Ye Wanqing's expression was a bit uncontrollable. This situation was very embarrassing. She was originally prepared to encourage Mumu and Linlin to work hard like they did at yesterday's sports meeting and not to give up easily, but Gu Jin was Yuan was blocked with one sentence.
The cake was very small. She only put a candle in it and didn't write happy birthday. She didn't prepare any other gifts. To say that it was specially for Gu Jinyuan's birthday would be too thin and insincere.
But to tell the truth, Ye Wanqing was worried that Gu Jinyuan would be even more angry.
In the flash of lightning, Ye Wanqing thought a lot, and finally, under Gu Jinyuan's gaze, she took the lead in singing the birthday song.
"Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you..."
Ye Wanqing never thought of becoming a singer, but her voice is very clean and her tone is beautiful, and she sings very beautifully.
Ye Chenlin is a very supportive person. Although he doesn't like to see Gu Jinyuan, he also knows that the birthday boy is always the oldest, so he quickly reacted and sang along with Ye Wanqing.
Gu Zhenmu had never seen Gu Jinyuan on his birthday. He was stunned for a long time and was elbowed by Ye Chenlin several times before he could follow the chorus.
After singing the song, Ye Wanqing bravely invited Gu Jinyuan to come over and blow out the candles: "Make...make a wish."
Ye Wanqing lacked confidence and said that she was riding a tiger but could not get off, fearing that Gu Jinyuan would ask her for a birthday gift later.
She didn't know that her worries were completely unfounded. Gu Jinyuan was actually in a more shocked state than she was now. He didn't expect that after so many years, someone would still celebrate his birthday.
The birthday cake in front of me was very small, with only a circle of cream lace and a few slices of fruit on top. The design was not very pretty, and it was obvious that Ye Wanqing made it herself.
The lights in the room were turned off, and by the dim candlelight, Ye Wanqing and the two children blinked and looked at him expectantly, leaving him in no mood to find out how she found out about his birthday.
Seeing that he didn't take any action, Ye Wanqing asked tentatively: "Don't you want to make a wish? Do you want to cut the cake first?"
Gu Jinyuan's throat was a little choked, so he stepped forward and blew out the candle.
The room suddenly became dark, Gu Zhenmu and Ye Chenlin cheered and clapped, Ye Wanqing felt breath coming closer, and Gu Jinyuan's kiss fell accurately on her lips.
Snapped!
The housekeeper turned on the light, and Ye Wanqing happened to see Gu Jinyuan retreating away. His expression was serious, which made Ye Wanqing a little confused. Did this man really kiss her just now?
"Where's the knife?"
Gu Jinyuan asked, and Ye Wanqing hurriedly handed him the knife and plate.
An even more embarrassing thing happened. Ye Wanqing only prepared three plates and spoons.
Originally...she had no plans to visit Jin Yuan.
"Why are there only three plates?"
Gu Jinyuan asked, looking at her with sharp eyes. Ye Wanqing's back felt cold and she continued to lie: "I...I can't eat sweets. I'm about to join the group. I have to pay attention to staying in shape."
Gu Jinyuan's eyes swept around her body, and finally landed on her chest: "Don't lose weight, too thin is not good."
As he spoke, he cut a large piece of cake and placed it in front of her.
I don't know if Gu Jinyuan's hand came with a measuring instrument, but this piece was exactly one-third of the way to the west, and the cut piece looked like a corner.
Gu Zhenmu and Ye Chenlin both opened their eyes in surprise and continued to watch Gu Jinyuan cut the rest.
Ye Wanqing took the spoon and lowered her head to eat the cake, not daring to say anything for fear that Gu Jinyuan would ask anything else.
Gu Jinyuan and Gu Zhenmu actually don't like sweets very much. Gu Zhenmu divided half of his piece of cake to Ye Chenlin, and Gu Jinyuan barely tasted the piece before pushing it to Ye Wanqing.
Ye Wanqing was a little tired of eating, but she didn't dare to refuse, so she could only force herself to finish the cake.
Ye Chenlin had a round belly and was very satisfied. When it was time to go to bed, he and Gu Zhenmu said "Happy Birthday, Dad" to Gu Jinyuan and went up to wash up and go to bed.
Ye Wanqing was about to clear the dishes, but Gu Jinyuan grabbed her wrist.
His palms were hot, and Ye Wanqing's eyelids twitched due to the burning. She felt bad for the first time. Just as she was about to interrupt, Gu Jinyuan spoke first: "Since you have put so much effort into making the cake, where is the gift?"
“……”
Mr. Gu, if I say there is no gift at all, will you kick me out of your house?
After carefully weighing the pros and cons, Ye Wanqing decisively chose to abandon the bottom line and bury the truth.
Ye Wanqing hooked Gu Jinyuan's neck with her other hand and whispered in his ear: "The gift hasn't been wrapped yet. Mr. Gu needs to wait a moment, okay?"
"good!"
Gu Jinyuan carried Ye Wanqing to the bathroom, then exited and waited for Ye Wanqing to pack herself up.
Ye Wanqing was not prepared for anything. She was about to cry while driving the bathroom heater, but her eyes finally fell on the apron she was wearing.
Although it's a bit shameful, but... so be it!
Ye Wanqing was undoubtedly tortured enough by Gu Jinyuan this night.
The apron was crumpled and thrown to the ground, never to appear on Ye Wanqing again.
The next day, Ye Wanqing slept until the afternoon again. When she woke up, it was already half past one. She was in a daze for a while, then suddenly remembered her agreement with Nie Zheng, and quickly got up and washed up.
Going downstairs, the housekeeper thoughtfully prepared hot milk and birth control pills.
Ye Wanqing took the drink and was about to go out. Before she left, she heard the housekeeper say: "Madam, this morning the husband asked me if I revealed his birthday to you. I said yes. The husband was very happy yesterday. I hope the wife will not reveal the secret in the future. ”
Ye Wanqing nodded, walked to the door and looked back suspiciously, "Hasn't anyone among you celebrated his birthday before?"
"This is not your business, madam."
The butler's expression became unpredictable again. Ye Wanqing lost interest in questioning and turned around to go out.
Lu Zhou saw Gu Zhenmu off and they came back, just in time to drive Ye Wanqing to the Shiguang Cafe.
It was working time at this time, and there were very few people in the cafe. Ye Wanqing looked outside and did not see Nie Zheng.
In order to match her character, she wore a white dress today and flat sandals. She passed by the supermarket on the way here, bought a bag of ice, and applied it to her ankles.
The ankle was still swollen and had a fever. It was quite comfortable when the ice pack was first applied, but after a while it started to sting. Ye Wanqing gritted her teeth and endured it. She opened the door and got out of the car after her ankle was numb from the cold.
The moment she got off the car, she entered a state of relaxation, lowered her head slightly, and walked quickly towards the cafe.
After pushing the door open and entering the cafe, she looked around warily. She had no experience and no purpose. She looked around in a circle, but she actually had no destination.
"Hello, what do you need?"
The clerk asked enthusiastically, but Ye Wanqing avoided the clerk's gaze, quickly looked over the menu, and then ordered the most expensive drink.
"Okay, the total is 138 yuan. How do you want to pay?"
The clerk asked. Ye Wanqing fumbled in her bag for a long time, her face flushed slightly, causing the clerk to look at her suspiciously, as if to check whether she had money to pay the bill.
Finally, Ye Wanqing took out a handful of crumpled money from her bag. Before she could hand it to the clerk, a slender hand rushed over to her and said, "Scan mine."
The person said it was a very clear female voice, but it also had a special magnetism.
