Chapter 365 Ye Little Princess’s Birthday
“When you were celebrating your birthday, Mommy also did it grandly.”
Tong Hua’s eyes lit up brightly, and he said, “Ah, I thought of something brilliant! Mommy, turn off the light.”
He took a crystal ball from his bedroom. When Shen Qianshu switched off the light, he turned on the crystal ball’s light.
When Ye Ling came back, he was slightly puzzled. The living room’s lights were not switched on, and there were some rays of light that looked like stars being reflected on the ceiling. They looked like small stars jumping on the ceiling, and the whole ceiling became a horizon of stars.
A sweet fragrance was drifting in the air.
Shen Qianshu jumped in front of him, the starlight adorning her eyes, causing them to shine really brightly. She tiptoed, lowered his head, and lightly covered his eyes. A crisp fragrance filled the air around him, bewitching his mind.
The pair of cold eyes miraculously shut on their own accord as she had wished.
“Master, open your eyes later. There’s a surprise!”
Ye Ling was led by her, but his heart, however, felt weird. After reaching the living room, Shen Qianshu let go of his hand and shouted, “Surprise, Master!”
The whole living room was filled with stars. The ceiling and walls were all in a myriad of stars. A crystal ball was placed on the table, gently turning around. More than ten pink balloons were stuck onto one whole wall of the living room, causing the whole wall to be filled with balloons.
The ceiling was pasted with a beautiful pink flower paper. Shen Qianshu used a simple metal wire to bend it into a crescent-shaped arc, and the arc was also pasted with the pink flower paper. The two big words ‘Happy Birthday’ were hanging from the pink arc.
The dining cloth on the living room’s dining table was also changed into a pink one, and the sofa was filled with dolls. A huge birthday cake was placed on the dining table; it was bought rather last minute, so it looked barely presentable. Little Tong Hua wrote the words ‘Happy Birthday Ye Ling’ on the cake himself.
A gigantic Hello Kitty soft toy was even placed on the single sofa.
It was as if the light was filled with minuscule stars, shining in the room continuously, creating an even sweeter and beautiful atmosphere.
Both mother and son were wearing matching outfits, wearing joyous birthday hats. Little Tong Hua waved two neon light sticks lifelessly, expressing clearly that he was forced into doing this.
Shen Qianshu, however, was all smiles, and her pink and chubby face was full of joy.
This scene was really a dreamlike birthday party decoration.
Ye Ling stood rooted to the ground like he was frozen by someone.
His birthday.
Oh, right. Today was his birthday.
Early in the morning, his two younger brothers sent their greetings through text. Although they knew that he would be in a bad mood, they would still send him a birthday greeting on this day without fail for the past ten or so years. It was as if saying the greeting could actually make him feel happier.
To him, his birthday was like a nightmare.
The furious beast in Ye Ling’s blood was almost erupting. The scary beast in him was calling out, ripping up the crazy waves at the bottom of his heart and wanting to drown everything in this world. He wanted to blow up everything and bring it to hell with him, accompanying his broken and shattered life.
However, he turned around and saw Shen Qianshu’s bright and shiny eyes. That pair of beautiful eyes was filled with hope and joy like those of a child waiting to be praised, without any clue that she had just woken up a beast.
He clenched his fists.
Ye Ling, what are you thinking of doing?
Was the hurt you inflicted on her not enough?
You hurt her once, and she became scared of you for seven years. Do you want history to repeat itself?
Between him and her, there was a seven-year-long bridge of hurt. He took one step at a time, continuously repairing the scars. Right in front of him was a brand new bridge, one that went straight into her heart. How could he ruin it just like that?
