Yu Lu couldn't help but asked with concern: "Xiao Xing, why don't you speak?"
"I'm just so happy. This is the first time that so many people are celebrating my birthday with me." Yu Xing grinned.
But even though he was smiling, the loneliness in his eyes could not be hidden.
Shen Nian'an watched from the side, thinking that this little guy might still be looking forward to his father coming to celebrate his birthday with him.
No matter how good others are, they cannot compare with their own father.
"Xiao Xing is happy." The corners of Yu Lu's lips raised slightly, and her heart was full of bitterness and guilt.
After all, she is not a qualified mother.
She thought Qi Zeyun wouldn't be so cruel.
If she had given birth to the child behind his back, he would have softened his heart when he saw the child, and even felt overflowing with fatherly love.
However, it turns out that she overestimated the relationship between them.
When he saw Yu Xing for the first time, his expression changed.
Then he pulled her out and asked a lot of questions.
That was the first time she had seen such an angry Qi Zeyun, and it was also the first time she felt discouraged because of him.
"Thank you, uncle!" Yu Xing took the gift and held it in his arms with satisfaction.
"I cooked some food, let's eat together. After we finish, let's cut a cake for Xiaoxing." Yu Lu said to Qi Youhan and Shen Nian'an with a smile.
"Okay." Shen Nian'an responded.
Then, they sat down together at the table nearby.
It can be seen that Yu Lu’s craftsmanship is also very good. Every dish is full of color, flavor and taste, which makes people very appetizing.
"Sister Yu Lu, your skills are enough to make you a chef!" Shen Nian'an couldn't help but praise.
Qi Youhan also ate it and it tasted really good.
But he damnably remembered the noodles cooked by Shen Nian'an!
He has been thinking about the noodles she cooked for several months, but he still hasn't been able to eat them.
However, judging from the current relationship between the two of them, it will probably take a long time for him to eat the noodles made by Shen Nian'an.
"Actually, I didn't know anything before, but for the sake of the people I care about, I learned it, and slowly I developed the skills I have today." When Yu Lu talked about this, there was a clear flash of joy in her eyes. desolate.
A long time ago, Qi Zeyun said that her hands should have been used for photography.
But later, she gave up a good job opportunity for him and stayed in this city to accompany him.
I even learned to cook in order to take better care of him.
At that time, his favorite was the beef noodles she made.
However, her skills are getting better and better now, but he has never stayed here for another meal.
Not even a meal.
Looking back on that time and comparing it to today, I really have a feeling that things are different and people are different.
"Aunt Nian'an, if you think it tastes good, you can come over for dinner more often in the future!" Yu Xing is a person who likes fun.
If someone is with him, he won't always think about other people's homes being very lively, but there are only him and his mother in his home.
"Since you invited me like this, I won't be polite to you." Shen Nian'an gave him a bright smile.
At this time, Yu Lu looked at Qi Youhan and said politely: "Mr. Qi, you may not be used to our homely meals. Please don't mind if the hospitality is not good."
Qi Youhan curled his lips and said lightly: "No."
"Uncle, how do you usually celebrate your birthday? Do you also eat these things?" Yu Xing asked curiously.
He was doing it purely out of curiosity.
Because he knew that Qi Youhan was the kind of person that others said was extremely rich.
The wealthy people portrayed on TV usually celebrate their birthdays very grandly.
Therefore, he was a little curious whether Qi Youhan also celebrated his birthday as shown on TV.
He had no idea that his unintentional question would cause Qi Youhan to stop picking up the food.
Then, he pretended to be careless and said: "I never celebrate my birthday."
During the three years that he and Shen Nian'an were married, when Shen Nian'an wanted to celebrate his birthday, he disappeared.
On the one hand, it's because he doesn't want to see her.
On the other hand, it's because he never wants to think about his birthday.
Things like birthdays are joyful to others.
But for him, he only thinks of some bad things.
For example...his mother died on the day he was born.
To this day, he still remembers that when he was five years old, his grandparents celebrated his birthday for the first time. He sat in front of the cake and was a little at a loss.
It was at that time that Qi Yaohui rushed into the old house and slapped the cake away with one hand.
Qi Yaohui said at the time: "What kind of birthday is this? He is the broom star of our family! His life was exchanged for his mother's life! So, what is there to celebrate on his birthday? Celebrating him killed himself. Mother!"
Those words, like a curse, have always existed in his heart.
Since then, even if his grandparents wanted to celebrate his birthday, he refused.
Because for so many years, Qi Yaohui would always remind him in various ways that he was the sinner who killed his mother...
Shen Nian'an actually knew the reason why he missed his birthday.
But he didn't know that in those years, she wanted to celebrate his birthday every year, just to help him forget those bad things.
It's a pity that he didn't give her such a chance.
Nowadays, she doesn't have such an identity, let alone the thought, to do these things for him.
"Why? Isn't it just a birthday?" Yu Xing blinked his confused eyes in confusion.
Qi Youhan tried his best to smile calmly: "Yes, I just don't want to think about it."
"Okay, hurry up and eat. Why are there so many questions?" Yu Lu also knew Qi Youhan's situation, so she took the initiative to give Yu Xing a lot of food to prevent Yu Xing from talking anymore.
"Aunt Nian'an, uncle, can you take some photos with me later?" Yu Xing looked at them expectantly.
"Okay." Qi Youhan replied without raising his head.
His answer was a bit beyond Shen Nian'an's expectations.
She originally thought he would refuse.
However, maybe it’s because Yu Xing also took a photo together, right?
If he had just taken a photo with her, he probably wouldn't have agreed so readily.
"No problem." Shen Nian'an immediately replied.
Yu Xing danced happily: "Great!"
After that, he no longer even thought about eating, and began to arrange the small tie on his clothes. While arranging it, he asked: "Mom, will I look handsome like this?"
Shen Nian'an couldn't help laughing, such a young child knew how to be beautiful.
Yu Lu responded with gentle eyes: "Handsome, very handsome."
Afterwards, they took a few photos together.
They also sang happy birthday to Yu Xing, ate cake with him, and played many games with him.
After playing until about ten o'clock in the evening, the little guy couldn't hold it any longer, so he lay down on the sofa and fell asleep.
