Guo Jinnian said, "Well, let tell you that at that ti, I saw you walking out like a lady, having a dignified deanor. I was losing my patience, but it was good to have you there in the end, otherwise, I would have been drowned in the water too."
Han Enzhen was a bit embarrassed about this, "If it wasn’t for taking you guys the wrong way, the things that happened afterward wouldn’t have occurred at all."
Listening to the two won thanking each other, the n present all started laughing, only Fu Sen and Gu Hongwei, who knew that Han Enzhen almost died, felt a pain in their chest.
Han Enzhen and Guo Jinnian chatted happily, completely ignoring Fu Sen, who wasn’t angry about this.
Soon, all guests arrived and the dishes started to be served. Fu Sen kindly helped Han Enzhen with her al, but she would always return the food to his bowl. After this repeated twice, Fu Sen whispered a warning, "If you don’t want to propose marriage to you tomorrow, then eat your food obediently."
Han Enzhen glared at him angrily, "Fu Sen, you are going way too far. You are an old man, trying to pursue young love? I am telling you, say whatever you want to, even if my parents and grandpa agree, I will not marry you."
Hearing the term "old man", Cheng Feng was shocked. He never expected that the noble son, whom every woman in Kyoto longed to marry, would be terd an "old man" by Han Enzhen.
However, recognizing Han Enzhen’s status, Cheng Feng understood.
Fu Sen glanced at Cheng Feng, then distinctly said, "As you know, old n are cunning. As long as you are obedient, I won’t force you."
Han Enzhen glared at him one more ti and didn’t respond. However, she didn’t return the food he passed to her again. Yet, she chewed her food as though she were biting Fu Sen, looking fierce like a small tiger.
On the other side of the table, Lin Jinwu and Tong Xiangqiao grumbled while eating, "My second elder brother has beco wealthy, organizing such an extravagant feast. I hope he doesn’t bankrupt himself. This al must have cost dozens of yuan."
Tong Xiangqiao, with a big chicken leg in her mouth, said, "You already said our second elder brother is rich, he doesn’t care about this amount of money! We should try to eat more! I have lived for half of my life, but this is the first ti I am eating such delicious food. I guess this will also probably be the last ti."
Each dish on this table wasn’t cheap, they cost more than her monthly salary. Anyway, Tong Xiangqiao wouldn’t have treated herself to such a al.
Tong Zhiyuan sniffed, despisingly comnted, "This is stupid, it is wasteful extravagance, spending so much money inviting outsiders to wine and dine. Does our ho have a gold or silver mine to support this? We should never have compromised and let our inherited house go."
Although he comnted like this, his chopsticks didn’t stop, he kept eating one morsel after another.
Lin Jinwu said, "Elder brother, don’t overthink. If they didn’t host a feast like this, how could we have had the chance to eat this delicious food? Now, their business is getting bigger. Many who ca to dine today are big bosses. Our second elder brother is incomparable to his forr self. We should fight with him less and offend him less in the future."
We may get good fortune possibly in the future, after all, Tong Yaohui’s life is getting better. He can’t ignore us when we are in trouble, can he?
Tong Zhiyuan, acting high and mighty said, "What’s the use of doing a big business? Wasn’t he born a girl? In the future, all the wealth will belong to soone else. Does this respect our ancestors?"
Tong Zhiyuan was stuck in his old ways of thinking, strongly favoring male children. He believed that wealth should be inherited by sons to keep it within the family na and that passing it to daughters ant it went to a stranger, which was not right.
Hearing them talk like this, Tong Xiangqiao suddenly rembered her own daughter. She bit her lip to hold back her tears, "If Manman was alive today, she should have had children by now. Poor Manman, she married into a good family but did not live long."
Once Tong Xiangqiao ntioned her daughter, Lin Jinwu also felt uncomfortable, he glared at her, "Why are you bringing this up now? If our second elder brother and his wife see you crying, they’ll be upset."
Although he still held a grudge against Tong Yaohui, Lin Jinwu dared not quarrel with him face to face, as they were no longer on the sa level.
Now, Tong Yaohui has beco a wealthy boss and is mingling with other bosses. When he holds a feast, it is always at a grand restaurant, which they can never match.
If there were really a quarrel, they wouldn’t be able to take on Tong Yaohui and being kicked out would be disgraceful.
Tong Xiangqiao wiped away her tears and remained quiet, but whatever she ate didn’t seem delicious anymore.
Although she also favored boys over girls, Lin Man was her daughter after all. She died such a tragic death, how can she not feel the pain when she thinks of her?
Tong Yao, who was busy toasting to each table, did not notice the anomaly at their table. From ti to ti, she would look outside, as Wang Chun had called earlier saying she would return, but there was still no sign of her. She wondered if Wang Chun had returned or was delayed due to so issue.
Wang Chun was already aware of Zhao Wenkai’s situation, and had been sad for a long ti. So, she didn’t dare to return, fearing that she wouldn’t be able to face the reality. Therefore, she floated around outside for a year, only deciding to return upon hearing that Tong Yao had a baby.
Tong Yao also hoped that she could use this opportunity to help her move on. Despite knowing how hard it would be, she hoped for a wonderful future for Wang Chun.
With this in mind, she looked outside again, and saw a familiar figure appearing at the entrance. Tong Yao’s eyes lit up, and she turned to Si Chen, "Achun is here."
Upon saying this, she quickly walked toward Wang Chun. It had been a long ti since they last t, Wang Chun still looked as beautiful as before. However, there was always a trace of sadness in her eyes, which could not be hidden even when she smiled.
Tong Yao was very distressed to see this, "Achun, you finally made it here. I was starting to wonder if you wouldn’t be able to make it."
Wang Chun handed the gift in her hand to Tong Yao and smiled stiffly at her long-ti-no-see friend, "Yaoyao, it’s your baby’s Full Moon Wine Ceremony, how could I not co? This is a gift I brought for the baby."
"Thank you." Tong Yao held Wang Chun’s hand and walked towards Guo Jinnian’s table, "Sit down first and have so food. We have just started the feast. You’ll stay with us tonight, we can chat then."
After all, it was a banquet, so Tong Yao couldn’t chat much with Wang Chun. Everyone was eating, so it wasn’t appropriate for them to stand and chat.
Wang Chun nodded, seeing Si Chen coming over, she greeted him, "Dr. Si."
Si Chen nodded in response, and imdiately asked Gu Hongwei and Guo Jinnian to help take care of Wang Chun.
"So you are Achun? I often hear Yaoyao talk about you, I’m Guo Jinnian, also a friend of Yaoyao’s." Guo Jinnian greeted Wang Chun warmly.
