He accidentally bumped into the witch while flying on his sword.

……

After the final exams, both of them got good grades.

While not particularly amazing, it was still a performance at a normal level.

Based on this simulated ranking, it shouldn't be too difficult for us to all get into Los Angeles University.

……

Unlike other ordinary families.

The Spring Festival for the Extraordinary Family seemed rather quiet.

Especially in Yun Yi's family, almost all of the maternal relatives have been buried by time.

As an only child, my father only needs to visit my grandparents occasionally.

Because of the improved transportation, Yun Su brought her parents-in-law to the house in Luocheng where Yun Yao and Yun Yi lived.

I chose to spend the Chinese New Year here this year.

……

Chen Shun's house was quite lively.

They don't need to visit relatives during the New Year; the whole family gathers in the huge mountain villa for a sumptuous and luxurious New Year's Eve dinner.

Apart from her mother and aunt, most of the others were family members of the Chen family, such as the three envoys "Wind, Fire, and Thunder," who depended on the Chen family for survival, and they did so to express their gratitude to their master for his kindness.

Naturally, this only happens on the day of the Lunar New Year. Originally, Old Master Chen Lu wanted to cancel this ritual, but they refused, saying that it was a rule established by their ancestors, and that the Chen family would have to do it every year as long as they lived.

Chen Lu went along with them.

The guests were all very happy, but Chen Lu was still not quite satisfied.

Because he still couldn't see the pretty girl he most wanted to see at the New Year's banquet.

When he asked Chen Shun about it, the latter could only awkwardly explain, "Grandpa... other families also celebrate the New Year."

……

……

On New Year's Eve, firecrackers were set off at the mountain resort.

Surrounded by a group of cultivators, it was naturally unlikely to cause any fire.

Chen Shun lay on the red tiles of the roof, using his head as a pillow to watch the fireworks.

He put his phone aside and video-chatted with the little witch.

She was dressed especially festively today.

It was her grandparents who bought her the bright red coat.

He does look a bit like happy Tong.

Why are you dressed so red today?

"It's for celebration. Are they setting off firecrackers over there? It's so noisy."

Only under the firelight could she see the profile of her beloved.

"It's a pity, they don't allow firecrackers in the city."

"How about I put one on for you?" Chen Shun suggested.

How are you going to put it?

"Go and get a yellow talisman and stick it on your forehead."

He had given the little witch a lot of talismans before, and he knew she had kept them all safe.

Yun Yi jogged back into the house, took out a yellow talisman, and carefully put away the rest.

He ran to the balcony, licked the yellow talisman, slapped it onto his forehead, and stared longingly at the sky.

……

"They're here, get ready," Chen Shun reminded them.

Yun Yi held his breath and focused intently, his eyes darting around.

A golden flying sword pierced through the air and hovered under the moon.

Beneath the little witch's widening eyes, the flying sword split into countless pieces, exploding like a lotus-shaped firework.

Golden streaks of light fell slowly through the air like a meteor shower.

Countless golden sparkles were reflected in the little witch's bright eyes.

It was so beautiful that only she could see it.

Using flying swords as fireworks?

As expected of him.

Do you like it?

"I like it, I'll have another one."

===Chapter 227 May the Stars Shine Upon You

"Xiao Yi, what are you looking at? The moon?" Yun Yao came to the balcony to replenish her sister's energy.

But then I saw my younger sister holding her head in her hands, twisting her waist, and gazing at the sky with tender eyes.

"No, I was looking at the gift Chen Shun gave me." She turned her head, startling Yun Yao.

I thought it was some kind of zongzi (sticky rice dumpling).

"A gift? The moon?"

Is there such a way to pick up girls without spending any money?

Yun Yao's opinion of her junior has dropped.

"Of course not!"

Yunyi tore the talisman off her head, hesitated for a moment, and then stuck it on her sister's forehead.

"Sister, look at it now."

Yun Yao looked up at the sky.

Countless golden streaks of light, like shooting stars, slowly fell, filling the entire sky.

She slowly opened her mouth wide, and asked in astonishment:

"Is this a gift from your junior?"

"Hmm, how is it?"

"It's not good at all, not good at all. My sister is doing just fine without such a gift, isn't she?" Yun Yao's tone was full of sarcasm.

"Sis, are you jealous?"

"I'm not sour!"

"Then give me back the talisman!" the little witch stamped her foot and urged.

My sister has been hogging the talisman for half a minute now!

Yun Yao sniffed, her nose stinging, and reluctantly tore off the talisman from her forehead and stuck it back on her sister's forehead.

This silly little sister has completely transformed into her junior brother!

"This talisman also belongs to the junior?"

"Yes, isn't that amazing?"

"It's pretty amazing, it sticks to your forehead with just a slap."

"That's because I just licked it a few times."

"..."

Yun Yao went back to her room and washed her forehead.

The Great Witch and her husband are huddled together watching the Spring Festival Gala.

The large-screen TV, which I originally intended to use for creating background ambient sound, has unexpectedly come in handy.

"It's almost New Year's." Yun Yao murmured as she looked at the countdown on the TV.

……

"Ten! Nine!...Three! Two! One!"

"Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

……

A message popped up on her phone. Yunyao opened it and saw that it was a New Year's greeting from her boyfriend, sent right on time.

It also came with a red envelope.

Although it wasn't as romantic as what her junior did for his sister, it was still enough to satisfy Yun Yao.

After all, as an ordinary person, her boyfriend couldn't do things like flying swords or fireworks.

……

"Happy New Year!" Yun Yi said sweetly.

"Happy New Year!"

The two exchanged blessings over their phones.

"In the new year, you have to like me just as much as you did last year."

"I'm sorry, I can't do that," Chen Shun said.

"Ok?"

"In the new year, I will only like you a little more than last year."
