412 New Year's Eve Dinner

Chen Xu looked at Luo Xiyun unexpectedly, but she didn't expect that she would let him make a choice so directly. Just as he was about to speak, his cell phone rang, and he answered the phone, "Hey, yes, okay, let's come out immediately."

Then he hung up the phone and said, "The driver is here."

She lifted her handbag and said, "Let's go."

The two walked out of the hotel gate and saw a man in his thirties riding a small electric car parked on the side of the road, and went up to ask, it was the appointment driver.

After getting into the car, Chen Xu saw that she had been looking out the window and said, "I will think about that matter and I will reply to you after the Spring Festival."

"Yeah." She didn't turn her head, but just responded.

A red light happened to be seen in front of him. The driver glanced at the rearview mirror strangely, feeling that the atmosphere was a bit strange, but he was not familiar with people and didn't talk much.

After the red light, he concentrated on driving and did not dare to be distracted at all. If such an expensive car happens, it will be troublesome if something happens to an accident.

Luo Xiyun's house is relatively close, so he took her home first, and then Chen Xu back, and the car was placed on his side. To avoid any accidents, he parked the car in a nearby parking lot.

When he returned to renting a house, Chen Xu felt it was necessary to move. After thinking for a while, he decided to move after the Spring Festival and not that busy.

As for this Spring Festival holiday, there is no chance.

The company's online channels have just been opened. Even during the Spring Festival, major shopping platforms will cease business and express delivery companies will have a full holiday. But this is the first year. On the safe side, there must be enough people in the company to guard it, and formalism always needs to be done. This candidate is him, who just decided a few days ago.

Now it’s not a few days before New Year’s Eve.

He quickly put aside these trivial matters, took a shower in the bathroom, and after he came out, he started working.

To be honest, after entering this dream, his life can be said to be very hard, and he spent most of his time at work. Compared with the reality, he completely changed his lifestyle. However, he did not feel miserable.

He has experienced even harder days in dream games, and this is really nothing.

In fact, in reality, he has virtual dream equipment and has completed the initial accumulation. He doesn’t have to devote so much energy to his work at all. He just needs to follow the steps and have plenty of free time.

But it doesn't work here. He has a tight time and a low start, so he naturally has to spend most of his time preparing for the early stages of his career.

Not to mention, such days are a different experience for him. Without virtual dream equipment, he always feels a sense of crisis or powerlessness in his heart, and the powerlessness in his heart cannot control the development of the situation.

Every time he makes a decision, he has to think carefully to avoid affecting the plan. This feeling of nerve tightness has not been around for a long time. It is really a little stimulating.

…………

Time flies, and it is already New Year's Eve.

Chen Xu came to the company as usual, and today everyone was there. Although in fact, the online shopping malls stopped operating yesterday. Even if someone placed an order, the goods would not be shipped after the New Year. Most people actually had nothing to do. Today, they went to the company, but they just took a formality.

Liu Kun is quite humane. In the afternoon, he asked everyone to get off work early. Many people have to rush back to their hometown. It’s okay if they buy tickets, but they drive home by themselves. If they leave earlier, they can get less traffic jams.

Luo Xiyun left, and she wanted to go back to her grandmother's house for the New Year's Eve dinner. Liu Kun also left, most of the employees left, only Chen Xu, and a few locals, who stayed until after get off work.

Chen Xu was the last one to leave the company and locked the company's door. When he walked out of the building, he greeted the security guard and thought about where to go for supper.

On New Year's Eve, it's fine if you can't go home and have the New Year's Eve dinner with your parents, at least you have to eat better. Life still has to have a sense of ritual.

Soon, he had an idea.

He walked to the side of the road, swept a shared electric car, went straight to a nearby supermarket, and bought a lot of vegetables.

After returning to the rental house, he turned on the computer first, played the live TV broadcast, and deliberately amplified the sound. Listening to the sound on the TV, he went to the kitchen to start cooking.

I ran to the restaurant alone to have the New Year’s Eve dinner, and I thought it was very pitiful. I would rather make it at home.

He hasn't cooked for a while. In essence, he is a little lazy. Although he has learned cooking skills, he usually doesn't do it if he can. The same is true when he is with Xiyun and the others. He occasionally shows his skills.

There are no decent kitchenware in the rental house, just a rice cooker and an induction cooker, and a very small frying pan, so I can't make any hard dishes.

When I was cooking the last dish, my cell phone on the table suddenly rang, and it was a video call from my mother. He answered and asked, "Mom, have you eaten?"

In the video, my mother said, "I've eaten it, what about you, have you eaten?"

"It's being cooked." He pointed the camera at the already prepared dishes and the ones being fried in the pot. Then he put his phone in a position against the wall and stood it. He stir-fryed the dishes so that it wouldn't get messy.

My mother asked, “How do you do it yourself?”

"It's the New Year, I don't want to eat outside."

"If I had known that my dad and I would have gone to your place."

"Are you and my dad busy too? It's okay, you can go back on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month." He said at the right time, and he heard a knock on the door outside, which was a little strange. How could anyone knock on the door at this time?

"Someone knocks on the door, I'll open it." He said to his mother, turned off the fire, wiped his hands, and opened the door outside.

As soon as the door opened, he was a little surprised, "Why are you?"

Standing outside the door, it was Yang Jinxia. She was wearing a red dress and said, "I happened to pass by here, so I came up and take a look. Why, isn't you welcome?"

"Of course you welcome." Chen Xu smiled on her face. She always did this unexpectedly. Open the door and "Please come in."

Yang Jinxia walked in, looked at the environment of the house, and said, "It's quite clean. Haven't you eaten yet?"

"It's being made." Chen Xu pulled out the chair in front of the computer desk and said, "Sit down first, I still have the dishes inside."

She sat on the chair and looked at the low square table with a few dishes, a pot of white-cut chicken, a fried fish, and a meatball soup, and said, "It looks pretty good."

Chen Xu entered the kitchen, and the mother in the mobile phone video asked curiously, "Who does it sound like a woman."

"A friend of mine, mom, I'll call you when I finish eating."

Chen Xu said, hung up his phone. Then he served the dishes in the pot, took them out, and put them on the table. He asked, "Have you eaten?"

"not yet."
