On the first day of the New Year, the outside world was a beautiful white spectacle.
It had snowed all night, covering the entire city in a blanket of white.
Mu Chen woke up a bit late, and the person on the foldable bed next to him was already gone.
After washing up and going downstairs, he saw Jiang Jingheng sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper, while his sister was beside him putting fresh flower branches into a vase.
A very ordinary ho scene, yet it gave a feeling of ti gracefully flowing by.
Mu Yan looked up and saw Mu Chen coming down, smiled and said, "Chenchen, Happy New Year."
She spoke while picking up a red envelope from the table and handing it to him.
Mu Chen walked over, took the red envelope, and said, "I didn’t expect to still get New Year’s money, thank you, sister. Happy New Year, sister."
He looked at Jiang Jingheng, hesitated for a mont, and called out, "Brother-in-law, Happy New Year."
Mu Yan looked at Mu Chen, a flash of joy appearing in her eyes. He finally accepted Jiang Jingheng!
Jiang Jingheng raised his eyes to look at Mu Chen, took out a red envelope and handed it to him, his expression calm, "Happy New Year."
Mu Chen accepted it and said, "Thank you, brother-in-law."
Actually, calling him brother-in-law wasn’t that hard. Since yesterday, when this man ca back to spend New Year with his sister, he had accepted him in his heart.
He wasn’t blind; he could see that his feelings for his sister were sincere.
Although he had so flaws, like being too rich, too handso, and having a complicated family situation, nobody is perfect!
As long as he was sincere to his sister, that was enough!
"Young master, breakfast is ready," Yu Ma said as she ca over.
Mu Yan arranged the vase and stood up, saying, "Alright, let’s have breakfast."
After breakfast, Mu Chen fussed about wanting to play in the snow outside.
Mu Yan wasn’t happy about it; it was too cold, and she was afraid he might catch a cold.
After all, his body couldn’t handle such exertion right now.
But Jiang Jingheng said, "I have so winter wear here, let Mu Chen put it on."
Mu Chen imdiately jumped at the opportunity, "Sister, did you hear? Brother-in-law has winter wear, so I won’t catch a cold."
Seeing his excited expression, Mu Yan couldn’t bring herself to refuse.
Moreover, she was happy to see the two of them getting along well.
Mu Yan was too weak physically, so having a snowball fight was out of the question, and in the end, everyone just made snown.
Mu Chen was very enthusiastic, and the three of them busied themselves, with noise and laughter, and before long, three snown were built.
The one in the middle with a red scarf represented Mu Yan, and the two tall and strong ones on either side were Jiang Jingheng and Mu Chen.
Mu Chen was quite satisfied with the result. Previously, he was the only one taking care of his sister, but now with an additional person, even if he wasn’t around in the future, his sister wouldn’t be without care.
Not long after, he wasn’t feeling well, and Mu Yan and Jiang Jingheng took him back to his room.
That night, Mu Chen had a slight fever, which scared Mu Yan quite a bit.
Fortunately, after seeing a doctor, his condition gradually improved.
After that, Mu Yan didn’t dare let him ss around again, keeping him indoors all day.
Once the weather cleared up, she finally let him go outside to bask in the sun.
This year, they spent their days plainly but happily.
Jiang Jingheng stayed ho with Mu Yan the whole ti, not returning to the Jiang Family even once.
Mu Yan vaguely sensed sothing had happened, and, after hesitating for a mont, asked him, "Is it okay for you not to go ho during the holidays?"
Jiang Jingheng chuckled lightly, "What, are you tired of spending so much ti at ho with you?"
"Of course not," she said, hoping he’d stay with her every day.
Seeing he didn’t want to talk about it, Mu Yan didn’t ask further.
At the Jiang Family Mansion, Zhao Xiyue ca with her family to send New Year greetings but didn’t see Jiang Jingheng.
She had sent him a New Year’s greeting ssage early on, but he hadn’t replied.
Although Yin Manqing still treated her with the sa enthusiasm as before, she felt uneasy inside.
