After getting familiar with each other, Shu Yi took out the gift she had prepared.

She knew that Mr. Huo had everything he needed, so if she gave him a gift right away, he would definitely not accept it.

"Mr. Huo, I brought you a small gift. It's just a token of my appreciation. I hope you can accept it."

The gifts were chosen by her after careful consideration and were not expensive.

Some pens, ink, paper and inkstone may suit Mr. Huo's preferences.

If she gave him expensive gifts and asked Mr. Huo to help her, it would be suspected of bribery.

As Shu Yi expected, Mr. Huo accepted the gift she brought with a smile.

"You are thoughtful." Mr. Huo put the gift aside, his eyes suddenly lit up and he thought of something.

"Your name is Shu Yi, right? Are you interested in being my goddaughter?"

Shu Yi was stunned and opened his mouth slightly in disbelief.

Mr. Huo never married in his life and was a lonely old man, but he raised many orphans.

Although his godsons and goddaughters came from poor backgrounds, they all became wealthy after following him.

Seeing that Shu Yi didn't respond, Mr. Huo said, "I'm sorry, I was abrupt. After all, this is our first meeting today."

"It's not abrupt." Shu Yi quickly shook her head, "I am willing to do so. It is my honor to be your goddaughter!"

Mr. Huo's financial resources and reputation far exceed her biological father from the Shu family and her stepfather from the Song family.

She was already very happy that Mr. Huo nodded and agreed to help her today.

I didn’t expect to have such an unexpected big gain!

Good luck hasn't been on her side for a long time.

With Mr. Huo's support in the future, even if Gu Jinlan is the little princess of the Zhao family, she won't be much higher than her.

Mr. Huo smiled and said, "Then at the dinner tomorrow, I will first announce that you are my god-granddaughter, and then say that you are the child's biological mother."

"This way, even if some people think you are marrying up to the Shi family, you are my goddaughter, and no one can say anything."

"Thank you, Grandpa!" Shu Yi immediately changed his tone, tears welling up in his eyes with joy.

Fearing that she would be exposed in her excitement, she stood up and said, "Then I won't bother you anymore. I'll come to see you tomorrow."

Mr. Huo glanced at the time and said, "Let's have dinner before we go. I want to hear you tell me about Manqiu."

Every time he heard people mention Manqiu, he could recall the good old days.

Over the years, his memory has gradually faded, and he is afraid that if he doesn't come back, he will forget it completely.

Because of the grievances in his heart, he also had selfish motives.

Thinking that since Shu Yi is the child's biological mother, Shu Yi will definitely marry into the Shi family in the future.

He adopted Shu Yi as his godson, which was also a new connection between him and Manqiu.

From now on, I will have a legitimate excuse to see Manqiu.

In the French restaurant, Gu Jinlan waited for a while before Yun Luoxi hurried over.

"Lanlan, I'm sorry. I was delayed on the way."

Gu Jinlan looked at her and said, "You seem a little different today."

Yun Luoxi's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly raised her hand to hold the half of her face that was hit red by her mother.

"Where...what's the difference?"

She had clearly covered the red marks on her face with powder.

The red eyes from crying were also covered up with heavier eye shadow.

Gu Jinlan looked at him and said, "You're wearing heavy makeup today, no wonder you look different."

Yun Luoxi usually wears light makeup.

Except for the day of her wedding, this was the first time that Gu Jinlan saw Yun Luoxi wearing such heavy makeup.

Yun Luoxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "It's time to change up your style once in a while. Have you ordered?"

"not yet."

"Then let's order the food first, so we can eat right away when Matt gets here."

After saying that, Yun Luoxi raised his hand to call the waiter and hurriedly ordered the meal.

Seeing this, Gu Jinlan asked, "Are you in a hurry to leave after eating?"

"No, this restaurant requires a long wait every time you order. If you order earlier, you can eat earlier."

Gu Jinlan saw through Yun Luoxi's thoughts and smiled, "Is it because you are having dinner with Matt and you are afraid that Jingchuan will be jealous if you come back late?"

"No." Yun Luoxi picked up the lemonade and took a sip.

Indeed, I also want to finish eating early and go back early.

She didn't want to quarrel with Jingchuan anymore.

too tired……

Gu Jinlan asked again: "Are there no problems between you and Jingchuan now?"

Yun Luoxi narrowed her eyes and smiled, "No problem, I'm fine."

"That's good." Gu Jinlan nodded, feeling that Luo Xi seemed to be hiding something from him.

On second thought, I felt that I was worrying too much.

Luo Xi's post-traumatic stress disorder has recovered, and she can lead a normal married life with Zhao Jingchuan.

Logically speaking, their feelings for each other should get better and better.

The feelings of adults are created.

As long as the sex life is harmonious, many conflicts can be avoided.

Thinking of this, Gu Jinlan said, "Then you can have a baby sooner."

With children, their marriage should be more stable.

Yun Luoxi choked on the water and said, "It's still early. I have no plans now."

"Don't you like children? I think Jingchuan likes them too. The baby you have will definitely be very cute."

"Oh, Lanlan, why are you still trying to get the baby started?" Yun Luoxi said coquettishly, "As soon as I sat down, you asked me about Jingchuan and me."

"Are you worried that I will bully your brother, or are you worried that your brother will bully me?"

"If you side with Jingchuan instead of me just because he's your brother, I'll cry in front of you!"

Gu Jinlan laughed, "To you, to you, I will definitely always be by your side."

"What are you talking about so happily?" Matt's voice suddenly sounded above his head.

Yun Luoxi was startled, "When did you arrive?"

"From the moment I walked into the restaurant, all the girls' attention was attracted by me, except you two who ignored me." Matt sat down in the empty seat next to him.

A red short-sleeved shirt is as passionate and flamboyant as his personality.

In Yun Luoxi's memory, every time Matt appeared, he seemed to have his own shining light and a bright and ruffian air.

He still hasn't changed.

But something changed in Yun Luoxi's heart.

Looking at him at this moment, her heart finally stopped beating as fast as it did every time before.

She breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Matt.

very nice.

Finally, I can face him calmly.

In fact, before coming, she was very nervous and worried that she couldn't control her heartbeat.

I had been avoiding it before, and now I feel confused.

Now that I have mustered up the courage to face it, I discover that some of the feelings that I thought were engraved in my bones are not really hard to let go.

"You'll die if you're not narcissistic, right?" Gu Jinlan asked, "Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming back?"

Matt said, "Aren't you busy lately? I don't dare to disturb you."

Gu Jinlan nodded, "Yes, he has grown up and become sensible. He is teachable, and I am very pleased."

Matt glanced at her, "You'll die if you don't take advantage of me, right?"

Watching the two people bickering, Yun Luoxi burst out laughing.

It was like this every time. She would just stand by and watch them play around with a smile on her face.

In the past, at times like this, she sometimes felt lost and felt like she couldn't fit in.

But now, she hopes that this kind of beauty can continue until the day when they are old and have gray hair and many children and grandchildren.

At the same time, Zhao Jingchuan took Shi Ye to the door of the restaurant.
