Snowflakes began falling more densely in Capital City's night sky—it seemed like a heavy snowfall was on its way tonight.
In the dining room of the Ye family's villa, two more tables had been added. A crowd of elders gathered for a chat, making this the first Lunar New Year's Eve that so many high-ranking members joined together for a meal. And the reason behind this gathering was none other than Ye Chenfeng, an indicator of the great influence he had in these old timers' eyes.
The Ye family's patriarch, Ye Zhenhong, said with a sigh, "Chenfeng, it seems your reputation now surpasses even mine! These old fellows came all the way for you. It's been a while since the Ye family's Lunar New Year's Eve was this lively."
