"I’m not tired, but what were you just thinking about?" Lu Xingzhi looked at him strangely, noticing Huo Jincheng’s ears were a little red.
She was never curious by nature and only asked casually.
"Let’s eat the cake! I specially ordered it from my second sister-in-law’s dessert shop. But she insisted on not accepting my money. I found her shop online and it turns out her dessert shop is quite popular! She also gave a lot of snacks today. They’re really delicious."
"Did you just want to eat cake?" Huo Jincheng gently tapped her nose, "Little foodie."
Huo Jincheng enjoyed his current life. When he first t Lu Xingzhi, she was young but indeed a rather aloof girl.
He t her on her coming-of-age ceremony, which coincidentally was on Qixi Festival.
At that ti, he stood outside the door, and even now, he still rembers the wishes Lu Xingzhi made.
It inexplicably made his heart ache.
For her first wish, she hoped all her family could co back to life, knowing it was impossible, she casually said, "Then I wish for a worry-free life without money troubles!"
For the second wish, she wished for a shorter lifespan.
At that ti, she probably did not have much hope for the future.
She did not make a third wish, having no expectations.
He probably thought of these things because she ntioned the cake!
He watched her set up the cake and then light the candles.
"Uncle, co and make a wish!"
"Okay. For my first wish, I hope Zhi Zhi has a life without worries and is forever happy. For the second wish, I hope Zhi Zhi can stand on the grandest stage and shine brightly. For the third wish, I want to give it to Zhi Zhi." Huo Jincheng looked at the girl beside him with a smile.
"Why are all your wishes for ? What about your own?" Lu Xingzhi didn’t refuse and directly made her wish, "I hope Huo Jincheng has a lifeti of health, and may his wishes co true."
"You little trickster." Huo Jincheng patted her head, "Zhi Zhi, I’m very happy today. Thank you for arranging everything."
"You’ve already said not to thank you, so why are you bringing it up? This is what I should do, aren’t we in a relationship?" Lu Xingzhi didn’t see anything wrong with it.
"Hurry up and blow out the candles and cut the cake! Just by looking at it, this cake seems delicious." Lu Xingzhi had already wanted to eat it when she brought it back today.
"Okay!" Seeing Lu Xingzhi was already eager, Huo Jincheng laughed and picked up the cake knife, cutting a piece for Lu Xingzhi. "Here, little foodie."
Lu Xingzhi didn’t mind the nickna and happily started eating.
"No wonder my second sister-in-law’s dessert shop is so popular. It’s really delicious!" Lu Xingzhi felt extrely happy about it.
"Then eat a little more."
"Mhm."
After eating the cake, Lu Xingzhi wiped her mouth.
"I still have a gift for you!" She then took out a beautifully wrapped box from the cabinet.
"Zhi Zhi’s gifts co wave after wave, I can’t even keep up. It’s just too surprising." Huo Jincheng thought the piano piece was the gift, but unexpectedly, Lu Xingzhi also cooked longevity noodles and made a delicious al for him.
He thought that was enough, but who knew, she still had a gift.
He didn’t really care about her gifts; he just hoped she would care about him.
It was because he was also scared.
