Chapter 191 Birthday
Chapter 192 Birthday
After the family meeting, everyone sat down to eat.
The gray-haired old man was sitting in a wheelchair. Although he was thin, he was in good spirits. After seeing Fang Qing, he stroked his beard and nodded.
"This child looks kind and is a good kid. Since you two are good friends, I hope you can tolerate each other more in the future and come to my house more often when you are free..."
When everyone saw that the old man actually spoke and had such a good impression of Fang Qing, they also became a little more enthusiastic about Fang Qing.
After dinner, the family sat together drinking tea and chatting. Qin Xue's second aunt looked through the calendar and suddenly remembered that Qin Xue's birthday was in the middle of this month.
When asked how she was going to celebrate her birthday this time, Qin Xue thought of Fang Qing and decided to hold it in a hotel.
"Mom, it's my birthday this year, and I want to introduce Qingqing to everyone. Didn't you say before that you wanted to adopt her as your goddaughter? Why don't we take this opportunity to do it together..."
Wang had only said it as a joke, but she had never expected her daughter to take it seriously. But Fang Qing was indeed a likable child, so it was okay to adopt her as a goddaughter, so she took her daughter's hand and discussed it.
"It's easy for me to talk about this, but it has to be approved by the parents first. Why don't you let Qingqing ask her family for their opinion first? If her parents don't object, then we can do as you say."
Seeing that Qin Xue and her mother were so serious, Fang Qing called home after returning home that night.
When Fang's mother heard that a wealthy family wanted to adopt her daughter as a goddaughter, she was surprised at first, but after asking about the Qin family's family traditions, she felt relieved. Anyway, her daughter lived alone in the capital, and it was rare for her to have such a good friend. Now that she had such a powerful backer, she could feel at ease.
"I have no objection, as long as you are happy, but you must remember that we should not do anything illegal or disorderly outside. We should work steadily and be upright. People will appreciate you. You should also find ways to be nice to others and not just ask for things blindly..."
Fang's mother gave a lot of instructions over the phone, and her voice was full of fatigue.
Fang Qing felt sorry for his mother and asked if something happened at home.
Thinking about what had happened at home during this period, Fang's mother originally wanted to complain to her daughter about these trivial things, but when she thought about her daughter being alone outside and wondering how hard it was for her, she swallowed the words back.
"Don't worry, everything is fine at home, don't worry about it. Do you have enough money? Should I send you some more money?"
"It's enough. My salary is enough for me to spend. You can save some money to buy yourself some more nutritious food. Don't eat pickled vegetables every day..."
After hanging up the phone, Fang's mother sighed, went to see her son who was drinking and crying in the house, tears streaming down her face.
"Ah, what kind of sin is this?"
…
Two weeks later, Qin Xue's birthday came.
Not only was this year's birthday held in a grand manner in the hotel, Qin Xue also released the news that an important news would be announced on her birthday.
Close friends in the circle rushed to attend her birthday party. Many people heard that Qin Xue was dating Liu Yuhang, and everyone speculated whether it was news that the two were engaged.
Bai Xiaofeng had been busy decorating his teahouse recently. When he heard the news, he was furious and picked up the phone to call Fang Qing.
"Fang Qing, didn't you say you would help me? Then why didn't you tell me about Qin Xue's date with that guy named Liu?"
Fang Qing felt a headache when he heard Bai Xiaofeng's voice.
When she learned that Qin Xue and Liu Yuhang were dating, she hesitated whether to tell Bai Xiaofeng. But later she found that Qin Xue seemed to like Liu Yuhang very much, and the two of them got along very well, so Fang Qing hesitated.
Although she admired Bai Xiaofeng's enthusiasm, Qin Xue's feelings were more important, and she couldn't interfere with Qin Xue's emotional issues at this time.
"Mr. Bai, although I promised to help you find out Sister Xue's preferences, it is her freedom to choose whoever she likes. As a friend, all I can do is support and protect her. If you want to pursue her, you have to rely on your own abilities. I can't interfere with other things."
Bai Xiaofeng was silent for a long time after hearing this, then gritted his teeth and hung up the phone.
Fang Qing thought he would give up, but unexpectedly, he came uninvited on Qin Xue's birthday.
"Sir, please show me your invitation."
Bai Xiaofeng took off his sunglasses and pointed at himself. "I, Bai Xiaofeng, am here to attend my friend's birthday party. Are you asking me for an invitation?"
The receptionist at the door was in a dilemma. When he was patiently trying to appease and persuade him, Fang Qing came over, approached the receptionist and whispered, "This is today's distinguished guest. Please be more flexible."
The receptionist understood and immediately raised his hand, inviting Bai Xiaofeng into the venue.
Fang Qing took him to a quiet corner and sat down. "Mr. Bai, I didn't expect you to come. So, have you really thought it through?"
Bai Xiaofeng took a glass of champagne and drank it in big gulps, then nodded, "Of course, Master Bai, there is no reason for me to let go of the woman I have chosen."
Fang Qing smiled, "Okay, I was right. Since you have made up your mind, I will help you when the time is right. However, I still want to remind you that you must not be impulsive and must take your time."
Bai Xiaofeng nodded impatiently and agreed, then told Fang Qing to do what he was supposed to do. He sat on the sofa, watched the guests coming and going, and started drinking.
As melodious music sounded, Qin Xue walked down the stairs in a gorgeous dress to accept instructions from relatives and friends.
Seeing this, Bai Xiaofeng immediately went forward. When Qin Xue walked up to him, he suddenly took out a velvet box from behind him with great discomfort.
"Well, this... is a gift I prepared for you, take it." After saying that, he rubbed his nose and took a glass of wine from the tray of a waiter passing by to cover up his embarrassment.
Qin Xue didn't expect that Bai Xiaofeng, who had always been at odds with her, would prepare a gift so carefully.
"This...isn't this a bomb?"
Bai Xiaofeng rolled his eyes. "No matter how bad I am, I won't joke about birthday presents. Take it or leave it."
Hearing this, Qin Xue smiled awkwardly. She was a little uncomfortable with Bai Xiaofeng like this. "Thank you... Have fun. I have something else to do. I'll come back later."
This was the first time Bai Xiaofeng gave something to a girl. He thought Qin Xue would be touched, but he didn't expect this kind of reaction. "Hey! Are you leaving now?"
But Qin Xue had already handed the gift to the servant, and then held up the wine glass and started toasting.
Liu Yuhang watched this scene from afar. As a man himself, he keenly sensed Bai Xiaofeng's thoughts.
He had heard of Bai Xiaofeng's name a long time ago. He came from a well-off family, but he was always regarded as an incompetent person in the circle. He did nothing but eat, drink and have fun on weekdays.
Liu Yuhang felt extremely uncomfortable that such a person had the nerve to compete with him.
With his eyes slightly narrowed and a faint smile on his face, he approached Bai Xiaofeng and whispered something to him. Unexpectedly, the next second, Bai Xiaofeng suddenly jumped up and punched Liu Yuhang, "You say that again?"
