Gellar Jaxton Olson sighed with relief and immediately grabbed his jacket, but his mouth was still stiff.
“It’s okay to go later, but there’s nothing you need me to do here, Bohdi Olson and the others got it pretty good, so I won’t be in the way here.”
“Yes, you do get quite in the way here.”
Amelia Bright smiles helplessly.
As she waited for Gellar Jaxton Olson to get dressed and go, she suddenly turned her head and whispered
“Brother Jaxton Olson, thank you so much for this year.”
“It’s not good when you say that.”
Gellar Jaxton Olson raised an eyebrow and quickly reached out his hand, making a gesture to flick her forehead.
While her eyes were closed in a tense defensive manner, the big hand stretched out and just touched her gently on the forehead, very warm and unexpectedly.
By the time Amelia Bright looked back, Gellar Jaxton Olson was striding away, his cool voice coming from the doorway
“Let’s go, get in touch if something comes up.”
She shouted with a smile at the door.
“Say hello to the New Year for my sister-in-law.”
The sound of Bohdi Olson and Emily Guan talking to Gellar Jaxton Olson came from far away at the door, and after the engine sounded, Gellar Jaxton Olson’s car drove away from the courtyard entrance.
When it was almost dark, the pair of living treasures at the door finally finished putting up all the Spring Festival couplets.
Aunt Zhou of the Gellar family also prepared a table for the New Year’s Eve dinner.
The restaurant’s large round table was full, the hot pot was surrounded by chopped meat and vegetables, bubbling hot, the roast duck was golden, the fried shrimp was lined with green vegetables very crystal clear, the room was warm and baked.
Emily Guan gulps with her chopsticks.
“Why hasn’t Ebaek come yet? Let me make a phone call to hurry up.”
“Don’t fight it,” Amelia Bright explained with a gentle smile as she first lowered the beef meatballs from the plate in front of her into the hot pot and cooked them.
“He said there’s a surgery exchange today and he won’t be there until later, so we’ll eat first.”
“Well,” Emily Guan raised her eyebrows, “then he is really not lucky, Aunt Zhou’s cooking such a delicious dish must be eaten while it is hot.
Inside the kitchen, Aunt Zhou was making soup, and smiled as she peeked out of the window.
“I just like to cook for Miss Guan, Miss Guan has the sweetest mouth, our second young master, ah, in the last life to cultivate the blessing to find Miss Guan such a good girlfriend.”
“Hear that, you’ve been blessed in your last life.”
Emily Guan is smiling like a flower, squeezing her eyebrows at Bohdi Olson.
Bohdi Olson had a sad face.
“Why do I feel I owe her money in my last life! It’s made me so rebellious that even you, Aunt Zhou, are helping her now.”
“That means you’re a substandard person, right?”
Amelia Bright helplessly shook his head, “You two have to go back to Jiangnan tomorrow for New Year, this moment also fighting mouth, I see tomorrow to the Guan family you say in front of your several brothers not to say that his character sub.”
Emily Guan easily passed Bohdi Olson’s family, but Bohdi Olson still has a long way to go here.
This year, Emily Guan’s elder brother personally issued a decree, naming Bohdi Olson to accompany her sister to spend New Year’s Eve, which sounds like a sign of relief, but in Bohdi Olson’s opinion, it is a big hole, for this reason has been nervous for several days and even insomnia.
Speaking of this, Emily Guan swallowed the shrimp in her mouth and said, “I’m worried.
“We’re all gone, are you okay to stay here alone?”
“It’s still early, only 32 weeks,” Amelia Bright said as she lowered her head and rubbed her belly, “it’ll be after Chinese New Year.”
“That’s less than two months left. If I had known that Bohdi Olson’s brother was going on vacation to Switzerland, I wouldn’t have promised my brother to go back this year.”
Emily Guan frowned and freed a hand to cover her stomach, “Ril Bao, you can behave yourself, come out on time, don’t toss your mommy, your mommy is already having a hard time.”
“Don’t worry, he’s a good boy,” Amelia Bright’s tone is now very gentle, and her words are soft and sticky, more like a Jiangnan woman than Emily Guan’s. “He’ll be born safely.”
Bohdi Olson gave the two of them food and also said with relief.
“It’s okay, we’ll be back on the fifth day of the first month, and there’s Dr. Wen, and Miyagawa is also spending New Year’s Eve in Hounslow, so what are you worried about?”
“It’s a good thing there’s Ebai, otherwise I would have had to wait until Lucy had her baby before leaving Hounslow.”
Emily Guan’s words warmed Amelia Bright’s heart.
For her and the child, the six months, Emily Guan did not accept to go out of town to shoot the scene, all very short variety show, either in Hounslow Film City can be shot.
“All right, don’t worry about it, have a happy New Year,” Amelia Bright greeted with a glance at the kitchen, “Aunt Zhou, don’t be busy, come and eat with us.”
Aunt Zhou laughed heartily.
“Hey, okay, where’s the soup, I’ll come when I’m done.”
“…”
Hounslow Square, fireworks at twelve o’clock on time, because living in the suburbs, there is no restriction on fireworks, so there are also many firecrackers in the neighborhood of the family, far from the beeping and boopping sounds rise and fall.
Emily Guan and Bohdi Olson had an early morning flight, and after 12:00, they said goodbye and left.
In the large villa, only Aunt Zhou was left in the kitchen to clean up the dishes.
Amelia Bright glanced at the television as the nation rejoiced, the news was being broadcast live, the state dinner was continuing, and as the camera swept across one frame, she saw a familiar figure, poised and calm, talking to a military interviewer about national defense and security.
“Hounslow Military District will do everything in its power to stamp out all ordnance dealing and drug dealing in the country …”
After watching for a while, she took the remote control and turned off the TV, and ordered towards the kitchen as she went upstairs.
“Aunt Zhou, so late don’t pack up, you also have to catch a plane back home, go early, don’t miss the plane, the Spring Festival tickets are not easy to buy.”
“Hey, this point is packed up and gone, Miss Bright you go to bed early.”
“Good.”
After going upstairs to wash up, Amelia Bright got under the covers, the pillows were padded high, and her side head could see the tall sycamore trees outside the window, the Bright children had fallen off, and the slender branches were brushing the window glass in the evening breeze.
Outside is very busy, the sound of firecrackers louder and louder, the more set off the house quiet.
“Clang”, downstairs suddenly came the sound of broken porcelain, accompanied by a scream, soon drowned in the sound of firecrackers.
Amelia Bright’s hand clutching the quilt suddenly tightened and she lifted the quilt and carefully got out of bed.
After opening the door, she realized that the lights downstairs had been turned off at some point, and at the moment it was pitch black below, with the only light source coming from the bedroom behind her.
“Aunt Zhou …”
She held the stairs, holding her stomach in one hand, and carefully descended the stairs, taking each step steadily.
“Aunt Zhou, are you still there?”
A cold wind passed through the living room, wrapped in a bitter chill, and blew her out of her skin.
Out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly glanced at the living room window that was open.
To be precise, the glass shattered and shattered all over the place.
It is this moment, the back of the head suddenly hit a gust of cloudy wind.
