Chapter 466: Happy New Year~

Yes, considering Father Lord is a first-time offender, let's allow him to join us for the New Year's Eve dinner, okay?

Ye Qingran felt stifled.

The children were so fond of Fu Hanxiu, making her quite jealous.

However, she never intended to turn him away, especially since today is New Year's Eve.

Originally, if Fu Hanxiu hadn't come looking for them, it would have been fine, but since he came, there's no reason not to let him spend the New Year with the children.

She just needed an excuse.

Cough, who doesn't have a little tsundere?

She feigned calmness and said, "Do as you wish!"

Upon hearing Ye Qingran say that, Xiao Chen and Xiao Hu's eyes lit up.

Dad, did you hear that? Mom said you can join us for New Year's Eve dinner tonight!

Ye Qingran glared, wondering when she had said that.

She merely allowed him to come in!

Her gaze instinctively went to Fu Hanxiu, only to see him staring intently at her; she unnaturally looked away, her heart rate quickening.

Sigh, no matter how she denies it, she has feelings for him; she's done for!

The new moon was like a hook, the myriad stars like water.

Firecrackers crackled, fireworks shone like brocade.

Ye Qingran raised her head to gaze at the sky, feeling somewhat emotional.

Spring came and went, autumn arrived, and before she knew it, another year had passed.

In her previous life, she almost always spent New Year's alone; after coming to this world, she met many people, so she wasn't so lonely.

This year, she not only found her own children, met the man she loved, and gained a complete family.

Her two sons were handsome and clever, and the man she loved was their father.

Everything was so wonderful.

This was something she had never dared to hope for.

Truly nice.

The dishes are all served!

Han Xing's cheerful voice pulled Ye Qingran's thoughts back.

Everyone had already taken their seats; the two children sat between the parents, Ye Qingran and Fu Hanxiu were separated by two seats. Fu Hanxiu had Fu San beside him, while Ye Qingran had Han Xing Leng Yue and Bai Bing beside her.

Everyone sat together in harmony, and Ye Qingran brought out the Peach Blossom Brew she had treasured for years to celebrate this special festival.

Xing Er, Yue Er, Bing Er, this is your New Year's gift.

Ye Qingran handed each of the three gifts to them respectively.

After thanking her, they opened the gifts and were all delighted.

The young lady prepares gifts for them every New Year's Eve, each thoughtfully chosen, and each time they feel a great surprise.

Mom, do we have one?

You certainly do!

The gift Ye Qingran prepared for the two children was especially thoughtful: two pieces of clothing she had sewn herself.

The clothing was tiger-themed, looking cute and exquisite.

Xiao Hu and Xiao Chen eagerly put them on, instantly turning into cute little tigers, absolutely adorable!

Awoo~

They even deliberately made tiger motions, utterly melting everyone's hearts.

Even Xiao Huihui and Xiao Bai put on new clothes, looking particularly interesting.

Miss Ye, do I have one?

Fu San asked shamelessly.

Ye Qingran raised her eyebrows. She certainly hadn't prepared a gift for Fu San, but since everyone was asking for one during the New Year, she naturally wouldn't refuse.

Here, the leftover from last time's pill refinement—take it.

Saying that, she produced a pill and handed it to Fu San.

Fu San was overjoyed; upon looking, it turned out to be a Nine-grade Elixir.

Fu San's eyes widened.

Although he followed Your Majesty and had seen Nine-grade Elixirs before, they are extremely rare; he never expected Ye Qingran to give him such a gift directly.

Thank you, Miss Ye; wishing you a fresh New Year aura and ever-increasing beauty!

Ye Qingran smiled faintly and countered, "Do you think I'm not beautiful enough?"

That left Fu San speechless.

Everyone burst into laughter.

Fu Hanxiu naturally couldn't openly ask for a gift like Fu San did, but his gaze was already quite obvious.

However, Ye Qingran glared at him, saying, "Don't look; there's none for you!"

Fu Hanxiu: "......"

It was heartbreaking.

Even Fu San got one, but he didn't!

He glared fiercely at Fu San.

Mom, this is my gift for you.

Xiao Hu pulled out a folded piece of paper from his pocket; upon unfolding it, the drawing's content seemed somewhat familiar.

Ye Qingran remembered that Xiao Hu used to draw the same picture, showing their family of four; back then Xiao Hu didn't know his father was Fu Hanxiu, so the father he drew had no face.

But this picture before her eyes had not only greatly improved in skill, the father had changed from a faceless man into a handsome Emperor Sovereign.

A family of four, all together.

"I hope our family of four can always stay together."

Xiao Hu spoke his innermost beautiful wish in a tender child's voice.

Ye Qingran's heart stirred; she embraced Xiao Hu, stroked his head, and said in a voice as gentle as water, "We will be together."

Upon hearing those words, the one most moved was Fu Hanxiu.

By saying that, did Ye Qingran mean she had already forgiven him?

Xiao Chen, not to be outdone, produced the program he had prepared earlier.

"Mother, I will perform a program for you."

Ye Qingran looked at Xiao Chen with great anticipation, saying, "Mother, I am really looking forward to it!"

Her words caused Xiao Chen to involuntarily reveal a mysterious smile.
