The night was deep.
Inside and outside the Xia Family Mansion in the Southern City was brightly lit and decorated.
"Hurry, light the firecrackers and fireworks, the hero is back!"
With a screech, a dark green military vehicle stopped outside the mansion gate.
Suddenly, someone shouted out.
All the piled-up firecrackers and fireworks around were immediately set off!
The crackling sound shattered the stillness of the night.
Many nearby neighbors rushed out to watch, making it as lively as New Year.
"Why make it so lively, it's quite embarrassing..."
Lin Fan got out of the car, his eyes widening in surprise.
He saw Mr. Xia Sr. smiling, leading almost everyone from the mansion to greet him.
He let out a bitter laugh and shook his head.
"My family just produced a national hero, and I can't be high-profile about it? If anyone's not convinced, go earn something to boost your own reputation!"
Mr. Xia Sr. said with his hands on his hips, his voice booming with pride.
