Xiao Xixi simply put on foundation, put on her eyelashes, and even omitted eyeshadow, but she still looked natural and pure at first glance.
Xiao Jue and Xiao Hui were dressed like little adults. One was in a child-style casual suit, and the other was in a princess dress. Needless to say, Xiao Jue had a strong and awe-inspiring nature in his eyebrows, while Xiao Hui was
With a unique nobility that is different from other little girls.
"Are you okay?" Xiao Xixi watched Situ Leiyan's reaction, "I spent the whole afternoon preparing for it!" Even though she hadn't met his parents yet, she felt a little relieved after receiving his natural affirmation.
"No problem, your parents can accept whatever you are." Situ Leiyan replied.
"They are them... I always feel that I am redundant." Xiao Xixi was still a little nervous, her face was slightly pink, and her lips were pursed, "Well, don't keep staring at me, I am even more nervous." He
The long and narrow eyes looked at her, making her even more confused.
"Heh..." Situ Leiyan smiled calmly, looking at her confused expression, he was even more amused, "Let's go."
In the banquet hall.
From a distance, Gu Ruolan locked eyes on the two figures, one big and two small, approaching from a distance. Her heart was as tight as a string, and she could barely maintain her smile. With her graceful and generous aura, she must also be the most beautiful.
powerful.
However, when she saw the cute Xiao Xixi and their two children protected by the strong and cold Situ Leiyan, despite being mentally prepared, she was so angry that she wanted to crush the goblet in her hand.
.
"Miss Gu, you are really tolerant of all rivers!" A guest looked at Gu Ruolan's eyes as she glanced at the door, and greeted her respectfully.
"Thank you, as a woman of the Situ family -" Gu Ruolan turned her eyes and smiled slowly at the other party, "Of course this is very important. Please take it easy for now, I will go and greet you." She put down the wine glass in her hand and took it with her.
With bursts of flames igniting in his heart, he walked forward leisurely.
This was not the first time for Xiao Xixi to experience such an occasion. She knew it was a banquet. Whether it was with Yan Rui, Leng Zhiqing, or Situ Leiyan, she had experienced hundreds of such occasions.
However, the moment she stepped into the threshold, she was still a little confused. At a glance, she saw Gu Ruolan standing among the guests like a girl host, like a star holding the moon.
She felt an indescribable embarrassment in her heart. She raised her eyes and looked at Situ Leiyan beside her, and said softly: "Should I... bring the children here and just stay away for a while?"
"Why?!" Situ Leiyan was surprised. He didn't expect that she would make such a suggestion. He turned to look at Gu Ruolan who was walking not far away, "You are the woman I, Situ Leiyan, brought back, and you are the mother of the child.
Why do you need to avoid it?" His voice was cold, and he looked at Gu Ruolan intently, then lowered his gaze and looked at Xiao Xixi resolutely.
This is an order, an absolute order.
He had endured so many occasions where Gu Ruolan regarded herself as the hostess, and now, the moment finally came for Xiao Xixi to attend. Naturally, he would not let it go.
"Miss Xiao, welcome!" Gu Ruolan had already walked up to the two people.
Before Xiao Xixi could answer, Xiaojue from a low angle sighed loudly: "Ugly woman!"
Only then did Gu Ruolan's eyes glance at the two little people below, her heart sank, she dared not speak out in anger, and smiled sarcastically: "The children... are so cute."
Xiao Xixi didn't expect that her words of advice all afternoon yesterday were in vain. Seeing Gu Ruolan's reaction, she couldn't help but stretched out her hand to pull Xiao Jue to her side, and explained apologetically: "Child, you are not sensible yet, please... please forgive me!
"
At this time, Xiaohui's eyes drooped a bit, and she timidly looked at Gu Ruolan, who she didn't like, and then looked up at Situ Leiyan: "Daddy, didn't you say that you only love mommy?
, and now there is her..."
She was not as bold as Xiaojue, but there was a hint of displeasure in her tone, and her delicate little face was even more puzzled.
"Xiao Hui——" Xiao Xixi's breathing suddenly tightened. Unexpectedly, she pressed the gourd and picked up the gourd, so she hurriedly called another one.
Situ Leiyan raised his eyebrows, raised his thin lips slightly, and said with a casual smile: "Gu'er, the children are young, you don't have to mind."
"Of course I don't, Yan, how could I care about the children!" Gu Ruolan laughed. She didn't expect that the two children were naturally hostile to her. She wanted them to avoid it, but it was impossible. The banquet was
The protagonists, apart from Situ Yu and An Lin, are clearly these two children.
"I think so." Situ Leiyan raised his eyes and said in a cold and calm voice, "Gu'er has always been the most sensible." He always maintained the most impeccable response.
While they were chatting, there was a commotion in the crowd. Then, it gradually calmed down.
Xiao Xixi pulled the two children and followed the angle of the crowd, and at a glance she saw two figures with extremely powerful auras walking down the white jade indoor stairs arm in arm.
Situ Yu's eyes were colder than Situ Leiyan's, with the perseverance that had gone through countless wars. Although he was beyond middle age, he still had a natural and inviolable fierceness.
An Lin, what complements his Tianran is that although she is exquisite and graceful, she is still pure and approachable.
"Xiao Xixi, those are my parents, I will call you uncle and aunt later." Situ Leiyan whispered.
Xiao Xixi nodded mechanically, she was already a little dumbfounded.
Sure enough, it was the well-deserved Situ family. It was just a normal appearance, but it attracted more attention than she had ever seen. Her heartbeat accelerated, and the hands holding the two children tightened.
Just as he was stunned, the other party had already walked through the crowd and came towards her. Xiao Xixi swallowed hard and tried her best to stay calm.
Finally, Situ Yu and An Lin walked up to them arm in arm, and she suddenly became so nervous that she couldn't help herself.
"Xixi, long time no see! - It hasn't changed at all from my impression!" An Lin didn't seem so isolated from the world at all. On the contrary, she had an unexpected sense of closeness.
"Yes...thank you, hello, aunt!" Xiao Xixi's heart suddenly beat wildly, "Hello, uncle!" The palms of her hands felt a little cold.
Situ Yu nodded slightly, and his cold gaze shifted to the two children, with a hint of imperceptible interest: "Yan, are these Xiao Jue and Xiao Hui?"
Xiao Xixi smiled bitterly, realizing that the king opposite was doing it for the two children, so she hurriedly took the two children's little hands and led them forward slightly.
"Yes, Yan -" An Lin's smile became even more peaceful. She half-leaned her body and couldn't help but smile, "Xiao Jue, this child... is exactly the same as you when you were a child!"
As soon as he saw An Lin smiling as if she was praising him, Xiao Jue suddenly changed his mind. Putting aside the hostility toward Gu Ruolan just now, he showed no mercy to An Lin. He said boldly: "Are you a grandma?"
Suddenly, I became interested in my grandmother.
"Xiao Jue, please speak Mandarin..." Xiao Xixi hurriedly corrected in a low voice.
"It doesn't matter, Xixi," An Lin's eyes were still fixed on Xiaojue. She felt affection for him, and even reached out to hug Xiaojue. "Whether I call you grandma or grandma, when I see you, I feel like I have met you."
Just like when Homura was a child!" With an uncontrollable smile, she fell in love with her grandson at first sight.
"——Grandpa hug me!" Seeing her brother being welcomed, Xiaohui became anxious and looked at Situ Yu to see what was going on.
At this time, Xiao Xixi was suddenly frightened. She did not expect that Xiaohui would make such a presumptuous request. She could clearly feel the countless eyes around her locked on Situ Yu, with awe and worry. How could such a face be such a shame?
Can you give it to your little granddaughter when you meet her for the first time?!
She hurriedly wanted to speak to stop him, but the next step was shocked.
"Grandpa, I'll hold you." Situ Yu's frozen face melted slightly in an instant, which made Situ Leiyan a little surprised. He raised his arms and hugged Xiao Hui, "Situ Hui, you can be held by me, don't be envious.
he!"
Upon seeing this scene, others immediately breathed a sigh of relief for Xiao Xixi and the two children.
The whole atmosphere became relaxed in an instant, and some people couldn't help but start to applaud and celebrate.
As if she had finally let go of the stone in her heart, Xiao Xixi felt completely relieved. She gently stroked her forehead and tried to open her eyes. This was not a dream.
What I had been worrying about from yesterday to just now has not happened at all.
"Uncle and aunt," Gu Ruolan said suddenly, with a smile, "I really congratulate you on reuniting your two children!" The tone was joyful, perfectly concealing the resentment in his heart.
"Well," An Lin's mind was not focused on anything else at all, she just kept teasing Xiao Jue in her arms from ear to ear, "Xiao Jue, do you know that your surname is Situ? Grandma likes you very much, do you know?"
Xiao Jue also responded: "I love you, too!" The clear childish voice immediately caused a burst of laughter.
Situ Leiyan's face relaxed even more. Seeing his parents reunited with their children, he didn't expect it to be so relaxed and easy. With warmth lingering in his heart, he turned to look at Xiao Xixi and whispered: "I said it, you believe it?"
What?"
"I really didn't expect..." Xiao Xixi couldn't help but smile, "I didn't expect that they would be so easy to get along with and would love Xiao Jue and Xiao Hui so much." Maybe this is just their nature?
Watching An Lin teasing Xiao Jue, there was a mixture of sweetness and bitterness in her heart. She couldn't explain it, and she couldn't help but think of her mother. How could such a close blood relative who is constantly being cut off be so convincing?
People are moved.
For a moment, the tip of her nose felt sour.
"What's wrong?" Situ Leiyan could see that there was a flash in Xiao Xixi's eyes and asked with concern.
"It's okay...I'm very touched." Xiao Xixi looked at the scene in front of her and sighed softly.
Gu Ruolan took in all of this.
It was worse and more excessive than she imagined. She didn't know where they put her in front of her. She said nonchalantly: "I'm going to the bathroom."
After taking a few steps, she looked back and saw the sweet scene of four adults and two children surrounded by the crowd. It was a great irony for her.
