"Lets go the the restaurant. It's nearly peak hours, we need to hurry up otherwise we will be sitting on traffic jam" Sean reminded the happy parents who could chat nonstop for hours.
At 6 o'clock they finally arrived at a chinese restaurant. It was already packed with people who celebrated chinese new year eve dinner. They were directed to a private room with 3 tables were ready for them.
Alan stunned when he saw nother faces in that room who looked familiar.

"Alan, you are gown up. Congratulations for your wedding" Uncle Nguyen and his wife greeted him.
"In law, this is the brother of Alan biological mother. He live in other city" Mrs Feng introduced a couple with their two grown up daughters. The couples greet every one and they were crying when they saw Alan "Your parents must be happy in the heaven. Congratulations".
Alan smiled he didn't have any bad felling towards the family, he met them when hr was 6 or 7 years old. Nonetheless he introduced them to Michelle. But His happyness was evaporated when he saw another family of 6 came. It had been ages he didn't see them but he remembered them clearly in his mind and his heart, he wouldn't able to forget those people until He died.
He sneered and said coldly "Why are they here ?".
"I asked them to come" Mrs Feng tapped Alan shoulder.
"Nephew, congratulations" the lady on that group shook Alan hands and acted very sweet. While Auncle Nguyen and Alan's uncle smirked at them with disgusting face.
"Nephew? me ? Father in law, let me introduce you to these couple. He is my father deceased brother who kindly kicked me out from their home after they took my parents and little brother death insurance" Alan clenched his hands.
"Lets sit. Baby is hungry" Michelle spoke softly to Alan as She tried to calm her husband down.
"You guys enjoyed the food. But bear in mind, I only do it because Mum and Dad invite you. Don't ever try to come and find me again after today" Alan warned his paternal uncle and his family.
The bouquet started very soon and ended after 10 o'clock. They had a nice dinner with a lot of laugh and teasing. Alan mood was lifted due to his siblings and his borther in laws effort. However until the end of the banquet he gave his fraternal uncle a cold shoulder. Don't mention a word, Alan didn't even spare a glance to them.
