The Rise of a Special Forces Soldier Abandoned by a Wealthy Family

Fortunately, the villa that Tengao chose was big enough.

There were three tables in the living room, and another table was set up in the tea room after it was tidied up.

Two tables were set up in another villa next door, which were prepared for the guards and bodyguards.

This was Zeng Linglong's arrangement—he said that today is the Spring Festival, and there is no distinction between social classes; everyone must eat the New Year's Eve dinner.

Moreover, with Lone Wolf and Ye Feng around, plus Xiao Ya's security system, there's no need for guards at all; we can eat and drink as we please.

Lone Wolf, Tyrannosaurus Rex, and Dragon Shadow team members sat at a table on the outer side.

They were like an iron wall, pistols tucked into their belts; any outsider who wanted to enter the hall would face their thunderous gunfire.

But they were also laughing, raising their glasses, and enjoying this rare reunion.

The lone wolf raised his glass and whispered to the tyrannosaurus beside him:

The Tyrannosaurus Rex grinned, revealing its white teeth:

"Happy New Year." The two wine glasses clinked together gently, making a crisp sound.

Teng Ao and the younger generation squeezed into another table.

Ye Feng, Tie Zhu, Xiao Ya, and their parents sat at one table.

Ye Feng sat between Ye Zhenkang and Zhou Simin. Ye Zhenkang kept putting food on his son's plate, while Zhou Simin looked at her son's thin face with heartache in her eyes.

Tie Zhu sat next to Li Yingxiu, who held her son's hand and asked him repeatedly, "Are you hungry?" "Are you tired?" Tie Zhu smiled sheepishly and answered again and again, "I'm not hungry or tired."

Xiaoya sat between Lin Shucheng and Su Wan. Su Wan hugged her daughter's shoulder, tears welling up in her eyes. Lin Shucheng kept pouring drinks for the mother and daughter.

Three families, three families that were once torn apart, are finally reunited to celebrate the Spring Festival.

The three elderly men, Zeng Linglong's grandmother, Zeng Sheng and his wife, Zeng Linglong, Yan Rugo, Anna, and Xue Yan sat at the main table.

Xue Yan was wearing a dark jacket, his hair was neatly combed, and he sat there as quietly as a statue.

But beside him lay a test tube containing a pale blue liquid—his New Year's gift for Zeng Linglong.

The latest batch of antiviral serum.

At Xue Yan's request, Zeng Linglong could only drink red wine and a small amount of beer.

He didn't haggle, obediently poured himself a glass of red wine, then stood up and personally poured a glass of white wine for the three old men.

The wine flows from the bottle, swirls in the glass, and its rich aroma spreads.

He then personally served them food, his movements gentle and respectful.

Finally, he obediently filled his grandmother Lin Fen's bowl with food: braised pork ribs, steamed sea bass, and garlic greens—every dish was one of his grandmother's favorites.

Grandma Lin Fen, her eyes blurred with tears, ate her food while choking back sobs and said:

"My grandson's food is so delicious, Grandma can't get enough! I wish I could keep watching my good grandson, keep watching him serve me food..."

The atmosphere at the scene was touching, warm, and happy.

Zeng Linglong stood up, holding a glass of red wine, and bowed respectfully to Zeng Rong and Lin Fen, his voice clear and solemn:

Wishing Grandpa and Grandma: May you be as evergreen as pine and cypress, and may your smiles always be bright, bringing you both happiness and longevity.

Then he toasted Yan Fushan and Ronnie with a glass of wine each, his voice equally solemn:

Wishing both grandfathers a long and healthy life, and happiness and fulfillment.

"Hahaha--"

Grandpa Yan happily downed his drink, wiped his mouth, and his eyes were full of mischief:

"Little Long, if you could help your grandfather hold his great-grandson soon, we old folks would be the happiest and most content!"

Grandpa Yan's words instantly brought the atmosphere to a climax.

The group began toasting each other, and laughter, clinking glasses, and blessings filled the air.

Zeng Lingyu led the three Zeng sisters, Zeng Yuan and Zeng Ke, to Ru Ge and Anna. The three bowed slightly and said in unison:

"Wishing both my sisters-in-law a speedy marriage with my brother and the arrival of their precious children!"

The three girls' words made the three old men laugh heartily, while Ru Ge and Anna blushed and lowered their heads, not daring to look at anyone.

Yan Ruge's fingers twisted together under the table, while Anna bit her lip, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

Old Ronnie put down his glass and cleared his throat.

His gaze swept over Zeng Rong and Yan Fushan, his voice steady and solemn:

"General Zeng, we will soon become in-laws."

I know about your country's marriage laws and customs, I know that the Zeng family is a military family, and I know about the relationship between the Zeng family and the Yan family.

Therefore, I came here this time with a firm decision and sincerity.

He paused, his gaze falling on Zeng Rong's face:

"The marriage you arranged for Xiaolong will not be interfered with or opposed by my Luo family."

"Anna wouldn't need any status in the Dragon Kingdom."

"But after Xiaolong marries Ruge in the Dragon Kingdom, he will go to the Beautiful Country to marry Anna under the identity of Lingye."

"I had already arranged another identity for Xiaolong in the United States—it was prepared when he was at Harvard University."

"Therefore, in the United States, Anna is Ling Ye's true wife, and their marriage is legal in the United States."

"I, old Ronnie, can certainly do that."
