《IPWTVC[COMPLETED]》🌸 Chapter 117 - 118 🌸

Although Lu Beichuan had rejected Father Ye's request to come over to the Lu's to visit Ye Zhen, Father Ye thought it would still be acceptable for him and his wife to visit their pregnant daughter.
With this idea in mind, Father Ye brought Mother Ye along when he came knocking at the Lu's home the next day. He had also brought a lot of supplements.
It wouldn't be reasonable to slam the door shut when you saw your in-laws, even if they were unwelcome visitors.
You could only politely welcome them inside.
This was also the first time that Father Ye and Mother Ye had come to the Lu's. Compared to the Ye villa's ostentatious decorations, the Lu villa's decorations showed an understated luxury that manifested in an impressive atmosphere.
"In-laws, please sit. I wanted to wait until Zhenzhen's condition is stable before I told you about her pregnancy."
"That's understandable." Father Ye smiled. "Zhenzhen's health has been poor since she was a child. Please take good care of her for us."
As the Ye's sat down on the sofa and made small talk with Mother Lu, servants came forward and brought cups of tea.
Mother Ye looked at her rosy-cheeked younger daughter that was lazily leaning back on the sofa. Her previous cowering and shy demeanor had been replaced by a confident and extroverted smile and bright eyes. She looked completely different as if she had been replaced by someone else.
Mother Ye couldn't help thinking about her older daughter, who had remained at home in silence for a long time before she could walk out the shadows. She inwardly sighed.
Although it was a shame that Ye Qing hadn't been able to marry Lu Beichuan, it was already too late for regrets. After suffering that one setback, she had been depressed and unable to pull herself together for a long time. Really, she was worse than Ye Zhen right now.
Truly, nothing was ever set in stone. She had previously thought her more outstanding older daughter would live the best life possible. She would have never expected that her unremarkable younger daughter would be living the best life instead.
The way that a person's life would unfold couldn't be predicted.
Ye Zhen smiled at Mother Ye and said, "Mom, what are you thinking about?"

Mother Ye returned to her senses. She glanced at Ye Zhen's belly. "Time passes so quickly. You haven't been married for long, and you're already pregnant."
Mother Lu held Ye Zhen's hand. Smiling, she said, "It's been over a month. It's about time for her to get pregnant. It's our Lu family's good fortune to have a well-behaved and sensible daughter-in-law like Zhenzhen. Beichuan must have done good deeds for eight lifetimes in order to be blessed with meeting Zhenzhen in this lifetime."
Ye Zhen felt embarrassed by the excessive praise.
"Mom..." Ye Zhen quietly said, "Don't say that. I feel so embarrassed."
Mother Lu happily laughed.
Mother Ye's mood was very complicated as she watched this happy and harmonious picture.
It was only in front of Mrs. Lu that she saw Ye Zhen acting happily bashful for the first time.
"I brought some supplements. It's all for Zhenzhen."
"We already have these here. There's no need for you to spend the money. In-laws, don't worry. I'll make sure that Zhenzhen will grow white and plump. No mishaps will happen to her under my watch."
Father Ye smiled. "It's just a bit of our thoughtful intentions as her parents."
After saying this and seeing that Lu Beichuan wasn’t in the living room, Father Ye hesitantly asked, "Ah... Is Beichuan home?"
"Oh, him? He's busy at work. He barely comes home these days. Don't worry about him."
Father Ye gave an embarrassed smile. "It's understandable that he's busy at work. But... my birthday banquet..." He looked at Ye Zhen. It was rather awkward to bring up this matter again after already being refused once. He had already been flaunting his status as Lu Beichuan's father-in-law. It would be really embarrassing if Lu Beichuan didn't attend his birthday celebration.
Thinking of this, Father Ye gritted his teeth and mentioned it again. "Zhenzhen ah, do you think you can make it? It's dad's 50th birthday and our family hasn't gotten together in a while. Dad has invited a lot of his friends. They all know about the news of your pregnancy and they all want to congratulate you in person. They're people that hugged you and kissed you when you were a kid. If you don't go, don't you think it's a bit..."

Lu Beichuan had already agreed to go with her yesterday. Now that Father Ye was mentioning it today, she easily agreed. "Dad, Beichuan and I will be there on your birthday."
Father Ye's eyes brightened."Ah... Beichuan is coming too?"
"Of course, it's your birthday."
Father Ye was overwhelmed with happiness. "Great, excellent, I'll be sure to prepare a good birthday banquet."
Father Ye had chosen the hotel that Ye Zhen and Lu Beichuan had used for their wedding venue for his 50th birthday banquet. Who knows if this was intentional or just a coincidence? He couldn't book the entire hotel like the Lu's, but he could afford to book a conference hall and still have money to spare.
Father Ye was dressed in a suit. Mother Ye, who was standing next to him, was dressed elegantly and looked regal. They were in high spirits as they stood in the doorway and welcomed guests.
Father Ye had invited many people to his birthday banquet including well-known people in the business world. These famous guests weren't even Father Ye's acquaintances, but they couldn't turn down his invitation because he was Lu Beichuan's father-in-law.
Since Lu Beichuan would be attending too, they had to give Father Ye face. Besides, they might even have a chance to chat with Lu Beichuan and exchange contact details with him for potential future collaborations.
As the endless stream of people passed through the hall's entrance. Father Ye repeatedly looked at his watch. With furrowed brows, he hastily asked his wife, "Have you called Zhenzhen yet? Where is she and Beichuan?"
"I already called her an hour ago. She said they're on the way here."
"An hour ago, they should be here by now... Mr. Chen." Father Ye abruptly changed faces. Smiling at the approaching guest, he said, "It's my honor that you were able to take time from your busy schedule to attend..."
Mother Ye glanced at her husband before turning around and entering the venue hall to look for someone.
After looking around, she finally found Ye Qing. Her older daughter was warmly chatting with someone in a nook.
It took Mother Ye many days of talking to straighten her older daughter out. The dejected Ye Qing had finally regained her spirit and pulled herself together. When Ye Qing smiled, she looked as beautiful as a flower. It looked as if she had recovered back to her former self.
"Qingqing, why are you standing here? Mom has been looking for you." Mother Ye turned to look at the woman that Ye Qing had been talking too. The woman was wearing a long red dress. In an instant, she was stunned. "You're..."
Holding the other woman's hand, Ye Qing smiled as she introduced, "Mom, this is my friend, Miss Shen."
Shen Weiyin smiled as she stretched her hand out for a handshake. Natural and graceful, she greeted, "Hi aunty, you can just call me Weiyin."
Mother Ye reflexively shook Shen Weiyin's outstretched hand. After thinking for a long time, she finally smiled and said, "I almost didn't recognize you. Weiyin, you look much more beautiful in person."
The Shen's wasn't an ordinary family. With the backing of her family, Shen Weiyin took to the the entertainment circle like a fish going back to water. All year around, she appeared on screens of all sizes. Her popularity was high enough that her name would be instantly recognized. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she was a household name.
And, she was industrious and kept a low-profile. She was very talented in acting and was liked by many directors. She was a friendly person with many friends in the entertainment circle.
Shen Weiyin smiled. She didn't put on a show of false humility. Instead, she naturally accepted Mother Ye's praise as if she often heard these words.
"I saw you at the doors when I came in. If Qingqing didn't tell me, I would have thought you were Qingqing's older sister."
Mother Ye covered her mouth and smiled. "A famous star's mouth is also so sweet. Today is Qingqing's dad's birthday. Since you came, have a good time here. Go help yourself to a drink. I need to talk with Qingqing. Please excuse us."
Shen Weiyin slightly nodded. "Okay, aunty."
Mother Ye brought Ye Qing closer to her side and glanced at Shen Weiyin as she walked away.

League Of The Void
In ancient times, so long past that even the few immortals still around can barely remember, there existed beings who no one could stand against. Four entities of such might, reality eagerly bent to their very word. But they had a problem common men are not usually around for long enough to experience. The indifference of time. The ever-repeating cycle of events. Live a thousand lifetimes and everything is one big replay. Same events, different faces. Different events, same faces. Like a bad movie, on repeat forever. And yet, time presses on relentlessly, never stopping, never wavering. Pointless. Indifferent. The supreme ones would not accept it any more and so they decided to sleep, waiting for change to come. They separated the void, their home, from the other planes of existence and fell into a mindless state of unconscious bliss. Aeons came and went, until one day, change would finally come. That day is soon to arrive now, the veil concealing the League of the Void about to be lifted.
