Years flow like water, time flies like an arrow.
This is the last night of 2026.
Xu Lin and his friend found a place to eat around five o'clock.
By the time they came out at half past six, all the restaurants seemed packed, with people lined up everywhere.
Xu Lin just planned to wander outside until ten in the evening. As for gathering around a big screen with a crowd to count down, he wasn't interested in such excitement.
Luckily, Ning Yuhuan wasn't interested either.
Rong Xiyi and Xia Xiyao sent messages saying they were heading to the Bund tonight.
Xu Lin advised them to stay safe and not linger if it got particularly crowded.
After they were full, Xu Lin and Ning Yuhuan just strolled through nearby malls and alleys.
They spent the most time, almost an hour, on a street dedicated to selling various pets.
There were many people here too, mostly young folks.
Little animals included cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters, turtles, and even snakes, though they were quite niche.
