AMTBYIGA Chapter 80
by VolareGu Nian didn’t hear clearly, and just assumed the person in his arms was drunk and being affectionate, so he didn’t take it to heart. He gently wiped him clean, changed him into pajamas, and tucked him into the quilt. Then he got into bed himself, comfortably holding Lin Sui and closing his eyes.
The revelry downstairs didn’t stop because of the absence of the two of them. On the contrary, it intensified.
Relying on the good soundproofing so the people upstairs couldn’t hear, Jiang Sheng gesticulated wildly, shouting, “Come on, come on, want to bet? Guess what Gu Nian and Lin Sui went upstairs to do. I bet they definitely kissed!”
Du Wanbai raised both hands, “I bet they even hugged!”
“How can you guys be like this? If Brother Nian finds out, he’ll punish you.” Zhou Shan feigned condemnation, glancing at the stairs with the corner of his eye, quickly adding in a low voice, “I bet they’re helping each other!”
“…”
Jun Changfeng, the only one present who wasn’t close to Gu Nian, held his wine glass, watching his senior’s enthusiastic appearance, and grinded his teeth in annoyance.
He hadn’t even sorted out his own feelings yet, but he was so concerned about others.
“But, how are you going to confirm the results?” The jealous Jun Changfeng lightly poured a bucket of cold water on them. “Are you going to ask President Gu?”
“…”
The three people who had been talking so loudly just now seemed to have had a mute button pressed. After looking at each other for a moment, they all sat back on the sofa.
“Hehehe, I think so too. Gambling is not encouraged, we can’t do that.” Jiang Sheng was the first to speak, looking like he had learned from his mistakes.
“Yes, yes, yes.” Du Wanbai and Zhou Shan nodded frantically.
Jun Changfeng: …
That’s it?
Jun Changfeng raised his glass and drank the remaining wine in one gulp. Because he drank too quickly, his face flushed red. He supported his forehead, his voice a little weak, “Senior, I’m a little dizzy.”
Zhou Shan became nervous, “Did you drink too much? Let me help you to the guest room to rest.”
Jun Changfeng frowned and thought for a while, finally nodding reluctantly after a long time. He seemed very unwilling to stay overnight. But Jiang Sheng and Du Wanbai, who were watching, clearly saw the corner of this guy’s lips curl up when Zhou Shan helped him up!
Ah! Scheming man!
Du Wanbai cursed fiercely in her heart, smiling sweetly and waving to Zhou Shan, and even specially instructed, “Take good care of him.”
Hehe, watching another fool get flirted with is also quite interesting.
In the blink of an eye, only Jiang Sheng and Du Wanbai were left in the living room. The two of them occupied the spacious and comfortable sofa, cuddling together and watching the Spring Festival Gala. It was extremely sweet.
A few hours passed in a flash. The TV rang with the countdown chime. Du Wanbai glanced at her watch, “There are five minutes left, should we wake them up?”
Jiang Sheng pointed upstairs with a look of horror, “You dare?”
The two looked at each other and tacitly shrank back on the sofa.
At the same time, in the master bedroom upstairs, Gu Nian was sleeping soundly while holding Lin Sui. Suddenly, an ear-piercing alarm clock sound exploded in his ear, accompanied by the heart-rending screams of a screaming chicken, instantly waking him up.
Gu Nian was a little dazed when he opened his eyes. After a while, he realized that it was the sound from Lin Sui’s mobile phone.
Lin Sui also woke up, lying next to Gu Nian in a daze. He squinted and spaced out for a while, then suddenly his whole body jolted. He sat up with a start, fumbling to turn off the alarm.
“Let’s go, let’s go.” Lin Sui glanced out the window and breathed a sigh of relief. He turned his head, urging Gu Nian while getting out of bed and putting on his clothes, “It’s going to be too late!”
Gu Nian was at a loss. Seeing that Lin Sui was not completely sober, he almost fell when he got out of bed to find his shoes. He subconsciously reached out to support him, confused, “What?”
“Aiya!” Lin Sui grabbed Gu Nian’s hand, his amber eyes shining brightly in the darkness, “You’ll know in a moment!”
After saying that, Lin Sui stopped talking. He dragged and pulled Gu Nian from the bed onto the wheelchair, dragging his slippers and rushing downstairs to the door.
Du Wanbai and Zhou Shan on the sofa looked puzzled when they saw this, “What are you going out for so late?”
Lin Sui didn’t look back. He didn’t bother to explain and opened the door and left.
“…” Jiang Sheng and Du Wanbai looked at each other, then got up and put on their shoes and chased after them at the same time.
There’s gossip!
So, in the silent, late-night residential area, a scene of four people chasing, two in front and two behind, appeared. One person in front was even sitting in a wheelchair being pushed, the wheels rolling over the ground making a whooshing sound, even more eerie in the midnight night.
If it weren’t for the strong New Year’s atmosphere, it could have been put directly into a horror movie.
Lin Sui ran all the way to the wide lawn he had found in advance in the park. Overhead was a quiet sky, unobstructed. It was very quiet around, and only the sound of Lin Sui’s heavy breathing could be heard.
Gu Nian patted Lin Sui on the back, helplessly saying, “What are you in such a hurry for?”
Lin Sui smiled, took out his mobile phone, and just happened to have one minute left until the New Year’s countdown. He sent a message neatly.
A few seconds later, the four digits on the digital clock cleared to zero – it was zero o’clock.
“Bang bang bang.”
At the same time, a loud noise suddenly exploded in the calm sky. Gu Nian looked up and saw countless fireworks blooming in the sky, one after another, illuminating the sky as if it were daytime, shocking people speechless.
“Happy New Year!” In the deafening sound of fireworks, Lin Sui’s eyes were stained with the colorful light of the fireworks. He shouted as loudly as he could, “Gu Nian! Happy New Year!”
“Bang bang bang.”
The sound of fireworks was endless. Lin Sui’s voice in it was like a small boat in the sea, easily drowned out, but Gu Nian heard it.
Gu Nian turned to look at Lin Sui’s sparkling eyes. The young man’s face was illuminated by the fireworks into a bright and dark color. The beautiful and moist amber pupils flickered with a light more dazzling than the fireworks overhead.
Gu Nian didn’t know what to say for a moment, and said in a hoarse voice, “Happy New Year.”
Lin Sui grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth, and looked up at the fireworks overhead, his eyes full of amazement.
Although he had prepared it himself, this was actually the first time he had set off fireworks himself.
This was a surprise carefully prepared for Gu Nian. But later on, Lin Sui was the one who became immersed in it. The person who was really receiving the gift, except at the very beginning, almost always looked at Lin Sui beside him, without blinking.
After a full twenty minutes, the fireworks finally slowly disappeared from the horizon. Lin Sui lowered his head with lingering interest, and said with a smile, “Do you like this surprise!”
Gu Nian also showed a similar smile, and said softly, “I like it very much.”
These simple three words made Lin Sui feel satisfied. No matter how much money and energy he had spent before, it was all worth it. He hummed a song and pushed Gu Nian towards home.
After the two of them walked away, two figures walked out of the nearby grove, precisely Jiang Sheng and Du Wanbai.
“I didn’t expect Lin Sui to look shy, but he’s actually so proactive.” Du Wanbai sighed, recalling the fireworks show just now, her heart was still pounding, it was really too heartwarming.
On such a romantic New Year’s Eve, adding a fireworks show just for you, who could resist that?
No wonder even Gu Nian, this old block of wood, was moved.
Jiang Sheng was thoughtful, preparing to ask Lin Sui where he found the fireworks factory when he got back.
It was too late for New Year’s, but he could also do something like this for Du Wanbai on the Lantern Festival.
When Lin Sui and Gu Nian returned home, it was already half-past twelve. The cold wind had been blowing for so long that Lin Sui was completely sober. Added the stimulation of the fireworks, he couldn’t fall asleep for a while. He lay down for a while and tossed and turned, so he simply sat up and started to organize the photos he had taken today.
Mainly the ones Gu Nian took, from preparing during the day to eating together at night, there were photos and videos. Lin Sui flipped through it once and couldn’t help but blush – how are these shots all aimed at him? The others only showed parts of their bodies, only him, all close-ups.
Lin Sui used Bluetooth to transfer them to his mobile phone, repeatedly watching them for a while, and the more he looked, the more he liked them. He couldn’t help but open his personal social account, selected a photo of him and Gu Nian, and clicked send.
After sending it, he felt it was about time and closed his eyes to prepare to sleep. But after a few minutes, Lin Sui picked up his phone again and posted a video on his live broadcast account.
The video was only ten seconds long. The content was Lin Sui feeding Gu Nian a newly cooked braised prawn with a smile. The shell was peeled off, leaving only the red shrimp meat, which looked full of appetite.

After doing all this, Lin Sui was finally willing to put down his mobile phone, turned around and threw himself into Gu Nian’s arms, comfortably closing his eyes and brewing sleepiness.
The next day, all six people uniformly woke up late. When Lin Sui woke up, he was being held tightly by Gu Nian. The man’s cold and distinct face was right in front of him, with a bit more gentleness because of his deep sleep. His long eyelashes hung down quietly, looking well-behaved.
Lin Sui’s eyes widened, and he reached out to play with Gu Nian’s eyelashes. After a while, Gu Nian woke up, and smiled brightly at him, “Happy New Year!”
“Happy New Year.” Gu Nian’s voice was hoarse from just waking up, and he said with a deep laugh.
The two tidied up and got out of bed, and were surprised to find that the mess downstairs had been cleaned up. Jiang Sheng and Du Wanbai were lying directly on the sofa and had made do with it for the night. Of course, it wasn’t that they didn’t want to go to the guest room to sleep, but that they had gossiped together until too late last night and had fallen asleep without realizing it.
After a while, Zhou Shan and Jun Changfeng also came out, from the same room.
Lin Sui paused when he saw them, but seeing that Zhou Shan looked no different except that he hadn’t had enough sleep, he didn’t ask any more questions, and went to heat up the leftovers from last night for lunch.
After eating, the four said goodbye and went home to continue catching up on sleep. Lin Sui sat in the suddenly quiet living room and felt a little uncomfortable for a moment, staring blankly into space.
“We’ll have another chance to play together next time.” Gu Nian rubbed Lin Sui’s hair.
Lin Sui raised his head and grinned.
After the New Year, everything continued again. Gu Nian insisted on rehabilitation every day, and Lin Sui was busy with his graduation project and thesis. The two didn’t see each other for long each day, and were fighting for the future in different places at the same time.
This situation didn’t last long – because Gu Nian’s birthday was coming up.
Coincidentally, Gu Nian’s birthday was on the same day as the Lantern Festival. One afternoon, Lin Sui discussed graduation matters with Shi Yan, and asked for advice with a troubled expression.
“A birthday present for your lover?” Shi Yan stroked his chin, looked at the young man opposite him who looked well-behaved even when he was frowning, and suddenly smiled maliciously.
“Everyone is an adult, of course the best thing is that kind of thing.”
