100 Days Of Escaping My Wedding-Chapter 457 Happy Birthday
Chapter 457: Chapter 457 Happy Birthday
Shen Letian still played the pity card in front of Nana from time to time, trying to garner sympathy.
Their relationship had eased recently, and he didn’t want to fight with her again over someone silly, but she was really going too far.
Han Yingnai had wanted to counter that Shen Letian was the one with a beastly nature, but upon reflecting that Gu Hangshen’s death was inextricably linked to Qin Yao, she thought that must be why Shen Letian would say such a thing. So after some reflection, she felt she shouldn’t have such an attitude towards Shen Letian and swallowed back the words she had intended to say.
The girl actually didn’t retort, which was truly an unprecedented occurrence; Shen Letian was quite surprised.
"I won’t disturb you all, I’ll be leaving first." Qin Yao’s expression was indifferent, and he wasn’t upset or embarrassed by Shen Letian’s attitude.
It seemed that as long as the person wasn’t Xiaoqiao, he was stingy with his reactions no matter who it was.
Xiaoqiao, however, suddenly grabbed his hand, "It’s more lively with more people, let’s celebrate together!"
It would be too suspicious to leave just after arriving; how could it be that a fiancé wouldn’t stay to celebrate his own fiancée’s birthday?
"Okay." Seeing her say so, Qin Yao naturally nodded without hesitation. The only thing he cared about was her attitude; he didn’t mind other irrelevant people.
Immediately, Shen Letian’s face darkened.
Han Yingnai, exceptionally ’virtuous’ for once, also pulled on his hand to soothe him, "Alright, let’s not make a fuss, it’s Xiaoqiao’s birthday today! We can talk about any grievances some other time!"
Shen Letian immediately felt his anger dissipate, and he let it go.
Xiaoqiao looked at Han Yingnai with slight surprise. This girl seemed to have become much more ’virtuous.’

Knowing Xiaoqiao couldn’t see, Leng Jing told her, "Today, everyone has come. Shen Letian and his group, sister-in-law, Xiao Jue..."
"Thank you all." Xiaoqiao smiled, and then asked, "What about Xiao Nian and Grandpa?"
"They couldn’t stay awake and fell asleep, both the old and the young are as stubborn as kids, insisting on waiting for your return. I persuaded them for a long time to go to sleep first, saying that when you come back, I’d wake them up."
"I’m sorry, I came back too late!" Xiaoqiao apologized.
Leng Jing looked at her worriedly, and then glanced at Qin Yao, "Don’t shoulder everything all by yourself, okay?"
Xiaoqiao: "Okay, I know."
"Mommy—"
Without waiting for Leng Jing to go and wake them, the house treasure, having heard the noise, tumbling out of bed with sleepy eyes, ran out, followed by a smiling Grandpa Gong, "Xiaoqiao is back! I’ll go make the noodles right now!"
"Treasure! I’m sorry, Mommy came back late!" Xiaoqiao hugged her treasure in her arms, kissing his eggshell-smooth little cheeks. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Seeing her treasure, Xiaoqiao felt all her exhaustion vanish, and the gloom in her heart was swept away.
"Wishing Mommy a happy birthday!"
"Thank you, treasure!"
Watching Xiaoqiao and her child’s affectionate interaction, as well as the genuine happiness on her face, Qin Yao’s heart felt somewhat bittersweet.
"Grandpa, make extra! We’re hungry too!" Tang Yu hopped after Grandpa Gong.
Leng Jing looked at Tang Yu somewhat dazedly; these past days, Tang Yu seemed like a changed person, especially at work. It seemed like a long time since she had seen him relaxed like just now.
"I’ll help too." Xiaoqiao was about to go over there but was stopped by Lan Shan, "You’re the birthday star today; how can we let you cook? I’ll help out, you just sit and enjoy!"
