As soon as Chu Yao walked in, Bai Ningle put a birthday hat on his head.
Although it was a small family banquet, many people came.
Seeing the colorful balloons on the wall and the fluorescent sign that seemed to be the same as Haidilao, even Chu Yao couldn't help but reveal an awkward yet polite smile.
"Look, I said the layout is too childish. According to me, it should be minimalist! It's black and white, that's what it looks like!" Chu Mingyou said in a low voice.
"Do you use black and white for birthdays at your house?" Chu Mingxiu said helplessly.
"Yes, otherwise it would look better in blue, which is better than colorful ones." Chu Mingyou glanced at Ji Jinchen from the corner of his eye, "No, why did he bring his own clothes? I remember he was not wearing this just now. "
Pei Nian carried the three-layer cake he bought to the table. It was evening. After closing the curtains, the room was completely dark.
There were two candles "19" on the top of the cake. Chu Mingxiu picked up the prepared lighter and lit the number symbolizing Chu Yao's age.
"Remember to make a wish!" Bai Ningle whispered.
Chu Yao closed his eyes, but he could still feel the two candlelights dancing in front of his eyes.
She posed to make a wish. Although Bai Ningle had told her that she could make three wishes, she seemed to be unable to think of anything.
Whatever she wants, she will definitely get it through her own efforts.
As for the beautiful and ethereal thing like wishes, leave it to others.
She hopes that her relatives and friends will get what they want, that there will be less suffering in the world, and that...
The girl who is given a new life will also get a chance to do it again somewhere.
"call."
She gently blew out the candles and welcomed Chu Yao's nineteenth birthday.
"Happy birthday!"
The people around her said in unison.
Some people were holding fireworks tubes and couldn't wait to let the fireworks sprinkle all over her hair; some people smiled fondly and picked off the tangled fragments of her hair; some people stood a few steps away from her, watching with lingering eyes. Holding her.
Chu Mingxiu said: "Okay, let's all sit down and eat. The carefully prepared dishes will be cold after a while."
"Should we cut the cake first?" Bai Ningle asked, "I want strawberry sandwich!"
"It's really inconvenient to put the cake here, so let Yaoyao cut it by yourself." Chu Mingxiu picked up the cake knife and handed it to Chu Yao.
This cake has three layers, the theme is light green, and the sides of each layer are decorated with lily of the valley, jasmine, and hydrangea-shaped cream, just like an impressionist oil painting.
The fillings of each layer of cake are also different. The top layer is peach filling, the middle is strawberry filling, and the lower layer is matcha filling.
Chu Yao divided the top cake into two pieces, just enough for two people. She placed one plate in front of her and handed the other piece to Pei Nian.
The remaining cake was cut into four and six parts. Whoever wants to eat can get whatever flavor they want.
Although there were a few pieces left in the end, it was not enough to cause waste, and it could be used as a midnight snack later.
After eating, Chu Yao came to the pile of gifts that Chu Mingxiu had set up for her.
Here are the birthday gifts that the Chu family has received in recent days and sent to Chu Yao. Chu Mingxiu has never heard of the names of eight out of ten people among them, let alone their identities.
The sizes of the gift boxes were also all kinds of weird. He could only choose a part and put it here for Chu Yao to open with his own hands.
On the top are two envelopes, one is very delicately decorated, and the other looks like it is just wrapped in an envelope bag.
"This is..." Chu Yao opened the delicate envelope, which contained two contracts.
One of them is the transfer contract of the teahouse. Although the formation underground of the inn is solved, there is no need to dig out the ashes in other locations, and the dragon veins will gradually recover.
But Chu Yao did not stop the project to prevent long nights and nightmares.
However, this teahouse was a place they had never talked about. She did not expect that it would become her birthday gift.
"Sorry, I bought this teahouse without your permission." Ji Jinchen's eyes were warm, "I hope it is what you need."
That being said, he just observed Chu Yao's expression and knew that she must like this gift.
And Chu Yao soon figured out why Ji Jinchen could buy the chassis that Pei Hengzhi couldn't get so quickly.
There are only a few chaebols in the imperial capital, and it is unlikely that the companies that the Pei family is at odds with will also have a bad relationship with the Ji family.
If all these families are offended, who can still do business in the imperial capital?
Another contract also surprised Chu Yao. It was a cooperation contract with a boarding school in the Imperial Capital.
This school accepts children who are fatherless or physically disabled. Students can not only receive special education, but also learn a skill and find a job to make a living in the future.
The school also provides some administrative positions for adults with disabilities so that they can be self-reliant.
The special thing about this boarding school is that it can legally accept orphans and street children, and Ji Jinchen paid off the school's expenses for the next 100 years in one lump sum and obtained the naming rights of the school.
What Chu Yao needs to do is not only sign his name, but also give the school a new name.
The contents of the other envelope were much simpler. They were VIP tickets for the school graduation party performance.
Since the auditorium of Teito University cannot accommodate everyone, the only way is to draw lots. It is even more difficult to get VIP tickets. Each participating student only has two "family tickets".
The person who gave the gift was self-evident. Chu Yao looked at Song Lanruo, and she turned her head away and said, "If you are free, come and see me perform that day. If you don't have time, forget it."
"I will definitely come." Chu Yao said with a smile.
"It's my turn!" Bai Ningle took off his little box, "I personally designed this, supervised the work, and even participated in a little bit of the production!"
Inside the box is a small crown composed of two diamonds, one half of which is crystal clear and transparent, and the other half of which is pure and vivid blue. The clarity of both diamonds has reached an impeccable level.
I don’t know what kind of craftsmanship was used to connect the two diamonds. There are no gaps or modifications. It looks like a two-color diamond.
At the end of the demolition, only an inconspicuous box was left on the floor.
It didn't seem to be placed with other gifts from the beginning, and it looked very lonely.
After opening the outer wrapping paper, there is a small wooden box that looks like a jewelry box, with "The Wild Swans" in English engraved on the front.
Chu Yao unlocked the lock with the small key placed on it, and then the lid of the small wooden box popped open on its own.
Several little people holding thin strings slowly descended and landed in the simple palace, like a wooden stage play.
The production of the wooden box is very exquisite. As long as the clockwork is shaken, the characters and scenes will continue to change.
Although there are only a few scenes, it also shows a complete fairy tale.
Chu Yao groped the bottom of the wooden box with his fingers. In an inconspicuous corner, there seemed to be a letter engraved on it.
L.
At the same time, there were regular knocks on the door.
