Chapter 272: Shao Cheng Decisiveness And Daring Actions. "I Just Want A New Beginning."

"Wooo, it's going to be New Year! I'm not going to be alone this year!"

"Oh! Oh! So much food! Big Brother Purple, our Papa wouldn't stop me from eating a lot today right?"

"Of course not! Look over there! That is our own spot, it's already prepared! Our grandmothers are so thoughtful and caring, look at that delicious food on the tables! All of it is our favorites!"

When the bright sky has finally turned dark, Shao Cheng watched as the pink rabbit joyfully run and jump into the large hall where the servants were busy moving around the entire place while an already awake Little Chen Yu was sniffing the air while having a drool on its mouth.

At the same time, Purple who has remained invisible has swiftly flown toward the smiling Su Chunhua and Su Yanmei.

The two women were busy examining the entire place in order to create a perfect and wonderful New Year celebration and have been completely ignorant about the fact that there was a purple dragon giving a gentle kiss in their cheeks.

"Woo, Grandmothers Bug, you are simply the best! So thoughtful and gentle! How come you have given birth to that wicked person? Don't worry, I, as the oldest son, would be extremely filial toward you since My Papa Bug couldn't be count on."

"..."

Why are the intelligent creatures I found was either foolish or abnormal?

"... I I want to go to my siblings"

Child, don't add to the trouble

Shao Cheng has calmly reached over his long red sleeves to gently caress the envious baby snake who can only remain wrapped in his wrist.

As for the white rabbits, since they lack human intelligence, Shao Cheng has just let them remain in his courtyard with various vegetables already prepared for them to eat.

"After having Third Brother with us and along with the adorable animals, It's far livelier this Year."

Just like always, Shao Cheng watch as his younger brother Cai always tried to add him in the conversation whenever he went silent for a bit too long.

"I suddenly remember Little Cheng's promise on giving us our own pet. Although we have those countless white rabbits around, but Little Cheng would definitely give us a unique one right?"

Shao Cheng couldn't help but turned his gaze to his second brother Chonglin after being reminded of the promise he has spoken before while continuing to quietly poke the baby snake wrapped on his wrist.

"P-Papa don't give G-Gold away sniff I I'm willing to bite your enemy..."

there is no way I'll let you get close to my family, at least, first stop the unconscious act of bitting anyone whenever you are stress, scared and anxious.

And just like I thought, you also have a dark side.

"Well, I'm going to be the one getting it first right? Base on our age, I am the oldest among us, so I will be the first person receiving a unique animal from our Little Cheng."

"Huh?"

"No way!"

"Big Brother Yan is dreaming again."

While Shao Cheng was busy bullying the baby snake shivering on his wrist, the three brothers and three sisters have somehow started to glare at each other while giving their own reason why they will be the first person receiving a unique animal.

"Stop."

Fortunately, Shao Cheng's father has come on time before his brothers and sisters started to violently beat each other, which usually happens in the family, although the sibling fights normally occur when he wasn't in their presence.

At least, Shao Cheng seeing his sibling fighting is enough proof to show how everyone has been getting used to his unexpected acceptance and change of attitude in their life.

"There is no need for all of you to fight each other. My third son is extremely filial and would definitely give the first unique animal to his dear father."

"..."

Shao Cheng couldnt help but gaze at his father who was extremely shameless, cheeky, and childish enough to fight favorite with his own children before turning his gaze toward his amused Twin Mothers who have walked over to finally called them over.

"Come on, let us sit at the dining table, it's time to eat."

Shortly, everyone has settled in their own spot which is followed base on their own status, although the Shao Family wasn't strict and severe enough to the rules of the other aristocrat families.

The sitting arrangement was merely from the oldest to the youngest and when everyone is ready, an extremely lively and happy dinner has started.

Some of them happily tasting the various delicious dishes place on the table while the oldest in the family has begun to drink the old age wine usually accessible for a special celebration.

And as time quickly pass by, it was time for the people to start giving their gifts to each other, which has caused the countless pair of shining eyes to stare upon the silent young man dress in a gorgeous crimson robe.

... really, you guys wanted me to be the first one to give the gift...?

Shao Cheng can only inwardly sigh after noticing the great expectant and hope shining upon his family's eyes while perfectly understanding the great importance of today's New Year Celebration with the Shao Family.

So, he didn't hesitate after a few seconds of being stared at by his family and relative before ordering one of the trusted servants around the large hall just standing in the side to bring all the gifts he has already prepared to be carried in when called.

And different from the usual attitude of sitting in the chair, Shao Cheng has calmly stood up and one by one, introducing the items while personally giving the gift to his family with his own hands, ultimately showing the hidden care he felt toward them.

Rather than speaking in words, isn't using an action alone being one of the best methods to show how a person honestly feels?

Nonetheless, Shao Cheng has simply decided to do both on today's special occasion.

"Father Yin, Mother Chunhua, and Mother Yanmei, I have personally brewed countless different types of wine while I was staying in my courtyard, although the medicinal wine isn't ready yet, but the other types are already ready to be drunk whenever you wanted."

Shao Cheng knows how his parent simply loves to drink alcohol just like the drunkard Ren Yuan, so it wasn't surprising when among the gifts he could think off, gifting alcohol has simply won in the list.

Although it was completely unlike what aristocrat children usually give to their parents during the New Year Celebration.

However, Shao Cheng simply believes that giving the people what they wanted is far better than some random luxurious and rare items that can only use to show off to other people because of how precious and important it was.

"... Oh my"

Shao Cheng silently watched the way his father's face has quickly brighten up in utter happiness, while his Twin Mothers has shown an amused and excited smile on their lips before finally picking up the open small box which has displayed the key inside.

It was the key to open up the place where he has stored the various alcohol he has personally brewed just for his parents alone.

And one among them was the special wine which is made of various medicinal ingredients, which was something he made by the combination of the information he has in the first life and the medicinal knowledge he learns in the second one.

It was the incorporation of Shao Cheng's experience and knowledge from living two different lifetimes.

Of course, Shao Cheng also has other gifts to give to his parent, so he once again called one of the maidservants standing in the side before picking up the other items covered in a piece of cloth.

And as soon as Shao Cheng solemnly offer the object to his father, it was quickly revealed that it was an extremely thin but sharp dagger, and although it looks delicate but everyone can tell that it wasn't as fragile as it appeared.

"Father, I still don't like the violence, fighting, and killing. For my entire life, I would never like it, however, I also understand how necessary it is while at the same time, there is someone who needed to do it no matter what the person felt."

My heart has become completely numb to people's death instead of feeling happy and thrilled about it.

It might not look like it but I have never once liked the feeling of killing and torturing people.

While in order to survive and reach a certain goal, I have turned into an entirely different person beyond recognition.

There is always sacrifice in life, it just depends on how important and special a person has lost.

"There isn't only black and white in everything. When people fight, there is also the reason that they just have someone to protect. And when people kill, it can also mean that they just want to save an important person in their life. So, father, I realized it now."

I'm sorry... the original Shao Cheng doesn't understand your pain, burden, and hardship, while in the previous life, I was completely blind and heartless toward your extremely sincere heart.

In the new life, for a new day and new beginning, Shao Cheng didn't hesitate to bend his straight back with his knees touching the ground as he bowed extremely low toward his family for everything he has done.

Although no one else but Shao Cheng remembers the previous life miserable situation, but he is completely daring enough to admit his mistake while facing his wrongdoing.

At least, if it to the people he started to care, then he can do anything for them, even letting go of his dignity and pride.

"Father, Mothers, Brothers, and Sisters... I extremely apologize for being ignorant and wilful of all these years. I am extremely sorry for causing everyone to feel constant pain and endless sadness. Please forgive me."

In the previous life, everything has been far too late and there wasn't any chance to asked for forgiveness, but he can finally apologize to everyone.

Although it's supposed to be a happy celebration, but it's also the perfect time for Shao Cheng to correct everything from the start, especially when dealing with the pain in his family's heart, which was definitely left behind by the original attitude in the past few years.

There are always injuries and scars after the long years of absolute indifference, which wasn't something that could easily be erased and forgotten just because of the sudden attitude he has been showing toward them.

So, the first step to heal the scars in the entire Shao Family's heart is to sincerely apologize.

"Little Cheng! Don't do this. It is also our fault for not being good enough. As a parent, we weren't able to protect you."

Suddenly, Shao Yin, Su Chunhua, and Su Yanmei have stood up from their chair after finally waking up from their stupor when their son has suddenly bowed on the ground while sincerely apologize before them.

And the three of them couldn't help but rash over with anxious expression on their face before swiftly and gently pulling their son up.

While the brothers and sisters watching in their own chair couldn't help but also stand up and rushing over with flustered expressions on their faces with their eyes widen in surprise and confusion.

"Brother what are you doing?"

"Little Cheng, there is no need to apologize!"

"Third Brother, don't kneel and bow!"

Although Shao Cheng was being surrounded by his worried and anxious family, he has finally opened his mouth to let everyone know about the main reason for his sudden actions.

"I just want a new beginning for all of us."

Shao Cheng's cold sapphire eyes seriously gaze upon the complicated eyes of his father, which is the person who has always been guarding the entire Empire and the person struggling to protect his family while carrying all the heavy burden on his shoulder.

Father or not, this man is definitely a true hero among the countless people he met in his entire life, which completely deserves to be treated better along with respect.

This time, I won't allow the family you wholeheartedly love to be broken apart and destroyed.

"...Oh Good A new beginning... My son, then let us all do it."

Shao Yin's eyes couldn't help but become teary while shakily reaching over to take the dagger in his hands and gripping it tightly, while at the same time, completely unbothered about how weak and fragile he appeared in everyone's eyes.

Because there aren't enough words alone to fully explain the feeling he has right now, especially after hearing the words new beginning from his third son who has been indifferent and cold for a long time.

Suddenly, the slight anxiety and fear that has always remained in Shao Yin's heart while inwardly thinking that everything would turn out the way it was in the past had finally disappeared.

And such a situation has also occurred to the other people's hearts, completely erasing the lingering doubt, dread, and fear that couldn't help but remain in their hearts.

Although some injuries and scars have remained, but time would completely heal it after witnessing and experiencing the sudden closeness and change of the culprit who has left such a wound in their hearts.
