Chapter 435: Chapter 435: The Guy Who Chooses Romance Over Friendship

Feng Dajun was talking with a few people nearby.

He is now Li Wei’s boss, and aside from Qin Yang, everyone present was under his command. Although Qin Yang holds a position slightly higher than Feng Dajun, a local officer has more immediate authority. Therefore, people were much warmer towards Feng Dajun.

Just then, hearing what Sister-in-law Feng was saying, he couldn’t help but turn his head and remind her, "Why mention those things?"

Sister-in-law Feng, now aware of her husband’s displeasure, awkwardly chuckled.

Jiang Hong, wanting to save face for Feng Dajun, gave Sister-in-law Feng a way out, "This fabric is quite nice, thank you, Sister-in-law."

If Sister-in-law Feng had taken this chance to back off, it would have shown tact, especially since even if she criticized others for picking up small blankets and clothes as useless, the man who picked them up was still Feng Dajun’s subordinate and wouldn’t openly show any displeasure.

But Sister-in-law Feng was the type who blossoms with a bit of sunshine. Hearing Jiang Hong compliment her fabric, her spirits lifted again.

"Right? I spent a long time choosing it," she said, then turned to Lin Chuxia, "What did Mr. Qin’s family pick up? I was thinking of calling you to go to the department store that day, but you weren’t home. Your dog was barking fiercely. I mean, we live in the housing complex, all colleagues know each other, there’s really no need to keep a big dog at home. Everyone knows you like dogs, but others might think you’re guarding against someone."

Her words made the faces of several women present somewhat uncomfortable.

Especially the wife of Li Wei’s colleague.

Their status in the housing complex depended on their husbands’ positions.

Both Feng Dajun’s and Mr. Qin’s positions are not low, so this Sister-in-law Feng and Mr. Lin are people she wouldn’t want to offend.

She could only try to minimize her presence, regretting coming along with her husband.

She had hoped to bond with Engineer Feng’s family to make her husband’s future work life smoother.

But she hadn’t expected Engineer Feng’s family to have such a personality.

Jiang Hong, frowning with displeasure – after all, it was her son’s full-month celebration, and visitors were guests, didn’t want to embarrass Sister-in-law Feng, but also couldn’t bear to hear her belittle Lin Chuxia.

Just as he was about to say something, Lin Chuxia spoke up first.

She smiled slightly, "Sister-in-law, I don’t quite understand your words. Yuan Bao is like a family member to us. You said yourself I like dogs; who would I need to guard against with it? Only those with a guilty conscience would feel scared seeing Yuan Bao at my house. Others can’t even if they wanted to."

Jiang Hong nodded in agreement, "Indeed, I really like your Yuan Bao. It’s so smart, I heard that it even helped the police solve a case back in your hometown, and was praised by the local police, right?"

Lin Chuxia generously admitted, "Yes, that happened."

Her Yuan Bao was smart enough to help the police solve cases and naturally wouldn’t bite people indiscriminately.

Seeing Sister-in-law Feng looking embarrassed, Lin Chuxia took out a small box from her pocket.

"This is a gift for your son, see if he likes it."

Jiang Hong opened the small box in front of everyone, and inside were a pair of silver bracelets.

"Oh my, this is too valuable, he’s just a child..."

"It’s specifically for children. You couldn’t wear it even if you wanted to."

Lin Chuxia cut off Jiang Hong’s words and personally put the silver bracelets on the little baby.

Now, Sister-in-law Feng’s expression looked even better.

Even the spouse who brought quails felt incredibly relieved.

Although she was subtly mocked by Sister-in-law Feng earlier, listening to Sister-in-law Feng being openly contradicted now felt much more satisfying.

After chatting for a while, Aunt Li had finished preparing the meal and called everyone to the table.

When everyone had sat down, she called Jiang Hong, "Go accompany everyone for the meal, I’ll take care of the baby."

Jiang Hong refused, "Mom, I’m not hungry yet. You’ve been busy all day, you eat first."

Aunt Li directly pushed her outside, "You young folks have things to talk about, I’m old and digest slowly, not hungry yet. Just go eat, right now all I want is to spend time with my dear grandson, I need to hold him properly."

This remark made everyone present laugh, exchanging blessings and good luck wishes, Aunt Li was beaming with happiness.

Sister-in-law Feng silently watched the scene, then picked up a large chicken leg for herself.

Aunt Li’s cooking skills were good, and she invested heavily in the baby’s full moon celebration, with plenty of chicken, fish, and meat, making everyone quite satisfied.

After giving gifts and eating, the full moon celebration was considered successfully concluded.

Everyone also didn’t stay long; they understood the etiquette of guests taking leave soon after the meal, and started saying goodbye after sitting for a little while.

Lin Chuxia planned to help Jiang Hong and Aunt Li clean up the tables before leaving.

It was still cold in the evening, and it was inconvenient for Jiang Hong to go outside, and Aunt Li, being of advanced age, was also tired from preparing such a large meal.

Qin Yang was waiting for his wife, and as he waited, someone nearby nudged him, then he saw Li Wei carrying his "bomb."

He grinned foolishly and happily.

"Hey, look at my son."

Qin Yang looked at his face with disdain, but was stunned when he looked down.

The little baby in Li Wei’s arms was clean and chubby, staring at him with big eyes.

Those eyes were dark and shiny; he didn’t expect the child’s eyes to be so black.

Perhaps realizing he was being watched, the baby even started smiling, revealing a reddish gumline.

Was this the wrinkled, red and swollen-eyed child?

As his wife had said, it really does get better as they grow.

He looked quite cute.

"Mr. Qin, do you want to hold him?"

Seeing Qin Yang staring intently at the child, Li Wei lifted the baby up a bit.

Qin Yang immediately shook his head, "No, I won’t hold him."

"Come on, hold him. I trust you enough to let you practice with my son. Later, when you have your own child, you won’t be as clueless as I was about holding a baby."

Qin Yang was somewhat tempted by his words.

When Xiaxia has a baby, he wanted to be the first to hold it, but certainly not like Li Wei did outside the delivery room, holding it like a ticking bomb.

"I might not have held one before, but I wouldn’t be as clumsy as you."

As Qin Yang criticized, he reached out to take the baby.

Just to hold him for a moment, to show Li Wei how it’s done.

But just as he reached out, Lin Chuxia called from outside, "Qin Yang, let’s go."

"Alright, let’s go."

Qin Yang immediately withdrew his hand and turned to leave swiftly.

Li Wei, who was halfway through handing over the child, staggered almost throwing the baby out, but luckily managed to catch him quickly and held him tightly.

He glared resentfully at Qin Yang.

While the latter just gave him a cool back view.

Li Wei: "..."

This guy, all charm and no humanity, and he worried so much.

Outside, Lin Chuxia was standing in the yard waiting for him.

The couple said goodbye to the Li Family, and walked out shoulder to shoulder.
