750 Asking for a Man’s Promise? It’s Better to Ask for the National Football Team to Win the Championship

Grandpa Shi was skeptical, but he still looked at Xie Yunzhou with displeasure.

His granddaughter was the best in the world.

Men are not worthy!

Shi Xi helped Grandpa Shi back to the living room.

Xie Yunzhou followed behind.

During lunch, Xie Yunzhou’s seat was arranged to be extremely far away from Shi Xi.

It was as if it was redundant.

Shi Xi sat beside Grandpa Shi.

Xie Yunzhou looked at the little fellow beside him.

He couldn’t say the words of disdain.

Shi Xi looked at Grandpa Shi beside her and stood up to change seats with her younger cousin.

Didn’t Grandpa Shi favor boys over girls?

He should spend more time with his grandson.

This was the man who would inherit the Shi family’s legacy.

Her younger cousin was ignorant. Seeing that Shi Xi had given him candy, he obediently changed his position.

Grandpa Shi: I don’t want a snotty little brat!

Grandpa Shi was so angry that he blew at his beard when he saw the little boy eating candy and blowing his nose.

The quiet and cute little granddaughter was still the cutest!

Shi Xi sat beside Xie Yunzhou and picked up some food for him. “Don’t be reserved. Take the initiative to pick up whatever you want to eat.”

“Alright.” Xie Yunzhou looked at the girl beside him and felt that the New Year was a warm one.

Finally, he wasn’t lonely anymore.

Shi Xi left after eating, while the others were still drinking and playing at the table.

After a while, Xie Yunzhou also ran out and sent a message to ask where Shi Xi was.

Shi Xi thought, ‘He’s so clingy.’

Shi Xi, [I’m watching a movie in my room.]

The message bar kept showing [The other party is typing].

Shi Xi, [Come over and watch it together.]

Xie Yunzhou said politely, [Is it not good?]

A man and a woman were watching a movie alone in the girl’s room.

Shi Xi pointed in the direction for Xie Yunzhou. [Bring some melon seeds over.]

Xie Yunzhou carried the melon seeds lightly and went to Shi Xi’s room.

When he opened the door, he saw Shi Xi and Ning Yu sitting in the room.

A movie was projected on the wall.

Xie Yunzhou: …Why was there another person?

Ning Yu also finished eating in advance and ran away.

She was dragged along by Shi Xi to watch a movie.

Movie viewers +1 (Xie Yunzhou)

Xie Yunzhou ignored Ning Yu and sat beside Shi Xi. “Melon seeds, candies, and drinks.”

Not long after, Shi Shuo, who had run away without drinking, arrived.

Seeing Xie Yunzhou here, he frowned and sat between the two of them.

Xie Yunzhou: “…”

This was a far cry from the original scenario where the two of them sat together to watch a movie and could even kiss and hug.

At night, the Shi family ate dumplings.

Shi Xi counted and ate eight.

Superstitious girl.

Also, she had been eating so well during the past few days that she had gained a double chin.

She would be joining the production team after the new year!

She didn’t want to be Fat Xi!

After finishing the dumplings, she ran outside and started waiting.

The fireworks display outside the door had already begun.

Xie Yunzhou looked out of the French window.

It was snowing lightly, and the girl was dressed in fluffy clothes that were even more beautiful than the snow.

“Xi Xi has a simple personality and is very happy.” Shi Xu walked to Xie Yunzhou’s side and said, “Even if it’s just watching fireworks, she’ll be happy for half a day.”

“That’s good,” said Xie Yunzhou.

Shi Xu chuckled. “Of course, I want her to continue being happy.”

However, she had to grow up eventually.

Xie Yunzhou lowered his eyes for a moment and promised, “I’ll keep her pure and happy.”

“Do you know how long these fireworks will last?” Shi Xu suddenly asked.

“Feng City’s New Year’s Eve fireworks banquet will last for three hours without a break.” Xie Yunzhou grew up in Feng City, so he naturally knew about this.

Normally, other than special permission, fireworks were not allowed.

“Then do you know how this fireworks feast came about?”

“How did it come about?” Xie Yunzhou only knew that this was a tradition of Feng City, and he had even dug up the origin of the fireworks banquet.

“When Xi Xi was five, she said she liked to watch fireworks. So every year, Grandpa would set off fireworks for three hours in a row just to let her enjoy herself.”

Xie Yunzhou was startled.

Just because Shi Xi liked it, they had to set off fireworks for three hours every New Year’s Eve?

Shi Xu patted his shoulder and said, “Even if you don’t like Xi Xi anymore, don’t hurt her.”

Asking a man to keep his oath?

It was better to hope for the national football team to win the championship.

Xie Yunzhou walked outside and stood beside Shi Xi.
