Chapter 2995: New Year's Eve Encounter
"Dad, you really favor girls over boys," Yan Zhicheng joked with a smile.
Tian Chunxiang helped Wang Suya arrange the dishes for the New Year's Eve dinner, a satisfied smile on her face. She had been very happy these years, especially after marrying Yan Zhicheng. "Maixiang, be good. Don't bother Grandpa," she said gently.
Little Maixiang spoke seriously, "I'm not bothering Grandpa. I just want New Year money from him."
"Haha…" Yan Xiwan laughed loudly upon seeing this.
Yan Tieniu was not angry at all about Maixiang asking for money. Instead, she generously handed her a red envelope. Maixiang was overjoyed holding it.
After dinner, Yan Xiwan, Cheng Junnan’s family, Old Yuan, Professor Feng, and others made phone calls. This was a time for casual chat, not formal New Year greetings, which would happen on the first day of the lunar new year.
After finishing their calls, they started watching TV.
Suddenly, someone shouted, "Bad news! Someone got hurt by firecrackers."
Yan Xiwan and Ouyang Tianyun exchanged a glance and went out immediately.
The street was in chaos. With a slight scan of their divine sense, Yan Xiwan and Ouyang Tianyun realized quite a few people were injured.
Yan Xiwan hurried to her car to get her medical kit. Saving lives was the priority.
Ouyang Tianyun went to the scene to direct traffic and prevent stampedes.
The couple worked together perfectly. By the time the ambulance arrived, most injuries were stabilized. Only one person had eye damage requiring surgery. Thanks to Yan Xiwan’s perfect initial treatment, the hospital doctors could handle the surgery smoothly.
After watching the ambulance leave, Yan Xiwan and Ouyang Tianyun returned home.
Despite the incident, it was still a good New Year's Eve.
"Wife, let's go for a walk," Ouyang Tianyun invited Yan Xiwan.
It was New Year's Eve, so no shops were open. They just wanted to enjoy the festive atmosphere on the street.
Yan Xiwan and Ouyang Tianyun walked hand in hand slowly.
Although most shops were closed, they noticed one store still open.
"It's so strange that a shop is still open," Yan Xiwan said curiously.
"Let's go check," Ouyang Tianyun pulled Yan Xiwan toward it. The sign read 'One Family Tea House'.
"One Family Tea House?" Ouyang Tianyun’s expression looked a bit odd.
"What's wrong?" Yan Xiwan asked. "Is there something wrong with the name?"
"You'll know when we go in. I wonder if it's what I think," Ouyang Tianyun said, pulling Yan Xiwan inside.
The tea house was small, with only four tables and eight seats.
As they entered, a man and a woman sitting at the counter smiled at them.
Ouyang Tianyun pulled Yan Xiwan forward. "Greetings, Second Uncle and Second Aunt."
"Tianyun, long time no see," the Black Emperor said.
The Empress smiled, looking at Yan Xiwan. "You are one of the two daughters of the Venerable Yanluo and the Only Medical Emperor. The little princess of the Yanluo Realm."
"I am Yan Xiwan. Are you Uncle Black Emperor and Aunt Empress?" Yan Xiwan guessed, feeling they were familiar.
"Very smart," the Empress laughed. She walked out and pulled Yan Xiwan to sit aside. "Your mother didn't plan to have more children after your sister. If not for my natural energy, you wouldn't be born. Shouldn't you thank me?"
"Thank you, Auntie," Yan Xiwan said gratefully.
The Empress shook her head. "Call me Godmother." She added, "Your mother and I agreed long ago. When you were born, you would be my goddaughter."
"Godmother," Yan Xiwan corrected herself quickly.
"So good," the Empress said. She flipped her hand, and a cup of clear tea appeared. "Taste my special Five-Flavor Tea. It is good for you."
Yan Xiwan didn't hesitate. She took the cup, thanked her, and drank it all in one go.
As the tea went down, Yan Xiwan felt her limbs become very warm. A warm current flowed into her dantian. She seemed to experience life differently.
Birth, aging, sickness, and death felt instantly understandable.
She closed her eyes to experience this feeling.
Yan Xiwan poured another cup for Ouyang Tianyun. she thanked her and drank it.
Ouyang Tianyun had drunk Five-Flavor Tea before, so it usually had no effect. But now he had reincarnated. This body was not his past life's body, so the tea had a strong effect on him.
Seeing both of them close their eyes to comprehend, the Black Emperor spoke. "These two are truly a match made in heaven. Do you think the Immortal Emperor is too lucky? He found such a good daughter-in-law so easily."
"Who asked us not to have a suitable son? Otherwise, I would steal a Yan family girl for myself," the Empress joked.
The Black Emperor looked at her. "You could have another child if you wanted. I would cooperate."
"Go away. Carrying a child for hundreds of years is too troublesome. I prefer to scheme for others," the Empress said. She didn't think scheming for others was wrong.
The Black Emperor felt a bit regretful. With their looks, any child they had would be very beautiful.
"But Yan Aohan has two little cotton-padded jackets. I am so envious," the Black Emperor said with envy.
The Empress laughed. "But two naughty boys stole his little jackets. He is very angry."
Knowing Yan Aohan, the Empress knew Ouyang Tianyun would be tested in the future.
"Look, aren't they being tested now? The girl still has their seals on her," the Black Emperor said with a grin.
"Don't mess around," the Empress warned, knowing his look meant trouble.
The Black Emperor shrugged. "Don't worry. I won't mess around. I have a daughter too. I didn't want to marry her off either. So I understand this feeling now."
The Empress nodded. "Besides, after today, the girl can form her Nascent Soul. Then their seals will be useless."
The Black Emperor was stunned. she had just advised himself not to mess around, but she had already planned everything.
Yan Xiwan didn't know this. She only knew she had entered a profound state. This state let her experience life from birth to death, making her understand that life is not easy.
