Tang Yuran had just finished speaking when she quickly turned and ran up toward her own room upstairs.
"Youyou, who's here??" Tang Yuran's mother, hearing the sudden silence outside, called out again, raising her voice from the kitchen.
"It's Gu Yu," Tang Yuran replied. "I'm going to change my clothes in my room; we're going out to watch a fireworks show."
"Xiaoyu??" Upon hearing the name Gu Yu, Tang Yuran's mother promptly walked out of the kitchen. She glanced toward the front door downstairs and then wiped her hands on her apron, saying, "Why are you standing at the door? Come in, it's so cold outside."
"Auntie, Happy New Year!" Gu Yu, standing at the door, smiled at Tang Yuran's mother and said, "No, it's alright. I won't come in. We're going out as soon as Tang Yuran is done changing."
"You two are going on a date, huh?" Tang Yuran's mother looked at Gu Yu with a teasing smile. "You young people are so passionate."
Gu Yu just smiled at her without saying anything.
