Ning Jing excitedly ran out with the children, eagerly searching everywhere for firecrackers.
But they discovered that Fu Hongxing had lit a bonfire in the middle of the yard sometime during the night.
Beside him were sections of bamboo that he had cut down. Upon seeing the bamboo, Tie Dan cheered.
He stepped forward, picked up a piece of bamboo, and threw it into the fire.
Xiuhua and Xiuchun did the same thing, and even Siya followed suit by throwing the bamboo.
In an instant, sparks flew everywhere.
Ning Jing was stunned by what she saw.
Is this what setting off firecrackers is like?
It seems completely different from what she remembered!
Of course, in her world, fireworks were set off more often.
The sky was filled with all kinds of fireworks, which were fleeting but exceptionally beautiful.
Ning Jing was still immersed in the beautiful fireworks of her past world when she was startled awake by the loud "bang... bang bang..." explosions.
The bamboo pieces that the children had thrown into the fire began to crack and pop as the temperature rose, just like firecrackers.
Upon hearing the sound, the children squealed with delight, their faces beaming with joy.
Ning Jing was infected by their joy and, emboldened, picked up a piece of bamboo and threw it in.
Sure enough, a short while later, a cracking sound was heard.
They threw it in, it exploded, they threw it in again, and the kids kept doing it.
The bonfire burned brightly, swaying in the night wind, casting a rosy glow on the children's and Ning Jing's faces.
Fu Hongxing looked over and gazed at Ning Jing's beautiful face with gentle eyes, as if she were intoxicated.
Taking advantage of everyone's inattention, he quietly walked behind Ning Jing, bent down and whispered in her ear, "Happy New Year!"
Suddenly, Fu Hongxing's voice rang in Ning Jing's ears. She turned around abruptly, excitedly wanting to offer him the same blessing: "Happy New Year!"
But the moment he turned his head, Fu Hongxing grabbed the back of his head and kissed him.
Ning Jing felt a sudden boom in her head, as if fireworks were exploding inside.
Having successfully stolen the fragrance, Fu Hongxing immediately stood up straight.
After all, her younger siblings were still gathered around the fire, and she could see their every move with just a turn of her head.
Coming to her senses, Ning Jing glanced at the little ones. Luckily, they were completely absorbed by the firecrackers; otherwise, they would have been utterly humiliated.
Thinking of this, Ning Jing noticed that the children weren't looking back, so she quietly reached out and pinched Fu Hongxing's waist hard.
However, people tend to wear more layers in winter.
What's more, Fu Hongxing is wearing the new cotton coat that Ning Jing made for him today!
To keep Fu Hongxing warm, Ning Jing stuffed an extra half pound of cotton into the cotton coat.
When you pinch it, it's soft and fluffy; you can tell it's cotton.
Ning Jing regretted it; she shouldn't have made such a thick one for this guy.
He deserved to freeze to death. Since she failed to pinch him, Ning Jing could only glare angrily at Fu Hongxing.
Unexpectedly, Fu Hongxing grabbed Ning Jing's outstretched hand and held it tightly.
If the children turned around, they would definitely see that Fu Hongxing was holding her hand in his arms and covering it.
Ning Jing subconsciously tried to pull her hand away, but unexpectedly, Fu Hongxing remained calm and composed, and she couldn't budge him at all.
Moreover, he took her hand, bent down, and kissed the back of her hand.
After kissing him, he said in a serious tone, "Why are your hands so cold? Let me warm them up for you."
If Ning Jing could kick this thug away, she definitely would.
