Liu Jinhai, Nana, along with Liu Hai, Liu Chunhua, Jing, and the twins, entered the banquet hall. Nana looked elegant in the peach-colored gown with her big tummy. She walked a little slowly with the help of Jinhai.
The women were excited and looked forward to the drama. How can Huian have the face in front of her ex-husband? They were waiting to see her arrogant attitude smash into pieces. How can there not be any scene when the wife and ex-wife were standing at the same place?
Huian froze when she saw Jinhai. She suddenly started fidgeting with her fingers. It was barely noticeable, but her shoulders were trembling. Jing and Yukira noticed it. They kept silent.
Liu Hai smiled and greeted Xiang Wei and Xiang Qingge. He grinned in delight as he saw Huian. “Ah, Huian is finally able to sit in a wheelchair! That’s awesome!”
Liu Chunhua was also happy to see her doing well.
But Huian couldn’t hear it. All she could only see was Jinhai standing in front of her.
He smiled. “Dad is right. It’s great to see you recovering so quickly, Huian.”
Huian stiffened. She didn’t meet his gaze, but she could feel the intense stare he was giving her.
Nana nodded. “Yes, Huian. It almost seems as if it’s magic!”
Xiang Qingge chuckled. “It’s all because of Liang Shin, her doctor. He is so capable!”
The talk about her older brother perked Nana’s ears up. She felt proud that she was his sister. Her heart was racing as she was this close to meeting her family.
The guests were shocked. In contrast, nothing like that happened what they had imagined.
How could these two women act as nothing happened between them? Huian is the ex-wife who had plotted against them! Did they forget the Chen banquet? Even the families were on good terms.
The socialites couldn’t believe Huian’s luck. Even after everything that happened, Huian was still having a good relationship with the Liu family.
Was this the advantage of being childhood friends?
Whatever it was, it left a bad taste in their mouths.
Huian was such an arrogant princess in the past. She never bothered with these women. They wanted her to be humiliated and insulted. Instead, she still maintained her dignity tonight.
By then, the Chen family also came.
“Nana!” Chen Liling happily took Nana in her hug.
“Aunt! Uncle!” Nana hugged her back.
Chen Guiren also nodded. The Chen and Xiang family exchanged greetings as well. Huian smiled at them.
She felt fortunate that they were still treating her the same way.
“Hey, don’t forget me!” Jianyu whined. “Your good friend is also here.”
Nana sheepishly smiled.
“So, how is the little one inside you? Wow, your belly is really big.”
Jianyu looked amazed.
Nana chuckled. “Yes. The baby is very healthy, as you can see.”
Chen Liling said, “I can’t wait for this little one to come. Who would he or she take after? Nana or Jinhai?”
Liu Hai proudly said, “It’s, of course, the grandparent’s genes that would shine.”
Jinhai ignored him.
Chen Liling snorted. “Oh, please, big brother! Who wants your goofy face and attitude?”
Liu Chunhua nodded.
Liu Hai’s face turned sour. “Liling! And Chunhua, don’t support her!”
She shrugged. “Did Liling say anything wrong?”
Liu Chunhua and Chen Liling grinned and winked.
Liu Hai felt as if he was betrayed. “You are in this together!”
Jing cracked in laughter. “Right! Dad is out. So it would take after his handsome and capable uncle over here.”
The twins rolled their eyes. So shameless.
The guests could only watch this scene, dumbfounded all the time. The three giant families relationship still stayed strong.
From the corner of her eye, Nana saw another two familiar figures entering the hall. She froze.
Huo Shen and Huo Liwei also made their way inside.
Jianyu’s aura turned cold and dangerous. Jinhai narrowed his eyes, but he said nothing.
The Huo father-son duo was also shocked. Huo Shen had no idea that the Liu and Chen families were also invited.
After what happened five months back, they didn’t know how to face them.
Huo Shen had a complicated gaze. If Nana met Liang Xiao Dan or Zou or Shin, then everything was out. There would be millions of questions running through everybody’s minds, especially regarding Liang Xiao Dan.
But he decided not to interfere today. What happens would happen. He didn’t feel guilty about what he did in the past. It was all for Huo Xiao Fan. They just gave Liang Zou the same pain.
If fate wanted to reunite Nana with her biological family, then so be it. He knew it was fruitless to go against it.
Jianyu gritted his teeth. “What the fuck are they doing here!?”
Nana wondered if Huo Xiao Fan was also there with them, but she wasn’t. She didn’t see her anywhere.
Chen Guiren put his hand on Jianyu’s shoulder. “Calm down, Jianyu. They are Liang family’s guests. We cannot interfere.”
Jianyu clenched his fingers into a fist in anger. Even their sight disgusted him.

Huo Liwei saw Jianyu and had an urge to ask about Serena. He only knew that Serena had once called him and asked not to anything that goes on in her life and stay away from it.
But as a brother, how could he? He knew what Serena did was wrong, but he always considered Huo Xiao Fan as the major culprit who brainwashed her.
I will definitely talk to Jianyu tonight, he thought.
Nana somewhat understood why the Huo family was here. Since Huo Xiao Fan was Huo Shen’s wife, that meant that they were personally connected to the Liang family too.
Nana tugged Jinhai’s arm. “Jinhai. I have to go to the kitchen to start with the preparations.”
Jinhai nodded.
“Mom, Dad. Nana has work, so we are leaving.”
Xiang Wei asked, “Eh? What work?”
Liu Hai grinned. “Hehe~~~ My daughter-in-law is responsible for the catering of this banquet!”
Xiang Qingge smiled in delight. “Oh, dear! That is great! So we will all enjoy Nana’s cooking tonight.”
Nana felt a little embarrassed with the praise.
“Let’s go,” Jinhai said.
In a corner, Long Guozhi and Long Yanmei saw everything. Nana instantly took the spotlight as soon as she came and Long Yanmei could only glare hatefully at her.
“That bitch. She is just a lowly restaurant owner. A mere orphan with poor background! Why is she surrounded by such giant families?”
Long Guozhi said, “If you hadn’t messed up that day in the mall, we could have also been there right now! Useless!”
Long Yanmei felt hurt and bit her lip. She cursed Nana in her mind.
Huian glanced at Nana, who was leaving with Jinhai. She couldn’t even signal her that she wanted to talk to her alone. She clutched the handle of her wheelchair.
I must tell Nana the truth tonight. At any cost!

Liang Xiao Dan was helping to tie the tie on her husband’s shirt. She stepped back and looked at him from top to down.
She nodded. “En! You look perfect! How do I look?”
Liang Zou chuckled. “I think we will look more perfect if we are naked on the bed.”
Liang Xiao Dan rolled her eyes. “We will save that for later. I’m so glad that the arrangements went on as planned. Even the owner of Natsukashi agreed to cater to the banquet! Thank God, I really only wanted only her restaurant to cater.”
“Well, who can win against my wife’s powerful convincing skills?”
Liang Xiao Dan grinned. “Let’s go.”
—
Liang Zou and Liang Xiao Dan stepped out, arm-in-arm. The spotlight was on them as they were coming down.
The guests clapped, welcoming them.
Liu Chunhua and Chen Liling looked at Liang Xiao Dan, speechless.
“Is it only me, or she really looks like Nana?” Chen Liling asked.
Liu Chunhua couldn’t agree more. “Yeah…It’s strange.”
But Jianyu, Jing, the twin’s and Huo Liwei’s reaction were different on the whole another scale.
‘Huo Xiao Fan!?’
They looked at Huo Shen, who seemed unfazed.
What is going on?
Huo Xiao Fan was standing in a corner who had partly covered her face with the scarf.
After so many years, she was watching Liang Zou and Liang Xiao Dan up close in person.
So many memories came flashing by. Her eyes stung in tears.
They stood on the podium, and Liang Zou took the mike. He smiled.
“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for taking the time to attend this old man’s banquet who is yet to become a grandfather thanks to his still single son. Ah, the years are just passing by.”
Liang Shin spat the wine out of his mouth as he heard what his father said. He was coughing hard. He looked at him, dumbfounded.
Dad!!!!!
Liang Xiao Dan widened her eyes in horror. She had no idea he was going to say that.
The guests laughed loudly.
“Liang Zou is so funny.”
“Poor Liang Shin. He must not have expected this at all!”
They looked at the pitiful Liang Shin, somehow trying to reign his anger.
Huian also couldn’t help but laugh.
Nobody imagined that he would start the banquet at the cost of his own son’s joke.
“No sorry, son. Today is my birthday. I’m entitled to do whatever I want. Hahaha!”
Liang Shin felt devastated. He wanted to dig a hole and bury himself in it.
Liang Zou said, “Now that the banquet has started on such a good note, let the party begin!”
