WSu Qianxun had made it a point to dress up today. She was wearing a silvery-white long gown which was embellished with pearls, and the thin fabric flaunted the curves of her delicate and slim body. Her thick, seaweed-like hair that reached her waist flowed languidly over her shoulders. Even though there was not a single hint of makeup on her petite face, behind the candlelight, she looked as pure and adorable as an elf.
Su Qianxun pushed the trolley with the cake on it to the middle of the hall and walked over to the man. As Long Sijue gazed at him, the young woman stood before him and reached out to grab his large hand. She then tip-toed and pressed a kiss on his cheek.
“Ah Jue, happy birthday!”
The young woman’s voice was soft and gooey, tickling his heart like a feather.
Su Qianxun was actually a little anxious when she saw that he had no reaction at all. However, she still bravely dragged him toward the trolley with the cake on it. Fortunately, he did not object to it, and he obediently followed her.
At that moment, Tang Zui, Si Mancheng, Ye Gu, and Gu Mian who Su Qianxun had invited over for the celebration walked into the hall.
Long Sijue looked at Tang Zui. Tang Zui suddenly clapped and said, “Let’s sing the birthday song for the birthday boy first. The birthday boy can then make a wish and blow out the candles!
“One, two, three, start…”
“Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you…”
The people around Long Sijue clapped as they sang. The expression on Long Sijue’s handsome face was a little strange, and he even looked like he was at a loss for what to do. After all, he had never celebrated his birthday his entire life. So, he did not know how to react right then.
This continued until a soft little hand gently took his large hand. Su Qianxun gazed at him with a smile and said, “Make a wish, then blow out the candles!”
A little embarrassed, Long Sijue turned away and pursed his lips. Su Qianxun continued, “Birthday wishes always come true! Do you really want to give up such a good opportunity? Why don’t you make a wish?”
Long Sijue turned to look at her, and his Adam’s apple bobbed. “Will my wish really come true?”
Su Qianxun immediately nodded vigorously. Only then did Long Sijue turn to face the birthday cake. It only took him a second to make his wish. “I’m done!”
Su Qianxun was speechless.
“That was fast. It seems that you have long harbored this wish of yours in your heart!” Tang Zui looked like he really wanted to know what wish Long Sijue had made.
“Stop with your nonsense. Jue, blow out the candles.” Si Mancheng slapped Tang Zui on the head.
“Come on, can’t you be a little gentler with someone who’s injured?” Tang Zui glared at Si Mancheng with a glum expression.
“It’s your hand that’s injured, not your head!” Si Mancheng rolled his eyes.
Tang Zui failed to come up with anything to retort Si Mancheng’s statement.
After all of them blew the candles out together, all the lights in Jin Garden were switched on again.
Su Qianxun then held Long Sijue’s hands and guided him as he cut the cake. He was like a newborn baby when it came to this. Like a blank piece of paper, he knew nothing about birthday celebrations. Su Qianxun earnestly taught him what to do.
Tang Zui popped open a bottle of champagne and poured it into the glasses that made up a champagne tower.
“Chick, didn’t you prepare Jue a birthday gift? Quick, take it out!” When Tang Zui saw that Su Qianxun was standing there in a daze without taking out the present, he could not help but remind her about it.
Long Sijue’s gaze fell upon the young woman’s face. Su Qianxun quickly raised her head and glanced at the man before her. She thought about her conversation with Lan Qingcheng earlier today.
Lan Qingcheng gave him a wristwatch that cost twenty million RMB, and she only spent two thousand RMB on the materials for the necktie. When she compared her gift with Lan Qingcheng’s, she felt that her gift was not really worth much.
When Gu Mian who had been quietly devouring her slice of cake saw that Su Qianxun was not moving at all, she said a little anxiously, “Qianxun, you almost lost your life because of this gift yesterday. Why aren’t you giving it to him?”
