?Chapter 434: 420, Father-in-law and Son-in-law Wine Contest (2)_1 Chapter 434: 420, Father-in-law and Son-in-law Wine Contest (2)_1 The next second, when she saw the person following behind her, both Mo Xiao and Jian Luo’s similar faces showed a touch of astonishment.

“Come in.” Jian Qing said.

Ever since he got in the car, the smile on Grandpa An’s face has never disappeared. Seeing Mo Xiao sitting in the living room, the wrinkles in his eyes involuntarily deepened.

Uncle Qiu helped him walk over, and Mo Xiao finally came to his senses, rising and striding towards him.

“Grandfather, why did you come here?”

He reached out to support Old Master An, asking with a puzzled look.

Grandpa An gripped his hand firmly and snorted, “Why can you be here and I can’t? I remembered your birthday, you ungrateful rabbit. I haven’t seen you for days.”

Despite his joking manner, a sense of loneliness could be perceived in his words.

Mo Xiao brushed his affectionate gaze downward, without uttering a word.

“Darling, you just went out to buy a cake!” Xiya’s eyes sparkled when she saw Jian Qing take the cake from Quan Jingwu’s hand.

Mo Xiao helped Old Master An sit down, raised his head and saw the cake on the table. He looked at Jian Qing in surprise.

“Qingqing, you…..”

Jian Qing took off her coat, smiled lightly and said, “I just found out today is your birthday. I hadn’t prepared anything, so I bought a cake.”

Upon hearing this, the warmth rose from the bottom of Mo Xiao’s eyes, warming his heart.

“Let’s not just stand around, let’s blow out the candles and make a wish.” Xiya clapped her hands together, laughing merrily.

Jian Qing smiled faintly, assisting her in unpacking the cake.

Unwrapping the package, the delicately made cake was exposed to the air.

Jian Qing lit a candle and placed it on the cake. Suddenly, she looked up at Jian Luo and waved at him.

“Luoluo, come here.”

Jian Luo has always obeyed Jian Qing’s words. He got up and walked over to sit next to Mo Xiao.

The siblings were seated on either side of Mo Xiao.

The flickering candle flame made Mo Xiao’s smile even brighter. He looked at his children sitting next to him and suddenly realized that celebrating a birthday could be a very happy thing.

“Uncle, make a wish to blow out the candles.” Xiya urged.

Mo Xiao looked over at Jian Qing, who smiled, saying, “Make a wish.”

He nodded and closed his eyes to make a wish.

“Done.”

In a few seconds, he opened his eyes and blew the candles out in one breath.

“Dad, happy birthday!” Jian Qing said warmly.

Mo Xiao touched her head, the smile in his eyes almost overflowing.

“Dad, happy birthday!”

A gentle voice sounded in his ear, like a big surprise landing on Mo Xiao’s head.

Jian Qing smiled softly.

Looks like their father was stupefied from joy.

Mo Xiao turned his head with difficulty, his face showing a rare vacant expression, which seemed somewhat funny.

“What, what did you just call me?”

His fingertip trembled slightly, and his chest was filled with joyful throbbing.

Jian Luo faintly smiled, his eyes revealing less distance than before.

“Dad, happy birthday.”

Then, he shrugged his shoulders, teasingly saying, “However, I didn’t prepare a gift.”

Mo Xiao laughed heartily and embraced him.

His nose felt sour, he patted Jian Luo’s back, saying, “For you to acknowledge me, that’s the best gift for me.”

He was satisfied, very satisfied.

Jian Luo met Jian Qing’s smiling eyes, the smile at the corner of his mouth deepened.

Across from him, Grandpa An watched the embracing father and son. He wiped the tear from the corner of his eye and smiled satisfactorily.

Mo Xiao let go, patted Jian Luo’s shoulder, his body radiating joy.

He is Mo Xiao’s son!

“Let’s eat the cake.”

Jian Qing handed the knife to Mo Xiao, letting the birthday person cut the cake.

After Mo Xiao made a few cuts, Jian Qing picked up a piece of cake and placed it in front of Grandpa An, “You should have some too.”

“Okay.”

Although she didn’t call him ‘Grandpa’ as he had hoped, he was satisfied with her current behavior.

“Old uncle, this piece is for you.”

Xiya picked up a piece of cake and handed it to Uncle Qiu.

Uncle Qiu smiled and took the cake.

“Thank you.”

Xiya waved her hand, “No need to thank me, not at all.”

Afterwards, she joyfully ate a piece of cake herself.

Quan Jingwu never had much interest in sweets like cake, occasionally he only enjoyed a few bites of cake offered by Jian Qing.

At this moment, Mo Xiao unexpectedly put down the cake in his hand and looked at Quan Jingwu, “Kid, how about a drink?”

Having been fooled by him multiple times, today he was determined to drink him under the table.

He had to defend the authority of a future father-in-law till the end.

Jian Qing turned her head to look at him, a hint of mischief in her eyes.

“Xiaojing, you’ve been challenged.”

Quan Jingwu lowered his gaze to look at her, gently wiping off the crumbs of cake from the corners of her mouth.

“Naughty!”

Mo Xiao, “…”

He again felt as if he had been disregarded.

Quan Jingwu raised an eyebrow, looking at him fearlessly, “Ready when you are.”

Jian Luo swallowed the cake in her mouth, her eyes gleaming with slyness.

“I’m joining in too.”

At that, Jian Qing and Xiya looked at him simultaneously.

“Are you sure?”

They both asked at the same time.

Jian Luo pridedly hummed, “Of course.”

He was joining, but whether he drank or not was up to him.

Watching the three of them head to the dining room, Jian Qing heaved a sigh.

It seemed that the alcohol in her cabinet would not be safe tonight.

“It’s getting late, Qingqing, I think I will leave first.” Old Mr. An spoke up.

Jian Qing looked out the window into the pitch darkness and gently nodded, “I’ll have Xing Sen send you home.”

Old Mr. An simply replied ‘okay’.

Not long after hanging up, Xing Sen arrived. Jian Qing accompanied Old Mr. An to the door and watched him get into the car before returning inside.

As soon as she walked into the room, she saw a certain pregnant woman still eating cake; her eyelid twitched.

She walked up to her and grabbed the piece of cake from her hand.

“My cake.”

Xiya stared at her with a gloomy look and said quickly.

Jian Qing put the cake far away, then sat down next to her, “Eating so much so late, aren’t you afraid of overeating?”

Xiya licked her lips, still unsatisfied, “But I’m not full yet.”

“This was already your third piece, if you keep eating and have a stomachache all night, see who cares.” Jian Qing flicked her finger against Xiya’s forehead.

Xiya pouted and glanced towards the direction of the dining room, “Aren’t you going to stop them?”

“Why would I stop them?” A hint of amusement flashed in Jian Qing’s eyes as she responded calmly.

“Aren’t you worried they’ll drink too much?” Xiya asked.

Jian Qing responded, “That would be perfect. Throw the three of them into a room to sleep, makes it easier.”

Xiya smirked playfully, winking at her, “Oh, if the three of them are sleeping together, wouldn’t that leave you alone in your room? Do you need me to keep your bed warm?”

Jian Qing glanced at her irritably, “Go sit somewhere else.”

“Come on, let’s go upstairs and look at my newest photography projects.” Xiya stood up, patting her belly as she spoke.

“You’re planning on having a photo exhibition?” Jian Qing asked.

Xiya shook her head, “Recently all my attention has been on my little girl. As for the photos, I’ll think about showcasing them when I feel like it.”
