Spoiled By the Young Master After Reborn In the 80s-Chapter 820: Eight hundred and eighteen, New Year’s Eve

With the departure of a hundred students, all activities came to an end.

At this moment, it was already 11:45 PM, only fifteen minutes away from the start of the new year.

The soldiers brought out the prepared firework cannons and placed them on the training ground. Once the time came, they would light them up to welcome the arrival of the new year.

After completing all the preparation work, there were only three minutes left.

People with watches began to time the countdown.

Time was slipping away second by second, and someone started counting down loudly, "Ten, nine, eight..."

"Seven, six, five..." Hearing this, the others also started to join in the countdown in unison. The playground was filled with everyone’s voices calling out the time.

"Four, three, two, one, zero!"

"Bang, bang, bang!" As everyone reached zero, all the firework cannons were simultaneously lit by the soldiers.

The splendid fireworks burst forth in the night sky, unfolding like dazzling flowery streams against the black backdrop, a multitude of purples and thousands of reds, blindingly beautiful.

"Shushu, Happy New Year!" Lu Hanmo lowered his head, smiling as he gazed at Luo Shu. His slender fingers moved, and a dewy red rose appeared in his hand. "A single rose represents love; in love, you are my only one." He had seen this in a book during his last visit to Langxi Country. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Luo Shu accepted the rose with a surprised face, "I like it!" She had not expected Hanmo to know these things; these were all the tricks little brothers used to flirt with girls in later generations.

Lu Hanmo curved his lips in a smile, gripping Luo Shu’s hand a little tighter, and together they looked up at the dazzling fireworks in the sky. "Every year from now on, I will hold your hand and watch the fireworks with you." Now that they both possessed endless life, he would have ample time to stay by Shushu’s side and walk with her forever.

"Okay!" Luo Shu leaned her head gently on Lu Hanmo’s shoulder, watching the continuous bloom of fireworks in the sky, lifting a brilliant and happy smile. The happiest thing in her life was having his company.

Mo Shaoze glanced at Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo beside him, then stretched his arm around Shen Anning’s waist, "Wife, I think these fireworks are not as beautiful as you."

"Get lost!" Shen Anning glared at Mo Shaoze coyly and removed his arm from her waist. Her skin wasn’t as thick as his, and she couldn’t comfortably make such intimate gestures in front of so many people.

"Wife!" Mo Shaoze leaned his head on Shen Anning’s shoulder, with a hint of coquettishness in his voice.

Shen Anning stretched out her hand and pinched hard on the soft flesh around Mo Shaoze’s waist.

"Hisss! Ouch! Wife, let go, it hurts... it hurts!" Mo Shaoze cried out with a grimace.

Seeing people around them looking over, Shen Anning’s face flushed red, and she glared fiercely at Mo Shaoze before retracting her hand, "Don’t get near me again."

"You are my wife, if I don’t get close to you, who do I get close to?" Mo Shaoze teasingly blinked at Shen Anning.

Shen Anning rolled her eyes speechlessly, "I want a refund!"

"Goods once sold are not refundable or exchangeable. Moreover, since you’ve already used it, it definitely cannot be returned," Mo Shaoze said with a wicked smile.

"Mo Shaoze!" Shen Anning, her face red with both embarrassment and annoyance, glared at Mo Shaoze. This man really had no shame, spouting such nonsense in public!

"Sigh! What would my dear wife have me do?" Mo Shaoze immediately put on an obedient look. He knows he has to seize a good moment and stop; otherwise, if he really angers Ningning, he’ll have to go back home and kneel on a washboard.

"Don’t talk to me from now on, and also keep your distance from me, or I’ll bite you," Shen Anning warned Mo Shaoze with a stare.

Mo Shaoze put his own arm in front of Shen Anning, "Go ahead and bite, I won’t speak if that’s what you want, but keeping a distance is not okay. You are my wife, and I must stay close to protect you at all times."

"Shameless!" Shen Anning turned her head away, ignoring Mo Shaoze, but a sweet smile inadvertently spilled from the corners of her lips.

Ling Tianyu did not go back to school with everyone else but returned to the Ling Family home instead.

Once back at the Ling home, he locked himself in his room.

Mother Ling, upon hearing the news of Ling Tianyu’s return, immediately went to his residence, "Tianyu, it’s Mom, please open the door." Wasn’t he supposed to go to the Guard to challenge Lu Hanmo? Why did he come back so early?

Seeing no response, Mother Ling raised her hand and knocked on the door, "Tianyu, has something happened to you? Please open the door and tell Mom, I’ll help you solve it." This child must have had something happen to him; otherwise, he wouldn’t be like this.

But no matter how she knocked or called out, there was always no movement inside the room. This made Mother Ling’s heart grow more and more anxious.

"Tianyu, please open the door, don’t scare Mom, okay?"

Mother Ling paced anxiously outside the door, finally deciding to go find Old Master Ling. Tianyu always listens to him.

Old Master Ling, upon receiving the news, hurried over as well. Tianyu was his most beloved grandson, also the most talented amongst the younger generation of the family.

He approached softly and knocked on the door, "Tianyu, it’s Grandpa, please open the door."

Inside the room, there was still not a stir.

Old Master Ling frowned slightly and was about to speak again when the door suddenly opened with a "click!".

"I’ll go in and take a look first," Old Master Ling said to Mother Ling. He knew his grandson the best. Whatever had happened this time, it must have been hard for him to accept.

Mother Ling gave the room a worried glance and nodded, "Alright!" Although she really wanted to know what happened, she couldn’t disobey what Old Master Ling said.

Old Master Ling walked into the room and closed the door behind him.

He saw Ling Tianyu sitting on the sofa, his face dejected, staring blankly ahead, lost in thought.

Old Master Ling sat down next to Ling Tianyu, "What happened?"

Upon hearing the words, the lifeless eyes of Ling Tianyu slowly regained focus, and he looked at the ground, "I lost! I lost miserably!" From a young age, he had always had a smooth sailing, never losing against family members in battle. This time, he truly felt devastated.

"Is that why you locked yourself up?" Disappointment flickered across Old Master Ling’s face; he didn’t expect him to be so fragile under defeat. But anyone capable of defeating Tianyu must also undoubtedly be an Ancient Martial Artist.

Ling Tianyu looked up at Old Master Ling, his face full of defeat, "Grandpa, in front of a big crowd, I was slapped away twice by two people, in the same way." It was something he found very difficult to talk about.

"By two people? Who are they?" Old Master Ling was taken aback and asked with surprise. Since when did Yan Country have so many strong figures?
