Chen Jie looked around the room and asked Dong Yuanqing, who was sitting motionless at the dining table,""Why are you alone at home?”
Dong Yuanqing narrowed her eyes." Little Jing, that guy who values women over friends. She abandoned me and went to spend time with me alone!"”
Sometimes, happiness came too suddenly, and it really made people feel at a loss. He had been looking forward to having a meal with Dong Yuanqing alone for a long time, but he didn't expect that his dream would come true today.
"Then, you let her go?"”
"Xiao Jing's boyfriend came to pick her up with a big bouquet of roses. Do you think I should stop Xiao Jing from staring at me at home?”
Dong Yuanqing's phone rang.
She looked at the familiar number flashing on her phone screen and hesitated.
"Why didn't you pick up the phone? Answer it!" Chen Jie.
Dong Yuanqing looked at him and answered the call."Hello, Uncle."
"Happy New Year. Oh, I won't be going.”
"Someone will accompany me for New Year's Eve dinner."
She looked at him again." No, not boyfriend. Roommate."”
"Yiyi is also happy."
"Second Sister, can you go and see Yiyi when you have time?”
"Mhm, okay. Goodbye." It was a polite and distant conversation.
She hung up the phone and smiled.”
"Your uncle is in Beijing too?" Chen Jie's smile faded a little, and his tone became a little harsher. It would be a lie to say that she wasn't angry. He didn't understand. They were already dating, but it was just a phone call. Besides, was it so difficult to tell her family that he was her boyfriend? He had to admit that her words had more or less hurt some of his male pride.
"Yes, my uncle works in Beijing. Let's eat."
…………
It was already normal for her uncle to call. It was also expected that he would call on New Year's Eve. However, that person had never called to ask about her.
She shouldn't have asked her elders to call her for New Year's greetings. This was something she should have done. However, she was still not used to it and did not want to call him. She just did not want to recall the past, the painful and terrifying past.
Uncle said,"Happy New Year, Jingjing." Uncle is waiting for you to eat. Are you still coming?”
"Is there anyone to eat with you?"
"Is he your boyfriend? When are you going to bring it back for Uncle and Auntie to see?”
"Oh, your aunt went out to buy something. Let your sister talk to you.”
Uncle's daughter was only three years old and was the only daughter. Uncle gave birth to her when he was thirty-one years old. Uncle was busy with his career until he was 30 years old. He only got married when he was 30 years old.
"Happy New Year, Second Sister." The childish voice was not clear, but it was full of energy.
"When can Second Sister come to Yiyi's house to play? Yiyi really misses Second Older Sister."
"Alright, I'll wait for Second Sister. Goodbye Second Older Sister."
While they were eating, she would touch the phone in her pocket from time to time. She was afraid that the fireworks would be too loud and she would miss the call.
However, that person really didn't fight. It would be a lie to say that he wasn't disappointed. With expectations, how could he not be disappointed?
