The mention of his uncle stunned Michy greatly. He had expected that sooner or later, he would need to meet his uncle to explain the situation, and it turned out that the time came sooner than expected.

He had promised his uncle that he wouldn't disappoint his uncle again, but he ended up doing something that could only be described as a disappointment.

At a time like this, Michy couldn't even selfishly think about his career, and he was more concerned about the people who felt disappointed with him.

Azren noticed how the idol's face turned gloomy again. Perhaps Michy could still act calmly if this issue was only involving him, but when his uncle was also involved here, the idol surely would feel guilty.

The demon sighed before putting his phone back on the nightstand and lying his body next to Michy again. He once again hugged the fragile body that belonged to his boyfriend, but this time, he placed Michy's head on his chest securely.

Not only did their hands that looked like two pieces of a puzzle completed each other, but their bodies also managed to fill each other's space.

Azren felt like he was home the moment he had Michy in his embrace, and he silently promised himself not to let go of the boy no matter what.

"I'll be with you when you meet your uncle tomorrow. It's also my fault, so I will help you to explain to your uncle, Michy," using his softest voice, the demon tried to comfort his boyfriend.

Michy was not an ignorant boy, and he could sense that his boyfriend was worried about him now. However, he was hesitant to return the warm hug given by his boyfriend.

It wasn't because he didn't like the hug, but his heart was still restless now. He didn't even know how he could explain to his uncle, and he was quite worried right now.

Not getting a verbal response from Michy, and knowing that the human didn't even return the hug, Azren tried to use a different method to comfort the young idol.

"Your birthday is coming soon, right? Do you want a birthday present from me?" He asked the question, hoping that the new topic would be able to distract the idol from his bad thoughts.

Azren had learned more about Michy, and he even knew the idol's birthday now. Now, he could proudly say that he was the best assistant for the idol.

And after hearing Azren's question, Michy did seem to be distracted, and he pulled himself away from his boyfriend as he gave the boyfriend a mocking look. "Do you have any money to buy me a present?" He teased his poor boyfriend.

Azren gasped in surprise, and he even acted as if he was deeply hurt because of Michy's insult. "I can always make a handmade present for you, Michy. A birthday present is not always related to money, right?" As if he had the skill to create something, Azren solemnly asked.

Seeing how solemn his boyfriend was, Michy looked guilty after hearing how Azren replied to his question. 'Right. I was thinking about money too much all these years, and I often assumed that happiness was always about money. I had to deal with my current trouble just because of my greediness. I can't blame anyone for it.'

With the sudden realization, Michy fell silent again, and his blue eyes even looked blank. The look made Azren frown as he felt even more worried about his boyfriend.

"Did I offend you, Michy? It's not wrong for thinking about money. Humans need money, after all."

Azren remembered how the nice Michy spoke about money some time ago. Back then, the nice Michy just confessed to him that he indeed sold himself to be able to make his debut soon, and Michy said that humans needed money.

The demon didn't mean to bring up that topic again, but it seemed the current Michy recalled the memory as well.

The next thing he heard from the idol was a heavy sigh before responding to his statement, "What about you? When is your birthday?"

It seemed that Michy wanted to change the subject by asking him different questions, but Azren looked confused upon hearing the questions.

'When is my birthday? I was born two hundred years ago, but I don't know the date or month. Demons never celebrated birthdays, and I never felt curious about my birth date. How am I supposed to answer Michy's question now?'

Now Azren didn't know how to answer the idol's question, but then he suddenly remembered something. He carefully let go of Michy's body and used his hand to take out his wallet from his pants pocket.

He remembered seeing his age information on his ID card, and perhaps there was also birth date information on the card. His wallet was in his hands, and he immediately took out the ID card from his wallet.

What Azren was doing right now was quite strange in Michy's eyes, and that was why he directly asked, "You don't even remember your birthday and need to look at your ID card to find it?"

Azren's hands stopped moving when the card finally was out of his wallet. He brought his emerald eyes to stare at Michy, and he could see how the idol display a look full of confusion.

'I'm so stupid! Now Michy sees me as a weirdo for sure. Maybe no human ever forgets their own birthday!'

Azren felt like slapping his forehead for his stupidity. His behavior wasn't like a human, and probably Michy would feel suspicious toward him.

"Let me make a guess," Michy finally spoke again, and Azren looked more anxious now. "You don't remember your birthday because you never celebrated your birthday, right? I remember you once said that your parents were poor, so that's the case, right?"

Michy was arrogant as usual, but Azren needed to thank the arrogance because it managed to help him hide his identity. Lucifer had told him to keep his identity a secret, so he was so afraid if Michy ended up suspecting him.

"You are right," Azren replied while smiling sheepishly. "I never celebrated my birthday, and that's why I can't remember my own birth date. But I think it's not a big deal even if I never celebrated my birthday. What's the point of celebrating the moment when we get older?"

Azren indeed never celebrated his birthday because he wasn't a human. He used his brain to think for an excuse, and his brain finally helped him with the answer.

The demon was confident with his response, but Michy was still blinking at him without saying anything. Now, Azren felt nervous again. 'Did I say something wrong?' He wondered.

But, to his surprise, Michy suddenly pulled the corner of his lips to form a small smile. "You are right," he replied. "Maybe I have to tell my uncle to cancel my birthday party. The situation is like this, and it's not the right time to have a party."

Azren was relieved because his random excuse earlier didn't offend Michy, but now he looked confused when he heard the idol's words. "Your uncle wanted to hold a birthday party for you?"

"Mhm," Michy answered calmly. "Ever since I was adopted, my new family always celebrated my birthday, so it's not something new for me."

Azren looked like he was contemplating something after hearing Michy's answer. 'I don't really care about a birthday party, but I think it can be a good distraction for Michy.'

"Maybe you don't have to cancel the party, Michy," the demon spoke again. "I can see that you feel bad for disappointing your uncle again, and if you want to cancel the party, then it probably will make him feel sadder."

Azren didn't care about Willem Shelton's feelings, and he only cared about Michy's feelings. However, if he could use Willem Shelton to make Michy feel happy, then why not?

Michy didn't immediately agree with his idea, but the boy didn't show any hint of disapproval either.

"Give me your ID card," instead of responding to his question, the idol gave him an order.

Azren was puzzled, but he still handed over his ID card to the young idol. The next thing he saw was how the idol used his pair of azure eyes to scan the thin card, and he patiently waited for the idol to respond to him.

He could see the idol displayed a surprise expression before looking up from the ID card. "I won't cancel the birthday party then," the idol suddenly decided.

The decision was quite abrupt, and it confused the demon. "Why did you suddenly change your mind, Michy?"

Azren didn't even know why the idol suddenly changed his mind, and he looked confused now.

However, Michy just smiled while handing the ID card back to him.. "We were born in different years, but our birth dates are the same. Let's celebrate our birthdays together!"
