Evil Husband, Glutton Wife: Buy Miss Piggy, Get Free Little Buns-Chapter 818 - Birthday Banquet (3)

Feng Tianhua occasionally threw glances on Tang Moyu's way discreetly. He hadn't seen her for a long time and felt like he didn't know her anymore. She was far from the woman he fell in love with, who usually gave everyone a cold stare, not caring about them.

Now, as he looked at the empress, he could see the subtle smile on her eyes as she talked with Li Meili and Zhang Jiren, far from the empress he was acquainted with before. Tang Moyu had changed a lot… and for the better.

The surrounding coldness seemed to have been thawed, making her look happier and content. Feng Tianhua felt regret that he had lost this amazing woman because of his own selfishness. Perhaps if he didn't allow himself to get blinded with pride and had cherished her more, he wouldn't lose her.

If he'd never met Xing Yiyue, would Tang Moyu be with him right now?

He shook his head. There was no point in wondering what could never be. It had been years since he parted ways with Xing Yiyue, and the last time he heard, she was in trouble for not being able to pay what she owed to the bank.

Stupid woman, he had given her the alimony she needed, which was more than enough to support herself and start a new life. What had she done with the money, for her to live in such a dire state?

If it was Tang Moyu, that amount would have been doubled or tripled by now, given how good she was at handling her finances. Alas, there was no point comparing the two now as they were completely different from each other.

At that moment, Elder Gu and Gu Yuyao arrived, which immediately took everyone's attention. With her becoming the next head of the Gu family, many were eager to make acquaintances with Gu Yuyao. Since the Gu and Song families were closely related, it wasn't surprising to see them tonight.

Tang Moyu rose from her seat and sauntered towards their esteemed guests. Her long evening dress looked stunning under the bright lights. She kissed Gu Yuyao's cheek before greeting Elder Gu.

"Grandpa, it's been a while." The empress greeted him with a hint of familiarity in her cold voice.

She clearly ignored the other guests that had given her and her children a scrutinizing look on purpose. Tang Moyu wasn't a person to put on a fake smile and politely talk with those she despised. If she could, she'd rather ignore and avoid them than confront them.

Elder Gu was an astute man. He easily figured out what was going on and played along with Tang Moyu. Since he came to adore this little empress, how could he allow anyone to bully her in his presence?

"Ah, Xiao Yu. You've become more beautiful since the last time we met. Has it really been two years already?" Elder Gu smiled at her.

"You are still good at sweet-talking, I see, Grandpa. By the way, Tianyi is expecting to see you tonight. He mentioned a collaboration project Xiao Xing would have with your company." Tang Moyu led the Gu family to where Song Huifen and her children were.

Obviously, she hadn't spared those unwanted guests a single glance and pretended that they didn't exist. They didn't hold any importance in her eyes. There were many ways for her to teach them a lesson for looking down on her and her children, but she wouldn't waste her energy on them. She was annoyed, but this wasn't the right time and place to deal with them.

If they were displeased to know that she had become Feng Tianyi's wife and the mother of the Song family's successors, Tang Moyu didn't give a damn about it anymore as she owed them nothing.

She might be able to ignore their taunting and sharp words against her children, but when it came to Feng Tianyi, who was to say that they would be spared after this? He wasn't as tolerant as the empress. If they dared to touch or hurt their children, they should know the consequences of their actions.

Feng Tianyi might look harmless right now, but his viciousness in crushing his enemies was still the same. He would grasp at their weaknesses until they crumbled on their own. In this world, many people think highly of themselves, but not until the last moment did they only realize that they were the ones who caused their own misfortune.

In reality, ever since Tang Moyu found out she was pregnant, she was no longer interested in dealing with unreasonable people like them. Because they only brought negativity, she didn't want their baby to get involved.

Song Huifen lifted her head as she heard the footsteps coming their way, while she let her grandchildren have some snacks after greeting the guests earlier. She smiled as she saw Tang Moyu leading the Gu family like a proper host.

"Mom, I'm sorry I wasn't able to assist you earlier," Tang Moyu said apologetically before taking a seat next to Song Huifen. As the family's daughter-in-law, she was expected to share some burden of the family.

"It's fine, Moyu. What matters the most is you and the baby. I heard from Tianyi that the symptoms already started," Song Huifen replied, subtly announcing the existence of her third grandchild that was growing in her daughter-in-law's w.o.m.b.

"Ah, Xiao Yu is pregnant?" Elder Gu asked in surprise. "How far along is the child? When are you going to give birth?" He bombarded the empress with questions.

"You seemed more excited than I am. It's my grandchild, in case you are forgetting. Haven't Yao'er and He Lianchen already given you one to dote on?" Song Huifen raised a slender brow at the old man.

"What can I say? I'm excited to see Xiao Yu and Tianyi's baby." Elder Gu laughed merrily while smiling at the two little buns eating their snacks eagerly, ignoring their small talk.

"Are you sure about skipping Tianyi and raising these two as your successors?" Elder Gu asked Song Huifen. The two little buns were still young and would need to face strict discipline and tutelage if they were to succeed Song Huifen in the future. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚ｗ𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m

"It can't be helped. You know many members of the Song family don't perceive my son as an appropriate successor due to his past misdeeds. Tianyi and Moyu also agreed with me."

Song Huifen glanced at her grandchildren who took away their pregnant mother to find their father, leaving the elders behind to talk in private. Gu Yuyao also followed them out to see their other friends who attended the banquet.

The empress dowager looked down at the tea on her cup. Tang Feiyu obviously was good in numbers like his mother. He had the potential to be a great leader in the future, while his twin sister, Tang Feixiu, was able to socialize well, easily associating herself with other children in the same social status as her.

Together, Song Huifen had no doubt that they would be able to manage their family business just fine in the future as long as they would receive proper education and guidance. 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺

The empress had done things to take care of her loved ones, not asking for anything in return. Song Huifen wondered if this was good karma from her past life.

"So Xiao Yu's third child…"

"Obviously, the child is to succeed the Feng family when the right time comes." The empress dowager smiled knowingly. This was something Feng Tianyi decided himself. The Feng family wasn't really bad. The only reason why it was like this today was that his old man insisted on acknowledging his bastard child as the next successor.

If the twins were to join the Song family, the third little bun was expected to bear the Feng name. Once Feng Tianyi gained the things Feng Tianhua and their father snatched from him, he would make sure that the family resources would only fall to his and Moyu's children.

Her son had garnered enough shares to remove his half-brother from his seat as the CEO of Feng Conglomerates, but as to why Feng Tianyi hadn't made a move to claim his rightful place, it was only because he was preoccupied with the issue with the Zhang family.

Ahh, the Zhang family… Song Huifen thought. It seemed they were digging their own graves when they allowed Zhang Jiren to resign from his post and succeeded by Zhang Liang. The Zhang family had wronged Tang Moyu's family, so it wasn't surprising for Song Huifen to hear that her only son had been using their underground networks to trap the Zhang family.

It was too bad; neither the Tang family nor the Zhang family hadn't realized that they raised the people who would cause their downfall.
