Chapter 496 - 497

Yun Xuan was holding the naughty little boy on her lap. She had just finished feeding him when Lin Ye called. Since he was the only friend she had remaining in Country C, aside from her mother and eldest brother, she could not reject him. After all she had decided to remain in Country C and not go back to County G.

"I don't have any plans yet. What kind of event is it?" 

"The Annual Designer awards. I have been nominated." 

"Congratulations. Since you have been nominated, I will make effort." 

Lin Ye's face revealed a smile. Her words were just casual. Why did they make it sound like he was a little special to her? 

The fact that she had agreed to accompany him to such an important event was already good enough. He should not be too greedy and ask for too much.

At the same time, Wan Jia hung up a call and recieved another. 

When the call was ended, her assistant brought some documents that needed her approval. 

She was very busy lately because the Annual Designer Awards were just a few days away. 

Seventeen welcomed Lu Aotian into her office. He was carrying a glass of warm milk. "Don't forget to take care of your health."

Wan Jia took the milk and smiled at him. "Of course our baby is the first priority no matter how busy I get. 

On a side note, I managed to nominate three of my top designers." 

"Congratulations CEO Wan, that was great effort on your part." Lu Aotian was impressed. EFW had only managed to nominate one. No one had restricted them from nominating more designers, it was only because the only one who qualified for such an award was Dai Youran. 

With three top designers from MAX competing for the same award, Dai Youran's chances were much lower. Actually, Lu Aotian didn't mind. It was only because it would be strange for the nation's top fashion studio did not participate. It was more or less a formality for him. 

"I will attend the ceremony on Saturday to support my designers. Is President Lu willing to accompany me?" 

"If I do not accompany my wife, what else will I be doing?" 

Wan Jia hugged his arm. Her husband was so considerate. She placed his hand on her bump. "It's not going to be easy to get the right outfit." 

"Don't worry about that." Lu Aotian said. He had already found one. He rubbed her stomach fondly. He could feel some slight movements that made Wan Jia chuckle. So this was what it felt when an unborn baby moved. 

He had a proud smile on his face. His second child must be a small darling. He did not mind that his child seemed to be smaller. 

Actually, Su Ling's bump was much bigger despite being just twenty four weeks pregnant. They all thought that she must be carrying twins. Su Ling did not want to confirm it yet so although the doctor knew, she did not tell them.

On the same day, Lin Lihua was taking her daughters home to see Xia Rou. 

That was right. She had two daughters. After Amy Blanc's funeral, Henry Blanc legally adopted Katy Blanc. She could now freely call him "daddy" without making people find it strange. 

Despite that, she still did not talk to Lin Lihua, much less call her mother. Even the word aunt would not be heard from her. 

She was still afraid of Lin Lihua even after Henry Blanc explained to her that her grandmother had lied to her. 

Today, she was only going to the Lin residence because Henry Blanc had insisted that she had to go too. 

....

Xia Rou loved children and was cheerful to hear that her granddaughters were going to pay a visit. 

She rushed out as soon as they arrived. 

"You guys are finally here. I have been waiting for you." 

"Hello mother and father. Have you been fine since we last saw each other?" Henry Blanc greeted his in-laws and brought the gifts he had prepared. 

"It's already good enough that you guys found time to come. You didn't have to bring gifts." 

"Don't be too polite mother, we like you so much that we have to bring gifts. Besides, you are meeting Katy and Ruoxi for the first time." 

Xia Rou held the small hands of Katy and Ruoxi. "This beauty with curly brown hair must be Katy, and the cutie with dark hair must be Ruoxi. Am I right or not?" 

Lin Lihua humphed teasingly. "That was obvious. It's nothing to be so smug about." 

After all, everything about Katy spelled that she was from Country F. Who would get it wrong? 

Ruoxi looked up at Xia Rou and smiled. She was more friendly lately "Hello aunt." 

Katy was also under the impression that Xia Rou was their aunt. 

Lin Lihua burst out laughing. "Girls, she is your grandmother." 

Ruoxi covered her eyes in embarassment. "I thought she is our aunt. She looks very young and is very similar to second aunty." 

Xia Rou felt giddy from the indirect praise. "My dear Ruoxi thinks I'm young and pretty. Come on, the food will get cold if you guys do not start eating soon." 

Throughout the whole meal, Xia Rou had a lot to chat with with the girls. They were very cheerful and Xia Rou had cooked many delicious dishes for them. 

However, one person was completely silent. And that was Lin Zhou. Lin Lihua wondered what exactly he was thinking about. Was something wrong with the company?

Or was it.... she did not want to think that way of her father but.... could he be unhappy that she adopted Ruoxi and Katy, two girls instead of boys?
