In a villa in a mountain villa on the outskirts of the capital.

In the kitchen, Lu Mingfei is cooking fish, and Norton and Konstantin are washing vegetables.

The fish should be fried until it is slightly yellow, then a fried egg is added, and then warm water is added to boil, so that the boiled fish soup is more delicious and flavorful.

When he was at home, Lu Mingfei not only bought soy sauce for his aunt, but also cooked.

So he can do it somewhat, but a lot of the time it's not him.

"The shrimp are ready, do you want to divide half of them to make the shrimp slippery?" The kitchen is very large, and on the other side, after Natsumi washed the shrimp, he asked, "If you want, I'll chop the shrimp meat first." ”

"Yes!"

"I want to eat!" Konstantin was the first to raise his hand.

"That's good." Xia Mi nodded, "I'll let you taste my craft today." ”

"I didn't expect the dignified Dragon King to cook himself." Sitting in the living room, Mai glanced at the kitchen and teased, "Are you sure you will?" ”

"Don't you want to eat the dragon king?" Xia Mi rolled her eyes, "Anyway, the poison won't kill you, don't worry!" ”

Su Enxi lay on the sofa horizontally, his head resting on Jiude Mai's lap, his feet were also on Zero's leg, holding a bag of potato chips in his hand, stuffing them into his mouth one by one, and said vaguely, "Let the little ones be busy, let's watch the Spring Festival Gala well, after all, I also paid my salary, didn't I?" ”

In a way, Norton and Constantine are her employees!

The title of Chief Alchemist is not for nothing, but she has to pay Norton a salary every month, and sometimes Norton even asks her for funding for new research projects.

As the boss, Su Enxi can't understand at all, and she doesn't understand alchemy at all, Norton said that she wants to approve the money, can she not give it?

She wondered if Norton had bullied her for not being able to read and thus swindling her out of money.

So there's nothing wrong with her enjoying it, isn't it?

"Oh, did you know that you're a lot like an unscrupulous boss who oppresses employees right now?" Jiude Mai reached out and pinched Su Enxi's face and said, "What kind of Spring Festival Gala to watch, find a movie to watch." ”

Zero watched Su Enxi's feet rub against his legs, and pushed away expressionlessly.

"Oh, don't be so stingy, don't you blame my sister for not believing in you for so long, sister, I'll give you a kiss, mua~" Su Enxi sat up and went to hug Zero, and Zero blocked her forehead with her hand in disgust, "Mai needs you." ”

And, what does it mean to kiss you one?

You're obviously kissing others like yourself, okay?

Su Enxi was a little regretful, and beckoned to Fenrir, who was sitting obediently, "Sister, I have potato chips here, do you want them?" Call my sister to listen, my sister will give you potato chips, and there are a lot of them in my sister's room, and there are all kinds of flavors. ”

"Really? What does it taste like? Fenrir's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"There are all kinds of flavors, after all, my sister has money, and she can buy whatever flavor she wants, how about it?" Su Enxi said.

In the kitchen, Xia Mi's voice came out, a little hateful, "Fenrir, when will you be able to change your temperament and sell yourself with a bag of potato chips?" ”

"There are a lot of bad people here, you have to protect yourself!"

Immediately after, there was the sound of Natsumi chopping shrimp meat.

Lu Mingfei listened to this voice, and his eyebrows jumped.

It always felt like she meant something else.

"Oh, but......" Fenrir glanced cautiously at the kitchen.

However, the potato chips are really delicious!

Ella glanced at the people cooking in the kitchen and asked, "Can't I buy it directly?" ”

"You are so rich, you don't have to be so troublesome to buy it directly."

"It's different." Lu Mingfei didn't look back.

"What's the difference?" Ella asked.

"It's definitely different, maybe it's a sense of accomplishment?" Lu Mingfei said.

"Happiness?" Norton said.

"No, it's obviously a sense of trouble, find something to do for yourself, and do it too much." Mai stretched her waist.

Eri Yi walked into the kitchen at this time and came to Lu Mingfei's side.

She looked at the fish in the pot and said, "I'll help too!" ”

She hadn't cooked in a long time.

It's been more than a year since she last cooked.

Well, Eri naturally included the barbecue she used to have in the mountains into the ranks of cooking.

It's just that, hearing Eri's words, Norton and Constantine shook their heads again and again, "Eri, you are a guest, how can there be any reason to let guests help, you go sit first, and we will call you when you are ready." ”

"Uh-huh." Konstantin nodded, "Sister Eriyi, this is a custom!" ”

Hearing this, Eri looked at Norton and Konstantin suspiciously, and then looked at Natsumi, who was chopping shrimp meat into minced meat, "Then how did she ......?"

Natsumi should also be considered a guest?

Oh no, Eri always felt that something was wrong.

This house seems to be Su Enxi's, right?

The owner of the house is lying on the couch at the moment, with soft thighs on his pillows.

These people should all be considered guests, right?

"Old Don, you watch." Lu Mingfei greeted Lao Tang, and then pulled Eriyi, who was still a little dazed and thinking about this question, and left the kitchen, "Cute girls don't usually cook." ”

", Lu Mingfei, you're going to die, what do you mean by a cute girl who doesn't cook?" In the kitchen, Xia Mi's roar came out, and when she saw that she was about to come out with a kitchen knife, Konstantin hurriedly grabbed Xia Mi, "Sister, don't!" ”

Then he gave Natsumi a hard look.

He didn't want to try his hand at painting pear again.

Have a good New Year!

Xia Mi looked at Konstantin, then at Lu Mingfei, and probably guessed it.

However, if you take Eri Yi out, you will take Eri Yi out, why do you have to make up for me?

What's wrong with me cooking a meal?

"I'm going to beat you up sooner or later!" Xia Mi bared her teeth and said viciously.

"Uh-huh, I've got your back." Konstantin hurriedly said.

"What about you, Konstantin, will you help me?" Natsumi looked at Konstantin and asked.

When Konstantin heard this, thinking that Lu Mingfei had brutally crucified himself with the Seven Deadly Sins, and that Lu Mingfei could still turn into that terrifying black monster, he shook his head again and again, "I don't fight." ”

Natsumi, "......"

If you don't fight, you won't fight, but what does that scared look on your face mean?

...

...

The meal was quickly prepared, and everyone was seated one by one.

Ella raised her eyebrows and looked at Lu Mingfei.

"What's wrong?" Lu Mingfei asked with some confusion.

"Someone's coming." Ella said.

"Who else?" Lu Mingfei was a little strange.

Bang bang bang!

As soon as Ella finished speaking, there was a loud knock on the door outside.

Everyone looked at each other.

Lu Mingfei got up and walked over to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, a somewhat obscene head poked in.

"Yo, happy Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone!"

"Look, what have I brought you?"

Fingal raised the red wine in his hand, "I spent a lot of money to send it from France, this is a baby, if it weren't for the Chinese New Year, I wouldn't be willing to drink it!" ”

Lu Mingfei took the red wine in Fingal's hand, looked at the origin marked in Chinese on it, and asked hesitantly, "Senior brother, how can I look like the kind of fifty yuan and three bottles in the supermarket?" ”

Even if you take the fake one, you also have to use an all-English one seriously, what is the matter with you using Chinese?

"Senior brother, how can senior brother be such a person!"

"This is really what I bought with my only deposit!"

He expertly entered the door, then closed the door and took a deep breath, "It smells so good!" ”

Then, naturally, Fingal brought a chair to Norton's side, "Don, squeeze in!" ”

After taking his seat, Fingal left and said to Lu Mingfei, who was still standing, "Senior brother, come here, what are you polite, just treat this place as your own home." ”

"You really think this is your home!" Mai rolled her eyes.

"Oh, where is the organization, where is my home!" Fingal looked at Su Enxi, "Boss Su, you're right!" ”

"Oh, junior sister, I haven't seen you for a few days, you've become cute again!" Fingal boasted.

When Xia Mi heard this, a smile appeared in her eyes, "Thank you, senior brother, for the compliment, or hello senior brother, it's really sad not like someone who even beats his junior sister." ”

"Alas, there's no way, there are too many scum these years, don't worry, senior brother, I'm definitely not that kind of person." Fingal said, patting his chest.

"Don't you dare." Hearing this, Zero glanced at Fingal silently and said.

"Senior sister, you too, what nonsense are telling the truth!" Fingal was not embarrassed in the slightest.

However, Fingal looked at Eri again, "Eri, how is your brother doing?" ”

Eri nodded, "Should it be okay?" ”

"Should?" Fingal was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself that it couldn't be this eldest lady who was homeless again, right?

But instead of dwelling on, he said, "Eri, do you remember what you said when we used to eat ramen?" ”

Eri Yi tilted her head and looked at Lu Mingfei, who was sitting next to her, and Lu Mingfei shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

"What did you say?" Eri's face was full of doubts.

"That's ......," Fingal waved his chopsticks, "check!" ”

"Didn't you say write me a check? What about checks? Fingal's face was full of anticipation.

"Oh, did I say that?" Eri thought for a moment, and then said, "Eri forgot it, Eri forgot it, so she definitely didn't say it!" ”

Hearing this, the anticipation on Fingal's face froze, and there seemed to be a sound of heartbreak.

His dream of making a fortune was just in vain.

"Come, let's have a drink first." Jiude Mai gave everyone a glass of wine, "I don't know what to say, I'll just say a part-time job, in short, everyone can sit together for this year, it is the result of joint efforts, and it is not easy to come by." ”

"We don't know what will happen in the days to come, but we just walk."

"The road is always walked by people."

"Cheers, Happy Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone!"

"Cheers!"

"Happy Chinese New Year's Eve!"

The glasses clinked together, reflecting a pair of expectant eyes.

Those eyes are so clear and transparent, with light.

...

...

After the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, everyone came to the rooftop.

In this weather, there should be no starlight.

But tonight, the sky was unusually clear, and even a crescent moon could be seen.

The wind in the air is cold, but the breath is clear like a mountain.

There was a faint sound in the air coming from far away.

On the other side of the mountain, the sky is rendered with color.

It's just that the mountains cut off everyone's sight.

"You can't see fireworks here, if only there were fireworks." Natsumi said.

"Fireworks?" Fenrir asked curiously, "What is it?" ”

"Fireworks, although they are instantaneous, they are extremely bright." Xia Mi thought for a while and said, "That's the most beautiful light in the world, and it's also the most brilliant light." ”

"I want to see it too." Fenrir said.

Ella stood on the edge of the rooftop, her long silver hair blowing in the wind, and she watched the night go into obsessiveness.

Next to her is Eri Kao, who is wearing a shrine maiden costume.

At this moment, Eri also looked at the night sky in the distance.

A year ago, she also saw fireworks like the sky in the distance, which was the most beautiful picture in the world.

She still remembers that when she saw the colors that lit up the night sky, she felt as if she felt the temperature of the world.

"What do you think?" Ella asked.

"Think of the images you used to see when you watched fireworks, have you ever seen them?" Eri asked.

"Watching with him?" Ella asked.

"Hmm."

"Lu Jun is a very good person, he can create miracles, he is very powerful!" Speaking of Lu Mingfei, Eriyi's eyes lit up.

Ella tilted her head slightly, looked at the girl with joy written on her face, and said softly, "You're also very good." ”

"Eri Yi is not good, Eri Yi can't do anything." Eri shook her head and said.

Ella gently reached out and combed Eri's long dark red hair, "You're also a miracle worker." ”

"What about you?" Eri looked up at Ella, her ruby pupils filled with curiosity.

After contact, Eri slowly felt that Ella was a little close, probably because of her bloodline.

"Me?" Ella looked at Eri and was slightly stunned.

"Are you looking for something?" Eri asked, "Just like me used to be?" ”

Ella shook her head, and she whispered, "I'm not you, everyone is different. ”

Eri thought about it and said something, but before her words could be spoken, flowers began to light up one after another around the villa in the dark night.

Rose, Moon, Olive, Lily of the Valley, Laurel......

One by one, these flowers lit up, and soon covered the field of vision of Eri, Ella, Natsumi, Fenrir, and others.

It seems that in an instant, there are 3,000 bright lights, and flowers are blooming all over the city.

Lu Mingfei's voice also came from high in the sky at this time, "Everyone, Happy New Year!" ”

Everyone looked up, and directly Lu Mingfei vibrated his blue wings, and behind him, were Norton and Constantine.

As Lu Mingfei's voice fell, the sky behind him suddenly reflected the light in the sky, countless sparks converged into gorgeous stars, and fireworks bloomed in the sky, rendering the beauty of this moment to the extreme, and also imprinting the picture of this moment deeply in everyone's minds.

Xia Mi looked at Lu Mingfei standing in front of the dreamlike scenery and couldn't help but feel a little distracted, and the ice cube somewhere in her heart seemed to be melting.

"It's beautiful." Fenrir whispered.

So this is the color of the world?

It's Ella, looking at this picture-like scene at the moment, and she also lost her mind slightly.

Is this the fireworks on earth?

It's so beautiful, it's so warm.
