"Your money is my money, and of course, my money is your money. There's no question of liking or disliking it," Bai Le said matter-of-factly.
Xi Yan's dark eyes were fixed on Bai Le, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
"You're mine too."
Bai Le blushed, somewhat taken aback by his bluntness, and quickly changed the subject. "By the way, my parents and your grandfather have arranged for us to have dinner together tonight."
Where?
Bai Le gave the location, Xi Yan, telling him to go change his clothes first. Bai Le casually picked out a casual T-shirt, put it on, and left, but he didn't forget to dress Mu Mu up carefully.
Looking at the jumpsuit Xi Yan had found for him, she couldn't help but curl her lip in disgust. "You're dressing your son in this? Do you want him to go out and do the Yangko dance?"
Who bought these bright red and green items?
Xi Yan teased Mu Mu, who was lying on the bed, and replied, "Your mother."
Bai Le immediately fell silent.
"Hmm... it doesn't look bad from this perspective. Brightly colored clothes are nice for kids."
So he actually dressed Mu Mu in that red and green jumpsuit, and luckily Mu Mu had fair skin, so it actually looked quite good on her.
"It's a rare opportunity, let Mu Mu wear it, the elders will be happy to see it."
Xi Yan nodded, offering no objection.
Bai Le muttered under his breath, "Besides, Mu Mu is still young and can't remember what clothes he's wearing. I think he actually likes them quite a bit."
When the three arrived at the hotel, they found that they were the first to arrive; the rest of the people had not yet arrived.
Xi Yan, holding a child in one arm, was tall and slender with handsome and aloof features, making him quite eye-catching as he entered the hall.
Bai Le, watching from behind, was itching to take a picture, so he couldn't resist reaching out and snapping one.
In the photo, Mu Mu is leaning on Xi Yan's shoulder. He doesn't realize that it's a camera taking pictures; he just instinctively smiles at his father.
So he looked down and posted the photo in the group chat.
"@Everyone, my son, come out and praise him to me."
"Wow, is that Mu Mu? How did she grow so big?"
"Children grow up fast, but Lele, your son really looks like his father. Look at his eyes, they're like they were made from the same mold."
Bai Le retorted, "Nonsense! My son's big eyes definitely look like mine, and how can you tell who he looks like at such a young age?"
"How can you not tell? He's already a year old. He should be learning to walk by now. You all spoil him rotten."
"Lele already had a son, how come I didn't know?"
Seeing Bai Le being suppressed, Wu Hua quickly stepped in to help him, saying, "Mu Mu was born prematurely, so others are happy to pamper him."
Bai Le gritted his teeth in anger, then looked up at Mu Mu and saw his son giving him a big, carefree smile. He had seen Xi Yan's few childhood photos, and the more he looked, the more he resembled him.
"If you're really so unhappy about it, just have another one. What if the next one is just like you?"
Bai Le: "..."
The topic quickly shifted to Mu Mu's first birthday party in the group chat. Some people couldn't attend, which reminded Bai Le.
"Has anyone not sent a red envelope to my son?"
Xiaozhouzi immediately replied, "Nobody's here."
Bai Le sneered as he typed on the keyboard, "Alright, we have Xiaozhouzi, who else is there?"
The group chat suddenly became much quieter, and no one spoke anymore.
Bai Le: "@Everyone, he calls himself a godfather so fluently all the time, but where is he when it comes to giving money?!"
He was typing intently with his head down when suddenly his nose bumped into a warm, firm chest.
He looked up and saw Xi Yan reach out and pull him close. "Be careful."
It turned out that a food delivery truck had passed by him and nearly knocked him down.
After the car drove away, Xi Yan released him and said, "Don't use your phone while walking."
As he spoke, his gaze inadvertently swept across his phone screen and he saw their chat history.
"Godfathers?" He raised an eyebrow slightly and asked in a deep voice.
Bai Le quickly replied, "It was just a casual remark, I just wanted to get a red envelope."
Xi Yan withdrew his gaze, and a slight smile appeared on his lips as he looked at something.
"Have another one?"
Bai Le: "..."
Author's Note: Thank you all for your support! Comments really do encourage authors. I've seen every single one of your IDs, and I can even remember some, so I sometimes think of people who haven't appeared in a while, knowing they've probably abandoned the story. I'm so grateful to every one of you who's kept me company this far. bows
I sacrificed so much to write this post [doge emoji]. For example, my Baidu browsing history was full of things like "how many months pregnant are you going to show?" and "Will drinking alcohol affect the fetus?" Most importantly, my mom and I share the same ID! She can see my browsing history, which I forgot to delete. I thought she didn't use that phone often, but then I told her that my mom had been acting strangely towards me those days, subtly asking if I had a boyfriend, telling me not to mess around, and to tell my family if anything was wrong. It took a long time of explanation before she reluctantly believed me after I wrote this. Thank you to all the little angels who voted for me or watered my plants between 2020-03-12 22:56:08 and 2020-03-13 22:14:04!
Thank you to the little angels who threw the landmines: T 2; Jiang Heng 1;

Chapter 44
Bai Le was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then realized what he meant and stammered, "He... they're talking nonsense."
He hurriedly explained while trying to drag Xi Yan forward. Xi Yan smiled, changed his posture to hold Mu Mu, and then let him push him forward.
When they arrived at the private room, none of the others had arrived yet. Bai Le asked the waiter to bring a high chair for the children, and then sat down with Mu Mu in his arms.
