Wang Yunmei shook her head in disagreement and sighed. “This gift is too expensive!”
Just as Wang Yunmei had said, if Xiao Ai needed a laptop, she could buy one for herself. Or as her mother, she could buy one for her.
If her sister’s family situation was better, she would not object.
The main reason was that Wang Yunzhi’s family’s financial situation was not good. If they were to afford a computer, they would probably have to spend half a year of their combined salary.
“It’s fine. South City will be demolished soon. As her aunt, I can afford twenty thousand yuan. Besides, I don’t feel heartache when I spend it on Xiao Ai,” Wang Yunzhi said with a smile.
Since she had already bought it, what else could Wang Yunmei say? She only said, “You’ve doted on her since she was young.”
“Aunt, why didn’t you buy one for me?” Wang Zichen felt jealous and leaned towards Wang Yunzhi.
When Jiang Chunfen saw this, she couldn’t help but hit Wang Zichen’s head with the onion stick in her hand. “Go away. You’re always at the bottom of the rankings for every examination, yet you still want a computer? I think it’s more like it to buy you a bowl of tofu pudding! If you’re like Xiao Ai, who can always get into the top five in the cohort, win a gold award in the Mathematical Olympiad, and get an additional twenty points for the college entrance examination, I won’t just buy you a computer, but I will also buy you a rocket.”
Wang Zichen rubbed his head and looked reluctant. “Our family doesn’t lack twenty thousand yuan. If you buy it for me, I promise to study hard.”
“You promised me the same thing when you asked for a phone last time. I don’t believe you!” Jiang Chunfen said.
When Wang Zichen heard this, he was speechless for a moment. After a while, he snorted softly. “Forget it. Who cares?”
With that, he walked out of the kitchen angrily.
It was not until past eight in the evening that they had served all the dishes on the table. Everyone sat down. Jian Ai sat between Wang Yunmei and Jian Yu and smiled exceptionally happily.
Before the birthday party, she naturally had to blow out the candles and make a wish. Hence, Wang Yunzhi took the cake out of the fridge and placed it on the table. Then she untied the ribbon outside and opened the box with one hand.
Fresh fruits and colorful soft sugar topped the emerald green cake. It looked exceptionally bright and delicious. However, when everyone noticed the words on it, they were stunned.
Happy birthday to the most handsome brother in the universe.
“Huh?” Wang Yunzhi reacted first, but she was confused.” What’s going on?”
Jian Yu looked and knew what had happened.
“Aunt, you took the wrong cake!” Jian Yu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Ah?” Wang Yunzhi was stunned for a moment before she said in frustration, “No, how could I have gotten it wrong? The staff gave it to me personally.”
Jian Yu explained, “When I went to order the cake, a girl ordered the same cake as me. She ordered it for her brother. It’s obvious that this is the one she ordered.”
Everyone: “…”
Wasn’t this nonsense?
It was Xiao Ai’s birthday, but there were the words “the most handsome brother in the universe” on the cake.
“Oh, what should I do?” Wang Yunzhi was a little embarrassed. She didn’t know what to do with the cake box.
Seeing this, Jian Ai smiled indifferently. “It’s fine, Aunt. That girl’s brother has the same birthday as me. It’s fate that we ate each other’s cake, right? Let’s just eat this. It looks delicious!”
Jian Ai’s attitude was casual. It was obvious that she didn’t mind the wrong cake. After all, it was just food. If she blew the candle and ate it, who would care what the words on it were?
