"Grandpa, we're back!"

After leaving the library, Xiao Yanbao and his seven older brothers headed straight for the banquet hall.

The little boy ran to Grandpa Li's side immediately, tilted his little face up, and reported to his grandfather.

Her soft, sweet voice instantly melts people's hearts.

"Yanbao, let Grandpa give you a hug!"

The old man of the Li family smiled gently at his little baby with loving eyes, then picked her up and let her sit on his lap.

The seven Calabash Brothers who followed Xiao Yanbao back to the banquet hall stood obediently to the side, never receiving the same treatment as Xiao Yanbao.

The old man of the Li family looked down at the little baby in his arms and asked gently, "What did Yanbao just do?"

The old man was worried because he hadn't seen his beloved granddaughter for a long time, fearing that something might happen to the little one in such a crowded place.

Seeing his beloved granddaughter safe and sound, the old man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Little Yanbao looked up at Grandpa Li again, blinking her clear, bright eyes, and said in her childish voice:

"Grandpa, my brothers took Yan Yan to play hide-and-seek. Hide-and-seek is so much fun! If I have the chance, I want to play hide-and-seek again."

Although some thrilling things happened during the process, overall, the little one had a lot of fun.

After all, she had been looking forward to playing hide-and-seek for a long time.

Back in the village, the children would often gather together to play all sorts of games, but they never allowed Xiao Yanbao to join in. Xiao Yanbao could only stand aside and watch enviously.

Now, she can play hide-and-seek too, and her seven older brothers play with her!

Thinking of this, the little boy's smile became even brighter, and his naturally curved eyes resembled crescent moons in the sky.

Cute and adorable, carefree.

Grandpa Li unconsciously reached out and stroked the head of the little bundle of joy in his arms, his eyes crinkling slightly as he said, completely submissive:

"Since our Yanbao likes playing hide-and-seek, how about we let your older brothers play hide-and-seek with Yanbao often from now on?"

As he spoke, the old man glanced at his seven Calabash Brothers.

The seven gourd brothers were startled and quickly stood at attention, nodding vigorously in agreement with the old man's words.

Yes! They will all play hide-and-seek with Xiao Yanbao!

Hearing Grandpa's words, the little boy clapped his hands excitedly and said with a big smile, "Okay, okay! Thank you, Grandpa!"

The old man of the Li family smiled so kindly, as if he could satisfy his little dumpling's every whim.

"Yanbao is such a lovely child!"

Ever since Xiao Yanbao appeared, Ye Hong's gaze has been fixed on her, his eyes filled with kindness.

Looking at little Yanbao nestled in Old Master Li's arms like a tiny glutinous rice ball, Ye Hong unconsciously said to Old Master Li:

"I really envy you."

Having such a cute, adorable, and lovable granddaughter is truly enviable!

Upon hearing this, the old man of the Li family looked up at Ye Hong and said very generously, "No need to be envious. Yanbao is my little granddaughter, and she is also your little granddaughter. If you are willing, you can stay here. We will live and die together, share joys and sorrows, just like when we were in the army."

Upon hearing this, Ye Hong laughed heartily and said, "If you sincerely invite me, then I won't stand on ceremony!"

Ye Hong thought that the old man of the Li family was joking with him, so he unconsciously responded in a joking tone.

However, the old man of the Li family was serious...

This banquet was to celebrate the 70th birthday of the Li family patriarch, but the patriarch wanted to take this opportunity to officially announce Xiao Yanbao's identity to everyone in the industry.

The old man of the Li family wanted the whole world to know—

The Li family had been eagerly awaiting this for so many years, and finally, they had a lovely and beautiful little princess!

So when addressing the guests, the old man of the Li family simply carried little Yanbao onto the stage.

The guests qualified to attend the Li family banquet were all prominent figures in high society, each one a shrewd and calculating individual. The moment the Li family patriarch carried Xiao Yanbao onto the stage, everyone knew in their hearts that this adorable little baby was undoubtedly the patriarch's favorite.

As a result, everyone's eyes turned to Xiao Yanbao.

After finishing his remarks about the birthday celebration, the old master of the Li family smiled and continued speaking to the guests below:

"Today, I would like to take this opportunity to formally introduce my beloved granddaughter to everyone."

The old patriarch of the Li family turned to look at little Yanbao, whom he was holding in his arms, his eyes filled with love and doting affection.

"Her name is Li Xinyan. She is the only daughter of our Li family and the apple of everyone's eye. Please take good care of my granddaughter in the future."

This statement alone is enough to prove how important the little girl is to the old man of the Li family.

The guests below all understood, and they smiled and applauded in tacit agreement, as if welcoming the arrival of the young lady of the Li family.

In an instant, Xiao Yanbao became the star of the banquet, a beloved little darling among the many guests.

In addition, she is pretty and cute, like a delicate porcelain doll, and many guests want to take photos with her.

Little Yanbao doesn't know how to refuse yet; she agrees to take photos with anyone who comes up to her.
