Shang Lu returned home excitedly because Chi Yan said he had prepared a birthday gift for her.
However, the moment the door and lights were switched on, Shang Lu realized something was amiss.
On the shoe rack by the door, all the disposable slippers were missing, and there were two unfamiliar coats on the coat rack. On the coffee table, there was a bag… Lin Yanyan’s, she remembered.
Lin Yanyan hadn’t been to her house these past few days, and there definitely wasn’t this bag on the coffee table before she went out.
Shang Lu still held the bouquet that Chi Yan had made for her, her gaze continuing to search for anything unusual in her own home.
After noticing so many ‘anomalies,’ Chi Yan also knew that it was evidently impossible to hide it any longer.
Instead of going inside, Shang Lu turned back to look at Chi Yan, her eyes showing some confusion, and she mouthed, “How many people?”
Chi Yan also mouthed back to Shang Lu, “Seven,” then crouched down to grab Shang Lu’s slippers and placed them by her feet, gesturing for her to enter first.
Shang Lu could already roughly guess the people based on the number in her mind, so she stepped into the house with the slippers on.
Wherever she looked at, there was still no one.
Until she reached the door of the guest room.
*Ahem!* Chi Yan coughed deliberately.
The guest room door was instantly flung open, and Lin Yanyan came out holding a cake, shouting first, “Happy birthday, Lulu!”
Candles were already lit on the cake, and as the candlelight flickered, the others also started to emerge from the room one by one.
“Happy birthday!” Ye Lu stepped forward to give Shang Lu a hug, then chuckled arrogantly, “I’m the first one to hug the birthday girl!”
He didn’t pay any attention to the look in Chi Yan’s eyes, only provoking Lin Yanyan.
Lin Yanyan widened her eyes, immediately thrust the cake into Xu Ze’s hands, and tried to lift Shang Lu up, shouting, “Lulu, happy birthday!”
All the members of Xiao Taoyan were present, plus Ou Yi, and Xiao Mi who was holding a small box.
Shang Lu counted the number of people and then froze.
Why were there eight people? Where did the extra person come from?
Counting again… huh? Wenren Yan?
Shang Lu looked at Wenren Yan in surprise and said, “You’re here too.”
Chi Yan : “…?”
Wenren Yan actively raised both hands and explained to Chi Yan, “I came to find you, but when I knocked on your door and no one answered, I was about to leave. Then, I saw this group of people, so I became curious and asked. I didn’t expect it was Sister-in-law’s birthday, and for such a lively occasion, of course, I had to join in!”
“Hold on,” Ye Lu directly interrupted Wenren Yan’s words, somewhat puzzled. “Is Shang Lu your Sister-in-law? Who is your Brother?”
How is it that Ye Lu can understand every individual word Wenren Yan says, but when they’re put together, it’s not even coherent?
Wenren Yan pointed at Chi Yan and mocked Ye Lu directly, “Open your eyes and look at what’s in my Sister-in-law’s arms. Roses! Isn’t it clear that they’re dating?”
“Roses?!” Lin Yanyan let out a high-pitched scream right then, snatched the bouquet of roses from Shang Lu’s hands and moved back frantically, saying, “Are you crazy?”
Jiang Jing also quickly came forward to check, “Is there any itching? Do you need to go to the hospital?”
Xiao Mi also looked very worried.
Shang Lu quickly waved his hand and explained, “Those roses are fake, so there’s no allergy. Don’t worry.”
Lin Yanyan half-believed and half-doubted, lowered her head, and after touching the roses with her hand to confirm they were fake, she breathed a sigh of relief and placed them on the coffee table.
Song Zeqian yawned; this birthday celebration was already affecting his routine. He reminded them, “If you don’t blow out the candles soon, they might go out.”
Everyone : “!”
Everyone stopped making a fuss. Lin Yanyan turned around again to find the cake and snatched it back from Xu Ze’s hand, bringing it in front of Shang Lu.
This was the second time today that Shang Lu heard the birthday song.
While everyone was singing, Shang Lu closed her eyes, put her hands together, and made a wish.
A wish… what kind of wish?
This birthday song sounds terrible! Why are these people going off-key even when singing ‘Happy Birthday’?
Except for Ou Yi’s voice, she could tell it was decent; the others were getting worse one by one, Ye Lu was deliberately singing loudly, and Wenren Yan… his singing was also terrible!
But in this atmosphere, she still liked it very much.
Shang Lu tried to push all the complaints out of her mind and made a wish.
In fact, she didn’t have any wishes left.
She already got everything she wanted.
Then, she hopes everyone can continue to live happily like this forever.
She really wants to say thank you.
Thank you to these people who are willing to be with her all the time.
The terrible birthday song continues to be sung, and Ou Yi can’t beat it, so he joins in and starts competing with Ye Lu Lu to see who can sing it worse.
In this lively atmosphere, Shang Lu blows out the candles, looks at everyone, and says, “Thank you.”
Shang Lu looks back at Chi Yan and asks, “Can you tell me what’s going on?”
“I’ll tell you!” Lin Yanyan raises her hand directly and says, “We originally wanted to celebrate your birthday, but we weren’t sure if you wanted to, so we asked Chi Yan to find out for us. If you weren’t happy, we told him to message us, and we would quickly withdraw!”
Shang Lu is obviously in a good mood today, so everything proceeds according to plan.
Shang Lu cuts the cake for everyone and shares it with each person.
The candles are also blown out, the cake is eaten, and Ye Lu finally remembers the main point. He looks at Shang Lu, then at Chi Yan by her side, and asks, “Are you two together?”
Shang Lu nods and takes this opportunity to formally introduce Chi Yan to everyone, saying, “Chi Yan, my boyfriend.”
Xiao Mi’s eyes reveal understanding, and she lowers her head to eat her cake.
Ye Lu looks at Chi Yan with a critical eye and says, “I’ve seen you a few times, but we’re not familiar. Can you give a brief self-introduction?”
“I’ll introduce him,” Song Zeqian’s lazy voice chimes in, saying, “President Chi, he’s the new investor in our movie.”
Ye Lu’s eyes widen, and he immediately stands up, walks over to Chi Yan, and shakes his hand, saying, “President Chi, nice to meet you!”
Lin Yanyan extends her foot to kick Ye Lu’s heel and says, “Look at you, licking dog!”
Ye Lu suddenly realizes something is amiss.
Thank you for updating!!!!
Yelv Lu’s eyes widen, and he immediately stands up, walks over to Chi Yan, and shakes his hand
Fixed, thanks!
