Chapter 669: Okay, Fine, Daddy Will Help You Realize Your Wish
Gu Mang said calmly, “It’s alright.”
Since the beginning of school, Meng Jinyang had spent her weekends reading in the school library before fully understanding all the subjects she was studying.
She smiled and said softly, “It should be fine.”
Lu Chengzhou and Gu Mang drank some alcohol. Jiang Shenyuan had to drive later, so he drank tea. Meng Jinyang drank for the first time. After drinking a glass, she felt a little tipsy. Jiang Shenyuan stopped her when she wanted to continue.
The group chatted casually in the restaurant as they finished their meal.
It was around 9.30pm.
Jiang Shenyuan pointed his chin at the birthday cake on the coffee table to the side. “Cut the cake and then we’ll eat it.”
“The cake is mine.” Lu Chengzhou had no expression on his face when he said that. He leaned in his chair in his usual casual posture with his dark eyes half-closed. “Lawyer Jiang, it’s getting late.”
In other words, he meant, “Don’t even think about it. Scoot off, quickly.”
Gu Mang glanced at him when she heard him. The corners of her lips curled up.
Fine, if you say it’s personal, then it is.
It was his birthday today.
Meng Jinyang wanted to laugh too, but she didn’t know Lu Chengzhou too well, so she held back.
Seeing that Gu Mang did not say anything, Jiang Shenyuan tutted and turned to Meng Jinyang. “Let’s go, there should be a dessert shop still open nearby. Let’s not eat theirs. Brother Jiang will treat you.”
The corner of Meng Jinyang’s lips twitched.
…
After sending the two of them off, Lu Chengzhou shut the door. He put his arms around Gu Mang’s shoulders and walked towards the sofa. Just after sitting down, Lu Chengzhou’s phone vibrated and he picked it up. It was a message from Gu Si accompanied by a red packet.
Lu Chengzhou raised his eyebrows and turned to Gu Mang. “What is he doing?”
If Gu Si could send a message to Lu Chengzhou despite his busy schedule, Lu Chengzhou had to be cautious in case it said “Happy Death Anniversary”.
Lu Chengzhou was quite afraid that the red packet Gu Si had sent him contained a virus to hack his phone.
Gu Mang leaned against him and tapped on the red envelope expressionlessly.
“0.26 yuan.”
He also added a sticker showing contempt. Old_man_is_getting_older.jpg.
Gu Si reminded Lu Chengzhou of how old he was in the cheapest way and even insulted him.
Gu Mang tilted her head against Lu Chengzhou’s shoulders and laughed, her shoulders shaking.
Lu Chengzhou suddenly felt that Gu Si might as well have just hacked his phone.
Looking at Gu Mang, who was still laughing in his arms, Lu Chengzhou asked with a serious look, “Am I really that old?”
Gu Mang’s eyes were very happy. “Yeah, a little.”
He pinched her chin and stared at her firmly. After a while, he laughed as well. “Fine, so be it.”
Gu Mang opened her mouth. Just as she was about to say something, Lu Chengzhou said something first.
“Although I’m old,” he paused. When he spoke, he dragged his tone. “Did I not serve you well? Huh?”
Gu Mang was speechless. Lu Chengzhou pressed her soft, red lower lip with his fingers. They were very close to each other.
His low and husky voice was in her ears. “Young lady, you are quite heartless.”
Gu Mang stopped smiling and went silent for a few seconds. Then he pulled his hand down while she pointed her chin at the cake and said blankly, “I’m going to take a shower. Finish your cake.”
Lu Chengzhou held her by her shoulders and did not let her move away. He smiled, “I may be old, but we still have to follow procedure. Won’t you watch me make a wish?”
Gu Mang narrowed her eyes. “Make a wish?”
Lu Chengzhou nodded. With a serious look, he continued, “I take rituals seriously.”
Gu Mang didn’t know what he wanted to do, but since it was his birthday, she hooked his chin and said, “Okay, fine, Daddy will help you realize your wish.”
Lu Chengzhou smiled with a meaningful look in his eyes. They sat on the carpet in an intimate position.
Lu Chengzhou removed the cake from the box and saw the candle with the number “26” on it.
He inserted the candle and lit it with a lighter.
Then Gu Mang heard a very serious speech from him. “I’d like to try the bathroom tonight.”
After speaking, he blew out the candles.
Gu Mang recalled what she had just said previously and said nothing.
Lu Chengzhou turned to Gu Mang and smiled wildly, “Help me. Realize it.”
…
Gu Mang leaned against Lu Chengzhou’s shoulders, exhausted as she was carried out of the bathroom. Her eyes were a little red. Lu Chengzhou held her with one hand and pressed his palm against the back of her neck.
The bite marks on the man’s collarbone were obvious. There were also several scratch marks on his shoulders. Lu Chengzhou placed her on the bed gently.
Gu Mang was soft all over and she had no energy at all. She squinted at the wall clock and couldn’t hold back from scolding him. “Are you a beast?!”
“Yeah, I am.”
Gu Mang was speechless.
Lu Chengzhou pulled away the hair sticking to her face. The refreshing smile on his face was quite an eyesore. “Are you satisfied with my service?”
Gu Mang tilted her head and shut her eyes.
Lu Chengzhou laughed softly and kissed her by her eyes. “Don’t fall asleep yet, your hair is still wet.”
Gu Mang ignored him. Lu Chengzhou poked her face, then he got up and poured her a glass of water for her. Then, he used the hairdryer to dry her hair.
Gu Mang was really exhausted. She rested on his lap and let him do whatever he pleased.
