Chapter 281 Preparations before the Beginning of Winter
Chapter 281 Preparations before the Beginning of Winter
Three courses had already passed, and the flavors had experienced the five flavors of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty. At this moment, the thought of the Lidong event I mentioned earlier suddenly flashed through my mind. I slowly put down my chopsticks and said, "Do you remember what we talked about earlier about holding an event at the nursery during the Lidong event? I've come up with some great ideas these past few days." As soon as I finished speaking, Lotta's eyes lit up, and she urged eagerly, "Stop keeping us in suspense! Tell us about it."
I coughed lightly, clearing my throat before continuing, "I think we should get the kids together to make dumplings. After all, it's a traditional custom during the Beginning of Winter. Furthermore, we could invite our loyal fans to team up with the kids for a fun dumpling-making competition. The winning team will receive a small prize." As soon as I finished speaking, Lei clapped her hands excitedly, exclaiming, "Wow! This is a brilliant idea! I'm sure the kids will have a blast!" Yingjie, on the other hand, nodded in agreement and volunteered, "Great! Leave the venue design to me! I'll meticulously transform the nursery into a breathtakingly beautiful world of ice and snow."
As the discussion deepened, the atmosphere grew increasingly lively. Everyone enthusiastically contributed their thoughts and immediately began meticulously planning the entire event. From the specific process and schedule, to the procurement list for necessary supplies, to the division of labor and deployment of personnel, no detail was overlooked. What had originally been a simple gathering of friends, in its latter stages, transformed almost entirely into a preparatory meeting for the Lidong event. Everyone was fully engaged, actively contributing their wisdom and energy, and looking forward to the success of this exciting event.
Only when darkness deepened and the sky was dotted with stars did everyone slowly disperse, somewhat reluctantly. I stood there quietly, following my friends' retreating figures, my heart filled with endless anticipation and longing for the upcoming Beginning of Winter event.
The imagined scene of the kindergarten inevitably emerged in my mind: laughter echoed endlessly, like sweet music, filling the air; love permeated the air, warming everyone's heart like the warm spring sun. The children's innocent smiles were as charming as newly opened flowers, and the fans, filled with enthusiasm, ignited the entire scene with their passion. These beautiful scenes intertwined and merged into one, like a colorful painting slowly unfolding before my eyes. Just thinking about it makes me fascinated, and I can't wait to be there and experience that unique atmosphere firsthand.
After the last friend left, the room suddenly fell silent. And in that silence, I quietly did something that violated the rules. According to convention, during interstellar weekends, government departments are closed, and ordinary citizens are not allowed to send any messages to the government's computer mailbox during this time.
However, a unique situation convinced me to take the plunge. The Beginning of Winter solar term is approaching next Thursday, making it the perfect opportunity for a special event! So, I secretly planned everything: as soon as midnight rolled around tonight, I'd send a detailed event request to the community leaders of the kindergarten, along with my meticulously crafted event plan. That way, even though it would be past the weekend, midnight would still count as the beginning of a new day.
Filled with anticipation and joy, I sat quietly in my chair, my eyes fixed on the slowly moving clock hands on the wall. Tick, tick... Each crisp sound seemed like a soft feather, gently plucking the strings of my heart, which had long been unable to contain itself. As the minutes passed, my excitement grew.
Finally, after a long wait, the hour and minute hands slowly overlapped at 12. At that moment, I felt my heartbeat accelerate to its limit. I took a deep breath, steadying my trembling hands, and quickly opened the laptop screen in front of me. My fingers pounded away, sending the meticulously crafted event plan to the email address of the community leader who oversaw the kindergarten.
The moment I clicked "Send," a wave of nervousness and excitement washed over me. I stood up and began pacing the room, imagining my leaders' reactions to my proposal. I worried they would think my idea was immature and incomplete; then I looked forward to the event being approved and successfully held. This complex mixture of anxiety and anticipation washed over me during this profoundly meaningful moment.
The next morning, just as the sun was glimmering in the east, I eagerly opened my eyes, a little rabbit dancing inside my heart. My gaze quickly focused on the computer beside my bed, eager to see if there was any new information waiting for me. However, to my disappointment, the computer screen was still pitch black, with no sign of a response.
All day long, I sat on pins and needles, consumed by anxiety and restlessness. No matter what I did, my mind was unable to focus, and my mind was constantly reeling from all sorts of speculations about that unanswered question. The minutes ticked by, each moment a torture.
Finally, as the sun set and a brilliant sunset glowed across the horizon, the previously silent computer suddenly emitted a faint light. My heartbeat instantly accelerated, and I frantically rushed to the computer. A closer look revealed a reply from the community leader! At that moment, my hands trembled uncontrollably. After taking a deep breath, I slowly clicked on the message.
When I first laid eyes on those words of affirmation, I was instantly overwhelmed by a surge of warmth. Those warm and encouraging words were like rays of sunshine piercing through layers of dark winter clouds, sweeping away the gloom that had enveloped me for days. This strength, like a spring breeze, gently soothed my once anxious heart.
What was even more surprising was that the community leaders not only offered verbal support and affirmation, but also provided a series of constructive and forward-looking valuable suggestions for my plan. These suggestions were like a beacon of light, instantly illuminating my previously confused thoughts and making my thinking increasingly clear. Suddenly, countless new ideas and thoughts flooded my mind, filling me with endless anticipation for the upcoming event.
At that moment, I could no longer contain the surging excitement within me. Like an innocent child, I shot up from my chair, completely immersed in immense joy. My face, flushed with excitement, broke into a brilliant, irrepressible smile, like a delicate flower blooming in the sun.
Just then, the community leaders delivered another piece of exciting news: community staff would be coming to the kindergarten in the coming days to fully assist us in meticulously preparing for this meaningful event! Upon hearing this news, I was overwhelmed with gratitude and quickly sent a message of gratitude to the community leaders. Then, I couldn't wait to log into the kindergarten's Bilin account, excitedly posted a preview of the event, and officially opened registration for the Lidong event to the public.
To ensure the smooth running of the event and the safety of the children at the kindergarten, we've created a unique registration process—participants are required to answer a series of questions to verify their longtime fans and loyal followers of the kindergarten. After completing the questions, all applicants' social connections will undergo a rigorous and detailed community review and verification process. Only those who pass these rigorous tests will be eligible to personally participate in this Lidong event, filled with love and care.
