The Christmas Eve celebration ended on a high note with Lu Zihao's successful marriage proposal to Long Jinjing. A few days later, the year also officially ended amidst a thick blanket of snow.
Iris and Jin Liwei chose to welcome the New Year together at home. This time, they didn't host a party because most people preferred to celebrate the New Year at the comfort of their own homes. Nevertheless, it wasn't lonely. On the contrary, the couple and their loved ones couldn't be any happier as they said goodbyes to the old year and ushered the New Year.
The holiday atmosphere quickly ended as people returned to work as usual. This was also true to Iris and Jin Liwei especially after the Chua family left and returned to the Philippines.
By this time, Iris' baby bump continued to grow bigger although she still didn't look pregnant yet when wearing loose clothing. Unless she wore figure-hugging clothes, others wouldn't notice that she was pregnant at all.
