Despite being so excited that her heart was about to jump out of her chest, she still held onto Huo Beichen tightly.
They waited for the two children to walk up to them.
When the two children looked up at her with their bright eyes, she couldn't help but squat down and hug them on either side.
"My darling, my little darling," she called out affectionately.
"Big Brother, Second Brother," Huo Beichen called them by their own unique names.
"Dad, Mom," Zeze called out twice, her voice sweet and clear.
Liang Mufan glanced at Hua Fei and Huo Beichen's faces, her lips twitching slightly, but she ultimately remained silent.
Although Hua Fei's expectations were disappointed, she was already very satisfied that Liang Mufan could come out with Zeze.
“Little dumpling,” she said to Liang Mufan, “after the party starts, the host will invite you up on stage so everyone can get to know you. Would you like to go up on stage?”
Liang Mufan paused for a moment, then asked, "Why?"
"Because you're the birthday boy today, everyone wants to know whose birthday it is," Hua Fei replied.
Liang Mufan paused for a moment, then asked, "Did they prepare a gift for me?"
“Of course!” Hua Fei replied immediately, “Not only did they prepare gifts for you, but we did too.”
A slight smile appeared on Liang Mufan's face.
After all, they are just kids; they are happy to receive gifts and are willing to go on stage.
Hua Fei's eyes welled up with tears. She was also happy that Liang Mufan was willing to go on stage, which meant that he was slowly beginning to accept her as his mother.
However, she was completely unaware of the hint of worry and guilt that flashed across Huo Beichen's handsome eyes...
The party began, and cheerful children's songs filled the garden.
All the guests' attention was drawn to the stage.
The news that Huo Beichen had regained a son after losing him had already spread throughout the entertainment circle. Some people were genuinely happy for him, while others were filled with gossip.
The emcee, a young man, gave a passionate speech and then said, "Now, please welcome our protagonist tonight, young Liang Mufan!"
Two "Ultraman" figures, one on the left and one on the right, led Liang Mufan onto the stage, holding his hand.
Several beams of light focused on him, making his handsome and cute face shine.
The guests couldn't help but compare the resemblance between this small face and Huo Beichen in their minds. Well, although Huo Beichen's appearance can't be considered top-tier handsome, his son has the potential to make up for this regret.
"Little birthday star," the emcee asked with a smile, "so many uncles and aunts have come to celebrate your birthday today, is there anything you'd like to say?"
“Okay,” Liang Mufan readily took the microphone, “Thank you everyone, let’s start by eating cake to celebrate!”
"Hahaha!" Everyone was amused by his childish words.
Huo Beichen had already given instructions to the emcee: whatever Liang Mufan said, just do as he said.
So the emcee announced loudly, "Alright, bring out the cake!"
The cake, specially customized by Fairwhale, is six layers high, with each layer filled with Ultraman-shaped chocolates.
It no longer looks like a birthday cake, but rather like a gathering place for Ultraman.
"Wow!" Liang Mufan's big eyes widened in surprise.
For a 4-year-old boy, this is the limit of his dreams!
"Do you like it?" the emcee asked.
"like."
"This cake was specially ordered for you by your mother. Is there anything you would like to say to her?" The emcee looked at Hua Fei, who was standing to the side.
Liang Mufan looked at Hua Fei, the words on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't bring himself to say them... Hua Fei felt a pang of sadness and wanted to stop the conversation immediately.
It's too cruel to ask a 4-year-old child to forget his previous mother so quickly and accept a new one.
However, a woman's voice suddenly rang out from the stage, "He won't call her 'Mom,' because she's not his mother at all!"
The person speaking was the waiter who brought the cake up.
This waitress is Sun Xiaowei!
Hua Fei was stunned. Sun Xiaowei's appearance was completely unexpected, as was everyone else's.
This includes Huo Beichen and his assistants.
They thought that getting rid of her would solve everything, but they didn't expect that Sun Xiaowei deliberately got rid of her first to lower their guard.
Then, in this unexpected way, it appears!
"She was Huo Beichen's former fiancée."
"Yes, she's the daughter of the Sun family. She's had a pretty tough time since the bankruptcy."
"Who can argue with that? I couldn't make a living selling luxury goods, so I was forced to work as a cleaner, but even that became unsustainable..."
"..."
Amid the murmurs of the crowd, Hua Fei strode forward and pulled Liang Mufan into her arms.
Her first reaction was fear that Sun Xiaowei would hurt him.
However, Huo Beichen reacted quickly, giving the signal in a timely manner.
Assistants immediately rushed onto the stage from all directions and dragged Sun Xiaowei off the stage before she could say another word.
The movements were very fast.
It's also a bit rude.
But none of that matters.
“He’s not your child at all, he…” Sun Xiaowei seized the last chance to shout, but her mouth was quickly covered.
It was covered up completely.
Huo Beichen strode onto the stage, shielding Hua Fei and Liang Mufan in his arms, and picked up the microphone with one hand.
His voice immediately resounded throughout the room: "Ms. Sun has been looking for an opportunity to take revenge on me, but my wife and children are innocent."
“If any of Ms. Sun’s friends are here, come at me if you have any grudges. I’m only saying this once. If you hurt my wife and children, you will bear the consequences.”
After saying that, he escorted Hua Fei and Liang Mufan away.
The guests looked at each other, somewhat shocked by Huo Beichen's attitude just now.
Suddenly someone said, "I originally thought this party was Huo Beichen's way of introducing us to his wife and children."
"Now look, he wanted to use this occasion to send a warning to the Sun family!"
"President Huo has really gone to great lengths!"
"It should be said that he cares too much about his wife and children!"
That night, Liang Mufan fell asleep happily, a slight smile on his lips.
He ate an Ultraman cake before going to bed.
He said to Zeze, "Brother, I ate Ultraman. I'm even stronger now, and no one will dare to bully me."
Zeze nodded: "That person didn't manage to bully you today either. She was taken away by the uncles as soon as she appeared."
"Your mom and dad will also protect you."
Liang Mufan blinked her big eyes: "Then I'll protect them from now on."
Although he still doesn't call Hua Fei and Huo Beichen "Dad" and "Mom," they have already been included in his future plans.
A smile couldn't help but appear on Hua Fei's face.
The two children fell asleep every day to her stories.
Gazing at their little faces, Hua Fei's heart surged with emotion, a wave of sorrow washing over her...
All she asks for is to be with her two children and live a peaceful life. Is that too much to ask?
She thought she had already achieved it.
However, Sun Xiaowei's appearance today made her feel that things were not so simple.
