Chapter 46: Fireworks of Hope
After the final performance, thunderous applause erupted from the audience.
Accompanied by the applause, Xiao Yan once again stepped onto the stage and gracefully bowed to the Xiao Clan members below.
Thank you all for watching. Todays evening party comes to an end, and now we have the final activity of the Xiao Clans New Year celebration!
As Xiao Yans words fell, the applause from the audience erupted once again, even more intense than before.
This scene made Nalan Yanrans heart skip a beat, and her curiosity about the final activity reached its peak.
Similarly, Qing Lin, who was held lightly in Xiao Yus embrace, also showed curiosity in her small eyes.
Xiao Yan glanced at the backstage and saw Xiao Ning giving him a thumbs-up, then disappearing without a trace.
Xiao Yans gaze turned to the Xiao Clan members below the stage once again. He raised one hand slowly and cheerfully shouted at everyone.
So, everyone, lets count down together with me!
Oh oh oh!!!
The young members of the Xiao Clan cheered excitedly, and the elders of the Xiao Clan below the stage showed expectant expressions in their eyes.
Nalan Yanran and Qing Lin couldnt help but hold their breath, eagerly awaiting what would happen next, including the spirit, Yao Chen, who are inside the ring.
Three!
Three!!!
As Xiao Yan shouted a number, everyone below the stage shouted along in unison.
Two!
Two!!!
The smiles on the faces of the Xiao Clan members couldnt be any brighter. Everyones mood had reached its peak, and as Xiao Yan shouted the last number, they erupted in unison.
One!!!!
Swoosh!
Behind Xiao Yan, a streak of light shot up from behind the stage and soared into the sky!
When it reached the zenith of the night sky, all the Xiao Clan members had joyous smiles on their faces as they shouted along with the streak of light.
Bang!!!
Happy! New! Year!
The dazzling fireworks instantly illuminated the night sky of Wutan City, casting their reflection on everyones faces.
But it wasnt over yet!
Swoosh! Swoosh swoosh!!!
Several more streaks of light shot up into the night sky and burst open, imprinting the brilliant flames of hope deep in everyones hearts.
Nalan Yanran stared intently at the colorful display in the night sky, her eyes flickering continuously, as if she wanted to etch this scene deeply into her mind.
Yao Chen was taken aback, unintentionally revealing a smile.
Soul bodies arent supposed to be able to shed tears
Amidst the thunderous fireworks, a voice mixed in, and Yao Chen was the only one who could clearly hear it.
Senior Yao! Happy New Year!!!
In the ring, Yao Chen stared blankly at Xiao Yans cheerful smile, and in an instant, her heart was filled with infinite warmth.
Xiao Yans smiling face brought about a stir of emotions within Yao Chen for the first time in her life.
Since awakening by absorbing Xiao Yans Dou Qi and spending a long time together, Yao Chen couldnt help but utter some question in her heart.
Do I truly have any value compared to this disciple of mine?
Is my life really worth enough to be awakened once again?
Such thoughts echoed incessantly in Yao Chens heart, causing even some of her previously determined decisions to become uncertain.
Perhaps, I should continue to slumber, and perhaps, I shouldnt delude myself into thinking that I deserve to return to this world.
However, all these doubts about herself dissipated at this moment.
Thats right What am I thinking?
Why am I so sentimental? It doesnt seem like me~
Looking at Xiao Yans face, Yao Chen understood in her heart. A beautiful smile appeared on her face, and she softly responded in her heart.
(Ah~~~ Happy New Year~)
Yao Chens gaze turned once again to the still-blossoming fireworks.
Yes, theres no need to be confused.
Because I am still alive.
At this moment, a resolute thought emerged in Yao Chens heart.
Perhaps, I awakened again just to witness this fireworks display~
In her heart, Yao Chen silently whispered, looking at Xiao Yan with an irremovable tenderness in her eyes, softly calling out to him.
(Xiao Yan.)
(Hmm? Senior Yao, whats wrong?)
Xiao Yan asked in confusion, but Yao Chen smiled gently and said.
(Its a great blessing for me to be able to meet you)
Upon hearing Yao Chens words, Xiao Yan suddenly froze.
After a while, Xiao Yan slowly snapped out of his daze, and his gaze became even more gentle.
(As your disciple, it is also a blessing for me to be able to meet you.)
