The wine tasting tour continues.

Because the opportunity is rare, An Wuyang does not want to give up halfway — at least he wants to listen to the history of wine once.

As for how much he can remember, he doesn’t have much confidence in his own brain, so after listening, he has to go back and study.

“Mr. Huo?” Many people in the room knew Huo Yunchuan and came over to chat with him about business.

“You guys go ahead and talk.” At this time, An Wuyang smiled understandingly, “I’ll just browse around.”

Huo Yunchuan immediately frowned, instinctively gripping the young man’s wrist tightly, not allowing him to leave. “Wait for me here.”

An Wuyang was speechless, shaking off Huo Yunchuan’s restraint and saying, “I’m just going for a stroll.”

He broke free from Huo Yunchuan’s grasp and walked towards the beautifully arranged venue alone.

Huo Yunchuan turned his head to look at him, his mouth pressed, wanting to pull him back, but in the end, he restrained himself and turned back to deal with his business partners.

After walking a distance, the young man turned his head to make sure the man didn’t follow, feeling relieved.

One year.

A whole year, finally an opportunity to act alone!

“Ah…” An Wuyang sighed deeply with his hands in his pockets.

Seeing that the sunlight in the garden was still gentle, he walked leisurely.

Following behind An Wuyang, Lan Weiwei greeted him, “Mr. An?”

This address was quite unfamiliar to An Wuyang.

But hearing a voice, he still turned his head and smiled, “Miss, are you calling me?”

Lan Weiwei was taken aback because no one had ever called her Miss before, and this ordinary young man married to Huo Yunchuan was the first…

“Yes.” Lan Weiwei glanced at An Wuyang up and down and said, “You look just like in the photos.”

The news about the young master of the Huo family turning one month old was all over the place, and she and her socialite friends had all seen it.

However, the focus of this news was obviously not the just-turned-one-month-old young master, but the sudden revelation of Huo Yunchuan’s same-sex partner.

A nineteen-year-old youth, of humble origin and even a poor student who couldn’t even pass a single subject.

Lan Weiwei’s group of socialite sisters all felt sorry for their little sister. How could this ordinary poor student compare to Lan Weiwei?

“Huh? Have you seen my news?” An Wuyang left Huo Yunchuan’s side, his face wearing an elegant smile, coupled with his handsome appearance, making him very approachable.

“Yes, I have.” Lan Weiwei bit her lip. She was actually surprised to meet Huo Yunchuan at this wine tasting event today.

She had originally wanted to go up and say hello, but it seemed like the only thing on his mind was his same-sex partner.

“Oh.” An Wuyang nodded casually, especially since the other person was a pretty young lady, “The weather is really nice today, perfect for a stroll.”

An Wuyang smiled at Lan Weiwei with the intention of avoiding suspicion and continued walking forward.

Nonsense, if the man she was married to saw her chatting and laughing with a young and pretty lady, he would definitely go crazy.

An Wuyang now understood Huo Yunchuan’s character very well and knew how to handle him.

After wandering around for a while, he found a staff member and asked for the location of the restroom, then went to the restroom.

When An Wuyang returned to the venue, he found that Huo Yunchuan was nowhere to be seen…

He immediately patted his pockets, finding nothing inside, and immediately thought that Huo Yunchuan might be looking for him.

“…” How embarrassing.

An Wuyang blushed shyly, looked around, and then found a staff member, saying to him, “I’m sorry, could I borrow your phone to make a call?”

The staff member nodded, immediately taking out the phone and handing it to An Wuyang.

However, when An Wuyang took the phone and started dialing the number, he realized that he couldn’t remember the rest!

Feeling foolish, he once again asked the staff member for help, “Brother, could you please help me find Huo Yunchuan?”

The staff member nodded dazedly, “Sure.”

He was also someone who followed the news and naturally recognized this newly emerged son-in-law of the prestigious Huo family.

The uniformed guy thought to himself, so this is the personality of Huo’s Family son-in-law…

So, the uniformed guy picked up the walkie-talkie and announced on the public channel to all the staff in the mansion, “Please notify Mr. Huo if you see him, his wife is waiting for him in Zone A of the venue, please notify Mr. Huo if you see him, his wife is waiting for him in Zone A, over.”

Indeed, Huo Yunchuan had gone out to look for An Wuyang.

Hearing the directions from the staff member, he quickly walked back to Zone A and saw An Wuyang standing obediently next to the uniformed guy, his tense face finally relaxing.

But he was still very angry.

He had run so far in the blink of an eye, what if something dangerous had happened?

“Yunchuan…” When they were still far apart, An Wuyang raised his hands as if he wanted to be hugged.

Seeing this scene, Huo Yunchuan, instead of getting angry, felt like kneeling down to his little darling.

“Uh, it’s okay.” The older man quickly walked over, hugged the frightened little darling, and after careful consideration, he lightly said, “I’ll buy you a phone watch.”

Wear it next time you go out.

And install a tracker.

This wasn’t about control, it was about preventing getting lost.

An Wuyang smirked and obediently nodded in the Huo Yunchuan’s arms, “Okay.”

Miss Lan Weiwei, who was watching from a distance, couldn’t believe her eyes. Was this the same cold and tough Huo family leader she knew?

An Wuyang also noticed the lady in the white dress in the distance and nudged Huo Yunchuan’s shoulder, “Look back there, do you recognize that lady?”

He always felt like she wouldn’t just approach him for no reason, either she knew Huo Yunchuan or she was an acquaintance.

At Huo Yunchuan’s words, he released the young man in his arms and glanced back.

Lan Weiwei’s figure came into his sight, but it only made him feel somewhat familiar, after all, it had been a year, “Oh, she might be someone I’ve met before.”

Specific names, Huo Yunchuan doesn’t remember, nor does he care.

However, he turned his head to look at his companion, “Did she approach you?”

An Wuyang waved his hand, “No, just met on the lawn. She greeted me, saying I look like in the photos.” He chuckled, “Probably saw the news reports and was impressed by my looks.”

Huo Yunchuan continued to stare incredulously at the young man beside him, because this was the first time the little angel confidently boasted about himself.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” An Wuyang felt a bit embarrassed, “Let’s go, continue teaching me about wine.”

“Okay.” Huo Yunchuan followed, his left finger being held by the young man in front.

The next day was another day for the little angel to dominate the hot searches and the UC homepage!

However, he didn’t have time to read the news because the family had hired a photography team to take pictures of Dun Dun.

Originally scheduled to be photographed at the full moon, but that time was too busy, so today was scheduled.

An Wuyang got up early in the morning, took out the clothes he had prepared for Dun Dun a few days ago, and, in accordance with the photographer’s requests, was responsible for changing Dun Dun’s clothes.

“Dun Dun, be good, take photos with daddy, okay?” The melodious voice of the young man softened as he coaxed his son while helping him change clothes.

After the full moon, Dun Dun had grown chubby, with eyes like black grapes, especially bright and spirited.

He puckered his chubby little mouth towards his little daddy, as if wanting to speak.

But in reality, he looked silly, drooling.

“Oh dear, Huo Yunchuan, your son is drooling again.” An Wuyang said, “Quick, give me a tissue.”

Recently being called by his full name, Huo silently handed a tissue to the little angel.

“Dun Dun,” the young boy took the tissue from his husband’s hand and carefully wiped the drool from his son’s mouth, “You have a little double chin.”

Dun Dun grinned.

An Wuyang chuckled and teased him again, “Little double chin…”

He was really chubby! So adorable!

Huo Yunchuan sat beside them, watching the father and son laugh and play.

Silent as ever, like a parent taking two children to the park, as long as they didn’t cross the line, he didn’t interfere.

His parents walked in and saw the scene, feeling a slight concern.

Their son had always been reserved since childhood. Now that he was married and had a child, although there was some change, he was still reserved.

“Dad, Mom.” Huo Yunchuan looked up and greeted his parents.

They had come to take family photos with Dun Dun.

“Dad, Mom! Come over and see, Dun Dun is smiling!” An Wuyang happily called out to his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

“Ah, my little baby, Grandma is here!” Zhang Ruoqi heard the call and didn’t even spare a glance at her son, who was as reserved as the universe, heading straight for her son-in-law.

“Hehe.” Huo Xiao smiled and watched Dun Dun, instructing his only son, “Go check on your grandfather. You’ve been changing clothes for so long, make sure everything’s alright.”

Huo Yunchuan: “Hmm.”

He glanced at his wife and son before getting up and walking out.

Zhang Ruoqi chuckled while holding Dun Dun, watching the closed door, and helplessly said to her son-in-law, “Is Yunchuan just a little too reserved?”

An Wuyang adjusted Dun Dun’s hat and vigorously shook his head at the words, “Mmm mmm mmm.” Huo Yunchuan isn’t reserved!

Huo Yunchuan is full of sweet talk and jokes!

Mother-in-law: “???”

Mother-in-law said, “Are we talking about Yunchuan?”

Little angel: “We’re talking about Yunchuan.”

Any problem with that?

Grandpa glanced at his beloved wife and said kindly, “Maybe he’s just not reserved in front of Yang Yang.”

The mother-in-law nodded knowingly, “I see.”

Taking photos took up most of the day.

Among them, the most photos were taken of Dun Dun and An Wuyang because the elders in the family loved seeing them in photos!

The mother-in-law said they should keep more photos of these two kids at home!

Two kids!

The family photo was also posted online, receiving heaps of praise on Grandma’s Weibo.

Lately, various news about the Huo family seemed dedicated to unveiling the mysterious veil of their wealthy facade, repeatedly making headlines.

Netizens discussed fervently, with any news related to the Huo family garnering high attention:

“Has anyone noticed that since the Huo family married a son-in-law from an ordinary family, they’ve become more down-to-earth!”

“Yes! I don’t know why, but I’m starting to like the Huo family!”

“Liking them + ID numbers!”

“Yeah, they seem very approachable. Lady Huo is simply a gentle and good mother-in-law. I really want to be her daughter-in-law, or even granddaughter-in-law!”

“Envious of Sweet An, his mother-in-law is simply an angel…”

“That’s because Sweet An himself is an angel, that’s why he encountered an angelic mother-in-law. It’s no wonder they’re so happily married!”

“This harmonious life in a wealthy family is completely different from what I imagined. Turns out novels are all lies.”

“Wait a minute! Sweet An has a younger brother, right? The ladies behind him still have a chance!”

“His maternal family is so low-key, seems like there’s not much news about them…”

The couple from the An family, seeing their second son’s schedule and activities in the news, along with what the Huo family had been up to and where their affluent partners had been, felt a sense of helplessness.

They were the maternal family of the wealthy son-in-law, but it wasn’t like what the public imagined, soaring to the sky with their son.

In reality, life wasn’t much different from before, with minimal changes.

A few days after attending their grandson’s full moon banquet, they came to work at the company, and everyone in the company knew that their son was married to the CEO.

Suddenly, everyone in the company became polite and flattering towards them, both openly and subtly, and even their superiors dared not interfere too much.

They all believed that the CEO would soon promote their in-laws.

Although a few days had passed now and there hadn’t been any movement from above yet, it was only a matter of time.

Only the An couple knew that their son’s partner, the big CEO, wasn’t as attentive to them as they had imagined.

Forget about promotions, not even a single phone call came to check in after the full moon banquet.

As for the betrothal gifts, they didn’t want to bring it up either.

But having raised such a big son, sending him over for nothing, and even bearing a child for the Huo family, surely they deserved some recognition?

An Cheng thought so, becoming more puzzled as he thought, “Wife, do you think our second son said something to him? How could it be…”

And now even the second son was indifferent to their family, just as before when he wasn’t married, which wasn’t much to begin with.

But seeing their own son living so happily in a wealthy family every day in the news, while he, as a father, diligently worked at his son-in-law’s company and had to deal with envious glances around him, it really weighed heavily on his heart.

“Who knows,” Ding Wei sighed and turned to look at the third child, who had finished his homework and was watching TV, “Wuji, give your brother a call.”

An Wuji stared at the TV without turning his head, “I won’t call.”

He had just eavesdropped on his parents’ conversation.

“Why not?” Ding Wei lowered her voice.

An Cheng squeezed his wife’s hand, “Forget it, forget it. If the child doesn’t want to call, don’t force him. I’ll call him another day.”

Seeing how frequently the second son had been in the news these past few days, it was clear he was busy.

It wouldn’t be polite to keep calling home.

The recently returned from the United States, An Wuyu, also had the same idea.

She often saw her brother appearing in domestic news and was reminded by others to contact her brother and not to estrange herself from her married brother.

But she was afraid of being misunderstood by her brother, of opportunism and such.

Just as An Wuyu was hesitating whether to contact her brother, she received a WeChat message from Ye Jiao Jiao, her classmate who had come abroad with her.

Ye Jiao Jiao: “!!! You didn’t tell me!”

An Wuyu immediately knew that her friend had found out.

She perked up and sent a smiling emoji in response.

Ye Jiao Jiao: “The only aunt of the young master of the Huo family is my best friend! Oh my god! I’m going to faint, ah ah ah, that’s the Huo family! A real wealthy family!”

An Wuyu: “Yes, I took leave to come back to attend Dun Dun’s full moon banquet. I still have Dun Dun’s photos on my phone.”

Ye Jiao Jiao: “Oh my god, his name is Dun Dun? Such a cute name! Oh my god, you have to take me to visit the Huo family during winter break!”

An Wuyu felt a bit embarrassed, but she wouldn’t show it, that would be too embarrassing.

“We’ll see when the time comes.” In fact, she wasn’t planning to go back during the winter break because the plane tickets were too expensive. She had spent quite a bit of money recently and needed to reflect on her spending.

Ye Jiao Jiao: “You’re really the same An Wuyu I know. So calm even in situations like this. If I were you, I would have gone crazy already, you know?”

An Wuyu: “If you were me, you might really go crazy, haha.”

After chatting with her best friend, An Wuyu gathered courage and left a message for her brother who was far away in the country, “Wuyang, I’ve been in the US for several days now. How have you and Dun Dun been recently? Are you both okay?”

Actually, the day she flew to the US, An Wuyang had sent her a message wishing her all the best, but it was very brief.

Upon receiving her sister’s message this time, An Wuyang immediately replied, “Sis, Dun Dun and I are doing well. We just finished taking his full moon photos yesterday. Also, I’ve been studying English lately, preparing to return to campus. [Photos][Photos][Photos] Let’s all work hard!”

An Wuyu was delighted to receive the response and replied, “You want to learn English? I can teach you, my English is pretty good.”

But An Wuyang’s response made her question life: “No need, sis. You speak American English, but I’m learning Oxford English with Yunchuan now. They’re different.”

An Wuyu: “…”
