The Mightiest Little Peasant

r to come.

The night wind that brushed past their faces was slightly cold.

They leaned against each other, looking at their watches without saying a word.

The second hand marched rhythmically toward midnight.

“Ten… nine… eight… seven…” She counted softly.

“Zero!” The second hand struck the number twelve.

Bang! Bang!

Fireworks were set off everywhere in the city, lighting up the night sky in a dazzling display.

“So beautiful!” Qin Xiangyi exclaimed.

She turned her head and looked at Tang Hao.
“Happy New Year, Lil Tang!”

“Mm! Happy New Year!” Tang Hao replied and held her hand tightly.

“How time flies, Lil Tang.
It’s been another year.
This is the second year we are together.” She leaned over and rested her head on his shoulder.

“Yeah! It’s so fast!” Tang Hao said.

“Actually… I hope it can be faster.
You’re only twenty years old this year.
You’re still too young!” She muttered.

She paused for a while and continued, “Lil Tang, do you remember last year? We celebrated the New Year like this too.
We’ll celebrate New Year this way every year after this, OK?”

“OK!” Tang Hao kissed her forehead and said solemnly.

After a while, she looked at her watch and said softly, “Let’s go! We’re going to miss the premiere!”

Then, she stood up in a hurry.

Tang Hao smiled and said, “Don’t worry, we won’t miss it!” Then, he picked her up and rode the wind.

She cried out in surprise and hugged Tang Hao tightly.

They flew past the tall buildings and landed near the cinema.

The entrance of the cinema was very lively, even though it was past midnight.
Many people brought their families to watch a movie.
They looked very happy, greeting each other with “Happy New Year!”

“What are we watching, dear?”

“Let me see.
‘Bait and Switch’ should be pretty good.
The director is very famous.
Look at the all-star cast.
‘The Legend of Deification’ should also be good.”

“What about this ‘Mao Mountain Taoist Master’? I heard that the trailer is amazing.”

“Ha! It’s a trash movie.
You can tell by the name of the director.
I don’t even know all these actors.”

Tang Hao could hear those conversations as soon as he stepped into the cinema.

He grimaced and felt a little helpless.

Many people decide on what movie to watch based on the names of the director and actors.
“Mao Mountain Taoist Master” had no renowned director and big-name actors, which put it at a disadvantage.

According to Manager Zhuo, the movie got a pitifully low number of screenings in the cinemas.

That was within expectations.
It was indeed quite difficult to take on the major titles.

However, the Lunar New year holiday period was still long, and he was confident that his movie would perform better.
It might not be number one, but it should not perform too badly either.

There was one midnight showing of “Mao Mountain Taoist Master”, and that was specifically requested by the company.
After all, Westridge was the home base of Haotian Group, and the cinema owner was acquainted with the owner of the cinema.

The couple bought popcorn and went into the theater.

“Hey! Isn’t that chairman Tang?”

They ran into familiar people as soon as they entered.
A group of people stood up from their seats and greeted him.

Tang Hao was surprised.
They were all young Haotian Group employees.

“You guys are here too!” Tang Hao said.

“Of course! We have to support our own movie.”

“Some people say that the movie is terrible.
I’d like to see how bad it can be.”

They laughed jokingly.

Tang Hao could not help but laugh.
He and Qin Xiangyi found their seats and sat down.

Not long after, the screening began.
