'Cheers! ’..... Today is the Chinese New Year, and even if they cannot return to the embrace of the motherland to reunite with their families, those wanderers who are adrift and across the sea and the ocean will gather together to toast and celebrate with their closest friends.

In a warm and chic Chinese restaurant in Oxford, a sweet couple sits by the window, happily exchanging something, and the woman will bow her head from time to time, caressing the slightly bulging pregnant belly with a loving face, which should be a happy event. The two of them sat at a four-person table, and the seats opposite were empty, and it seemed that there were still guests who had not yet arrived.
'Do you think that's a nice name?' the woman asked softly
'Yes, a gentle, humble gentleman, called Devyn,' the man said softly
After hearing this, the woman smiled and said, "Then why don't you call Dai Wenjunna?"
The man said strangely, 'Doesn't that sound strange,' and before he could finish speaking, both of them laughed happily.
The wind chimes rang, and a father and daughter came in from outside the door, the man's standard British suit, with a golden eye on the bridge of his nose, leading a little girl with a watermelon head, the little girl was very obedient, and two big black eyes were swirling around.
'Mingde, here,' Dai Heng beckoned and shouted
Huo Mingde led the little girl to the empty seat and sat down, stroked the little girl's head and said, 'Higgins, say hello'
Higgins shyly looked at Dai Heng and Bi Di in front of him, and said 'hello' in a milky voice
Bidi looked at Higgins tenderly and said, 'Hello, you're so cute'
'How's it going, when will I see my godson' Huo Mingde asked with a smile
Bi Di looked at Dai Heng, and Dai Heng said with a smile on his face, "It's almost there, there's still a month."
Homingde bowed his head and said to Higgins, 'You're going to have a lovely brother soon'. Higgins lifted his little brain, looked blankly at Bidi's stomach and asked, 'What's his name?'
Bi Di stroked his belly, tender as water, 'He called.... Davin'....
Once upon a time, Harato was still a sturdy, handsome, high-spirited young man, but now Harato stood in front of the mirror, tearfully fiddling with the folds on his face and the few gray hairs left on his head, and sighed from time to time, 'Hey, no, no, it's time to retreat'
"Hey, don't look at your appearance is out of step with the times, but the spirit is still there" An elegant man walked in outside the door, it was Huo Mingde
"you, who can't keep up with the times, I understand what you know, and I understand what you don't understand" Harato shouted with a glare, originally angry but a little funny
Huo Mingde smiled and waved his hand and said, 'Yes, you are right'
'What's the matter with you,' Harato said, walking away from the mirror and sitting down on the couch.
'It's nothing important, I got together with Dai Heng and Bi Di just now, Higgins said that he missed his grandfather a little' Huo Mingde finished speaking, Higgins came out of nowhere, screaming and pounced on Yuan Teng.
Hara's originally gloomy face suddenly turned rosy, and he opened his arms and said happily, 'Oh, my good granddaughter'
Higgins looked at it as if she cared about her grandfather the most, and she didn't have the shyness at the dinner table at all by Harato's side, and directly pulled Harato's beard with a big grin.
'Where did you go today?' Harado said with a smile
Today, Daddy took me to... It's time to eat,' Higgins replied in a milky voice
Huo Mingde looked at the happy appearance of the two men and daughter for a while, put down a pile of papers on the table, and quietly left.
Walking out of the Mercury guardian family, Huo Mingde hurried towards the house, his brows were tightly locked, his body was tense, and he looked like he was a little unwell. As soon as he entered the house, Huo Mingde began to untie his clothes in a panic, walked into the kitchen while taking it off, panted heavily, trembled and picked up the water glass, ready to drink water. Suddenly, a sharp pain came from the brain, which was only a momentary pain at first, and then began to continue to experience labor pain and dizziness.
Huo Mingde gritted his teeth, the sweat on his forehead kept sliding down his face, only to feel that the light and shadow in front of him overlapped and blurred, and he was gradually about to lose consciousness. Homingde's lips closed and he muttered something as if to someone else, but he was the only one in the room.
When Huo Mingde opened his eyes again, it was already morning. He got up and tidied up his messy clothes, and seemed to be used to it, not at all surprised why he suddenly fainted. Huo Mingde walked into the house, picked up the calendar on the bedside stand, carefully looked at the date that had been ticked on the calendar, picked up his mobile phone and dialed a call.
'Where are you' Hommin is simple and straightforward
'You're waking up so soon?' The other person on the phone was surprised
'Don't talk nonsense, where are you,' Hommin said
'Cafasta'
