New Year's Gifts

Wang Ding looked up at the outer defenses and said, "Tonight's eeriness is quite palpable."

"Yes, maybe they're celebrating the New Year too? It's been quite quiet all day, and there haven't been any strange occurrences on the defensive line."

That night, both Residential Zone and Danger Zones were brightly lit, and the streets and alleys were adorned with red lanterns and red couplets on doors, creating a lively atmosphere.

Elder Ju and several old friends strolled and chatted along the roadside, celebrating that they had kept another New Year alive.

Discipline Office, Qin Rang, who had lost his mind, lowered his head, and the dumplings on the table had gone cold.

No fireworks, no noise, a peaceful new year has arrived once again.

The entire New Year's Eve dinner was eventually eaten up. Lin Nieran was surprised that they, who all looked tall and thin, could eat so much.

Mo Lan was the most unexpected thing for Lin Nieran a small body with such a huge appetite! He had no idea where all that food went. Could it be that there was a black hole in his stomach?

Gan Tian, Yue Moonlit Night, Cheng Shanshi cleared the dishes, Wang He and the Butler cleaned the floor, and Serlandin cleaned up the leftover food.

The Flower Language lay dazed on the Lawn, while the surrounding Rose Thorns swayed and danced as if floating on air.

Along with her, Lai'er was also floating on air. He stood stiffly in place, his cheeks flushed, his eyes unfocused, as if he had been deprived of the right to walk.

Wu Liang, being Doctor, didn't drink alcohol, nor did the Writer. Modian, being a blockhead, was unaffected by alcohol. The three of them were urged by Lin Nieran to take a shower and rest.

"Alright, after you've cleaned up, go and get some rest as soon as possible. We'll be busy tomorrow morning."

"Okay."

Lin Nieran waved goodbye and went back to his room to rest first.

After washing up, he glanced at the time; it was exactly midnight.

"007, Lin Yi, Happy New Year."

Lin Yi's icy gaze softened slightly. "... Happy New Year."

Happy New Year, Host!

After leaving his blessings, Lin Nieran went back to sleep until the next morning, when the alarm clock rang.

At eight o'clock, everyone gradually got up.

The weather outside the Boundless Land is always good. Lin Nieran found a red sweater in the closet and put it on, but looking in the mirror, he felt something was off.

He wanted to celebrate the New Year with a festive atmosphere, but he had never worn such brightly colored clothes before, so he added a black cotton-padded coat over it.

"Alright, go give them red envelopes."

Upon arriving at the Dining Hall, Saintess Serlandin, who was the first to rise, had already prepared two breakfasts. Seeing him arrive, she immediately handed him the breakfasts that were still warming on the stove.

"Serlandin is so thoughtful." Lin Nieran smiled as he accepted the sumptuous breakfast, and casually took out a bulging red envelope and a red box from his spatial storage.

"New Year's gift, Happy New Year."

Serlandin's eyes lit up, and he happily accepted the gift, radiating joy.

"God lord, I have also prepared a gift for you." Serlandin raised his hand and presented Lin Nieran with a silver beaded necklace.

"I made this myself using materials I collected. It contains my Rules and can protect God deity from injury," Serlandin said gently.

Lin Nieran glanced at the beaded necklace, which had Saintess style, and smiled as she put it on her wrist, "Serlandin."

He truly hadn't expected that these Vest would also prepare gifts for him.

Serlandin held Lin Nieran's gift with great care, reluctant to open it, until Lin Nieran urged him to do so. Inside the box was a silver forehead ornament.

The forehead ornament is edged with silver chains, with an orange-gold rhombus-shaped gemstone hanging in the center, adorned with tiny diamonds.

It was a gemstone the same color as Serlandin's eyes.

This is Item that Lin Nieran found after searching through the System Shop for a long time.

Serlandin put it on immediately, her bright orange-gold eyes looking at him, Lin Nieran praised her as he wished.

While they were having breakfast, Lai'er and the Writer arrived together. As usual, Lin Nieran gave each of them a large red envelope and two gifts.

The Writer's gift was a cream-colored blanket.

The Writer's eyes crinkled with surprise, and Lai'er also curved into a smile, his eyes full of laughter.

Thank you, boss, and Happy New Year!

"Thank you, my Lord, Happy New Year."

After saying this, the Writer took out an exquisitely wrapped book from under the blanket beside his legs and handed it to Lin Nieran.

[New Year's Gift]

Lin Nieran took the book and saw that it contained dozens of pages of concise and effective Rules such as [Defense] and [Attack].

Unaware of this custom, Lai'er stared blankly at the book in the Writer's hand, then suddenly turned and left.

Lin Nieran asked, "Where are you going?"

"I forgot something!"

Lai'er thought angrily, "That Writer is so cunning! He prepared things without saying a word and secretly got me a gift!"

He was too careless; he didn't know that you exchange gifts during the New Year. Now he's embarrassed himself in front of his Master!

Lin Nieran watched with amusement as Lai'er fled in disarray, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw Wang, dressed in a flamboyant manner, walking towards them with a radiant expression.

Good morning, Father!

Wang approached him and, before Lin Nieran speak, handed him the red velvet box, saying, "Happy New Year! This is a New Year's gift!"

Lin Nieran smiled and handed over a red envelope and a matching red box, "A New Year's gift."

The Butler handed the black box to Lin Nieran, saying, "Happy New Year, Master."

"Happy New Year, Grandpa Butler!"

The gifts Lin Nieran gave to the two of them were ones he had chosen after a long period of consideration.

Wang opened the box, looked at the golden ring inside, and his gray eyes filled with a smile.
