Chapter 175, Vanity "Is it Ms. Xie? Since we're all here, let's go together? I see you still have a gift in your hand, is it for Uncle He?"

"Yes..." Lanxi nodded in response, feeling a little confused. She never expected Mother Peng to be so kind to her. After all, on such an occasion, her appearance threatened her daughter!

He handed over the packaging bag he was holding in his hand, put it on the coffee table, then gently pushed it, and said with a smile, "Uncle, this is a gift for you, I hope you like it."

"Hmph." Father He raised his eyebrows and let out a disdainful sound.

When Lanxi saw this, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but fortunately she still maintained a smile.

"Brother He, don't be like this. It's just the child's wish. If you don't mind, let me take it apart for you?" Mother Peng said with a smile.

After seeing He's father silently agreeing, Peng's mother reached out, took out the box inside the packaging bag, opened it, and said in surprise, "It's a pair of cufflinks! Brother He, take a look, it's very beautiful! And the color The choice is good, it seems that Miss Xie has a good eye."

Being swept over by Peng's mother's eyes, Lanxi smiled a little at a loss, wondering if she was too nervous, and always felt that the second half of the sentence had something to say.

Father He raised his eyes slightly, and when he saw the color of the pair of cuff buttons, the corners of his eyebrows moved without leaving a trace. Dark red was his favorite color, but even if he was happy, he would not show it at all. The plate smells even worse.

"This brand, I remembered, I bought it for my old Peng before, and it's quite expensive! It seems that Miss Xie really puts her heart into it!"

After speaking, Mother Peng turned the topic to her and asked, "But what is Miss Xie's job? With such a big deal, this pair of cufflinks will cost six or seven thousand at least?"

"Uh, I'm just an ordinary company employee." Lan Xi was startled, and answered honestly.

Seeing this, Peng's mother just smiled gently and dignifiedly, and said nothing more.

Father He was listening, with some disdain in his eyes, he turned his head to look at Hedy and asked, "Xing Yin, quickly show me what the gift you prepared is?"

"Okay!" Hedy nodded happily, and then put the boxy box she was carrying on the coffee table.

After opening it, Hedy smiled sweetly at Father He and said, "Uncle He, this is a cake I baked at home with my own hands. The longevity peaches on it may not be very good. Don't laugh at me!"

"Why did you bake it by yourself? It's too much trouble, just buy one!" Father He raised his eyebrows and said when he saw this.

"How can I do that? It's your birthday. I have to express my heart well. Besides, many of the cakes bought outside are made of vegetable cream with high fat content. You are old and can't eat it. It's not good for your health. This is me. Make it yourself, you can eat it with peace of mind!".

After saying these words, Father He beamed, "Oh, this child! She is indeed the daughter-in-law of our He family. Not only can she go to the hall, but she can also go to the kitchen. It's rare!"

"What's more, your Uncle He only celebrates his birthday once a year, so he gave you such a humble gift!" Mother Peng interrupted at the right time, although her tone was reproachful, her eyebrows and eyes were light.

Sure enough, Father He protected Hedy and said, "Sisters and sisters, you can't say that. I think Xun Yin is very hardworking, unlike others, ordinary employees give away thousands of dollars, too vanity." !"

"Brother He, no matter what you say, you've put your heart into it."

"Xing Yin is intentional, and the rest, I think, is ulterior motives!"

The words pointed to something, and she was impartial, pointing directly at Lanxi, her hanging hands could not help curling up into balls, but her expression remained unchanged.

Originally, I thought it was a gift for Father He, and I knew his identity well, so I chose the expensive one on purpose, and spent almost two months' salary reluctantly, but I didn't expect it to be considered vain, with ulterior motives.

Although she couldn't hide her disappointment, she was still able to adjust, because even if she and Hedy exchanged gifts, Father He would probably be dissatisfied with her by then, and would think that Hedy was upscale, while what she gave was shabby.

The strength on her shoulders increased, she raised her head to look at He Chenfeng, those black eyes were staring at her deeply, and her pupils were full of her, so that there was power injected, she shook her head gently, telling him It's fine, it's all right.

*****************************************

But there was still an indescribable sense of emptiness.

When they were all walking towards the restaurant, He Chenfeng stepped forward, strode in front of her, looked down at her, "Xiaoxiao."

"Huh?" She looked at him puzzled.

"Let's go back." He frowned and said solemnly.

"Why?" Lan Xi looked at him blankly.

Holding her face in both hands, he pursed his lips and said, "I'm afraid you will be wronged."

"I don't have one." She shook her head and said innocently.

Seeing that his expression was still restrained, he stretched out his hand to cover him, and said with a smile, "He Chenfeng, I really didn't..."

"Stop laughing, it's so ugly." He Chenfeng frowned and said stiffly.

"Well, anyway, you said that I don't look very good." She shrugged, matching her brisk tone.

"It's not funny." His brows furrowed even deeper.

She softened her eyes even more, "We've all come here, how could we leave in the middle, I really have nothing to do, but I'm still a little nervous."

"If he said something ugly, you should pretend that you didn't hear it."

"En!" Lan Xi nodded heavily.

Ji Chuanyao, who was brought in by the servant, joked aloud when he saw the two of them, "Hey, did I read it wrong, why did I see a pair of poor little mandarin ducks!"

"Uh, Lawyer Ji." She was a little embarrassed by Ji Chuanyao's teasing.

"Go in quickly, or you will be upset if you attract Dad's attention in a while!" He Yixuan came out from inside, frowning.

He Chenfeng pulled her, and together with He Yixuan and Ji Chuanyao, walked inside.

Father He sat on the main seat, and when he saw the two people in front of him coming in, the displeasure in his eyes deepened again, and before he could break out, a cynical voice preempted him, "Uncle He, I'm late ! Are you always unhappy? It’s okay to be unhappy, I’ll pick you up from my house tomorrow, and celebrate your birthday every day!”

"What a boy, I thought you wouldn't come here! How are your parents?" Father He looked at Ji Chuanyao, raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.

"It's pretty good, but compared to you, it's almost there!"

"Also, why did you come here by yourself? Didn't you call me before and tell me to bring your daughter-in-law to me? When I got married, I was sneaky and I didn't even see her face. It's been so many years. You didn't even say bring it for me to see?"

"I was supposed to bring it, but she turned out to be disobedient and asked me to lock her up at home, and I will deal with it according to family law when I go back!" Ji Chuanyao said, his peach blossom eyes slightly narrowed.

Family law disposal?

Lan Xi couldn't help looking at He Chenfeng, a little worried, and asked in a low voice, "Lawyer Ji doesn't know lovesickness, does he?"

"What do you think?" The latter squinted at her funny.

"But what he said is so serious..." She frowned, still worried.

"Haven't you been dealt with by family law?" He Chenfeng raised his eyebrows, his eyes narrowed.

"Huh?" Lanxi was puzzled.

After he leaned over and whispered something in his ear, her little face became more and more red, thinking that every time she didn't go his way, she would change her ways to punish and torture her in that matter. Painful yet happy.

When Ji Chuanyao came, the atmosphere was stirred up, and even He's father couldn't help laughing and scolding, "You boy, you will never be in good shape!"

"Lawyer Ji is married?" After they all sat down, Peng's mother asked in surprise, then looked at her daughter, but said to He's father, "Xingyin Shenfeng, it seems that you two are really late Too much!"

"That's not it!" Hearing this, Father He's complexion sank again, and he said in a full-fledged manner, "Xingyin is a rare child, no matter what episodes happened in the middle, your marriage will continue as usual!" Then I see it.

"Dad, when I said the marriage was cancelled, I wasn't joking." He Chenfeng, who was about to bend down to sit down, frowned and straightened his back.

Father He was suddenly excited, he slapped his hand on the table, and was so outraged that he wanted to stand up.

Hedy at the side stretched out his hand with sharp eyes, supported Father He's arm, and diverted the topic away with a smile, "Uncle He, you celebrate your birthday today, let's talk about other things later!"

Mother Peng, who was sitting next to Hedy, frowned, and glanced at her daughter unhappy.

"Yes, Dad, today is your birthday. Come on, let me wish you a happy birthday. You will live longer than Nanshan forever. It is best to live longer than me and be an old naughty boy!" He Yixuan also stood up and raised her face. He raised his red wine glass.

"Hmph, forget about the old urchins, I'm better than anything else if you are all less angry!" Father He's face softened a bit.

He Chenfeng and Lanxi sat at the end of the table, which was relatively remote. Not long after they sat down, He Chenfeng's cell phone vibrated. When he took it out and saw the name and number on it, he was startled, and then frown.

After being silent for a while, he looked sideways at Lanxi, and approached, "I'm going to answer the phone."

"Hmm..." Although Lan Xi didn't really want him to leave, she still nodded.

Knowing her scruples, he continued to ask, "Why don't you stay with me?"

Just when she was about to answer, she caught a glimpse of Father He's sharp eyes sweeping over, and hurriedly pushed him and said, "Go quickly, I'm fine here!"

He Chenfeng nodded slowly, got up and walked out holding the phone.

The atmosphere of chatting and laughing at the dinner table was very lively. Sitting there, Lanxi seemed to be isolated. No one talked to her. Just like in the box that day, she was deliberately ignored, and only Ji Chuanyao who was close could Come over with food.

Sitting next to Father He, Hedy showed the younger generation's flattery to the fullest, chatted and laughed with Father He, and brought him food from time to time. In Father He's eyes, he seemed to like her very much.

When he was finishing cooking, Hedy took out his mobile phone, looked at the text message on it and said pleasantly, "Mom, Uncle He, my dad has returned from Beijing, and he will be here soon!"
