Translator: MoboReader Editor: MoboReader
The Jing family’s villa was located in Bang Shan Villa Area in the prime location of D City. The residents here were affluent and influential people. To protect their privacy, the roads in this area were usually narrow. Only two cars could go side by side. When Lao Zhou backed the car, it happened to get in the middle of the road. So the Regal that was going up the slope was blocked behind.
Lao Zhou hurriedly turned the steering wheel so that the car behind could turn to the gate.
After making sure that the car was in the right place, he looked at Su Ruowan. Seeing that she lowered her body, almost lying on the car seat, he asked worriedly, “Miss Su, are you not feeling well?”
“Huh? Oh, no. I’m fine.” Su Ruowan straightened up in embarrassment. But she kept her head down in fear that the person in the other car might see her.
Soon, the Regal entered the gate of the Jing family’s villa. Lao Zhou also drove forward. When the car passed the gate, Su Ruowan took a glance at the red Regal. There she saw Zhang Luoya and Li Manting in the back seat.
Inside the Jing family’s villa.
Jing Yanxi in his white suit and Jiu Jiu in her white dress came in. They looked like a young couple.
Jing Yanxi had always been a naughty boy since he was born. Almost all the children of the Jing family’s friends and relatives had been teased by him. And he became even naughtier when he started going to kindergarten. Basically, he had no playmates. But today, he brought a little girl home. This was unprecedented, so it made Old Mr. Jing happy.
“Yan Yan, come here,” he said, waving at Jing Yanxi.
Jing Yanxi kept Su Ruoyan’s words in mind. Holding Jiu Jiu’s hand like a little gentleman, he walked up to Old Mr. Jing. “Hello, Great-grandpa.”
Then he pretended to look serious and said to Jiu Jiu, “This is my great-grandpa. Say hello to him.”
Jiu Jiu looked at the grey-haired old man in front of her and greeted in a sweet voice, “Hello, Great-grandpa.”
Her big black eyes looked bright and innocent, with fluttering long and curly eyelashes. With such a fair little face, she was as beautiful as a doll. As Old Mr. Jing stared at Jiu Jiu in front of him, tenderness filled his heart. As if afraid of frightening the delicate little girl, he asked in a soft voice, “Little girl, what’s your name?”
She looked up at him and replied, “My name is Su Anjiu. Everyone calls me Jiu Jiu.”
Old Mr. Jing was so amused by her. He stood up from the sofa. “Let’s go. I’ll take you to see the big cake.” He then held the two kids in both hands and walked towards the dining room.
“Wow, so beautiful!” Jiu Jiu was in utter shock. It was her first time to see such a gigantic cake. Su Ruowan usually bought her a little cake on her birthday. With her eyes wide open, her mouth was slightly agape. She tiptoed and curiously looked at the cake.
There was a picture of Jing Yanxi on the cake. Then the chocolate letters said, “Happy fifth birthday, Yan Yan!” There were also five little candles inserted on the side.
A trace of envy flashed across her eyes. She thought to herself that Jing Yanxi was really living a happy life.
At this time, Li Manting and Zhang Luoya walked in. As usual, Zhang Luoya was dressed in a cute dress. She approached Jing Yanxi and handed him the huge Lego in her hand fawningly. “Yan Yan, this is my birthday gift for you. Do you like it?”
Jing Yanxi glanced at it impatiently and said disdainfully, “Childish! I don’t like this kind of kids’ toys!”
Zhang Luoya was rendered speechless.
The smile on her face froze. She was so embarrassed that she didn’t know if she should retract her hands or not.
“Yan Yan!” Li Manting shouted. She was afraid that Zhang Luoya would be embarrassed, so she quickly said, “It is such a big box of toy! Luoya, you must have chosen it very carefully, right? Come, put it here.” She then took the big box and put it on the table.
As Jiujiu looked at the big box being placed among the piles of gifts, her grip on the pink bag in her hand tightened. With so many expensive gifts, would Jing Yanxi be interested in Su Ruowan’s cookies?
At this time, Aunt Hui shouted from the outside, “Mr. Li Muchen, Mr. Jing Muchen, Miss Jing Muxuan, and Mr. Ouyang Lv are here!”
Old Mr. Jing then led the two children to the living room.
At a glance, Jiu Jiu recognized Li Muchen as the only acquaintance among the crowd of strangers in the living room, so she couldn’t help but smile and shout, “Uncle Handsome!”
Upon hearing her cute voice, everyone turned and looked at her.
Li Muchen smiled as a response. It turned out that this little girl had really come to celebrate Jing Yanxi’s birthday. But where was Su Ruowan? Did she really let her daughter attend the party alone?
Jing Muchen also saw Jiu Jiu. His sharp eyes swept around the living room, but he didn’t see the person he was looking for.
“Did you come here alone?” Li Muchen bent over and asked.
Jiu Jiu pursed her lips and nodded. Then her bright eyes moved to Jing Muchen. Wasn’t that Yan Yan’s uncle? She opened her mouth, but she didn’t know if she should also call him Uncle Muchen. While she was hesitating, Jing Muchen stared at her. His dark eyes looked at her big black eyes motionlessly. Under such a look full of scrutiny, even adults would be overwhelmed, let alone a four-year-old little girl. Thus, the confusion in Jiu Jiu’s eyes gradually turned into shyness and finally became fear.
Seeing that the little girl began to shrink and hide, Jing Muchen looked away and restored his usual calmness and indifference. He handed a white well-decorated box to Jing Yanxi and said, “Happy birthday.” Then he turned around and went upstairs.
Zhang Luoya’s face turned pale. She gritted her teeth, mustered her courage, and followed behind him.
When Jing Yanxi opened the box and saw what was inside, he shouted, “Wow, the latest MacBook Air! Thank you, Uncle Muchen!” He couldn’t wait to find a tool to open it.
Holding a giant teddy bear, Ouyang Lv almost couldn’t be seen. He shouted, “Yan Yan, look! I have a giant teddy bear. It can accompany you to sleep. Do you like it?” Jing Yanxi was busy looking for a tool.
So he just looked up and turned around immediately. “Put it there.”
A trace of embarrassment surfaced on Ouyang Lv’s face. Jing Muxuan rolled her eyes at her husband, who had just said that only men knew what little boys liked. It turned out giving him money seemed to be a better choice.
It was only then that Li Manting noticed Jiu Jiu.. She asked casually, “Yan Yan, is she your guest?”
