Lu Yang got something and turned around, only to find Jiang Yanzhou standing in front of her.
âItâs for you,â he said.
Lu Yang looked up and opened the box as she spoke, âYou asked me before if there were any good accessories, and my brother and I just happened to see this while we were shopping yesterday.â
Inside the box was a ring.
Jiang Yanzhou lowered his eyes and looked at her quietly for a moment.
Suddenly, he grabbed her wrist with a force that was neither light nor heavy, âDo you know what kind of ring is worn on the ring finger of the left hand?â
Lu Yang instinctively stiffened and stared at him blankly.
The ring on the ring finger of the left hand?
It seemed to be⦠a wedding ring!
Lu Yang knew that his faint mole was on the knuckle of his ring finger, but she had never thought about it that way.
She really just thought it was a simple accessory.
Jiang Yanzhou pushed aside the hair that had fallen from her face, and his long fingers gently brushed over her cheek. Looking at her bewildered eyes, he soon took the box from her hand, âDonât easily give gifts to men.â
âThen you should give it back to me.â
âExcept for me.â
âYou guys are here. Everythingâs ready. Iâm just waiting for everyone to arrive.â
Zhao Yanshu came to call out, âHurry up!â
Lu Yang turned her head, âOkay, Iâm coming.â
In the open-air garden, the lights were dim, and the night breeze carried a faint scent of flowers.
The happy birthday song played on a loop, and the candle flames on the cake flickered. Jiang Jinshi made a wish gesture, closed his eyes, and said in a childish voice, âI hope Sister Yangyang can celebrate my birthday with me next year too!â
Lu Yang was stunned, âYouâre granting your annual wish so easily?â
âYes!â Jiang Jinshi opened his eyes, his black grape-like eyes naive and looking at her, âImmortals are not trustworthy, but Sister Yang is trustworthy.â
âAt such a young age, you speak so well. Youâll do well when you grow up.â Lu Yang smiled.
âIâll cut the cake.â
Lu Mingyu cut the cake, and Chen Su brought over two bottles of wine. He opened the bottle opener and directly opened the red wine bottle, pouring it into the decanter.
âWho wants to drink?â Jiang Jinshi eagerly raised his hand, âMe, me, me. I want to drink!â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhat kind of wine can a little brat drink?â Lu Mingyu knocked Jiang Jinshiâs head and gave him a bottle of milk, âDrink milk.â
Zhao Yanshu came out with a wine glass and, in coordination with Chen Su, poured the wine. When it was handed to Lu Yang, Lu Mingyu blocked it, âAlcohol is not good for the body, Yangyang cannot drink.â Zhao Yanshu awl?vardly took it back, âI didnât think of that.â
Lu Yang reached out, âGive it to me, thank you.â
Lu Mingyu nodded, and Zhao Yanshu handed it to her.
Lu Mingyu prattled on, âYangyang, your body is not good, you canât drink much. Just take a sip, just a small sip, not too much!â
Lu Yang shook her wine glass and said, âResearch has shown that wine, especially red wine, is good for the human body.â
Jiang Jinshiâs cheeks were smeared with cream at some point, and he asked, âWhy?â
âRed wine is rich in polyphenols, which have strong antioxidant effects,â Lu Yang said, âAnd, in 2004, a report from Germany pointed out that drinking dry white wine can have a slimming effect.â
Slimming?
Chen Suâs eyes lit up and he quickly filled Lu Mingyuâs wine glass with the wine decanter.
âDrink more, maybe you can drink your way to an eight-pack abs!â
Eight-pack abs! Eight-pack abs! Eight-pack abs!
Lu Mingyu was speechless.
Curious baby Jiang Jinshi asked again, âThe more you drink, the less fat you have, will you end up in the hospital?â
He didnât like staying in the hospital when he was young. The hospital was full of sad faces.
âWine can make people healthy and long-lived,â Lu Yang said, âMany of the spirited elderly people in Sardinia who do physical labor drink a liter of wine.â Longevity!
Lu Mingyu took the wine decanter from Chen Suâs hand and poured it into Jiang Yanzhouâs glass. âDonât say Iâm not a loyal friend. I gave you the wine, you have to live until Yangyang is worry-free. â
He urged, âDrink up, what are you waiting for? This is your destiny!â
Jiang Yanzhou was baffled.
Lu Yang only took a sip of the wine and continued to eat cake with Jiang Jinshi. After finishing the cake, he wanted to play games with her.
âSudoku and Minesweeper, which one do you want to play?â
Nowadays, children donât play matching games, but Sudoku and Minesweeper?
In the end, Lu Yang decided to play a normal video game with him.
Jiang Ruzhiâs jet lag hadnât adjusted yet, and she was in a daze. After seeing Jiang Jinshiâs message, she called back but no one answered. She called Jiang Yanzhou, but no one answered. Finally, she had to call Zhao Yanshu.
âWhy arenât Xiaoshi and Yanzhou answering their phones?â
Zhao Yanshu glanced at Jiang Jinshi, who was happily playing games with Lu Yang, âLu Yang came to celebrate his birthday, and heâs having a great time.â âAs for Yanzhou, heâs⦠drinking.â
âNo wonder Xiaoshi sent me a âmommy hugâ and âmommy kissâ expression pack. It turns out itâs his birthday!â Jiang Ruzi suddenly realized.
Undoubtedly a doting mother.
Jiang Ruzi was taken aback, âYanzhou is drinking?â
âHe didnât drink voluntarily, he was forced to.â Zhao Yanshu told the truth.
âWith his sour face, who would dare to force him to drink?â
. Lu Mingyu.â
âLu Mingyu, Lu Yangâs brother?â
âYep.â
In the phone, there was silence for a long time.
She asked, âDo you think Lu Yang really likes Yanzhou? Will she hurt him like the woman two years ago?â
âI donât know.â Zhao Yanshu looked at Yanzhou and said, âBut itâs very difficult for Yanzhou to like someone he likes.â
The voice suddenly raised without warning, âOh, my fashion show is going to be late!â
Jiang Ruzi was in a hurry, âIâll trouble you guys to take care of Xiaoshi. Iâll bring him a birthday present when I come back in a few days. Iâm hanging up now, bye.â
The phone was hastily hung up. Zhao Yanshu: â
A few days meant no fixed time.
Lu Yang and Jiang Jinshi were immersed in the game and didnât pay attention to the others until Lu Yang was tired and drowsy. She glanced at the others then.
She didnât know when her brother got drunk, lying on his back, and Yanzhou was quiet with his eyes closed, as if he was sleeping.
Zhao Yanshu picked up Xiaoshi and whispered, âIâll take Xiaoshi to the room first.â
âOkay.â
Chen Su regretted letting Lu Mingyu drink so much. He asked her, âIs there any way to make him sober for a short while and get drunk again when he gets home?â
âLetâs leave tomorrow.â Jiang Yanzhouâs voice was a little hoarse, and he still hadnât opened his eyes, âGuest rooms are available.â Chen Su immediately said, âThen you guys can stay tonight!â
Finally, they didnât have to take Lu Mingyu back home.
Lu Mingyu was drunk as a skunk, occasionally raising his voice and shouting, âIf the moon isnât drunk, Iâm not drunk. Give me a full glass of wine, I can still drink another dozen bottles of white wine!â
Lu Yang was speechless.
He gets drunk on a little wine, but he wants to drink another dozen bottles of white wineâ¦
âWhereâs my little sister?â Lu Mingyu raved, his mind in a haze, âOh no, I forgot to ask for a safety charm for Lu Yang!â
Then he sang, âIn the small town of Eisenacher on March 21st, by the banks of the Hersel River, flows a melodyâ¦â
Soon after, he changed to another song, âDo you want to dance, dance, dance?â
Lu Mingyu stumbled and stood in front of Lu Yang, lowered his head, extended two fingers, and poked her cheek, exclaiming, âYou look just like my sister.â
Lu Yangâs head was starting to ache. She pressed her temple and asked Chen
Su, âCould you please help my brother to the room?â âNo need to be so polite. Iâll take him in first.â
âOkay.â
Chen Su helped Lu Mingyu into the room, and Lu Yangs eyes swept over several empty bottles on the ground, feeling helpless. At the rate they were drinking, they were sure to have a splitting headache tomorrow.
The light shone on Jiang Yanzhouâs head. He closed his eyes, with long and thick eyelashes casting a shallow shadow. Half of his face was hidden in the darkness, and the other half was visible in the dim light, revealing his well-defined jawline.
Lu Yang bent down and reached for the glass in his hand.
Jiang Yanzhou suddenly looked up, his Adamâs apple visibly rolling down. He slowly lifted his eyelids, and a smile overflowed from the corners of his mouth. Lu Yang stood frozen, half bewildered, and half calm. Her dark pupils were filled with her smile..
