Chapter 143: Chapter 143 Daily Routine Foolishness (Additional Update)
“What invitation?” Jiang Xu asked.
“Zhou Qingyue. She has just informed me.
It’s her birthday today, and she’s hosting a dinner tonight at the Century Hotel.
I guess all our classmates are probably there.”
Jiang Xu was taken aback.
Only then did he remember that Zhou Qingyue also had her birthday today.
What a coincidence.
Jiang Xu retorted irritably, “Why do you need to join in? Wouldn’t playing games be more enjoyable?”
“I am going there to gather some information,” Fu Yanjie said. “In case she badmouths you or something.
It seems that she didn’t inform you.”
“Nonsense, dare she?” Jiang Xu rolled his eyes, “I am busy, I am going.”
Zhou Qingyue’s birthday had nothing to do with him.
He set off.
He tied the fireworks to the back of his motorcycle.
He hopped onto his beloved motorcycle and raced towards An Nuonuo’s house.
Meanwhile, An Nuonuo arrived home.
When dinner time arrived, she saw a table full of delicious foods and a large birthday cake.
Only then did she remember, today was her 18th birthday.
She hesitated for a moment.
Then she wanted to call Jiang Xu to tell him about her birthday.
She was now 18, an adult.
The doorbell rang.
An Feng ran to open the door.
“Hello, Uncle.”
Jiang Xu parked his motorcycle and took off the fireworks with a smile.
He stored them in the yard, planning to set them off after dinner.
Seeing Jiang Xu, An Nuonuo’s face instantly burst into a radiant smile.
“Hello, Auntie.”
“Xiao Xu is here! Come and have dinner.”
“Nuonuo, happy birthday,” Jiang Xu approached her, taking out the gift he had bought.
“Thank you,” the girl responded, her eyes were curved like crescent moons as she smiled.
Her two shallow dimples charmed anyone who saw her.
The four of them sat down together.
An Feng personally served drinks to everyone, “Ah, my sweetheart is now a grown-up in a blink of an eye.”
Jiang Xu was filled with emotion as well.
Although An Nuonuo wasn’t raised by him, he could raise her in the future.
They sat like a family, enjoying a delightful dinner.
After finishing dinner, they cut the cake.
Despite now having plenty of money at home.
When cutting the cake, An Nuonuo was still very thoughtful.
There was no smearing of icing on faces, no wastage.
After eating the cake, Li Yuanjuan went to the kitchen to do the dishes.
An Feng followed her in.
They tried to create an illusion of a still loving couple.
Jiang Xu dragged An Nuonuo to the backyard.
“There’s another small surprise for you. Sit here and don’t move.
Here, cover your eyes.”
The girl blinked her bright eyes, full of anticipation.
She complied as Jiang Xu took a handkerchief to blindfold her.
Then, Jiang Xu went to fetch the fireworks.
He bought five.
They were barrel-shaped, with twenty shots in each.
After positioning them correctly, Jiang Xu lit the fuse and quickly ran back to An Nuonuo’s side.
He removed the blindfold.
“Bang!”
In the dark night, a dazzling firework burst into bloom.
The girl went from surprise to joy, her voice trembling slightly, “Thank you.”
Seeing her like this, Jiang Xu couldn’t help but admire how simple the girls of today were.
Such merely one harmless firework could make her so happy.
If it was the school beauty a few years later, without luxury cars, diamond rings, and the latest mobile phones, they wouldn’t take you seriously.
In the kitchen, Li Yuanjuan watched the fireworks through the window and silently shed tears.
Seeing this, An Feng sighed slightly, not knowing what to say.
An Nuonuo watched the spectacular fireworks without blinking.
Jiang Xu quickly captured this moment in a photo.
When all five boxes of fireworks were finished, An Nuonuo was still excited.
“When is your birthday?” An Nuonuo asked curiously.
“December fifth.”
“Ah, so you’re younger than me, and yet you always make me call you big brother. That’s too much.”
The girl pouted, inflating her cheeks.
She looked incredibly adorable.
Jiang Xu couldn’t help but poke her cheek.
The girl deflated instantly, and Jiang Xu burst into laughter.
An Nuonuo was a bit embarrassed, but she held it in.
After a while, Jiang Xu stopped laughing. “Do you know what ‘great ones are always the masters’ means?
I am better than you in every respect and have been tutoring you for so long. Calling me brother is too much?
From now on, you must continue to call me brother.”
An Nuonuo turned her head away: “I don’t want to.”
“You’ll have to.”
The girl looked at Jiang Xu helplessly.
Then, she took out the gift from Jiang Xu: “May I open it?”
“Of course.”
She carefully opened the box.
Upon seeing the heart-shaped gold necklace inside, her eyes lit up instantly.
Jiang Xu smiled: “Do you like it?”
An Nuonuo nodded vigorously: “Yes, I do.”
Jiang Xu hehe chuckled: “Then let me put it on for you.”
He took the necklace and walked behind her.
An Nuonuo gently pulled up her shiny, black hair.
Exposing her fair neck.
The icy touch of the necklace made her body shudder a little as it contacted her skin.
The necklace Jiang Xu chose was a stylish design.
So it didn’t look old-fashioned when she put it on.
Then they both sat on a chair, looking up at the stars in the sky.
The environment was still good, and pretty much every night, as long as it wasn’t raining, you could see the stars.
But in about ten years, especially in big cities, seeing the stars would be quite difficult.
Jiang Xu’s mobile phone was vibrating continuously.
He picked it up to see.
It was a message from the class group.
When he opened it, it was full of photos of Zhou Qingyue.
She was dressed in expensive attire that evening, showcasing her advantages flawlessly.
Plus makeup, which lifted her overall attractiveness a notch.
She was indeed very impressive.
There were lots of compliments for her in the group.
An Nuonuo also took out her mobile phone, somewhat surprised: “Zhou also has her birthday today.”
Jiang Xu sneered: “They’re trying to isolate us.
All the classmates, only we two weren’t invited.”
An Nuonuo said softly: “It doesn’t matter, I have you.”
After saying this, she looked down.
Jiang Xu saw her face was blushing.
He was tempted: “Nuonuo, say ‘good brother’ for me.”
“No.”
“Come on, you say ‘good brother,’ and I’ll call you ‘good sister.'”
An Nuonuo was somewhat swayed.
What would it be like to be called sister by Jiang?
Slightly hesitating, she parted her lips: “Brother~”
Jiang Xu: “No no no, it’s ‘good brother.'”
An Nuonuo: “Good brother~”
“Ah!”
Jiang Xu felt refreshed all over.
It was like having a bucket of cold water poured over him on a hot summer day.
“Your turn.” An Nuonuo looked at him expectantly.
Jiang Xu played dumb: “My turn for what?”
“Your turn to call me sister.”
Jiang Xu blinked: “Did I promise you?”
The girl then knew that she had been tricked by Jiang Xu.
So, she bit down on Jiang Xu’s arm.
Jiang Xu winced: “Let go.”
An Nuonuo didn’t listen.
So, Jiang Xu…
