Chapter 671: Princess’ Birthday
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The weather today was very good. The blue sky and the ocean formed a straight line. Although it was summer, the island was located at the edge of the middle latitude sea. The warm sea climate allowed it to maintain a pleasant temperature all year round.
Froma distance, the island looked small, but it took the ship a long time to reach it. The closer they got, the more they realized that the island was actually huge.
There were more than two thousand acres of land on the island, and it was filled with roses.
It was different from the roses that filled the manor last time. The roses on the island were in full bloom and covered the green leaves, overwhelming the entire island.
“Wow, it’s so beautiful!!” This was Xiao Bao’s first time here. When he saw the sea of flowers, he ran forward excitedly.
“Here?” Xia Wanyuan looked at Jun Shiling in surprise.
She liked roses called pink lovers. They were beautiful in color and didn’t have any smell. She didn’t like flowers with overly strong fragrance.
These two thousand acres of flowers were all pink lovers. When did they start planting them?
“I started preparing three months ago.” Jun Shiling held Xia Wanyuan’s hand and walked into the island.
Three months ago, this was the first time he and Xia Wanyuan had gone out alone. On that mountaintop, he saw that Xia Wanyuan liked pink roses so much. The next day, he had Lin Jing book an entire manor of roses for her.
Other than that, he also got someone to buy this island and transported rose seedlings from all over the world. After being specially nurtured for nearly three months, he finally managed to make all the roses bloom at this time.
In the middle of the endless sea of flowers was a transparent villa. The servants were lined up at the door, waiting for Jun Shiling and the rest.
After dinner, Jun Shiling dragged Xia Wanyuan to bed. It was only eight in the evening.
“Tm not tired.” Xia Wanyuan usually did not sleep at this time.
“Sleep for a while. If you’re not tired, are you thinking of doing something else?” Jun Shiling looked at Xia Wanyuan meaningfully.
“Tm sleepy.” Xia Wanyuan immediately closed her eyes.
Jun Shiling smiled and gently patted Xia Wanyuan’s back. After coaxing her to sleep, he slowly removed his arm from her neck and left the bedroom quietly.
Outside the door, Xiao Bao was leaning against the wall. Jun Shiling put his index finger between his lips and Xiao Bao immediately softened his movements. He carefully pulled Jun Shiling’s hand and went downstairs.
Although Xia Wanyuan did not feel sleepy, she was still exhausted from the long journey. She slept until almost twelve.
Xia Wanyuan subconsciously rolled to the side, but she could not hug Jun Shiling. She fumbled to turn on the lamp beside her, but there was no sign of Jun Shiling on the bed.
At this moment, the door opened and Jun Shiling walked in. “You’re awake?”
“Where have you been?”
Jun Shiling did not answer Xia Huanyuan. He took out a knitted jacket from the wardrobe and put it on Xia Wanyuan before pulling her out.
The entire room was dark and it was pitch black outside. Xia Wanyuan subconsciously gripped Jun Shiling’s hand tightly.
Afraid that she would fall, Jun Shiling carried her down the stairs.
It was dark outside the villa, but after walking for a while, her eyes gradually adapted to the darkness. Now, she could see the stars in the sky.
“Close your eyes first. I’l let you open them later.”
Hearing Jun Shiling’s words, Xia Wanyuan closed her eyes. Jun Shiling carried her forward.
After some time, Jun Shiling placed Xia Wanyuan on a stool.
“Mommy, open your eyes.” Xia Wanyuan threw herself into a vanilla-scented embrace. She opened her eyes and saw Xiao Bao’s grape-like eyes.
“Look!” Xiao Bao pointed upwards.
Xia Wanyuan looked up and discovered that they were in a transparent glass room.
Meanwhile, the entire island was blooming with fireworks.
Huge fireworks shot into the sky from all directions on the island, sparkling and dazzling everywhere.
Xia Wanyuan looked at it for a while. An envelope was stuffed into her hand.
“Mommy.” Xiao Bao’s eyes sparkled. “Happy birthday! I love you the most. This is a gift I prepared for you. You have to look at it secretly. You can’t let Daddy see it.”
As Xiao Bao spoke, he stole a glance at Jun Shiling. When he saw Jun Shiling’s dark face, he immediately hid beside Xia Wanyuan.
“Birthday?” Xia Wanyuan suddenly remembered that today was August 9th. It was indeed my birthday. I had been too busy recently and had forgotten about it. No wonder Jun Shiling had brought me here today.
“Yes, Mommy, you’re so stupid.” Xiao Bao held Xia Wanyuan’s hand, his eyes full of attachment.
utting the envelope away, Xia Wanyuan kissed Xiao Bao on the cheek. “Thank you, Xiao Bao.”
After being kissed by Xia Wanyuan, Xiao Bao blinked his eyes in embarrassment. Ignoring Jun Shiling’s warning gaze, he pointed at his right cheek. “Mommy, my right cheek wants one too.”
Xia Wanyuan smiled and planted a kiss on his right cheek. Xiao Bao was elated.
Before Xiao Bao could push his luck and climb onto Xia Wanyuan’s lap, Jun Shiling pulled him aside.
Seeing Jun Shiling holding Xiao Bao in the air again, Xia Wanyuan gave Jun Shiling a reproachful look. “Be gentle, don’t drop him.”
“He won’t fall. He has thick skin,” Jun Shiling said nonchalantly.
Xiao Bao looked down at his fair and tender arms and was very unconvinced. “How am I thick-skinned!”
However, Xiao Bao’s protest was ignored by Jun Shiling.
Jun Shiling handed Xia Wanyuan a jewelry box.
Xia Wanyuan took it. Inside lay a pair of shiny rings. Xia Wanyuan’s heart skipped a beat. She wanted to take the ring out, but Jun Shiling stopped her.
“Let me do it.” Jun Shiling took the jewelry box and took out a smaller ring, carefully putting it on Xia Wanyuan. Xia Wanyuan took the other one and helped Jun Shiling put it on his ring finger.
Jun Shiling held Xia Wanyuan’s hand. The diamond on the ring reflected a brilliant light.
“Happy birthday.” Jun Shiling pointed at his watch.
The clock and the needle on it coincided and pointed to 12.
Xiao Bao also came over and put his little hand between them. “Mommy, I love you.”
Although Jun Shiling didn’t say anything, his eyes said everything.
“Blow out the candles.” Jun Shiling opened the cake box on the table. There were 22 candles on the cake.
The fireworks outside kept blooming.
In the glass room, the three of them enjoyed the sweet cake peacefully. They could not hear anything through the glass, but the warmth around them continued to overflow, and the stars in the sky seemed to become brighter because of them.
At this time in China, just as the sun rose, the door to Xiu Yi was kicked open.
“Where’s your boss? Get out here!”
