I Hate You, Devil!-Chapter 271 Happy birthday
Chapter 271 Happy birthday
Yu Chen and Xiaolei along with their men went straight to Yu residence. Old man Yu had prepared a party to celebrate Yu Chen's birthday that was only exclusive for the family's close friends.
Xiaolei had originally planned to prepare the banquet in Scarlet Hill but because of the old man, she relented and helped him with the preparations instead. Old man Yu told her that Yu Chen never came back home during his birthdays that the old man didn't even get any chance to greet him happy birthday in person. He told her that Yu Chen had an unpleasant childhood so he grew up without caring about things like birthdays.
The things that the old man revealed made Xiaolei felt hurt. She remembered when Yu Chen sneaked inside their house to celebrate her birthday when they were young. Thinking about all those, Xiaolei told the old man to surprise him. They both wanted to give him a simple but memorable birthday so they worked together.
As soon as they entered the door of the large mansion, they welcomed him with confetti as they sang a happy birthday song.
There were only a small group of people inside. Old man Yu, the twins, the Chens and their wives along with little Shin and the rest were their body guards. Juu and Kyuu were also there.
The Yus don't have relatives and they don't have that many friends. The old man, of course, had many friends but he didn't invite them because he knew that Yu Chen won't like them around.
Yu Chen was obviously surprised. He expected that they were going to celebrate his birthday when their car headed in the family's residence, but he didn't expect something like this. He really didn't know how to feel about this but he was glad to see everyone gathered here like this.
"Happy birthday daddy." The twins came and held his hand. They pulled him towards the long table and made him sat on the chair at the head of the table.
Delicious foods were already served. As everyone took their seat, Yu Chen thanked the Chens for coming.
At that moment, Yu Chen finally noticed that his wife disappeared. He looked around and was about to ask when to his surprise, he saw Xiaolei walking towards him with a cake in her hand.
She was smiling wide as she walked closer towards him.
Yu Chen slowly stood and faced his wife. His eyes were darting back and forth between his wife's face and the lit candle on top of the cake.
"Happy birthday Yu Chen." Xiaolei said, her eyes brimming in happiness as she lifted the cake. "This might not be the prettiest and most delicious cake out there but I baked this with all my love." She grinned at him and Yu Chen struggled to stop himself from hugging her. His heart was starting to overflow with happiness and he really didn't know how to express what he felt. He didn't know how to show her how happy he was.
"Blow the candle and make a wish." She told him, still with her brightest smile. Everyone fell silent as they watched them.
Of course, a certain someone who had just arrived from his mission immediately brought out his beloved camera and started his documentation.
Yu Chen looked pretty overwhelmed. Everyone knew that this was his first time celebrating a birthday so they were having fun waiting for his reaction. However, as expected, the man was talking too long to process everything. He was like a lagging computer.
But everyone was patient. Xiaolei didn't hasten him either and just smiled at him.
Finally, the man snapped from his frozen state and he opened his lips.
"Xiaolei… can you blow the candle with me?" he asked, surprising Xiaolei and everyone.
"I want to make a wish with you." he added and Xiaolei bit her lips. This man just won't stop melting her already melted heart.
"Okay." She agreed as they locked their deep gazes at each other.
"Mommy, daddy, we will count for you. At the count of three, you both will blow the candle." Little Ran suggested and the couple agreed.
"1… 2…. 3!"
Xiaolei and Yu Chen blew the candle and as the white smoke goes up, they stared at each other, lamenting their wishes silently inside their hearts.
…
The party was lively. Little Ranran and Little Rui finally met the little prince of the Chens and three kids looked like they were getting along very well.
Xiaolei spent a good time with her sisters, Davi and Hinari, with Hinari busy advising her about the best present she could give to her husband tonight. Although, Xiaolei had already decided about that even if Hinari didn't suggest it.
Of course, the same thing was happening in the other group. The group of husbands were talking about something like that as well. Sei was just silent or nodding the whole time while Zaki did all the talking. He was telling Yu Chen to ask her his present. Even telling him that it was time for him to finally become bold and act like a real husband.
"I am already planning to do that without you telling me." Yu Chen confidently told Zaki and the man's lips curved up in amusement.
"Well, that's good to hear but, it's still just a plan until now. Put it in action." He teased, causing Yu Chen to look away and looked at his wife, smiling while talking to her friends.
Very soon, the party had ended pleasantly. They didn't serve alcohols that night to consider the three men who wasn't allowed to drink so the party ended pretty early.
The Chens were the first to leave, with little Shin leaving a promise that he will visit the twins again next time. Zaki also left a meaningful and encouraging wink for Yu Chen before they finally left.
The couple then faced their little buns and was about to tell them that they will stay with their grandpa tonight when,
"Mommy, daddy, we will stay here from now on for a while. You guys are busy in the coming days too, right? We will stay with grandpa so you two go back without us." Little Rui said and the couple looked at each other.
"O-okay, behave and don't make trouble for grandpa okay? We will visit you often." Xiaolei told them and the twins nodded as they hugged her.
They also hugged their father and little Ran secretly whispered in the man's ear, "Daddy, we're not going back to Scarlet Hill until you give us our baby sister."
