Whenever a newborn was born in the Empire, the parents were entitled to a month of paternity leave, the purpose of which is to encourage parents to spend more time with their children and build a stronger bond with them.
Even Luo Lingxing, who was currently a student, and Han Junzhan, who was currently a soldier, were both entitled to this policy.
So the two new fathers stayed at home for a whole month, until the babies’ one-month celebration.
The full moon celebration for Luo Lingxing and Han Junzhan’s child was bound to be a big event. Putting aside the prestige of the Han and Luo families, many people were eager to get an invitation. Luo Lingxing and Han Junzhan themselves alone were enough to attract many wealthy and influential guests. In fact, many guests actively sought out invitations, because how could they possibly miss such an opportunity to get closer to the Han and Luo families?
These two children were the apple of the eye of the Han and Luo families.
Many celebrities in the entertainment industry also tried to use various connections to get into the banquet, especially some less famous celebrities who had worked with Luo Lingxing. They wanted to befriend Luo Lingxing and get an invitation. Unfortunately, Luo Lingxing stayed at home with his two children, and those people had no chance to contact him. In the end, they could only watch those who had received invitations with resentment.
The baby’s one month celebration was coming soon. It was held at the Han family’s old house, not at Han Junzhan and Luo Lingxing’s little nest. After all, as public figures, their residences were always kept secret, and this time it was impossible for them to be exposed to the public. Otherwise, how could they have any more peaceful days in the future?
Of course, there was another reason why we didn’t hold the full moon celebration in our little nest, which was that the whole nest was almost filled with full moon gifts from fans for the two babies.
About a week ago, he started receiving a large number of gifts almost every day. The total amount was quite considerable. Even though Luo Lingxing had already advised his fans on Weibo that as long as the sentiment was there, gifts were not necessary, his fans still continued to send gifts with great enthusiasm.
These were ultimately for the two babies, and Luo Lingxing could only accept the fans’ kind gesture, deciding to repay them properly in the future when the opportunity presented itself.
This was the first time Luo Lingxing had brought the babies to the Han family’s ancestral home.
Although the Han family’s ancestral home had always been on the Emperor Star, very few people actually lived there. Even Old Master Han preferred to live on Flowing Cloud Star, and the others all had their own jobs and families.
The Han family’s ancestral home was more like a small town than a residence, as it covered a vast area and had everything one could possibly need, making it dazzling to behold.
“Before we came of age, everyone lived here.” Han Junzhan held Xiao Xiaojun and showed Luo Lingxing around the ancestral home, telling him some interesting stories about his time living here.
Before Grandpa Han retired from the military and before Han Junzhan came of age, everyone lived in the ancestral home, and the whole family was very lively.
However, as the children grew up and started their own jobs and families, they spent more time living away from home for convenience. Although they would occasionally come back to live with them, they spent most of their time away from home. After Mr. Han retired, the house became even more deserted.
So, on a whim, he decided to move out of the desolate ancestral home. Otherwise, it would be too lonely for such a large house to only have a few people living there. Moreover, it would be difficult to meet up with old friends while living there. Therefore, Grandpa Han decided to move to Flowing Cloud Star, which was more suitable for the elderly. Coincidentally, his old rival, Old Man Luo, was also there.
As a result, the ancestral home became even more deserted, and people would only come back together during major holidays or important events such as the Chinese New Year. This time, the full moon celebration for the two babies was held at the ancestral home.
Han Junzhan took Luo Lingxing and the two babies back to his room. The bedroom alone was over 100 square meters, with a separate bathroom, and was fully equipped with a sofa, TV, and other amenities, making it look like a small apartment.
As expected of someone who was rich.
“The banquet won’t start until tonight, so you and the babies should rest for a while,” Han Junzhan said to Luo Lingxing.
As the master, Han Junzhan was bound to go out and do chores, but the other master couldn’t bear to see him get tired, so he let him stay here and rest with the baby.
Starting in the afternoon, guests began to arrive one after another. If there were any media personnel present, they would be surprised to find that almost all the guests were high-ranking officials of the empire, people who were rarely seen in normal times. Any one of them could make the ground tremble when they stomped their feet. Moreover, a large number of cars were gathered outside the Han family’s ancestral home, and any one of them was an enviable limited-edition luxury car. No wonder those celebrities wanted to get an invitation to the event. If they could be noticed by anyone here, their future careers would be smoother and longer.
The full moon celebration was held in the central garden of the ancestral home, which was filled with flowers and had a very beautiful and pleasant environment. Even at night, it was brightly lit, so there was no need to worry about people not being able to see their surroundings.
As the younger generation, Han Junzhan and Han Junyu naturally greeted the guests outside. Old Master Han and Old Master Luo had already been sitting in the garden. In fact, they wanted to see their great-grandchildren more, but when they thought about the fact that this was the great-grandchildren’s full moon celebration, they, as great-grandfathers, had to support their two great-grandchildren, so they suppressed their excitement.
“Isn’t this General Lin Zhong? It’s a pleasure to meet you.” A man in formal attire, smiling like a Maitreya Buddha, greeted another man in a crisp military uniform with a serious expression.
“Speaker Zhou, it’s a pleasure to meet you,” Lin Zhong replied casually.
“Oh my, isn’t this the chairman of Huazhong Group?” “I’ve heard so much about you.
“Chairman Lin, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
“Chairman Zhao, you’re here too. It’s an honor to meet you.”
“Chairman Zhang, you flatter me.”
Such scornful remarks continued to ring out after entering the Han residence gate. Almost everyone who saw someone nearby couldn’t help but make a few sarcastic comments.
Those who were able to come here are all top elites in their respective fields. Normally, no matter what occasion they were in, they were the objects of flattery and fawning. However, after coming here today, they realized that any one of them is on par with them, or even of higher status. They all felt that they had broadened their horizons and gained new knowledge. The ancients were right. “There are heavens beyond heavens and people beyond people.”
However, when they entered the central garden and saw the guests, they couldn’t help but be surprised. It could be said that many big shots who would never even attend a banquet normally came here, making those who were used to being flattered unable to resist wanting to curry favor with others.
“This is incredible! I originally thought it would just be a regular full moon celebration, but now look, people from almost every field are here, even bigwigs from the political world. These two little darlings really have a lot of influence,” someone whispered to their companion.
“That’s right. But it’s good this way. It’s not easy to see a few people normally, so this is a good opportunity for us to communicate.”
As they spoke, the two walked up to someone they usually wanted to see but could never get to see and started trying to build a relationship with them.
Actually, if you thought about it carefully, it was not hard to guess that these people would come. After all, when Grandpa Han was young, he was the Grand Marshal of the military. It could be said that most of the people in the military now were his former subordinates. These soldiers may not come to celebrate for the two babies because of Han Junzhan, since Han Junzhan was only a major general now, but they absolutely couldn’t come because of Grandpa Han.
Therefore, almost all military officers of general rank and above who were able to attend were present, making it a truly grand occasion.
Although Old Master Luo did not serve in the military, he was a businessman. His status in the business world was equivalent to that of a local emperor, and no one dared to disrespect him. Therefore, when some bigwigs in the business world heard that Old Master Luo’s great-grandson was going to hold a full moon celebration, they naturally brought gifts to attend.
Although neither of the elders of the Han and Luo families were involved in politics, Luo Lingxing’s second brother, Luo Bingshuo, was on the right path and was a rising star in the political arena. Of course, one person’s status alone was not enough to attract the bigwigs of the political world, but the Han and Luo families were already very outstanding in the other two fields, so even the bigwigs in the political world would give them some face.
Therefore, this garden was where the most outstanding people from all fields of the empire gathered. If any country or individual wanted to harm the empire, they only needed to blow up this garden, and the losses to the Chinese Empire would be unimaginable.
The guests were exchanging pleasantries in the garden, and many began to congratulate the two old men. Han Junzhan left his elder brother Han Junyu to greet the guests alone, and quietly slipped back to their room. Seeing Luo Lingxing playing with the two children, Han Junzhan felt that his life was complete.
“Junzhan, has everyone outside arrived?” Luo Lingxing asked when he saw Han Jun Zhan.
Once everyone outside had arrived, it would be his turn to bring the babies out. Actually, he didn’t really like this kind of scene, since almost everyone came with all sorts of complicated thoughts. However, since it was the babies’ full moon celebration, and the two old men wanted to announce the babies’ existence to the entire empire, the arrival of these people was enough to give the babies face and make a good impression. So, it wasn’t unreasonable for him to take the babies out for a while.
“Okay, that’s about it. We can go out in a bit.” Han Junzhan stepped forward, kissed Luo Lingxing on the forehead, and then took Xiao Xiaoling in his arms.
Don’t let Xiao Xiaoling’s age fool you. He’s much more mischievous than his older brother. His little hands and feet were always waving around, and he was curious about everything he saw, wanting to touch and grab things himself. He was especially difficult to hold, requiring more effort and attention to be on him.
Therefore, when they went out, it was usually Han Junzhan who carried Xiao Xiaoling.
When Han Junzhan and Luo Lingxing appeared carrying the two babies, the once bustling Central Garden suddenly fell silent. The two old men, who had been chatting with everyone, couldn’t wait to surround the babies, looking at them with the expressions of doting grandfathers, their affection overflowing.
“Thank you all for coming to the babies’ one month celebration. I hope you all have a great time tonight.” Han Junzhan said a few words on stage, then stepped aside, and the two old men also spoke.
Since Han Junzhan was the baby’s father, he naturally had to speak on behalf of the baby first. The two old men were not only great-grandfathers, but also big names in the military and business worlds. Many people in the audience were there because of the two men, so they naturally had to speak as well.
But this was, after all, the babies’ one month celebration, so the babies were the main focus. Therefore, everyone’s speaking time was very short. After that, Luo Lingxing and Han Junzhan held the babies and interacted with these big shots. The big shots were immediately captivated by the babies’ adorable appearance.
