Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

This was Guo Miao’s second New Year since she transmigrated. Looking at the lively scene in the room, she felt a little bitter.

The room was filled with the fragrance of food. Everyone was busy going in and out of the room. The New Year’s Eve party was being streamed on television, and the family was reunited.

Lu Hai and Guo Fu sped up their cooking. Everyone sat down at the dining table at 7:30 p.m.

The table was filled with Guo Miao and Lu Ning’s favorite dishes, as well as exquisite desserts and freshly squeezed fruit juice.

“There’s so much delicious food!” Xuxu shouted.

Guo Fu’s family had always spent the Chinese New Year with them, so there had never been so many dishes.

“Thank you, Mommy!” Xuxu said.

Lu Xi smiled embarrassedly. “Your father cooked all these meals. There’s no need to thank me.”

“If it weren’t for Mommy marrying Dad, we wouldn’t have so many people spending the New Year together!” Xuxu smiled.

Guo Miao also raised her glass and toasted Lu Xi. “Thank you, Auntie. I’m really happy that you’re willing to be our mother.”

Guo Miao still wasn’t used to calling Lu Xi ‘Mommy’. Xuxu was still young and hadn’t seen his mother before, so he called Lu Xi ‘Mommy’.

Lu Xi took out the red packet from her pocket and handed it to Guo Miao and Xuxu. “i’ll give this to you in advance. I won’t have to wait until New Year’s Eve.

Although 1 don’t have much money, this is my token of appreciation.”

Lu Xi took two handmade sweaters from the side.

In this era, most people were used to buying clothes. The cost and time spent to make a piece of clothing by hand was very high. Most people would not make their own clothes anymore.

Guo Miao also brought the bags she had brought from the capital and distributed the gifts to everyone.

She gave Lu Ning a gemstone necklace, Lu Xi a jade bracelet, Guo Fu and Lu Hai two belts, and Xuxu a game console.

Guo Fu was a little confused when he saw the gifts that Guo Miao had brought.

Although he didn’t know the brands of these things, the jewelry Guo Miao gave Lu Ning and Lu Xi was very expensive. The quality of the jewelry looked top-notch. The total value of these things was probably tens of thousands of dollars.

Lu Xi was also in a difficult position. She had been in the jade business before, and this bracelet was the best pink jade which was worth at least 10,000 yuan.

“This is too expensive. 1 can’t accept it.” Lu Xi pushed the box back.

Guo Miao shook her head and pushed the box back. “Don’t worry, 1 still have some income from working at the research institute. It’s already the new year and 1 want to give you some gifts. Don’t worry, Auntie.”

Lu Xi didn’t refuse anymore but planned to give Guo Miao some other gifts later.

After everyone distributed the gifts, they started to eat. Guo Miao then noticed Tong Pei’s message on her phone.

[Are you home?]

[We’re here.] Guo Miao replied.

[1’11 be going to Haicheng on New Year’s Eve. See you then.] Tong Pei replied instantly.

[Why did you especially inform me? Aren’t you going to surprise me?] Guo Miao replied with a smile.

[Hmm? Should i withdraw from my trip now?]

At this moment in Beijing, Tong Pei held his phone and revealed a faint smile.

Tong Yao looked at Tong Pei as if he was looking at a ghost.

A girl in a princess dress tugged at Tong Yao’s sleeve. “Cousin, what’s wrong with Uncle? Why is he acting like he’s crazy recently?”

“I’m not crazy, I’m in love.” Tong Yao shook his head and sighed.

Was this what a man in love was like? Even at a family banquet, he didn’t put down his phone and smiled like a fool.

“The truth is scary. I never thought that Fifth Uncle could actually fall in love.” The little girl shook her head.

This little girl was about 12 or 13 years old. Her name was Tong Ning, and she was a granddaughter of the Tong family. She was in Country K all year round and would only come back to China during the New Year.

“Previously, the elders were still worried about Fifth Uncle’s marriage. Now, it seems that there’s no need to worry at all. Fifth Uncle seems to have solved the problem himself.”

Tong Ning shook her head. “But a man in love is so flirtatious. I’ve never seen Fifth Uncle smile so happily.”

“Xiaowu, what are you looking at on your phone? Why are you so happy?” a loud female voice asked.

Tong Pei looked at that person. “It’s nothing, Mom..”
