When it reached the early hours of the morning, as was customary, Li Jing and everyone spent the final moments together following the countdown of the Spring Festival Gala on TV.
Then came the red envelope exchange segment. Li Jing was now at the age to give red envelopes, so he didn't receive any but instead gave Li Xiaoxiao and Wang Dongdong each a large red envelope.
Feeling the thickness of the envelope in her hand, Li Xiaoxiao's face showed surprise, but before she could speak, Li Jing silenced her with a gesture.
"This is pocket money for you two, just keep it to yourselves."
Li Jing smiled. He gave Li Xiaoxiao a five thousand yuan envelope and Wang Dongdong a two thousand yuan one.
The reason for the different amounts was, firstly, because Li Xiaoxiao was attending university, which involved higher expenses, and Wang Dongdong was just a middle school student, so giving too much money wouldn't be appropriate. Secondly, Li Jing was closer to Li Xiaoxiao.
