"Baby, are you hungry?" Yu Heng gently hugged Chu Anlan, his large hand slowly stroking Chu Anlan's back, gentle and warm.

Chu Anlan curled up in Yu Heng's arms like a lazy cat, her eyes slightly closed, seemingly still immersed in a sweet dream.

His voice was tired and hoarse as he softly asked, "What time is it?"

"It's 6:30. Shall we go have dinner?" He looked at Chu Anlan with affection.

Upon hearing that it was time for dinner, Chu Anlan slightly opened her eyes, but quickly closed them again.

He mumbled, "Hmm~ I'm hungry, but I don't want to move..." Today was just too tiring for Chu Anlan.

From morning until now, he has only eaten a simple breakfast and then engaged in a high-intensity workout. At this moment, he feels as if all his strength has been drained, and he is too lazy to even move a finger.

Seeing Chu Anlan's exhausted appearance, Yu Heng felt extremely distressed.

He couldn't help but gently nuzzle Chu Anlan's cheek, his tone becoming even more tender: "Then you lie there obediently, I'll carry you to wash up, and we'll go out for dinner together after we're all ready?"

"Mmm, hug me, honey!" Chu Anlan closed her eyes and hugged Yu Heng's neck.

Just now, Yu Heng forced Chu Anlan to call him "husband" in bed, and she accidentally called him that name again.

Yu Heng smiled upon hearing this, kissed his forehead, and carried him towards the washroom...

"President Yu!" Gao Zhiyuan opened the car door and waited respectfully for Yu Heng to get in.

However, upon seeing Chu Anlan being held by Yu Heng, he was somewhat surprised: "Young Master Chu, what's this?"

"It's okay, he's just too sleepy." Yu Heng carefully placed Chu Anlan on the back seat of the car before getting in and sitting down with him.

"Where should we eat?" Chu Anlan opened her eyes slightly and leaned against Yu Heng.

He wasn't actually asleep, he was just a little tired, and when he left the room and saw Yu Heng again, he couldn't help but feel a little shy.

"Let's go to Linshui Pavilion." Yu Heng pulled Chu Anlan onto his lap.

Not long ago, the two experienced their most intimate moment together.

At this moment, Yu Heng cherished Chu Anlan in his arms as if she were a priceless treasure, like a dragon guarding an invaluable gem, and he was unwilling to be separated from her even for half a step.

His only thought was to defeat all those who dared to harbor ill intentions towards his treasure and to declare to the world that the person before him was a precious treasure that belonged exclusively to him!

Today, Yu Heng booked out the entire Linshui Pavilion.

"Mmm~ This fish is so delicious!" Chu Anlan enjoyed the delicious food and thoughtfully placed a piece of her chopsticks on Yu Heng's plate next to her.

Yu Heng smiled and ate the fish with Chu Anlan's chopsticks. After chewing it carefully, he nodded and praised, "It's really delicious."

"Don't eat too fast, your stomach won't be able to handle it later." As he spoke, he picked up a spoon and ladled a bowl of steaming hot three-delicacy soup for Chu Anlan, gently placing it in front of him.

At this moment, Chu Anlan was eating with great relish, her mouth stuffed full, like a cute little squirrel.

Hearing Yu Heng's concern, he looked up and mumbled, "I'm hungry! I haven't had lunch yet." After saying that, he turned his gaze to the table full of delicious food, thinking about which dish to pick next.

Yu Heng could only smile indulgently and had no choice but to continue serving him meals while keeping a close eye on him to make sure he didn't overeat.

"I'm full!" Chu Anlan put down her chopsticks and said happily to Yu Heng.

Yu Heng smiled and used a tissue to wipe Chu Anlan's mouth. Chu Anlan pouted slightly in response.

"Where are we going later?" Chu Anlan asked, holding Yu Heng's hand.

"Come on, I'll take you to a nice place." Yu Heng pulled Chu Anlan toward the balcony of the private room.

The Linshui Pavilion is located on the side of the Xishui River, the largest river in City C, and the private room where Yu Heng and his group were located was the highest private room in the entire Linshui Pavilion.

From their vantage point, they can overlook the beautiful scenery along the entire Xishui River.

As night falls and the river flows gently, everything on the banks becomes dreamlike under the illumination of the lights.

The lights cast delicate reflections on the water, like shimmering pearls, captivating all who behold them. A gentle breeze ripples the river, causing the reflections to sway gracefully, as if in a joyful dance.

"How beautiful!" Chu Anlan had seen such scenery before, but with his lover by his side, his state of mind was different, so he naturally felt that the scenery was especially beautiful at this moment.

“That’s not what I showed you.” Yu Heng hugged him from behind.

"Hmm?" Chu Anlan turned to look at him in confusion.

But at that moment, a firework exploded in the sky with a loud "bang".

The night sky was as dark as ink, and the moment the fireworks burst open seemed like the most magnificent miracle in the universe. Huge fireworks exploded in the air with a roar, and petals fell like rain, fluttering down, like a dream.

Each firework is like a meticulously painted scroll, bursting forth with golden, silvery-white, emerald green, pale purple, clear blue, and pink hues, a breathtaking sight.

The fireworks come in all shapes and sizes. Clusters of magnificent fireworks unfold like giant umbrellas in the night sky, while others twinkle like dazzling lamps in the darkness, and still others resemble blooming flowers, scattering golden powder.

"The east wind at night releases a thousand trees of flowers, and blows down stars like rain." Xin Qiji's poem seems to depict the scene before one's eyes.

Chu Anlan stared intently at the fireworks exploding in the sky, the "bang bang" of their explosions mingling with the sound of his heartbeat.

"Is it pretty?" Yu Heng whispered in his ear.

"Did you release it for me?" Chu Anlan turned to look at Yu Heng.

"Yes, do you like it?" Yu Heng cupped Chu Anlan's face in his hands: "My dear, from now on, we'll spend every year together, for many, many years. Happy New Year, I'll love you forever!"

"Me too!" Chu Anlan said, then grabbed Yu Heng's coat, stood on tiptoe, and kissed Yu Heng's lips.

Yu Heng wrapped one arm around his waist and pressed his head down with the other, deepening the kiss.

Dazzling fireworks burst in the sky, but time seemed to stand still. The whole world seemed to freeze, leaving only two hearts colliding fiercely.

……

Meanwhile, the banks of the Xishui River were crowded with people watching the fireworks, and police and firefighters were there to maintain order.

"What a sudden surprise! Why weren't we notified beforehand?"

"Holy crap, it's so beautiful!" Someone took out their phone to take a picture.

"Baby, I will always love you!" A couple was kissing.

"Mom, these fireworks are so pretty! I want to set them off too!" There was also a family with their child.

"Ahhh, Happy New Year!"

May you have a prosperous New Year!

"I'm going to find a partner next year!"

Of course, there are also young people making wishes to the sky.

There were so many onlookers that some people stood on the stairs at the entrance of the Linshui Pavilion, where they could see far from the high vantage point.

"Is the government being so generous this year? They're even allowing fireworks?"

"Wow, so beautiful! What a lavish investment!"

"Oh, thank goodness I went out today, otherwise I wouldn't have seen it."

"Yeah, which platform did they post the announcement on? I've never heard of a fireworks show today."

"Wasn't it said that fireworks were banned?"

"Oh, it's Chinese New Year, what's wrong with them all releasing the same thing at the same time?"

"Yes, without fireworks, it feels like the New Year is missing something."

"Thumbs up for the government of City C!"

……

Standing at the entrance of the waterside pavilion, Gao Zhiyuan listened to the murmurs of the crowd and wanted to say, "City C really does ban fireworks, but if you spend a little money to contribute to public facilities, it's not like you can't set them off. Of course, that's not a small amount!"
