Ye Hao had sent out invitations for today’s full moon banquet a few days in advance.
Sun Ming was the first to arrive.
Perhaps it was a bit awkward for him and Ye Hao to just stand around idly.
So as soon as he arrived, he jumped in to help with anything that needed doing.
Ye Hao watched Sun Ming, who seed even busier than him.
Ye Hao had a pretty good impression of his brother-in-law Sun Ming.
His family background was decent, and he himself was quite accomplished.
After several interactions, Ye Hao had internally accepted this brother-in-law.
"Take a seat and rest for a bit, soone will be here soon."
Ye Hao said to Sun Ming.
"Ah, okay."
Sun Ming was a bit nervous; this was his first ti being alone with Ye Hao, and he wasn’t sure what Ye Hao thought about him and Ye Qian.
The last ti they talked about his marriage with Ye Qian, Ye Hao seed a bit distracted.
Sun Ming was anxious, wondering if Ye Hao didn’t approve of them.
"No need to be nervous. Have you and Qianqian decided when to get married?"
Ye Hao suddenly recalled them ntioning marriage once, but at that ti, his mind was all on Gu Yi.
Since then, he hadn’t heard any news about their marriage.
"Well, Qianqian said she hoped to get married around the New Year. Uncle said we could go back to our hotown then and hold a banquet there."
Sun Ming explained their plan to Ye Hao.
Ye Hao nodded after hearing it.
"That sounds great. It’s also a way to let the villagers know our girl is getting married and to share the joy."
"Yes, I know. My parents are looking for a date, and they plan to finalize our marriage soon."
As Sun Ming continued talking with Ye Hao, he gradually relaxed.
Hearing that they were going to set a date for their engagent, Ye Hao felt more satisfied with Sun Ming’s family.
While they were chatting happily, Zhang Qing ca in.
After Ye Hao made introductions, Gu Yi and the others arrived with Ye Huan.
Zhang Qing hurriedly slipped the red envelope he had prepared into Ye Huan’s swaddling blanket.
Soon, other guests arrived one after another.
With Li Yitian, Wang Yuan’s family, Sun Ming’s family, Zhang Qing, and Gu Yi’s group, there were a total of 14 people.
The table was fully packed.
During the banquet, everyone kept offering congratulations and constantly praised Ye Huan.
"You all need to stop praising her so much, or else she’ll get conceited."
The Gu family’s custom from their hotown was that you shouldn’t overly praise a young child; you should say the opposite.
This way, the child would beco more well-behaved.
Everyone laughed after hearing Gu Yi’s words.
Sun Ming’s parents were particularly fond of Ye Huan at the full moon banquet.
Looking at their eyes filled with envy, Gu Yi knew they were undoubtedly a bit envious.
Gu Yi originally wanted to say sothing, but after glancing at Ye Qian, decided against it.
Gu Yi didn’t want to seem like she was urging Ye Qian.
After the banquet ended, Xie Qingyi pulled Gu Yi aside.
"Yiyi, the exam is in ten days. Make sure to review at ho the next few days. If you have ti, prepare a design draft for your graduation project; we’ll select the outstanding ones to display on the school’s bulletin board."
Gu Yi nodded after listening.
When Xie Qingyi and the others were about to leave, Wang Yuan insisted on staying, saying she wanted to go play with Gu Yi.
"Play what? Yiyi needs to rest now. If you go there chattering, it’ll be too noisy."
Xie Qingyi was afraid that once Wang Yuan got to their place, she wouldn’t be able to control herself.
After all, Gu Yi had just finished her confinent period and still needed plenty of rest.
"Teacher Xie, let Yuanyuan co to my place for a while. I’ve been cooped up at ho for too long and would love Yuanyuan to chat with ."
Gu Yi quickly stepped in to speak.
It wasn’t just to help Wang Yuan out; she genuinely wanted to chat with her.
Yuanyuan always had plenty of gossip, which was quite entertaining.
In the end, Xie Qingyi couldn’t resist Wang Yuan’s insistence and allowed her to go ho with Gu Yi, but she reminded her to co back early.
When Wang Yuan’s mom agreed, she happily jumped up.
"Sister Yi Yi, your words really work. At ho, when I said I wanted to go to your place, my mom was afraid I’d disturb you and wouldn’t let go."
Wang Yuan spoke with a wronged expression.
Gu Yi couldn’t help but laugh listening to her childish words.
She found it particularly enjoyable to be with Wang Yuan, and all the qualities Yuanyuan possessed indicated she ca from a happy ho. She was like a jade, hard to part with.
Gu Yi inadvertently noticed that Li Yitian was also watching Wang Yuan with a smile.
And there was a pampering look in his eyes.
Gu Yi was montarily stunned, then glanced at Wang Yuan, who seed oblivious.
Sothing was going on between these two, but she couldn’t tell if both liked each other or if it was a one-sided crush from Li Yitian.
After chatting a bit more at the restaurant entrance, everyone finally headed ho.
"Sister Yi Yi, is giving birth really painful? Just how painful is it?"
Wang Yuan was particularly curious about this. Each ti she heard others talk about it, it was said to be very painful, but how painful was it really?
"Why are you so curious about this? Are you considering having one yourself?"
Gu Yi joked.
"Well, it’s an eventual thing. Just wanted to know."
Wang Yuan was not embarrassed at all.
"By the way, I’ve been aning to ask, is there sothing going on between you and Li Yitian?"
Gu Yi asked directly.
"Li Yitian? What could be there? Mostly just delivering design drafts to him frequently."
Wang Yuan replied, puzzled.
She was seriously thinking about what could be between them.
"That’s it?"
"Of course, what else would it be?"
Wang Yuan pondered for a while and then nodded firmly.
Gu Yi watched Wang Yuan’s reaction and thought back to Li Yitian’s deanor today.
It seed like a one-sided love.
Putting the two together in her mind, Gu Yi thought they were quite a good match.
She decided she should make an effort to set these two up.
"Have you noticed anything different about how Li Yitian treats you?"
Gu Yi tried guiding the conversation to Li Yitian.
"Different? Is there?"
Wang Yuan was a bit puzzled.
"What kind of boyfriend do you want in the future?"
Gu Yi suddenly changed the topic.
"I haven’t thought about it much. As long as it’s mutual attraction, I guess."
"Like peas in a pod?"
As soon as Gu Yi said it, she couldn’t help but laugh.
Imagining the scene, Wang Yuan laughed along with Gu Yi.
But on the way back, Wang Yuan kept thinking about what Gu Yi said today.
What was different?
"What were you and Wang Yuan chatting about just now, looking so happy?"
After Wang Yuan left, Ye Hao finally had a chance to sit next to Gu Yi.
"Our classmate Li Yitian is in love, but it’s unrequited."
While tidying up the red envelopes in her hand, Gu Yi smiled and shared what she had observed with Ye Hao.
She also briefly recounted her conversation with Wang Yuan.
"That’s great news. It saves him from envying us."
Ye Hao said with a laugh.
But it was also his honest thought.
He actually admitted that Li Yitian was outstanding. Although he believed nothing would happen between Li Yitian and Gu Yi,
having them work together every day could lead to rumors from others.
If Li Yitian and Wang Yuan got together, all such rumors would naturally be dispelled.
The more Ye Hao thought, the better he felt about them being together.
