Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The weather was getting colder and colder. In the blink of an eye, it was winter and the outside world was already covered with snow. The house was warm, and Jing Yao didn’t want to go out anymore.
The trees in the courtyard were already wrapped in a thick layer of tree bark. The succulents in the corner of the garden had also been moved indoors and placed on the enclosed balcony.
Jing Yao could see them at home every day and didn’t have to go out anymore.
Because Jing Yao’s stomach was getting bigger, Liang Xun simply discussed with Auntie Li and let her stay at home so that it would be easier to take care of Jing Yao. lie was also working hard because there were only two months left until Jing Yao’s due date.
Now that Jing Yao was pregnant, Liang Xun felt his heart skip a beat no matter what she did.
She was also uneasy and worried all day at work.
December 12th happened to be the weekend. It was Liang Xun’s birthday.
In the past, he would go home for his birthday. Sun Jia would hold a birthday banquet for him. It was not luxurious, but it had to be lively.
However, Liang Xun rejected her this year. He didn’t even call Zhu Sui and the others on such a cold day. He just wanted it to be simple and be with Jing Yao.
With so many people around, they did not even have much time alone.
Moreover, it was snowing and it was inconvenient to drive over in such weather. This reason was simply impeccable. His friends knew his true thoughts, but they could not be bothered to expose him. After all, the birthday boy was the most important. It was better to listen to him today.
Jing Yao looked out of the door many times this morning. Seeing this, Liang Xun asked in confusion, “Yaoyao wants to go out?”
Jing Yao shook her head. She felt inexplicably cold when she saw the snow-covered world outside. If she went out now, she would definitely freeze into ice.
Liang Xun smiled. “Then what are you looking at?”
Jing Yao looked at Liang Xun suspiciously. “Liang Xun, have you forgotten what day it is today?”
Liang Xun raised his eyebrows. “What day?”
Jing Yao’s face darkened slightly. Because of her psychological barrier, the people around her always said that she paid too little attention to herself, but she felt that Liang Xun’s situation was more serious than hers.
Liang Xun was especially concerned about her and did not care about his own matters.
“Don’t tell me you forgot your birthday?” Jing Yao frowned.
Liang Xun said softly, “I didn’t forget. I remember.”
Jing Yao sized up Liang Xun. “Liang Xun, you told me back then that we celebrated our birthday not because we wanted a gift, but because this is a very important day. It’s to commemorate the life we obtained many years ago today and let us learn to respect our lives. Why don’t you care at all now?”
Liang Xun was amused and touched. He hugged Jing Yao and lowered his voice. “So Yaoyao still remembers what I said back then, and she remembers it so clearly? This is indeed a very important day, but I just want to spend this very important day with Yaoyao.”
Jing Yao’s face was slightly hot. “Aren’t you going to invite your friends?”
Liang Xun said firmly, “No. It’s rare for us to have such free time. Can’t it just be the two of us?”
Jing Yao was speechless.
Although Liang Xun did not invite anyone, he still received many calls.
His relatives and friends called one after another. Liang Xun curled up on the sofa with Jing Yao in his arms and looked at the fine snowflakes outside the window as he answered the calls.
Seeing that he was still asking Jing Yao on a whim, she asked, “Yaoyao, do you think the snow will be thick tomorrow and the car won’t be able to drive out? That way, I won’t have to go to work.”
Jing Yao was speechless. She didn’t know how to evaluate Liang Xun’s mentality. Usually, only children would think that way.
The adults felt that the weather was troublesome, but the children were secretly happy. For example, it was snowing heavily and there was a typhoon because they didn’t have to go to school.
No matter how good their grades were, children did not want to go to school. “If you don’t go to work, are we going to starve to death?” Jing Yao said calmly. Liang Xun was stunned for a moment before he laughed uncontrollably. “Yaoyao’s eloquence is getting better. Don’t worry, she won’t starve to death. I’ve already thought of a way.”
“What?” Jing Yao looked at Liang Xun in confusion.
Liang Xun raised his eyebrows at her. He took out his cell phone with one hand and dialed a number. He put his index finger on Jing Yao’s lips with the other, indicating for her not to speak.
The call went through and Mr. Liang’s impatient voice sounded on the other end. “What do you want to say?”
Liang Xun said calmly, “It’s my birthday today..”
