235: Happy New Year!

More than half a month passed quickly, and Yang Mi returned.

She had finished filming all her scenes for the legend of zhen huan.

She didn't even hold a wrap party and headed straight back to Yanjing.

To her, the character she played wasn't very important, so there was no need for a wrap party that would only waste time.

It would not only waste Director Xu Gang and the crew's filming time but also delay her return home.

Having not seen Chen Le for over a month, Yang Mi missed him dearly.

She hadn't felt much before, but the closer it got to the end of the year, the more she wanted to see Chen Le.

Chen Le picked up Yang Mi at the airport, and then the two of them went home.

It was already the end of the month, and in one more day, it would be the start of a new year.

"Old Chen, I came back at the right time, didn't I? Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Let's spend it together!" Yang Mi said gently, looking at Chen Le from the passenger seat with a smile, her eyes full of longing and affection.

"Haha, it really is perfect timing. I thought I'd have to spend New Year's Eve alone this year." Hearing Yang Mi's words, Chen Le also nodded with a smile.

Actually, he didn't feel much about New Year's Eve; before meeting Yang Mi, he hadn't cared about it at all.

It was just that Yang Mi cared about these things, so he followed her lead in celebrating New Year's Eve and New Year's Day.

"How could that be? We'll spend New Year's Day together this year," Yang Mi continued.

Soon, the two of them arrived home.

After putting her things away, Yang Mi began thinking about how to spend New Year's Day tomorrow.

Chen Le's mind wasn't on that; he had no particular ideas for New Year's Day and was happy to go along with whatever Yang Mi wanted.

At that moment, he was thinking about how to spend the Lunar New Year.

There was only about a month left until the Lunar New Year, and Chen Le hadn't decided whether to go back to his own home or to Yang Mi's.

Last year, Yang Mi had gone home with him for the Lunar New Year, so logically, he should spend it at her house this year.

But the thought of his parents spending the Lunar New Year alone at home made him feel a bit guilty.

After all, he only went back once a year.

If he didn't go back this year, his parents would surely be disappointed.

They might not say anything, but they would definitely feel it in their hearts.

Thinking of this, Chen Le decided to bring his parents to Yanjing for the Lunar New Year.

He would let the two families meet.

At this time, Yang Mi was still thinking about how to spend New Year's Day, completely unaware that Chen Le had already decided to bring his parents to Yanjing for the Lunar New Year.

If she knew, she would probably get nervous.

However, this wouldn't happen so soon; he needed some time to make arrangements.

Originally, Father Chen and Mother Chen spent every Lunar New Year at home, with the whole extended family chatting and eating together.

If they were going to come to Yanjing for the Lunar New Year now, he would definitely have to explain things to his Younger Uncle.

Moreover, he had to tell his parents in advance and couldn't wait until the holiday was almost there.

Chen Le looked at Yang Mi but didn't tell her what was on his mind for the time being.

He planned to tell her after New Year's Day; otherwise, if he told her now, she definitely wouldn't be in the mood to enjoy the holiday.

He didn't want to spoil her mood.

At the same time, he was also a bit nervous; this was his first time bringing his parents to Yanjing for the Lunar New Year, and it would be at Yang Mi's house, spending it with her parents.

With the parents from both families coming together, Chen Le didn't dare to imagine what might happen.

"Old Chen, let's go for a stroll nearby on New Year's Day! Watch a movie, grab some food, and ring in the new year together!" Yang Mi suggested after thinking for a long time.

"Sure, whatever you say," Chen Le nodded.

When it came to going out and having fun, he usually didn't make the decisions.

Similarly, Yang Mi couldn't think of much else to do for the moment.

Besides wandering around crowded places and spending New Year's Eve with the person she loved, there didn't seem to be much else to do.

"By the way, Old Chen, you need to dress up properly tomorrow. We'll go out for a stroll in the evening, and I'll buy you a few outfits while we're at it. The clothes you're wearing now are still the ones I bought for you two years ago; you never buy clothes for yourself." As Yang Mi spoke, she looked at the clothes Chen Le was wearing.

She noticed that Chen Le's clothes were indeed the ones she had bought him two years ago; although they still looked quite new, the style was already several generations out of date.

Yang Mi looked at his clothes and frowned slightly.

"Ah? It's fine, isn't it? Can't I still wear these clothes?" Chen Le was stunned by Yang Mi's words and looked down at his clothes.

He had no particular pursuit when it came to clothes; as long as they were wearable, not too ugly, and normal, they were fine.

He had been wearing the clothes Yang Mi bought him two years ago until now. She had bought quite a lot back then, enough to last him for several years.

But Yang Mi thought differently. She had many clothes; two-thirds of the wardrobe space was filled with her clothes, while Chen Le's only took up one-third.

And that was only because Yang Mi had bought him a bunch of clothes; otherwise, he would probably only have a few items.

"Just because you can wear them doesn't mean you should. Your current styles are too old; they're all outdated from two years ago." Yang Mi felt somewhat helpless hearing Chen Le's response.

Chen Le's indifferent attitude toward dressing himself was something she could hardly tolerate.

"We'll go shopping tonight. I'll pick out a few nice outfits for you," Yang Mi said.

"Okay," Chen Le agreed.

Since he had to accompany her out anyway, if she wanted to buy him clothes, then let her.

"Mhm." Yang Mi nodded slightly.

Fortunately, Chen Le wasn't the type to refuse when someone bought him clothes; otherwise, Yang Mi really wouldn't be able to stand it.

When evening came, Yang Mi changed her outfit. It was winter, and the weather outside was quite cold.

It hadn't snowed in Yanjing yet, but the temperature was already below zero.

Yang Mi wore a thick overcoat with a knitted sweater underneath.

A warm culotte with thick leggings wrapping her legs, showing off her slender, long legs.

She also had on a knitted hat and earmuffs.

When Chen Le saw Yang Mi dressed like this, a flash of amazement appeared in his eyes.

He, on the other hand, hadn't dressed up and was still in his usual clothes.

Yang Mi didn't say anything when she saw Chen Le like that.

She simply pulled him out the door.

They arrived at a shopping district near their home, where there was a commercial complex housing many international brand stores.

High-end clothing stores were particularly numerous there.

Yang Mi pulled Chen Le into a brand-name men's clothing store, intending to pick out a few suitable outfits for him.

After all, dressing Chen Le up more handsomely would be more pleasing to her own eyes as well.

Just as men find beautiful women easy on the eyes, women feel the same way about handsome men.

Over an hour later, Chen Le was carrying seven or eight more bags, all filled with his new clothes.

"Mi Mi, that's enough. We shouldn't buy anymore; it's already plenty. You wouldn't want me to wear these clothes for several years again, would you?" Chen Le said quickly when he saw Yang Mi trying to pull him to buy more.

Yang Mi thought what Chen Le said made sense.

She bought clothes to have a different outfit every day, but Chen Le was different; a few outfits could be rotated for months.
