Chapter 1161 New Year's Carnival (Second update, please subscribe)
New Year is here!

Perhaps because there is no cold winter in the twelfth lunar month in Nanyang, the last day of the year becomes a carnival night.

From Chang'an to Dongning, millions of people took to the streets to party in almost every city in Nanyang. On this day, Kuching was a sea of ​​joy!

On the streets full of pedestrians, those walking on the streets kept honking their horns, and singing "Congratulations" was heard everywhere.

On both sides of the street, tens of thousands of people were wandering around aimlessly, happy people were flowing on the streets, people were throwing colored paper at each other, blowing horns, and blessing the people around them with hoarse voices, even if they were strangers.

At this moment, all the unpleasant things disappeared!

For these people, when New Year's Day comes, on this carnival night, people only have expectations for the future.

Squeezed in the crowd, Vivian, wearing a Hanfu, looked around curiously. Now she was wandering the streets of Kuching like any other tourist. Sometimes people bumped into her, and sometimes, people threw colored paper at her - this was on the few days when she could throw colored paper at will, and it was strictly prohibited at other times.

At this time, even if the police saw them throwing colored paper, they would unconsciously smile and respond.

Everything is so... joyful!
Vivian was full of curiosity about this world, and she just wanted to experience the differences of this world. At this moment, the front became more lively, with a band and a celebratory float. The band played cheerful music, and the actors on the float performed moving dances.

At this time, the atmosphere reached its peak and people were dancing, singing and cheering.

After finally squeezing through the dense crowd, she looked at Jason who had been pulling her and laughed.

"Jason, look, everyone is so happy!"

"how about you?"

“I’ve never been happier!”

Soon they followed the crowd to King's Square, the city center of Kuching. At this time, hundreds of thousands of people had gathered here, holding hydrogen balloons. At this time, this place was already a sea of ​​balloons, just waiting for the last moment. They would release the balloons at the moment when the New Year's bell arrived to celebrate the arrival of the New Year.

I don’t know since when, all of this has become a regular event in various cities in Southeast Asia, and such carnival nights even attract many foreign tourists.

As time approached, the atmosphere in the crowd became more and more heated, and Vivian held Jason's hand tightly, looking at the building opposite with anticipation. Suddenly, people began to count down along with the numbers flashing in the neon lights on the building.

"five four three two one……"

Each number was like a hammer hitting the drum of my heart, stirring up ripples and infinitely magnifying my joy and hope. At the moment when the word "one" fell, cold fireworks suddenly flashed above the building, and the bright neon lights flashed the words "Happy New Year".

As the New Year's bell rang, cold fireworks lit up the entire building.

"Happy New Year!"

Amid cheers, people spontaneously raised their balloons, and the colorful balloons broke free and lightly rose into the night sky. They intertwined and collided in the air, and finally turned into a flowing rainbow, slowly spreading in the night sky, which was so beautiful that it was intoxicating.

In this dreamlike scene, the night sky across the river suddenly burst into dazzling light. Fireworks soared into the sky, like a gorgeous rain of fireworks, completely dispelling the darkness. Red, yellow, blue, green... various colors of light intertwined together, blooming into countless brilliant flowers, illuminating everyone's face and their hearts.

Like many people, in the cheers of the New Year, Vivian threw herself into Jason's arms and kissed him passionately.
At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and all worries and sorrows were swallowed up by this brilliant light.

That night, the entire city and everyone were immersed in joy and happiness as always.

……

When she woke up, it was already the next morning. Vivian opened her eyes and looked around.

Jason is not here. Last night, no, early this morning, they slept in the same bed... but nothing happened. They just chatted and fell asleep while chatting.

Just when Vivian was puzzled, she saw the note on the bed.

"So he went to buy breakfast."

Muttering to herself, Vivian got up and went to the bathroom to wash up. Then, out of boredom, she turned on the TV. Although the programs on TV were not in English, she couldn't help but praise the woman on the screen.

“This actress is so beautiful!”

Then she sat on the bed and watched TV with great interest. The actors on the screen were all very beautiful, and the costumes they wore were also very beautiful. They were a bit similar to the Hanfu she wore yesterday, but more gorgeous.

The only regret is... I can't understand what they are saying.

"I don't know when Jason will come back. I'll ask him to translate for... Oh! My God! She, she can fly..."

Suddenly, accompanied by a scream, Vivian jumped to the head of the bed, staring at the TV, and said in horror, "She, is she an angel? She can actually fly..."

With her eyes wide open, Vivian stared at the TV, not even daring to blink. The actress on TV had fluttering clothes like an angel. She even nervously grabbed the pillow with her hands, fearing that the woman would accidentally fall from the sky.

Finally, when the actress landed, Vivian breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Oh my God, how is this possible!"

Just then, the door opened and Jason came in with a big bag of breakfast. As soon as she saw Jason, Vivian shouted loudly.

"Jason, look, look, she, she can fly,"

In her excitement, Vivian even started to gesture. For a moment, Jason could only see the long white legs swinging. But Vivian obviously didn't realize this. She pointed at the TV and said:

"Hurry, Jason, tell me quickly, what are they saying? Translate it for me, are they angels? Otherwise, how can they fly? She can fly, did you know? She is so beautiful..."

Seeing Vivian's excitement, Jason, who had already been excited once in a few months, pretended to be calm and said:

"Oh, this is The Legend of White Snake."

In fact, a few months ago, when he first saw the scene in the TV series where White Snake and Xiao Qing looked like fairies with fluttering sleeves, he was so surprised that his mouth couldn't close. In an instant, White Snake and Xiao Qing became fairies in his heart, and that fairy-like scene made him intoxicated.

"what is this?"

"It's just a TV show. All these flying scenes are just acting."

"What's the story?"

Seeing Vivian like a curious baby, Jason began to explain to her. While explaining, he also acted as a translator to tell her what was playing on TV.

"You see, she is the White Lady, but in fact, she is not a human being!"

"what?"

……

Sometimes, the sensation caused by a TV series is unexpected. During the broadcast of "Legend of White Snake", every time it was shown, the streets of Nanyang were deserted, and every TV set was packed with audiences.

For people of this era, seeing a beauty in ancient costume flying down from the sky is unimaginably shocking. What's more important is that the story of the TV series is extremely wonderful, and the beauties on TV are a feast for the eyes. Even Liu Lian, who plays Xu Xian, has become the dream lover of many girls. However, he is a female actress playing the role. After the news came out, many women were heartbroken.

However, the real winner was probably Zhu Hong, who had just turned 18. Overnight, she became the most famous female star in all of Southeast Asia, and even in East Asia and Southeast Asia.

The song "A Thousand Years of Waiting" can be heard everywhere in the streets and alleys, and there are posters of Zhu Hong everywhere.

"My family is unfortunate!"

Once again, when Zhu Xixian accidentally saw the poster hanging on the newsstand, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly, his expression full of helplessness.

Zhu Hong was a little overwhelmed by her sudden popularity, but the one who really couldn't adapt was her father Zhu Xixian. He did not support his daughter's acting. After all, the Zhu family was a famous family. After graduating from Huangpu, he was not only the chief guard of the "King of Yunnan" Long Yun, but also participated in the Battle of Taierzhuang. Although his family is not as well off as before, he has always been ashamed of his daughter being an actress. The reality of his daughter's sudden popularity made Zhu Xixian feel even more ashamed.

After all, in Zhu Xixian's opinion, his daughter's choice of acting was "disgraceful" and damaging to the family's reputation.

"Really? Why don't you go to college and act in a play..."

While sighing helplessly in his heart, Zhu Xixian continued to patrol - once the captain of the guards, now in Nanyang, he is just an ordinary patrolman. Although his status and position have suddenly declined, he can take it easy. After all, his current life is very comfortable, and this kind of comfortable life is exactly what he dreamed of after 30 years of military service.

Looking at the fashionable young men and women on the streets of Kuching at that time, Zhu Xixian even wondered in his heart, if Yuanyuan had not come to Kuching from Hong Kong Island, but went to Taiping or Yongning, would she have entered that industry and become an actor?
Perhaps out of frustration, Zhu Xixian couldn't help but say:

"At the beginning, even if it was to Malaya, it would be fine!"

"Officer Zhu, do you want to go to Malaya too?"

When his colleague heard this, he chimed in:

"I heard in the newspaper that Yuanyuan has been promoting in Malaya recently, right?"

Zhu Xixian's face became even uglier after hearing his colleague's words. He, who had never cared about his daughter's career, sighed in his heart.

Now, the shame has been brought to Malaya...
