Chapter 1427 New Year, New Beginnings

Christmas and New Year holidays came and went. The Chua family once again visited from the Philippines. They brought a lot of local Filipino presents for the Jin and Lu twins. Of course, Little Jun, the cats, and even the puppies weren't forgotten either.

It was only because of Dom and his family that Iris and the others even bothered to celebrate Christmas in the first place as a big, happy family. Without the Chuas, they would rather spend more time running Christmas promotions for their respective businesses instead of taking holiday leave.

Even the busy Clover returned from France to celebrate with everyone before promptly leaving again after the holidays to continue developing Libert, formerly known as Sang Bleu, Iris's perfume company that Jin Liwei gifted her.

The babies had also grown up a lot by the time the New Year arrived. The Jin twins couldn't walk on their own yet, but they were already starting to stand up without anyone holding them up.

As for the Lu twins, they had become fatter yet again. Everyone else thought that they were adorable, and yet their own father disdained them for being little fatties.

"Just you wait, Mikhail and Dmitri," Lu Zihao told his sons in a grim, foreboding tone. "When you grow old enough, your father will train you hard. No children of mine will become lazy a** couch potatoes. Prepare yourselves. Enjoy your current easy baby lives while you can. It won't last long."

It was a good thing that Long Jinjing wasn't there to hear what her husband said to their children. Even if she heard it, she wouldn't understand anyway, because he spoke in Russian.

But if she did understand it, she would definitely go into full mama bear mode and fight him. Their children were still babies. Instead of pampering them, their father was already thinking of putting them through harsh training. What kind of father was he?

Not long after New Year, Lu Zihao and his family finally moved out of Dragon Palace Home #10 to their new home. It wasn't an exclusive residential village like Dragon Palace Homes, but Lu Zihao made sure that the security was fortified from any enemy.

Grandpa Lu also followed them and moved into his new mansion in the same neighbourhood. The old man was very reluctant about leaving his Jin great-grandbabies.

If it were up to him, they would all live together at Dragon Palace Home #10 until all the babies grew up. That was the ideal scenario for the old man.

Unfortunately, Lu Zihao and Long Jinjing insisted on moving out into their new home. Grandpa Lu could only sigh and choose to live closer to his blood-related great-grandbabies. It was an extremely difficult decision to make, but he understood the need for the couples to have their own privacy. Even he, an old man, needed his own s.p.a.ce, so he couldn't force everyone to live together under the same roof.

At first, the babies had no idea that this living arrangement was permanent.

The next day after Lu Zihao and his family moved out, both sets of Jin and Lu twins were inconsolable. They kept wailing at the top of their lungs, looking for their cousins.

Even Little Jun cried miserably and kept on asking his mother, Jiang Ying Yue, where Little Misha and Little Dima went. The poor kid thought that a bad person had stolen his beloved baby cousins. It was only when Jiang Ying Yue explained to her son that they moved out to their own home did Little Jun accepted the change with great reluctance.

The same situation occurred at Lu Zihao's new home. Little Misha and Little Dima almost couldn't breathe from crying too hard as they looked for their elder cousins.

Both Iris and Long Jinjing almost gave in. If it weren't for their husbands' firm rea.s.surances, they would have already returned to their previous living arrangement at Dragon Palace Home #10.

In the end, the children gradually got used to not living together. They also video-called every day.

The babies babbled to each other. The parents had no idea what their babies were saying. It didn't matter, though, whether they understood them or not. The most important thing was that the babies finally stopped crying every single day. The two couples felt finally relieved.

New Year heralded the fruition of many business projects planned since last year.

Jin Liwei worked hard as usual in running Jin Corporation. There might not be as many exciting projects compared to his wife's businesses, but he had always preferred reliability and consistency over bold risks.

After all, his number one priority right now was to earn money in order to let his wife and kids enjoy life without any worries. And of course, to pa.s.s on the company to the next generation, preferably to his own children depending on their performance and willingness to inherit the responsibility of running a multinational business empire.

Like Jin Liwei, Iris had also become much busier. She was more active again in overseeing her businesses and also working on her preparations for another s...o...b..z comeback after her maternity leave.

This didn't mean, however, that she was neglecting her babies. Not at all. With the help of everyone at home, she was able to spend quality time with her family while also finding the time to work on her businesses and s...o...b..z career.

Right now, Orchidia Beauty's new endors.e.m.e.nt campaign with the national shooting team launched in full force. frewebovel.cm

Ren Jiyu, the youngest athlete in the team, immediately became the hottest athlete of the year because of his special Orchidia Beauty endors.e.m.e.nt.

He and his teammates gained a new horde of fans. Ren Jiyu and some of the more attractive team members even received offers from various talent agencies.

Iris was in her music room playing the piano for the children, cat, and puppies when Dom handed her the phone, telling her that it was Jin Chonglin.

Jin Chonglin told her, "Ren Jiyu and his teammates want to sign with our LXC Studio."
