As it turns out, Zhao Bo's concerns were entirely correct.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he received a firm objection from Yi An: "What are you thinking! That birthday party was specially prepared to get Xiao Bao's sample! What if something goes wrong if you do this? Are you out of your mind!"

Zhao Bo was so embarrassed by Yi An's scolding that he couldn't lift his head. He was only angered by Dong Wenjun for a moment, and his words came out too quickly, and he couldn't control himself.

Zhao Bo quietly tried to justify himself: "Maybe it can help in some way? With more people involved, things will get better."

"Good my ass!"

Yi'an couldn't help but swear.

Su Yan, who had been silently thinking, suddenly spoke up at this moment: "I think this is actually a good idea."

When Yi'an got angry, she instinctively turned around and retorted, "Your brain must be soaked in water too..."

When he saw Su Yan's frightened expression, his voice immediately dropped to a whisper.

He touched his nose in a mocking manner. "What do you think of this idea?"

After careful consideration, Su Yan cautiously spoke: "Although my appearance may upset Lin Hui, if we make good use of her psychology, we can make her feel more at ease and completely let down her guard. In this way, our plan can be completed more smoothly."

As Zhao Bo listened to her detailed explanation, he couldn't help but clap and agree: "Yes, that's exactly what I think!"

He turned his head and deliberately kicked Yi An's chair, smugly saying, "Who's the pig-brain here!"

Seeing his smug look, Yi An was so angry that she raised her hand to hit him, but she hesitated because Su Yan was there.

He cleared his throat, trying to justify himself: "Actually, that's what I was thinking too. I was just scolding him for being too hasty. How can you be so hasty? Be more careful next time, you hear me?"

As Yi An spoke, she patted Zhao Bo's back meaningfully.

That slap almost knocked out Zhao Bo's lungs.

Zhao Bo clutched his injured chest, coughed, and tried to maintain a smile.

"I've learned my lesson."

Meng Jie's birthday party, which Lin Hui had been eagerly anticipating, finally arrived.

She had already ordered her clothes and dressed up in front of the mirror early in the morning.

She must be the brightest star tonight, only then can she live up to the title of the future daughter-in-law of the Yi family.

Mrs. Lin led Yi Kangle, who was dressed in a suit, in with a smile.

"Huihui, that's enough, you look beautiful enough, we should go!" she urged.

When Yi Kangle saw Lin Hui's wide skirt, his eyes widened in surprise, and he exclaimed, "Mom's clothes are so beautiful!"

Lin Hui was already in a good mood, and after hearing his praise, she became even more amiable.

She pinched Yi Kangle's little face, "Little Bao, you're so good at talking. Mommy likes you especially today."

"Stop talking here, or your mother-in-law will keep waiting! Let's go!"

Madam Lin has now changed how she addresses Meng Jie, and in her view, Lin Hui becoming the Yi family's daughter-in-law is a foregone conclusion.

The Lin family arrived at the birthday party's destination by car, where Meng Jie, the main character, had already arrived.

Madam Lin immediately put on a smiling face and, ignoring Lin Hui behind her, came forward to greet her.

"Happy birthday, Mr. Meng. This is just a small token of my appreciation."

She shoved a huge gift box into Meng Jie's hands.

Meng Jie didn't even glance at her, casually tossing her aside. She looked into the distance, at Lin Hui, who was late because her skirt was too big and she was tripping over it.

Just as Lin Hui was about to greet him, Meng Jie spoke first: "Yi An is inside, go find him, you're in a hurry to bring Xiao Bao along."

Upon hearing such straightforward words, Lin Hui's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said, "Aunt Meng, I will definitely not let you down!"

She turned and took Yi Kangle's hand, "Xiao Bao, let's go see Daddy, come on!"

Upon hearing that he could see Yi An, Yi Kangle immediately became excited and skipped into the banquet hall.

Yi An was calmly entertaining the early guests when she suddenly heard a sweet voice calling out, "Daddy!"

He turned his head and looked over. The moment he saw Yi Kangle, his eyes lit up.

He squatted down, spreading his arms wide, "Xiao Bao."

Yi Kangle ran clumsily with his calves and plunged headfirst into Yi An's arms.

"Dad, I miss you so much. Why don't you come to see me or pick me up?"

His words were filled with grievance.

Yi An's throat was full of bitterness. "I'm sorry, Xiao Bao, it's all Daddy's fault. Daddy won't do it again."

Lin Hui watched the scene of the father and son reunited, slowly curled the corners of her mouth, lifted her skirt and walked over.

Yi An released Yi Kangle, whose eyes were red-rimmed, and stared blankly at Lin Hui. "Why did you bring him here? Didn't you say..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Hui raised her hand to interrupt him.

“Brother An, I’ve thought about it for a long time, but in the end I just can’t bear it. Xiao Bao can’t be without his father. So, I give in.”

She forced a smile and said in a casual tone.

Yi An's eyelashes trembled slightly. She stared at her for a long while before managing to utter, "I'm sorry, it was my fault."

Lin Hui was both surprised and delighted when she heard his apology, but in order to maintain her image as someone who repays evil with kindness, she could not show it at all.

She gave a bitter smile. "Brother An, you don't need to apologize. If you and Su Yan are happy, then I'm willing to let go. Let me bear the pain alone."

Yi An moved swiftly and reached out to grab her hand.

"Don't say things like that. I was wrong before. I misjudged people and didn't take care of a girl as good as you. Now, I want to start over. Can you give me a chance?"

Looking into his earnest eyes, Lin Hui's lips began to curl upwards uncontrollably.

Her eyelashes trembled twice, and she grabbed Yi An's hand in return. "Brother An, I can, I can for a lifetime."

"Then there's no need for any other nonsense."

Yi An held her hand tightly, as if she had grasped a lost treasure that had been found again.

Lin Hui looked at him holding her hand with one hand and Yi Kangle's hand with the other, and a shy and bashful smile involuntarily appeared on her face.

Meng Jie stood not far away, watching the two of them cuddling together, and let out a cold snort from her nose.

She walked slowly forward and said to the two men with a blank expression, "Leave the child to me, you two go to the door."

As she said this, she also gave Lin Hui a wink.

Lin Hui instantly understood what she meant, feeling both excited and nervous.

"Then I'll have to trouble Aunt Meng."

Yi An turned her head and patted Yi Kangle's head, smiling indulgently, "Little Bao, be a good boy and listen to Grandma, okay?"

Yi Kangle nodded understandingly, let go of Meng Jie's hand, and ran to her side.

After settling Yi Kangle in, Yi An turned to look at Lin Hui with a smile and said softly, "Let's go."
