58 Chinese New Year Together

The Chinese New Year came the following day, but Shangguan Ning didn't go home. She actually had no home to go back to.

Jing Yichen didn't go back to Family Jing either. He spent the entire day with Shangguan Ning. They put up a couplet for good luck, hung up the "happiness" tag and pasted the red paper-cut patterns on the windows. Shangguan Ning had bought all this from the mall.

What had been the chances of both of them returning to China, this year? More so, because during the past few years, they spent Chinese New Year alone, away from home. This year was special because they were no longer alone at this time of the year. They had each other and a home, together.

Shangguan Ning didn't know much about Family Jing, but the way his grandma spoke to him about marriage, had left a deep impression on her. She felt that the old lady cared a lot about her grandson.

She asked hesitantly, "Is it okay… if you don't go home?"
