“Is today your birthday?” Su Qianxun asked meekly. Although he appeared very scary now, she felt a pang in her heart when looking at him.
“No,” Ye Gu denied.
Su Qianxun was rendered speechless.
Su Qianxun shut the partition and sat back down quietly with her eyes fixed on the window. She immediately asked the driver to stop when she saw a cake shop.
After the driver stopped the car by the roadside, she said she had to go down to buy some things and asked them to wait for a while. Ye Gu was worried and wanted to follow Su Qianxun, but she rejected his offer.
After Su Qianxun walked in and saw the array of beautiful cakes, she chose a smaller one and asked the shop assistant to pack it up for her.
After she returned to the car, she placed the cake on the car seat and continued to look out the window. It was already quite late and a lot of shops had already closed, but they passed by a small shopping mall that was still open.
Su Qianxun once again asked the driver to stop the car. She planned to buy Ye Gu a present since today was his birthday. She always believed that someone’s birthday was the happiest day of the year. If a person were to overlook such a happy occasion, what meaning would there be in life?
“I’ll accompany you.”
“There’s no need for that, I only need to buy one item. I’ll be out very soon.” Su Qianxun ran into the mall after she said that.
Ye Gu was a little worried, so he wanted to go in to take a look after waiting outside for a while.
He saw that Su Qianxun bought one item and walked out after she paid.
“Eh, didn’t I say that you don’t have to follow me? Alright, we can go now.” Su Qianxun held the small shopping bag in her hand, ran towards the car and got into the car.
Ye Gu was left speechless.
The car drove away once again. When it passed by a public square, Su Qianxun told Ye Gu to look for her in the middle of the public square in exactly five minutes after she asked the driver to stop the car.
Ye Gu’s furrowed his eyebrows as he vigilantly assessed the surrounding environment. There were still a lot of people in the public square at this moment. When he turned around, he saw a young girl standing before him. Ye Gu stunned for a moment and stared at the other person.
The young girl suddenly flashed a bright smile, took out a rose and gave it to him, “Happy birthday, big brother!”
Ye Gu was rendered speechless.
He reached out and took the rose given to him by the young girl. The young girl turned around and ran away. Then, a chubby young boy ran over and gave Ye Gu the rose he was holding in his hand in a similar manner. He said loudly, “Happy birthday, big brother!”
…..
In under three minutes, countless strangers wished Ye Gu happy birthday and he had already received almost twenty roses. He knew that Su Qianxun was behind this and under the gazes of the people around him, he started to walk toward the middle of the public square…
On the way, he was stopped a few more times by others to wish him a happy birthday.
When Ye Gu found Su Qianxun, she was holding a tiny cake in her hands, and there was a lit candle in the middle of the cake. She flashed a bright smile when she saw him walking over.
“Fortunately, today is still not over yet though it is a little late. Although there’s no big party, there are still so many wishes for you! Ye Gu, happy birthday!” Su Qianxun looked at him with deep sincerity.
Ye Gu stared at the young woman standing near him, at her gentle and beautiful face behind the candlelight. She was the most beautiful person he had ever seen, and the most beautiful existence ever on earth. She had completely melted his rock-hard heart….
“Children, let’s sing a birthday song to this big brother, alright?” Su Qianxun asked those younger and older children who were eating the sweets she gave them.
“Alright!” The children replied unanimously.
“Happy birthday to you…”
Su Qianxun sang him a birthday song together with everyone, and she said, “Make a wish! Then, blow the candle out and your wish will come true!”
