Chapter 418 Wishes
In order to keep the surprise, Zhan Xiao led the team out and did not return until evening.
When I returned to the city, I found that the street leading to my home was decorated with colorful lights.
The corners of his lips lifted uncontrollably.
"Wow, it looks like the Gang Leader's wife has done something very grand."
"This is our gang leader's first birthday, so it's only right to make it grand."
"That's right, we don't lack this!"
"Hurry up, hurry up! I heard from the warehouse manager that Madam has taken out a lot of food materials today. Maybe she won't need to drink nutrient solution today."
"I heard that people always barbecue at banquets, so we can grill some too."
Zhan Xiao pursed his lips and smiled, "Go to the warehouse and get a few more edible meats. We'll roast them and share them later."
“Wow, that’s great!!”
"Thank you, Boss!"
"Hey, I'm in for a treat tonight."
It is not easy for them to get an edible exotic beast, so they usually sell it, after all, this thing is expensive.
As for them, it is usually enough for them to drink nutrient solution, but they will also have a snack occasionally.
But the ones they grilled themselves didn’t taste that good, because there was no chef in their gang and they didn’t know how to handle the meat of these exotic animals.
It's just that I rarely eat them, so I think they are delicious.
…
As Zhan Xiao led the team back home, there was a lively bang-bang-bang sound behind him.
At that moment, his first reaction was to turn around and be alert.
But what I saw was the fireworks in the sky behind me.
There were also subordinates who suddenly appeared and sang birthday songs for him.
The person I want to see most still seems to glow in the crowd.
The loose long skirt was blown into waves by the wind.
The gentle smile on her face seemed to want to drown people in this gentle land.
"Happy birthday, Boss!"
"This is the congratulatory song that Madam taught us to sing. Does it sound good?"
Zhan Xiao smiled and nodded, "It sounds good."
"Come, cut the cake and make a wish first."
Mo Han pushed over a six-layer cake. Although the shape looked irregular and the cream on top was bumpy, everyone looked at it as if they were blind.
With his eyes closed, he praised, "The cake my wife made is so big!"
It's not big, because she is not sure how to make the cake very tall.
But it doesn’t matter, Jiang Qin has her own understanding.
As long as the bottom layer is big enough, she can make it very high by reducing it layer by layer.
That's why the cake is so huge.
As for the shape and decoration, she had never done it before. Even if she spent time on it, she couldn't make it look very exquisite.
Just use some fake flowers or other decorations to cover most of the surface.
Although Long Yue felt that the cake was not very exquisite, she had seen the ingredients Jiang Qin used, so she felt that even if the cake tasted bad, it would not be that bad.
At most it's a little too sweet, but that doesn't matter, she loves sweets the most.
"Boss, make a wish quickly and then blow out the candles."
Zhan Xiao was silent for a moment. It was his first birthday, but he had always heard of making wishes on birthdays.
I remember one year, it was also his birthday.
At that time he had nothing and was not even able to fill his stomach, so he built a pile of sand, inserted a piece of wire as a candle, and made a wish.
Maybe it was because the cake was fake, anyway his wish did not come true.
So his obsession later on was to make another wish in front of the real cake.
But when he grew up and could afford to buy many of these expensive desserts, he never bought one.
Because he already knew that the wish would not come true.
So this dessert just doesn't make sense.
This time, he decided to believe in this childhood legend again. Maybe if he made a simpler wish, it would come true.
After all, letting a cake resurrect a dead person is indeed a bit of bullying the cake.
He silently made a simple wish and blew out the electronic candle in one breath.
“Fake candles, can this be achieved?”
Everyone: “…”
No, is their gang leader so simple?
This is just a form!
Jiang Qin: "...Yes, yes, everyone uses this candle, I heard...I heard it's quite effective.
But sometimes it doesn’t work. The key is to be sincere and work hard. You can’t just rely on thoughts.”
"Yeah!" Zhan Xiao responded seriously, his eyes full of desire for his wish to come true.
"Ahem, let's cut the cake."
"Hey, this is a cake made by the gang leader's wife herself. I have to have a bite of it."
“It smells sweet.”
"The first piece goes to our lady who has worked hard all day!"
The war lord is responsible for cutting, and the deputy gang leader is responsible for carrying.
He very cleverly gave the first piece to Jiang Qin, which made Zhan Xiao look at him with satisfaction.
As expected of his deputy gang leader, he is sensible.
"This second piece must belong to our Miss Bai Yue. You've been busy with Madam all day today. Thank you for your hard work."
It wasn't until the third piece that it belonged to Zhan Xiao, and then to Mo Han. After all, he was just a guest, not a member of the gang.
So the guests are given priority, followed by the females in the gang, and then the males according to their positions.
After everyone got their cake, everyone started eating together.
First bite... didn't taste much.
The second bite was... a little weird.
The third bite...some people were already stiff.
Zhan Xiao ate the whole piece without changing his expression. He didn't even know what he ate because he was chewing it with a crunching sound.
Seeing that he didn't react, everyone didn't dare to react and pretended to be calm and finished the cake.
That strange taste is simply despairing.
After taking three bites, Long Yue realized something was wrong. She smiled and gave her share to Mo Han.
"I'm on a diet recently, so I'll just try this to satisfy my craving. You can eat the rest."
“…”
As for Jiang Qin, she didn't like sweets very much because of her pregnancy, so after tasting it, she simply gave it to Zhan Xiao.
After all, it’s not good to waste food, and she didn’t make it dirty, she only scraped it once with the spoon.
Seeing Zhan Xiao quickly finish two pieces, Jiang Qin asked, "How does it taste?"
“Delicious, very sweet.”
"Do you want more? There's still plenty."
"I'll see if anyone wants it later. If no one wants it, I'll put it back in the space button."
"Yeah." As long as it's not wasted.
But there isn't much left.
The people of the Jinsha Gang were miserable. They forced themselves to smile and finished the food in their hands, not daring to look at the cake again.
Especially some people who had eaten some miscellaneous things, originally wanted to spit out the food in their mouths secretly, but after a glance from Zhan Xiao, they swallowed it instantly.
This sweet burden should be borne by the gang leader himself from now on. They are not worthy of it!!
Fortunately, there will be barbecue later, otherwise I will have to wait until everyone disperses and then drink the nutrient solution secretly.
You know, many people came here tonight on empty stomachs.
Just to eat a few more bites of the giant cake made by Jiang Qin...
