I Married the Male Lead of a CP-free Novel Chapter 72 Part 1

Chapter 72 — Unconsciousness

After returning to Wangjiang Manor, Chi Zhengzheng and Wen Yu started to prepare the ingredients.

Wen Yu washed the vegetables, Wen Yu cut the vegetables, and Wen Yu loaded the plates.

Chi Zhengzheng… accompanied Wen Yu to wash, chop and plate the food.

“Do you really not need my help?” She blinked and asked from the side.

Wen Yu turned around, bit off the potato chips she was holding in her hand, and then said: “Eat fewer snacks, it’s time to eat the New Year’s Eve dinner.”

“Oh, oh, okay.” Chi Zhengzheng was also obedient and put the potato chips that she hadn’t eaten back on the coffee table.

Just after taking out the phone, inside the kitchen, Wen Yu shouted: “Chi Zhengzheng.”

“Hey! What’s the matter, do you need my help?” Her eyes lit up.

Wen Yu handed her the plate in her hand: “Then take it out, put it on the table.”

Actually, when he called her, he just wanted her to come in and keep him company.

– He always wanted her within his sight.

“Okay!” She walked out briskly carrying plates one by one.

There were only a few of each ingredient, after all, there were only two people and a dog, so there wasn’t much to eat.

On the dining table, there was a four-compartment pot, two compartments of red soup, hot and slightly spicy, one compartment of clear soup, and one compartment of plain water. The plain water was obviously prepared for Liuzhu.

The family should be in order for the New Year’s Eve dinner.

Chi Zhengzheng sat down at the table, her eyes shining brightly, and shouted towards the kitchen; “Wen Yu! Is it ready yet?”

“Here it is.” As Wen Yu said this, he came out carrying the dumplings.

Chi Zhengzheng took a look at it and suddenly, her expression became a bit sensitive.

The dumplings she had made were uglier than the ones Wen Yu had made, and now that they were steamed, the contrast was even more obvious. The skin was obviously the same and the filling was the same, how could the finished product look like two different things?

As usual, Wen Yu sat on Chi Zhengzheng’s, Liuzhu was resting on the ground between them.

“Can I have some wine?” She blinked, it seemed as if her eyes could hold countless stars.

“One glass.” Wen Yu chuckled.

“Okay!” Chi Zhengzheng hurriedly took out the red wine from the wine cabinet from under the table and handed it to Wen Yu with a smile on her face.

Wen Yu opened it and poured two glasses of wine.

He was about to pick up the glasses.

Chi Zhengzheng interrupted him: “Wait, let’s take a picture first!”

She took out her cell phone, and “click click click” she took a few pictures, and then leaned her head over to take a few pictures with Wen Yu, she then posted them to her friends’ circle, and only then did she put the phone down. (t/n: it’s a feature in WeChat where you can share things just like social media with friends.)

Wen Yu was puzzled at first, then looked at her with a doting expression, he took out his phone and gave her a heart.

After thinking about it, he took a photo of the two of them together again.

“Wen Yu, Happy New Year!” Chi Zhengzheng lifted her glass of wine.

Wen Yu also lifted his glass, and the smile at the corner of his mouth never fell: “Happy New Year, Chi Zhengzheng.”

“I wish A Yu a Happy New Year, may all your hopes be fulfilled and I hope you have abundance year after year!” (t/n: 万事如意 may all your hopes be fulfilled or simply all the best，年年有余 have abundance year after year (it has Yu’s name))

Wen Yu smiled and following her example, he also said: “I wish Zhengzheng a Happy New Year, for you to have happiness every day, safety and joy.”

If you thought about it, this was Wen Yu’s first New Year’s Eve. He couldn’t remember what it was like on New Year’s Eve in the Wen family, but it made no difference to him anyway.

Even if he was given a New Year’s red packet, he would also be criticized for a while.

(t/n: 红包 red packet or lucky money, it’s usually given to children by adults and family in the New Year)

The elders of the Wen family treated him as if he didn’t exist, Wen Jingsen also treated him as if he didn’t exist, Xu Wei and Wen Yiran, one set him up when she had the chance, and one was proud of what he had in front of him.

Therefore, Wen Yu never felt that the New Year was any different.

But this year he felt it. This year, Wen Yu was happy and happier than he had ever been, and he also experienced the difference between this day and the other days of the year.

After they clinked their glasses, they began to eat.

Wen Yu did what he said he would do, he basically ate the dumplings wrapped by Chi Zhengzheng, the smile at the corner of his mouth was obvious, and his deep eyes, which were always dark all year round, were simply filled with joy.

The Spring Festival Gala had begun, the television was broadcasting it, and it was buzzing with excitement.

Liuzhu was on the floor eating boiled vegetables in plain water, he was very happy. Chi Zhengzheng always wanted to reach out with her chopsticks toward the spicy one but was also always cut off by Wen Yu.

“Eat this.” Wen Yu gave her vegetables, all of which were in clear soup.

Chi Zhengzheng’s face puffed up: “Wen Yu!!”

He paused slightly, sighed, and gave her the slightly spicy pot to dip in.

Chi Zhengzheng was still not satisfied and mumbled: “To eat hot pot is to eat spicily. Really, you shouldn’t use a four-compartment pot, with a spicy compartment is enough! Hot pot without spice has no soul!!”

“Be obedient, if it’s too spicy it will hurt your stomach.” Wen Yu had a doting expression and continued to give her all kinds of dishes.

Chi Zhengzheng humped and sneakily threw ingredients into the spicy pot.

She took out the cooked food from the clear soup and then give Wen Yu: “You also eat, don’t just focus on me ah.”

“Hmm.” The corners of Wen Yu’s mouth curved even higher.

The television program was coming to a comical sketch, Chi Zhengzheng looked up and ate mindlessly, and didn’t notice that – all she was eating was the light taste food that Wen Yu just put into the bowl for her.

Wen Yu couldn’t help but laugh, and the smile in his eyes became even stronger.

After a while, he said: “Chi Zhengzheng, I’m very happy.”

He had never been this happy before.

Chi Zhengzheng was taken aback for a moment, then she looked at him, and then said with a serious expression: “Every year from now on will be this happy!”

“Will you always be there?”

“Of course!”

Chi Zhengzheng didn’t hesitate.

Wen Yu was happy. He had always been calm, but now he was like a child getting his favorite toy, his face was full of joy, and he couldn’t hide it.

Seeing that he was happy, Chi Zhengzheng was also happy.

“Yuyu, will you still treat me so well in the future?”

“I will, I will treat you even better.” Wen Yu looked at her.

Chi Zhengzheng’s cheeks were slightly red, but she showed a silly and happy smile, only feeling joyful and extremely sweet in her heart.

So was Wen Yu.

Before he met Chi Zhengzheng, he had never been happy, but after he met Chi Zhengzheng, it was as if there was only happiness left.

The existence of this person was the best gift God had given him, everything he had gone through in the previous 20 years, wasn’t worth mentioning.

This was his first time celebrating the New Year seriously, and it was also the first time he had celebrated the New Year so happily.

For the rest of his life, there will be many, many more New Years.

– The future that belonged to him and Chi Zhengzheng.

“Hurry up and eat this, you like to eat this.”

“You love to eat this.”

“You’re too focused on me, I’m almost full!”

“Then, I’ll eat it later.”

“Okay, you can eat more tonight, I have to wait for the New Year, I haven’t stayed up for a long time.”

“Hmm, you can go to bed early if you want to.”

“No, it’s New Year’s Eve. By the way, have you ever waited for the New Year, Wen Yu?”

“No.”

“Hehehe, then this is your first time, it’s worth remembering ah!”

After the meal, the two of them sat on the sofa to watch the New Year.

Originally, Chi Zhengzheng thought she would be very excited, but in reality, she felt a little weak and fell asleep in Wen Yu’s arms amidst the noisy TV.

Wen Yu looked down at Chi Zhengzheng, who was asleep with her eyes closed, and smiled again, his heart full.

He lowered his head and dropped a kiss.

He also didn’t wake her up, when it was almost twelve o’clock, he gently nudged her.

Chi Zhengzheng woke up suddenly, her eyes misty: “What time is it?”

She actually felt extremely tired, not as if she had just woken up, but as if she hadn’t slept for a long time, and even for a while, she didn’t remember what day of the year it was.

It took her a moment to remember that it was New Year’s Eve and she and Wen Yu were waiting for the New Year.

Wen Yu: “Eleven fifty.”

“Ah, it’s almost twelve o’clock! Thank God, you woke me!” Chi Zhengzheng hurriedly stood up.

Her brain still ached a bit, and she patted her cheeks.

“Are you still sleepy? Why don’t you go to bed and sleep.” Wen Yu paid attention to her.

Chi Zhengzheng shook her head: “No, it’s New Year’s Eve!”

Outside, the sound of fireworks could be heard.

With the sound of fireworks outside, Chi Zhengzheng cheered up and reached out to take Wen Yu’s hand: “Let’s go, let’s go watch the fireworks!”

Wen Yu stood up obediently, but didn’t follow her out, but went to get her jacket: “Wait, it’s cold outside.”

She was wrapped into a ball by him again, and only then did he go out with her.

Probably because she had just woken up and had no energy, Chi Zhengzheng was especially honestly wrapped into a ball by him, and then went up to the terrace on the second floor with him holding hands.

Outside, the sky was full of fireworks.

“Wow!! I can’t believe they’re setting off fireworks!!” Her eyes were very bright as she looked up at the sky.

The fireworks were being set off inside the Wangjiang Manor, the sky was full of them, standing on the second-floor terrace, just in front of their eyes, it was beautiful.

Wen Yu didn’t look at the fireworks, he kept looking at her.

“Was it done by the property? It’s really nice.” The fireworks started at 11:50, and the sky was filled with them, and they never stopped.

Looking at them, she realized something was wrong.
