Chapter 156
"Honey, didn't we say we were going to the food court?" Li Mengyao pouted, looking at Lin Xuan with a face full of grievance.
"I promised you to go out for dinner, but I didn't say it was the food court." Lin Xuan couldn't help laughing and gently pinched her nose.
Lin Xuan didn't take Li Mengyao to the food court, but took her directly to his restaurant, so that the hygiene would definitely be guaranteed.
"Huh!" Li Mengyao pouted, the expression on her face collapsed instantly, and even her little hands began to struggle, not wanting to be held by Lin Xuan.
"Wife, listen to me, okay? Now the baby is about to come out, it's a critical period, and I'm really worried about the food court outside." Lin Xuan explained patiently, his tone full of tenderness and love.
"Okay..." Li Mengyao said softly, and she stopped being petty.
"Let's go in quickly." Lin Xuan smiled.
Tomorrow is New Year's Day, and now both office workers and students have a holiday.
Jinwan Plaza was crowded and bustling, with people coming and going everywhere.
Xuanmeng Restaurant is now the most popular restaurant in Jinwan Plaza, and there is naturally a long queue at the door.
At this time, there was a long queue at the door of Xuanmeng Restaurant.
Lin Xuan held Li Mengyao's hand tightly and walked into Xuanmeng Restaurant together.
At this time, Xiaoli, the front desk, recognized Lin Xuan at a glance.
She smiled warmly and said, "Welcome, boss!"
Lin Xuan also smiled and responded, "Xiaoli, are there any private rooms?"
Xiaoli nodded and replied quickly, "Yes, Manager Zhou specifically told us to reserve a VIP room for the boss and the boss's wife."
After that, she turned to another waiter and shouted, "Xiaoling, take the boss and the boss's wife to the VIP room."
Then, a waiter led Lin Xuan and Li Mengyao to the VIP room.
"Wife, what do you want to eat?" Lin Xuan handed the menu to Li Mengyao.
Li Mengyao looked at the menu carefully, pointed to one of the dishes and said, "This casserole fish head looks delicious, and let's have another serving of scallion-fried crucian carp."
Lin Xuan smiled and nodded, and then he ordered some staple food and snacks.
After a while, various delicious dishes were served one after another, and the aroma was fragrant.
Lin Xuan and Li Mengyao began to enjoy this delicious meal happily.
Just as they were eating with relish, they suddenly heard a light knock on the door outside the private room.
Then, Zhou Quan's voice came from outside: "Brother Xuan, can I come in?"
Lin Xuan put down the chopsticks in his hand and replied with a smile: "Come in."
Zhou Quan pushed open the door and walked in with a smile.
He walked straight to Lin Xuan and sat down with a happy expression on his face.
"Brother Xuan, why did you suddenly come to inspect the restaurant today?" Zhou Quan said with a smile.
Lin Xuan glanced around and showed a satisfied look: "Not bad, Quan'er, I didn't expect that Xuanmeng Restaurant was really well built by you."
Hearing Lin Xuan's praise, Zhou Quan's smile became brighter: "Brother Xuan, I was just about to discuss with you, should we open a branch? Now many customers complain about no seats every day, the restaurant is really too popular."
Lin Xuan thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, when I have time, we will discuss the matter of opening a branch."
During this period, he just wanted to accompany Li Mengyao well and wait until the babies are born.
At this time, Li Mengyao picked up another piece of fish meat and put it into her mouth. After tasting it carefully, she praised it and said, "Well, this casserole fish head is really delicious!"
Zhou Quan smiled proudly: "Of course, sister-in-law, this is a new product developed by my cousin recently.
Using wild big silver carp head, top-quality shark fin, and black truffle, all of them are top-notch ingredients, how can they not be delicious?"
Then Zhou Quan began to praise it.
Of course, he also said at the end that it would be more delicious if it was made by Brother Xuan.
This flattery...
After a full dinner, Lin Xuan and Li Mengyao returned home and lay on the sofa to watch the New Year's Eve party.
This New Year's Eve, because Huang Shifang and Huang Shizhen had to go back to the countryside to accompany their grandmother; because Lin Sisi was in a tight schedule in the third year of high school, Zhang Shulan and Lin Zhengguo spent it in Yunhai City.
And Li Mengyao was already nine months pregnant, and it was inconvenient for her to move, so it was not suitable for her to travel far.
So Lin Xuan and Li Mengyao stayed in Jinghai City to celebrate New Year's Day.
At this moment, Li Mengyao was leaning leisurely on the sofa, watching TV with relish and eating snacks happily.
She fed Lin Xuan a piece from time to time, and then ate another piece herself, the scene was very warm.
However, Lin Xuan kept fiddling with the mobile phone in his hand, as if directing something important...
"Husband, why are you always looking at your phone?? "Li Mengyao curiously leaned over to find out.
"Nothing." Lin Xuan quickly turned off the phone screen and showed a mysterious smile.
"You must be hiding something from me!" Li Mengyao pouted, her beautiful big eyes blinking, full of doubts.
"You will know at 12 o'clock." Lin Xuan gently pinched her cute face and comforted her with a smile.
"Hmph, forget it!" Li Mengyao turned her head away angrily.
...
As the hour and minute hands slowly turned, the time finally came to 23:50 in the evening, and there were only ten minutes left before the arrival of the new year.
"Wife, let's go to the balcony to see the night view of the river." Lin Xuan raised the corner of his mouth and showed a gentle smile.
"Ah? Don't you want to watch the party? I still want to listen to the countdown. "Li Mengyao said.
After all, this was her first time to accompany Lin Xuan to celebrate the New Year, and her heart was full of anticipation and excitement.
"It's okay, turn up the TV volume a little, even on the balcony you can hear the countdown."
Lin Xuan comforted her, and gently took her hand and walked to the spacious balcony together.
The two sat side by side on a comfortable lazy chair, Li Mengyao snuggled tightly in Lin Xuan's arms, her eyes cast on the sparkling river in the distance.
The night sky was twinkling with stars.
"Husband, what did you do during the New Year's Eve before?" Li Mengyao raised her head slightly.
"Me? Basically playing games with roommates." Lin Xuan smiled.
"What about you, my wife?" Lin Xuan asked immediately.
"Most of the time I used to be alone at home waiting for my mother to get home from get off work." Li Mengyao replied softly.
Because during holidays, supermarkets usually need employees to work overtime.
"In the future, your husband will accompany you to celebrate the New Year every year. "Lin Xuan caressed Li Mengyao's cheek with heartache and kissed her affectionately.
"No, there is a baby." Li Mengyao gently stroked her belly with a happy smile on her face.
The baby will be born in January next year.
Just then, the countdown sound came from the TV: "Let us welcome the new year, 10, 9, 8, 7..."
Lin Xuan looked at Li Mengyao gently and said, "Wife, look at the river."
When the New Year's bell rang, a dazzling beam of light suddenly shot straight into the sky on the river in front of Jinwan Mansion. With a loud bang, fireworks bloomed in the night sky with brilliant brilliance, red like fire, pink like clouds, purple like dreams, reflecting the entire river surface like a dream.
At the same time, it also illuminated the happy faces of Lin Xuan and Li Mengyao.
