Chapter 654 Happy Birthday
Although Huo Chenhuan had been invited to Cheng Junhao’s company to deliver the doc.u.ments, it wasn’t easy for him to do so.
Cheng Junhao’s higher-ups tried their best. Although they had tried their best to buy time for their boss, they were still unable to keep him here for long.
Huo Chenhuan rushed back to the Cheng residence in less than an hour.
Even so, night had almost fallen by the time he reached home.
Huo Chenhuan furrowed his eyebrows when he saw that the room was dark and there was no light at all. He sensed that something was wrong.
Was everyone out, or… Confused and wary, Huo Chenhuan walked into the hall and was about to turn on the lights.
The lights in the room lit up first. At the same time, beautiful ribbons and confetti flew towards Huo Chenhuan and covered his head.
Huo Chenhuan subconsciously reached out to block it, his expression solemn and confused.
He took a closer look and realized that there were many people in the house. Many of them were still holding onto the colorful streamers that they had yet to put away. The culprits who had popped the confetti at him earlier were these guys. In front of them was a table full of sumptuous dishes and a beautiful three-layered cake.
“You all….”
Before Huo Chenhuan could finish his sentence, everyone shouted happily, “Happy birthday!”
Birthday? Huo Chenhuan was stunned. Then, his face darkened. He didn’t look happy at all.
Su Yayan seemed to have expected this. Before he could flare up, she hugged him and said in a low voice, “Everyone is here. I’ll explain to you later.”
Su Yayan’s words made Huo Chenhuan calm down a little. Since there were so many familiar faces around, it was not appropriate for him to flare up. He could only remain silent as Su Yayan pulled him to the table.
Not many people came to attend this birthday party. Apart from Old Master Cheng and Qin Xueru, there were only a few old men who heard the news.
After spending half a month together, they were all considered acquaintances, so they naturally did not avoid talking.
The moment they saw Su Yayan, they couldn’t help but tease her. “Young Huo, you’re so lucky to be able to marry our Yanyan. Yanyan spent an entire afternoon cooking this table of dishes. It took a lot of effort!”
“Isn’t that so? Look at the cake placed in the middle of the table. After living for so many years, this is the first time I’ve seen such a big and beautiful cake. The white layer on top is said to be made of milk and eggs. It looks delicious.”
“Old Cheng, why didn’t you ask Yanyan to make such a cake for you when you were celebrating your birthday? After all, new people have replaced old people. Old men like you are not as attractive as young people!”
Old Master Cheng snorted unhappily.
It had to be said that the reason why this Old Li became sworn enemies with him every day was not without reason. Every time, he would accurately hit his Achilles’ heel, making him gnash his teeth in hatred.
Just like this time, Su Yayan had organized a birthday party for Huo Chenhuan and made him such a big cake. Although Old Master Cheng understood it, he still felt jealous.
However, he was pointed out by Old Li. He really wanted to pick up a broom and chase him out.
Su Yayan had to take her hat off to Grandpa Li for wanting to stir up trouble.
“I only learned how to bake this cake recently. If Grandpa likes it, I’ll make you a bigger and prettier cake when you celebrate your birthday this year.”
