang Zhixia clutched the red envelope, raised her head and rubbed Lu Quan's chin, and said softly: "Happy New Year, I... love you too."

Maybe it will be nice to have Lu Quan by my side in the days to come.

It would be better if he could learn moderation.
