Chapter 204: Chapter 204: Where you are, there is my happiness!_1

Shen Tianbo watched her with eyes full of emotion, suddenly reached out with both arms, and hugged Shen Tianxing tightly, choking up as he said, "Xiaoxing, we all love you very much too! It’s exactly because of this love that your third brother doesn’t want to see you struggle too much for our sake. We don’t want to become your burden. Do you understand?"

Shen Tianxing gently patted his back. "I understand, third brother, I truly understand the affection you all hold for me. I will do what I can, and I definitely won’t let anything happen to myself."

Shen Tianbo let out a light sigh. "I know you always have the right idea. Alright, I won’t say anymore. Just remember, we will always, always stand by your side. The moment you look back, you will see us!"

Hearing his warm words, Shen Tianxing’s eyes also brimmed with a mist of tears, and she nodded vigorously at him. "Third brother, I know, I do..."

Shen Tianbo let go of her.

On his handsome face, his trademark playful smile returned. "Alright, let’s go back. Get ready, we’re going to set off fireworks soon!"

Shen Tianxing also smiled and replied, "Alright."

Every New Year’s Eve, the Shen Family would set off a grand half-hour long fireworks show to ring in the new year, delighting not just their own family but also sharing joy and happiness with the common folk in the surrounding areas.

The fireworks were beautiful, although they vanished in a moment. Yet they left behind their most beautiful instant in people’s hearts, forever reminding them of that astonishing and memorable beauty in that fleeting moment.

Before the strike of midnight on New Year’s Day, Shen Tianxing’s phone was incessantly buzzing with New Year blessing messages from relatives, friends, and classmates.

Dugu Zixi’s call came through at 59 minutes past the hour.

Afterwards, he monopolized her phone, not letting her hang up.

They chatted all the way until midnight arrived. After he wished her "Happy New Year," he reluctantly hung up the phone.

In fact, he really wanted to be by her side, to set off firecrackers with her, watch the fireworks together, and count down to welcome the new year.

Dugu Zixi decided that once he entered the space, he would give her another surprise.

Listening to the sounds of firecrackers, fireworks, and the cheerful laughter around her, Shen Tianxing felt as if she could sense the flowers in her heart blooming with happiness and joy.

After staying up for New Year’s Eve and setting off the fireworks, everyone, tired from the day’s activities, said goodnight and returned to their rooms to rest.

Shen Tianxing went back to her own room. After washing her face in the bathroom, she flashed into the space.

By the time she arrived, Dugu Zixi was already there waiting for her.

As soon as he saw Shen Tianxing enter, he happily took her hand. "Come, Xiaoxing, let’s go set off fireworks and watch the display that belongs just to the two of us."

Shen Tianxing was led by him to the lakeside of the space, where she saw that the beach was already lined up with a massive array of fireworks, arranged neatly in rows, which looked incredibly spectacular.

Shen Tianxing counted carefully; they were in rows of nines both horizontally and vertically—the implication of his arrangement must be a wish for the two of them to be together forever!

Dugu Zixi waved his hand, casting a spell to change a portion of the space’s sky to the dark starry night mode.

Then, he had Shen Tianxing sit beside him while he was in charge of casting the Fireball Technique. The small point of fire fell on the fuse of the fireworks, igniting the successive rows in an instant.

With a "bang"...

The beautiful fireworks burst open in the sky in an instant.

One after another, blossoming in the night sky, entering Shen Tianxing’s eyes—so beautiful, so very beautiful...

Shen Tianxing watched the figure busily moving for her pleasure, her eyes brimming with a deep love, and a happy smile curled up on her beautiful lips.

This was their own fireworks display, so beautiful and so delightful!

After all the fireworks had been set off, Dugu Zixi cast a Clean Technique on himself before returning to Shen Tianxing’s side, taking her hand and asking, "Xiaoxing, did you like it?"

Shen Tianxing nodded vigorously and leaned in to kiss him, smiling as she said, "I liked it! I liked it very much! Zixi, thank you for bringing me so much joy and happiness!"

Dugu Zixi held her and gently kissed her forehead, murmuring softly, "I should be the one saying thank you. Thank you for being by my side in past lives and in this one. Xiaoxing, where you are, there is my happiness!"

The two held each other tightly, not speaking for a long while, as they let the warm and happy aura envelop their hearts and bodies.

The second day of the new year.

Dugu Zixi carried big and small packages as he went to the Shen Family to greet his future in-laws for the new year.

Dugu Zixi’s conduct could be described as perfect, beyond reproach.

Even Shen Wenru, who wanted to find a fault with him to prevent his daughter from marrying him, could find none.

He could only concede in his heart to this nearly perfect future son-in-law!

After the happy new year celebrations, everyone’s lives returned to normal: students went back to school, and workers returned to their jobs.

Once Shen Tianxing arranged the work at the Xingxi Charity Foundation, she and Dugu Zixi traveled directly from the space to Capital City.

This time, she came to resolve the strange occurrences afflicting her second cousin, Shen Tianzhi.

Prior to her visit, she had warned Shen Tianzhi about his recent spate of bad luck and run-ins with petty folks, telling him to be careful.

Shen Tianzhi, gentle and refined, handsome and elegant, was also a person with meticulous thoughts.

He had been feeling that things were not going well recently, as if something was amiss all over, yet he could not pinpoint the problem.

When he received a call from Shen Tianxing and heard her warning, and that she would come personally to Capital City to help him resolve the issue, Shen Tianzhi’s heart skipped a beat.

He, like the rest of the Shen Family, was well aware of Xiaoxing’s capabilities, and he knew that an issue serious enough for her personal attention could not be trivial.

Shen Tianzhi could not help but suspect: who wanted to harm him, and why? Was it because he was blocking someone’s path?

Although Shen Tianzhi wished to investigate, Shen Tianxing had cautioned him to refrain from acting, and to wait for her arrival.

Shen Tianzhi could only suppress the urgency and rage within him, continuing to commute to his job as usual, showing no signs of distress.

During this time, Shen Tianxing calculated Shen Tianzhi’s safety every day.

Only after confirming that he wouldn’t face any major dangers did she spend the Lantern Festival at home. Then she came to Capital City to help him resolve the issue.

Upon arriving in Capital City, Shen Tianxing declined Dugu Zixi’s company and went alone to the military district where Shen Tianzhi was.

The main reason was that Dugu Zixi’s face was too recognizable; in Capital City, there were probably few who did not know the Dugu family’s young master.

If Shen Tianxing took him along to visit Shen Tianzhi, they might scare off the person targeting Shen Tianzhi before she could even act.
