Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 804 - 721: The First Birthday Grab

Leng Mochen’s eyes flashed with appreciation, he pulled at the corners of his mouth and smiled: "If you think like this, then I’m relieved! It’s getting late, let’s get ready and head out!"

Some hidden truths, he only conceals from her knowing.

The process isn’t important; the most important is the result, isn’t it?

Li Si readily nodded: "Alright!"

Buding’s first birthday banquet was set to take place in a high-end club, with a plan for 150 tables. However, since most of the invited guests were likely to bring their families, more tables could be added if necessary.

Mr. Leng Sr. had a vast network; besides Leng Mochen’s, Leng Qiankai and Ouyang Yan’s friends, even Leng Qianhan sent invitations to some close acquaintances.

By the time they arrived at the club and entered the banquet hall, it was already bustling with guests, and the atmosphere was lively.

After the emcee’s introductory words warmed up the ambiance, Leng Qiankai and Mr. Leng Sr. subsequently stepped onto the stage.

Mr. Leng Sr. stood on the stage with a radiant face, a man who usually bore a stern face, but today, he rarely showed a smile: "Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to come to celebrate my great-grandson Leng Chengye’s first birthday..."

Long Wu and Xu Er, along with their spouses, were seated below the stage, clapping and cheering.

Then, the family of three made a dazzling entrance.

On stage, Leng Mochen wore a white shirt and black trousers, exuding an exceptional brilliance. Beside him, Li Si was dressed in a custom-made white fringed round-neck top and a red skirt. Her hair was styled, and her face had a faint layer of makeup, looking beautiful and graceful.

Li Si was holding Buding in a little suit in her arms, attracting much attention from the crowd as soon as the family appeared.

The emcee spoke methodically, and after their brief speeches,

Li Si, carrying Buding, walked off the stage escorted by Leng Mochen. Mrs. Leng followed, smiling, as she warmly showed her friends her adorable grandson and daughter-in-law.

People whispered among themselves, saying no wonder Mr. Leng doted on this girl from a small household.

Seeing her today, it became evident that her looks, figure, and temperament were exceptional.

Under the emcee’s direction, it was finally time for the very important segment of the first birthday banquet—Child Ritual!

On the round table covered with a golden yellow tablecloth, there were items like paintings, brushes, knives, swords, abacus, and rulers.

Li Si and Leng Mochen let Buding choose freely, believing his choice could predict his future.

Although it was merely a custom, Li Si still felt a bit of nervousness and anticipation.

She sneaked a glance at Leng Mochen, who appeared unfazed, but noticed he was equally tense, realizing it wasn’t just her feeling this way, which comforted her.

Buding showed no stage fright, caring little about the many guests watching him, and began seriously examining the items placed before him.

He sat there oversized, observing intently, even causing Leng Qiankai beside him to become slightly anxious, wondering if the good grandson would choose the painting he longed for.

If Buding picked it, he would undoubtedly make every effort to nurture him; finally, the younger generation in the family would have someone to pass the torch.

Ouyang Yan’s thoughts kept shifting, desiring the grandson to inherit his grandfather’s legacy, while considering that with Mochen’s vast career, how could he not continue the family business?

At that moment, Buding suddenly reached out and decisively grabbed the small painting!

Leng Qiankai excitedly scooped up his grandson faster than Li Si!

The guests erupted in cheers, Li Si and Leng Mochen exchanged glances, both faces beaming with smiles.

It seemed their son truly knew how to please people!

After all, the child ritual was merely a ceremony, not indicative of the future, everyone understood that. But having fulfilled the expectation, the feeling of exhilaration was natural!

Standing beside Leng Qiankai, Ouyang Yan sighed, noticing that none of his children chose this path, but in his grandson, he finally got his wish. The next segment wasn’t appropriate for a child as young as Buding.

Thus, Li Si and Leng Ning, accompanied by bodyguards, took Buding to a previously prepared resting room.

Once the door was closed, the sound of the banquet hall was immediately isolated.

Li Si smiled and praised her son in her arms: "Buding is amazing!"

She hadn’t anticipated her son would go for the painting.

Buding happily giggled: "Mama! Mama! Down! Down!"

Li Si understood his intention, wanting to explore the new environment in the room.

So she gently placed him on the luxurious carpeted floor, smiling as she crouched down, meeting the little guy at eye level: "Baby, are you hungry?"

She carried his small milk beans and fruit box in her mommy bag.

"No! No!" Buding shook his head, his little hand pulling Li Si’s hand.

Leng Ning teased the little adult: "Shall we walk together holding auntie’s hand?"

"No! No! Mama!" Buding firmly refused to compromise.

Leng Ning pinched his chubby little cheek, "A little mischief!"

Mother and son strolled hand-in-hand around the room, savoring the quiet joy...

In the banquet hall, guests were toasting and conversing, making it lively.

The Leng Family were jubilant, especially Leng Qiankai, surrounded by old friends who chatted passionately about his grandson Buding.

Friends from the art circle said perhaps this child could inherit his legacy someday.

The thought made Leng Qiankai beam with satisfaction, extremely fulfilled!

Meanwhile, outside the club, besides the club’s own security personnel, Leng Mochen’s arranged people were on high alert, fearing any discord or sudden incidents.

At that moment, a taxi quickly drove and came to a screeching halt in front of the club.

Seen was a woman in a white trench coat, hurriedly getting out of the car, glancing at the club’s direction before briskly walking towards it.

The guards at the entrance closely monitored the woman, knowing very few people took cabs to such upscale places; most drove luxury cars, raising suspicion about her intentions.

Who could she be? Could she have malicious intentions?

Soon, before the woman had walked far, a white BMW caught up from behind.

The car had barely come to a stop when a middle-aged woman hurried off, running to catch up with the younger woman in front and firmly grabbing her arm.

"Ye Duowei! You’ve upset your mom like this! What are you still causing?"

Ye Duowei fiercely shook off her arm, stubbornly raising her chin in ridicule: "What did I cause? She’s Li Si’s son’s first birthday banquet; can’t I come to congratulate him? Are you, the proper grandma, following to have a look as well?"

It turned out, the arrivals were Tian Yaruo and Ye Duowei!

Tian Yaruo felt a sharp pain from Ye Duowei’s words, but she couldn’t simply let her go and stir trouble!

"You need to come back with me; your mom is in that condition right now, and you still have the mind to cause trouble for others! Can’t you distinguish what’s urgent or not!"

Yesterday, Tian Yaru inexplicably suffered a setback, her condition suddenly worsened, and the hospital had issued a critical notice.

At this moment, no one knew what might happen, everyone gathered at the hospital fearing sudden changes in Tian Yaru’s condition.

Yet, Ye Duowei still had the notion to sneak out, intending to make things difficult for Li Si’s child, how could that not anger her?
