Chapter 185 New Year's Eve



"As a child, I always loved to count on my fingers in silence."

"I really hope the sunrise comes soon!"

"As adults, we're often forced to say we have no choice but to accept it."

"We can't find an excuse to stop here."

"You and I are used to coming and going like frequent travelers."

"The letter sent to the sky failed to receive a timely reply."

"Wait a little longer and we'll return to base, just like before~~"

As a child, my young heart was always filled with eager anticipation of growing up.

Back then, we naively believed...

When I grow up, I can get rid of the familiar yet somewhat restrictive environment of my hometown and escape my mother's seemingly endless nagging.

They can also earn money through their own efforts and dispose of their wealth as they please.

In our imagined future, countless delicious snacks await us to enjoy.

There's also endless time to immerse yourself in your beloved game world.

Time flies.

The vast majority of people eventually realize the dream they longed for most as children.

Indeed, we left our hometown as we had wished, and Mom's nagging gradually faded away.

We started spending the money we had worked so hard to earn, buying the snacks we had always dreamed of, and enjoying all kinds of games.

However……

Once all of this becomes a reality, calm down and think it over carefully.

Do you truly feel happy deep down?

Alone in that cold, cramped rented room.

Day after day, they chew on disgusting, cheap takeout food.

The snacks I used to love so much now leave me with mouth ulcers.

Although games can be played all night long, they leave one feeling increasingly exhausted both physically and mentally.

Is this what I've always dreamed of growing up to be like?

Even though I'm living a dreamlike life that feels like paradise, why do smiles on my face have become so rare?

As I grew up, that longing for home surged into my heart like a tide.

We long to go home and eat a meal cooked by our mothers.

However, the harsh reality is that even with this strong desire in his heart, he couldn't even find a suitable excuse to go home.

On the surface, they appear free and unrestrained, but in reality, they are tightly wrapped by the heavy pressures of life and unable to break free.

"We'll always go around in circles~ around in circles~"

"Even after traveling thousands of miles, I still look towards my homecoming."

"Riding the wind, longing blows, drifting through the night sky~"

"I'll catch a shooting star as a gift, wishing you happiness~"

"The thread in my hand, winding and winding~ winding and winding~"

"After thousands of days and nights of wandering, I still yearn for my way home."

"The swallows' migration route back to their nests involves countless participants."

"Let's get ready to celebrate when the fireworks illuminate the night sky~~~"

"The mind has a place to dwell..."

As the song gradually came to an end.

The song touched the hearts of those who were already moved to tears.

Those who are unable to return home for the Spring Festival due to various reasons.

At this moment, he stands alone in the crowd.

Just like a "red kite" drifting in the air, it falls to the ground with a lonely and longing expression.

Touched by Wen He's warm and healing voice...

His heart, which had been wandering far away for so long, seemed to have crossed thousands of mountains and rivers, and was closely connected with his family far away.

It created a strong resonance, as if hearts were connected.

It was as if through this song, he could truly feel the warm embrace of his loved ones.

And so Wen He's New Year's Eve concert in Beijing came to an end.

After the final part of the performance...

Wen He coughed violently as always.

After he recovered, Wen He and Cheng Yudie immediately went to the airport and flew back to Guangzhou almost without stopping.

Because tonight is New Year's Eve.

They still wanted to go home and celebrate the New Year with their friends.

【22:30】

This is the time they arrived back in Guangzhou after landing.

It's quite a journey back from the airport, but the good news is...

"Hey! Big star, you're back!"

Gao Chongting picked up Wen He from the airport in his newly bought car.

"Brother, Sister Yudie, Happy New Year!" Wen Ze was overjoyed, sitting in the passenger seat.

Recently, Wen He and Cheng Yudie have been holding concerts frequently, and it's basically just the two of them at home, making their relationship even closer.

Happy New Year! This is a red envelope for you.

Wen He was also very happy, her face beaming with a blissful smile, and she gave her younger brother Wen Ze a red envelope.

Wen Ze was completely dumbfounded when he saw the enormous red envelope that was bulging as big as it could possibly be.

He was so excited that his face turned completely red, and his voice trembled as he spoke: "This...this is really for me?"

"Of course, take it." Wen He handed it over directly.

"Thank you, brother! You really are the best brother in the world! I love you to death!" Wen Ze jumped up and down excitedly.

"Don't you dare break my new car, you little brat. Besides, it's not safe for you to have so much money. Give it to your godfather for safekeeping."

As they were talking, Gao Chongting reached out to snatch Wen Ze's red envelope.

Wen He and Cheng Yudie were both slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

Both of them were somewhat surprised.

"No, we haven't been gone for long. Has your relationship already evolved to this stage?" Cheng Yudie was quite shocked.

"Yeah, haha, I don't plan to get married in this lifetime, but I still want a son, so this is perfect," Gao Chongting said with a smile.

"Wen Ze, you agreed?" Wen He asked curiously.

"Yeah, Uncle Gao is a really nice guy. I think he'd be a good godfather to me, hehe." Wen Ze scratched his head sheepishly.

"What kind of behavior is this! If you acknowledge him as your godfather, wouldn't Gao Chongting be a super senior to me?"

Wen He immediately became anxious, but it was all an act.

“I know you’re in a hurry, but don’t rush. Let’s talk things out. You call me Dad, and I’ll call you Brother.”

Gao Chongting quickly calmed Wen He down.

"What are you saying! What kind of talk is this! I want to see my lawyer!" It seems that her emotions have not been calmed down.

"I am your lawyer."

"Yes."

The relaxed scene before them made everyone on the bus burst into laughter.

The atmosphere was pleasant and joyful.

After about an hour's drive, they finally returned to their neighborhood.

As Gao Chongting was parking the car, Cheng Yudie suddenly spoke up, "I have something I want to say to Wen He alone. You two go back first, I'll come back after I've finished talking to Wen He."

"Oh, I understand, I understand."

Gao Chongting drew out the last syllable of "oh," looking rather smug.

"You two chat, we won't disturb you, we're leaving now." As he spoke, Gao Chongting put his arm around Wen Ze, and the two of them went home together, laughing.

However, after walking a short distance, Gao Chongting suddenly turned back and added, "Oh, by the way, you don't have to come back tonight."

"Hurry up and go!" Cheng Yudie urged, her face slightly flushed.

After they left, Wen He felt quite nervous, sensing that something was off about the atmosphere.

Neither of them spoke much, but they both walked together toward their usual spot in a tacit understanding.
