"Chiu Chiu~"
Yue stopped in front of Xiao Xiao.
"Ying Ying~"
Ying Shao followed close behind.
Xiao Xiao tilted his head slightly and smiled at the two little monsters.
"Although I already said it before..."
"But this time, it's truly... Happy New Year, Yue and Ying Shao."
"I hope we'll continue to get along well in the new year."
"Chiu Chiu~"
Yue blinked.
Then it happily spun around in the air a few times.
"Ying Ying~"
Ying Shao rolled its eyes.
It hadn't even understood what he meant, so why was Yue making such a fuss?
It lowered its head to Lord Xiao Xiao.
Lord Xiao Xiao was too polite.
They were the ones who should be asking Lord Xiao Xiao to continue guiding them.
Ying Shao raised its head.
"Ying Ying~ Ying Ying~"
Happy New Year, Lord Xiao Xiao.
Ying Shao's eyes were filled with smiles.
"Chiu Chiu~ Chiu Chiu~"
Yue hurriedly followed Ying Shao, bowing its head to Xiao Xiao as well before cheerfully wishing him a happy New Year.
Light gradually appeared on the horizon.
The snow blanketing the ground seemed to gleam even brighter.
The clamor of the night felt like a dream.
The city was utterly silent in the early morning.
A new year and a new day had begun.
Xiao Xiao opened his eyes.
He got up and went to the window.
When he opened it, a thin mist carrying a biting chill poured inside.
Xiao Xiao took a deep breath.
He felt refreshed.
A smile appeared on his face.
"Chiu Chiu~"
"Ying Ying~"
Familiar greetings sounded beside him.
Xiao Xiao narrowed his eyes.
"Good morning, Yue, Ying Shao."
Xiao Xiao went downstairs.
Steam curled up in the dining room.
Breakfast had already been laid
