Chapter 1100 Extra: I Want a Little Sister
Happy birthday!
The little koi clapped its hands and sang the most sincere birthday song in its tender voice.
Happy birthday!
As the last note faded, Shang Xun slowly opened his eyes.
What came into view was the face he had been longing for day and night.
Black Fox wore a long red dress, her makeup was exquisite, and even her hair was carefully styled.
She was holding the cake, gazing at him with a bright smile.
"Wife?"
Upon seeing the person who suddenly appeared before him, Shang Xun seriously doubted that it was an illusion.
He tentatively reached out and touched the black fox's face.
It's real.
It's warm.
"Happy birthday, Shang Xun." Black Fox, unusually, wasn't angry at his ridiculous behavior and spoke gently.
"My wish has come true."
Shang Xun paused for a few seconds, then suddenly grinned.
He put the cake in Black Fox's hand aside, pulled the person into his arms, and said in a wronged tone, "Is this your birthday present to me?"
"Do you like it?" Black Fox asked softly, letting him hold her.
"certainly."
Shang Xun held her tightly, his voice choked with emotion: "This will be the best birthday gift I've ever received in my life."
“Perhaps there will be something even better in the future,” Black Fox said, gently pushing the person away and taking a document out of his bag.
"What is this?" Shang Xun looked through it, completely bewildered.
"This is the award certificate for this competition." Black Fox patiently explained, "After winning the award, the studio's reputation will rise to a new level, and I won't need to keep an eye on it all the time anymore."
"From now on, I will delegate most of the work in the studio to my subordinates."
"From now on, all my time is at your disposal."
"ah?"
Happiness came too suddenly, catching Shang Xun off guard.
Although the couple has been married for many years, they have not had enough time to spend together due to their busy careers.
In order to spend more time with her, Shang Xun voluntarily sacrificed a lot of his work.
He often did her laundry and cooked for her at home, treating her like royalty.
The second wife couldn't even bear to look at it.
I've never seen such a spineless man.
Shang Xun snorted coldly and retorted without any mercy: "Isn't my elder brother?"
"..."
The second wife was speechless for a moment, finally realizing what had happened.
This might be due to family genes!
"If you feel it's too hard, you can reduce the workload."
Shang Xun gripped Black Fox's shoulder and said earnestly, "If it's for my sake, there's no need for that."
“I never thought that spending less time together would be a problem between us.”
"Black Fox, do whatever you want to do. No matter what happens, I'll be there for you."
“I’ve done what I wanted to do,” Black Fox interrupted him. “Black Fox Fighting Studio is renowned in the industry, that’s enough.”
"..."
Shang Xun stared at her silently for a long time before finally speaking: "Did my mother say something to you?"
"have!"
Black Fox didn't hide anything and answered truthfully, "Mom isn't angry with me, she just wants me to love you more."
Because she knew that her son loved her too much.
In a conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it's likely that Shang Xun is the one who gets hurt.
She would rather argue with Shang Xun than say a single bad word about him to his face.
“I understand how Mom feels.” Black Fox licked his lips, then continued, “Thinking about it carefully, I did ‘bully’ you a little.”
"How could this be!"
"Let me finish." Black Fox grasped Shang Xun's hand and said slowly, "I take advantage of your love for me to bully you."
Shang Xun frowned. She had no idea that what she called "bullying" was, in his eyes, like flirting, something he absolutely loved.
"Shang Xun..."
Black Fox stepped forward, looked up and met his gaze. "I grew up in a bad environment, so I'm used to being cold-blooded and not very good at loving people."
"But I really love you, I just don't know how to express it."
"I know."
Upon hearing Black Fox's confession, Shang Xun's eyes immediately welled up with tears, and he exclaimed excitedly, "You're better than me, my wife."
If Shang Xun had a long tail behind him, it would be shaking violently at this moment.
"I have a bad personality, I'm not gentle, and I'm not good at taking care of people..."
Black Fox swallowed hard, her voice soft: "So if we have a baby in the future, you'll have to be understanding."
Black Fox swore she had never spoken so gently to anyone in her life.
"Wh-what?"
Shang Xun blinked, hardly believing his own guess.
Could it be that Black Fox is planning to...?
"Shang Xun, let's have a child." Black Fox stared at Shang Xun and said, word by word, "Actually, I had already made plans before my mother came to me."
"Wife..."
"I don't feel any pressure, I just feel that the time is right."
As Black Fox spoke, she suddenly moved closer to him and murmured in a hoarse voice, "You want to be a father, and I happen to want to be a mother too."
"Shang Xun, do you want it?"
"think."
Shang Xun picked the person up and agreed without hesitation, "There's no time like the present, I think today is perfect."
"..."
The black fox was unusually docile, obediently hooking its arms around his neck.
The door was kicked shut.
Only the birthday candles on the living room dining table remained, their flames flickering.
No one noticed that Pei Jinwu and her family of three had long since disappeared.
——
Inside the car.
Shang Jinli huddled in the corner, hugging himself with both arms.
Feeling resentful.
"Why didn't you give me any cake?" Shang Jinli pouted and asked angrily, "I held that cake for so long, my hands hurt so much, and I didn't get to eat a single bite."
"My uncle is a liar; he didn't even blow out the candles for me."
"I'm going to get angry."
"..."
Pei Jinwu glanced at her angry son, opened her mouth, but couldn't explain.
She couldn't very well say that her uncle and aunt were going to do something "bad" and that no one should see it, could she?
"you say!"
Pei Jinwu simply shifted the blame onto Shang Shiyan.
That brat is too clever; he can't be fooled easily.
Shang Shiyan pulled Shang Jinli onto his lap and said softly, "Because Aunt has been gone for a long time, Uncle misses her and they want to be alone together."
"I haven't seen Auntie in a long time either," Shang Jinli retorted. "Shouldn't I spend time with Auntie too?"
"..." That makes sense.
Shang Shiyan smiled helplessly and said patiently, "They have something to talk about privately, and they can't let others know for the time being."
"How about this, Dad will buy you a cake just like your uncle's, okay?"
"Are there candles in them too?" Shang Jinli asked.
"It's not impossible," Shang Shiyan said with a smile. "You can live in your uncle's place."
Anyway, he probably won't have time to care about birthdays anymore.
——
Inside the villa.
With all the lights off, Shang Jinli sat at the dining table and sang "Happy Birthday" to the birthday cake covered with candles.
"..."
Pei Jinwu and Shang Shiyan were forced to sit on the side.
I'll spend this birthday with him without a "birthday boy".
"Make a wish!" Shang Shiyan was exceptionally cooperative, since this was Wuwu's doing.
What other options are there besides spoiling them?
"..."
Following Shang Xun's example, Shang Jinli silently made a wish.
I want a little sister.
——
Good night.
Tomorrow we'll be moving on to the "Little Princess" storyline, hehe.
