Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The song that lasted more than three minutes made Murong Qiao feel that she had not heard enough.
She watched as Xian Yu stopped singing. She felt that it would not be too much even if she heard it ten or a hundred times.
Just as Xian Yu finished singing, a dazzling round of fireworks suddenly bloomed in the night sky outside.
She looked at the dark night sky outside in surprise and saw colorful fireworks rising from the sky, exploding into beautiful shapes.
Dazzling lights passed through the air, and the fireworks display lasted for half an hour.
“Happy birthday!!!”
Surrounded by blessings, Murong Qiao was surrounded by everyone. She looked at the fireworks in the distance and suddenly laughed.
“This is the best birthday I’ve ever had.”
She said softly, but her voice was drowned out by the surrounding voices. Murong Qiao felt even happier.
All her unhappiness and negative emotions disappeared at this moment, leaving only countless joy and happiness that filled her up.
At the last step of the banquet, they cut the cake.
The waiter pushed the huge and beautiful three-layer cake to the center and placed it in front of Murong Qiao, allowing her to smell the fragrance of the cream.
“Make a wish?” Murong Chen asked.
A few gorgeous and beautiful candles were inserted into the cake, carrying a flickering candlelight as they waited for a wish to descend.
Murong Qiao stood in front of the cake and slowly closed her eyes.
Scenes quickly flashed past her eyes. Those were everything that had happened since her rebirth.
She actually did not really believe in wishes. She only felt that this thing was really untouchable.
But at today’s banquet, Murong Qiao was surprisingly willing to cooperate.
The lights of the banquet were also extinguished at the right time, leaving only the beautiful candlelight on the cake that reflected Murong Qiao’s beautiful and exquisite face.
She closed her eyes quietly, and everyone present fell silent.
If she had to make a wish—
She wanted to be with Huo Yichen forever. She wanted her Big Brothers to be safe and happy, and she wanted the people important to her to be by her side.
Murong Qiao chanted in her heart and solemnly made this wish with a hint of prayer.
She just felt that this was very good and wanted to continue like this.
“Fu—”
She blew out the candle.
The cake also served its purpose. After Murong Qiao made a wish, it was cut into a few portions with a knife and distributed to everyone.
“Happy birthday.”
“I hope Qiaoqiao won’t have anything to worry about in the future.”
Amidst the blessings, the banquet welcomed its end.
It was Murong Chen who made the decision. He felt that it was better not to play too late, so the banquet ended at ten o’clock.
“Young Miss, I’ll be in charge of the follow-up to the banquet. Please rest early.” Uncle Yang helped her carry the hems of her gown as she went to the changing room.
Murong Qiao, who had been standing at the banquet in a gown for a long time, felt her ankles ache in her high heels.
She lowered her eyes and nodded obediently. “Alright, Uncle Yang, please rest early too.”
“Thank you for your concern, Young Miss.” Uncle Yang bowed.
He sent Murong Qiao to the door of the changing room and took two steps back, preparing to go downstairs.
“In addition, I have to wish you a happy birthday, although it’s a little late.” Uncle Yang had a smile on his face.
Seeing Murong Qiao’s happy smile at the banquet, Uncle Yang was also sincerely happy.
Murong Qiao’s heart warmed, and a faint smile appeared on her lips. “Thank you.”
Although Uncle Yang was the butler, Murong Qiao treated him as one of her family.
She entered the changing room and took off her beautiful gown. She then changed into a light dress and planned to return to her room to rest.
However, after the banquet, Murong Qiao, who was in the changing room, looked at the phone screen in her hand. Her gaze was lazy and distracted as she thought about the one person who had not made a move today.
She pursed her lips and unlocked the screen to take a look at the chat box. It was clean.
Murong Qiao’s fingertips rubbed against the screen, eager to share her joy today and the gifts she received with him.
The joy in her heart was almost overflowing, but she shrank back in front of the clean screen.
Did he… really forget about her birthday?
Murong Qiao’s face was illuminated by the light of the cell phone. Her clear and beautiful eyes were filled with loneliness.
Murong Qiao couldn’t tell Huo Yichen about her birthday today.
Because he had been very busy recently with his studies, the company, and the Huo Family. Murong Qiao didn’t want to take up his limited time, and she was more willing to let him rest well.
But on this day, looking at the clean phone screen, Murong Qiao had to admit that she was still a little disappointed.
She tapped her fingertips on the screen, wanting to tell him what she had done today.
However, after typing a line, she stared at it for a long time before hesitating to delete it. She thought that she should send it tomorrow.
Murong Qiao was afraid that her message would wake Huo Yichen up.
She returned to her bedroom and glanced at the time.
It was clearly eleven o’clock, but she was not sleepy at all. She was very energetic.
The minute hand turned bit by bit, and time passed. However, she lay on the bed, holding her cell phone and couldn’t bear to put it down.
Her cell phone suddenly vibrated, and the screen lit up to show an incoming call.
Murong Qiao stood up and picked up the call. “Hello?”
Her voice was filled with anticipation and urgency. She picked up the call without even looking at the caller’s name.
“Qiaoqiao, happy birthday!” Yang Xin’s cheerful voice came from the phone.
Murong Qiao’s expression changed from obvious excitement to disappointment because the voice coming from the phone was not the person she was looking forward to.
Her voice lowered. “It’s you.”
Her disappointed tone was a little obvious. Murong Qiao also realized that this was not good, but she couldn’t control her anticipation just now.
“We’re downstairs at your house. Come quickly, I’ve prepared a surprise for you!” Yang Xin was excited.
Murong Qiao frowned in confusion. “A surprise?”
“Anyway, just come down!”
After saying this, Yang Xin didn’t say anything else.
Murong Qiao hung up the phone in confusion and walked out of the room to go downstairs. She told Uncle Yang that a friend was looking for her and walked out.
The car Yang Xin mentioned was at the door. The headlights of the car were even on, as if reminding her of its existence.
“Here, here!” Yang Xin pulled her into the car.
Murong Qiao followed her movements and saw that Leng Yan was also in the car with a driver.
She was confused. “…You guys?”
Then, before Murong Qiao could react, the car started and drove her out. It looked like they had a destination.
When she came back to her senses, Murong Qiao was already standing at the entrance of the manor.
Yang Xin stood beside her. “It’s here.”
Murong Qiao looked at her helplessly.
For someone like Yang Xin who couldn’t hide her thoughts, she was just short of writing the words “surprise” on her face.
Murong Qiao followed her and took a step forward to push open the door.
The lights in the house lit up with her movements, illuminating the things and people inside.
“You guys…” She was so surprised that her voice stopped.
Not only were Yang Xin and Leng Yan here, even An Nuo was here. There were also many people she knew.
Inside, it looked like a modified conservatory, with the outer circle enveloped in large white roses, creating an enclosure around the open central area. In the very center stood a statue of an angel, pure white and immaculate, exuding an air of sanctity.
Looking at this scene, a faint thought appeared in Murong Qiao’s heart.
Most importantly, Huo Yichen appeared in front of her.
Murong Qiao looked at the scene in front of her and couldn’t say anything for a long time..
