Chapter 135 I really want to bite her
Hai Yan dared not challenge Chunyu Han, but these four guards were all equals. Cang Hai had openly defied the master's orders, so Hai Yan was naturally not going to give him a friendly look.
Yu Nian noticed that the atmosphere had suddenly become tense, and she felt a little anxious.
There's no need for that. Why make things difficult for other workers?
Just when Yu Nian thought the two of them were about to argue and her bowl of noodles was definitely going to get soggy, Cang Hai turned around and looked up at Hai Yan standing on the wall with great surprise.
"What are your orders, sir? I just came back from my shift and I don't know."
You could even hear a hint of innocence in his tone.
As Canghai spoke, he gestured to Yu Nian behind his back, indicating that Yu Nian should go first and that he would take care of things here.
Yu Nian silently gave Cang Hai a thumbs up. Well done, Cang Hai, you truly deserve to be Chunyu Han's man; your acting skills are impeccable.
I won't thank you enough. I'll give you a chicken leg when I have time another day!
"The master has given orders... Oh! How did she get inside..."
Haiyan leaped down the wall, but his path was blocked by Canghai's strong figure.
"Can you please show some respect to the madam? You should refrain from interfering in the affairs of your masters."
Haiyan felt frustrated, but he couldn't actually fight Canghai. However, he didn't acknowledge Yu Nian as his master.
Yu Nian rushed into the Regent's Mansion. In order to find Chunyu Han as soon as possible, she even turned on the navigation function in the system.
The full moon hangs high, its clear light spilling down, scattering across the ground.
Chunyu Han sat under the largest osmanthus tree in Yu Garden, gazing absently at the small doll in his hand.
His dark robes seemed to blend him into the night, with only the colorful embroidered lovebirds on the sachet at his waist reflecting a faint light under the lamp.
He still doesn't know why he took a day off, disguised himself, went to see Yu Nian's blind box business, and even joined the queue to buy one.
Chunyu Han felt that he had been losing control of himself recently.
"What are you doing here?!"
Yu Nian's hurried yet slightly coquettish voice came from behind.
Chunyu Han was taken aback; he truly hadn't expected her to come.
Isn't today her birthday? She should be celebrating with her family today.
The little doll in his hand instantly turned into a hot potato, and Chunyu Han quickly stuffed it under the books next to him to weigh it down.
His face regained its calm and stern expression.
Yu Nian sat casually next to Chunyu Han, slightly out of breath. Luckily, there was navigation; otherwise, with Chunyu Han hidden so well, Yu Nian might have spent half the night searching for him.
"Why did you come back?"
Chunyu Han looked away. She was quite capable; he had ordered martial law, and she had managed to sneak in.
Yu Nian found Chunyu Han's words sour and sarcastic, sounding like a little grumbling woman throwing a tantrum.
"Of course I'll celebrate my birthday with my husband when I get back."
Yu Nian smiled and took out the food box, placing it on the low table.
The courtyard was already brightly lit by moonlight, and Chunyu Han had lit two lamps by the low table under the tree, making it even brighter than the house.
Chunyu Han's expression shifted slightly. Since the day his family was destroyed, he had never celebrated his birthday again.
"Look, it's still piping hot. I made longevity noodles for you myself. It took me a long, long time to make them."
Yu Nian carefully held the bowl of noodles, wisps of steam rising from it, enveloping her smiling face. Her smile was so sweet, her eyes sparkling, like a child showing off a treasure.
He didn't ask Canghai to inform her, but she still knew it was his birthday today.
The wisps of heat seemed to seep into his heart, leaving a gentle warmth.
But the thought that this woman hadn't been home for five days caused that little bit of warmth in Chunyu Han's heart to vanish in an instant.
"I'm not hungry."
Chunyu spoke in a cold voice and looked away.
He's hard to coax; if he were easy to coax, he wouldn't be Chunyu Han.
"I know you have a rule that you don't eat at this time, but today is different, it's your birthday."
"Please, at least eat a bite! I really worked so hard for ages to make this. Look, my hands were pricked by splinters while I was tending the fire!"
Yu Nian put down the bowl, nimbly walked around to Chunyu Han's side, and held her hand up to his eyes.
Yu Nian's hands were beautiful, fair and slender, with a bloodstain on her index finger, which she waved back and forth in front of Chunyu Han's eyes.
Her skin was so fair and tender, I really wanted to take a bite out of her.
"All the servants in the Prime Minister's residence have died, so you are required to personally start the fire."
Chunyu Han slapped away Yu Nian's fingers that were shaking him and turned his face away.
“That’s different. Of course, I will personally prepare the birthday gift for my husband.”
Yu Nian wasn't that delicate; a small cut was nothing to her. She was just making a fuss over it.
A bowl of noodles can be considered a gift? How cunning!
When Chunyu Han went to the blind box stall, he didn't see Yu Nian. There was only a boy who looked like Yu Sheng shouting. Now that he thinks about it, Yu Nian must have been delayed because he was making this bowl of noodles.
My eyes swept over the bowl of noodles; the noodles were quite exquisitely made.
On top, four carrot slices were used to ingeniously carve four words: "Happy Birthday".
"Why is it a birthday, not a birth date?"
Chunyu Han had never heard of this term before. He glanced at Yu Nian and thought she always used some strange and unusual words.
Yu Nian rolled her eyes inwardly. "You idiot, you're just eating noodles, why are you making so many questions?"
What else could it be? Because the character "辰" (Chen) was too difficult to carve. Yu Nian failed to carve even half a radish, so he gave up and switched to the character "日" (Ri).
"It's about the day we were born. We weren't born at the same time, but if we're going to celebrate together, then of course we'll celebrate this day."
Yu Nian offered a wild and illogical explanation, but the system had never told her what time Chunyu Han was born.
But Chunyu Han seemed quite satisfied with the answer, feeling that Yu Nian had put in some effort, and this time he would give her face and allow her to try a bite.
Chunyu Han picked up his chopsticks, but Yu Nian suddenly remembered something and grabbed Chunyu Han's wrist.
"Wait a minute!"
Yu Nian's reaction was quite significant, even giving Chunyu Han the impression that she had poisoned the noodles but couldn't bring herself to do it.
Yu Nian had no idea what Chunyu Han was imagining. She found a small candle under the food box, removed the lampshade, lit it, and placed it on the table.
"Let's make a wish before we eat, together."
This was actually Yu Nianxiang's wish; it was her first birthday in this world, and she wanted to pursue a bit of ritual.
Yu Nian clasped her hands together tightly and closed her eyes.
The warm candlelight illuminated her fair profile, her long, delicate eyelashes trembling slightly.
Chunyu Han was somewhat lost in thought. Could a wish really come true if he made one?
He never believed in these things; the only way to fulfill his wish was through his own two hands.
Yu Nian made a wish, and when she opened her eyes, she met Chunyu Han's deep gaze, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
Why is he staring at her when she's making a wish?
"What did you wish for?"
Yu Nian blew out the candle, and Chunyu Han's indifferent voice rang out.
"My husband, this wish will not come true if you say it out loud."
Upon hearing Yu Nian's words, Chunyu Han immediately put down his chopsticks and stared intently at Yu Nian.
"If you don't tell me, I won't eat."
After saying that, he pulled the food box toward him, his tone somewhat domineering.
"You're not allowed to eat it either."
