Chapter 271 - Happy Birthday
Xiao Bing didn’t expect that, so he said: “What do you want to do? Sort me out later? Listen up, keep away from gambling, and cherish your life.”
Smitten, Luo Xiaomi said: “Brother Long, I never realized that you cared so much about me.”
Xiao Bing was disgusted by her flirtatious words, he swallowed and asked in confusion: “I have seen those men kick your brother, but not you, what’s wrong with your head?”
“I am not insane.. I just..”
Before Luo Xiaomi finished speaking, the sound of cars stepping on brakes came from outside the forest. A group of policemen rushed forward along with Wu Tian, the bodyguard in charge of protecting Luo Hao and Luo Xiaomi. The policemen were stunned when they saw the scene before them. They asked Luo Hao and his sister some general questions about the incident and handcuffed the men who were still unconscious.
The policeman in charge came to Luo Xiaomi and Luo Hao, and asked: “Miss Luo, and Childe Luo, are you okay?”
Luo Hao was lying on the ground. He said angrily: “Look at me, can’t you see I am hurt?”
The policeman said awkwardly: “We’ve also called the ambulance, they should arrived in no time, please hold on a little longer.”
Luo Xiaomi was angry too because of being interrupted by the police while talking with Brother Long. She stared at them in annoyance, then turned around before asking in surprise: “Ah, where is Brother Long going?”
Luo Hao looked around the forest and asked the same question: “Where is Brother Long going?”
When the police arrived, Xiao Bing saw the opportunity to slip away. Although what he did was more or less for a just cause, it would take him too much time to deal with the police, like recording confessions and so on. Xiao Bing was so busy nowadays that he didn’t want to waste precious time on such matters.
Having spent several hours on this incident, it would be evening before Xiao Bing reached home. But he had unexpectedly reached the middle stage of Dan Jin. So he was in a good mood now. This time he didn’t run back to Ha City. Instead he found a place where he could get running taxis and took one to Ha City.
After returning to Ha City, Xiao Bing drove his own car to Jiang City.
Because of the presence of Ye Xiaoxi and lots of friends he had met before, Xiao Bing regarded Jiang City as his second home. His first home was, naturally, the orphanage where he grew up.
Xiao Bing didn’t return to Xiao’s Mansion tonight. Before arriving home, he had told them that he would stay at Ye’s Villa tonight. At the same time, Yezi would go back there, too. Xiao Bing hoped to have a good time with his girl.
Presently, Ye’s Villa still employed security guards and servants. Though basically Yezi seldom stayed here, she couldn’t leave the villa unattended just to economize.
Nowadays everyone in the Ye Family knew that Xiao Bing was the host, and Ye Xiaoxi was the hostess. When Xiao Bing entered the villa, everyone would say: “Good evening, Mr. Xiao.”
He responded with a smile, but felt a little confused, because the whole villa was dark inside. It was exactly 8:00 PM. Maybe Yezi had gone to bed.
So he walked upstairs as quietly as a mouse. He opened the door to Yezi’s room and entered silently. With a grin, he jumped into bed. But he felt nothing but a quilt there.
Xiao Bing immediately got off the bed to turn the light on. Strangely, the room was empty. Didn’t Yezi come back from Xiao Mansion? Can’t be! He had indeed called Yezi to confirm it upon arriving Jiang City.
Then Xiao Bing became worried. So many things had happened recently. Could she be in trouble?
He rushed out of the room, seeing a maid on her way downstairs, he asked her: “Did you see Yezi come back?”
The maid shook her head, then she nodded.
Xiao Bing was confused: “So what do you mean by shaking and nodding? Did you see her or not?”
The maid answered: “I have no idea.”
Xiao Bing sighed and acknowledged her with a wry smile. Then he hurried downstairs. It was dark there, too. But when he rushed to the first-floor hall and was about to turn on the lights, bright lights and music suddenly came on. Yezi walked out of the dining room pushing a trolley with a cake on it. She was also singing along with the music: “Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to you....”
Xiao Bing was stupefied, all the servants in the villa joined her one by one to sing the birthday song.
Pushing the cake trolley before Xiao Bing, Yezi looked at him cheerfully and said: “Brother Bing, happy birthday!”
Stunned, Xiao Bing pointed to himself and asked: “My birthday?”
“Absolutely, I saw your ID Card. Today is your birthday. I especially committed it to memory.”
Xiao Bing was very touched. Since leaving the orphanage, there had been no one to celebrate birthdays with him. His eyes moistened. As he looked at this witty girl who was really like an angel, he felt he should have been the one to think of and care for her, yet now..
Yezi smiled slyly: “What’s the matter? Are you touched? Don’t be overwhelmed. Remember, I’m your girl.”
Suddenly everyone around them said: “Kiss, kiss....” The servants were gathered at the doorways of the villa, the dining room, and stairs. They shouted happily and watched with smiles.
Yezi had always been very kind to her servants since little, so everyone from the servants to the bodyguards had great affection for her. Now they were so glad that Yezi has finally found a mate for herself and she didn’t have to support such a big family on her own any more. They all hoped that Yezi could be married to Xiao Bing as soon as possible.
Xiao Bing looked embarrassed, but Yezi raised her head, looking at him as though nobody was watching. Her tender and smiling eyes stirred Xiao Bing’s heart. In the dim light, Yezi looked so charming that nobody could resist her beauty.
Xiao Bing said to himself, “If Yezi herself doesn’t care, why should I?”
Then he kissed her without any hesitation.
Both of them were immersed in this romantic moment, which seemed to last for an eternity.
Finally, they came apart. Applauses and whistles broke out around them. After that the servants left silently, leaving the whole hall to the sweet couple.
Yezi blushed a little. Xiao Bing teased her cheerfully: “What? You feel shy now?”
Yezi gave him a charming smile: “You only dare to tease me when nobody is around.”
Ye Xiaoxi giggled when she saw Xiao Bing at a loss for words.
Watching Yezi’s happy face, Xiao Bing was happy, too, though in an awkward manner. He said adoringly: “I don’t know why, but every time I am with you, I get so nervous, and feel like I love you more and more.”
Yezi blushed, and said tenderly: “You always say the sweetest things.”
“They may be sweet words, but they are words from my heart.” Xiao Bing held Yezi in his arms and said tenderly: “If I could hold you like this for ever, that would be so good.”
“Silly, you are a man, you have your business and your undertakings. I can’t be the one who hinders you. Come on, let’s taste the cake.”
“Okay.” On the cake were two lovers holding hands and five words, “Happy Birthday to My Husband.”
Xiao Bing smiled: “Sooner or later, I will be your lawfully wedded husband.”
“I can’t wait for that day to come.” Yezi’s eyes was full of expectation. If it were not for the continuous outbreak of family troubles, maybe they would have long been together instead of waiting like this. But that day would not be too far away.
“Come on, let’s cut the cake.” Xiao Bing cut the cake into several pieces. Suddenly, with a twinkle in his eye, he smeared a small patch of cream on Yezi’s nose.
Yezi gave a yell as she jumped in surprise. She then took a piece of cake and rushed toward Xiao Bing. They ran and chased each other happily around the hall.historical
After failing to catch him, Yezi shouted angrily: “Stop, stop running, I can’t get to you.”
Xiao Bing laughed loudly: “I won’t run if you don’t chase after me.”
“Humph!” Yezi stopped chasing, which puzzled Xiao Bing. He looked back at Yezi.
She was looking at Xiao Bing triumphantly. Then she crooked her cute finger at him and said with a pursed mouth: “Come here now.”
Xiao Bing smiled helplessly.
“One.”
“Two.”
Xiao Bing obeyed her and got close to her. He held her slim waist in his hands and said fawningly: “My dear wife, don’t be angry.”
“I won’t if you stopped resisting and let me smear the cake on your face.”
“Okay, okay, I promise.”
“Good, that’s my boy. Now let me help you decorate your face.” With these words, she got a bit of cream and started to smear it on his face. Xiao Bing looked awkward and embarrassed. He pleaded: “My little darling, could you please let me go? You’ve about decorated enough.”
“No way.” With smiling eyes, Yezi continued drawing. Only when it was almost done, she said with a tender smile: “Now look at yourself in the mirror.”
Xiao Bing hurried to the bathroom and looked into the mirror. Wow, he looked totally like a tabby cat.
Looking at Xiao Bing’s expression in the mirror, Yezi couldn’t stop giggling.
