When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase

Xi Siyan originally wanted to casually watch a movie or something, but the sound of firecrackers outside was getting louder, making it impossible to hear anything, so he gave up.

Having a New Year’s Eve dinner alone was somewhat lonely, but Xi Siyan felt it wasn’t too bad. He ate slowly, watching the deepening night outside the window.

About an hour passed, and Xi Siyan was almost finished eating. He slowly cleaned up the dishes and fussed around a bit. Out of nowhere, the sound of the Spring Festival Gala came on.

Xi Siyan dried his hands and also turned on the computer, casually watching the Gala.

The Gala was on, but Xi Siyan’s gaze was on his phone. Today, his phone had been ringing almost all day with blessing messages from Zhou Chengchen; he hadn’t read many of them yet.

Even though he knew those messages were forwarded or seen online by her, Xi Siyan seriously read each one.

Surprisingly, that took more than forty minutes. He put down the phone, rubbed his brow, and checked the time—it was nine o’clock. He closed the computer, ready to do a few more competition sets, when suddenly he heard someone knocking at the door.

His upright body paused.

No way?

At this time, anyone coming to find him surely couldn’t be Zhang Yi or someone from the Li Family; it could only be...

In the next second, Xi Siyan was already at the door. The old door didn’t have a peephole, and he didn’t bother to check; he directly opened the door. A loud "bang" startled him, and then he saw the sky full of paper fireworks and Zhou Chengchen’s bright smile: "Happy New Year."

It really was her!

Xi Siyan’s face also showed a smile and was about to speak, but suddenly another head popped up behind Zhou Chengchen, and then another.

It wasn’t just her; An Rui and Zhou Qi were here too.

Xi Siyan was a bit bewildered. An Rui had already slapped him on the shoulder: "I tell you, Si Yan, you’re living quite the comfortable life."

Jokingly, An Rui made Xi Siyan pause, letting them inside, not counting the numerous times Zhou Chengchen had already come.

The other two, one was a rich kid, the other a wealthy playboy, yet neither of them had a hint of disdain for his humble little room. Each acted like they were the owner, casually finding a place to sit.

"What brought you guys here?"

Xi Siyan finally recovered and asked while pouring drinks for the three.

Zhou Chengchen was about to speak when An Rui lazily chimed in: "Of course we came to beat you at games."

An Rui, being the gaming nerd, couldn’t go three sentences without mentioning games. Zhou Chengchen gave him a look and said with a bright smile: "To set off fireworks, we’re going to set off fireworks together."

Outside the alley, a low-key black sedan was parked at the intersection. The four of them got out, and An Rui sensibly climbed into the front passenger seat. Xi Siyan and Zhou Chengchen sat in the back while Zhou Qi got into the driver’s seat.

Xi Siyan raised an eyebrow: "You... driving?"

"Hey, hey, what kind of look is that? I’m great at it, just no license."

Xi Siyan: "..."

Putting these two sentences together, aren’t you the least bit embarrassed?

Zhou Chengchen whispered from the side: "My brother’s been driving since he was twelve, but he really doesn’t have a license."

Xi Siyan’s mouth twitched, choosing not to speak further, figuring this guy was counting on the traffic police being home for the New Year too.
