There's really something wrong with this online game plan

Chapter 287 The New Year

New Year's Eve.

night.

After eating a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner, I chatted with the old lady and Zhang Youjie about homework for nearly two hours.

The old lady is sleepy.

Lin Yao sent her into the room, then returned to her own room, opened the window, looked outside while breathing.

Because it is a town.

Fireworks and firecrackers are not banned here during Chinese New Year.

It will be quite noisy outside, and occasionally there will be a muffled sound of fireworks rising into the air and exploding.

However, this is still a small fight.

After twelve o'clock in the morning, it is the busiest time.

Because there is a tradition of worshiping heaven and earth at zero o'clock and celebrating the new year.

At that time, every household will replace wine with tea and worship heaven and earth.

Then set off firecrackers and fireworks.

At that time, the whole town will be filled with the smell of gunpowder.

Lin Bing is not at home this year.

The old lady couldn't stay up all night.

Therefore, the task of worshiping morning tea should be completed by the two sisters and Zhang Youjie.

This is for Lin Yao.

Quite novel.

Because her hometown in her previous life did not have such a custom.

But the memory is very deep...

Why do worship not use wine but tea.

Lin Yao didn't know this.

But in her memory, the happiest moment of the year when she was a child was indeed when New Year's Eve arrived at twelve o'clock.

Look around.

There are brilliant fireworks in all directions.

She always has a feeling that she is standing in the center of the world...

Ok.

Kind of like a sophomore.

Lin Yao looked at the fireworks that exploded once again, recalling what happened when she was a child, she couldn't help but smile.

"Xiao Yao?"

At this time.

Lin Xi pushed open the door, saw Lin Yao standing by the window, and called her softly.

"what happened?"

Lin Yao came back to her senses, and looked back at Lin Xi who was standing at the door.

Because back home.

Lin Xi changed into an outfit with a very homely atmosphere, light blue jeans and a white sweater, with gentle curves and undulating, very suitable.

"I couldn't find you, I thought you ran out by yourself."

Lin Xi gently closed the door, came to Lin Yao, and stood by the window with her, looking at the night sky and the occasional fireworks.

"How is that possible? It's freezing outside."

Lin Yao flicked her ponytail lightly, and leaned towards Lin Xi to keep warm: "I feel cold standing by the window now, look at the wind..."

"You didn't say that when you were a kid."

Lin Xi turned his head and felt cold when the cold wind blew him.

But she is much more straightforward.

He hugged his sister directly.

Immediately it felt much warmer.

"What happened when I was a child?" Lin Yao found that it was really warm like this, so she didn't resist, but asked a little curiously.

Lin Xi showed an expression of reminiscence, and said with emotion: "Forcibly pulled me to pay New Year's greetings... But you are afraid alone, so let me lead the way. It's freezing cold, I will walk in front, and you will pull my clothes behind, command Where am I going..."

"Forehead……"

Lin Yao recalled it for a while, and it seemed that such a thing really happened. At that time, she shrank behind Lin Xi and used her to block the wind.

So crumbly.

"It was so good to be carefree at that time."

Lin Xi hugged Lin Yao tightly, rubbed her hair lightly, and sighed.

Lin Yao smiled, feeling a little nostalgic, and suddenly said: "Don't talk about that time, why don't we go out for a walk now?"

Lin Xi was slightly taken aback: "Huh?"

……

10 minute later.

After Lin Yao greeted Zhang Youjie, she pulled Lin Xi out of the house.

The two of them were prepared, they specially added a coat and a scarf.

But the cold winter wind was more bitter than expected.

The two just went out.

I couldn't help shivering.

"So stupid."

Looking at the bleak courtyard, Lin Yao felt that she had done something stupid.

"Indeed." Lin Xi turned around and helped Lin Yao tighten the scarf, and then suggested: "Why don't you go back?"

"No, it's all out..."

Lin Yao struggled for a moment, shook her head lightly, took Lin Xi's hand, and led her out of the house into the biting cold wind.

There is no shelter outside.

The wind is getting stronger.

This made the two sisters hold hands even tighter.

"It's so cold, I don't know how we persisted when we were young."

Lin Yao barely adapted to the change of indoor and outdoor temperature, took Lin Xi's hand out of the yard, came outside, and began to wander aimlessly.

Lin Xi looked at his younger sister's back, feeling a little dazed, and whispered, "Probably because I was playful at that time."

"Am I playful?"

"Um……"

"..."

"but."

Lin Xi pursed his lips, and suddenly whispered: "Now, you can stand in front of my sister. Back then you had to grab my clothes to come out, but now you can hold my sister's hand to shield me from the wind. "

"So, are you moved?" Lin Yao turned around, took Lin Xi's hand with the other hand, and asked with a smile while stepping back.

"I'm touched... don't fall down."

Lin Xi nodded, and then couldn't help but whispered, a little worried.

Lin Yao smiled again: "Don't worry, how could I... oops."

The rhetoric is not over yet.

Because I didn't see the way.

She tripped and staggered.

Lin Xi had sharp eyes and quick hands, and immediately pulled her into his arms forcefully, making Lin Yao, who couldn't keep her balance, fall to her side.

Lin Yao stumbled and bumped into Lin Xi's arms.

The two snorted.

"... Be careful, don't fall down."

Lin Xi endured the tightness in his chest, hugged Lin Yao tightly in his arms, and whispered with a hint of blame.

"Ah."

Lin Yao raised her head, looked at the sister in front of her who was very similar to herself, and suddenly said: "Look, it's not just me protecting you from the wind, sister, you also saved me just now."

"...you will do the same if you want to walk behind."

Lin Xi was silent for a moment, and suddenly didn't want to leave, put both hands under Lin Yao's armpits, and hugged her tightly.

"Well, I'll do the same."

Lin Yao leaned against the warm Lin Xi, put her chin on her shoulder, and murmured: "So don't worry, don't think too much, I will help you, I will protect you from the wind and rain..."

In fact, there is such a thing as a sense of identity.

It needs to be accumulated over time.

When I first came here.

At the beginning, Lin Yao didn't care about this family, nor did she care about the elder sister in front of her, and she even lacked recognition of her own identity...

But get along day and night, along the way.

The people and things she met, the kindness gathered together.

Lin Yao found that she had changed unconsciously.

She has become part of this identity, this world, this home.

She will look forward to the custom of worshiping heaven and earth with tea.

I completely forgot that I had never heard of this custom in my previous life.

She would care about her father's childhood, worried that he would be alone, and let him come back together for the New Year.

She will look forward to seeing her good friend Mu Wanqing in the next year.

She would care about her sister in front of her, and wanted to protect her from the wind and rain.

She will want to protect this home...

Along the way.

Lin Yao really changed.

She also wonders sometimes.

The biggest reason for updating that turn-based online game was because of the system.

But now the money she earns from playing games is enough for her to live comfortably for the rest of her life.

Then why...why do I continue to work hard?

For money?Or for self-actualization?Or to make more good games?

Hmm...it doesn't feel like it.

"Is it 'shielding from the wind and rain' like just now?"

Because I couldn't see Lin Yao's expression.

Lin Xi didn't know what she was thinking, so he asked with a smile.

"That was an accident." Lin Yao raised her head again, looked at her sister, and defended herself.

"Yes, accident."

Lin Xi let go of Lin Yao's waist, reached out and gently pinched her soft face, smiling like a flower.

"It hurts..."

Lin Yao fought back, and stretched out her hand to pinch Lin Xi's face.

boom--

suddenly.

A loud bang.

Successfully attracted the attention of the two sisters.

A burst of fireworks lifted into the air, then exploded violently, turning into gorgeous fireworks, reflected in the pupils of the two.

The two looked at the firework, watched it spread out brightly, and then gradually dissipate.

Then they turned their heads and looked at each other.

"Happy New Year."

Lin Xi pursed her lips and smiled lightly, let go of Lin Yao's face, suddenly took a step forward, and hugged her tightly.

Lin Yao was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and wrapped her arms around her waist, whispering, "Happy New Year."

a new Year.

Coming soon.

But for what?

I have made enough money, and I have to continue to release new projects and make new games.

Maybe... just to protect the people I care about from the wind and rain.

　I'm sorry, I owe you another one. I'm so upset.
