872 Fulfilling the Daughters' Wishes

Yan Xi drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp. The mellow aroma of the wine mixed with a hint of intoxication and warmth spread from her throat to her cheeks.

The look in his eyes, which originally contained a hint of anger, now shone as brightly as starlight.

When she put down the wine glass, her fingertips gently rubbed the rim of the glass, as if it was not an ordinary glassware, but a token of her dream of becoming a movie queen.

"That's right."

Chen Mo looked at her serious yet somewhat reckless expression, and the smile in his eyes became even more intense.

He reached out and picked up a piece of non-spicy sweet and sour pork ribs with chopsticks and put it in her bowl.

"Eat well first, so you have the energy to think about filming. Otherwise, when you win Best Actress next year and reporters ask you about your secret to staying in shape, you can't just say it's drinking red wine on an empty stomach."

"Pfft... who would say that? I'm impressed."

Yan Xi couldn't help laughing and rolled her eyes at him, but still put the ribs into her mouth obediently.

The sweet and sour taste instantly neutralized the slight astringency of the red wine. As she chewed, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but secretly curl up.

She looked at Chen Mo and asked, "By the way, Mr. Chen, are we going to have fireworks for the New Year?"

As soon as Yan Xi said this, the table was silent for a few seconds, and then there were voices of agreement one after another.

The first ones to get excited were the little ones in the baby chairs.

The older Junyi seemed to understand. She swung her short legs, clapped her chubby hands, and called out in a baby voice:

"Fireworks! Fireworks!"

Lulu next to him also nodded, her round eyes full of anticipation, and her little mouth muttered "bling bling", which made everyone laugh.

Chen Mo looked at the lively scene, his eyes full of tenderness. He put down his chopsticks and deliberately kept the conversation a secret:

"Why, our big star also likes to set off fireworks?"

"Who says big stars can't like fireworks?"

Yan Xi pouted and said:

"Fireworks are what really makes the New Year feel festive! Mr. Chen, please arrange something for us."

As she spoke, she secretly glanced at Bai Ruoxi and Su Qingxue beside her, as if looking for allies.

Bai Ruoxi and Su Qingxue understood instantly, nodded with a smile, and said softly:

"I like setting off fireworks, too. It adds to the festive atmosphere of the New Year."

Su Qingxue put down the soup bowl in her hand, a trace of nostalgia flashed in her eyes:

"I haven't set off fireworks in a long time. The only memory I have is when I was very young at my grandparents' house."

Chen Mo looked at them and smiled.

"Since my daughters want to set off fireworks so much, then as a father, I must fulfill this little wish."

Yan Xi rolled her eyes: "..."

Su Qingxue calmly: "..."

Bai Ruoxi: “…”

Chen Mo smiled and continued:

"In fact, they've already prepared it. It's right here in our own square. Let's go and set it off together after dinner."

"Not only are there ordinary fireworks, but there are also those that form patterns. I guarantee they will dazzle you."

"Really? That's great!"

Yan Xi became excited instantly, and the slight feeling of drunkenness from the red wine seemed to have dissipated a lot.

"Hurry up and eat!"

"No hurries."

Song Qingdai reached out and gently patted the back of her hand, speaking softly.

"You just drank some red wine. Eat something first to make up for it, or you'll feel dizzy later."

"Shall we go too?"

"Let's all go together."

"..."

Half an hour later, everyone had eaten and drunk their fill and finally raised their glasses.

"cheers!!"

As everyone walked out of the restaurant, the night wind blew with a bit of the chill of the winter night, but it did not dampen everyone's enthusiasm in the slightest.

The headquarters square has long been kept clean and tidy, and the red lanterns hanging around it are emitting warm light in the night.

Dozens of boxes of packaged fireworks were neatly placed in the middle of the wide square.

"Wow! So many fireworks!"

"Fireworks~"

Little Junyi cried in a baby voice and tried to break free from Chen Mo's hand and run to the square.

Chen Mo held her and put her next to Su Yun.

"Don't run, stay with mom."

At this time, Yan Xi, Su Qingxue, Bai Ruoxi, Daisy and others were already choosing fireworks.

"Mom, I want to let go too."

Nini whispered to Yang Tao.

Chen Mo smiled and said, "Nini, go ahead."

Nini is almost six years old. She moves very fast with her short legs and looks like a little penguin in her down jacket.

"Run slowly, the cobblestones are slippery, don't fall."

"..."

"Mr. Chen, what kind of fireworks are these?"

Yan Xi called out to Chen Mo and poked the top fireworks box with her finger:

Chen Mo walked over, bent down and patted the dust off the fireworks box:

"Good taste. This one is called 'Milky Way Falling from the Sky'. I'll let you order this first later."

"real?!"

Yan Xi's eyes lit up instantly, and she immediately stood up and patted the dust off her hands, not forgetting to raise her chin towards Su Qingxue.

"Qingxue, look, I'll order first!"

Su Qingxue crossed her arms and smiled: "Why are you in such a hurry? There will be plenty of fireworks later, and no one will compete with you for them."

Chen Mo picked up a small handheld firework and handed it to his sister-in-law Daisy:

"This is safe, why don't you try it?"

Daisy was eager to try, and Chen Mo ignited her.

She stared at the golden sparks, first shrinking back, then curiously leaning forward. The sparks fell into her eyes, like stars. "Wow... So beautiful! Look, Stella!"

Stella stood beside her and picked up a light, and the sparks of the two sisters overlapped in the night.

Pei Yu, Xia Wanqing, Li Wei, Bai Yuqing and others also joined in.

After all, it’s been a while since I set off fireworks, so I still want to play some.

The atmosphere is good tonight.

"By the way, Yu, take a picture of me and I'll post it on Weibo."

“I’ll take one too.”

"I want, too……"

Women, no matter where they go, become interested in taking photos.
