She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment Ⅱ - Chapter 1500

Chapter 1500: He Is My Son (73)

After Mo Xicheng walked out of the private room, he headed home.

Driving along the way, he thought of Liu Liu again.

Liu Liu had been the first friend he had had after joining the show business, as he started his career.

He remembered how devastated the man had been when he was forced to leave the country. He recalled the day about a year later, when he received the call from the overseas lawyer saying that the late Liu Liu had left everything to him, and the shock he had felt when he was told the man had taken his life.

He lowered his gaze and wound down the car window.

The wind came in.

There was something in the heat of the summer wind that made one restless.

He turned to look out of the car window, at the glittering lights, suddenly feeling a tinge of regret.

If at the time he had been able to stand up on his own and help avenge Liu Liu, would the man have found some hope in life again, and not take such a drastic measure?

Mo Xicheng choked with emotions. Soon, he arrived home.

“CEO Mo, we’ve arrived.”

He looked up to glance at the villa building and then nodded at his assistant. “Take the car with you, pick me up for work tomorrow.”

The assistant immediately nodded and said, “Roger.”

Mo Xicheng got out of the car and opened the front door of the villa. As he stepped in, he realized the house was brightly lit.

He froze momentarily, as though remembering something suddenly. Hastening his steps, he pushed the door open and walked through the doorway.

The moment the door was pushed open, a small birthday cake appeared before him. He lifted his gaze and saw Shi Nianyao holding the cake. She tilted her head and grinned at him. After he got into the house, she started singing, “Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you!”

In that heartwarming moment, the melancholy and loneliness he had felt a moment ago vanished at once.

He lowered his head to look at the cake and an unconscious smile spread across his face. He asked, “How did you know it’s my birthday today?”

Shi Nianyao stuck out her tongue at him. Placing the cake on the coffee table, she replied, “What don’t I know about you? Today is your birthday on the solar calendar. I know that you have a fan-meeting event on your lunar birthday and I may not be able to celebrate it with you then. So I’m celebrating with you today!”

Mo Xicheng nodded and slid his jacket off. He went to wash his hands and, upon his return, he noticed that Shi Nianyao was looking at him with bright and sparkling eyes. She pointed at the cake and asked, “Is it pretty?”

Mo Xicheng lowered his gaze and looked at the cake. It was decorated with a border of roses and had the words “Happy Birthday Mo Xicheng” on it.

It was a normal birthday cake, but seeing the excitement and anticipation in the girl’s eyes, he said, “Yes, it’s pretty.”

“Really?” she asked. Then she proudly proclaimed, “I made this myself!”

He was stunned and repeated, “Made it yourself?”

Shi Nianyao nodded immediately and said, “Uh huh. But these modern cake recipes are really difficult to master! I tried all day and you have no idea how many I’ve destroyed before I got this right. Hahaha, I think it’s pretty too.”

After saying all of that, she led Mo Xicheng to the sofa and made him sit down. Then she said, “Alright, birthday boy, now you can make a wish and blow out the candles!”

These words warmed his heart. Nodding and closing his eyes, he made a wish. With one blow, he turned off the lit candles.

When he looked up again, he saw her eyes sparkling as she asked, “What did you wish for?”
