The chief ex-husband won't let go of Yi Xiaobao

The fact that Liu Qian greeted her so generously at this moment made Lin Xiaoruo feel that Liu Qian was making fun of her.

She took a deep breath, her gaze falling on Shen Huai. She reached out and took his arm, her eyes filled with anticipation, and said softly.

"I don't know what Shen Huai's plans are. But if we're going to have a wedding, we'll definitely let everyone know in advance."

Lin Xiaoruo smiled sweetly as she spoke.

In Liu Qian's eyes, Lin Xiaoruo's smile looked particularly fake at that moment.

A hint of disdain flashed in her eyes, then she looked at Gu Yihuai, only to see that Gu Yihuai's gaze was still fixed on Lin Xiaoruo, and his hand under the table suddenly clenched.

Gu Yihuai stared intently at Lin Xiaoruo, his eyes filled with interest.

"It seems that Xiaoruo has recovered very well during this time. When I saw you in the hospital before, I thought that you would never recover in this lifetime, but now it seems that you have recovered."

"She really does need a man's touch."

"Young Master Shen has excellent taste."

Shen Huai's face darkened upon hearing Gu Yihuai's words.

She knew very well what kind of relationship Gu Yihuai had with Lin Xiaoruo before.

Gu Yihuai also knew that he knew about what had happened between them.

The fact that he's saying these things to him with a smile is undoubtedly a mockery of him for messing with someone he's already had.

Shen Huai remained silent, his eyes filled with deep displeasure.

Lin Qingran glanced indifferently at the extremely aggrieved Shen Huai, wondering what Zhao Xiang's purpose was in hosting this banquet.

Zhao Xiang sat quietly in her chair, observing the emotional changes of the person in front of her.

Lin Qingran accurately captured the look in her eyes as she scrutinized her.

It seems that "Zhao Xiang" is observing everyone's habits and the subtle relationships between them.

After all, some information is impossible to obtain, so Zhao Xiang can only find the answer in this way.

After learning of Zhao Xiang's purpose, Lin Qingran sat quietly in her chair, then looked up at Liu Qian and spoke in a gentle tone.

"Gu Moyu didn't come with you?"

Zhao Xiang just mentioned that she invited Gu Yihuai and his wife, as well as their child.

Reminded by Lin Qingran, Zhao Xiang looked at them with curiosity in her eyes.

"I really wanted to see Brother Yihuai's child, why didn't you bring him along today?"

Liu Qian pursed her lips. She knew that if Gu Yihuai was willing to bring her out to meet guests, then these people must include some of his acquaintances.

Although she hadn't expected Lin Xiaoruo to be there, it was still the first time she had met "Zhao Xiang," so Liu Qian didn't want her son to come into contact with these people too early in order to protect him.

"He was a little tired from playing today, so we rested before we left."

"Besides, there are no other children here to play with him, so I didn't bring my child with me."

As Liu Qian spoke, her gaze fell on Lin Qingran, and she whispered.

"Qingran, why isn't Xiaojinjin by your side today?"

Previously, Lin Jinjin and Lin Qingran were inseparable.

Surprisingly, I didn't bring it with me at the moment.

Liu Qian was good at finding a breakthrough point, and the topic was immediately turned to her.

Lin Qingran harbored no hostility towards Liu Qian. Upon hearing Liu Qian's words, she replied calmly and sincerely.

"She's with her father."

“Gu Moxuan has been taking care of the child during this period. We made an agreement that although we are divorced, we are still the parents of the child, so each of us will take care of the child for a period of time.”

Liu Qian nodded upon hearing this.

This is quite a lot of news.

When Lu Xueqi almost married Gu Moxuan, Old Madam Gu agreed to it for the sake of her reputation.

However, I've been feeling very depressed lately.

Gu Moxuan didn't even bother to go back to the old family mansion.

Old Mrs. Gu had long wanted to take over Lin Jinjin's upbringing from Lin Qingran.

Now that the child is with Gu Moxuan, it's convenient for Grandma Gu to go and persuade him.

Everyone present had different thoughts.

Lin Hao was late in arriving. Zhao Xiang waited for a long time before getting up and leaving the private room. As she walked out, Lin Qingran saw that she was holding a cell phone, clearly indicating that she was going out to call Lin Hao.

Lin Qingran sat there calmly, a slight smile playing on her lips.

She had already received news from Zhao Xiang that Lin Hao was currently tied up with Sheng Xia and couldn't come here at all.

Sheng Xia was quite resourceful in dealing with her older brother.

Just a few minutes later, Lin Qingran saw "Zhao Xiang" walk in from outside with a dejected look on her face.

Seeing Zhao Xiang like this, Lin Qingran then inquired with concern.

"What's wrong? Is there something urgent that you need to take care of?"

Upon hearing Lin Qingran's words, Zhao Xiang looked up at Lin Qingran and saw that Lin Qingran's expression was exceptionally sincere, not like she was acting. Then she spoke in a low voice.

"It's nothing. Brother Lin is tied up with other things and can't come today. Let's have our meal first."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingran frowned slightly, feigning ignorance and looking helpless.

“My older brother is always like this; he doesn’t know how to refuse. I guess he’s tied up with office matters again.”

“He resigned a while ago, but he still can’t completely extricate himself from that situation.”

Zhao Xiang did not deny Lin Qingran's words, and sat quietly to the side, then asked the waiter to serve the dishes.

Throughout the process, Zhao Xiang's demeanor was unusually subdued due to Lin Hao's absence.

Lin Qingran frowned slightly as she watched "Zhao Xiang's" every move.

The way Zhao Xiang is now makes it seem like she has a lot more genuine affection for her older brother.

A person's facial expression can be deceiving, but her eyes and the occasional glimpses of her emotions are easily discernible.

Just as Lin Qingran was about to speak, she suddenly felt as if someone's foot was hooking her ankle.

She glanced at her companion without giving a clear look.

Lin Xiaoruo was seen exchanging glances with Gu Yihuai, her eyes filled with a smile.

Gu Yihuai also had a smile on his face.

Sitting next to Liu Qian, Gu Yihuai's face was extremely ugly at this moment. If this wasn't Zhao Xiang's scheme, she probably would have stood up immediately and started cursing loudly at Lin Xiaoruo.

Seeing Liu Qian's current aggrieved expression, Lin Qingran raised an eyebrow.

She and Lin Xiaoruo were sitting quite close together, so Gu Yihuai probably accidentally stuck his leg out and touched Lin Xiaoruo while trying to flirt with her.

Lin Qingran remained calm, picked up a piece of food with her chopsticks and put it in Zhao Xiang's bowl, then raised her foot and kicked Gu Yihuai hard.

"Xiang'er, eat more of this dish. I've heard it's a beauty and health tonic."

Gu Yihuai was pulled hard by Lin Qingran, who kicked him in the knee.

His expression immediately showed pain, but he couldn't bend down to check his knee right away.
