Chapter 179 Tomorrow is better
Today, New Year's Eve.
Because of the time difference, Mike got up early in the morning and watched the gala.
As a middle-aged and elderly person who is nostalgic, he sees this thing every year, and if he doesn't see it, he always feels that something is missing.
Prepared breakfast for Gwen, and after sending Gwen to school, he prepared leisurely by himself.
In the afternoon, after Gwen got out of school, seeing Mike busy, Gwen also began to help with great interest.
Gwen said happily but curiously, "Dad, what day is today?"
"Spring Festival, an ancient festival in China."
Mike, who was standing at the door, explained while sticking to the couplet.
"Spring Festival?" Gwen read it again, and then smiled happily.
She doesn't care if it's a festival there, as long as it's a festival, she's happy.
"Hey! Luke! Uncle John!"
Gwen turned his head, saw the father and son, waved his hands, and said, "We are going to celebrate the Spring Festival."
"Spring Festival?"
Luke looked at his father suspiciously.
John smiled and said, "This is the festival of China."
Then he looked at Mike curiously and said, "Mike, why are you celebrating this festival?"
Mike smiled and said, "Because it's very important to me."
John nodded and said, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Mike lifted the couplet in his hand and said, "Come on, stick it together, it means good luck."
Does it mean good luck?
John groaned and walked over with a smile.
After posting the couplet, John wanted to leave, but Mike felt that it was too deserted for him and Gwen, so he left the father and son.
It was getting dark and Mike was busy in the kitchen.
For today's New Year's Eve dinner,
He specially made a character card last night.
In the end, when he brought a plate of carved jade dragons and a plate of phoenixes with wings outstretched from bean sprouts, Gwen and the three were stunned when they saw the dishes that were comparable to works of art.
"Haha! Don't just look at it!"
Mike brought drinks and wine and said, "Hurry up!"
"I can't bear to destroy it." John sighed and said, "It's a work of art, Mike, you should go to the cooking competition."
Mike smiled and said, "The food is eaten when it is made."
With that said, Mike was the first to act, picking up a piece of beef and placing it in Gwen's bowl.
Gwen didn't care about his crumbling front teeth, and immediately stuffed the meat into his mouth, but it was scalded. He fanned his mouth with his small hand, and was still breathing in cold air, but no matter what, he refused to put the meat in his mouth. Beef spat out.
"You glutton!"
Mike smiled and nodded to Gwen, passing the drink over.
Gwen took a sip and breathed out comfortably. Seeing John and his son looking at her, his face was slightly red, he picked up a piece of meat and blew it twice, but he didn't think...
blah blah blah!
A front tooth flew out and fell on the table.
After the scene was quiet, Gwen turned his head dully to Mike.
Mike's mouth twitched, but he couldn't hold back after all.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
John and Luke on the opposite side couldn't help laughing too.
Gwen's original blushing face instantly became the same as the little monkey's butt.
Mike held back his laughter and said to John, "I'll deal with it."
John smiled, picked up the tooth and handed it to Gwen, saying, "Put it away, it is said that the little tooth fairy will come to collect your tooth at night, and then your tooth will grow slowly."
Gwen was surprised: "Really?"
"Yes!" John handed over his teeth and said, "However, she will only come in your dreams, so you have to sleep well at night!"
Gwen nodded vigorously.
"Go, go and rinse your mouth."
Mike dragged Gwen into the bathroom and asked Gwen to rinse his mouth. He found a small bag, packed Gwen's teeth, and handed it to Gwen.
Gwen put it away carefully, opened his mouth to smile, and the smile that was missing a front tooth looked particularly cute.
Back at the dinner table, Gwen continues to wrestle with the delicious New Year's Eve dinner.
But Mike took out two wine glasses and said to John, "Try it? Huaguo Liquor."
John hesitated and said, "Okay."
After taking a sip of wine, John drank a little violently, choked, and his face flushed with coughing, but he felt the spicy heat that rushed directly from his mouth to his stomach, but he was suddenly fascinated by this feeling.
It's painful, but it's cool.
He likes this feeling.
He couldn't help but took another sip from his glass.
Mike raised his eyebrows and said, "John, drink slowly."
John nodded, his face was a little red, and he and Mike chatted while drinking.
The more he drank, the more Mike felt nothing, but his neighbor got a little drunk and talked more and told his own story.
Their family was originally very happy, but on the same morning as usual, the peace was broken by the police who suddenly came to the door. In front of him and Luke, his wife was arrested for 'murder'.
Although all the evidence points to her wife, her wife insists she is innocent.
In this regard, John and his son Luke are also convinced, and in the past two years, John has been looking for evidence, trying to rescue his wife.
"Mike, do you know?" John looked blankly, looking down at the clear wine in the glass, and said with difficulty, "Every time I go to prison to see her, it's a torment for her and me."
Luke lowered his head and his mood dropped rapidly.
Mike took the glass, touched John's glass, and said, "I believe you."
John was shocked and said, "Thank you."
Mike raised his glass slightly, looked at the current time, and said, "The last one, you can't drink any more tonight."
John smiled naively and raised his glass.
Mike paused slightly, raised his glass at 8:00 a.m., and said, "I wish you a better tomorrow."
John: "Tomorrow, better!"
At the same time, Charles of X Academy, Eric who was thousands of miles away, and Clark who was wandering outside, also raised the cup in his hand when the pointer of the watch reached eight o'clock, and shook the glass in the distance with a smile on his face. Shake in one fell swoop.
Clark, who was in the jungle, put down the kettle, ate the grilled fish he made, and nodded with satisfaction.
After so many years, he has not been good at anything, but his cooking skills have become good.
He has already traveled all over the world, and his heart is like a polished gem, becoming more dazzling and purer.
On the other side, Charles also put down the wine glass.
The Black Queen is about to start action, and their plan is about to start. If the plan is successful, not only is X school expected to be built, but Eric can also control Hellfire, and then the two brothers can plan the next step.
In response to the opponent's action, they formed a team.
The team is already in place, just waiting for Eric's signal.
"Hope something goes well."
Charles chanted silently, suddenly patted his forehead, and muttered, "I don't know if Dad has prepared New Year's money for us today."
