Elder Gu and Song Huifen had given their speeches, congratulating the newlywed couple on the new milestone in their lives. Then the party started in full swing. The food had been served and the guests chatted animatedly with each other, while some took their sweet time congratulating He Lianchen and Gu Yuyao on their wedding.

Tang Moyu sat with her daughter, sharing their table with Li Meili and Lu Tianxin. The three women conversed while Little Star busied herself with the delicious dessert in front of her.

"Too bad Qian couldn't come with us. I hope she's feeling okay now." Li Meili sighed as she took another drink from the passing waiter.

"Is she still in the hospital? When is she due anyway?" Lu Tianxin asked curiously. She had met Lin Qianrou a couple of times, considering Xu Wenyang was one of their major investors.

"Next week, but her husband insisted for her to get admitted sooner. Her cramps are getting stronger each day. She might give birth anytime now." Li Meili answered. She visited her friend at the hospital before flying to Beijing.

"Auntie Qian is having a baby?" Little Star lifted her face in surprise. Her cheeks and chin had smudges of chocolate on it that made Li Meili and Lu Tianxin laugh at her. "I wanna see her baby!" She exclaimed.

Tang Moyu pulled a clean napkin and wiped her daughter's face clean. Unlike her son, Little Star still made a mess when eating once in a while.

"Yes, darling. Your Auntie Qian is having a baby. We'll see them as soon as we're home." She told her daughter. With her busy schedule, Tang Moyu wasn't able to see and meet Lin Qianrou for a few weeks now, although she was able to give her a call once in a while to check on her.

"Do you like babies, Little Star?" Lu Tianxin asked the girl. She had brought Luo Luo along with her today, but he was with Ye Xiaozu and Ye Xixi at the moment as she chose to have some girl time with her cousin and Li Meili.

Little Star shook her head.

"No, Auntie Xin. Babies are cute, but they are also noisy when they are crying." She said with all honesty.

How many times had she seen crying babies every time she and her mommy went to the hospital for her and Yu Gege's routine checkup? Little Star had lost the count. They always cry for everything.

Li Meili laughed and held her side from Little Star's honesty. Little Star had made this annoyed face that reminded Li Meili so much of her best friend when they were younger.

"You don't like babies? But what if that baby is your baby sister or brother? What if your mommy has a baby with your Daddy Ji?" Li Meili asked curiously, wanting to know if the little girl was ready to share her mommy's love with others.

Little Star dropped her spoon and looked at her mother with teary eyes. 

"B-but… but… I'm my mommy's baby…wuuuu… I don't want a baby brother or sister." She sobbed, her eyes now rimming with tears, her lips quivered at the thought of sharing her mommy with another baby.

No matter if the baby was her sibling, Little Star didn't think she was ready to give up her title as her Mommy's little baby. While it was true that she and her Yu Gege were twins, she enjoyed the perks of being the youngest. She also loved it when her Mommy called her baby.

The empress gave her best friend a pointed look while Li Meili mouthed a sorry for making Little Star cry. She hadn't thought that the girl would take it seriously.

"Hush, darling. Please don't cry." Tang Moyu took her daughter from her seat and placed Little Star on her lap, drying her tears. "Your Auntie Mei is just joking. You are still my baby, alright? Even if you become a big girl that mommy can't hold you like this, you will always be my baby."

"Really?" Little Star sniffed, her tears continued to roll down her cheeks. "Even if you have a new baby with Daddy Ji?" She probed.

"But we aren't planning to have a baby." 'At least not now', Tang Moyu thought and didn't dare to voice out. She tried to ignore the slight blush on her face as she continued to console her crying daughter.

"You and your brother are my babies. I'm happy and content having you and Baobao right now." She added.

Little Star didn't mind sharing her mommy's love and attention with her twin brother because they were born together and grew up together. However, it would be a different matter if her mommy gave birth to a baby like their Auntie Qian.

"Moyu, your daughter is so beautiful like you. Like mother, like daughter. Would you mind introducing her to me?"

A familiar voice reached Tang Moyu's ears. She froze for a moment before turning her attention to the direction where it came from. She saw Wang Ruoxi together with Feng Tianhua and Xing Yiyue standing a few feet behind her.

Tang Moyu stood up, bringing her daughter in her arms and narrowed her eyes on these unwanted guests. She didn't like how the old woman looked at her daughter with unconcealed disgust.

"Meili, take my daughter with you, will you?" She told her best friend, who didn't waste time taking Little Star from her arms. If there was someone who was able to protect her daughter aside from her, it would be Li Meili.

"Sure. Come and find us when you are done here." Li Meili shot Wang Ruoxi and Feng Tianhua with a glare before leaving with Little Star.

Once they were gone, Lu Tianxin stepped forward and held onto her cousin's arm. They cannot make any disturbance on this happy occasion. Although the Feng family were only invited out of courtesy, they were still the Gu family's guests.
