My seniority is extraordinary: I was only eight years old when the whole village came to wish me a H

When her assistant, Xiao Li, said "Time's almost up" in her earphones, Su Qinghuan felt as if an invisible hand had suddenly clenched her heart.

ten minutes.

Only ten minutes remain.

This epic live stream, which lasted from dawn till dusk, attracted the attention of hundreds of millions of people and created countless miracles, is about to reach its final and most exciting moment.

Su Qinghuan took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the surging excitement in her heart.

She knew that the closer she got to the end, the less she could afford to relax.

"Old Wang, Little Li, all units, listen up!"

Her voice, transmitted clearly through the microphone, reached the ears of every staff member.

"Now, we're entering the final preparation stage for the New Year's countdown!"

"All cameras, point them directly at the ancestral hall square! Lights and sound, adjust everything to its optimal state!"

"Show me a live stream feed, a panoramic view of the square above it, the kind where you can see the moon!"

"Yes, Chairman!"

As she issued her commands, the entire control room once again entered a highly tense, wartime state.

The live stream footage also changed accordingly.

The camera slowly pulls up from the villagers who are celebrating, rising into the sky.

The final image captured a breathtakingly beautiful painting.

In the deep blue night sky, a bright, round moon, as white as a jade plate, hangs high.

The cool moonlight, like mercury spilling onto the ground, bathed the entire valley.

Beneath the full moon, in the vast ancestral hall square, a huge bonfire still burned fiercely.

Thousands of villagers from Wujia Village have stopped dancing and performing.

They spontaneously sat down on the ground around the huge campfire.

Their faces all wore expressions of utmost piety and anticipation.

Their gazes were all fixed in the same direction.

That was the small, solitary figure sitting right in front of the campfire.

The whole scene was quiet and peaceful, yet filled with a sacred sense of ritual.

In the live broadcast room, hundreds of millions of viewers were also touched by this tranquil and sacred atmosphere.

The comments section became sparse again.

Everyone was waiting quietly.

We await the arrival of that sacred moment of transition between the old and the new.

Looking at the scene, which resembled an oil painting, Su Qinghuan felt a surge of emotion.

Speaking into the microphone in an incredibly gentle and expectant tone, she slowly said, "Dear viewers..."

"Time always marches by so quickly."

"In the blink of an eye, we have arrived at the final moment of this special year."

"In less than ten minutes, we will be embarking on a brand new beginning together."

"In the past year, we have probably all experienced a lot."

There was laughter, there were tears, there were successes, and there were setbacks.

"But in any case, they will soon become the past."

"At this moment, let us put down all our worries and unhappiness."

"Let us do this with the most sincere and grateful hearts."

Let's make a wish together for the new year, expressing our best hopes and hopes.

Su Qinghuan's words were like a warm spring breeze, blowing into the hearts of every audience member.

next second.

The live stream chat exploded with comments once again!

But this time, it wasn't the previous exclamations and jokes.

Instead, they are New Year's wishes filled with sincerity and anticipation.

"In the new year, I hope my grandmother, who is far away in heaven, can rest in peace. I also hope that my family members will be healthy and safe."

"I hope I can pass the postgraduate entrance exam next year and get into my dream school!"

"I hope the girl I've had a crush on for three years will accept my confession! I don't want to miss out again!"

"I hope my company can weather this storm! I don't want to let down the brothers who have fought alongside me!"

"I hope for world peace, and for an end to war."

……

The barrage of comments, like countless shining stars, converged on the dark screen to form a dazzling galaxy.

Each wish represents the most genuine and simple expectation of an ordinary person.

There are blessings for family, expectations for career, longing for love, and the best wishes for the world.

This moment.

Regardless of poverty or wealth, regardless of status.

Everyone dropped their usual pretense and masks.

They all returned to their most authentic selves, filled with boundless hope for the future.

In the control room, Su Qinghuan looked at the galaxy formed by countless wishes, and her eyes welled up with tears again.

She also silently made her New Year's wish in her heart.

And just then...

On the square, Wu You, who had been sitting quietly, suddenly moved.

He slowly raised his head.

His dark, inky eyes gazed at the bright, clear moon in the night sky.

A faint, almost imperceptible, relieved smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

It's as if I'm having a silent conversation with someone from a distant past.

In his previous life, Wu You was a financial genius, but he earned his status step by step through his talent and hard work. He was an orphan.

In this life, he remains the same, having lost his parents to illness when he was young.

Perhaps his parents, who may have existed in his previous life, are also thinking of him at this moment.

Regardless of all this, I hope Wu You will be free from worries.

"Dad, Mom."

Did you see that?

"Your son is doing well here."

"I hope you're all doing well over there in the new year."

"Happy New Year, Wu You..."
