She hung up the phone.

Zhang Yuxi threw herself into Lin Feng's arms.

"Honey, you heard that, right?"

Lin Feng grunted in acknowledgment. "Actually, I think it's about time An Lan found herself a boyfriend."

"I don't know who the guy is, but An Lan has always been so forthright and carefree," he continued. "If someone can finally tame her, that would be a great thing!"

Zhang Yuxi nodded. "I think so too! I really hope that every couple finds their way to each other and their own happiness!"

Lin Feng smiled. "Let's get some sleep."

Zhang Yuxi lay on his chest. "I'm having a little trouble falling asleep."

Lin Feng moved closer. "Can't sleep?"

Zhang Yuxi jumped. "I can sleep, I can sleep!"

Satisfied, Lin Feng said, "Then sleep!"

...

「The next day.」

Due to the heavy snow, they spent the New Year holiday at home, doing little more than eating and sleeping. Following Lin Feng's lead, everyone gained over ten pounds!

During the holiday, he and Zhang Yuxi visited the family of the little boy they had lent money to at the hospital. The child was healthy and recovering well. His family tried to return the 10,000 yuan, but Lin Feng refused it. He wasn't short on money, and after he left, he secretly tucked 50,000 yuan into the child's toy box.

On the fifth day of the New Year, they bought plane tickets back to Meicheng.

What the children were most worried about leaving behind were their little babies. The mere mention of parting made them incredibly sad. They clung to Zhang Fuyong and Zhao Lizhen, endlessly reminding and instructing them to take good care of their "babies."

"Grandma, I'm leaving my babies in your care. You must take good care of them!"

"I'll come back to see them later. When I miss them, I'll video chat with them!"

With a very solemn expression, the eldest quadruplet handed her "babies" over to Zhao Lizhen.

The second quadruplet's "cuties" were also entrusted to them with great seriousness.

Then came the third and fourth quadruplets.

Zhao Lizhen felt a bit overwhelmed but was determined to fulfill her mission and raise them well.

The second quadruplet started crying, and the eldest silently shed tears as well. The third quadruplet said goodbye to his fruits, vegetables, and toys. The fourth quadruplet reluctantly stroked the ducklings. The little yellow ducklings had already started to change color, but they were still as cute as ever.

They boarded the plane and arrived in Meicheng that afternoon. Lin Dashan, his wife, and Lin Jie had been waiting for a long time.

When Zhou Cuilan saw her grandchildren emerge, she ran over happily, hugging one after another.

"Oh, my dear grandchildren, Granny has missed you to death!"

She asked the fourth quadruplet, "Did you miss Granny?"

The fourth quadruplet nodded, then added, "But right now, I miss my 'Ultramen' more."

Zhou Cuilan knew that his "Ultramen" referred to his chickens, ducks, and quails. She smiled and comforted him.

"It's alright. Your other grandma and grandpa will take very good care of them back there! You can go back and see them later. By then, they'll surely have grown much bigger! You have to trust your grandpa and grandma, right?"

The fourth quadruplet thought for a moment and nodded.

The children had grown so much since she last saw them. They felt heavy in her arms, and she couldn't carry them for long without getting tired.

Lin Feng walked over to Lin Jie, appraising his younger brother. "You seem more mature and steady. So, do you have a girlfriend yet?"

The question caught Lin Jie completely off guard.

Lin Feng understood. "So you do!"

For the New Year, Lin Feng stayed at the old villa instead of returning to Mingyue Villa. Many of the Lin Family's relatives were in Meicheng, which made the celebrations much livelier with all the visiting back and forth.

"It's all set. We'll go out for lunch tomorrow."

The next day, since the family had nothing else planned, they took the children for a stroll on their way to the restaurant. By the time they arrived, almost everyone was already there. The eldest aunt's family hadn't returned this year, but everyone else who could come had come.

Lin Xiaolan, heavily pregnant, sat at Lin Dahu's table looking quite haggard. Zhou Cuilan had told them about her situation with Song Yi the previous night. Song Yi and his ex-wife were still fighting over a house and had yet to finalize their divorce. As a result, Lin Xiaolan and Song Yi hadn't even registered their marriage.

The matter infuriated his Third Aunt, whose heart ached with anger, but she bit her tongue for the sake of her unborn grandchild. Lin Dahu had practically disowned his daughter; it was said that he hadn't spoken a word to her in a long time. His Third Aunt was the one mediating and relaying messages between them.

Although Lin Rui and Lin Xiaolan hadn't always gotten along in the past, she was his only younger sister. Seeing his sister so unhappy, he, as her only brother, had spared no effort to help out.

Lin Rui's driving school was booming and had made a good deal of money. He was no longer as self-righteous as he used to be; instead, he had become steady and humble. His relationship with Du Yan had also improved.

He smiled. "Lin Feng, you're here! We were just talking about you." Looking at the children, he exclaimed, "Wow, these little ones get cuter every day!"

Zhou Cuilan said with a smile, "You four, go wish Uncle Rui a happy and prosperous New Year so he'll give you red envelopes."

The four children obediently stood in a line. "Uncle Rui, Happy New Year! We wish you great prosperity!"

Lin Rui laughed heartily. "Good, good! Happy New Year to you all!"

Beside him, a smiling Du Yan handed over the red envelopes.

After receiving them, the children joyfully gave the red envelopes to Zhang Yuxi.

His Third Aunt laughed. "Why give them to your mom? Keep them! If you want to buy or eat something, you can use this money!"

The children paused, surprised by the idea that they could keep the money for themselves.

Lin Dahu quickly interjected, "Giving them to your mom is the right thing to do!" He then pulled out four more red envelopes. "Come, come, these are from your Third Grandpa."

He shot a glare at his wife. Once the children had walked away, he whispered, "Their family is rich. Don't teach the kids to spend money recklessly. What if you spoil them?"

His Third Aunt's eyes bulged. "How could that happen? They're still so young!"

Lin Dahu rolled his eyes. "So what if they're young? They're more sensible than Little Wen and the others."

At that, his Third Aunt fell silent.

Lin Xiaolan also took out four red envelopes. "Here."

Everyone was a little surprised that the usually stingy Lin Xiaolan was giving out red envelopes. However, they quickly concluded that she probably wanted Lin Feng to attend her child's full-month celebration, hundred-day banquet, and other future events.

Lin Jiajun and his wife had also prepared red envelopes for the children, as had Lin Daan.

Since everyone present was from the Lin family, the jokes flowed easily.

Lin Jiajun sized up Lin Feng. "Wow, our Director Lin is getting more and more handsome! Your whole vibe is different now, tsk tsk tsk! I heard you even bought the Chuxue Hotel. Man, I looked it up. A room there starts at five figures a night!"

Amid the laughter, Lin Feng sat down.

Lin Jiajun chuckled. "Long time no see! Tonight, nobody leaves until we're drunk!"

Lin Feng waved his hand. "I'm not drinking."

Lin Jiajun pouted. "Come on! You've made so much money, you have to have a drink!"

Lin Feng raised an eyebrow. "Are you sure you can outdrink me?"

Lin Jiajun grinned. "Let's give it a try."

Lin Feng gave him a dismissive look. "You can't win, so I'm not drinking."

Lin Jiajun grew displeased. "Are you looking down on me?"

Lin Feng laughed. "Yes, I am!"

As they were chatting, Zhang Yuxi was holding their second son.
