The first rays of morning sunlight pierced through the dense foliage and fell upon the shelter.

An Lan was the first to wake up from her sleep. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and turned her head to see Lu Fan lying on the bamboo bed not far away.

Sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on Lu Fan's face, making him appear softer.

An Lan looked at Lu Fan's peaceful sleeping face, and her cheeks flushed slightly.

She got up quietly, afraid of waking Lu Fan.

Happy New Year, Lu Fan!

An Lan suddenly shouted at Lu Fan.

Lu Fan was startled awake by the sudden sound, and he groggily opened his eyes.

Seeing An Lan standing by the bed with a smile on her face, she was still a little dazed for a moment.

"Happy New Year?"

He scratched his head, his mind racing. Based on the time before they arrived in the wilderness, today was indeed New Year's Eve.

"Happy New Year!" Lu Fan replied with a smile, his mood becoming exceptionally good as well.

In this wilderness, having Anlan as a companion to spend the New Year with doesn't seem so bad.

The two quickly made their bed and began preparing for this special New Year's Eve dinner.

They caught some plump fish on the beach and found some fresh wild vegetables in the forest.

Although the ingredients were simple, their faces were filled with expectant smiles.

"Today we must show off our skills and make this New Year's Eve dinner in the wilderness unique."

As Lu Fan skillfully prepared the fish, he smiled and said to An Lan.

An Lan helped wash the wild vegetables, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons with laughter: "Of course, I can't wait to try our cooking."

Just as they were busy with their work, a white figure suddenly darted in from outside, breaking the warm scene.

An Lan screamed in fright and instinctively hid behind Lu Fan.

"Don't be afraid, it's a white snake." Lu Fan quickly comforted An Lan. He looked at this uninvited guest, but he didn't feel much fear.

A white snake as thick as a thigh, with smooth, delicate scales all over its body and eyes the size of black beans.

Using his animal-friendly nature, he slowly approached the white snake and gently soothed it.

The white snake's initially wary gaze gradually softened. It stopped darting around and instead stayed quietly in place, letting Lu Fan stroke its head.

"This snake looks so docile." An Lan peeked out from behind Lu Fan, cautiously looking at the white snake, her fear gradually replaced by curiosity.

"Today is the Year of the Snake, touching it might bring good luck."

Lu Fan smiled and gently stroked the white snake, silently hoping that something good would happen.

The moment his hand touched the white snake, a dazzling light suddenly flashed, and the white snake transformed into three red envelopes radiating golden light, floating in the air.

At the same time, the familiar mechanical voice of the wilderness survival announcement rang in their ears.

[Wilderness Survival Announcement]

[Congratulations to Lu Fan for discovering the auspicious beast of the wilderness, triggering a 10,000x bonus!]

[Longevity Red Envelope*]

[Lucky Red Envelope*]

【Smooth Sailing Red Envelope*】

Red envelopes contain magical power and can bless a person's fortune for the whole year.

"This...this is too amazing!" An Lan was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth. She couldn't believe what was happening in front of her.

Lu Fan was also stunned by this sudden surprise. He was stunned for several seconds before he reacted, and a bright smile appeared on his face: "It seems that this year is really a lucky year!"

The live stream chat instantly exploded, with comments scrolling wildly like a tidal wave.

"Wow, what incredible luck!"

"Lu Dashen is simply blessed with incredible luck! I'm so envious!"

"A 10,000-fold return! I'm going to make a fortune!"

"Chinese viewers are so envious, they're eagerly waiting for the draw!"

Upon learning of this news, the Chinese government immediately took action.

They quickly set up a fair and impartial lottery system to ensure that every audience member had a chance to participate.

The news caused an uproar throughout China.

People gathered in front of their computers and mobile phones, hoping for a stroke of luck.

In the wilderness, Lu Fan and An Lan forgot about cooking and excitedly discussed the meaning of the three red envelopes.

“This ‘Live a long and healthy life’ wish is definitely for everyone to be healthy.” An Lan picked up one of the red envelopes, her eyes full of anticipation.

"'May wealth roll in,' that means I hope everyone can make a fortune." Lu Fan smiled and picked up another red envelope, jokingly saying, "Who knows, maybe we'll find some treasure in this wilderness this year."

"And this 'smooth sailing' wish is that our survival journey in the wilderness will go smoothly and that we won't encounter so many dangers again."

An Lan looked at the last red envelope, her eyes sparkling with hope.

The two were overjoyed by the unexpected joy, and their laughter echoed through the shelter.

Meanwhile, the lottery process in China officially began.

Countless people clicked their mice with excitement, awaiting their fate.

The lottery results came out quickly.

Wang Tao held the list of winners, ready to announce it to the audience.

"I won! I really won!"

"Damn, I got three! I'm so envious."

"Ah, I didn't get a single one."

An elderly woman was also lucky enough to win a red envelope.

Wearing her reading glasses, she looked at the winning notification on her phone and couldn't stop smiling: "This is truly the best New Year's gift!"

With the birth of each lucky individual, the entire nation of China was immersed in a sea of ​​joy.

People shared their joy on social media, and hashtags such as #WildernessSurvivalRedEnvelope# and #GoodLuckYearoftheSnake# quickly topped the trending search list.

After drawing the prizes, Wang Tao waved his hand gently and then said, "Here, on behalf of all our staff, we extend our sincerest New Year's Eve greetings to the people of the whole country."

Whether you are working hard in the workplace or starting your own business, may you reap abundant wealth and success."

The live stream chat was flooded with comments.

"Happy Year of the Snake."

"Happy Year of the Snake."

"Happy Year of the Snake."

...

After an afternoon in the wilderness, Lu Fan and An Lan finally finished their New Year's Eve dinner.

Although there were no lavish dishes or a lively Spring Festival Gala, they felt a unique kind of happiness.

They sat together, eating a simple but heartfelt meal, looking at the red envelopes in their hands, their hearts filled with hope for the future.

"I hope we can all get better and better in the new year." Lu Fan held up the coconut shell in his hand, which was filled with clear coconut juice, as if he were raising a glass of mellow wine.

"Getting better and better!" An Lan also raised the coconut shell and gently touched it with Lu Fan.

Their laughter echoed in the desolate night sky, as if announcing their happiness and contentment to the whole world.

Make a wish.

An Lan suggested that the two of them close their eyes and make a wish.

After making their wishes, the two looked at each other.

"What did you wish for?" Anlan asked curiously.

But then she regretted it: "Don't say it, it won't work if I say it."

Lu Fan smiled and said, "You have to say your wishes out loud, otherwise how will God hear them!"

"In the new year,

I hope the rivers and lakes are calm and peaceful, and I hope the mountains and rivers are safe and sound.

I hope all those who move forward will have a smooth journey, and I hope all those who face adversity will turn misfortune into good fortune.

I hope that lovers will eventually be united, and that those who are separated will eventually be reunited.

I hope that gentle people will be treated gently, and that kind people will meet kind people.

I hope everyone's eyes are like stars, and that everyone's heart is always at peace.

Whether poor or rich, whether lowly or noble, whether in darkness or encountering injustice.

I sincerely wish all those who deserve blessings to love themselves, and hope that you can love yourself ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times, countless times, and every moment, and be loved every moment.

Dear friends, Happy New Year!!
