Chapter 217 Takahashi Yui
Chapter 217 Takahashi Yui
Big Year.
Lao Huang’s Changle Apartment is warm and bustling.
"Oh my dear, be gentle, you almost pierced the dumpling skin!"
While pinching the dough, Old Huang yelled at Chen Qingyan who was clumsily making dumplings.
"Hey, Comrade Huang, this is not my first time making a bag!"
“Practice makes perfect, practice makes perfect!”
As Chen Qingyan spoke, he exerted even more force with his hands, pinching the dumplings filled with three fresh fillings into a strange shape.
Then she put her hands on her hips and said unconvincedly: "Hey, I just don't believe it!"
"My deft hands that can assemble all kinds of guns blindfolded can't handle a little dumpling like you!"
"Hahahaha..." Everyone burst into hearty laughter upon hearing this.
Gu Fangxun was busy boiling water in the small kitchen outside, while Fang Lansheng and Jiang Shiyuan cooperated with each other tacitly.
One was rolling out the dough while the other was wrapping the stuffing, and they did it very quickly. The plump and beautiful dumplings filled the lid.
Old Huang couldn't help but admire: "Our Lan Sheng and Xiao Yuan are really clever and skillful!"
"That's right!" Fang Lansheng raised his chin proudly, "Making dumplings is a technical job!"
Chen Qingyan worked hard for a long time, but every dumpling he made ended up with the filling leaking out.
So she poked at the delicate dumplings Jiang Shiyuan had made and said resignedly, "Ah, maybe I'm like my brother, I don't have any talent for cooking..."
Jiang Shiyuan smiled and comforted her, "Engineer Chen, you are destined to only use these two deft hands to appreciate the beauty of machinery!"
"Let us do this low-skilled job of making dumplings!"
Chen Qingyan touched her shoulder and smiled, "My Ayuan is still the best!"
Soon, the steaming dumplings were served on the table. Everyone sat together, eating the dumplings they had made themselves, feeling warm in their hearts.
Gu Fangxun raised her glass first, "Today, our Lantern Bearers group will have a reunion dinner together. I hope that everyone will be safe and sound in the new year!"
"Then excellently complete the tasks assigned by the organization and drive the Japanese devils back home!"
"Okay, let's drive out the Japanese pirates and return our land to us!" Everyone clinked their glasses together, full of passion.
This meal of dumplings tasted like home and also tasted like hope.
The fifth day of the new year.
The Du Mansion was decorated with lights and full of joy.
Jiang Shiyuan came to the Du Mansion to pay New Year's greetings with gifts.
"Yuanyuan is here, come in, come in!" Old Madam Du greeted her warmly.
"Happy New Year, grandma!" Jiang Shiyuan greeted sweetly.
Everyone in the Du family was particularly kind to Jiang Shiyuan, asking about her well-being and filling her pockets with all kinds of gifts and New Year's money.
Jiang Shiyuan accepted it with a smile, and secretly made up his mind to protect this hard-earned warmth and reunion.
***
The excitement of the Spring Festival gradually faded away amid the sound of firecrackers, and it was February 2th.
Jiang Shiyuan stood in front of the window, looking at the sky outside which was covered with dark clouds and looked like it was going to snow, feeling a little uneasy.
In a while, she will set out to pick up Takahashi Yui.
This was the first time she would see in person this man who had only appeared in a few international telegrams since she came here from the real world.
She took a deep breath and told herself: "Jiang Shiyuan, you can handle it easily and not let him see any flaws!"
Jiang Shiyuan adjusted her red cashmere scarf and dark blue cashmere coat in front of the dressing mirror, then picked up her pearl handbag and went out.
In the afternoon, the Shilipu Wharf was bustling with people coming and going.
Jiang Shiyuan saw at a glance Takahashi Yui walking down from the "Sakurayama Maru" with her long legs.
He was wearing a black woolen coat and gold-rimmed glasses.
On his angular face, with sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and thin lips, he exudes a cold and aloof temperament that keeps strangers away.
He was like a sharp sword ready to be unsheathed, his edge hidden but his chill evident.
Jiang Shiyuan's heartbeat suddenly quickened involuntarily.
I don’t know what Takahashi Yui has experienced during this period of time, but I always feel that he is a little different from what I remember.
Jiang Shiyuan held a bunch of bright sunflowers in his arms, pretended to be looking forward to it with joy, and took the initiative to greet him.
She tried to make her smile look more natural.
But in my heart I was complaining like crazy, what kind of the hell is this plot!
Takahashi Yui originally had an indifferent expression, as if he was keeping people at a distance.
But when he noticed the girl in the crowd, wearing a red scarf and holding sunflowers, running towards him, his almond-shaped eyes behind his glasses couldn't help but reveal a hint of tenderness.
The corners of her tightly pursed lips also slightly lifted up, outlining a beautiful arc.
"Youyi!" Jiang Shiyuan raised her voice, trying to sound as cute and excited as a girl.
"Ayako!" Takahashi Yui also called out loudly, with a barely perceptible tremor in her tone.
Jiang Shiyuan ran up to him, handed him the sunflower in his hand, and said with a smile: "Youyi, welcome to Shanghai!"
She tried hard to make herself look like a girl in love at this moment.
However, Takahashi Yui did not take the bouquet immediately, but put down the suitcase in her hand first.
The love in his eyes was surging, almost drowning Jiang Shiyuan.
The next second, he hugged Jiang Shiyuan tightly in his arms.
Takahashi Yui stroked her hair, leaned over to her ear, and whispered softly, "Ayako, I miss you so much, I'm going crazy..."
The warm breath sprayed on Jiang Shiyuan's ears, giving her goose bumps.
Then, he placed a kiss on Jiang Shiyuan's forehead very restrainedly and gently.
When his cold lips touched his forehead, Jiang Shiyuan couldn't help but tremble all over.
At this point, her inner groundhog screamed, “Ahhhhhhh, I’m dirty, I’m not clean anymore!”
Jiang Shiyuan gently pushed Takahashi Yui away and said angrily, "Oh, there are so many people watching, I feel embarrassed..."
She tried her best to use a shy tone to hide her inner resistance.
Takahashi Yui reluctantly let her go, took the sunflower, and smiled lovingly, "Ayako, thank you for the sunflower, I like it very much."
He stared at Jiang Shiyuan, his eyes so gentle that they seemed to drip water.
Jiang Shiyuan tried hard to maintain her smile, but she was roaring inside. She really couldn't act any more!
This sudden gentle attack made her a little overwhelmed.
She must end this "sweet" reunion as soon as possible and go back to take a good bath!
Jiang Shiyuan took a deep breath and tried to make himself look more natural and relaxed.
"Yuyi, where are we going next?"
Takahashi Yui picked up the suitcase and said in a very charming voice: "Let's go to the Military Police Headquarters in the Japanese Concession first. Senior Sister Yunzi arrived two days ago."
