Tan Ron’s heart ached for her niece, who was not related to her by blood. Her childhood was tragic, and her marriage was not smooth-sailing when she grew up. Now that she had finally started her own career, Tan Rou sincerely hoped that Tan Ming could make a name for herself.

This gift emphasized Tan Ron’s beautiful blessings to Tan Ming. Its value was not reflected in its cost.

Tan Ming didn’t decline anymore and accepted the gift. Her eyes were gentle as she replied with a faint smile, “Then I’ll borrow your blessings. 1 hope to win the Best Actress Award as soon as possible!”

Tan Rou stretched out her arm and hugged Tan Ming’s shoulder. “That’s right!”

Tan Ming looked at Tan Ron’s house and realized that there seemed to be only the two of them. “Aunt, you didn’t hire a maid?”

Tan Rou shook her head. “This house isn’t big. It’s only a two-story bungalow. 1 hired a part-timer to come twice a week.”

Tan Ming mentioned Tan Ron’s boyfriend, Andrew, and asked with concern, “Aunt, are you and Uncle Andrew in a long-distance relationship now?”

Tan Rou sighed helplessly. “Yes, but he will come to China to spend the Spring Festival with me.”

A long-term separation was not a good thing. It could easily affect the relationship between couples. Tan Ming continued to ask, “Then what will you do in the future? You went overseas after the New Year. Are you planning to develop your career there completely?”

Tan Rou replied, “I’m inclined to return to China to develop, but there are many factors that have to be considered. Therefore, the focus of my current development is still overseas. I’ll probably come back occasionally.”

Tan Ming nodded in understanding. Then, she told Tan Rou about Andrew recommending her for opportunities. “Every time, it’s the brand’s publicity department who contacts my manager. I don’t have Uncle Andrew’s contact number either. 1’11 have to trouble you to thank him for me.”

Tan Rou said nonchalantly, “Alright, don’t take it to heart. These are just words to him.”

Tan Ming could tell that Andrew’s identity was definitely not simple, but she knew her limits and did not ask about anything. The two of them chatted for a while more. After more than half an hour, Tan Ming left Tan Ron’s house.

When it was time to return to Xiyun, the family slept until they woke up naturally. Then, they slowly set off to the airport and boarded AnAn Air. They even had a comfortable meal on the plane and watched a comedy movie together. When the movie ended, they had reached their destination.

According to tradition, on New Year’s Eve, everyone ate Laba congee. As the saying went, after the eighth, it would be New Year’s. Everything that needed to be used for the New Year had to be prepared from today onwards.

Especially this year when Tan Ming was found. This was the first real reunion in 23 years.

Li Mei insisted on dragging Tan Ming to the mall outside to shop. “Children have to wear brand new clothes for New Year’s.”

Tan Ming smiled helplessly and said, “How can there be a 26-year-old child? Besides, I haven’t even worn a few sets of clothes this season in my closet. There’s no need to buy anymore. It’s such a waste of money.”

Li Mei said in disagreement, “No matter how old you are, you’re still my daughter in my eyes. So you’re still a child.”

“Besides, the clothes you usually buy are different from the ones you buy now. This is the New Year. I have to buy you a red dress to celebrate and get rid of the bad luck. 1 hope that after this year, you can welcome good luck next year and get a divorce smoothly.”

As long as there were good signs and meanings, it seemed as if everything would be different. It could only be said that this represented people’s beautiful hopes for the future.

Ever since Tan Ming went missing, every time she saw other families reuniting during the new year, Li Mei would smile on the surface, but she was not excited at all in her heart. It should have been her, the mistress, who was in charge of the preparations for the new year at home, but because she was not in the mood to deal with it, she left it to the maids.

Now that Li Mei had found her daughter, she was full of energy. Jiang Hai heard the conversation between the mother and daughter from the side. It was rare for his wife to plan well, so he said to Tan Ming, “You’re usually busy with work. Take the opportunity to shop with your mother during the new year to relax.”

Tan Ming looked at Li Mei’s excited and expectant expression and did not want to dampen the mood. She nodded and agreed.

In the last week before the Spring Festival, Tan Ming and Li Mei began to get busy. They had to prepare all kinds of food and necessities. Firstly, they had to entertain the guests who came to visit during the Spring Festival. Secondly, they had to prepare some New Year gifts for when they visited their relatives and friends..
