On Xiaohua's birthday, He Yan gave her a women's watch worth over ten thousand yuan. He had carefully selected it at the department store for a long time before buying it. Xiaohua's wrist was slender and fair, and the light pink watch should suit her very well.
Xiaohua didn't accept it, and he had guessed that she probably wouldn't accept it when he bought it.
But when she actually refused to accept it, he couldn't help but feel sad.
Finally, he gave the watch to Kang'an. He told Xiaohua that Kang'an could wear it when he grew up. It was for his daughter, and Xiaohua had no right to refuse it on behalf of her daughter.
Kang An thought the watch was very pretty, sparkly with diamonds. When her father said he was giving it to her, she happily accepted it.
He Yan figured that since Xiao Hua had Kang An accept the gift, he would consider it as Xiao Hua accepting the gift.
On her birthday, she ate lunch with her child and He Yan. The main reason was that He Yan didn't want to leave when it was lunchtime, and Kang An also invited his father to have lunch at their house. She didn't want to refuse He Yan's lunch, for fear that Kang An would be unhappy.
Xiaohua bought a cake, and Kang'an loved making wishes on the cake. Although it was Xiaohua's birthday, it was Kang'an who made the wish.
Kang An's wish is simple: he just wants his mother to be happy forever and to spend one more day with her.
"I've booked a restaurant for tonight. How about I treat you to a big birthday dinner?"
He Yan asked with some anticipation.
Xiaohua refused without even thinking: "I have plans tonight, you can take Kang'an to eat."
He Yan was very disappointed.
Pretending not to care, I casually asked, "Who are you going with? Your colleagues from school? Or your classmates? Can Kang An and I come? Let's go and have some fun together."
"Of course not, otherwise why would I have bought a cake at noon? It was so I could celebrate this birthday with Kang An."
He Yan had already guessed who she was meeting that night.
But in what capacity could he ask?
He's not qualified!
That evening, Xiaohua appeared at the Rose Restaurant dressed up. Zhou Musheng had already arrived. Xiaohua said apologetically, "I'm treating you to dinner, and I'm late."
Zhou Musheng nodded and smiled: "It's alright, I was only two minutes earlier than you."
Zhou Musheng handed the beautifully wrapped gift box to Xiaohua: "Happy Birthday!"
"You know it's my birthday today."
Xiaohua was a little surprised!
"We've known each other for quite a while now. If I didn't even know your birthday, wouldn't I be a failure as a close friend?"
"It's my birthday, and I'm treating you to dinner. Does that make it seem like I'm deliberately trying to get a gift from you?"
Xiaohua blushed slightly.
She really didn't mean it. She had always wanted to treat him to a meal alone. The successful opening of Mengdongfang School was all thanks to his help, so she wanted to thank him.
However, the school had just opened, and there were many things to do. She also had to take care of her studies, so she really didn't have time.
She only took a day off today because it was her birthday.
I was thinking of having lunch with Kang An at noon and then treating Zhou Musheng to dinner to thank him.
"How could that be? I'm actually very happy that you invited me to dinner on your birthday so that I can celebrate with you."
Zhou Musheng pointed to the gift box and said, "Would you like to open it and see if you like it?"
"Now? Wouldn't it be inappropriate to open a gift in front of the person who gave it?"
After hearing what he said, Zhou Musheng couldn't help but smile and said, "The gift I gave you shouldn't be too shabby, so I don't mind if you open it now and take a look."
