Chapter 1538: Chapter 1538: Reunion and First Birthday Ritual (Part 1)

Since she is from Sichuan Province, she stayed in Beijing for a day and then went straight back to Sichuan Province.

After receiving the news of Ah Li’s return, Jiang Xue realized that several days had passed. She stayed in Beijing for ten days and then returned to South City. With MD Group gone and no longer under the threat of Jin Hao and his dangerous associates, Jiang Xue felt completely relaxed.

Time flies, and before you know it, Little Reunion’s first birthday had arrived. Because of the tradition of "grabbing toys," Jiang Xue and several family elders had prepared early.

For Little Reunion’s first birthday, the adults in the family placed great importance on it. However, Jiang Xue felt that Little Reunion was still young and didn’t plan to hold a big party, only inviting some close people.

If it weren’t for Little Reunion needing to grab toys, she had planned to just have a reunion dinner at home. Mr. Mu had taken an early leave to come to South City for the event.

Mu Siwu felt a mix of emotions seeing Mr. Mu invited. He didn’t want to see Mr. Mu at all, and if it weren’t for the upcoming toy-grabbing event, he would have planned to return to Xu City.

Jiang Xue knew that the relationship between the two was not good, and forcing them to stay together might result in mutual awkwardness. Therefore, she intentionally arranged for Mr. Mu to stay in the villa that Lu Jintian had given her.

Coincidentally, Lu Jintian and Lu Zheng also came, so the three of them sitting together made for a lively atmosphere. Mu Siwu was relieved to see that Jiang Xue had not arranged for Mr. Mu to stay with them.

To be honest, even though so many years had passed, whenever he saw Mr. Mu, he was reminded of how his mother was slandered and then tragically died in front of him.

October 5th, Little Reunion’s birthday. Early in the morning, Jiang Xue woke Little Reunion, changed him into new clothes, and took him downstairs.

When they went downstairs, all the elders in the family were already present. The family had breakfast, and then began taking pictures: individual shots of Little Reunion, family portraits, and photos of him with each elder.

Mu Qiancheng watched his son being so well-received, watching the elders in the family continuously take photos with Little Reunion, feeling both happy and somewhat lost.

Finally, when the elders finished taking photos, it was the turn of Mu Qiancheng and his spouse. They took several family portraits with Little Reunion, and seeing the late hour, they stopped.

After taking photos, they finally moved to the toy-grabbing session for Little Reunion. Jiang Xue placed the toys in front of Little Reunion: there was a pen, a book, an abacus, and various gadgets. After Jiang Xue placed the items, Mu Qiancheng somehow brought out a dagger, and Lu Jintian placed a golden abacus.

Mr. Mu watched and silently pulled out a gun from his body, placing it in front of Little Reunion as well.

Although Little Reunion was only one year old, his intelligence was not of a one-year-old. Looking at the items placed before him, he immediately recognized which were the valuable ones.

Thus, he glanced around at the adults surrounding him and then grinned.

"Little Reunion, don’t just smile, pick something," Shangguan Wenbin urged as he saw Little Reunion only laughing without picking anything.

Upon hearing this, Little Reunion still did not move, but shifted his gaze from the people to the items in front of him.

These items were undoubtedly good, and were carefully selected by Jiang Xue. Yet, if he only grabbed one, he worried that Jiang Xue might be disappointed.
