"Prepared by the little painter?" Ou Yangfu instantly turned green with envy, "When it’s my birthday, will the little painter also give me a birthday gift?"
"Dream on," Ye Rongyuan bluntly poured cold water on him.
Ou Yangfu sighed, knowing that he could only hope that the little painter would remember him on his birthday.
He then asked, "What did the little painter give? It’s not the same as mine, is it?"
Ye Rongyuan gave him a reassuring look, "No."
"That’s good, if it were the same, my gift would seem lame." Ou Yangfu currently believed that his gift was the best at the party.
Upon arriving at the main venue of the birthday party, the Ye family members did not allow the Ou family to entertain them further.
Except for Ou Yangfu, who continued to stay under the pretext of entertaining a good friend due to his friendship with Ye Rongyuan, Old Mr. Ou and his other four sons tactfully left.
Old Madam Ye led little one towards the buffet area, gently lowering her head and speaking softly to little one, "Ann, are you hungry?"
Qin Sui’an shook her head innocently, "Not hungry."
She had eaten enough snacks in the afternoon, so she didn’t feel hungry at the moment.
Old Madam Ye raised her lips slightly, "Let’s see if there’s any food you like first."
Occasionally, a few bolder individuals from the crowd would come forward to talk to the Ye family. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
The Ye family responded politely but with little warmth, showing no intention of chatting further. The topics were almost perfunctory, and after exchanging pleasantries, the other party would immediately find an excuse to leave.
Many people were also whispering, but their discussions were very cautious, avoiding saying anything they shouldn’t:
"Is the little baby girl Old Madam Ye is holding her granddaughter?"
"She’s so pretty! Like a star!"
"She looks so well-behaved and cute. I really want to go over and hold her!"
"The little baby girl looks like her mother. I’ve seen Old Madam Ye’s daughter before, and she was almost identical to this little baby girl when she was young."
"Oh, the little baby girl is looking over here!"
"Can she hear what we’re saying? We’re speaking pretty quietly..."
...
Qin Sui’an looked at the aunts over there and blinked her round eyes.
Old Madam Ye noticed her gaze and glanced at the people over there, who were the wives of the CEOs of Zhao Group, Qian Group, Sun Group, and Li Group.
When they met Old Madam Ye’s gaze, they visibly trembled, their flustered expressions revealing that they had just been whispering about the Ye family, which was definitely related to them.
Old Madam Ye withdrew her gaze, thinking of little one’s extraordinary hearing ability. She squatted down, gently asking, "Ann, what’s wrong?"
"Grandma, those aunts said Ann looks a lot like mommy~" Qin Sui’an’s childish voice couldn’t conceal her joy. She had heard this kind of thing before, but it always made her very happy.
Old Madam Ye’s eyes curved with a smile, "Yes, you do look alike."
So they were discussing that.
Just in case, Old Madam Ye glanced at Lucy with a meaningful look.
Lucy nodded understandingly and turned to walk towards the wives of the CEOs.
When Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Qian, Mrs. Sun, and Mrs. Li saw Old Madam Ye’s assistant walking towards them, they became even more flustered.
"Did we say something wrong?"
"We’re so far away! We didn’t speak that loudly..."
"Oh no, oh no..."
