The Second Part “East Earth Sugar” Chapter 315

ut since she was back, she would do her best to prevent the tragedy from happening.She now dared not tell her mother directly about Wenlan and her father's relationship. She didn't know how her mother...Han Li returned to the southwest with a very clear purpose: to take Han Zhao Yi back to pay respects to their parents. Due to Zhao Tingxing's appearance, there was an impromptu addition to the itinerary – to go to the mountains to see his grandmother.

After visiting nature, I went straight back to Beijing.

Zhao Tingxing couldn't leave immediately because he had been assigned work at headquarters, so he stayed busy until Han Zhaoyi's birthday before returning to Beijing.

This was the first time he had ever celebrated Han Zhaoyi's birthday. He went all out, as if to tell everyone that he was a father now and had an adorable son. It was also a way to make up for all the birthdays he had missed over the years.

He liked lively gatherings, and Han Zhao Yi followed suit, also enjoying the excitement. The father and son sent invitations to everyone they could think of on the first night.

Han Li had no idea. Every year, his birthday was just about buying a cake and having a meal with his parents. By the time he found out, it was too late. His son and father had already sent out invitations and even got employees in Beijing to set up the hotel in advance.

Han Zhaoyi invited several good friends he played with at kindergarten, and finally said: "Zhao Tingxing, can you also invite Xiao'erduo"

"Sure, but they're in Senzhou. I'm not sure if they can come. I'll give them a call." She then made a serious phone call to Lu Kuo, but the result was obvious. After feigning birthday wishes, Lu Kuo firmly refused, saying he couldn't make it.

Han Zhao's heart sank.

This did remind Zhao Tingxing, inviting the Gu Ruandong couple to participate, of course, there was a desire to show off in his heart. After all, Gu Ruandong had known Han Chaoyi earlier than him and had ridiculed him a lot.

Han Li didn't invite anyone else, it was still just people from the Yi family plus Cheng Shao Fan. Cheng Shao Fan would send birthday gifts every year without fail.

On Han Zhaoyi's birthday, Zhao Tingxing was afraid Gu Ruandong wouldn't attend. Of course, that turned out to be true. With Gu Ruandong's personality, it was impossible for him to attend someone else's birthday party. So, Zhao Tingxing came to Gu's company in the afternoon to block him, coincidentally, Lu Yaoyao was there too.

Lu Yaoyao heard this and realized she also loved lively events. She had been feeling a bit bored staying in the capital city lately, so she immediately agreed, “Sure, a little one’s birthday party I love those the most! I have to go.” Since she was going, Gu Ruandong, even if he wasn't enthusiastic about it, would have to accompany her.

Zhao Tingxing's subordinates do things with his style. The birthday party was themed around Ultraman, which is He Zhaoyi's favorite, appearing both flamboyant and childlike in its fun.

Han Zhaoyi is the star of today, Han Li and Zhao Tingxing as supporting roles, always by his side, at a glance, they truly resemble a family of three.

Three people stood on the stage preparing to cut the cake. Zhao Tingxing first gave a speech thanking everyone present for coming to Han Zhaoyi's birthday party.

A small birthday, he made it so grand. Those who didn't understand thought he was over the top, but those who did knew his sincerity.

As he said, "I was an abandoned child without a home from a young age. Even though the old woman adopted me, that home wasn't complete. The arrival of Han Zhao Yi made me gradually feel a sense of family and fulfillment. For several years past, I was absent from every day of their mother-son life, this regret, I hope that in every year, every day from now on, I can make up for it."

Most of the people present were friends he had invited, and they all knew his past character. Now that he was saying these things, it felt strange but also somehow reasonable to them.

To their surprise, Zhao Tingxing's next words were like when he publicly praised Han Li at the grand opening ceremony last time. This time, instead of as a partner, he directly confessed his love to his beloved woman in public, "Han Li, today's birthday party is for Han Zhaoyi and also for you. That day I asked you what you wanted as a gift, and you didn't answer. I thought about it for a long time and bought this bracelet."

He then reached into his suit pocket and pulled out a diamond bracelet. The chain was made of gold-colored wheat-shaped diamonds, with a clear, colorless diamond in the center that glittered brilliantly and stood out the most.

"This wheat ear bracelet has two layers of meaning. The first is to represent harvest, we have children who are connected by blood. The second is the differently colored diamond in the middle, I hope you can be like it, break through the shackles, and bravely be yourself, your most unique self."

Only the three of them were on stage. While he spoke, he ignored everyone else and kept his eyes fixed on Han Li throughout.

Helen's heart was captured piece by piece, believing that he truly understood her, so she couldn't help but be moved.

He reached out and took her hand, helping her put on the bracelet. When it was fastened, he didn't let go right away, instead continuing, "Right now, I want to put a ring on your finger more than anything. I believe that one day, I will."

It was his confident speech again, the people on stage applauded and cheered him on. Suddenly, he scooped her into his arms, whispering in a voice only she could hear: "Luli, I love you."

The protagonist, young Han Zhaoyi, inexplicably became a supporting character, but it didn't affect his silly happiness. He finally saw his parents holding each other.

The whole birthday party was in high spirits. When it came to cutting the cake, everyone sang "Happy Birthday" and Han Zhaoyi was about to make a wish, but Zhao Tingxing jumped in and said, “Can I maybe make a wish too”

Flaunting and stealing the spotlight from her son, this birthday wasn't for Han Zhaoyi at all, it was clearly her own celebration.

The father and son each closed their eyes and made a wish. As they blew out the candles, Han Zhaoyi asked him, "What did you wish for"

Zhao Tingxing: "Can you help me fulfill the wish I made"

Han Zhao'yi nodded dazedly.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Zhao Tingxing said: "My wish is that from now on, you call me Dad."

He has thick skin and doesn't feel embarrassed about anything.

The people from Yi's family and Cheng Shao Fan in the audience all looked down on him a little. He really made being a father look easy.

Lu YaoYao was originally touched by Han Li's confession. Seeing him fight with the child over birthday wishes, he was still that domineering person, unchanged at all.

As everyone waited to see Han Zhao Yi's reaction, a crisp "Dad" had already come out of his mouth.

Zhao Tingxing was stunned at first, not expecting him to call out so readily. But after hearing it, it didn't seem like anything special, nor did he feel the elation he had imagined. Calling him Zhao Tingxing wasn't much different. So to speak, affection doesn't depend on how someone is addressed.

He didn't know how foolish his smile was at this moment.

After coming down from the stage, Han Zhaoyi went to play with his friends, while Han Li went to entertain the elders of the Yi family. Although the two elders were not very fond of Zhao Tingxing, they found his recent performance acceptable, so they did not say much more.

When talking to Han Li, the two elders were absent-minded and kept glancing at Gu Ruandong who was not far away. They asked Han Li, "Is that his wife"

Han Li nodded in agreement.

"Gu Ruandong seems to be quite good to his wife," the old man observed silently all night. He saw that Gu Ruandong stayed by his wife's side the whole time, handing her water and fruit now and then, as if he was afraid someone would bump into her. He kept a close eye on her, carefully guarding her from harm.changed to a homestay shoot at the request of Lu Yaoyao.
