It would be impossible to say that there was not the slightest expectation in his heart.
However, with Sheng Yun's cold and proud personality, he shouldn't be able to do something like proposing marriage. Maybe I overthought all of this.
Lili looked at me with a smile that wasn't a smile. There was a hint of profoundness in her eyes that made me ask curiously, "Yiwa, why are you looking like that?"
"What's my expression?" Xia Yiwa smiled as she held my hand and said, "I'm just happy. Don't think too much about it. Let's go, we're going up first."
Shang Yang drove the car to the parking lot. Xia Yiwa and I chatted and laughed as we went upstairs. Afterwards, we pushed open the door of the LOFT.
As soon as we entered, we could smell the fragrant aroma of roasted meat, and in the large, spacious room there were several long, white, high-end tables, enough to accommodate forty or fifty people, with flowers, plates of fruit, and Western pastries of various styles, all looking so dazzling that it seemed as if we were about to have a feast.
In the transparent, completely open kitchen, four male chefs who looked very tall and big were wearing high hats, enthusiastically cooking delicious food.
On the other side of the dining hall, a large stage had already been set up. The audio and lighting masters were already in position, and in the corner were all kinds of musical instruments such as piano, cello, violin, and saxophone. Many staff were shuttling between the tables, placing all kinds of delicious food on the table.
The aroma of barbecue I smelled was that of a little suckling pig being roasted on a charcoal fire with an iron bar, and the scent of spices wafted up to my nose with the aroma of barbecue. All kinds of delicious food smells mixed together, Chinese, Western, French... It was as if a feast of taste was about to begin. It was like a feast that was about to begin. Everyone could not help but feel heartened and wished that it could begin as soon as possible.
Wasn't it a small party? But looking at the grandeur and grandeur behind it, it seemed to be able to accommodate two to three hundred people.
I was speechless. "Yiwa, what are you trying to do? What should we do? It's like a wedding banquet? "
"I don't know about that! Ask my brother! "Anyway, I'm only responsible for eating!" Xia Yiwa winked at me and gave me the hint.
Seeing her like this, he knew that she must know the truth, but she didn't say anything about it.
"So hungry!" Xia Yiwa subconsciously swallowed her saliva, directly taking a small piece of cake that was shaped like a maple leaf and eating it. She exclaimed, "Where did my brother find these pastries? It was too delicious! And the taste is very unique! "
"Is that so?" When I saw her, I picked up a piece of pastry and tasted it, and found that it was indeed as she had said, delicious, cool and soft in the mouth, and melting in the mouth, not much like a western pastry, but somewhat like an ancient court pastry, though of a modern and delicate shape.
"It's really delicious." I took a bite and commented.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a babbling sound coming from a certain room. When I heard the sound, I was stunned.
Yes... Zaizai?! Zaizai is here?!
How could that be possible? Sheng Yun had clearly said that he would not bring Zaizai at night.
Subconsciously, I followed the sound and when I passed through the kitchen, I discovered that there were several guest rooms at the back of the kitchen, which were probably prepared for everyone to take a break from.
These few months have been busy. Every time I visit him, he has already fallen asleep. I can only look at him quietly for a while, then kiss his little face, then rush back to work with Sheng Yun.
He had worked overtime a few days ago, and it had been more than ten days since he had last seen him. If she could see him now, that would be great.
The door was ajar, and when I pushed it open, I saw a fat baby sitting in an exquisite cart. Nanny Liu, who had just been hired by Sheng Yun, was playing with the bell, waving her little hands, and grinning from ear to ear, with her mouth overflowing with saliva, and her skin as white as jade, and her eyes as big as bells, looking at me with interest, and then she grinned and laughed!
When I saw this scene, my eyes immediately moistened. I rushed over and hugged Zaizai in my embrace. He giggled as he tied up my hair, but I was so excited that I started crying.
"Nanny Liu, why are you two here?" I asked, looking at Nanny Liu.
"Yun sent a car to pick Zaizai and me up. We haven't seen the little guy for so long, you must miss him too, right?" Nanny Liu said with a smile.
"Yeah, I really want to, but I've been too busy lately. Several times I wanted to accompany him, but I've been held up by all sorts of things." I said while hugging Zaizai.
"How long have you not seen your child?" When Xia Yiwa saw me like this, she immediately understood.
"Less than half a month." I gave him a big kiss on the cheek. Looking at his pink little face, I felt a kind of heartfelt affection and guilt. "Baby, Mom missed you so much."
I didn't expect the little guy to be so calm compared to my excitement. He looked at me with wide eyes at first, and then, when I kissed him, he actually frowned and pushed me away with some resistance.
He made a pitiful grimace and stretched out his hand to his aunt, then burst into tears.
"The child rarely sees you, so he recognizes you as a child. When he grows older and finds out that you're his mother, he'll kiss you." Nanny Liu was Sheng Yun's senior monthly sister-in-law, and she had a lot of experience with children. She saw Zaizai start to cry, so she picked him up and held him in her arms.
As I watched, I felt both a little sad and a little sad at the same time. It was very sad to think that the child I had spent so much time giving birth to in October would actually be born to me.
However, I can't blame the little guy. I've been working at full capacity for the past few days, and I can only give him to my aunt for her to take care of. That's why he and I are strangers.
Xia Yiwa and I teased the little guy for a while, but he soon broke into a grin. I couldn't help but take the child from Nanny Liu's hands. I said to Nanny Liu, "Auntie, let me hug him. I know how to tease him."
I took the child out of Nanny Liu's arms. Although he was reluctant at first, I quickly grasped the method of coaxing him. After all, he was still young and didn't have the ability to distinguish between them.
"In the end, it was you who gave birth. You got familiar with it so quickly." Seeing this, Xia Yiwa hooked her finger at Zaizai's nose and said with a smile, "Did you get Zaizai's name?"
"Sheng Yun has already thought of it. It's called Sheng, a rare type of bamboo. Sheng Yun said that he hopes that Sheng Yun can be as tall, aloof and proud as bamboo and continue to grow upwards." I smiled.
"Sheng Yun, Sheng …" It sounds like two brothers. " Xia Yiwa said with a smile.
"Yeah, your brother said he wants to be brothers with his son in the future. He doesn't want to be father and son; father and son are too reserved." I said, smiling, and suddenly realized how much we were talking, as if we had been married for a long time.
The door of the room wasn't closed. I heard a commotion from outside, as if a lot of people had swarmed into the hall.
"Didn't you say it was a small party? Why does it sound like there are a lot of people here? " I asked Xia Yiwa suspiciously.
"Let's go and take a look." Xia Yiwa smiled mysteriously and shook her head at me.
I hugged Zaizai and was just about to walk out with Xia Yiwa, when Nanny Liu hurriedly said, "Shubei, let me take care of Zaizai first. Yun said that he can only let Zaizai stay in the room for now, so he'll be out later. I also need to help him change his clothes."
When I heard something was wrong, I quickly turned to Nanny Liu. "Why? Why do you have to change clothes? "
"Shubei, I think you're really too busy these days. Yun is planning to give Zaizai a 100 day feast." When Nanny Liu heard my question, she immediately gave up and told me everything.
Hundred Day Dinner … We mentioned this not long ago. At that time, he kept saying that there was no time, so we had to let it go. At that time, I was not happy, but I didn't want to show it, so I wanted to find some time to call my best friends over to celebrate with Zaizai.
I didn't think that this time, he would want to go in front of me. He actually hid the fact that I had prepared such a grand feast.
"Both of you know? Why didn't you tell me? "As a mother, I didn't prepare anything for Zaizai." I said, surprised and annoyed.
"My brother has to let us talk. He said that you worked too hard during this period, so he told us not to tell you anything and to give you a big surprise." You don't have to worry about gifts. The gifts you prepared for Zaizai are all western style. I've already prepared them for you. Xia Yiwa said with a smile.
I didn't expect them to be so well-prepared behind the scenes. I looked at Xia Yiwa emotionally and said, "Thank you."
"You don't have to be so polite with me. When I have a baby in the future, just remember to return this big gift to me." "I'm definitely going to be Zaizai's godmother. In the future, my child's godmother will definitely be yours. We've made a deal!" Xia Yiwa said with a smile.
"Yes, of course." I couldn't help but laugh.
At this moment, I heard someone calling my name outside, so I reluctantly handed Zaizai over to Nanny Liu. Then I pulled Xia Yiwa and walked out together.
The previously empty hall was now filled with people. Those who had come earlier were all dressed in evening attire, appearing extremely grand.
It seemed that all the guests knew that Sheng Yun was hosting a Hundred Day Feast for Zaizai, and I was the only one who was still in the dark.
Just as I was wondering, I saw Sheng Yun push open the door and walk in. Behind him were two people carrying a white dress. Sheng Yun caught sight of me in the crowd and then smiled at me without saying a word …
