Chapter 497: 460 The New Year has arrived (two updates combined into one)_3

"You two talk," Tang Su said, ready to leave but not in a hurry for this moment.

"Here’s the thing, from the first to the third day of the new year, Xu Jie and I will rest for three days and that should be enough. We were thinking of opening on the fourth day. We’ll pay you for the coffee beans, utilities, and everything else. The money we make won’t count as store revenue, what do you think?"

"Sister Tang Su, I know our request is a bit much, it’s just..."

"It’s not too much," Tang Su said with a smile.

"You can use the coffee beans as you like, and I can afford the utility bills for those ten or so days. The money you make is yours to keep, just consider it a favor you owe me. Once the new year is over, I have a big matter to discuss with you."

"Sure," Zhou Hang and Xu Jie nodded. They trusted Tang Su one hundred percent. Although they didn’t yet know what Tang Su’s so-called big matter was, they believed that Tang Su would not cheat them.

"Alright, then enjoy the New Year’s Eve. I’ll come by in the morning that day to give you your New Year red envelopes."

"Mmm-hmm, thank you, Sister Tang Su."

"You’re welcome."

After finishing her business, Tang Su headed to the parking lot where Lu Han had just ended a phone call.

Tang Su didn’t ask whose call it was; Lu Han volunteered the information, "It’s a call from Old Man Lu."

"Oh."

Tang Su knew it was a call from her father-in-law.

Lu Han drove to the Tang family’s place. Tang Feng acted as the driver, with Tang Shengyi and Su Ruoan in the back seat, while Lu Han and Tang Su had bought many gift boxes on their way to meet them.

There were fruits, health supplements, and snacks for the kids, and as for the New Year’s money in red envelopes, Lu Han had prepared them the day before.

The money was freshly exchanged from the bank—all crisp hundred-yuan bills.

Lu Han put two thousand into each envelope.

For the two elders, it was a big red envelope with ten thousand each.

A very generous gesture, but Lu Han felt it was worth it because the first time he met Grandpa Tang, they had nothing but praise for him.

Lu Han was a grateful person; he remembered those who treated him well.

When the time came, he would repay the favor.

Similarly, he also remembered grievances. He had never forgotten the slap Ye Sichen had given Tang Su. Although the debt was settled, Ye Sichen would endure an even more miserable fate.

Tang Su leaned against the car window at the passenger side. It was New Year’s, after all; everyone was dressed in bright red, including her and Lu Han in their matching red down jackets.

Su Ruoan wore a black coat, accentuating her slender figure.

She called Su Yangming after hearing from Tang Su that instead of returning to Beijing with the crew, Su Yangming had stayed in Hua City.

Turns out, the kid wouldn’t answer his phone.

Su Ruoan then called her best friend. The phone rang for quite a while before Zhao Xinlan picked up, "Hello?"

"It’s me. The Tang family is having their reunion dinner early today. Do you want to join us in the countryside to get some fresh air? Don’t stay cooped up at home all the time; you’ll suffocate."

"No... no need."

Zhao Xinlan suddenly awoke with a start. When she saw clearly the man lying next to her, completely bare, she panicked.

"Uh, An’an, I’m in Kunshan on a trip, soaking in a hot spring. I’ve got some things to deal with here, so I’m going to hang up first."

"..."

Su Ruoan didn’t get a chance to speak before Zhao Xinlan hung up the phone hurriedly.

Su Ruoan furrowed her brows and complained to her children, "Why is your godmother acting so strangely?"

"What happened?" Tang Su asked.

"She’s going to soak in a hot spring during the New Year’s Festivities?"

"Wife, many people do that nowadays. Not everyone needs to stay home for the New Year. Some love to go out, to hike, to soak in hot springs. They are very good choices. When we retire, if we are not in a hurry to take care of grandchildren, we can do the same," said Tang Shengyi.

Su Ruoan pouted, "You seem to know all the trends."

After saying that, Su Ruoan got into the back seat.

Tang Shengyi walked to the front of Tang Su’s car, "Got everything? Should we go to that fruit shop at the intersection to get something more?"

"No need, Dad. We’ve got fruit, health products, the kids’ favorite snacks, and even seafood, frozen dumplings, and glutinous rice balls. I picked out everything for Grandpa and Grandma."

"They can buy all that stuff in their town," Tang Shengyi said, knowing that Tang Su was considerate, but also felt sorry that she was too tired.

Besides, it’s tiring to carry all that stuff from so far away.

"I know, but haven’t you always complained about the quality of the glutinous rice balls there? I also bought a few bags of your favorite flavors. If you’re staying with Grandpa and Grandma for the New Year, you can cook them at home."

"Very thoughtful of you. Alright, let’s set off. Buckle up."

"Mm."
