Her voice was soft and crisp, and even though Duan Ye knew Luo Qingyuan was teasing him, he couldn't help but feel a tickle in his heart.

So he quickly chased after him.

Their hands were clasped tightly together once again.

"Honey, your hands are so cold, let me warm them up for you."

"I don't know where you learned such glib talk..."

"There's no need to learn this on purpose; it comes completely from the heart."

Luo Qingyuan smiled: "I'll reluctantly believe you."

When they got home, everyone was sitting in the large living room on the first floor watching the Spring Festival Gala.

Shen Niannian, wrapped in a blanket, huddled next to Duan Ze, watching with great interest.

Seeing Luo Qingyuan enter, Chen Niannian quickly waved her hand: "Qingyuan, come here quickly, come with me and watch it, it's very interesting."

Duan Ye glanced at it: "Isn't this a live replay?"

As Luo Qingyuan walked towards Shen Niannian's direction, she said, "There's another live stream tonight..."

Luo Qingyuan sat down next to Shen Niannian, and Duan Ye quickly went over and sat down as well.

The house has underfloor heating, but the front door is left open for ventilation, so two stoves are still burning.

Shen Niannian: "Let's watch it tonight. We were all so busy in Kyoto during the New Year's Eve period that we didn't have time to watch it. Now that we finally have some time, let's take a look back."

As she spoke, Shen Niannian looked at Duan Ze with great interest: "Aze, don't you think so?"

Duan Ze smiled and handed Shen Niannian a handful of sunflower seeds: "Yes, whatever you say is right."

Shen Niannian is very happy right now.

Duan Ye and Luo Qingyuan exchanged a glance and smiled slightly.

Luo Qingyuan used to worry that, given Shen Niannian's easily angered nature, who could tolerate her for a lifetime?

But now it seems...

Duan Ze really spoiled Shen Niannian like a child.

Luo Qingyuan was truly gratified.

Just then, Ding Yifen came out of the kitchen carrying fruit, glanced at the TV, and immediately became excited: "Isn't that Nanxing?"

Everyone's attention was instantly drawn back.

The TV host was still talking, and everyone hadn't even seen Nanxing yet, but the next second, the host said, "Please welcome our next singer, she will bring us the theme song of the TV series 'The Legend of Yunshang,' 'Love Sickness'!"

Ding Yifen's eyes lit up.

Over the years, she has treated Nanxing like a daughter. In the past, she would attend parent-teacher conferences together with Nanxing, and she would also pick her up from school together with Nanxing.

Although they can't be together now, they still have some mother-daughter bond.

So Ding Yifen sat down as well.

"This child is growing more and more beautiful."

As she spoke, Ding Yifen quickly picked up her phone and called her best friend, Xie Congjing, Nanxing's mother.

"Xiaojing, Nanxing is on TV, did you see her?"

Xie Congjing is currently backstage at the live broadcast site.

"What did you say? I can't hear you, wait a minute..."

Xie Congjing ran to the toilet before speaking to Ding Yifen.

Ding Yifen repeated it again, and Xie Congjing laughed happily: "Of course! How could our daughter be bad?"

"Oh right, I'm backstage at Nanxing's place right now. The Spring Festival Gala is broadcast live for two hours tonight, so I came with Nanxing..."

Ding Yifen: "Will Nanxing be on TV tonight?"

Xie Congjing smiled happily: "Yes! But Nanxing told me about this. Her career wasn't affected because of your second daughter-in-law. When you return to Kyoto, I'll personally visit you."

Ding Yifen smiled and said, "No need, no need. They are her second brother and sister-in-law. It's only right that they do small things."

The two chatted for a while and then hung up the phone.

On television, Nanxing still shone brightly under the flashlights. A pure white fishtail dress outlined her slender figure. Although her face was thinner, it had become more graceful and delicate.

Duan Ye can now calmly hold Luo Qingyuan while looking at Nanxing.

Luo Qingyuan glanced at Duan Ye and, seeing that he showed no emotional fluctuations, gradually felt relieved.

Ding Yifen looked at Nanxing and sighed, "The road in the entertainment industry is not easy. Qingyuan and Niannian, you two should help Nanxing out more and not let anyone bully her."

Duan Sheng: "Why are you worrying about this? Nanxing isn't the little star she used to be. She won't be bullied anymore."

Miao Suzhen: "This child is very good, and I hope she will be safe and sound in the future."

Duan Jiancheng, who was reading a book, took off his glasses upon hearing this and said, "These young people know what they're doing; you don't need to interfere."

"It's already afternoon, hurry up and get ready to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner."

Ding Yifen quickly stood up: "Then whoever goes out and buys a few fish, we need to have abundance every year..."

Duan Ye quickly raised his hand: "Mom, Qingyuan and I will go."

Chen Niannian hesitated for a moment, pouting, "I wanted to go too..."

Duan Ye couldn't wait to pull Luo Qingyuan outside: "Sister-in-law, you're pregnant, so you should stay home and rest."

After saying that, Duan Ye had already led Luo Qingyuan out the door.

Duan Ze smiled and ruffled her hair: "If you want to go for a walk, I'll take you."

Shen Niannian's eyes lit up immediately: "Is it okay?"

Ding Yifen smiled and said, "Why not? The market is very lively today. You should go too, buy some braised food and stuff to eat as snacks while we stay up tonight."

Shen Niannian smiled happily: "Thank you, Mom. I'll go out for a walk for a bit and come back to help you!"

Ding Yifen: "No rush, take your time playing."

So, Duan Ze took the incredibly excited Shen Niannian with him and went out.
