She held her forehead as she felt the pain from the explosion. The sweat on her forehead had long since been dried by the cold air from the air conditioner. At this moment, her nose was a little stuffy.

She frowned, thinking, I can't possibly fail to catch a cold, right?

If Xi Muyao saw this, she would have to listen to his nagging again. Those concerns that would never have belonged to her again, she didn't want at all.

It was enough, she felt.

After today, after this summer solstice, the old man's mood improved a little, or else she would have just told him the truth.

Sure enough, after hanging up, less than half an hour later, Lu Qinghuan arrogantly opened the doorbell.

Just as Qingli was about to turn around, she saw that the nanny, Nanny Liu, had already walked to the door and hurriedly opened it.

The Lu Qinghuan in front of her, after one year of not seeing her, had actually become even more charming and moving. However, the sharpness in her eyes did not change at all, they looked exactly the same as Old Master Lu's.

Nanny Liu and Qinghuan greeted each other warmly and Qinghuan took out a fur coat from her luggage. The wrinkles on Nanny Liu's face deepened.

It was only when Qingli could not hold back her laughter and coughed lightly that Qinghuan finally regained her senses and ran over to hug her.

"Sis, you're even more beautiful now!"

Although Qinghuan had an arrogant and habitual attitude, she talked quite softly to Wu Nong. When she was not angry, she looked just like a little kitten.

"Damned girl, do you remember your sister?!" Hurry up, go upstairs. The old man is getting impatient, if you don't appear now, you'll get angry again. "

"Alright, got it. Does he really miss me?"

With that said, Qinghuan curled her lips and walked towards the stairs.

Back then, when she was determined to marry that Jiangnan scholar, the old man really did throw a lot of tantrums, leaving her with no relationship between father and son. However, Qinghuan had always been pampered at home, and even if she hadn't given in, the old man would actually compromise in the end.

Sometimes, Qingli couldn't help but think that if she hadn't followed his plan in the beginning, and instead married to the man she missed in her heart, wouldn't the end be like this?

Seeing Qinghuan, the old man's face swept through the haze that had hung over his face. Even though he didn't say much on the surface, Qingli could still see from the bottom of his eyes that his birthday was going to be even happier than every year it had been in the past.

The lunch was held at the biggest clubhouse in the city, as Xi Muyao entertained the guests while laughing until his face and muscles were a little stiff.

During the meal, Qinghuan was searching all over the huge table, when she suddenly screamed: "Brother-in-law! Where's my osmanthus cake? Didn't my sister tell you? "

Xi Muyao was startled for a moment, then raised his head and quickly glanced at Qingli. Qingli was picking at the plate with his head lowered, bored, but her attention was suddenly interrupted.

Just as he was about to explain, he heard Xi Muyao say in a bland voice, "Oh, I'm really too busy today. Tomorrow, Brother-in-law will buy it for you, okay?"

"You weren't like this in the past, every time you came to my house you would bring them. Why is it that once you get my sister, you don't even put me, your sister-in-law, in your eyes?"

Qinghuan pouted, causing everyone around the table to laugh.

Someone echoed Lu Jinghao and complimented him, "Mayor Lu, your third young miss is so pretty, and her eloquence is so amazing!"

When Lu Jinghao heard it, he immediately waved his hands, "No need for that, I've been spoiled since I was young. Everyone, don't laugh at me!"

Although he said this, his eyes were full of smiles.
