Chapter 1322 631: The Start Is Also the End (Main Story Complete)

"As for those who lack the ability to return..."

"My real obsession is with hoping Mrs. Qin's children, even if separated due to the war, will eventually someday reunite."

"I wish them health and happiness, just like Mrs. Qin wishes for me to be healthy and happy."

"I think those abilities should appear in others who can help me fulfill my wishes, in some special form."

"That's basically everything I wanted to say. Do you have anything else to ask? Or is there something you haven't yet told me but now remember?"

Qin Huai looked at Chen Huihong, his instinct telling him there must be other things this group hasn't shared with him.

Chen Huihong chuckled.

"There is."

"Actually, Luo Jun's private detective found Jiang Weiming long ago. He's in Shu, helping his eldest son look after his grandson. Life isn't great, but he's relatively healthy. We've been afraid to tell you in case it affects your Crossing Tribulation."

"Let me think, what else haven't I told you..."

"I actually have something to tell you." Shi Dadan timidly raised his hand, "Things none of them know about."

Everyone looked at Shi Dadan, their eyes filled with admiration.

"Who would've thought, Dang Kang, you're more secretive than anyone."

"But I haven't decided how to say it yet. Can I say it later? Like in a separate extra, let the author write a special chapter for me?"

Qin Huai laughed, "Of course, Old Shi, you can say it whenever you want."

Qin Huai glanced out the window, the day was already bright.

"My grandparents are probably already awake. Why don't we stop here for today? We can talk later. Today is New Year's Eve, the most important thing is to make the New Year feast. I have a lot of snacks to prepare."

"Alright." Chen Huihong stood up.

The next second, Shi Dadan's phone rang. As he answered it, his wife's furious voice blared from the other end.

"Shi Dadan, aren't you a glutton come back from the dead during the New Year? Where are you now? Are you at Master Qin's place? Leaving your wife and kids behind, running off to eat breakfast by yourself. Hurry back and get us!"

Shi Dadan: ...

"Go quickly." Qin Huai said with a smile.

Shi Dadan hurried back to pick up his wife and kids.

"By the way, Qin Huai, what's up with Zhou Hu? Why is he still asleep and you're already awake?" Chen Huihong asked.

"Oh, I forgot to mention, Zhou Hu was a fortune teller I met in my first life. At that time, he wandered around Beiping City giving fortune readings, his skills were lacking, but he swindled a lot of money from the wealthy and powerful. Perhaps guilt got the better of him, and he failed in Crossing Tribulation just like that."

"I was actually quite surprised; his fortune-telling skills were not good in his first life, but now they're quite decent. Many of the absurd things he predicted for me turned out to be quite accurate after I woke up."

"Maybe this industry really requires a bit of ancestral craftsmanship."

"As for when Zhou Hu will wake up, I think it's soon. His status is quite close to waking, with a little push, he should awaken in the coming years."

Chen Huihong quickly responded, "No rush, no rush. If he wakes up and remembers things from his first life, perhaps his fortune-telling skills will be inferior to now, like Xiao Zhao. Let him finish reading our fortunes first, his current state is pretty good, no hurry for him to wake up."

Zhao Cheng'an: ...?

I get disparaged for this???

Qin Huai smiled and continued making snacks.

.

8:18 PM.

In previous years, the dinner time for the Qin Family's New Year feast was determined by when Qin Huai finished cooking. This year, maybe because many guests arrived, Mr. Qin insisted on some unnecessary rituals, like setting dinner at 8:18, a supposedly auspicious time with no real significance.

Qin Huai exceeded expectations, or rather, performed as expected after inheriting all the skills from past lives, and prepared a table full of Level S snacks.

The aroma of the snacks was so tempting that Qin Luo restrained himself from sneaking a bite in the kitchen, showing that indeed the child has grown up.

"Brother, I feel like something's different about you today compared to before." Qin Luo whispered as he sat next to Qin Huai. "Not only do the snacks look more appetizing, but you look more like a sage."

"Have you really experienced A flash of insight?"

Qin Huai chuckled, "Perhaps."

"It's a new year; there should be some growth. This morning, while making snacks, I suddenly understood many things I didn't before."

Qin Luo: ?

Qin Luo was a bit confused, suspecting her brother was showing off.

You've changed, brother, you didn't brag in front of me before.

As the clock struck 8:18 PM, Old Master Qin raised his glass, beaming with joy, "Today is a special day, so many of Huaihuai's friends have come to our Qin Family Village for the New Year. Welcome, everyone."

"I won't say too much; I'm not really good with words. I hope you all eat and drink to your heart's content. Wishing everyone a lucky and prosperous new year, may all go well, stay healthy, happy, and safe!"

Chen Huihong and Cheng Gong were the first to raise their glasses, followed by everyone else.

"Happy New Year!"

All voices came together, forming the most heartfelt blessing for the new year.

Including Feifei's blessings.

.

Years later—

[An exquisitely made counterfeit bill]

The young man collecting money did not accept it, he smiled apologetically at the burly, bald man in front of him, "Sorry, sir, but we have no change for a hundred right now."

"No change?" The customer withdrew his money, reluctantly handing the young man a twenty-yuan note, grumbling a bit before leaving the small shop after receiving his change.

The young man smiled apologetically at Qin Huai, who returned the smile and continued eating.

Mrs. Qin's grandson's cooking skills are really...

Qin Huai glanced at the Kung Pao Chicken almost ready in the kitchen.

[A plate of sweat and oil-mixed Kung Pao Chicken]

He shook his head.

"Hey handsome, ready to pay?"

"Alright, 15 yuan."

"Do I scan here?"

"Any way works."

Qin Huai finished paying, waved to the young man, walked out of the small shop, and looked up at the signboard as he reached the doorway.

Healthy Restaurant.

Not as good as Taifeng Building.

"Are you not going to tell them?" Chen Huihong asked after buying water from next door, "Jiang Qi's amusement park is open, Jiang Weiming is almost a centenarian, yet you haven't let Mrs. Qin's descendants reunite?"

"My ability is within him, it's awakening soon." Qin Huai said, "I can feel it."

"Fate will bring them together."

PS: Don't worry, there are extras, lots of extras. The extras from three books will be written together in this book. (Of course, extras will come slowly, I'll update after enjoying a few days during New Year)

I wrote the end of this chapter entirely to match the title, the start is also the end.

Lastly.

Cheers, congratulations on completion, and Happy New Year to everyone!
