Chapter 4025: A Perfect Match (22)
At 2am, the freshly baked cake emerged from the oven a success. Yun Shishi had whipped fresh cream, along with strawberry cream and jam.
Youyou got up in the middle of the night and vaguely heard the noise made by Yun Shishi. Perplexed, he made his way to the kitchen, and saw his mother using the back of a knife to smooth cream on the cake.
He watched, fascinated. She was so engrossed in making the cake that she did not notice the boy standing in the doorway. The boy couldn’t bear to disturb her. He watched her as she went from smoothing the cream to decorating the cake. Bit by bit, the sliced strawberries were placed decoratively on the cream. He was about to return to his room when he heard the surprised voice behind him.
“Youyou?”
He glanced back, a little stunned, and saw Yun Shishi turning to look in his direction. He knew he’d been spotted and stuck out his tongue in annoyance.
“It’s late. Why aren’t you in bed?”
The boy replied, “I got up to go to the toilet.”
“Did you go?”
…..
The boy said, “I forgot.”
Stunned for a brief moment, Yun Shishi laughed aloud, pinched his cheek and said, “Hurry up and go to the toilet!”
“I want a kiss from Mommy.”
“Once you’ve gone to the toilet.”
“A kiss first and then I’ll go to the toilet.” The little lad leaned his face forward insistently.
With an air of resignation, she pecked him on his tender cheek.
The young child quickly turned the other side of his face towards her and grunted in anticipation. “Here.”
“Okay, okay. It has to be balanced, right?”
Yun Shishi kissed him on the other cheek, and he kissed her back before heading for the toilet.
She watched him walking away, with her head cocked to one side. For some reason, the boy had become quite close and clingy these days. In the past, if she had missed giving him a goodnight kiss, he would never have specially gone to her to ask for it. The boy had certainly been acting strangely lately.
Still, it shows he’s become cheerful. Comforting herself, Yun Shishi carefully placed the cake in the refrigerator and retired to her room.
There were not many of them at the birthday banquet the next day. Gong Jie did not come, and Hua Jin was filming on set. It was a simple birthday party for the family of six.
Nevertheless, this was the boy’s wish. Because it was just a make up birthday party, he didn’t want to make a big deal out of it. The whole point of it was because he had never celebrated a birthday with Little Yichen. They were twins, born on the same day, yet he never had a chance to celebrate his birthday with him, so he wanted to make up for it.
When Yun Shishi brought out the finished birthday cake she’d specially stayed up to bake, the boy was pleasantly surprised.
She went out of her way to explain. “That’s what Youyou said. He wanted a homemade birthday cake baked by me. On the other hand, this cake is the most successful I’ve ever made. If it hadn’t been for Youyou, I might not have tried baking it.”
Little Yichen was envious and jealous at the same time. “Thanks to Youyou, otherwise I won’t know when I’ll get to eat a birthday cake baked by Mommy!”
Mu Yazhe remarked solemnly. “Only Youyou and Yueyao have that sort of privileges at home.”
“That really sounds like sour grapes coming from the two of you!”
Youyou mumbled, “This is envy and jealousy.”
Little Yichen laughed aloud at that. “Yeah, Daddy’s jealous. Me too. We don’t have that privilege.”
