Chapter Eleven Birthday Cake

"Happy birthday!" I held up the cake with both hands and said to Ling Xi who was running over.

"This is?" Looking at the cake I handed over, Ling Xi was stunned on the spot.

"Didn't you just say that you would visit it every birthday, so I guess today might be your birthday." I whispered, fearing that I was wrong, which would be a big mistake.

After looking at me for a long time, Ling Xi finally said, "Fool." Ling Xi turned away.

Fool? I gave up all the money in my wallet for it.

"Consider me meddling." I put down the cake angrily. Really, I didn't know if I could return it.

"Why should you take back what you gave me?" He hurriedly grabbed it, "I want to eat it all." Then he stood there and ate all the cake, regardless of the looks of passers-by.

I swallowed my saliva and watched him smack his mouth with satisfaction. Did he really eat it all? He didn't say anything about letting anyone go. I turned around and left unhappily, "Hey, where are you going?" Ling Xi chased after me.

.

"Find a place to eat!" I yelled at him, startling him. I rarely get so angry, but eating so much in front of a pregnant woman almost made me crazy.

.Even though he didn’t know it.

"Haha..." He looked at me interestingly, and then naturally held my hand, "For the sake of you treating me to a cake, I will take you to a big dinner."

Standing at the door of this high-end French restaurant, I hesitated and didn't dare to move forward. I quietly tugged on the corner of Ling Xi's clothes, covered my mouth and whispered, "This restaurant looks very expensive, let's go."

He can't even afford a birthday cake, so how can he have the money to eat here?

He covered his mouth like me and whispered, "Are you afraid that I don't have money?"

Although this would hurt his self-esteem a bit, I still nodded honestly, "Yeah."

"Hahaha..." Ling Xi suddenly laughed loudly, "Liu Xu, Liu Xu, I really wonder how someone like you grew up."

This is something Bai Xiuyi often says. I really don’t understand these people. I have obviously grown up successfully and am about to be a mother. Why should I still doubt my growth process?

I walked into this restaurant with heavy steps and felt like I was choking. Today I want to let you know that if you offend a pregnant woman, you will end up being poor and having sex with you.

Ling Xi shook her head in a funny way and followed me. Being careless, I didn't notice that the waiter at the door nodded as if he knew him well.

Sitting in the romantic and warm hall, I stared at the menu in front of me with a little confidence. Oh my God, every dish is ridiculously expensive, enough to cover my family's living expenses for a week. I secretly looked at Ling Xi opposite, but he was so confused.

He was flipping through the menu and asking the waiter from time to time. He didn't take the price seriously at all. After catching my gaze, he smiled handsomely and said, "Have you thought of anything to eat?"

"Ah?" When he asked me, I was a little at a loss. It was my first time to eat French food in a place like this. Who knows what I should eat?

Seeing my embarrassment, Ling Xi smiled considerately, and then closed the menu casually, "French onion soup; tuna salad; fried lobster meat..."

Looking at his skillful ordering, I really suspected that he was a regular customer here. After the waiter left, I leaned down and asked, "Do you come here often?"

He shrugged, "I don't come here often, maybe once a week. Mainly because the girls who come with me like it."

"Oh." No wonder, coming here once a week doesn't count as regular.

"What's wrong? Are you jealous when you hear another girl is with me?" Ling Xi smiled evilly and approached me.

"No." I shook my head honestly. He leaned back in his chair as if he couldn't bear it, and put his hands behind his head, "Liu Xu, you should learn to act coquettishly like a little girl and pretend to be cute."

"I'm not a little girl anymore." I said nonchalantly. I'm almost a mother now and I'm too far away from being a little girl.

"Hey, you are really good at ruining the atmosphere. I really wonder if it was a wrong decision to bring you here. I should take you to a food stall." He said angrily.

"Can I leave after ordering food?" I asked him seriously, feeling that I didn't fit in here.

"What do you think? Oh my god, I never thought that I, Ling Xi, would be with such a girl."

I frowned as I looked at the soup that was just served, "Are you trying to fill me up with water first? That's too insidious."

"This is the appetizer, it's from French cuisine... Hey, forget it, drink less, the main course will be served later." Ling Xi gave up the explanation completely and left me to fend for myself.

I don't understand the particularities of eating French food, and I no longer ask Ling Xi, who is an elegant eater, to eat whatever I want until I burp with satisfaction.

"You're not afraid that you won't have another chance to eat, so you just eat it to your death." Ling Xi thought she understood and said, "It doesn't matter. If you like it, I will bring you here again."

"I'm full, let's go." It's almost six o'clock, no matter what, we have to go back as soon as possible.

"Okay, I'll pay."

I didn’t expect that he ate thousands of dollars in one meal. This is incomparable to my small cakes worth tens of dollars. Judging from his appearance, maybe the environment is not very good, and he ate thousands of dollars in one meal.

I feel really guilty. He seems to be indifferent, and he must not want to lose face in front of me.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the restaurant, he was surrounded by several people, "Haha, Ling Xi, it's not bad. Bring the girl to eat French food."

Ling Xi frowned when she saw the person coming. "Our matter should be settled."

"Hmph, you can settle it as you say. Where will I put my face?" the leader said disdainfully, "Today I will bring a few brothers to make the final settlement with you."

Ling Xi leaned into my ear and whispered, "If a fight breaks out, you should immediately find a place to hide."

"Yeah." I nodded.
