Zhuang Nainai reached out and took the red packet. Looking down, she did not dare to face Ding Mengya as she said slowly, “Thank you.”

Honestly, the Chinese New Year was just an occasion to feast. On the second day of the Chinese New Year, it was the start of visiting.
Si Zhengting had left the house early in the morning. Although the Imperial Group was impressive, Si Zhengting was still young and he was part of the younger generation. Hence, he couldn’t possibly let the older ones visit him.
Normally, he would be back only at night. However, he came back when it was only 11:30 am today.
Ding Mengya immediately teased him, “You’ve really changed after having a wife. You are even coming back for lunch now?”
Si Zhengting smiled.
In the afternoon, Su Yanbin and a crowd of people all gathered at the Si residence.
Zuo Yiyi still looked very arrogant. She stared at Zhuang Nainai’s bump and nitpicked everything about her.
As more people gathered, the atmosphere became more lively. At night, everyone was trying to force Si Zhengting to drink alcohol, but Si Zhengting refused to drink and his excuse made everyone speechless. “What if I accidentally touch Nainai at night while I’m drunk?”
After hearing this, everyone turned to look at the shocking sight of Zhuang Nainai’s bump and remained silent afterward.
When everyone became drunk, each of them began losing control.
Zuo Yiyi also had two glasses of wine, so her cheeks were slightly flushed. She had been silent and keeping a straight face for the entire night, but she suddenly stood up, pointed at Zhuang Nainai, and said, “Zhuang Nainai! I extremely hate you! I hate you very much!”
Looking at her, Zhuang Nainai did not say anything. Zuo Yiyi’s eyes suddenly welled up. She bit her lips and looked at her. “I like Brother Ting, but you stole him away! Zhuang Nainai, I hate you. I don’t like you…”
Before Zuo Yiyi could even finish speaking, Su Yanbin grabbed her arm immediately. “What are you saying? Why do you even hate her?”
Angered, Zuo Yiyi pushed Su Yanbin away. “I just want to say this. Can’t I say this? I’m not like you! You are just a coward!”
Su Yanbin’s face was pale. Those words seemed to have provoked something that he had been hiding deep in his heart as he stood up immediately. “How am I a coward?”
Zuo Yiyi looked at him and smiled. “You are a coward! You don’t even dare to confess to the girl that you have liked for years!”
As soon as Su Yanbin heard this, he said, “You think I don’t dare to do so?”
“If you dare, confess now!”
Su Yanbin’s eyes immediately widened. Then, his eyes darted around the room before he fixed his gaze on Zhuang Nainai.
Seeing him like this, Zhuang Nainai stepped backward and stood beside Si Zhengting.
Su Yanbin approached them. As he was walking, he stumbled and fell onto the ground. Thereafter, he looked up again and said, “Boss Ting! I like you! I have liked you for so many years! How can you abandon me?!”
Everyone: “…!!!”
After chasing this bunch of people upstairs and sending them into guest rooms, he returned to the master bedroom, only to see Zhuang Nainai still awake. Hence, he approached her. “Why aren’t you sleeping?”
Zhuang Nainai looked at him and giggled. “I’m just thinking about how mesmerizing my husband is. It’s not only women who like you, but even men like you too!”
Si Zhengting: “…!!”
Si Zhengting lay down on the bed and tapped on her shoulders, inviting her to snuggle in his embrace. He said nonchalantly, “They won’t be invited next year.”
Zhuang Nainai pouted at him.
The night passed without any dreams.
On the second day, when Zhuang Nainai woke up, that bunch of drunkards had already woken and were chatting in the living room.
