Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
No matter how hard she tried, Yun Mengs.h.i.+ couldn’t open the door and windows. Her phone had fallen in the living room during the scuffle. She looked around the bedroom. Luckily, it had a computer. She hurriedly sat down and switched it on. She began contacting her previous schoolmates, hoping that they would be able to help her.
However, her female schoolmates were generally not fond of her in school, so she searched for her male schoolmates. She believed that as long as she flirted with them, they would surely agree to help her out.
Hence, on New Year’s Eve, Yun Mengs.h.i.+ flirted with her previous schoolmates to her heart’s content. The provocative messages that she sent out were endless.
On the other hand, Yun Bixue and her family were cheerfully cooking dumplings. They watched the TV while eating the dumplings. There were a variety of flavors, and everyone ate casually. They even prepared a garlic and vinegar dipping sauce, working up their appet.i.tes even more.
Listening to the festive songs playing on the New Year programs was also delightful.
After dinner, the sky had turned dark. The family picked up some firecrackers and set them off outside. Each of them lit up a string of firecrackers. After setting off the firecrackers, the entire yard was filled with red shreds of firecracker paper. Looking at the sea of red, their hearts were filled with joy.
When it was Yun Bixue’s turn, she was rather afraid to light it up. Xie Limo gently laughed and a.s.sured her, “Don’t be afraid. Just light it.”
Yun Bixue was still scared. Because of the trauma they had experienced when they were young, even Yun Bilu’s gaze was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with anxiety.
Xie Limo noticed the two sisters’ anxious eyes, and could surmise something. He held onto Yun Bixue’s hand, then brought it to the side of the firecrackers. He flicked open the lighter and guided it towards the end of the firecracker wick. Seeing that it had been lit, Xie Limo wrapped his arms around Yun Bixue, and sprinted away from the firecrackers. Turning back to look at it, the firecracker had already began to crackle with ‘pop’ sounds.
Everyone applauded for Yun Bixue. No one was trying to tease her. They were all cheering for her.
Yun Bixue looked at her hand that was held by Xie Limo, and then at the firecracker that had been set off. That firecracker had been ignited by her. It was Xie Limo who helped her overcome the fear in her heart. At that moment, her heart soared.
She turned back and looked at Xie Limo. Under the illumination of the red lanterns, he appeared even more elegant, alluring and dazzling. It made her unable to s.h.i.+ft her gaze.
Xie Limo lowered his head and whispered at Yun Bixue’s ear, “Everyone’s watching! Quick, look! Your younger sister is setting the firecracker off. She is more courageous than you.”
Yun Bixue s.h.i.+fted her gaze out of embarra.s.sment. As she looked at her younger sister, she still felt that her face was scorching hot.
Xie Limo lowered his head and looked at Yun Bixue’s blus.h.i.+ng face. His gaze changed as his heart stirred. Her beauty was showcased only to him. The wonderful atmosphere surrounding the festivity was also endowed upon him by her. Because of her, his family had a reunion and welcomed the new year together.
After setting off all the firecrackers, they lit the big fireworks. Taking out the fireworks one by one, they arranged it in the s.p.a.cious yard. Ji Qiongxin suggested to position them in a heart shape to form a heart after they burst in the skies. It would be extremely gorgeous.
As Yun Bixue watched, her heart reveled. This was truly a teenage girl’s dream! Ever since she got together with Xie Limo, each of her dreams came true one by one.
Yun Bilu exclaimed excitedly as she jumped around. She commented that it would be great to have young children around as they would make it even livelier. She even gleefully requested for Xie Limo and Yun Bixue to quickly give birth to a child. She wanted to become an aunt!
“Elder Sister, you and Brother-in-law should give birth to a child soon. I would then become an aunt. Hahaha! Don’t worry, I will be the best aunt and give all the best things!”
Yun Bixue smiled warmly. She hadn’t had much thoughts when it came to children. She only thought to let nature take its course. If they were to have a child, she would love him, and allow him to have the most blissful family.
Xie Limo’s gaze changed, and he sighed quietly. He didn’t interrupt the two sister’s conversation.
