Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
That's it? This?
But, you know, Qiao Lao Er always looks kind of stupid, what a waste of that face of his, tsk!
Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
What did I do wrong?!
"I like you, Uncle." Suddenly, Lu Si'an said in a childish voice.
The two were chatting and didn't expect the little guy to interrupt. But that makes sense, since Lu Siyuan and Lu Si'an can now understand the adults' conversations and occasionally chime in.
Regardless of whether it's right or wrong, being proactive is the right thing to do, after all, this age is a time when the desire to express oneself is very strong.
"Oh my!" Qiao Gaoyang instantly understood Leng Yingying's desire to steal the child.
From questioning to understanding.
“Our little An’an is not only beautiful, but also has a sweet tongue. Uncle loves you to death!” Qiao Gaoyang said.
Leng Yingying was a little unhappy and immediately asked, "Does An'an like me?"
Lu Si'an looked at Leng Yingying and blinked.
She and her brother had just discovered that this aunt was very strange. Sometimes she clearly didn't open her mouth, but they could still hear her speaking. It was amazing!
"Auntie, you're amazing! An'an, I love it!" Lu Si'an said, revealing a sweet smile.
[Help... The female lead is truly the female lead; even her child possesses enchanting powers! Ahhhhhh, help! I really want to steal her away!]
Qiao Gaoyang suppressed a laugh, feeling that Leng Yingying seemed easier to coax than he had imagined, but when she faced him, she didn't seem so easy to coax anymore.
Why!
Lu Siyuan nestled in his uncle's arms, staring intently at Leng Yingying's face, particularly her mouth.
It hasn't fully developed yet!
But then I heard my aunt's voice again!
"Auntie, you're amazing!" Lu Siyuan said, his big eyes staring at Leng Yingying, dark and bright.
"Good lad!" Leng Yingying gave him a thumbs up. "You have a keen eye!"
Although she didn't quite understand why the two little ones praised her for being so amazing, it didn't stop Leng Yingying from thoroughly enjoying the compliment.
"Hehe..." Lu Siyuan and Lu Si'an laughed at the same time.
[The female lead has two children, so it wouldn't be unreasonable for me to steal one, right?]
Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
They've actually started considering it?
“I understand what you mean now. You only like good-looking kids, but you don’t like ugly kids,” Qiao Gaoyang said.
Leng Yingying glanced at him and retorted, "Doesn't this prove that I have normal aesthetic sense?"
Who would specifically choose to like ugly kids? Have they got their brains squeezed in a door?
Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
Okay, very good!
Lu Zhengjun's brothers were also there. After greeting Su Yueya, they took their seats. When they saw Lu Siyuan and Lu Si'an, they couldn't help but think of Lu Zhengjun.
For a moment, the atmosphere seemed somewhat out of place with the joy surrounding them.
"If only Zhengjun were still here..." Zhao Yunshan couldn't hold back his sobs. Looking at the two children reminded him of Lu Zhengjun and many moments he shared with his good brother.
Zhang Yufeng, Liu Qi, and Wei Jinxiang remained silent.
They felt the same way as Zhao Yunshan; how could they not miss their best brothers during such a time?
"Zhengjun died so unjustly!" Zhang Yufeng said bitterly.
Among the brothers, he and Lu Zhengjun were both regimental commanders. When they went to carry out the mission, no one took it seriously.
After all, with Lu Zhengjun's abilities, he could complete that kind of mission in less than half a month and return safely, making it a brilliant achievement on his resume.
Who could have imagined that he would never return after going there!
Were they blown up by enemy agents inside a medical tent?
"Exactly! I just can't understand it. Even if he fell into the enemy's lair, Zhengjun should have been able to escape. How could he—" Wei Jinxiang couldn't even finish the sentence. He slammed his fist into his thigh.
“Husband,” Wei Jinxiang’s wife, He Yalan, grasped his fist and said softly, “Today is a joyous occasion. Don’t do this. What if Yueya sees this and it makes her sad too…”
After all, the dead cannot be brought back to life. Even if they are very sad, what can they do?
Can anything be changed?
On the contrary, it makes the living suffer even more.
"I understand," Wei Jinxiang said, wiping away the tears he almost couldn't hold back. With his eyes reddening, he encouraged Zhao Yunshan and the others, "Brothers, don't be like this. Zhengjun will always be in our hearts, even if she's out there!"
"That's right!" Zhao Yunshan was immediately ignited. "Although Zhengjun is no longer here, we will protect Zhengjun's wife and children together from now on!"
"Of course!" the brothers said in unison.
“I think both of Zhengjun’s children are quite good-looking, which means that Yueya has taken good care of them,” He Yalan said.
Everyone looked at Lu Siyuan and Lu Si'an, as if they could vaguely see a trace of Lu Zhengjun in the little ones.
"I think Xiao Yuan is more like Zheng Jun. Wasn't Zheng Jun like that when she was a child? But Xiao Yuan smiles more than Zheng Jun. Zheng Jun was an old man when she was a child. She didn't smile much and loved to pretend to be serious!"
They started joking around again, because they were brothers who grew up together and knew each other and their families very well.
"The Emperor is a serious man by nature. Do you think everyone is as stupid as you?"
Zhao Yunshan, who was called a fool, was not convinced and immediately retaliated.
"Hey, what are you saying? As if you were some kind of genius when you were little? You were always the one who got caught causing trouble!"
"That's because I'm taking responsibility. If I don't take responsibility for you, who will?"
"Fine, fine, you can say whatever you want, huh!"
Once all the guests had arrived, Su Yueya made arrangements for everyone and then the banquet began.
She specially ordered today's menu, without calculating the price, just wanting her close friends to eat and drink well and celebrate Lu Siyuan and Lu Si'an's birthday together.
In such a lively, beautiful, and heartwarming moment, Su Yueya looked at everyone, but Lu Zhengjun's face kept appearing in her mind.
She often thought of Lu Zhengjun, but most of the time it was at night, when all was quiet.
People are always most honest in those moments.
You can't hide or deceive who you care about most in your heart.
How is Lu Zhengjun doing now?
It has been almost two years since Lu Zhengjun left after her "fake death".
In the past two years, Su Yueya has experienced a lot on her own.
From the time she discovered she was pregnant until now, Lu Siyuan and Lu Si'an have been born for a full year.
I wonder when Lu Zhengjun will be able to come back, to see her, and to see the two adorable little ones...
The first birthday party went very smoothly, and everyone enjoyed the meal. The two little ones were surrounded by a group of people who praised them for a long time until they were too tired to continue and were taken to rest.
Afterwards, the family took their two little ones back to the compound.
"Go, walk by yourself." Lu Siyuan, who had been being carried by Qiao Shouyan, struggled to get down after returning to the courtyard and said he wanted to walk by himself.
