Amid the boom of firecrackers, a year had come to an end. The spring wind wafted its warm breath to the wine.
On the New Year's Eve. The crackling of firecrackers filled every street; brilliant fireworks lit up the night sky.
A pair of mother and daughter chose not to spend the New Year's Eve at their relatives' house.
Instead, the two stayed home and watched the sky be filled with fireworks in the balcony.
"One year has passed again!"
Watching the fireworks explode, Zhang Manhua bemoaned this to her daughter.
"Yes… Time passes so quickly." Pei Ge nodded.
Just a year had passed, yet so many unexpected things had happened to her family.
For example, that annoying fellow became her boyfriend, her second uncle… turned out to be a bad person who had scammed them of their house years back, and… her father's company did not go bankrupt but was seized by someone.
When she thought of this, the smile on her face dimmed.
