Happy new year- xin nian kuai le!

Merry Christmas- sheng dan kuai le

Also i believe “gong xi fa cai” is like wishing someone a prosperous year

Xie xie ni, Kevin! I’ll give you the Chinese characters:

圣诞快乐 = merry chritsmas

新年快乐 = happy new year

恭喜发财 = wish a prosperous year (this is a very Chinese local wish in the new year)

So, I wish you, charlotte, Kevin, sheng dan kuai le in advance!
