Linchuan.
Hmm, I don’t know when it started, but this city has truly beco a first-tier city.
Perhaps it’s because of those international companies that inexplicably ca to Linchuan to invest, or maybe it’s because more and more people of extraordinary status have gathered in Linchuan over ti.
In any case, this city has undergone an unprecedented transformation, almost without anyone noticing.
Many people of Linchuan have noticed an increase in luxury cars around them, and high-end consumption venues have also begun to open one after another. Even the average salary level has improved significantly.
However, for so unknown reason, although the city has transford, the wealthy individuals and CEOs of major companies appearing in Linchuan have remained quite low-key.
So low-key that it’s almost appalling.
These ordinary people of Linchuan naturally do not know that this transformation of the city was actually gradually accomplished by a similarly low-profile individual.
Moreover, the current peaceful situation in Linchuan is also secretly maintained by this person.
And now, this person is busy and flustered in the kitchen.
"Qianqian, you’ve added too much salt, add so water."
"An Qin, that shredded potato needs to be cut finer to taste good."
"I say, Xiaoxiao, can you please not make a ss? That’s sugar, not salt!"
A few people squeezed into the kitchen, busy celebrating this reunion.
After bustling about for a long ti, they finally looked at a table full of dishes with satisfaction and smiles on their faces.
"Alright, finally done!" Lin Xiaoxiao said with a big laugh.
"If it weren’t for you causing trouble, we’d have finished a long ti ago," An Qin said from the side.
"What did you say?" Lin Xiaoxiao glared.
"Okay, okay, stop arguing and go wash your hands; it’s ti to eat," Lin Yi said with a smile.
Just then, the doorbell outside the villa suddenly rang.
"Hmm? Who’s here?"
"I’ll go check." Li Chen promptly ran out.
Soon, Li Chen ca back into the house with a few people.
"Yao Chou, Bing Yu, and... are you Zhong Tian?" Lin Yi looked at Zhong Tian with surprise.
"This guy has lost weight. How about that, didn’t I say my junior brother had potential?" Li Chen laughed out loud.
An Qin gave Li Chen a sidelong glance, actually wanting to say what it had to do with him.
"By the way, this is..." Lin Yi looked at the girl beside Zhong Tian and couldn’t help but ask.
"Sis-in-law, she’s Zhang Yuwei, my girlfriend," Zhong Tian said with a silly grin.
Zhang Yuwei blushed uncontrollably beside him.
She knew Zhong Tian didn’t have many relatives; the only ones who could be considered family were those grandfathers who were rarely seen, and the closest was this senior brother before her, who had even saved the two of them not long ago.
Accompanying Zhong Tian this ti could be considered eting the family.
"Just in ti, we’ve just finished preparing the al, co join us," Lin Yi fully displayed the deanor expected of the lady of the house on Li Chen’s marriage certificate.
"Thank you, sis-in-law," Zhong Tian said with a smile.
"Thank you, sis-in-law," Zhang Yuwei also quickly said.
The group gathered around the table. With the arrival of Yao Chou and Zhong Tian, though it still seed sowhat male-female unbalanced, at least Li Chen found soone he could talk to.
Generally speaking, once the won started chatting, he was relegated to being a silent listener, quietly shoveling food into his mouth.
"Oh, seems you’re living pretty well." Yao Chou sat beside Li Chen, with a mischievous smile, his eyes subconsciously flicking over Lin Yi and the other won.
"Not too bad," Li Chen said earnestly, but an involuntary smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
"Laughing so lewdly, be careful you don’t exhaust yourself tonight!" Seeing Li Chen’s expression, Yao Chou was suddenly a bit displeased.
Lowering his voice, Yao Chou glanced at the won engrossed in conversation and whispered in Li Chen’s ear, "I’ve never been impressed by anyone, but I’m impressed by you. Your cultivation speed is rising like a rocket, and even your ability with won is incredibly strong."
Hearing this, Li Chen’s serious expression faltered a bit. Like passing secret notes as an underground operative, he whispered back, "So, how about learning a couple of San Shou techniques from your brother? I guarantee imdiate success."
"I’d rather not. I can’t even handle Bing Yu alone; I have no mind to think about others," Yao Chou quickly gestured no with his hands.
"I’m just trying to help you win Bing Yu over better," Li Chen said.
"That sounds good!" Yao Chou’s smile beca more mischievous.
Zhong Tian, sitting beside them, could hear their conversation but couldn’t quite understand what they were talking about.
San Shou? Could it be that Senior Brother is going to teach Big Brother Yao Chou techniques?
"Senior Brother, Senior Brother, what’s San Shou? I want to learn too!"
Li Chen and Yao Chou turned their heads to look at the straightforward-faced Zhong Tian.
"You, better forget it."
Li Chen and Yao Chou were having a good ti chatting, and the group of won were even more animated in their conversation. They seed to be discussing the n, as their occasional glances in that direction gave Li Chen and Yao Chou an inexplicable chill.
However, Zhong Tian, with a simple expression, faced the won’s gaze more naturally. The won’s looks at Zhong Tian were more normal, too.
The al continued in a lively atmosphere among the group.
"Given the ti, it should almost be New Year’s, right?" Lin Yi suddenly said during the al.
"What’s the matter, sis, do you want to go ho and take a look?" Lin Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but ask.
Lin Yi shook her head lightly at this.
"It’s not the right ti yet."
Seeing Lin Yi lose interest in further conversation, Lin Xiaoxiao didn’t ask more. To be honest, she didn’t have much desire to return either, but, being a Huaxia person, there is always a habit of family reunions during New Year’s.
"Everyone can finally be together again. I think this might be a new beginning?"
"Yeah, this al is actually missing a few people." Li Chen suddenly shook his head and said, "A few people haven’t co. If they were here, it would be a real reunion dinner."
Li Chen was naturally referring to several grandfathers and Ouyang Wan’er.
They were the family who accompanied him during his childhood.
Lin Yi and the others were also his family, and only when all his loved ones were present, it might be a genuine reunion for him.
Seeing Li Chen’s expression, Lin Yi and the other won were just about to say sothing when Li Chen spoke.
"It’s okay. When the real New Year arrives, I’ll do everything I can to invite the grandfathers over for a reunion dinner together!" Li Chen said with a smile.
"Senior Brother is right! I miss the masters too," Zhong Tian agreed.
However, just at that mont, Li Chen’s phone suddenly rang.
Looking at the number, it was Catherine calling.
After answering the call for a short while, Li Chen’s face changed.
