Chapter 532 - Little Brother (3)
The laughter of the little buns mixed with?Huo Yunhao and Lan Yunru's could be heard from the vast garden of Tang Moyu's property in Peach Blossom Garden. Hearing the twins' voice, the empress felt that her loneliness and tiredness dissipated into thin air. She couldn't believe how much she missed her little buns.
"Baobao? Little Star? Where's Mommy's welcome kisses?" Tang Moyu called out to her children before passing her luggage to Auntie Lu, who greeted them at the front door earlier.
"Mommy!" Xiao Bao ran towards his mother without waiting for Little Star. "You are back!" He wrapped his small arms around her t.h.i.g.h and looked up at her with glee.
"Mommy! Mommy! Happy birthday, Mommy!" Little Star was dressed in a baby pink dress today. Her long wavy hair was pinned into twin pigtails, giving her a more adorable look. She was holding her favorite bunny doll in one arm as she ran towards her mother.
Tang Moyu bent down to their eye level and gave them a hug. Goodness, it had only been a week since she last saw them, but she missed them dearly.
The two little buns wrapped their arms around her and kissed her cheeks at the same, making Tang Moyu smile. The three heard a shutter sound and looked up and saw Feng Tianyi holding an expensive camera in his hands.
"Sorry. I can't help but take a snap. It's quite endearing." He told Tang Moyu.
Tang Moyu rose to her feet, lifting Little Star in her arms. Xiao Bao was too heavy for her to lift up with his twin sister, so she offered for her son to hold her hand instead.
"That's fine. May I see?" She asked her husband.
Feng Tianyi moved to her side and allowed her to take a look at the display of the camera.
"Here." He said. "I've also taken some pictures earlier, before your arrival. You can check it later once the party is over." He gestured towards the gazebo in the garden. Thankfully, the place was large enough to accommodate their friends.
Tang Moyu followed his gaze and saw their friends already there, waiting for the celebrant. It was the second time for her and Feng Tianyi to host such an occasion and was glad that her birthday this year looked promising, compared to the ones she had.
"Moyu! Here!" Li Meili waved at her, trying to get her attention. Next to her, Gu Yuyao and Lu Tianxin were already seated. Tang Beixuan and Elaine Wu joined them the moment the three of them arrived. Lu Tianxin had arrived with Luo Luo and Ye Xiaozu.
The family of four moved towards the gazebo to join them. Thankfully, the weather that afternoon was favorable and wasn't humid. The sun was hiding behind the thick clouds in the sky and the afternoon breeze was quite chilly.
"Oh! The birthday girl is here! We can finally start!" Gu Yuyao clapped, indicating that they were ready to start.
"Please, no singing." Tang Moyu gave the Gu heiress a pointed look before laughter erupted from her circle of friends.
"Oh, Moyu. Why do you have to ruin your own birthday party?" Gu Yuyao retorted with a huff.
"Heh, at least we have a good reason to drink today." Li Meili raised an expensive bottle of wine that she brought with her.
"Oh my god, Sister Meili! Is that a Domaine Georges & Christophe Roumier Musigny Grand Cru 1990?" Meng Yanran gasped, covering her mouth with one hand in shock. One bottle alone would cost someone over eleven hundred dollars and there were only three hundred eighty bottles produced.
Li Meili gave her a cheshire grin.
"As expected of Miss Meng. You truly knew how to spot a good one, regardless if it's a jewel, a dress or a fine wine." She praised Meng Yanran, who blushed next to Li Yuanyi.
Li Meili raised an eyebrow at her older brother, but Li Yuanyi only coughed in his hand and cleared his throat, refusing to spill the beans to his sister. He had only gotten acquainted with Meng Yanran recently and he didn't want to give her a false impression just because of his younger sister.
"Ah, too bad I cannot drink and get wasted like you. Lianchen would surely go against it." Gu Yuyao sighed dejectedly.
"It's good that you know." He Lianchen scoffed beside his wife, then he became aware of the inquisitive looks they were receiving from everyone. "Oh, Yaoyao? You haven't told them yet?"
"Tell us what?" Tang Moyu asked.
Gu Yuyao pursed her lips, but it couldn't stop the smile that bloomed on her face.
"Everyone, we have something to announce." She placed her hand on top of her husband's and regarded everyone. "Lianchen and I are expecting…"
"Congratulations!" Li Meili clapped. Her lead was followed by the rest of their friends.
Song Fengyan gave He Lianchen a smack on his back.
"Good! Well done, Lianchen! At least you aren't too far behind me and Tianyi." He laughed at his friend's sour expression. He Lianchen had been grumbling about being left behind by Song Fengyan and Feng Tianyi, because they already had children of their own even before they got married.
"Congratulations, Auntie Yaoyao!" The Tang twins appeared next to Gu Yuyao and gave her a big hug and some kisses.
"Why's Auntie Yaoyao the only one who gets hugs and kisses? Where's mine?" He Lianchen complained to the little buns who he'd come to love.
"Don't be silly Uncle Number 2." Little Star playfully chastised him. "Of course Auntie Yaoyao got it first because she's carrying the baby."
The celebration for Tang Moyu's birthday and the new parents started and lasted through the night.
Somewhere within the city, Zhang Jiren looked outside the window of his penthouse with a glass of wine in his hand.
"Happy birthday to the two of us, Sis."
