The exchange program between the eight universities finally concluded before the Spring Festival.

Although not all planets in the interstellar world celebrate the Spring Festival, every planet has its own festival where families reunite.

Although the festivals have different names and are not held on the same day, the entire intergalactic world legally sets those festivals within the same month.

Therefore, apart from the statutory holidays set by the regulations of each individual planet, January is also a public holiday for all workers in the entire intergalactic world.

It's for everyone to go home and celebrate the holidays.

So, as soon as Mingmei stepped off the starship, she received news that her relatives and friends living in interstellar space had all returned to Hualan Star, including Liu Liu's godfather and the mainframe... oh, judging from her outfit today, she should call her "godmother".

"Meimei, tell me, what's going on with this picture?"

As soon as she entered the house, Mingmei felt as if she had been subjected to a three-way interrogation. Her second brother pressed her down on a single sofa in the living room, with her parents sitting on a double sofa next to her, and her godfather staring straight at her from across the room.

Mingmei: ...

Terrifying! (?ó﹏ò?)

Her two uncles were hiding in a corner, holding coffee and playing with her sister-in-law's cat. When they noticed her gaze, they turned around and smiled at her.

And then there was no further action.

This "good luck to you" attitude made Mingmei afraid of what was about to happen.

Sure enough, the next second, she saw her godfather Liu Liu use his personal computer to project a photo of her and Mu Chen kissing under the moon in the game onto the wall!

"Oh my god!"

Such a high-definition picture, without any embellishment, and full of detail, even made the older brother and sister-in-law, who were in the semi-open kitchen next to the living room, unable to resist peeking out.

"Ouch~"

Her sister-in-law, Mei Pu, was the most unable to hide her feelings. Mingmei was so embarrassed by the fact that she was the one in the picture that she was actually the one who made the mistake that she was digging her toes into the ground, when she heard her sister-in-law say something from the kitchen—

"How romantic! This picture is so beautiful and romantic no matter how many times I look at it! Honey, shall we find such a beautiful place to travel to next year?"

"Okay~ Let's take some kissing photos too~"

The whole family: "..."

Mingmei: "..."

Is this the difference between being married and not being married?

But wait a minute!

Mingmei suddenly realized something was off about what her sister-in-law was saying.

What does "no matter how many times you watch it" mean?

"Where did this picture come from?" Mingmei asked, turning directly to her second sister-in-law. Seeing that the other woman was about to sneak away again, Mingmei called out, "Second sister-in-law?"

"I didn't screenshot this! I swear! If I did, your second brother won't be able to have children!"

Her colleague took the screenshot, so you can't blame her, right?

Mei Qiu, suddenly called upon: ? ? ?

Meiqiu looked at Chesil with a blank expression, blinked, and asked uncertainly, "Has the Empire already legalized male reproduction?"

Chesil: "..."

Mingmei: "..."

[Gui Gui, did you do this?]

Mingmei quietly asked Guigui, who had recently returned from her studies, backstage.

[Don't make false accusations! I was already at the mainframe then!] Ghost wasn't about to let this slide. [You were the one who got caught kissing, and you're blaming others for seeing it?]

[It's in the game! How would I know?]

[That game isn't some lawless place, host, you're such a jerk!]

Mingmei: ...

Frustrated, Mingmei turned her attention back to reality, glancing again at her mother sitting to the side, drinking tea and being fed by her father.

Watching the couple, one eating and the other feeding, Mingmei felt envious.

"Meimei".

Just when she thought her mother would let her off the hook, her mother suddenly spoke up.

"ah?"

"Didn't I tell you... not to do anything that creates negative distance?"

After finishing her tea, she finally spoke.

"I didn't..." Mingmei blushed halfway through her sentence, "Mom, do you mean that even a negative distance above the neck is not acceptable?"

"Of course not!" Before her mother could answer, her godfather jumped in, "You're still young! You can't let bad men fool you!"

"Godfather, I'm at least an eighty-year-old man, okay? Dating isn't that serious, is it?"

Isn't Liu Liu being a bit too protective of her, treating her like a child?

"Bullshit! You've been lying in a medical pod for over sixty years. You have no experience whatsoever, and you're still in school. What kind of old-age youth are you? Do you need to date now? You should focus on your studies and not let the temptations of the world blind you! And men are even less suitable!"

Besides, isn't it your sixty-year-old nephew who needs to date? That's what you call an "older single"!

The third generation of the Ming family, who had no presence whatsoever, was Ming Song, the eldest son of the eldest brother Ming Qi. As soon as his aunt entered the family, he followed the example of his two great-uncles, sitting in an inconspicuous corner with a book in hand, and became invisible.

As a result, he was still betrayed by his godfather.

He's sixty years old, is that old?

His aunt doesn't want to date, so he needs to date?

"By the way, didn't Mingsong say he had a girl he liked and wanted to bring her back this year?"

When Mingmei noticed that the topic had suddenly shifted to Mingsong, she decided to help everyone change the subject.

Ming, the transparent man, with no human rights, a shield, Song: ? ? ? ?

"No... I was rejected."

Seeing the whole family staring intently at him, Mingsong felt a little uncomfortable and stammered about his failed pursuit of love.

"Why? Son, you're not ugly, and you have a good job, so why were you rejected?"
