Chapter 66(1/2)
Based on her doting on her daughter, Liu Xiaoli originally wanted to change the birthday scene to a higher-end restaurant.
But due to Liu Yifei's work, Liu Xiaoli didn't have much time to prepare for Liu Yifei's 16th birthday today.
Liu Xiaoli simply regarded the hotel suite as a venue for her daughter's birthday. Since the suite didn't look very festive, she put some thought into calling Yang Tianzhen to decorate it together.
Her daughter cried with joy because of the surprise, and Liu Xiaoli was both happy and distressed.
Haosheng comforted her daughter, and when the waiter brought the food, Liu Xiaoli invited Chu Xuan and Yang Tianzhen to sit down together.
"Mom, Brother Xuan made this birthday cake for me personally."
Liu Yifei gave a sweet smile, glanced at Chu Xuan as if she were there, and then looked at her mother with a smile.
Seeing this, Liu Xiaoli smiled slightly and said to Chu Xuan: "Chu Xuan, thank you."
Chu Xuan was startled for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, "Auntie, you're welcome."
It was obviously a very ordinary sentence, but it made Liu Xiaoli blink and look at Chu Xuan thoughtfully.
Chu Xuan was a little confused and said: "Auntie, what's wrong?"
Liu Xiaoli frowned slightly, with a smile on her face, and said: "You haven't spoken since you entered the door. Auntie feels that you are a little out of shape today."
Chu Xuan was speechless and said: "A little tired."
Liu Xiaoli nodded slightly and said: "No wonder, then go upstairs and rest early after eating some food and drinking some wine. You will still be filming tomorrow."
Chu Xuan smiled and said "hmm".
Hearing the conversation between Chu Xuan and her mother, Liu Yifei suppressed the laughter in her heart and smiled secretly: "Mom, do you know that Brother Xuan has successfully embarked on the road to becoming your real son-in-law."
Liu Yifei glanced at Chu Xuan again, with a cunning look in her eyes.
She suddenly remembered the story that Chu Xuan told her about the female devil, the witch and the knight when she was in the park today, on the bench under the tree by the lake.
However, now the female devil is right in front of her.
In the past, when Chu Xuan faced his mother, although he showed respect to his elders, he was more casual, and even his words had a lot of joking elements.
But at that moment, Chu Xuan's expression became obviously a little reserved, which made Liu Yifei smile heartily.
——Brother Xuan, you know how to be afraid!
"Sissi, come and blow out the candles and make a wish," Liu Xiaoli said with a smile.
Hearing this, Liu Yifei came back to her senses. With a playful smile on her face, she puffed up her cheeks like little buns. She bent down and blew out the sixteen candles on the cake on the table in one go. Then she straightened up and clasped her hands together.
Hold it, close your eyes and make a wish.
"Okay." Liu Yifei opened her eyes and sat down on the armchair with a smile on her face.
"What wish did you make?" Liu Xiaoli said with a smile in her eyes.
Liu Yifei secretly glanced at Chu Xuan, and then said to her mother mysteriously: "Secret."
Liu Xiaoli "tsk tsk" a few times, then smiled, and without asking any more questions, she greeted Chu Xuan and Yang Tianzhen to start eating.
However, when Liu Yifei looked at Chu Xuan who was just eating the food, she couldn't help but raise a teasing smile on her face and said: "Brother Xuan, you used to dominate the atmosphere during meals, why are you so honest today?"
Chu Xuan was stunned for a moment, knowing that the female devil was present, Liu Yifei still teased him, which was obviously intentional.
Thinking of this, the corner of Chu Xuan's mouth couldn't help but evoke a faint smile, and then he glared at Liu Yifei secretly, casting a dangerous look.
Liu Yifei was not afraid at all, she glared back at Chu Xuan with a look that was twice as dangerous.
Chu Xuan couldn't resist it and could only continue eating.
"Brother Xuan didn't sleep last night, and I played with you all day again. Aren't you tired?" Liu Xiaoli said something for Chu Xuan.
"Yes, I also made cakes all morning, and my back is sore." Chu Xuan added a sentence, raised his eyebrows and winked at Liu Yifei teasingly.
Liu Yifei pretended to be displeased, glanced at him, snorted slightly, and lowered her head to eat the food.
Liu Xiaoli didn't eat a single bite of the dish. She peeled off a prawn, dipped it in some sauce and put it into Liu Yifei's bowl. Then she took out another prawn from the plate and peeled it.
Liu Xiaoli asked with a smile: "I made cakes in the morning, where did you go in the afternoon?"
Liu Yifei was eating shrimps peeled by her mother. She had no habit of lying and almost blurted out: "Century Park."
Chu Xuan was stunned for a moment, feeling something bad in his heart.
"Century Park?" Liu Xiaoli frowned and said, "It's over 30 degrees today and the sun is so strong. Why do you want to go to the park in the afternoon? Don't you want to go to the park in the sun? If you want to go, you should go in the evening."
Liu Yifei reacted suddenly. She and her mother looked at each other and secretly said: "Oops, I spilled the beans."
"You're afraid of being exposed to the sun even if you want to take a photo, but you still go to the park on such a hot day? This is not like your style."
Liu Xiaoli knew her daughter 100%. She thought about it but couldn't find a reason why her daughter chose to go to the park to play in the scorching sun, so she felt very strange.
"Auntie, Sissi has never been to Century Park. She wants to go but is afraid of the sun. I have been there once before and know which scenic spots have shady places. After some discussion, she decided to let me take her to see the scenery. Otherwise,
It’s hard to get another chance next time.”
Chu Xuan explained to Liu Yifei with a smile on his face.
Hearing what he said, Liu Xiaoli smiled immediately and said, "Auntie, I want to thank you again. This can be regarded as fulfilling one of Sissi's wishes."
Chu Xuan shook his head and smiled: "Sissi and I are not only classmates but also my good friends. It's her birthday today, so it's right to make her happy."
Liu Xiaoli smiled, very satisfied with Chu Xuan's answer, and had no doubts in her heart.
And Chu Xuan glanced at Liu Yifei, his eyes full of helplessness, as if to say: "You spilled the beans."
Liu Yifei was eating shrimp with her head down. When she saw Chu Xuan's gaze, she arched her eyebrows, as if to say: "It's good to have you."
Liu Yifei thought about the scene just now. This was also a situation that had never happened before.
At least, her mother never questioned her.
This situation made her feel nervous at first, but until Chu Xuan solved the matter, she felt very interesting.
However, she didn't know what she thought of, Liu Yifei suddenly smiled at Chu Xuan and said: "Brother Xuan."
Chu Xuan raised his eyebrows and glanced at her.
However, Liu Yifei's sly eyes gave him a bad feeling.
"The witch and the knight danced repeatedly under the eyes of the Demon King." Liu Yifei suppressed her laughter.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xuan suddenly felt a smile in his heart, which made him laugh uncontrollably.
Chu Xuan put his left hand on the dining table, put his palm on his forehead, and kept laughing, but he couldn't laugh out loud, which was very uncomfortable.
Seeing Chu Xuan laughing, Liu Yifei couldn't help it anymore. She placed her hands on the dining table neatly, then lowered her head and lay on her hands, overjoyed.
Yang Tianzhen looked confused.
Liu Xiaoli was also stunned.
Why do I start laughing for no reason while eating?
These two people... took the wrong medicine?
Liu Xiaoli put down her chopsticks, looked at Chu Xuan, and then at her daughter, with an inexplicable smile on her face, and said: "What is going on with you?"
Hearing this, Liu Yifei raised her head, the aftertaste of laughter still lingering on her face, and said: "Mom, it's nothing, it's just that Brother Xuan and I suddenly remembered a very funny story."
Liu Xiaoli smiled and said: "What story is so funny? Tell it to your mother."
Liu Yifei shut up.
I’ve told you this, and you understand it, then the female devil won directly at the beginning, what about the witch and the knight?
Liu Yifei moved her eyes a few times and said, "This is a little fun for us young people. Mom, please don't listen to it."
Liu Xiaoli was unhappy, but the smile on her face remained, and she said, "Isn't mom young?"
Liu Yifei looked at her mother's face. She was indeed very young, but she still had a trump card, and said, "But you are over forty."
Liu Xiaoli was stunned for a moment, and her face darkened.
Chu Xuan's smile that he had finally suppressed resurfaced again, and he quietly gave Liu Yifei a thumbs up, as if to say: "Even if you dare to quarrel with her, you are still the most ruthless."
Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at her, as if to say: "I am strategically trying to dissuade my mother's curiosity. What do you know?"
"Okay, don't listen, don't listen, mom is old."
Liu Xiaoli pretended to be sad, shook her head and sighed.
Liu Yifei smiled playfully, took out a shrimp from the bowl and put it to her mother's lips, saying: "Mom is not old, she eats shrimp."
Chu Xuan raised his wine glass with a smile and said: "Auntie, you are still young, I respect you."
When the wine starts to drink, it means the atmosphere is coming.
It was a birthday party. Although there were not many people, it was still a fun time.
Especially for Liu Yifei, this year's birthday is destined to be unique and unforgettable.
Because, she, a fish who was going to go upstream alone to the bottom, met another fish and stayed with her.
Perhaps in the future, today will also be a day worth remembering for her.
Yang Tianzhen left first and needed to go to the directing team to hand over the scenes that Chu Xuan was going to shoot tomorrow.
