Chapter 72: Birthday again, okay?
Yuntan's wish has not changed, but this time he is surrounded by the warmth and liveliness of the crowd.
She was surrounded in the middle and distributed pieces of cake to everyone.
Lu Wangshan even made an extra small piece of cake. He didn't put any sugar in it, but simply spread a layer of light cream on the small bread dough. It was a birthday cake specially prepared for Leo.
Ruan Zhaozheng was holding up his camera and taking photos from all directions.
Yuntan has never had such a lively birthday.
Yuntan has never looked forward to her birthday. After all, her birth was not filled with anticipation and joy.
This was the first time she truly experienced the joy of a birthday.
Xiang Wu arranged this birthday party very well. It was lively and warm. Everyone sat side by side and chatted in the spectacular sea of flowers in the mountains. The evening breeze swayed, and Leo ran wildly in the sea of flowers.
Xiang Wu took the initiative to act as the host and started by saying a lot of nice things. With her delicate, coquettish and artificial voice, she almost made Yun Tan the most beautiful woman in the world.
Then we organized everyone to play games, and the loser had to go on stage to perform a talent, any talent was fine, such as speaking, learning, joking and singing.
Everyone has a good time on weekdays, so naturally there is no objection.
Xiang Wu naturally would not let Zhong Xuzhi go with this rare opportunity, as he wanted to embarrass him.
She didn't believe that this old-fashioned guy could have any outstanding talents!
Xiang Wu cheated when dealing the cards, and Zhong Xuzhi lost the game as expected.
Xiang Wu held up the microphone, her tail almost raised in delight. "Boss Zhong, come on, what's your talent?"
Jin Ci and his group joined in the commotion.
Jin Ci encouraged, "Sing a song! Dedicate it to those two who are showing off their love." He raised his chin and gestured to Yun Tan and Lu Wangshan.
Zhong Xuzhi looked at Xiang Wu and asked, "Will you sing with me?"
"Why should I be with you?"
"Aren't you the host? It's your job to cooperate with the guests."
"What kind of guest are you!" Xiang Wu snorted softly, thinking that the man must be stage-frightened and wanted to drag her down with him.
Still speaking to Xiang Yin: "Wu Wu sings beautifully, let's sing together."
"Okay, okay, let's go together."
When Zhong Xuzhi stood up and walked to her side, Xiang Wu glared at him again and whispered, "I'm only singing with you because of my aunt."
Zhong Xuzhi curled his lips, leaned forward slightly, and whispered in her ear, just loud enough for the two of them to hear: "Thank you, Princess, for your grace."
Then he stood up, facing everyone, and asked, "What are you singing?"
Xiang Wu: "It's up to you. I can do anything."
"Jin Ci said it was for Shouxing and Wangshan, so it's 'A Thousand Years'?"
He choked at the fog.
Why is it an English song? What English songs do Chinese people sing?
But this song is too common, the most common choice of background music for wedding entrances, and Xiang Wu couldn't even say that he had never heard of it.
"Is it okay?" Zhong Xuzhi asked.
Xiang Wu was held up but refused to bow his head: "Of course."
The speakers started playing the prelude, and Zhong Xuzhi sang first. He had a nice voice and beautiful English pronunciation, and everyone in the audience was particularly supportive.
Xiang Wu was simply shooting himself in the foot. His English was not as fluent as Zhong Xuzhi, who often traveled abroad on business, and he sang haltingly.
In fact, it sounds very nice, but Xiang Wu is not satisfied and thinks that Zhong Xuzhi is deliberately teasing him.
While singing "I have loved you for a thousand years, I'll love you for a thousand more" (My love for you has stood the test of a thousand years, even if another thousand years pass, my heart will not change), Xiang Wuzheng glared at Zhong Xuzhi angrily, turning the love song into a declaration of war.
Xiang Yin and Lu Chengjun also looked at Xiang Wu with smiles. They really doted on this niece and were satisfied no matter how they looked at her.
But at this moment, this song has another meaning in Yuntan's ears.
Could this be a marriage proposal?
She and Lu Wangshan sat at the front of the long table. She leaned in Lu Wangshan's arms and suddenly tilted her head to ask in a low voice, "Mommy, haven't you given me a gift yet?"
Lu Wangshan lowered his head and kissed her cheek: "I'll give it to you when I get back to the room later."
Yun Tan narrowed his eyes, tilted his head up and leaned close to his ear: "It's easy for me to think the wrong way if you do that."
Lu Wangshan smiled: "Oh, if Xiao Tan wants that kind of gift, I will naturally accompany you."
Yuntan's heart was beating a little fast.
She wasn't sure if it was a proposal.
But what kind of gift can only be given after returning to the room later?
The group of people made a fuss for almost the entire night before they left together.
Yun Tan and Lu Wangshan decided to go back tomorrow morning and spend the last minute of their birthday here.
It was very late, but Yuntan still had no sleepiness at all. She was overwhelmed by the kindness and love that came like a tide, and her whole body was bubbling with happiness.
She sat on the living room carpet and began to open the birthday presents everyone had given her.
There are so many, and each one is prepared very carefully.
Elara also prepared a gift for her, but she is currently on her way across the country.
"Let's tear it down tomorrow morning."
Lu Wangshan is the chef in charge of the barbecue tonight. He has sweated a lot and has just finished taking a shower. He has combed his black hair behind his head, looking refreshed and handsome.
He walked over to Yun Tan and held him in his arms, "Isn't it time for you to look at me, Xiao Tan?"
The second half of the party was more lively. Xiang Wu played songs suitable for dancing and invited Yun Tan to dance with him.
She was wearing a beautiful dress and was led to the center of the crowd by Xiang Wu's hand. Yun Tan was not good at dancing in front of the public, so she twisted her body to the music awkwardly and casually, with a smile on her face and her skirt swaying gracefully, making people unable to take their eyes off her.
This also made Lu Wangshan feel a little jealous and he wanted to hide her.
"I'm looking at you." Yun Tan hugged his neck and kissed him, "Mommy, I really like you, thank you."
"Thank me for what?"
"Thank you for giving me such a birthday. Thank you for all the good people around you." Yun Tan pressed her lips against his and whispered softly, "Thank you for everything."
"You think they are good because you are a very good person."
Lu Wangshan gently pinched the tip of her nose and shook it left and right. "Xiang Wu's personality is such that she won't treat you well just because you're my girlfriend. She's really into you and treats you as a good friend, and the same goes for everyone else, including my parents."
Yuntan's soft heart became even softer.
Lu Wangshan hasn't proposed yet.
She already wanted to marry him.
"Shouldn't I go upstairs?"
Lu Wangshan asked, and without waiting for Yun Tan to answer, he picked her up and carried her upstairs.
"Should I close my eyes?" Yun Tan asked.
He smiled: "You can close your eyes."
Yuntan closed his eyes, pressed his chest against him, and was beating quite loudly.
Leo played all day and was exhausted, so he went to sleep on the first floor.
Lu Wangshan held her with one hand and opened the door with the other.
The first thing that felt was the nose. Yun Tan smelled the fragrance of flowers and subconsciously opened his eyes. He saw a huge beam of gorgeous Freud in front of him, hanging down like a waterfall. Looking up, the thin lines under the beam reflected the bright light, and on the lines were pictures, like a dream.
Yuntan put his arm around his neck and leaned over to look, only to find that the photos were all of them and Leo.
She looked up in confusion.
The first photos that caught my eye were a little unfamiliar. They were when they were 18 and 22 years old.
They actually took a lot of photos during that ridiculous yet sweet year and a half. Lu Wangshan liked to take photos of her and Leo, all kinds of photos.
When she hugged Leo, when she curled up on the sofa holding a watermelon and made a "yeah" sign to him, when she fell asleep, when she cried while watching a movie...
During those years abroad, Yuntan never dared to think about that time.
Over time, the memory became blurred along with the definition in the heart, but at this moment, Yun Tan truly saw that they had really loved each other so passionately back then.
Looking further ahead, most of the photos are landscape photos.
These are the records taken by Lu Wangshan when he flew to Milan many times over the years.
He walked the path she walked and breathed the air she breathed.
There is also a picture in which Yuntan's eyelashes tremble slightly——
She reached out and pinched the photo, which was her graduation photo in her bachelor's gown.
This was taken by Lu Wangshan.
It was also proof that he was truly by her side during those years.
It turned out that she was not alone at that time.
Yun Tan's eyes suddenly became hot: "Lu Wangshan, what were you thinking at that time?"
His tone was calm, and he smiled softly as he spoke, "I was just thinking, time flies so fast, and Xiao Tan has graduated too."
Further on, there are photos taken after she returned to China, photos taken in Xinjiang during the Chinese New Year last year, photos of her and Leo standing in front of the yellow sand and white snow of the Gobi Desert, photos of them on a hot air balloon, and photos of them attending Jiang Zhier's wedding together.
The last photo is a family photo she took with Lu Wangshan’s family during the Chinese New Year this year.
The well-arranged photos show their complicated lives.
Yuntan burst into tears again.
She thought that no matter how hard and unhappy her first half of life was, meeting Lu Wangshan was already a blessing for her.
She pressed her wet face against Lu Wangshan and kissed him again.
Like a very well-behaved and clingy kitten.
There was only a dim ceiling light in the room. Lu Wangshan became more and more distracted by her kiss. Tenderness and desire intertwined, and he felt a strong desire to completely absorb her into his body.
He was busy washing and preparing vegetables today, soaking his hands in water for a long time. When he took a shower at night, he washed them carefully with a very strong hand soap. It was inevitable that his skin was a little dry at this moment.
Fortunately, the kitten was generous enough and moist enough.
Yun Tan was hugged by him face to face, her eyes pressed against his shoulders, her passionate and rapid breathing hit his collarbone, burning the skin there and making it turn red.
The kitten is extremely well-behaved.
He was not afraid of any evil acts he committed.
The subtle sound of water was in sync with the kitten's trembling. Lu Wangshan looked up and said, "Baby, look at me."
Yuntan then raised his head.
His eyes were red and wet, and his chest was rising and falling, more vivid than any dream he had imagined.
When he entered, he saw the kitten's brows suddenly furrowed, and she pushed his chest with her hands as if to resist, but finally curled up obediently in his arms. She was small and thin, humming and whimpering, really like a kitten.
Lu Wangshan felt a little soft-hearted, but more importantly, his desire to destroy grew stronger with his heart beating like thunder.
"Do you love me?" Lu Wangshan whispered.
Yun Tan took a deep breath: "Love."
"Well, if I use more force, will you stop loving me?" Lu Wangshan said viciously.
Yun Tan was bullied by him and choked and trembled, but still said: "No."
Her long hair swept across the photos on the thin line and brushed across her cheeks like a curtain.
She looked at the life of the two of them in the photo, her heart was soft, but her body was even softer, and she became the dam that was about to be collapsed, and was finally washed away by the flood.
Lu Wangshan's sympathy finally returned. He rubbed her waist and said softly, "You haven't finished opening the presents yet."
The voice seemed to be far away from her. It took a long time for Yun Tan to recover from that state. She blinked and said "hmm": "What?"
"A birthday present."
"Aren't these the ones?"
"There's something else." Lu Wangshan held her in his arms and walked a few steps towards the window. He raised his hand to open the photo curtain and picked up the envelope on the bouquet of flowers. "Open it and take a look."
This posture is really difficult.
Yuntan had just cried, and her eyelashes on her innocent little face were wet in clumps. She sobbed as she pulled out the thick stack of papers from the envelope.
Her reaction became a little slow. She looked for more than ten seconds before slowly frowning and froze in shock.
"What's this?"
"WH Group's equity transfer agreement."
"Who to transfer it to?" Yun Tan was confused by the completely unexpected answer.
Lu Wangshan chuckled: "Baby, if I transfer it to another woman, won't you kill me?"
“…………”
Yun Tan stared at the stack of documents in a daze. The transfer equity ratio was 15%.
For a company of the size of WH Group, this is already an incredible proportion.
"Won't the other shareholders say anything if you do this?"
"I have independent decision-making power at WH Group."
Yuntan still found it unbelievable. She had never imagined such a birthday gift.
This is not just real money, but also completely integrating her into his future plans. No matter what the future holds, it is impossible to break up easily.
"Happy birthday, Xiao Tan." Lu Wangshan said again in a low voice.
So many people wished her a happy birthday today.
Yun Tan hugged his neck tightly and whispered, "As long as I can be with you, I am happy every day."
…
In the end, the heavy equity agreement just fluttered down and fell onto the huge bouquet.
Yun Tan's knees were held in his arms, and she was a little confused. Her brain almost stopped working amidst all the sentimental talk. She had no idea that after all these surprises and gifts from Lu Wangshan, there was no proposal as she expected.
The clock has already passed midnight and entered a new day.
Yun Tan almost felt like she was losing everything. Sitting on the sofa, her thoughts gradually came back to her. She felt like she was almost going crazy.
Thinking of Lu Wangshan's crazy and bad behavior, Yun Tan was proud and thought to herself that it was a good thing that Lu Wangshan did not propose to her in the middle of the relationship, otherwise she would definitely reject this tyrant.
Her eyelids were so weak that she only raised them vaguely, showing a certain indescribable charm.
That arrogant thought was dispelled when Lu Wangshan spread out a clean quilt and came over to hug her.
Yuntan wondered, why hasn’t he proposed yet?
It was him who was eager to get married when she just returned to China.
So annoying.
Thinking of this, Yun Tan struggled angrily a few more times.
"What's wrong? Didn't you keep saying you wanted to go to sleep?" Lu Wangshan covered her with a dry and soft quilt and asked in a gentle voice.
Yun Tan hugged his arm and scratched it with his nails in dissatisfaction, like a kitten, and grumbled, "You're so annoying."
"Well, thank you for your hard work, baby." Lu Wangshan thought she was referring to what happened just now, so he leaned over and kissed her again, "Thank you, baby."
Yuntan felt extremely anxious but couldn't say it out loud, so he had to find fault.
She turned her head to the side to prevent him from kissing her.
"Are you angry?" Lu Wangshan insisted, "Is it a little swollen? Let me take a look."
After saying this, he pretended to lift the quilt again.
Yun Tan quickly grabbed his arm and pulled him back, saying again, "You're really annoying."
Yun Tan's eyes were slightly closed, her cheeks and eyes still red, her brows slightly furrowed, and her complaints were transformed into soft spring feelings. Yun Tan herself didn't realize that she was now so adept at acting coquettishly and arrogantly towards Lu Wangshan.
Only Lu Wangshan could see her true changes.
So the smile in his eyes deepened, and the affection in his heart was about to overflow. He couldn't let go and stuck to her again: "Okay, okay, you can scold me tomorrow, go to bed first, okay?"
He leaned over to turn off the bedside lamp, then took Yuntan into his arms again.
Lu Wangshan had been busy all day and felt a little sleepy. He soon fell asleep after smelling the quiet scent on Yun Tan.
But Yuntan couldn't sleep.
She really wasn't sure about Lu Wangshan.
I waited for a long time but got nothing. I don’t know what he was waiting for.
She was unwilling to give up and wanted to subtly remind him whether he had forgotten something.
Then he spoke softly: "Lu Wangshan."
"Um."
"Mommy."
"Yeah." He responded with his eyes closed.
It was indeed too subtle, and Lu Wangshan was completely unaware of it.
Yun Tan looked into his eyes in the dim light and addressed him differently: "Brother."
This time Lu Wangshan smiled, but still kept his eyes closed. He just hugged Yun Tan's waist and asked, "What are you doing?"
Yun Tan took a deep breath and changed his last name to——
"husband."
Lu Wangshan suddenly opened his eyes and his gaze met Yun Tan's. The heat that had just subsided began to burn again.
Yun Tan opened her lips slightly and wanted to say something, but Lu Wangshan hugged her.
"you--"
Lu Wangshan's sleepiness disappeared in an instant, and he leaned over and kissed her again.
Yuntan was very angry.
Not only did this person fail to understand her implicit meaning, he even tried to take advantage of her.
"Wait a minute, get out of here!"
Yun Tan's legs were still weak, and he tried to climb down using all four limbs, but was pulled back by Lu Wangshan. The man turned into a clinging water ghost, and his body was burning hot.
"Wife, one more time, okay?"
