Chapter 228 Dessert
Chapter 228 Dessert
The sweetness in my heart cannot cover up the most hidden anxiety or even loneliness.
"That's right, I like all of these gifts! Xixi, do you think I, Ruochen, have accumulated blessings for several lifetimes?" Ruochen took a sip of tea and agreed.
"I like what you gave me too! Thank you!" Wanqiu poked her head out of Ruochen's arms, very happy.
"I think so too. Maybe I have accumulated blessings for several lifetimes to meet you!" Fan Nuoxi smiled and looked at the drunken people at the table.
Qingran was drowsy in its little nest after eating and drinking.
"Okay, now that we've almost finished eating, let's move on to the last item."
Fan Nuoxi put down the chopsticks in his hand and suddenly snapped his fingers.
The people who were originally a little tipsy were no longer drunk at all.
The birthday cake gift box and rope were quietly untied, revealing its delicious and beautiful true appearance.
Come and have a look. This cake has three layers in total. On the first layer stands a mini version of Ruochen made of a mixture of cream and chocolate. Surrounding the little Ruochen are some chocolate butterflies with colorful creams on them, which look surprisingly lifelike.
This was indeed the case. The moment Ruochen approached the cake, the butterfly on it seemed to come alive and flew towards Ruochen.
In addition to the butterflies, there are also a few small standees on the first floor. The standees have two cute mini versions of Fan Nuoxi standing on both sides. In the middle of the front is written, "One gift for each year, one inch of joy", and on the back is written, "No matter how old you are, long live happiness!"
On the sides of the first layer are some cream roses and green leaves.
The second layer is decorated with some fruits and colorful butterflies, and the same is true on the sides.
The third layer is written with cream, "Happy Birthday to you! \^O^/", and the outside is decorated with chocolate and chocolate chips.
"Xixi, what is this?"
Ruochen was a little surprised when he looked at the exquisite cake and the butterfly running towards him.
"This is called a birthday cake." Fan Nuoxi smiled and put away the butterflies. After a while, a crystal birthday crown appeared in Ruochen's hair, and a lighted candle was placed on the cake.
Fan Nuoxi wished, "Ruochen, happy birthday to you!"
Meng Yujie took the lead in singing the birthday song, "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."
Others were also inspired by the song and started singing along.
Ruochen was suddenly at a loss as to what to do and could only look at everyone with a shy smile.
"Thank you!"
"Ruochen, close your eyes and make a wish!" Fan Nuoxi urged.
"it is good!"
Ruochen closed his eyes, made a wish, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"I've made a wish, what's next?" Ruochen opened his eyes and looked at the cake that exuded a sweet aroma, and couldn't help swallowing.
"Blow out the candles and you can start sharing the cake!"
Ruochen did as he was told.
After taking down the candles, Fan Nuoxi took out a knife, cut off a small piece of cake, put it on a plate and handed it to Ruochen.
"You are the biggest today, so please take the first bite!"
"it is good!"
The cake tasted sweet but not greasy, which was very much to his liking and made Ruochen very happy.
“This is so delicious!”
"As long as you like it!"
Next, after Fan Nuoxi took out the mini version of Ruochen and the stand with the words on it and handed them to Ruochen, she left the rest to Ruochen to decide.
Ruochen took a knife and cut off a piece of cake with butterflies and roses, and handed it to Fan Nuoxi personally, "You have done so much for us, so I wish you peace, happiness, good luck and good fortune!"
"Thank you!" Fan Nuoxi took it with a smile.
Seeing the eager looks of the others, Ruochen smiled secretly in his heart and said generously, "There are still so many, I can't finish them all, so you can help yourselves, but remember to leave some for me."
"Thank you, Brother Ruochen!" Fei Ji, Fei Xia and Cong Huan said in unison.
“Thank you Ruochen!”
"Thank you, Master Ruochen!"
"..."
Perhaps Fei Ji noticed which piece of cake Ruochen liked the most, so when he was cutting it, he left some out and packed it up for Ruochen.
The others followed suit and only took a little so that those who hadn't eaten any would have some. Dongfang Junyan couldn't help but feel a little jealous and insisted on trying the portion in Fan Nuoxi's hand.
Dongfang Junyan looked at the other people in the crowd and asked, "Nuoxi, look at this cake. I don't have any to eat. Why don't you give me some of yours?"
"It's not impossible, but I..."
Before Fan Nuoxi could finish her words, Dongfang Junyan scooped up a small piece of rose cake with Fan Nuoxi's spoon and tasted it.
Fan Nuoxi, "..."
Seeing that Fan Nuoxi was looking at him speechlessly, Dongfang Junyan took out a bouquet of roses from his magic ring and gave it to Fan Nuoxi.
Dongfang Junyan said shyly, "I...this is for you!"
"Thank you!" Looking at the bouquet of bright roses, Fan Nuoxi's bad mood completely disappeared.
For some reason, Fan Nuoxi couldn't help laughing when she saw Dongfang Junyan and the people who were happily eating cake.
After a while, Fan Nuoxi put away the roses, took the cake and ran out to see the scenery outside.
Dongfang Junyan naturally followed closely behind.
While enjoying the sweetness of the cake, Fan Nuoxi looked at the Wuji Palace where there were still many people lingering outside and reluctant to leave, and felt extremely happy.
Such a happy day is so pleasant!
"Dongfang Junyan, do you think we will be together for a long time in the future?" Fan Nuoxi asked subconsciously as she looked at the warm and lively crowd in front of her.
"I will." Dongfang Junyan responded.
No matter what happens in the future, I want to be with you forever!
Fan Nuoxi just smiled, freed up one hand and pinched Dongfang Junyan's face out of habit, "Then it's settled, don't coax me!"
Dongfang Junyan took the opportunity to reach out and embrace Fan Nuoxi, "It's a deal!"
……
By the way, maybe other people had made some preparations in advance or suddenly remembered something, and after eating the cake, they gave Ruochen many birthday gifts.
Ruochen gladly accepted it, but his favorite gift would have to be the one given by Fan Nuoxi, and the same was true for others.
By the time everyone returned to their rooms, it was already late at night.
Ruochen looked at the gift in the spirit ring happily, and couldn't help but talk to Wanqiu, "Wanqiu, can I see the gift Xixi gave you?"
"No." Wanqiu's whole body showed rejection.
It didn't want Ruochen to see it. What if he confiscated it all like before?
"Hmph, you stingy guy. When your master comes back, I'll go and seek justice from her." Ruochen pretended to be dissatisfied.
Wanqiu pretended not to hear and went back to her own nest yawning.
In fact, he had asked Xixi about this as early as at the banquet. Now that everyone had left, although he was happy in his heart, he still felt a little lonely, so he acted like this.
How great would it be if she were here?
Ruochen looked at Wanqiu who was gradually falling asleep, and his thoughts drifted away.
This night was destined to be an unforgettable night for everyone.
