Chapter 371: This Gift, It's Too Late
Before today's feast, many guests had already asked Huo Beiye why their born child should be taken care of first.
During this period, many ladies also asked Gu Xiaoxi about this problem.
Huo Beiye and Gu Xiaoxi didn't find this question difficult to answer, and both generously explained to them why they chose the surname Gu for their first born child.
Huo Beiye replied like this:
"Yihan is the crystallization of the love between me and my wife, from pregnancy to giving birth to the child, she is alone in the process of bearing the hardships.
Although the first child was a daughter, I thought that she would grow up to be as endearing as my wife, so I took the name after my wife. ”
And Gu Xiaoxi explained to the president's wife who had a good relationship with her:
"This is the name that my husband went to ask the abbot to take, and I know that it was chosen by my surname to make me happy.
Therefore, when a daughter is like me, she takes her name after my surname. When I have another child in the future, I will take my husband's surname.
The children were all born to me, and they all took my and my husband's surnames, you see, how fair. ”
This answer made the eyes of several presidents' wives seem to wake up.
"Well, why didn't I think of it at the time?"
Huo Beiye and Gu Xiaoxi walked to the front to express their gratitude to the guests, thanking them for their willingness to take time out to attend their daughter's 100-day banquet today.
There were many familiar faces among these people, and Gu Xiaoxi went from being so unfamiliar that he could already call their names.
Ladies and gentlemen, their sincerity has been received by both of them.
Mrs. Meng handed their child to Xiao Xi to hold her.
"I just found out that everyone is very curious about the surname of our little princess, and my wife and I have already explained it to you just now.
It's just a matter of surname, in fact, you don't have to worry about this. No matter whether our little princess has the surname of Mrs. or the surname Huo, it can't change the fact that she is our little princess.
All the guests who come to my daughter today are from a company that we have cooperated with, you know. ”
When the bosses in the seats heard this, their eyes lit up, they didn't expect to come to a banquet and give a gift to have such benefits, they simply earned it.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Huo!"
"You're welcome, let's eat a little more in that moment."
Today's banquet can be said to be even more lively than when they got married before.
Gu Xiaoxi is not very good at drinking, but in order to thank everyone, he still took a few sips.
Just as Gu Xiaoxi was chatting with several presidents' wives, Xiaomei suddenly came over and said a few words in her ear.
Gu Xiaoxi raised his eyes, "I'm sorry, I'll miss me first." ”
"It's okay, Mrs. Huo has something to deal with first."
Old Madam Meng inadvertently caught a glimpse of Xiao Xi suddenly walking towards the door, and was curious to follow up and take a look.
She had just taken a few steps when she was stopped by her old man, "Don't go, I just looked, it's that guy." ”
That guy? Old Madam Meng immediately guessed who it was.
When Gu Xiaoxi walked to the corridor, he saw Gu Yucheng leaning against the wall over there, holding a box that looked like a gift in his hand.
"You go in." I, Gu Xiaoxi, said to Xiaomei beside me.
Xiaomei nodded, understood, and went to the banquet hall first.
Gu Xiaoxi walked in front of Gu Yucheng step by step.
The father and daughter have now reached the point where they don't know what to say when they meet.
Gu Yucheng handed over the box in his hand.
"This is for you and Huo Beiye's daughter, I hope you don't dislike it. My current identity really can't be compared with those people inside, so I won't go in. ”
Gu Xiaoxi still reached out and took the gift handed over, in fact, she was a little bitter in her heart, but this bitterness couldn't alleviate the hatred in his heart for so many years.
And he just said Huo Beiye and her daughter.
I think it was the last time I was in the hospital when I said it so clearly, even if it was a dead face, I should be able to understand it.
Gu Yucheng came to give her a gift today, and now that the things have been delivered, he turned around and left.
Watching his back disappear into the elevator, Gu Xiaoxi slowly opened the box in his hand.
It is not so much that this gift is for her daughter, but that this gift is actually for her.
This gift was one that she and Gu Youyou liked at the same time, but there was only one at that time, and Gu Yucheng gave that thing to Gu Youyou without asking her opinion.
"Don't you think it's too late to send this now?"
Gu Xiaoxi originally wanted to throw it away, because she didn't want to have the same thing as Gu Youyou.
But when she really walked to the trash can, she still took the gift in, anyway, it was also his kindness, plus he was self-aware, so he took it for the time being.
Below the hotel, two police officers were waiting for Gu Yucheng, but they didn't expect him to move so fast, and he came out after a while.
"Let's go."
"Hmm."
Huo Beiye saw through the window the direction where the patrol car downstairs was leaving, and guessed who the lady went out to see just now.
After taking the gift in, Gu Xiaoxi put on a smile again, but the smile on his face now was somewhat bitter.
If Gu Yucheng hadn't appeared, Gu Xiaoxi felt that she would have been happy and carefree at today's banquet.
After adjusting her mentality, she walked to Huo Beiye's side and noticed the gaze he was looking at just now.
Huo Beiye held Gu Xiaoxi's face and said, "Don't worry about other things tonight." ”
