"Hey, Susan, look what I brought!"
As they were talking, Lin Feng rushed in from outside.
He held two waist-high lobsters, one in each hand.
Susan's eyes lit up with surprise; she recognized them immediately.
"It's the giant lobsters from Owen Planet!"
Indeed, Lin Feng had made a trip to Owen Planet and brought back some seafood.
These couldn't be found on Earth!
Susan hadn't forgotten the taste of these behemoths and thought she wouldn't be able to eat them again for a long time after leaving Owen Planet!
Seeing the two giant lobsters made Susan's mouth water. Was Lin Feng scouring the universe for ingredients?
Without giving Susan a chance to ask, he tossed the lobsters into the kitchen and flew out again.
About ten minutes later.
"They're here, they're here! The firecrackers are here too!"
Lin Feng, carrying two large boxes, rushed back in again.
"Lin Feng's specially custom-made super sky-high firecrackers, they can shoot up to ten thousand meters!" Lin Feng said with a grin, patting the large boxes.
Lin Feng hadn't touched these things for many years. Since he had the ability now, he wanted to make the loudest and brightest firecrackers!
Of course, he made these himself and conveniently sent a box to Tony.
He had asked Tony, and it was permissible to set them off in New York.
But it was a bit of a redundant gesture. Every year around this time, there were many activities on Wall Street, and the lively sound of firecrackers was certainly part of it!
That wasn't all! After putting down the firecrackers, Lin Feng, from goodness knows where, pulled out a bright red padded jacket and excitedly went over to Lin Jili.
Lin Jili clearly didn't know the danger that was approaching. She just looked at Lin Feng, who had suddenly appeared before her, with a puzzled expression.
"Here, Jili, put this on!"
Before Lin Jili could react, Lin Feng quickly put it on her.
Lin Jili was dumbfounded, suddenly being dressed in a large padded jacket for no reason!
She looked down, her face gradually contorting.
"What is this!"
A bright red padded jacket, with patterns on it that were inexplicable to her!
It looked very festive, but there was an indescribable down-to-earth feeling about it.
Lin Jili felt like she looked like a little red bear after putting it on!
"Wear it! It's called festive!"
With that, Lin Feng took out two smaller padded jackets, more than a size smaller, and went to 'harass' the two black cats.
Lin Jili was numb. She wanted to take it off, but found that Lin Feng had buttoned it up exceptionally tightly...
She wanted to use more force but was afraid of tearing it and getting spanked by Lin Feng, so she could only look to Susan for help.
Susan was trying hard to suppress her laughter.
"Don't laugh, Sister Susan, help me take it off!" Lin Jili was on the verge of tears.
Wearing this, Lin Jili didn't dare to go out on the street.
She didn't remember Lin Feng's hometown having such traditions, nor this practice.
Lin Jili's little head was filled with confusion.
Susan waved her hand.
"Take it off for what? It looks so good!"
"How do they say it? Oh yes, festive!"
"Not only festive, but warm too!" Susan couldn't help but laugh again after a few words.
As she was laughing, a padded jacket fell from the sky and landed on her with a 'duang'.
"Susan, you have one too!" Lin Feng happily put a jacket on Susan.
Susan immediately stopped laughing and looked up, stunned.
"No, no..."
'Duang!'
Lin Feng also put two jackets on Wanda.
Wanda was equally close to tears. She had been trying to be invisible, but in the end, she couldn't escape!
"You're all dressed now, I'm going to find Martina!" Lin Feng excitedly ran out again...
"Hey..."
Susan's mouth opened and closed, wanting to say something, but Lin Feng had already run far away.
She numbly looked down at Lin Jili.
The little one was imitating her by trying to suppress a laugh.
Seeing Susan notice her, Lin Jili immediately put on an innocent expression.
"Oh, Sister Susan, this color really suits you! It looks incredibly beautiful!"
"Really?" Susan forced a smile, grabbed Lin Jili's little cheek, and started to pull.
For a moment, the villa was filled with laughter...
After a bit of playful struggle, Susan ultimately didn't take off the bright red padded jacket.
After all, Lin Feng had specifically prepared it, and after wearing it for a while, once you accepted the situation, it felt quite peculiar.
At least, it was really warm, wasn't it...
Soon, time came to New Year's Eve.
No one escaped the fate of being dressed in red padded jackets by Lin Feng. Even Lin Feng himself wore a red outfit.
The entire villa was also decorated by Lin Feng in a fiery red hue.
Don't ask why everything was red. Lin Feng simply felt that this color was particularly festive.
He wouldn't normally wear red, but this was a holiday limited edition! Then it was perfectly fine!
In the morning, the family went out for some last-minute shopping.
In the malls, many holiday-themed goods and gifts were on display.
Above the goods, there were even banners with Chinese captions!
The malls were also much more crowded than usual, and many oriental faces could be seen shopping.
Everyone's faces were beaming with smiles. Even if they didn't know each other, they would greet each other or nod with a smile.
After all, being in a foreign land during this festival, encountering fellow countrymen always led to more friendliness and closeness.
After noon, Susan and Wanda started preparing the New Year's Eve dinner in the kitchen.
Mainly, there were too many dishes, and if they started preparing now, they would finish just in time for the meal.
Meanwhile, Lin Feng had already turned on the TV early, tuned to the Chinese channel, and was waiting for the Spring Festival Gala to begin.
"I say, when can we take these off?" Wanda complained with a dejected face.
To be honest, they were a bit too thick and hindered movement.
When they went out today, she felt like many people were looking at them strangely.
However, people with the same dark eyes and black hair as Lin Feng cast friendly glances at them.
Susan smiled and nudged her with her shoulder.
"Tomorrow is the first day of the lunar new year, so it should be fine after tomorrow."
"But I don't quite understand, there are many red things, why wear such thick ones? It's not cold in the villa..."
Susan's confusion lay here.
She recalled the Tang suits and cheongsams she had seen with Lin Feng in the past.
Those outfits also had red colors, and she didn't know why Lin Feng chose this particular item in the end.
"Perhaps, because he was too excited, he didn't pay attention to this detail," Wanda said, tapping a shrimp shell with a small hammer, and then replied.
Susan felt that it seemed to be the case; Lin Feng was more excited than in previous years.
"Never mind, as long as he's happy. It's rare to see him so happy," Susan shrugged.
Red padded jackets, this feeling wasn't bad.
"Come on, come on, Susan! Strike this pose!"
No sooner had they mentioned Lin Feng than he dashed into the kitchen, pulled Susan, who was still busy, and wanted her to strike a pose.
Susan didn't react at all; the shrimp in her hand was snatched away, and then a mobile phone was thrust into her hand.
