Chapter 1044: The Celebration Begins
To Jin Long’s surprise, he found himself unable to turn down this rare opportunity. Naturally, he didn’t hesitate for a second. So, it was that Gong Xin joined the group setting up the firecrackers.
As the moment to light them drew near, Jin Long, mindful of Gong Xin’s safety, kept a careful eye on her. Normally, after lighting the firecrackers, one would dash off to the front with joy. But this time, Jin Long stayed close, protecting the young woman behind him, not caring if the firecrackers might explode in his direction.
With a series of “pop, pop, pops,” the firecrackers erupted, fireworks lighting up the night sky.
The glow of the flames illuminated their faces, and Gong Xin turned around, her smile radiant like a blooming flower. Her eyes, full of affection, fell on the tall man before her, who was carefully watching over her.
The children around them cheered, hands clapped to their ears, reveling in the spectacle.
The firecrackers continued, “crackling, cracking” until they finally died down.
When the last echo of firecrackers faded, the sky had darkened, signaling that dinner was about to begin. The children, hand-in-hand, ran inside, excitedly chattering, “I’m going to tell my mom! We should sit at a kids’ table. It’s so boring to eat with the adults.”
Outside, Su Bing stood, holding Su Le’s hand, waiting for the children to settle. Once he confirmed all the kids were inside, he was about to enter himself. Just then, something caught his eye. His gaze flicked to a shadow hiding nearby. Without hesitation, he walked over.
The Hu brothers, all dressed up, stood in a corner, nervously huddling together. They were caught off guard by Su Bing’s sudden approach.
“Well, since you’re here, why not come inside?” Su Bing asked, his voice calm.
Da Hu, his face flushed, stepped forward and handed a gift to Su Bing. “This is a gift from the three of us for Auntie Gu Zi. A selection of the best pastries. We have some business to attend to, so we won’t go in. Su Bing, could you help us deliver it to Auntie Gu Zi?”
Despite knowing that the Su family wasn’t snobbish or concerned with wealth, the Hu brothers couldn’t shake their unease in the face of such a high-class venue. With luxury cars parked outside and the grandeur of the restaurant, they were afraid that their presence would embarrass the Su family. After much deliberation, they chose not to go inside. When Su Bing saw them, they took the chance to ask him to deliver the gift for them.
Su Bing studied them for a moment, then said, “Since you’ve gone to the trouble of coming here, you can deliver it yourself.”
