"Happy New Year!!"
Festival cannons boomed, fireworks burst, and everyone gathered in the square to celebrate.
Inside the castle.
Catherine laughed and pushed Lu Yangzhang out: "Enough! I'm already retired here, you don't have to watch over me every day. You're a commander now, how can you be this clingy?"
Lu Yangzhang blushed slightly and said stiffly, "I won't! I just want to stay with you, what's the point of celebrating with others?"
"Get lost!" Collins scowled, slammed the door, and shouted again: "Don't eavesdrop, or I'll dock your pay next year!"
Inside, Catherine's teasing voice could be heard.
Lu Yangzhang touched her nose, all right then.
She turned around and left, standing on the open terrace on the third floor of the castle, looking up at the fireworks blooming in the night sky, a hint of loneliness flashed in her eyes.
