While this year's celebration dinner wasn't the most elaborate, this was something Yu Dong hadn't experienced in a very long time, so it made her feel nostalgic.

The table only held a huge bowl of stewed chicken and some delicious braised fish on the side. With one glance Yu Dong could tell that these were her father's creations.

"Dad, did you cook today?" Yu Dong knew that while her father was good at it, he doesn't like cooking.

"We have Xia Feng to thank for this, Dad specially went out and bought some fresh fish for him." Yu Song waggled his eyebrows at his sister.

"Cough!" Father Yu spluttered as he drank.

Xia Feng felt touched. He picked up his glass, poured some alcohol and stood up: "Thank you uncle, let me pour you a cup."

"Don't you get drunk easily?" Father Yu said.

"I'll drink less."

At this, Father Yu nodded and touched his cup with Xia Feng's.


At this time, Mother Yu placed the last pot of soup onto the table, and the family sat together and happily started eating their New Year's Eve dinner.

During the meal, Yu Song took the opportunity to fill Xia Feng's cup with alcohol and Xia Feng accepted it one after the other. Although the food helped, after a few cups, the Xia Feng with such tiny alcohol tolerance became dazed.

Father Yu was obviously in a celebratory mood, and after a few more cups, became talkative.

"Xia Feng, you be good to my daughter." Father Yu pointed towards Xia Feng.

"Uncle, you can be rest assured, I will properly be together with Yu Dong." Xia Feng shook his head in an attempt to clear his dulled mind.

"Our family's Dong Dong, not to boast, is the best in the village." Father Yu started to count his fingers, "clever, filial and beautiful."

"But not gentle!" Yu Song, who had also drunk a good amount of alcohol, butted in.

"You shut up!" Father Yu glared at his son.

"No, Yu Dong is a very gentle girl." Xia Feng placed a hand on his chest and laughed, "Every time I see her, my heart warms."

"I protected her for twenty-two years, and now she's going to be in your family." Father Yu said, somewhat unhappy.

"Uncle, I'll be protecting her in the future." Xia Feng patted his chest in assurance.

"Who's protecting who, when my sister was a kid she was famous for being such a manly girl," Yu Song raised his arms and imitated a boxer, "She ruled during her primary and middle school days, ah."

"So strong?" Xia Feng mumbled, his head tilted to the side.


"Yeah, so you be careful, you dare hurt my sister, you'll have to fight me, then go for a round with her." Yu Song's words started to slur, becoming an incoherent mess.

"Alright!" Xia Feng had no idea what was said and could only laugh in response.

"Dong Dong, she's always had a one-track mind. She would fiercely protect the people she cared about. Normally such a strong girl isn't easy to hurt, " Father Yu knew his daughter best, "But if its someone she cares about that hits her, she'll just take the punches silently."

Recommended for you"So...Xia Feng, please take care of her when I'm not around." Father Yu looked at Xia Feng, his eyes sober and lucid.
