Destined Wife: The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 48 Fei Family’s Dinner Party

“Ha ha!”

Yan Hua smiles and touches the head of her chubby son, then points to Lang Ruoxian and says, “He is not your mommy but your uncle.”

“Mommy!” Gungun rubs against the arms of Yan Hua.

“Yes, I am your mommy, and that is your uncle!” Yan Hua does not give up and continues to teach him.

Gungun looks up to see Lang Ruoxian, and calls him, “Mommy!”

Yan Hua is speechless.

Forget it...

“You are too anxious.” Lang Ruoxian looks at the chubby meatball who is trying to climb up the table, and quietly drags a pile of small steamed buns to his own side.

While Yan Hua fetches a spoon, Gungun has already climbed up the table, and is climbing towards Lang Ruoxian.

“Gee! Gungun!” She wants to hold her son back, but Gungun is pointing at the small steamed buns and keeps humming without stop.

Lang Ruoxian doesn’t wait for her reaching out and carries Gungun with his arms. He tells Yan Hua, “I have finished eating, so I can look after him.”

“Mommy!” Gungun looks up and calls Lang Ruoxian.

Yan Hua has a bad feeling that maybe her son will call anyone mother.

Just then a house maid comes over with steamed egg custard. She hasn’t said anything yet and Gungun is particularly pleased to call her, “Mommy!”

“Oh, dear!” The house maid smiles, “Little Master, I am not mommy but granny.”

Gungun sees her laughing so happily, so he is more determined to call her Mommy. When he opens mouth to call, something sweet is fed into his mouth.

“Eyah?” He feels the taste in his mouth and his eyes slowly widen, twinkling like little stars.

Yan Hua looks nervously at Lang Ruoxian, for fear that he would feed what Gungun could not eat.

“This bean paste is made by ourselves, and Little Master can eat it.” The house maid puts down the egg custard and says, “Childe Ruoxian, please let me feed him.”

Lang Ruoxian smiles and says, “It OK. I will feed him.”

He glances at Yan Hua again and finds her still nervous. He uses his chopsticks to dip into the bean paste of the smashed bean bun, then feeds Gungun with it.

“Oh oh!” Gungun has eaten such a sweet thing for the first time, excitedly waving his chubby arms. And he looks up to call Lang Ruoxian, “Mommy!”

Lang Ruoxian laughs in a low voice, while Yan Hua has already started to eat bird’s nest soup, with one hand on her forehead. So she doesn’t hear Lang Ruoxian’s whispering in Gungun’s ear.

“Why are you so stupid? You weren’t mistakenly handed to us by the nurse when you were born, were you?”

Lang Cha is going back to the country today. He holds Gungun in regret and says, “It is a pity that I can’t hear you call me great-grandpa.”

“Grandpa, we shall go to see you when spring comes, then pick you up to come back together then.” Yan Hua pokes her son’s chubby face and says to him, “Gungun, say goodbye to great-grandpa!”

Gungun looks at his great-grandpa and suddenly plunges into his arms and rubs against him.

Lang Cha lets out of a cry of joy, and his laughing face is wrinkled. Then Gungun calls him with a cute baby voice.

“Mommy!”

“Ha ha!”

The people around couldn’t help smiling. Yan Hua sighs helplessly and says, “Gungun, you should call him grandpa, great-grandpa, not mother.”

“Ha ha ha! It doesn’t matter. Our Gungun just learns to talk, and he will be better soon.” Lang Cha hands Gungun to Yan Hua and says, “Thanks for your hard work, Hua.”

Yan Hua smiles and says, “You should take care of your body. If you miss Gungun, you just make a phone call.”

Lang Cha nods and looks at Lang Ruoxian beside, saying, “You two are the only ones staying at home during the Spring Festival. Take good care of the mother and son.”

“Grandpa, don’t worry. I will.” Lang Ruoxian sends Lang Cha away and comes back in the evening.

He doesn’t come back alone. Xiaokai walks in front and shouts, “Let me see Little Master!”

Behind Xiaokai there are two bodyguards carrying the luggage, then Lang Ruoxian slowly enters.

“Ah ah!” Yan Hua hears the noise and comes out, holding Gungun. Xiaokai gives a whoop of joy, “It looks exactly the same as Childe Ruoxian!”

Yan Hua’s mouth twitches, while Lang Ruoxian says a little ironically, “If Gungun is not like me, should he be like you?”

What is he talking about? Yan Hua glares at him.

“Ha ha ha, he is so cute!” Xiaokai reaches out and carefully touches Gungun.

Gungun calls him, “Mommy!”

“What did he call me?” Xiaokai is taken aback.

“He just learns to talk and calls everyone mother.” Yan Hua helplessly explains.

Xiaokai keeps laughing for a long time.

Lang Ruoxian goes back to the room to change clothes. When he comes downstairs again, Xiaokai has already left, and Yan Hua remembers the invitation.

“It should be OK.” Lang Ruoxian returns the invitation to her. “The previous generation of Fei Family was an aristocratic family of G City. It is said that someone of Fei Family used to be the prime minister in the Qing Dynasty.”

Yan Hua curiously asks him, “Have you also received the invitation?”

“Of course.” Lang Ruoxian glances at her. “I represent Lang Family.”

“So, what do I represent? “ Yan Hua asks, “You have represented Lang Family, then why do they give me such a woman the invitation?”

Lang Ruoxian looks at her meaningfully and says, “Don’t worry. I will go with you. When you arrive there, you will know why they want to invite you.”

Fei Family’s dinner party is scheduled on Saturday night. On that afternoon, Yan Hua accompanies Gungun to take a nap. She wakes up in advance, so she plans to choose what to wear in the party, but she receives a message from Lang Ruoxian to let her go downstairs.

“What’s the matter?” When Yan Hua goes downstairs, she finds that a lot of people are standing in the sitting room, carrying large or small boxes.

When they see Yan Hua, all of them are excited.

“Madam Hua!” Everyone greets her with one voice.

Yan Hua has become accustomed to such title. She nods to respond and asks, “What are you going to...”

“Help you make up.” Lang Ruoxian loosens his tie and tells her, “You go to the small parlor, and I’ll go upstairs to accompany Gungun.”

“Ah?” Yan Hua still has something to say, but the stylist wearing a pink shirt has already excitedly run to her. “Madam Hua, please trust me. I will dress you up as the party queen!”

Then he reverses his previous statement, “I am wrong. You are very beautiful even without dressing up!”

Yan Hua has been dressed up by a crowd until the sun sets. But when she sees herself in the mirror, she feels that it is worthy.

“You are so beautiful!” The makeup artist has already started to wipe away tears excitedly.

“You are really beautiful!” A voice comes from the door direction, with no fluctuation in tone. That is Lang Ruoxian, who is leaning on the pillar and looking at Yan Hua.

The red strapless evening dress reveals her exquisite figure. The long tulle is worn on her shoulders, and floats in the air when Yan Hua turns. Her face with makeup is glamorous, like Helen of Troy.

“Thank you.” Yan Hua looks at herself in the mirror and raises her hands to touch her face.

She is accustomed to so beautiful herself, as if she used to see herself to be like that in her memory...

“Where is Gungun?” She slowly walks towards Lang Ruoxian.

Lang Ruoxian is short of breath for an instant and is almost out of control to touch her.

“The house maid is feeding him in the restaurant.” Lang Ruoxian coughs and says, “You’d better not see him now.”

Yan Hua nods to agree, for she can’t hold Gungun because of dressing like that. So just don’t go.

“I’d like to go upstairs to get something.”

Lang Ruoxian looks at his watch and answers, “Just take your time, for we still have enough time.”

When Yan Hua takes a small handbag and goes downstairs, she sees that Lang Ruoxian has changed clothes into a royal blue suit and a black shirt. The diamond snap buttons on the neckline and cuffs are a little more exaggerating than usual. He looks more like an aristocrat in those comic books.

“Let’s go.” He is very satisfied with the amazing results his appearance produces to Yan Hua, and containedly makes a gesture of invitation.

After they get in the car, Yan Hua finds that the man’s temperament changes.

“Remember, don’t be too far away from me at the party. Don’t drink something that is specially given to you. Don’t leave with others casually.” The man sitting opposite looks at her, with his slanted eyes and the corner of his mouth slightly upturning.

If the man was like an aristocrat just now, now he is like a cult leader, a particularly handsome villain.

“I think that you certainly don’t want to have an accident and have to be saved by me every time.” The villain is still despising her.

He is not an aristocrat but a demon!

Yan Hua snorts back and answers, “I know.”

He needn’t say so. She will be careful. She is not an idiot. How can she always be framed?

Fei Family’s dinner party is held in their own villa, so their car just goes around the hill where they live. Because the villa of Fei Family’s is also located in this area and there is only a large garden between Fei’s mansion and Lang’s mansion.

“There may be a happy surprise later.” When they get out of the car, Lang Ruoxian reaches out to Yan Hua. “Remember, you are a member of Lang Family so no one can bully you.”

There is seriousness in Lang Ruoxian’s eyes that cannot be ignored, and something else that Yan Hua cannot understand. She has no time to think about it, or maybe she doesn’t want to think about it. She lowers her head as if she dodges his sight, getting out the car with Lang Ruoxian’s assistance.

The arrival of the two makes quite a stir. The Gothic-style hall has long been crowded and noisy. When Lang Ruoxian and Yan Hua appear, the hall seems to be quiet for a moment, then people restart conversations one after another.

“Mr. Lang.” A man comes over and Yan Hua is a little surprised to see him.

This man looks... How to describe him?

If you look at his facial features separately, he is ordinary-looking. However, when you look at his whole face, he is amazingly handsome, which makes that you can’t help staring at him all the time.

“Miss Yan!” The man nods at her and his attitude is neither too warm nor too cold.

Yan Hua is even more surprised. And she also feels a little happy.

This is the first person to call her Miss Yan, not Mrs. Lang.

“I am Fei Yi.”

“Hello, I am Yan Hua.” Yan Hua reaches out.

Fei Yi shakes hands with her gently and says a puzzling word to her, “My wife and daughter will be very happy to see you.”

Yan Hua is puzzled and doesn’t know how to respond.

Fei Yi does not say much, and personally takes them to the rest area, so that people around know that Fei Family show goodwill to Lang Family. Of course, there are no eternal friends or enemies in the business field, so their relationship in the future will be up to the situation.

“Fei Yi, does Miss Yan come here?” As soon as Yan Hua arrives, she sees a beautiful girl walking over in a hurry.

The poker-faced Fei Yi, whose eyes suddenly turn gentle, reaches out to hold the girl. “Slow down, please. You are wearing such high-heeled shoes and take care not to fall. Miss Yan will not leave.”

Yan Hua blinks, looking quite puzzled. Who is this girl?

“Miss Yan!” The girl takes her by the arm with typical enthusiasm. “I finally have a chance to meet you. I am Fei Ying.”

Yan Hua thinks that she is not Mrs. Fei.

“This is my wife.” Fei Yi adds.

Yan Hua is surprised.

“Miss Yan, please come with me!” Fei Ying smiles and says to Yan Hua.

Yan Hua instinctively looks at Lang Ruoxian, who nods to her.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Lang. I will take good care of Hua!”

Yan Hua doesn’t have any impression that she has met Mrs. Fei before, but why does Mrs. Fei show to be so familiar with her?
