Chapter 32 New Year's Eve Gift of Snow

Gu Xingzhao knew that not only Lu Xingyao, but also other members of the Lu family shared this concern.

When faced with such a life-or-death dilemma, people are selfish and worry that their share will be given to others.

Although she was just helping Liu Xiangbai casually, the Lu family saw it differently; they believed she genuinely wanted to help the Liu family.

The Lu family members next to Lu Xingyao also heard Lu Xingyao's words, and suddenly the dumplings in their bowls lost their flavor. They couldn't eat them, and their faces were full of worry, wondering if one of their meals would be their last.

It's not that I want to possess the gods, but I can't help but feel this fear that the gods will be taken away from me.

Lu Xingyan remained silent for a long time. “Not everyone can get help when they encounter difficulties. Our Lu family has never worshipped any gods, yet we have had this extraordinary encounter. No matter what happens in the future, we should always be respectful and grateful.”

“Ah Yao, it is the intention of our ancestors. We, as mortal descendants, should not presume to know, much less attempt to interfere.”

In his view, being able to receive even a moment of help was already a great blessing.

Lu Xingyao was stunned for a moment, then felt ashamed. "Third Uncle is right. I have learned a lot."

Regardless of our ancestors' intentions, as a member of the Lu family, I should not have had those thoughts. I have overstepped my bounds and spoken out of turn.

Not only Lu Xingyao, but several other members of the Lu family standing nearby were also filled with shame for their earlier hostility towards the Liu family.

Gu Xingzhao couldn't help but glance at Lu Xingyan a few more times. He hadn't expected that Lu Xingyan's temperament was the most insightful among the Lu family's children. If it weren't for his physical limitations, he would be the one to support the Lu family after Lu Qing.

People feel pity and regret for things that are too beautiful but have flaws, and she was no exception.

Thinking that his attention to the Liu family might cause panic among the Lu family members, Gu Xingzhao went back to the supermarket, got a few more buckets of instant noodles, filled a few bottles with hot water, and put them in a bamboo basket.

"Lu Qing, I brought you some of the noodles and hot water you just ate. If you get hungry, you can make your own food. Tear open the lid, tear open the seasoning and sprinkle it in, pour in the hot water and let it soak for a while. Once the noodles are soft, you can eat them."

"Because the smell is quite strong, please be careful when you eat it."

Lu Qing was still eating dumplings when he heard his ancestor's words and quickly replied: "Thank you, ancestor."

Suddenly, someone exclaimed, "It's snowing!"

It turned out that someone had seen the snow falling from the sky outside through the torn window paper.

Immediately, many people put down their things and squeezed over, wanting to see the first snow of New Year's Eve. Only when people are well-fed and warmly dressed can the snow in the cold winter be beautiful.

Because the windows were nailed shut, to prevent the prisoners from escaping, they could only peer through the paper windows, but what they could see was very limited, and they were immediately quite frustrated.

Gu Xingzhao suddenly remembered that he was able to project ancient scenes into his home before, so by the same logic, could he now bring the outside scenes into his house?

[Back to host, that's fine.]

The next second, the room underwent a dramatic transformation. The surrounding walls gradually became transparent and eventually seemed to disappear. In the dim night sky, snowflakes fell slowly like goose feathers.

The people inside stared intently at what they were seeing, their mouths agape in astonishment.

Someone reached out their hand, only to find they could still touch the wall. "This...this..."

Lu Qing was even more shocked.

The shock this snow brought them was as profound as the thunder and lightning of the past! At some point, Shunyu, who had been hiding in a corner, raised her head, captivated by what she saw. Her hands gripped her sleeves tightly as she murmured to herself, "Is this the Lu family's deity...?"

The snowflakes disappeared after landing on the ground for a moment. Some people couldn't help but reach out to catch them, and snowflakes actually landed in their palms. They felt a cool sensation and were immediately shocked. It wasn't an illusion; they could really touch them!

Not to mention them, even Gu Xingzhao herself was shocked. She had no idea before that this projected object could actually be touched.

Inside the house, everyone watched in silence as the gods sent snow for them on New Year's Eve. All the suffering, grief, and injustice they had endured during this time seemed to be silently soothed by this New Year's Eve snow.

Lu Xingyan was particularly lost in thought. Due to his health condition, he always stayed indoors during the winter, accompanied by the stove. He had never been able to be in the snow like he was today, with a faint fragrance lingering in the air...

Is this what snow tastes like?
Gu Xingzhao walked up to him at some point, sat down next to him, took out a red envelope he had just picked up from the supermarket from his down jacket pocket, and stuffed it into Lu Xingyan's arms, saying, "Happy New Year."

Something was suddenly shoved into his arms, and the voice still rang in his ears. Lu Xingyan froze instantly... The god was right beside him.

Gu Xingzhao didn't actually put any money in the red envelope; he just found a safety buckle he used to wear and stuffed it in along with a red paper slip that said "Good health" on it.

"Sigh, we all have '行' in our names, how can that not be considered fate?"

Lu Xingyan was extremely nervous and dared not make a move.

Gu Xingzhao, however, assumed he hadn't noticed the thing in his arms, and reached out to touch the red envelope. "What's going on? Didn't you notice?"

Lu Xingyan then calmed himself down, pretending to notice the red envelope in his arms, but instead of opening it, he stuffed it into his pocket.

Gu Xingzhao was stunned: "?!"

Good heavens, something suddenly appeared in his arms, and he wasn't surprised at all; he even casually stuffed it into his arms.
If it were anyone else, or even myself, I'd probably jump up and scream, right?
Lu Qing's son is really steady in character.

However, what Gu Xingzhao didn't know was that Lu Xingyan was so nervous that he was covered in a fine layer of cold sweat, and his heart was pounding so fast that it wouldn't stop.

The divine pressure seemed too overwhelming for him.

The system detected Lu Xingyan's unusual physical condition and issued a warning: [Warning: The ward Lu Xingyan's physical condition is abnormal!]

Gu Xingzhao: "?"

She glanced at him sideways; his face was rosy, and he looked perfectly normal.

She opened the system panel and was almost shocked. The panel was full of red warnings, and her heart rate had already reached 160, and it was still accelerating!

Gu Xingzhao was quite frightened: How could this happen? Is he sick?
[Replying to the host, the ward may have sensed the host's presence, causing a sudden increase in heart rate due to tension. Alternatively, the ward may be experiencing various abnormal reactions due to an overly strong magnetic field emanating from the host, which the ward cannot withstand.]

Given the special physical condition of the person under guardianship, it is recommended that the host maintain distance and avoid putting excessive pressure on the person under guardianship, otherwise there is a risk of fainting.

Since the system had said so, Gu Xingzhao could only get up and silently walk away, thinking to himself: This damn system is really exaggerating.

Lu Xingyan might just be feeling unwell; how could it be because I was too close to him...?

Gu Xingzhao: You know, I am now a god. Who wouldn't want me to get closer?
This is an incredible blessing!
Lu Xingyao (screaming wildly): This blessing is for me! My third uncle is old and weak, he can't do it, but I can! I can do it! I'm young, I can handle it!

Good fortune comes, good fortune comes, good fortune comes from all directions!
Tickets, tickets, tickets, coming from all directions!
