After they left, the guests on both sides began to whisper among themselves.
"Having Wu Cunxu and two such adorable children... isn't that killing three birds with one stone? What reason is there not to marry him!"
"I rarely see Mr. Wu in public. I never expected him to be so young and handsome. I thought he was an old man."
"Hey you guys, is the marriage-obsessed phase starting?"
"Today is the Song family's home turf, so let's take this opportunity to visit the Song family's eldest son, the one who's in his second year of high school."
"What do you mean? You're thinking about your daughter now?"
As the group was chatting enthusiastically, two people walked in through the door, and they were quite a sight to behold.
A young man in a high-quality suit, and a beautiful girl in a purple dress beside him.
"Look, this is Song Wenzhi."
"Who is that girl next to you?"
Song Wenzhi's gaze swept across the group in the hall, and when he saw where Wu Yue was, he led Zhou Yunwei through the crowd to her location.
"Yueyue~"
Before coming here, Zhou Yunwei was still somewhat conflicted and hesitant, but now that she saw Wu Yue was also there, she unconsciously felt at ease and relaxed.
Wu Yue waved and gestured: "Yunwei."
"Ahhh."
When Song Wenzhi saw the two little ones, his eyes practically popped out of his head, and he almost rolled his eyes: "My God, Tianwuyue! I'm going to become withdrawn like Lao Que! They call me Brother Wenzhi and you Auntie, my seniority has instantly dropped..."
"We're not related, we're just classmates, call me whatever you want."
The girl said very seriously, "Of course, if you want to call me 'little aunt,' I don't mind."
Thick, long eyelashes drooped gently, casting a bluish shadow on her eyelids. Her delicate, fair skin appeared even whiter under the white light, making her look exquisitely beautiful.
"No! Wu Yue, this is fine as it is." Song Wenzhi waved his hand.
"You two go ahead and have fun. Lunzi and Lao Que will be here soon. I'll go and entertain a few friends first."
Before leaving, Song Wenzhi pinched Wu Tingyun's face twice; it felt incredibly soft and tender.
"..."
Wu Tingyun pouted and glared at Song Wenzhi unhappily. But this was someone else's territory, and he couldn't make a move.
And with the young couple not around, he's just a helpless child...
Song Wenzhi left.
The trio added one more person to continue eating.
After they had filled their stomachs, they sat in a corner and chatted.
With the heating on indoors, Wu Tingyun and Wu Nian, both wearing two-piece suits, began to feel a bit hot. Unlike other ladies in evening gowns, who showed off their shoulders and legs, the two of them were dressed quite warmly.
"Auntie, can I take off my coat?"
When Wu Nian pulled her aside and whispered something, Wu Yue was stunned. This was the first time she had heard Wu Nian speak in all the time they had known each other.
She glanced at Wu Nian's flushed face, her expression softening slightly: "You're only allowed to take it off for a short while. Put your coat back on in five minutes."
Wu Nian nodded obediently: "Okay."
Wu Tingyun seized the opportunity and shouted, "I want one too!"
After the brother and sister took off their coats, they revealed small red jade pendants hanging around their necks. The exquisite jade emitted a peaceful and warm glow, though ordinary people could not see this light.
Wu Yue's heart skipped a beat.
Then, he chuckled softly.
Wu Cunxu is truly remarkable. Whether he did it intentionally or genuinely cared about the gifts she gave to the children, Wu Yue admitted that she was somewhat moved after just a few days.
Without realizing it, they all wanted to stand on his side, accepting this blood ties.
As I was thinking, the sofa next to me sank slightly.
Someone sat down next to her.
A familiar and pleasant faint fragrance floated in the air.
Yan Chiyu glanced at Wu Yue's bare neck out of the corner of his eye, deliberately lowered his voice, and asked in a deep and seductive tone, "Didn't you bring Lu Shu today?"
“He hasn’t returned since I sent him to spy on the enemy. I’m starting to suspect that he might have abandoned the darkness for the light, or rather, defected to the enemy.” Wu Yue took a sip of his cocktail and replied in a voice only he could hear, “When I saw Tingyun today, I didn’t sense any trace of Fuzhu. Neither of them should be here.”
