Mrs. Lin opened the door and was very surprised when she saw the person coming.
"Miss?"
But soon he felt happy,
"You're back!"
After saying that, he quickly turned around and shouted towards the restaurant,
"Master, old lady, young master, the eldest lady is back!"
At the same time, the eldest lady in Mrs. Lin's mouth, Gu Xinrong, Gu Chengyan's aunt, walked in.
"Sister-in-law Lin!"
He called Mrs. Lin and then asked,
"Where are they?"
"They're all in the restaurant!"
Mrs. Lin led Gu Xinrong towards the restaurant. Before she had even taken two steps, she was greeted by everyone who had heard the noise and came to a place. The person at the front was Lin Huainan.
Seeing her mother whom she hadn't seen for a long time, she stepped forward and gave Gu Xinrong a big hug and said very affectionately,
"Oh, my dear mommy, long time no see. I really miss you!"
Underneath the sweet tone is real longing.
Even though the person who usually disciplines him the most is his mother, he also has the best and closest relationship with his mother.
My father is more majestic, and because my father often travels on business, we don't see him often, and there is a certain amount of acquaintance with him.
Gu Xinrong looked at her son who rushed over all of a sudden, and her originally calm face suddenly melted like ice and snow, filled with love.
But he soon regained his composure and pushed up his son who was hugging him tightly and was more than a head taller than him.
"What does it look like to behave like this!"
That's what he said, but the love in his eyes could be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.
Lin Huainan can naturally see it,
"I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you so much!"
"You're a sweet talker, but it's you, you've been going crazy here lately!"
"No way!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Huainan was unwilling.
"I really work seriously and perform very well. If you don't believe me, ask my brother!"
He turned to look at Gu Chengyan, who had also walked over.
The Queen's Mother is real, can't you praise him?
Gu Chengyan pulled Li Muhan over and shouted politely,
"aunt!"
For this aunt, I have more respect in my heart.
After his father passed away, his aunt, who was originally gentle and loving, and even responsive to his requests, suddenly became strict, urging him to study and do business, and not letting him slack off.
At first he was not used to it, and even felt a little aggrieved by this sudden change.
But slowly he understood that his aunt was doing this so that he could become stronger and grow faster, and the grievances and discomfort in his heart gradually dissipated.
But when he really grew up, his aunt's attitude changed back to before.
Gu Xinrong looked at her nephew who had grown up and had a family. She looked at him with love, but more importantly, with pride!
"Yan'er, I'm one year older, happy birthday!"
"Thank you, aunt!"
Gu Xinrong's eyes immediately fell on Li Muhan who was standing next to Gu Chengyan. She looked at this niece who was even more well-behaved and pleasant than she looked in the photo. She indeed had a pleasing face as her mother said.
"This must be Mu Han!"
The tone became softer.
Compared with his attitude towards his own son just now, he was a lot better.
When Li Muhan saw that he was mentioned, he hurriedly called out like Gu Chengyan,
"Hello, aunt!"
"good!"
Even though I haven't met her in person, I have heard a lot about this niece-in-law from her father and mother.
For example, he solved the troublesome Bihai Pavilion case, became the design director of the architectural design department, and managed it very well. And recently, he won the design rights for the land in the south.
Such a daughter-in-law who can not only take care of Yan'er in life, but also work side by side with Yan'er at work is really great!
As he said that, he handed over the two gifts he was holding.
"Finally, we meet each other. This is a meeting gift from your aunt, and the other one is Yan'er's birthday gift!"
Li Muhan was flattered and took it.
"Thank you, aunt!"
At first, when this aunt came in, I saw that her face was a bit serious and she had a strong aura, so I thought she would be difficult to get along with, so I felt a little scared.
Unexpectedly, he turned out to be the complete opposite, very easy-going. Li Muhan's heart, which he had been worried about since just now, fell back to where it was before.
Next to him, Gu Chengyan was very happy to see that his aunt really liked Mu Mu.
Seeing Gu Xinrong mention that she also had a gift of her own, she hurriedly said,
"Thank you, aunt, so you came back here specifically to celebrate my birthday?"
"Of course, but I also want to see if this brat here is as good as you say!"
The brat naturally refers to Lin Huainan.
Lin Huainan seems to have long been accustomed to the differential treatment of his empress,
"Mom, if you miss me, just say it, no need to beat around the bush like this!"
Lin Huainan stepped forward and hugged his queen, acting cute and cute.
Speaking of which, this is the longest time I have been separated from my mother-in-law. In the past, even if I came back, I would be sent back soon.
Gu Xinrong did miss her son, but her usual character would not admit it.
He ignored his son and looked at the elders.
"Dad, Mom, Uncle Li, brothers and sisters!"
Unexpectedly, Li Yaoting was also there. As the eldest daughter in the family, she knew Li Yaoting.
"Uh-huh!"
Li Yaoting nodded and looked at Gu Xinrong, who was now over fifty years old.
"It's Xin Rong, I haven't seen you in many years!"
"Yes, because of my husband's work, I have been abroad for many years!"
Li Yaoting was aware of this situation and just nodded when he heard this.
After Gu Xinrong greeted Mrs. Gu, she turned her attention to the juniors aside. She knew Raven, Steven and Charlie. She had become friends with Yan'er when she was studying abroad.
"Hello, aunt!"
The three of them saw Gu Xinrong looking at them and hurriedly said hello together.
"Hello, are you here to celebrate Yan'er's birthday?"
"Yes, I have nothing to do today, so I just wanted to give Gu a good birthday!"
Steven spoke quickly.
"I'm determined!"
The friendship between these children is very good, and the situation at home cannot be underestimated.
Gu Xinrong's eyes did not stay on them for too long, and finally fell on Ji Youyou who was standing aside.
She has never seen this little girl, but judging from her position, she is closer to her niece-in-law. Is she her friend?
"Who is this?"
Ji Youyou didn't expect that Mr. Gu's aunt, Lin Huainan's mother, would notice her, and she was a little surprised.
When Li Muhan saw his aunt asking about Ji Youyou, he quickly turned around and pulled her to his side, ready to introduce him, but before he could open his mouth, his words were cut off.
When Lin Huainan behind him heard his mother ask about Ji Youyou, he immediately came over and took the initiative to introduce him.
"Mom, this is Ji Youyou. She is my sister-in-law's good friend and an employee of the company's design department!"
Gu Xinrong looked at her son's actions and the smile that could not be concealed on his face. She turned to look at Ji Youyou, her eyes became more and more full of scrutiny. Could this little girl have anything to do with Nan'er?
Otherwise, why would he rush to introduce me?
"Nan'er, did I ask you?"
His tone was low, obviously not very happy with his move.
Seeing that his mother seemed a little unhappy, Lin Huainan was afraid that her mother would dislike Ji Youyou because of this, so she quickly changed her tone and said,
"I just want to talk to you more. You see that you have been here for so long and haven't paid much attention to me. Your attitude towards others is better than the others. Have you forgotten that I am your dearest friend?" son!"
After saying that, she became very dissatisfied and put on a face, which successfully diverted Gu Xinrong's attention from Ji Youyou.
He raised his hand and tapped Lin Huainan's forehead.
"You don't even look at how old you are, why are you so jealous?"
Lin Huainan raised his head and snorted, the meaning was obvious!
When Gu Xinrong saw this, she smiled instead of getting angry.
"Brat!"
"Okay, don't stand here anymore!"
At this time, Mr. Gu, who had been silent until now, opened his mouth and said,
"The birthday party is only halfway through, and Mu Han's cake hasn't been cut yet!"
······ ······
After saying that, everyone returned to the restaurant together, including the newly arrived Gu Xinrong.
The cake was placed in front of Gu Chengyan, and everyone cheered for him to make a wish quickly.
Gu Chengyan originally thought this behavior was a bit childish, but when he saw Li Muhan's expectant eyes and the exquisite cake she made by herself, he instantly thought of his wish.
At the moment when the candle was lit, Gu Chengyan closed his eyes and made a sincere wish in his heart,
"The bond between life and death is broad, and we can join hands for the rest of our lives!"
After he finished making his wish, he opened his eyes, which were much brighter. He turned to look at Li Muhan who was staring at him.
"Mumu, blow out the candles with me!"
"OK!"
Seeing the joy in Gu Chengyan's eyes, she felt very happy. What she wanted was for Chengyan to look so happy, especially because of her.
He leaned down and blew out the candles on the cake together with Gu Chengyan.
With Steven taking the lead in making noises, the two of them divided the cake one by one, and the atmosphere became more and more lively.
But in this joyful atmosphere, there was one person who was very quiet, and that was Ji Youyou, who was sitting aside and silently eating the cake in his hand.
She likes this kind of atmosphere, which makes her feel full of love and care, but at the same time, this is the kind of existence she looks forward to but may never have.
There was a trace of sadness and bitterness in her heart, but she quickly suppressed it. Since you are in it now, just enjoy this moment!
Her eyes unconsciously fell on Lin Huainan opposite, who was laughing loudly with Mr. Gu's friends, and her mind recalled the way he and his mother got along just now. This was something she had never seen before.
At that moment, looking at Lin Huainan acting coquettishly with her mother, she felt in her heart that Lin Huainan like this was more vivid and real, and a little more...cute?
While she was shocked by this idea, she also felt a little want to laugh. She actually thought that guy Lin Huainan was cute. Was she crazy?
However, during this period, because I often met him at the club, I changed my mind a lot about him.
At first I only thought that he was a cynical and somewhat unconventional person, but I found that those were just appearances. He was actually very reliable, very measured, and a very meticulous person at heart.
Coupled with the many good results achieved in the film and television company, it can be seen that he really takes it seriously. These are things that she thinks are impossible to accomplish.
The relationship between the two has become more like friends who have been together for a long time.
What's more, she faintly noticed a trace of emotion in her heart that she shouldn't have.
She didn't realize it at first, but when Sister Hanhan asked her if she had anyone she liked in the afternoon, Lin Huainan's evil face immediately appeared in her mind.
At that moment, she was completely panicked and shocked by such an idea.
She wouldn't really have that unwanted thought for Lin Huainan, would she?
"Hey, what are you thinking about, so absorbed?"
Just when Ji Youyou was wondering if she really had such thoughts, Lin Huainan's voice faintly reached her ears, and she was so scared that the cake in her hand almost got stuck on Lin Huainan's face.
Looking at Ji Youyou who was looking at him like a frightened little animal, Lin Huainan became even more curious.
"You are so silent, you must be thinking of something bad!"
As he spoke, he unconsciously moved closer here.
Ji Youyou, who noticed that her face was being hit by her words and breaths, hurriedly moved her body back to think about it, and said with disgust on her face,
"Just talk, why are you so close?"
But what cannot be ignored is that her heart seemed to miss a beat.
Lin Huainan looked at Ji Youyou's very obvious expression of disgust and felt very unhappy.
"Hey, you stinky girl, do you dislike me?"
The tone of voice returned to the original state when the two looked at each other, and this also made Ji Youyou feel more comfortable like this, and her expression became much more relaxed and casual.
"You've already seen it and you still ask, are you humiliating yourself?"
Lin Huainan's slightly worried mood just now dissipated completely.
Just now I saw her with her head lowered and her expression dazed. I thought she had thought of something unhappy, and I wanted to step forward and show some concern, but what I didn't expect was...
Lin Huainan had deep doubts in his heart at this moment. Could it be that he fell in love with this little girl because he had a hidden masochistic constitution?
"My dear, I care about you. Do you...don't you want to go home?"
Fortunately, he thought about sending her home soon, so he didn't even drink a sip of wine. He was so kind-hearted that he mistook her for a donkey's liver and lungs, and it was all in vain!
There was even more anger in his heart, but he couldn't bear to get angry at the little girl. He glanced at the drink in front of him with his peripheral vision, picked up the cup and drank it all in one gulp.
Ji Youyou looked shocked when she saw Lin Huainan's actions.
"Hey, what are you doing drinking my drink?"
And she had just drank it.
After hearing this, Lin Huainan took a closer look at the cup in his hand. It was indeed the little girl's. He didn't notice this detail at all just now. He just wanted to put out the fire in his heart because she was angry with him. When he saw the drink Just drank it.
The image of the little girl holding the cup in both hands and drinking a little bit of the drink came to mind naturally, and her cheeks turned red uncontrollably.
So, this is considered an indirect kiss between the two?
Thinking of this situation, Lin Huainan felt that his throat was getting dryer. He quickly put down the cup in his hand, sat back in his seat, picked up his drink in front of him and drank it down again.
Ji Youyou also slowly realized the point of 'indirect kissing', and two blushes also appeared on her cheeks.
She also wanted to drink something to cool down the heat, but thinking about Lin Huainan's drink just now, she dared not use the cup again.
Just like that, both of them were stunned in their positions, their cheeks red.
