Chapter 171 Why So Indifferent
hotel -
Li Yanyan snuggled in Gu Yuanzhou's arms, and the two watched short videos together.
With his lover in his arms, Gu Yuanzhou was filled with joy.
After a long time.
Gu Yuanzhou looked at the watch on his wrist, then said softly and gently: "Wife, it's getting late, let's go to the restaurant."
Fragrance fills the building -
At around five o'clock, Gu Yuanzhou brought Li Yanyan to Piaoxiangmanlou.
He booked a private room for her in this restaurant to celebrate her birthday.
I also ordered a three-tier cake, which will be delivered later.
The waiter took them to the private room.
The private room is very large and has entertainment facilities, including a pool table, a mahjong table, two stereos and an 85-inch TV.
The waiter told them that they could also order songs and sing.
Li Yanyan walked towards the pool table and started fiddling with it. Gu Yuanzhou stood beside her, looking at her with a smile.
Li Yanyan tried to hit the ball several times, but none of them went into the hole. She pouted and looked at the man helplessly.
"Wife, let me teach you."
Gu Yuanzhou smiled and held her hand, patiently teaching her postures and techniques.
Under Gu Yuanzhou's guidance, Li Yanyan finally scored a goal. Gu Yuanzhou praised her, "My wife is awesome."
Just then, Jiang Qing and Mo Yanchen arrived.
"Yan Yan, happy birthday!" Jiang Qing rushed over and gave her a big hug.
Then, Mo Yanchen came forward, holding a bouquet of roses in one hand and a beautiful cake in the other. He also smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, happy birthday."
"Thank you. I'm glad you came. There's no need to buy anything." Li Yanyan said politely.
"Thank you." Gu Yuanzhou took the rose.
"I've already bought the cake." Gu Yuanzhou frowned as he looked at the cake.
Mo Yanchen put the cake on the table and said, "Then let's eat more."
Jiang Qing and Li Yanyan were studying billiards together. Neither of them was very good at it, so Mo Yanchen and Gu Yuanzhou stood beside their respective lovers and taught them how to play.
After a while, Qiao Anxu and Ji Yulin finally arrived.
Each of them held a cake in their hands, and when they saw the cake on the table, they all smiled.
There were three cakes on the table.
Gu Yuanzhou held his forehead and said, "I also ordered a three-layer cake..."
Several people:"……"
"How can we finish so many cakes?" Li Yanyan was also a little helpless.
Mo Yanchen held his forehead and said, "Next time, brothers, if you want to buy a cake, tell me in advance so that others won't buy it."
Qiao Anxu and Ji Yulin nodded heavily.
Everyone arrived and the food started to be served.
Everyone raised their glasses and wished Li Yanyan a happy birthday.
After finishing a glass of wine, Ji Yulin said, "It's my sister-in-law's 21st birthday, right?"
Li Yanyan nodded.
"She got married at the age of 21 and has twin children. My sister-in-law is really amazing. She is ahead of all of us." Qiao Anxu praised.
Li Yanyan was a little at a loss. Was this a compliment or a joke?
"Ji Yulin, Qiao Anxu, you are already 28 or 29 years old, what's wrong? You still don't have a girlfriend?" Gu Yuanzhou glanced at them.
The two were speechless.
They were almost done with their meal when the cake that Gu Yuanzhou ordered arrived.
The table was cleared and the cake was placed on the table.
Li Yanyan thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we put all the cakes on the table, light the candles and blow them out."
Mo Yanchen immediately brought the cake over, and Qiao Anxu and Ji Yulin did the same. In less than a few seconds, four cakes appeared on the table.
The group began to light candles.
Light it up, then turn off the light.
Jiang Qing said: "Yan Yan, make a wish!"
Li Yanyan clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and silently made a wish in her heart.
"I wish that the babies will be healthy and grow up happily"
"Second wish, that my family and friends be happy every day, healthy, and have everlasting friendship"
"My third wish is to love and be happy with my husband forever"
After making a wish, Li Yanyan blew out the candles, and Jiang Qing blew them out with her.
The lights came on, and Gu Yuanzhou gently kissed her forehead. "Happy birthday, my wife. May you always be happy."
After cutting the cake, everyone took a piece and ate it happily.
After eating the cake, Jiang Qing took Li Yanyan to the stereo, ordered a song they were good at, and sang together.
After the song, Jiang Qing ordered a duet song for the couple to sing.
So, Li Yanyan and Gu Yuanzhou sang together affectionately.
The singing echoed in the private room, and a happy atmosphere filled the entire space.
Qiao Anxu felt empty inside after listening to this.
Yuxin went abroad and won't be back for five months.
Ji Yulin's phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was from the little girl. She had sent him several messages in a row, asking him what he was doing, whether he had time, and if she could ask him out to play. She would treat him to dinner.
He didn't reply and put his phone in his pocket.
Then he felt a little bored and opened the door to go out for a walk.
He went to the bathroom, washed his hands and walked back. At the corner, he actually ran into Qin Xueli.
Today, she wore a red midi skirt and looked stunning and beautiful.
Qin Xueli seemed surprised to see him.
"Brother Ji! Why are you here?" Qin Xueli's eyes flashed.
"I'm...having dinner with friends."
"I sent you a message, why didn't you reply?"
“I wasn’t looking at my phone.”
Qin Xueli pouted slightly, revealing a hint of coquettishness: "Brother Ji, you are really hard to contact. I thought you were deliberately avoiding me. I sent you messages but you never replied..."
As she spoke, she took a small step forward, and the pleasant smell of her perfume penetrated his nostrils.
He subconsciously stepped back, looking a little uncomfortable, and coughed lightly: "Didn't I say I was very busy recently? Why are you here? What are you doing..."
Before she finished asking, Qin Xueli rushed to answer: "Brother Ji, I originally wanted to ask you out today because it's my birthday today. My parents are celebrating my birthday in this restaurant. I didn't expect to run into you. It seems that we are quite destined to meet."
She raised her eyes and looked at him with a full gaze, her eyes full of emotions that could not be concealed.
At this moment, his heart suddenly shook, and he wondered how it could be such a coincidence.
Just as he was considering how to reply, he heard Qin Xueli speak again: "Brother Ji, since we've met, why don't you stay with me for a while and go to our private room for a drink and a piece of cake, how about that?"
She unconsciously tugged at the corners of her clothes with both hands, her eyes full of anticipation.
In the past few days, he had been sending messages to Brother Ji, hoping that he could accompany her to watch a movie and have dinner on her day, but Brother Ji always refused on the pretext of being busy. He didn't expect to meet him here today!
"I didn't expect today to be your birthday. Happy birthday to you. I won't go to your private room. You and your parents should spend this birthday well."
"Brother Ji, why are you so cold to me?" Qin Xueli looked at him with her big eyes blinking.
