Second Part: 'East Soil Great Sugar' Chapter 334:
praised so directly, was a little uncomfortable. He quickly humbled himself and said...“The progress of this case is a result of the hard work of the seniors. I'm just following the path paved by them...This time, YaoYao's sixth sense was right. The second child turned out to be a little princess. As soon as she was born, her skin was smooth and powdery, her eyes could open, round and bright, completely unlike a wrinkled newborn. She was unbelievably beautiful. YaoYao, who was originally weak, couldn't help but hold her in her arms and look at her, reluctant to let go. She proudly said, "How did she grow so big Calling her breathtakingly beautiful would be an understatement."
Gu Ruandong also took a glance, his heart was full of emotion, "He looks like you."
Gu Yujie inherited the best features of both parents and is already very handsome; even though their daughter has just been born, she can be seen to resemble Yao Yao more. She is indeed very cute, a big Yao Yao and a little Yao Yao. Seeing her, Yao Yao felt that all the hardships she endured during pregnancy were worth it.
When celebrating their granddaughter's 100-day feast, they followed tradition and returned to the capital for a banquet. This time, it was mainly handled by Mrs. Gu. The last time for little Gulu's 100-day feast was grand and lavish, but this time, as it was their granddaughter, Mrs. Gu was afraid of being criticized for favoring sons over daughters, so she ensured that the granddaughter received even more attention than her grandson. The scale was more magnificent than before, and the venue was set at the hot spring hotel where Gu Ruandong and Yaoyao got married. Mrs. Gu's idea was simple: this would be the last grand occasion she would orchestrate in her lifetime. Gu Ruandong had already clearly stated that there wouldn't be a third child.
Mother Gu heard from Cui Ping that Gu Ruandong had also gone to have a vasectomy. It was all the fault of the Zhuo family for not being decent people, but it didn't matter; she was already content with having grandchildren.
The hot spring resort where the Baidu banquet was held had special significance for not only Gu Ruandong and his wife but also for Zhuo Yu'an and his wife, as well as Lu Kuo and his wife. That's why they all checked into the resort hotel a day in advance, looking for beautiful memories.
Three families gathered together, which indeed fulfilled Lu Kuo's wish to host a drinking party and make amends for his previous humiliation. However, Song Jingye was missing. He wasn't in a hurry though, he'd wait until tomorrow's official banquet when Song Jingye would definitely come. Once he arrived, don't even think about leaving this manor straight away, he thought confidently.
The next morning, everyone got up early. Those with children took them out for exercise in the manor's garden. However, Gu Ruandong and Yaoyao were nowhere to be seen. The door to their independent courtyard remained closed all day, and both children were looked after by several aunts at home.
It wasn't that Lu YaoYao didn't want to get up, it was just that she had been driven mad the night before and couldn't bring herself to move. Even Gu Ruan Dong, a tireless iron man, felt a bit sluggish in the morning, let alone her
This isn't Gu Ruandong's fault either. During the last three months of pregnancy, he dared not touch her. And after giving birth, for another three months before the surgery, he didn't dare touch her either, fearing an unexpected pregnancy. He felt sorry for her, so they were separated for six months. At night, they just hugged each other to sleep. Both of them were tormented until last night when they truly released themselves, both a little crazy. Especially Yao Yao, she knew exactly how to tease him, leading to his repeated loss of control and self-restraint.
The two slept until the sun was high in the sky before they could get up. Besides the hundred-day banquet, they had an appointment with a doctor in the morning to give their baby a vaccination.
Every time the baby gets vaccinated, Gu Ruandong must be present in person. Only when he is there will the baby not cry. It's probably because of a strong sense of security, as every time Gu Ruandong holds the baby entirely in his arms and wraps them in his clothes, only exposing the arm part for the shot.
He is different with his daughter. He is patient with Xiaogulu, but not very gentle; he speaks in a rather rigid manner. When speaking to his daughter, his tone unconsciously becomes lighter and softer, it's clear that he will be a devoted "daughter slave" in the future.
He said to YaoYao, "It's amazing, watching her feels like watching you grow up slowly."
Because of his daughter's arrival, it seems he has become involved in every aspect of Yaoyao's life, from her birth to the present and even into the future when she grows old. This complete participation in every stage of her life moves him and makes him feel fulfilled.

The guests at the banquet were similar to last time. Last time, it was a family of three, plus Little Gulu's ear-splitting cries on stage. This time, it was a family of four, and even Little Gulu, influenced by his younger sister, was exceptionally well-behaved. He stood quietly beside his mother, holding her hand. Who wouldn't envy this heartwarming family of four
What I envy most is still Song Jingye's mother. Don't even mention grandchildren, as long as Song Jingye agrees to get married, she will be happy with everything. If I didn't know about his previous feelings for Lu Yaoyao, I would really think that working among men, he fell in love with some man.
Song Jingye arrived last, keeping a low profile. He sat in a corner, quietly watching the happy family of four on stage. Seeing Yaoyao's sweet smile, he felt genuine happiness for her.
He had intended to make a brief appearance and leave, but as he looked around, all the people his age present seemed to be accompanied by their families. He was the only one alone, and he didn't want to become a target, especially since his mother, upon seeing him enter, had a look of resentment in her eyes, as if his late marriage was a grave sin.
He turned his head to look elsewhere, and happened to see Chen Lihui, who was also being low-key and arrived later than expected. Their eyes met, and Chen Lihui froze instantly, seeming to be caught between two choices.
After a moment of hesitation, she chose to silently leave the banquet. Song Jingye hurriedly got up to chase after her, but only saw her solitary figure driving away.
He frowned and went back to the ballroom. His mother came over: “Has Xiaoning left”
"Hmm."
He sounded cold, ever since what happened last time, his relationship with his mother had been almost severed.
Song's mother said, "This can't be blamed on me. Back then, it was a mutual agreement between you."
Song Jingye didn't want to argue with her about this anymore, especially not in this situation, so he chose to remain silent.
He originally planned to say hello to Gu Ruandong and Yao Yao when the banquet ended before leaving, but halfway there, he was seen by Lu Kuo, who directly pulled him: "I made an appointment with Zhuo Yu'an and Gu Ruandong tonight to go to that restaurant we went to last time, you must come."
Song Jingye asked inexplicably, "What are you doing"
"If you don't come drinking, I'll go to your house and get you."
No matter whether Song Jingye agrees or not, Lu Kuo's business will stick to him like a leech.
Four people gathered for a meal and drinks, from different walks of life. They seemed unrelated at first glance, yet their lives were intertwined in countless ways.
Zhuo Yu'an and Gu Ruandong not only have a cooperative game company but also some real estate projects in cooperation;
Lu Kuo and Song Jingye are not only related by family, but also by their current affiliation with the Senbing Group. ;
Gu Ruandong and Song Jingye need not be mentioned. Aside from work matters, just the matter of YaoYao is enough for Gu Ruandong to give him a toast of respect.
But today Song Jingye did come, but he sat there motionless, not touching a drop of alcohol. Seeing this, Gu Ruandong just smiled and said nothing more.
Lu Kuo shouted: "Why are you here if you're not going to drink What a bore."
The three married men were all brought up in strict households and rarely got the chance to drink. Today, they had all received special permission from their wives to let loose and have a good time.
Song Jingye took a sip of tea and said slowly, "I'm free to drink whenever I want, it doesn't matter if it's today."
"Nobody cares about you, how impressive." Although Lu Kuo wanted to avenge himself, he wasn't a person who pressured others to drink and wouldn't make things difficult for them.
He often has to attend social events now, and his alcohol tolerance has improved. Song Jingye doesn't drink, and he wouldn't dare challenge Gu Ruandong, so he can only turn his attention to Zhu Yuyan. After knowing him for so many years, he hasn't found a single flaw in Zhu Yuyan.
Zuo Yu'an never loses his composure in front of outsiders. Getting drunk is simply not something that happens to him. Lu Kuai turned his thoughts, wondering if it was because he had no tolerance for alcohol that he refused to drink
Like discovering a new continent, he reached out with his sinister hand toward Zhu Yu'an, determined to make him lose his composure once.
Gu Ruan leaned against the chair, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. He saw through everything and knew that Lu Kuo, like Yao Yao said, was courting humiliation himself.
Song Jingye was absent-minded today, constantly looking at his phone and completely failing to immerse himself in the atmosphere.
After a while, Lu Kuo's wail was indeed heard: "You can drink so much"
Zhuo Yu'an smiled and said, "It's natural!"
Lu Kuo finally acknowledged the reality. Neither Zhuo Yunan nor Gu Ruandong was someone he could defeat. The only one on the field who stood a chance against him was Song Jingye, but Song Jingye wasn't in his usual form today. Before Lu Kuo could even speak, he got up and said, "I have something to attend to, I'll leave now. Let's get together another day."
The departing figure was straight, each step imbued with the unique air of professionalism.
"Are you dating someone"
Lu Kuo tutted twice, he had only had a little too much to drink today. After Song Jingye left, he had calmed down. Without him to liven up the atmosphere, the remaining two men became even quieter. Since it was a private gathering, both Zhuo Yunan and Gu Ruandong were also very casual. The final scene was the three of them each holding their phones, playing by themselves, bored out of their minds.
Why not just go home and be with your wife
Because their wives were also having a dinner party tonight and asked them not to bother them, Zhuo Yu'an and Gu Ruandong sent several messages in a row, but no one replied.
Only Lu Kuò's information was answered. He held up his phone and said, “Ruǎn Ruǎn said that Lán and Lù Yào Yào were both drunk and going wild.”
No sooner had the words left his mouth than the two men were gone like the wind.
Three people, three cars, each with their own driver to take them there.
On the way, they saw Song Jingye, who had just left, pulling with a young girl by the roadside. None of them were free to gossip, only looking from the rearview mirror, it seemed that after the tug-of-war, the two hugged each other.
Author's words: Here comes our Kyōno-kun, no goodbyes.nation room for a full check-up after arriving at the hospital. Zhuo Yu'an sat there silently, his expression terrifying. Xiao Xin slowly moved to the farthest position from him, lest she be caught in...
