Yeh Keilan raised her eyebrows and looked at Cheng Anya with a pitiful expression, saying, "Oh my gosh, Grandmother, why didn't you say so earlier Look, the little darling's hands are red from slamming the table. It’s too heart-wrenching."

Tang Shuwen was even more speechless.

Clearly, he had been asked whether a date had been set, but instead of answering, both were about to start fighting.

"The date is chosen. January 1st, it’s an auspicious day," Wen Lan said.

Cheng Anya widened her eyes, "Today is the 24th. Getting married on the 1st A week's time isn't enough, Wen Lan, Tang Si, why are you rushing so much if you’re worried your daughter-in-law will run away"

Tang Si didn’t interject; instead, Wen Lan said, "Oh, don’t mention it. My son is not reliable, and we really need to get this done before he runs off."

Tang Mandong raised her thumb in approval while Tang Shuwen coughed a few times. She wished her mother could give him some face.

Chen Xieru lowered her head but didn’t speak.

She had been without family for many years, only with Xiaoni, and it was really hard to raise her alone. For the first time, she felt this warm atmosphere of harmony, and this big family was truly very comforting.

Surely, Xiaoni would receive a lot more love.

And during this year, he would receive many red envelopes and much care from many people, no longer having to depend solely on her for the New Year's celebration.

This was enough.

Cheng Anya also looked at Wen Lan and Ye Feimo, thinking seriously. It seemed like this son of hers wasn’t reliable either; should she hurry up and arrange things before it’s too late

"Xieru姐, I want to be a bridesmaid," said Wen Lan.

Chen Xieru woke from her reverie and nodded with a smile. Ye Feimo frowned; what kind of bridesmaid Was he going to be the best man

Tang Shuwen saw that she was distracted, feeling slightly displeased inside.

"To put it this way, I will have to stay until Shuwen gets married," said Ye Ningyuan with a raised eyebrow as he looked at Xu Nuo and smiled gracefully. "Nuonuo, don’t take advantage of the situation."

The anti-terror organization recently clashed with a terrorist group in the Middle East, where they captured some of Ye Ningyuan's viral weapons. Of course, Ye Ningyuan also arrested several of their agents, none of whom managed to escape.

The conflict has been quite intense lately.

This is an affair without any room for sentiment.

"Who took advantage of the situation The wicked always file complaints first."

After a silent night, Ye Tianyu finally spoke up, "Dad, you're the one taking advantage. Mom acts very uprightly; it's different from your usual underhanded tactics."

Ye KeLan, being Dad's confidante, hugged Ye Ningyuan and said, "Brother is biased. Where exactly is Mom upright People would say that Dad is the upright one while Mom is devious when you tell them this."

Ye Feimo declared, "Big sister, I support you getting rid of him."

"She wants to, but unfortunately she can't. The batch sent as a birthday gift last time wasn't given daily; next time if you want something else, forget it. Your dozen little pigs are still being kept by me, and I'll kill a couple if I'm not in the mood." Ye Ningyuan explained.

Tang Shuwen chuckled, "Whatever Big Brother and Sister play around with is fine as long as they don't come to our territory. The younger brother would be quite difficult to handle."

"A bunch of them," Xu Nuo coolly sipped her juice.

The men laughed while Chen Xier and Nuannuan bent their heads, muttering something happily among themselves.

Ye San and Tang Si are retired figures who don't concern themselves with matters in the circle. These affairs belong to the younger generation now.

When Tang Mandong was eating her dessert, she suddenly looked up and asked Nuannuan, "Do you know when the final exams start"

Nuannuan shook her head, feeling utterly clueless, as it had been over a month since the last time she thought about this.

Tang Mandong's lips curled. "Next month on the 14th, the final exams begin; your performance department is suffering terribly. This year, all subjects are closed-book exams with strict invigilation and difficult questions. Don't fail any courses, or you'll be in the newspapers; this semester, you've barely attended any classes."

Nuannuan was speechless.

She felt heartbroken; there were too many shootings this year, leaving her with little time for attending classes indeed.

Nuannuan patted her shoulder. "It's fine, Ye San used to always score 59 before. There's nothing to fear about failing a course; just let Feimo help you tamper with your grades when the time comes."

warm, "

This is encouraging failing a class

"Failing a class I'm so envious. My brother and I never went to school; we're illiterate and don't understand the concept of failing a class," Ye Ke Lan pouted. Warm and Chen Xueru exchanged glances, having not gone to school

illiterate

If someone like them could be considered illiterate, then everyone in the world would prefer to be illiterate.

Somewhere halfway through the gathering, Tang Shuwen's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and casually stood up, leaving the private room. "Yun Ning, what is it"

He felt apologetic towards Zhao Yun Ning.

Not being able to be with her was a regret of Tang Shuwen's.

"Shu Wen, today is Christmas Eve," Zhao Yun Ning's voice was soft and gentle. Just by hearing the sound, one could tell that she was an enchanting lady.

Tang Wen grunted in acknowledgment. "Merry Christmas."

Zhao Yun Ning fell silent for a moment. Her voice softened slightly, with a hint of grievance. "Every year on Christmas Eve, you would come to find me; we always spent it together, Shu Wen. This year, aren't you going to look for me"

Tang Shuwen frowned. That was right; despite them not being together, he had gone to see her every year during the holiday season. Every year, he would prepare surprises and gifts with care.

"I'm sorry, it's a gathering between Ye and Tang families," Tang Shuwen said resolutely. Originally, he planned on going to see her, as this was something he had been accustomed to for so many years. However, upon thinking about his marriage to Chen Xueru and the promise he made,

he threw away the gifts he prepared.

The sound of Zhao Yun Ning crying came through the phone. Tang Shuwen's heart ached. "Yun Ning, forget me; goodbye."

He hung up without hearing her last words, 'I'll be waiting for you at our usual place.'

The two families had an uproarious late-night feast until the early hours of the morning.

After leaving Coconut River, Ye Feimo and Warm took a leisurely walk around the nearby square. They weren't in any hurry to head home as tonight was lively everywhere with the festive atmosphere. Hand in hand, they strolled around the square for quite some time, admiring the fireworks rising up in the distance.

Very beautiful.

"What about your Christmas gift" Ye Feimo asked her.

The warmth of her hands rubbing together felt nice, but the weather was quite cold. Seeing this, Ye Feimo pulled her hand into his pocket, and she smiled warmly saying it felt much better. He then inquired again about the gift, to which Warmth replied, "I've been too busy to remember, besides I don't usually celebrate Christmas."

"Are you not a human being"

"At least half of Earth's population doesn't celebrate Christmas," Warmth said firmly and then smiled sweetly, saying, "Behave now. During the Spring Festival, I'll give you a gift."

Not many days left.

Ye Feimo was at a loss for words; Warmth frowned as well, asking, "Then what about my Christmas gift"

"It's gone."

Warmth laughed. "You actually prepared a gift How can men be so stingy! Come on, where is the gift"

"It's gone."

"Too stingy." Warmth smiled and took out a small square box from her bag, handing it over to him with a warm smile. Ye Feimo raised his eyebrows, feeling much more at ease.

“What is this”

Warmth laughed and said, "Take a look and see if you like it." Although she wasn't entirely sure about Ye Feimo's taste, the brand was the same as hers, so her judgment should be reliable.

Holding back laughter, he opened the box. It was a Montblanc pen in blue-black, which happened to be one of his favorite styles and colors.

Seeing that he liked it, Warmth said with a smile, "I heard your pen broke So I got you this."

"Great taste."

Hmphing, Warmth replied, “Of course. My vision isn’t bad except when it comes to men.”

"You brat." Ye Feimo reached out to twist her ear; she laughed and hid behind him but was ultimately held in his arms. She straightened up boldly with a hand stretched out, asking, "My Christmas gift"l,” Yun said. “Wind’s isn’t picking up any signal either—only Wushuang has it sometimes and doesn’t other times. Anyway, as long as Mochen can locate us.”Wushuang copied the map to give them so they c...
