Chapter 286 - Chapter 261: Catching Up

It felt like she had only just dozed off when she heard a clamor of cheerful noise and laughter from downstairs—car horns honking, New Year's greetings being shouted, and firecrackers and fireworks popping and crackling all over the place. She figured it wasn't just the Gu family crowd; kids from other relatives and friends' families must have arrived too.
