Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Jin Nian blinked and extended her hand toward Lu An. Then lets hug, she said.

Although Lu An retorted with, Whats there to hug? he still pulled Jin Nian into his arms, wearing a concerned expression. Why didnt you tell me about this?

Jin Nians voice was gentle as she replied, Its not something worth mentioning.

Lu An sighed. 1 should have beaten up those guys back then. I feel like such an idiot for not doing it sooner.

Jin Nian responded, You see, you also resort to violence, so why bother?

Lu An quipped, Arent you satisfied with violence?

After a moment of contemplation, Jin Nian chuckled brightly, Actually, its quite satisfying!

There was more excitement to come.

Some people seemed eager to make up for the past and went all out to make Jin Nian beg for mercy during the evening.

Knowing that Jin Nian appreciated gentleness, Lu An enveloped her in a delicate tenderness. He acted like a devoted follower, absorbing her essence.

The day after tomorrow was New Years Eve.

The young couple stayed at home and adorned their house to infuse it with a festive atmosphere.

Jin Nian had already purchased couplets and lanterns online. She eagerly antic.i.p.ated the New Year, relis.h.i.+ng the lively ambiance. As soon as they adorned their home with these red decorations, it instantly exuded a festive atmosphere.

For those areas that were out of Jin Nians reach, she a.s.signed the task to Lu An. Put these window decorations a bit higher, at your eye level.

However, she occasionally teased Lu An for not being as agile as her. You cant even stick it on straight! Just leave, 111 show you how its done!

During such moments, Lu An would play along, applauding Jin Nian. Then, he would cross his arms and lazily lean against the doorframe, watching Jin Nian bustling about.

His lips involuntarily curled into a smile, a mix of audacity and tender affection.

D*mn, marriage felt so wonderful!

To make their New Year celebration even livelier, Lu An intentionally invited Teacher Tan and Old Jin to their villa for the New Years Eve dinner.

Teacher Tan didnt need to lift a finger. She simply relaxed in the living room with heated floors, snacking on sunflower seeds in her short-sleeved s.h.i.+rt.

Old Jin roamed around the villa, even venturing into Jin Nian and Lu Ans bedroom.

Upon seeing a painting of a figures back, Old Jin chuckled, This is still you.

What? Jin Nian was taken aback. Is that me?

Old Jin remained composed. You may not recognize your own back, but I certainly can! Come, lets explore other places.

This was a painting that had caught Jin Nians eye the moment she arrived at the villa. There were many similar paintings upstairs. Previously, Jin Nian had never a.s.sociated these paintings subjects with herself.

As they reached a corner on the stairs, Lu An appeared before them. Jin Nian pulled him upstairs. She examined the tattoo on his arm and then gestured towards the bedroom. Is your tattoo and the figure in the painting both me?

With playful calmness, Lu An teased, Cant you even recognize your own back?

I cant see my own back, how would 1 recognize it?!

Haha, well, now you know.

With that said, Lu An turned and walked away, intending to accompany his father-in-law.

Lu An, you better explain yourself! Jin Nian quickly followed after him.

Some things were hard to understand.

Of course, there were things that were even harder to explain.

Old Jin had finished his tour of the study, even testing some of the high-tech gadgets inside. His face radiated admiration and approval. With his son-in-laws a.s.sistance, he even explored the naked-eye 3D technology, unable to contain his awe at the rapid advancements in technology.

Jin Nian hadnt spent much time in the study before, so she was feeling a bit bored and decided to rummage around. Eventually, she stumbled upon a slightly worn-out book on the bookshelf. The very book she had given Lu An on his eighteenth birthday.

Jin Nian had always a.s.sumed that Lu An had lost The Little Prince.

Surprisingly, the new book she had gifted him had become quite tattered.

Jin Nian was speechless, feeling that Lu An had treated her gift this way. The book was now in such a sorry state.

D*mn, she had even been brainstorming what gift to give this guy who didnt seem to cherish his gifts on New Years Day.

She shouldve just gifted this guy, who didnt appreciate gifts, a breath of air.

Jin Nian casually flipped through the book until she reached the last page. There, she found Lu Ans hastily written but resolute words, Jin Nian, you fool, when will you finally turn around and notice me?

There was no date on it, leaving Jin Nian clueless about when Lu An had penned those words, but it was undoubtedly his handwriting.

She took the book and dashed straight to Lu An. What do you mean by this? You even called me a fool! Do you want to die?

With a flick of his finger, Lu An lightly tapped Jin Nians forehead..
