For so many years, every year Jiang Man celebrated his birthday, he just had a light meal with his family at home, and Gu Jiangtian was in charge of the cooking, and this year was no exception.

"Dad, let me help you." After putting down the things, Gu Xiaoxia walked to the kitchen with a smile, and was about to pick up a lively crucian carp to clean it up.

"Hey, don't make a mess, the more you help, the more you help, go out and watch TV." Gu Jiangtian hurriedly stopped her, his eyes narrowed, and then he patted her on the shoulder and said, "Your mother, come back soon!" Now, go out and wait, talk to her, you know?"

Resentfully withdrew her hand, Gu Xiaoxia put away her smile and nodded, "Then I'm going out."

"Go." Gu Jiangtian was helpless in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

Not long after sitting in the living room with Zhong Youhe, Gu Xiaoxia heard the door open.

After calming down her nervous mood, Gu Xiaoxia pulled the people beside her to stand up and looked at the door.

Jiang Man pushed Gu Xin and appeared in sight. When Gu Xiaoxia was about to speak, her eyes widened slightly, and then her lips tightened.

Zhong Youhe glanced at her, stretched out his hand to press her, and naturally he also saw Huo Fan at the back.

The air pressure in the living room dropped all of a sudden, Gu Xiaoxia hesitated to say something, but she didn't notice the instant the two men's eyes met, it was a flash of lightning.

At this moment, Gu Jiangtian suddenly leaned out from the kitchen, "Xiao Xia, is your mother back?"

Gu Xiaoxia was shocked and wanted to block Huo Fan like a conditioned reflex, but she was still a step behind.

With a sound of "pa...", the spoon in Gu Jiangtian's hand slipped and fell to the ground, making intimate contact with the floor.

This time, Gu Xiaoxia became even more nervous, feeling her heart was about to jump into her throat, just when she was about to speak, Zhong Youhe held her back, signaling to take it easy.

After yesterday, Jiang Man was already in a bad mood, and he was sleepy. Seeing Gu Jiangtian like this, he frowned and got angry, "Jiang Tian, ​​what are you doing?"

Gu Jiangtian smiled dryly, and quickly covered up his shock, "No... all of a sudden his hand slipped. Huo Fan is here too, you sit down, you can eat right away." After finishing speaking, he turned and went into the kitchen.

However, Gu Xiaoxia did not ignore his slightly trembling hands when he picked up the spoon, as well as the flash of sourness on his face.

Huo Fan, why are you here?

"Why don't you eat it? Do you think my cooking is not delicious?" At the dinner table, Gu Jiangtian tilted his head slightly, pretending to ask the people on both sides with a very natural expression, but he still secretly glanced at the silent Huo Fan from time to time. .

"No, Dad, the dishes you cook are always so delicious, am I struggling with which one to try first?" Gu Xin said, quickly scanning the dishes on the table with her big eyes, and then stretched out her hand , picked up a chopstick of hot and sour potato shreds, "Well, dad, it's sour and spicy, that's the taste. I can't even eat it in S city. I always think it's not as good as yours."

After Gu Xin finished speaking, she picked up another piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and handed it to Jiang Man's bowl, "Mom, it's your birthday today, eat more, Dad made it specially for you."

Jiang Man nodded, his face finally changed from the serious look when he just came back, "Well, Xiaoxin still loves her mother. Don't patronize me, you should eat more yourself, and see how much weight you have lost." As if wanting to see Huo Fan suddenly, she greeted warmly, "Huo Fan, you can eat too, don't be polite, just treat this as your home, it's not like you haven't eaten here before, why are you polite?" In "treat this as your own home", the tone is emphasized.

Gu Xiaoxia's hand holding vegetables paused suddenly after hearing Jiang Man's words, then a bitter smile flashed across the corner of her mouth, and then she ate her own food with her head covered.At this moment, she felt very wronged. It seemed that Jiang Man only had Gu Xin in his heart forever. If he knew this, why did he give birth to her in the first place?
This time, I bought her the massage foot tub that she had been thinking about for a long time, but she threw it in the corner without looking at it.Gu Xin also bought a foot tub, but Jiang Man treated it like a treasure, looking at it again and again and couldn't put it down.Ah……

Gu Xiaoxia was thinking about things here, while Jiang Man over there greeted Huo Fan even more enthusiastically, "Huo Fan, hurry up and eat, how long has it been since you came to Auntie's house? What a brat, Xiaoxia is here You ran so frequently, you disappeared when you went to S City, but Auntie looks forward to the stars and the moon every day, hoping that you will come to eat."

Hearing this, Huo Fan glanced unintentionally at Gu Xiaoxia who didn't look up, and said playfully, "I'm afraid I won't be able to eat food from Auntie's house again."

Finally, Gu Xiaoxia couldn't stand it anymore, and swallowed the Peking duck that hadn't been chewed alive, and said in a blunt tone, "Mom, how many times do I have to say, Yuhe is my boyfriend, and Yuhe is here to eat. Why do you keep bringing up the past? I’ve said it all, those are the past! And Huo Fan, what do you want?! I’ve said it clearly enough!”

She was really anxious, and it was fine if her mother didn't want to see her, but why did she insist on talking about the past over and over again in front of Zhong Youhe?What do you think?Can't you respect your choice?Does she not have the right to be happy?
Following Gu Xiaoxia's words, the dinner table quickly fell silent.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Man suddenly put down his chopsticks heavily, frowned, and stared at Gu Xiaoxia with a pair of phoenix eyes, "What are you talking about? Did you talk to your mother like that? I'm in front of Huo Xiaoxia today. Keep it in front of Fan, you are Huo Fan's fiancée, this will not change!"

When Gu Xiaoxia heard this, she couldn't help raising her voice and blurting out, "Then do you think I'm your daughter? Why do I need your approval to choose someone I like? This is not a feudal society, there is no order from parents, no words from matchmakers! "

After finishing speaking, her chest kept rising and falling, and she couldn't hold it down anymore, obviously her mood fluctuated too much.The originally agile eyes were full of grievances at the moment, if Zhong Youhe beside her didn't hold her back in time, she really couldn't help crying.

Jiang Man was about to say something to teach her a lesson, but he accidentally caught a glimpse of Zhong You and those emotionless and bottomless eyes sweeping towards him, and his body shook violently. The momentum to support himself also weakened.

At this moment, Gu Jiangtian, who had been sullen and speechless, roared, "Okay! What are you arguing about?! What does it look like!" Then, he dropped his chopsticks, pressed his sore forehead, and then waved his hands , the voice lowered again. If you listen carefully, you can still smell the pain that seems to be nothing. Happiness is the most important thing, so what if you are obsessed with the past? The palms and backs of your hands are full of meat, so don’t be too partial? Have a good birthday, the family gathers for dinner, and mentioning things that shouldn’t be mentioned What are you doing? You want this to be the last time our family eats together?"

After so many years of marriage, it was the first time Jiang Man saw Gu Jiangtian showing such an expression. She couldn't help but panic, but she was still arguing, "But Jiang Tian, ​​after all, she and Huo Fan were engaged. Can you slap the Huo family in the face?"

She thought that as long as the Huo family was mentioned again, things would turn around, but Gu Jiangtian just gave her a painful look, and then said very resolutely, "Xiaoxia's future husband must not be Huo Fan! This is Huo Fan." The old man said it himself!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked different.

Jiang Man looked at Huo Fan blankly, very puzzled, "Why?"

Gu Xin was also at a loss, but she was more sensitive than Jiang Man, and her intuition told her that there was some ulterior secret in it, but no matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn't figure it out.

Gu Xiaoxia, who was sitting on the chair blankly, couldn't help feeling a strong uneasiness in her heart, her heart was beating suddenly, and she couldn't help but hold Zhong Youhe's hand tightly.

Zhong Youhe next to him had an imperceptible playful smile on the corner of his mouth, and glanced at Huo Fan who was opposite him.He knew that after today, many things would be different.

Finally, Huo Fan unhurriedly took a tissue and wiped the corners of his mouth, then lazily stood up, stared straight at Gu Jiangtian's eyes that he still wanted to avoid, and said briskly, "It must not be me? Why? ? Just because we are 'half-siblings'?"
