After this unpleasant episode, Yuan Chun's good mood for the New Year was halved.
Having spent New Year's Eve at Zhong Li Jing's house, she only stayed one night. By the afternoon of New Year's Day, she was already organizing to return home, despite Jiang Yuhua and Zhong Li Jing's efforts to persuade her to stay. Yuan Chun rode her bicycle home.
On the second day of the New Year, Wang Ziteng came over with a bag of snacks.
"Grandma said she's worried you might be bored spending the New Year alone, so she sent me to accompany you and go out." He said, placing the snacks on the table, "These are from relatives. I picked some of each and brought them for you to eat."
Yuan Chun tore open a cake packet, took a piece, and asked him, "How did you know I came back?"
"Zhongli Jun ran into my grandma at the courtyard when he went to pay New Year visits and mentioned Zhong Liqi bullying you. We figured you'd definitely come home."
