Mr. CEO Wants to Renew Our Contract-Chapter 972: With You Always (117)

"Obviously, it was Mother-in-law who brewed it, and you want me to say that I did it. My father knows me better than anyone else; I can’t brew wine, I can only drink it."

"He hasn’t seen you for quite a while. How would he know if you can or can’t? Just try not to have a spat with your father; for the sake of me and our child, maintain a good relationship with him. Who knows, we might need his help in the future, right?"

Jun Xiangyi reluctantly agreed, "Got it."

The couple went back to the Heavenly World together for the Heavenly King’s birthday celebration.

Gu Lili also specially came back.

Her primary purpose for coming back wasn’t to celebrate the Heavenly King’s birthday; she mostly missed Long Yubei and their two children.

In such a short time, she couldn’t see the children, but at least she could have a good look at Long Yubei.

After all, he was definitely going to be there today.

Today, she had specially dressed up nicely because the relations between the two realms had improved a lot; Rong Fei came with her.

Seeing Jun Xiangyi, Gu Lili’s eyes first fixed on her belly, "It’s already this big?"

"Aunt, you might not know, I’m only one and a half months pregnant, doesn’t it look like four or five months?"

"Not looks like, it really looks like."

Jun Xiangyi hooked her arm around hers and whispered, "Snake pregnancies last just three months."

"Is it an egg inside?"

"Uh-huh, yes." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"Congratulations, you’re going to be a mom." Gu Lili reached out to touch her round belly.

"Aunt, how are things in the Demon World?"

Gu Lili glanced at Rong Fei who was seated, "Everything’s fine."

Seeing she didn’t look like anything was wrong, Jun Xiangyi felt relieved, "That’s good. I actually didn’t want to come. My husband said it’s better to come, lest others say we’re not sensible."

Gu Lili agreed, "You should come, no matter what, you shouldn’t give people a reason to talk."

Jun Xiangyi whispered, "The wine was brewed by Mother-in-law, but my husband asked me to tell my father it was made by me."

"He really knows how to manage things." Gu Lili looked at her rosy face, "It seems like you’re having a great time at your in-laws’, just look at your radiant little face."

"Aunt, you don’t know how considerate Qing Lian is," Jun Xiangyi whispered, "He’s really good to me."

"Looks like we were wrong to be wary of him in the beginning," Gu Lili laughed.

"Who would’ve thought, I was still wondering if he had ulterior motives for marrying me. But now, what motive could he possibly have with me?"

"Come on, grab a seat, everyone is already seated."

"Alright."

Jun Xiangyi went to sit next to Feng Qinglian, while Gu Lili sat in her usual spot.

She had just knelt by the small tea table when people from the Netherworld arrived.

After a few days’ absence, seeing Long Yubei made Gu Lili’s eyes light up.

Naturally, he looked at her first, and they smiled at each other.

"Bang!" A chopstick pierced into her table, forcing her to snap back to attention and look at the perpetrator, Rong Fei.

Gu Lili glanced at him, then continued to look at Long Yubei.

Rong Fei’s face turned completely cold. Before, he had no idea she was Ding Xiang, but now that he did, he found her deeply affectionate gaze at Long Yubei quite an eyesore.

Jun Xiangyi hadn’t stopped nibbling since she sat down, Feng Qinglian had brought her some snacks, considering this kind of longevity celebration could actually be quite dull.

Plus, pregnancy made her easily hungry, and since the meal was late, he let her have something to fill her stomach.

She felt someone watching her, so she looked up and realized that the person staring at her was none other than Xu Mohan.
