A bunch of old fathers sit together, and the happiest thing is to share the excellence of their children with friends.

As for Tang Xi'en, who was obediently sitting next to Teng Zhongqian, listening to him introduce herself to his friends, she seemed to have gone through the journey of studying and starting a business for more than ten years.

Thinking about it now, when I was in it, I felt full of hardships, and there were times when I was too desperate to persevere, but in the end I also survived.

She was not born as strong as iron, or even weaker than ordinary girls, but she always had beliefs, and those beliefs supported her to survive countless adversities that ordinary people could not bear, and made her what she is today.
.
In the living room, Teng Zhongqian led Tang Xien to chat and laugh happily with the guests; in the dining room, Teng Minmin and Gu Yi worked hard to prepare the birthday dinner.

Seeing his father so proud of Tang Xi'en, Teng Minmin felt a little uncomfortable.

Gu Yi came out with a pot of freshly cooked mutton, saw his daughter looking absent-mindedly at the living room, and saw Tang Xi'en sitting beside Teng Zhongqian entertaining friends, his heart suddenly burst into flames.

She poked Teng Minmin's arm, and pointed her chin towards the living room: "Mother is here, and you go to chat with your father's friends."

Teng Minmin lowered his eyes, silently took the purple casserole in her hand and put it in the center of the long dining table without saying a word.

Seeing this, Gu Yi immediately pulled her daughter into the kitchen, and taught her a lesson right away: "You need to learn more from that girl! She is only half a year older than you, and she can eat wherever she goes! How much does she earn now? You You still get a dead salary every month! Now that your father and uncle are here, no one dares to look down on you! In the future, these people will disappear, so it’s no wonder that you are not rejected by your husband’s family!"

Teng Minmin didn't say anything, and silently accepted Gu Yi's hatred.

As Gu Yi was talking, he began to talk about himself: "My mother didn't make a name for herself at work back then, and in order to lead you to retire early, that's why your father looked down on me! I don't have a good relationship with you! Why are you still Do you want Song Ci to be like your father in the future? Song Ci's father is the chief prosecutor! But the daughter-in-law is just a grassroots prosecutor. Where do you let your father-in-law's face go?! What do you want your husband's family to do? see you?"

Teng Minmin: "..."

Gu Yi scolded his daughter for a while, relieved himself, and then pushed his daughter out, asking her to go to the living room to join in the fun and feel more present.

Teng Minmin didn't go to the living room in the end, she went back to the room silently and called Song Ci.

Song Ci is also idle at the moment, lying on the sofa in the office and playing with his mobile phone, just happened to swipe a short video from the official account, which is a clip of Tang Xien being interviewed by the official media.

The short video is accompanied by passionate background music, and the small text on the lower left reads "She is a Harvard female student, a legal genius, and a proud son and daughter of the motherland!"

Song Ci watched the short video, and felt a little excited in his heart, thinking that such a Tang Xi'en was really handsome.

He thought of the investigation room at the police station at the beginning of the year, when he went to inform her that she could go home and there was no suspicion. Her eyes were filled with tears and the tip of her nose was flushed. There was no trace of grievance in her eyes that had been rehabilitated after being wronged. Seriously.

He thought that she should have wanted to express something at the beginning, but he didn't know her well, and couldn't interpret her eyes at that time.

Until a few nights ago, when he blocked her way back to the room, she raised her eyes to stare at him, and that look appeared again.

At that moment, he finally understood what she meant by that look—it seemed that she hated him.

Thinking of this, Song Ci smiled helplessly, and watched the short video with Tang Xien again.

After a while, the mobile phone suddenly entered a call. Seeing that it was Teng Minmin's call, he didn't want to answer it at first, but when he thought that it would be more painful not to answer it, he had to bite the bullet and answer it.

"what's up?"

"Song Ci..." Teng Minmin on the other end of the phone said in a low voice, "What are you doing?"

Song Ci scratched his hair irritably: "In the office!"

Teng Minmin said "Oh", there was a brief blank on the other end of the phone, and after a few seconds, she asked, "Do you think my conditions are very poor?"

Song Ci was made even more irritable by her nonsensical question, and asked impatiently, "What do you mean?"

"I'm just a grassroots prosecutor."

"Then?"

"Will you lose your people?"

Song Ci was so tired of her appearance that he lost all patience, and said in a rough voice, "If you commit a crime and leave it in my hands, you will definitely lose me. Who can you lose if you don't commit a crime?"

His words were obviously not to comfort Teng Minmin, and he didn't answer to the point, but if he cared about Teng Minmin, he would know that there must be a reason for Teng Minmin's sudden question after Tang Xi'en returned to the Teng family.

But even if he didn't care, just answering casually like this made Teng Minmin, who had just been reprimanded by Gu Yi, feel very heartwarming.She likes Song Ci, probably because Song Ci doesn't dislike her not being good enough.

That's about it for true love.
.
Teng Minmin hung up the phone, feeling much better.Thinking that Gu Yi's side was almost healed, she went downstairs again.

When they reached the stairs, Tang Xi'en was just about to go upstairs, the two of them looked at each other, and both passed by blankly.

The guests were all seated, and the ten-seat dining table was just right, so Teng Zhongqian went to bring three plastic chairs to add more seats.

Seeing that Teng Minmin came down, Gu Yi hurriedly called her daughter to come and sit down, but she wanted to sit next to Teng Zhongqian.But he didn't want to, Teng Zhongqian waved to her and lowered his voice: "Go and sit over there and let Enen sit here."

When Gu Yi heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded. He was stunned for a few seconds, and was about to curse, but suddenly remembered that there were guests, so he had no choice but to hold back the anger.

With a dark face, she sat with Teng Minmin in the extra seat next to her. Everyone had already sat down, but her hands were still shaking with anger.

Teng Minmin saw it, but there was nothing she could do.

Teng Zhongqian was clearly trying to support Tang Xi'en, everyone could see it, but what could she do?Ask Teng Zhongqian to abandon Tang Xien again?Or simply encourage her parents to divorce, and then she walks with her mother, out of sight and out of sight?

Neither is realistic.

This is like the rainy season during the transition period between spring and summer. It is wet and sticky. Although it makes people feel extremely annoying, it also makes people feel comfortable because it drives away the cold spring.

The Teng family is in such a situation now.

Because Gu Yi was willing to accept Tang Xien, even though it was just a compromise and superficial effort, Teng Zhongqian also liked her more because of this.

Teng Zhongqian gradually began to smile, and even because Tang Xien lived at home, he was often away from home before and returned home on time every day after get off work.

Nowadays, most of the Teng family's family atmosphere is still happy and harmonious, far better than when Tang Xien first appeared, when Teng Zhongqian and his wife were at war, and Gu Yi often broke down and cried bitterly.
