After Charlie came out of the shower, seeing his wife Claire hadn’t returned to
the room, he put on his pajamas and went to the living room again.
In the living room, the family of three was chatting happily.
Jacob and Elaine, the old friends who had been arguing about separating,
unexpectedly stopped pouncing at each other.
Charlie came down and asked curiously: “Claire, Dad, Mom. Why don’t you

Claire hurriedly got up, ran over to take Charlie’s arm, and said with a smile:
“My parents said they want to stay awake, your 27th birthday is less than two hours away. Everyone is waiting to
wish you a happy birthday!”
Charlie smiled knowingly, and said, “Thank you, wife, thank you, parents.”
Elaine immediately flattered and said, “Oh my son-in-law, what you and doing with your mother so politely, it
is really too strange.”
After finishing speaking, she immediately asked: “By the way, my son-in-law, tomorrow is your birthday. Will your
customers come to our house to give you gifts like the one time at New Year?”
Charlie was startled. He didn’t know whether Issac and the others would come to give him gifts.
However, he did have some headaches about the scene of queuing to take gifts, so he made up his mind to say
to Issac after a while and asked him to ask some other people, if he really wishes to prepare gifts for him, he
would ask him to not do it or deliver home.
So while he took out his mobile phone to send Issac WeChat, he said to Elaine, “Mom, the reason why they came
to give gifts during the New Year is mainly that I helped them a lot last year, so they concentrated on coming
over at the end of the year to say thank you.”

not brought by the wind.”
When Elaine heard this, she couldn’t help but said with a bit of disappointment
on her face: “I thought they would come tomorrow too. If this is the case, then
wait patiently until the end of this year.”
Claire on the side heard this and shook her head helplessly.
Afterward, it was rare for the family to sit together and chat quietly.
Both Claire and Jacob talked about their own work.
