On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, the New Year’s visit team officially set out. Since the town where Yan Qingchi was filming was not too far from City X and could be reached in one day by car, Jiang Mochen decisively gave up the route of plane, bus and then bus, and decided to drive himself. Jiang Xingchen, Father Jiang, Mother Jiang, and Yan Yan were in one car, and Jiang Mochen, Qi Qi, Bo Feng, and Bo Yan were in one car.
It was the first time for Qi Qi and Bo Yan to travel far away with their friends. So they were very excited along the way and chattered non-stop in the back seat, talking about everything from the homework assigned by the teacher to the animations they had watched recently, and finally they played games late into the night.
Jiang Mochen listened to the two of them playing “Two Little Bees, Flying to the Flowers” in the back, looked up at Bo Yan, and asked Bo Feng, “I heard that you broke up with your girlfriend?”
Bo Feng was helpless, “She wanted to be Mrs. Bo so much, that she thought I treated her well and thought she could marry me. Everyone believed what she said and thought I was really going to marry her. I hate this kind of woman who loves to fantasize and talk too much, so we broke up.”
“I thought you were really planning to get married?”
“I will get married for sure. I can’t be single all my life. I’m just not sure who I will get married with and when.”
Jiang Mochen listened to the sound of Qi Qi and Bo Yan playing games, and wanted to ask Bo Feng whether he would remarry Fu Minzhi, so that Bo Yan could have a complete family. But he was worried about the children behind him, and was afraid that they would hear him, so he didn’t really ask.
Qi Qi and Bo Yan played for a while and felt thirsty, so Qi Qi found a bottle of yogurt from his small backpack. He was very generous and took one bottle for himself and handed one to Bo Yan. Then he tilted his head to look at Jiang Mochen in the driver’s seat and asked him softly, “Dad, are you thirsty? Do you want to drink yogurt?”
Jiang Mochen replied gently, “I’m not thirsty, Qi Qi, you can drink it yourself.”
“Then do you want to eat something?” Qi Qi looked at his small backpack, “Qi Qi has a lot of food here, biscuits, potato chips, chocolate, jelly and candy, Dad, do you want to eat?”
As he said that, he took out a box of biscuits and handed it forward.
Jiang Mochen had no choice but to answer him again, “I’m driving and can’t eat yet. Qi Qi, you eat first and I’ll eat later.”
“Oh, then I’ll keep it for you.” Qi Qi said, then put the biscuits back into his bag and took out two bags of potato chips. Then he handed one bag to Bo Yan and said happily, “Let’s eat this.”
As a result, as soon as he tore open his own bag, he saw Bo Feng staring at him. Qi Qi blinked unconsciously and looked at Bo Feng. He then thought for a while, looked down at his bag of potato chips, handed it to him and asked, “Uncle, do you want to eat potato chips? This bag is for uncle.”
Bo Feng looked at the other person’s son, then turned to look at his own son, and saw Bo Yan covering the potato chips that Qi Qi had just handed to him, and saying like an adult, “What are you looking at? You don’t have them. I won’t let you eat them even if you look at them.”
Bo Feng: …What a useless son! I don’t want it anymore, I want to change my son!
He smiled at Qi Qi and said he didn’t want to eat it, then turned back to chat with Jiang Mochen, “Old Jiang, would you consider sharing your experience in raising a son? They are both little boys, but why is yours a donut while ours is a little stone? The difference is quite big.”
Bo Yan heard it and snorted in the back seat to express his dissatisfaction.
Jiang Mochen smiled, “The idea is very simple and there is only one,” he glanced at Bo Feng, “Find a good wife, that’s it.”
Bo Feng: “??? Are you showing off?”
“I’m telling the truth.” Jiang Mochen said honestly.
It was already five o’clock in the afternoon when they arrived at the city, the superior administrative unit where the filming of “Jianghu in the Mist” was located. Jiang Mochen had already asked his assistant to contact the best local hotel in advance and book it. He followed the navigation to find the hotel, parked the car, and checked in directly.
The children were a little tired and had fallen asleep in the car a long time ago. Jiang Mochen and Jiang Xingchen discussed staying here for the next two days and spending New Year’s Eve in this hotel. Jiang Xingchen agreed and asked him, “Are you going to Qingchi tonight?”
“Of course I’m going, but Qi Qi is asleep, so I won’t take him. I’ll be back after picking up Qingchi.”
“Okay.”
Jiang Mochen was going, so Bo Feng also went with him. Bo Yan was still sleeping, so he left a note for Bo Yan and asked Jiang Xingchen to help take care of Bo Yan before leaving.
Because the next day was New Year’s Eve, Fu Minzhi ended the filming early so that everyone could chat with their families on the phone the day before New Year’s Eve.
Yan Qingchi returned to the hotel and called Jiang Mochen, but Jiang Mochen didn’t answer. Yan Qingchi thought he might be busy and didn’t think much about it. After hanging up, he called his home.
When Mother Yan heard that he had to stay in the crew during the Chinese New Year, she felt sorry for him, “Then you will have to spend the New Year alone this year?”
“Not alone, there are so many people in the crew.”
“How can the people in the crew be compared with the family,” Mother Yan was very honest, “the feeling is definitely different.”
“That can’t be helped, actors are like that.”
“Alas,” Mother Yan sighed, “I usually see you all looking so glamorous on TV, but I didn’t expect that it’s not as good as I thought. It’s still quite hard.”
Yan Qingchi was very open-minded, “It’s not easy in all walks of life. Actors generally earn a lot and live a glamorous life, which is pretty good.”
Hearing this, Mother Yan had to say, “Then take care of yourself. You have to eat well even if you are alone. The New Year’s Eve dinner of your crew should be okay.”
“Okay, Mom, don’t worry. By the way, have you bought all the New Year’s goods at home? Have you put up the couplets?”
“It’s all done. I understand these things better than you do. Just take care of yourself. Everything is fine at home. Mochen brought Qi Qi and Yan Yan home a few days ago. Let me say, Yan Yan really looks more and more like you. You can tell at a glance that he is your biological child.”
Yan Qingchi smiled, “I worked so hard to carry him for so long, he must look like me.”
Mother Yan thought his words were a bit childish and couldn’t help laughing, “Xiao Chi, you now have a happy family and a successful career, so your father and I are relieved.”
“Were you worried before?”
“I was definitely worried when you just got married. What was the situation in our family then? What was the situation in the Jiang family? And it was two men getting married. Our family had never encountered such a situation before, so we couldn’t help you with any advice. Besides, Mochen is a celebrity. When you first got the marriage certificate, your father and I were prepared for divorce if you two couldn’t get along. Unexpectedly, you two are living like a happy little family.” Mother Yan was very pleased. “It’s really not easy.”
Yan Qingchi smiled when he heard what his mother said, with a gentle look on his face.
They chatted for a while, then Yan Qingchi got a call. He said something to Mother Yan, hung up the phone and answered the outside line, “Hello.”
“Mr. Yan? You have a courier that needs to be signed for.”
“Courier?” Yan Qingchi was a little confused, “I haven’t bought anything recently.”
“The phone number written on the list is yours, and your last name is Yan, right? This last name is not common, so normally people wouldn’t send it to the wrong person. Please come out and sign for it. I’ll be at the back door of the hotel.”
“Okay.”
Yan Qingchi hung up the phone, put on his coat, and went out. He thought about it, could it be that Jiang Mochen sent him a courier? Otherwise, what other courier could it be at this time? It’s almost the New Year though, and the couriers are still working, which is really not easy.
Yan Qingchi opened the back door and walked out.
Because it was a small town, there were not many people in town. Moreover these people only knew old-time stars who had already achieved success, so they were not crazy about the new generation. Thus, even if they knew the address of their hotel, they would not come over to ask for autographs, let alone wait in front of the hotel.
Not long after Yan Qingchi walked out, he saw a tall and thin man holding a box. He walked over and the man asked him, “Are you Mr. Yan? What’s the last digit of your phone number?”
Yan Qingchi nodded, “Yes.”
“It’s your express delivery.” He handed the box to Yan Qingchi, turned around and left.
Yan Qingchi looked at the box. It was dark outside and under the dim light he could only see the word “Jiang” written in the sender column. It turned out to be a message from Jiang Mochen, but he didn’t know what it was.
Yan Qingchi walked back with the express delivery.
He got on the elevator, walked to his door, swiped his card, and as soon as he walked in, he saw someone sitting on the sofa in the room.
Jiang Mochen looked at him and smiled, “Surprise.”
Yan Qingchi was a little surprised. He looked at Jiang Mochen and could hardly believe his eyes.
Jiang Mochen was unconsciously happy to see him showing a rare surprised expression, “Surprised?”
Yan Qingchi finally reacted to his sudden surprise. The corners of his mouth rose unconsciously. Then he nodded with a smile and slowly closed the door, “Why are you here?”
Jiang Mochen heard the joy in his tone and said gently, “I came to spend the New Year with you.” He looked at Yan Qingchi, “How can I bear to let you spend the New Year alone here.”
Yan Qingchi was a little moved. He walked over with the box in his arms, sat down beside him, and put the box on the coffee table. He then looked at Jiang Mochen with some joy of reunion after a long separation, his eyes full of affection.
Jiang Mochen could no longer suppress his hidden longing when he was looked at like this. He reached out and hugged Yan Qingchi, holding him in his arms, feeling the solidity of his lover in his arms, and couldn’t help but kiss him.
“I missed you,” he said.
Yan Qingchi felt his heart soften at that moment. He hugged Jiang Mochen back and whispered, “I miss you, too.”
He looked at Jiang Mochen and kissed his lips, “Very much.”
Jiang Mochen didn’t say anything and kissed him directly.
Yan Qingchi smiled unconsciously and kissed him cooperatively.
After the kiss, Yan Qingchi looked at the box in front of him and finally had the mind to ask him, “You’re here, why are you still sending me a package?”
He thought for a moment, squinted at Jiang Mochen, “Lure the tiger away from the mountain? Make a feint to the east and attack in the west?”
Jiang Mochen smiled, “Otherwise, how can I give you a surprise?”
“How did you get in?” Yan Qingchi was very curious.
