Chapter 55: Intimate Private Conversation



The Mi family arrived, and Yi Wei went to greet them with the child in his arms. His adoptive mother had hardly ever left the house since she returned to China. The last time she went to their college was her first time out of the house, and this time was her second time out of the house, and she came specifically to attend her grandson's full moon banquet.

"Mom." Yi Wei called out with a smile, and then greeted the other members of the Mi family one by one.

Michelle raised her hands, took the child from Yi Wei's hands and held him in her arms. She looked at the child with a smile and asked, "Baby, do you miss grandma?"

Yi Wei personally pushed the wheelchair for his adoptive mother and took the Mi family to the seats specially prepared for the child's maternal grandparents.

"Is the child used to being back here?" Michelle asked.

"This child doesn't recognize the place at all. He eats when he should eat and sleeps when he should sleep. He doesn't cry or make a fuss. He is really worry-free and easy to raise." Yi Wei sat down next to the foster mother, smiled and touched the child's fair and tender face with his fingers.

"The child is in good health." Michelle gently held the child's fist and said, "I have been watching him every day since he was born. It has been almost two months. I haven't seen him for just a few days, but I have been thinking about him in my heart."

"As long as I have time, I will bring him back to see you often." Yi Wei held the child's other hand and whispered, "I've been busy with my studies since then, and Director Gu is also busy with work. There is no elder in the Gu family who we can trust to take care of the child. I can only send him to the Mi family often in the future. Please ask mom to help me take care of him."

"I would be happy to take care of him. As long as you can rest assured and leave him to me, I will take care of him in the best and most appropriate way." Michelle watched the child being born and felt the magic and meaning of life again. She really liked this child, and taking care of this child was a happy thing for her.

"Of course we are relieved. Apart from mom, no one else can make us feel more at ease." Yi Wei said with a smile. He felt that when they were busy, it would be better for the children to have real relatives and elders to take care of them. They would feel more at ease. Moreover, Anna took care of him when he grew up, and now she helped take care of his children. It was quite meaningful.

Except for Yi Bo, all the people from the Yi family came, including Yi Hong and Zhao Zhen.

Yi Hong and Zhao Zhen looked at the people from the Mi family sitting at the child's grandparents' seat, and Yi Wei and Mi Xue were so close, as if they were really mother and son, which made them feel very uncomfortable.

Zhao Zhen complained to Yi Hong in a low voice: "We are the child's grandparents. Since we came in, Yi Wei has not only not come to greet us, but also not even looked at us. Even if he is an ordinary guest, he should come to greet me out of courtesy."

"This child is too angry. We were indeed a little better to Yi Xuan than to him before, but it's not worth him hating us so much." Yi Hong shook his head and sighed, "Maybe he and we really don't have the fate of being father and son, otherwise he wouldn't have been taken away by the wrong person when he was born."

"But look at Yi Wei and Director Gu's attitude towards the Mi family. From now on, all the benefits will belong to the Mi family. I feel unwilling to accept this. We are Yi Wei's biological parents and have raised him for several years. Why should all the benefits be taken by the Mi family?!" Zhao Zhen became more and more angry as she spoke.

"Okay, okay." Yi Hong looked around and said, "Stop talking. If you want to say anything, wait until you get back. If you say these things here, it will be laughed at if others hear it."

"I can't stay here anymore. I'll go see if Shuqin is feeling better." Zhao Zhen said and was about to leave.

"Wait until the banquet is over before going." Yi Hong held her back and said, "If you go now, what's the difference between that and not coming at all? It would be better if you didn't come at all."

Jiang Shuqin did not come today because she was sick and she did not want to come, but she was indeed really sick and felt very unwell, so she was unable to attend her child's double full moon banquet.

Yi Wei has already married Gu Yueshan, and even their child is born. No matter what others think, or even what the Gu family thinks, Yi Wei has already taken the position of the wife of the head of the Gu family. At this moment, she is sitting next to Gu Yueshan, holding her child, and accepting the blessings of the guests with a smile.

When it was time for the banquet, most of the guests had arrived. With so many people, it would not be good for the child to stay for too long, and Michelle also did not like to stay in crowded places for a long time. So Yi Wei sent the child and Michelle back to the yard to rest before returning to the hall.

Gu Heng sat next to Xu Hua, and Yi Xuan sat next to Gu Heng. The two of them forced themselves to stay awake. After the meal started, even though they couldn't eat, they pretended to be calm and forced themselves to eat bite by bite. From time to time, the two of them looked at Yi Wei who was sitting next to Gu Yueshan. Even the two old ladies could only sit below, but Yi Wei could be said to have taken the position of the master of the Gu family almost overnight.

Gu Heng had actually thought about it before, that Yi Wei might marry his fourth uncle, but when it really happened, he was still hit hard, and it was a double blow. Yi Wei had been engaged to him before, and he had actually been attracted to Yi Wei. If he hadn't loved Yi Xuan so much, he would have really thought about being with Yi Wei, but Yi Wei was now his fourth aunt, and had given birth to a child for his fourth uncle, who was his cousin, and the birth of this child would be the biggest obstacle in his life.

After eating for a while, Gu Yueshan turned to look at Yi Wei and asked, "Are you tired? Do you want to go back to the yard and rest for a while?"

"Not tired." Yi Wei smiled and said, "How can I be tired just sitting there? Besides, today is our child's double full moon banquet. I am happy in my heart, even if I am tired, I am happy."

Gu Yueshan held Yi Wei's hand and said, "There are so many people here today, and they all came to greet you. How could you not be tired? I am happy, but I don't want you to force yourself to do it. It's okay for you to go see the kids and take a rest. I will stay here and I won't lose my manners."

"The baby is already two months old, and my body has recovered. I am recovering quickly and well." Yi Wei held Gu Yueshan's hand and said with a slightly red face and lowered his head.

Gu Yueshan leaned in closer and looked at him and said, "I know, that's why I asked you to go look after the child and take a rest. I'll take care of this here."

The two of them huddled together to talk about some private things, almost face to face. In the eyes of others, they couldn't be more intimate.

Gu Yueshan raised his hand and touched Yi Wei's slightly hot face and said, "Go."

Yi Wei got up and went back to the yard to look after the children and take a rest. After watching him leave, Gu Yueshan got up to toast and talk to the guests.

Yi Wei returned to the yard. The child had fallen asleep. He was leaning back on the bed, talking in a low voice to Michelle and Anna.

More than an hour later, the banquet was cleared away and the guests were sitting or standing and chatting.

After the child woke up, Yi Wei carried the child back to the hall. Friends and relatives gave the child many gifts, and Yi Wei carried the child to thank them.

Gu Yueshan asked Yi Wei to keep all the gifts and cash gifts for the children. In fact, everyone knew that keeping them for the children meant letting Yi Wei manage and control them.

Gu Yueshan also prepared gifts for the children, one of which was Lai Hai Villa, and he asked Yi Wei to accept it on behalf of the children. Laihai Villa had actually been given to Yi Wei a long time ago, but they used this opportunity to let Yi Wei accept it on behalf of the child so that Yi Wei could use it freely and openly in the future.

Other things were fine, but when they heard about Laihai Villa, the faces of the Gu family members became strange, especially the two old ladies and Gu Heng. Although Gu Yueshan bought Lai Hai Villa with his own money and through some connections, to the Gu family, Lai Hai Villa is one of the symbols of the Gu family's wealth. Now he actually gave it to Yi Wei, saying it was for the child, but the child is so young, and Yi Wei is asked to keep it for the child first. What's the difference between this and giving it to Yi Wei?

But no matter how uncomfortable they felt, it was not good to show it too obviously in such an occasion. After quickly adjusting their expressions, the two old ladies pretended that they had known about it for a long time.

Lai Hai Villa is what Gu Heng had been dreaming of since he was a child. He originally thought that as long as he could inherit the Gu family's property, he would also be able to inherit Lai Hai Villa. Now that his hopes have been dashed, he is naturally hit hard again. After all, Gu Heng is young and cannot control his emotions as quickly as the two old ladies.

Even the other guests were very surprised by this.

Ye Feng's mood adjusted faster, because the Laihai Villa would never be in her hands anyway, so she smiled and said to Gu Yueshan: "Yi Wei gave birth to your eldest son, and is a great contributor to our Gu family. Since Laihai Villa is for the child, it is most appropriate for him to take care of it for the child first."

Yi Wei quickly observed the expressions of the others. Except for the young people who could hardly hide their emotions, the older generation, such as Gu Yueshan's two uncles and cousins, some hid their thoughts very well and their emotions could not be seen, while others showed their emotions slightly. Yi Wei smiled in his heart, then carried the child back to the yard.

The full moon banquet ended and the guests left one after another.

"The child is only two months old, and Director Gu has already given Laihai Villa to him. Is this telling the rest of the Gu family that all the Gu family property will belong to his son, and that they should not even think about it?"

"Boss Gu is already in his thirties. He has been infertile for so many years. Even if he concealed it on purpose, as a man he must have felt uncomfortable. Now that he finally has a son, of course he is happy. And he is happy because he has his own son. What can't he give to him?"

"I also think that Director Gu did this specifically for the rest of the Gu family to see, so of course he must be happy about it."

"But the child is still so young. Why do I feel that Director Gu is giving Lai Hai Villa to Yi Wei in disguise?"

"Yes, they said they were keeping it for the child, but it sounds like an excuse. They actually want to give Laihai Villa to Yi Wei, right?"

"Today, the Mi family is sitting at the child's grandparents' house. Seeing Director Gu's attitude towards the Mi family, the Mi family will definitely get better and better with the help of the Gu Group."

"What do you think Yi Hong and his wife were thinking? The child was taken away by mistake and brought back after so many years. You don't say you will do your best to compensate, but at least you should treat him equally. However, you are extremely partial to the one who is not your biological child. Anyone would feel uncomfortable."

"I've heard about this, too. If my child was taken away by mistake and found after so many years, I would be so heartbroken. No matter how much compensation they give me, it won't be enough. I really don't understand what they are thinking. They must be regretting it now, right?"

"Anyway, judging from the attitudes of Yi Wei and Director Gu, the Yi family will have nothing to do with it in the future."

Zhao Zhen went to see Jiang Shuqin. Jiang Shuqin asked the maid to help her sit up and said weakly, "Did you come from the main house?"

"Yeah." Zhao Zhen nodded.

"The baby's double full moon banquet must be lively, right?" Jiang Shuqin said.

"It's very lively." Zhao Zhen sighed and felt an indescribable regret in her heart.

"Alas." Jiang Shuqin also sighed and said, "Although Gu Heng's grandmother and grandfather told me that I can slowly plan for the future, I know in my heart that I have already tried my best to become the heir before, and the possibility of becoming the heir in the future is almost zero."

"Who can predict what will happen in the future?" Zhao Zhen said, "Just like, who could have imagined that Yi Wei would marry Mr. Gu and give birth to a child for him."

"If I hadn't had such thoughts from the beginning and hadn't been looking forward to it for so many years, I wouldn't feel so bad. Gu Heng's fourth uncle is really cruel, both to the Gu family and to himself. He can even use the fact that I can't have children to lie to people. I can't understand why he would use such a lie to deceive people."

"You should have a good rest." Zhao Zhen patted her hands and said, "No matter how unwilling you are, you still have to live your life. Nothing is more important than keeping healthy."

Jiang Shuqin nodded.
