Even though people had long since left their home planet, Earth, they still retained fixed customs, perhaps as a form of remembrance.
In a magnificent, spacious house.
Lin Hao sat on the sofa, his eyes filled with helplessness as he watched everyone arguing.
"Why are you here, you worm?" Qin Mohan suddenly sat next to Lin Hao, looking coldly at Elfa who stood nearby.
His tone was full of disdain.
Why did this worm show up? Truly bad luck.
Elfa, opposite Lin Hao, ignored Qin Mohan's words and sat down opposite Lin Hao.
"Why can't I be here? If my cub is here, then I'll be here. Besides, who let this mad dog in?"
I really don't know who sent the invitation to let this mad dog in.
Upon hearing this, Qin Mohan instantly lost his composure, ready to abandon his aloof persona and attack.
Seeing this, Lin Hao directly pushed Qin Mohan back onto the sofa and said comfortingly, "It's the New Year, don't get angry, don't get angry. Harmony, harmony."
Why were these two arguing again? And was this still the aloof Crown Prince? He was acting like a child, even capable of arguing.
"Then let me hug you," Qin Mohan said, hearing Lin Hao's words. He indeed sat back on the sofa, pressing close to Lin Hao's body and whispering into his ear.
Lin Hao, suddenly feeling the closeness, froze for a moment before reluctantly pulling Qin Mohan into his embrace.
Alas, this New Year, he still had to coax a child. Truly exhausting.
Shameless.
Shameless.
Shameless.
Shameless.
This wasn't his childhood friend, Bo Han. Seeing this scene, he silently turned away, indicating he didn't know him.
The others silently scrolled through their minds, because they had never seen anyone so shameless.
"Lin Hao, I want a hug too." A lively young man suddenly appeared behind Lin Hao and gave him a bear hug.
Lin Hao, who had just released Qin Mohan, almost fell to the ground. Still adhering to the principle of "no anger during the New Year," he turned his head and smiled at the person still hugging him, saying, "Xie Shuwen, let go of me."
"No, no, Lin Hao, give me a hug. You haven't hugged me in years, ugh, ugh, ugh." Hearing this, Xie Shuwen didn't let go; instead, he accused Lin Hao of his crimes while hugging him even tighter.
Lin Hao indulged him, after all, he really hadn't seen him in years.
Hill and the others watched this calmly.
"Ding dong."
A sound interrupted the farcical scene. Lin Hao finally had a chance to escape the bear hug. He simply said, "I'll get the door," and went to the entrance.
"Happy New Year." *2
As soon as Lin Hao opened the door, he saw Li Huan and Bai Chen, both holding gifts.
"Happy New Year," Lin Hao said upon seeing them and quickly stepped aside, urging them to come in.
They were led to the sofa by Lin Hao, and in an instant, the previously empty room was filled with warmth and life.
In less than two minutes, the New Year's Eve dinner was ready.
They all took their seats.
As Lin Hao picked up his chopsticks, ready to eat, he heard someone say, "It's the New Year, Worm King, say a few words."
"Yes, say a few words."
Damn it.
I hate speaking at dinner the most. Can't we just eat properly? Do we have to put on a performance afterward?
Lin Hao lowered his head and silently put down his chopsticks. Then, holding his cup with a smile, he said, "In the new year, I hope everyone will be happy every day, have this day every year, and live long and prosper. And may none of you fall ill."
The moment Lin Hao finished speaking, fireworks erupted outside.
At this moment, everyone stood up and said in unison, "Happy New Year."
