Chapter 445 Secret Surprise
Ye Ran sat down and counted the number of people. Only after confirming that no one was missing did she feel relieved and sit down again.
Looking at Qingzhu, who was drinking tea beside her, Ye Ran nudged his hand. "Why haven't your Aunt Xiu and the others arrived yet? And what about your brother Lu? Did he go to pick them up?"
Qingzhu didn't look her in the eye. Upon hearing this, she simply poured herself another cup of tea and gulped it down. "I guess so..."
Looking at the strange-looking green bamboo, Ye Ran blinked. This child is acting strangely today…
Qingzhu, who was being stared at by Ye Ran, mechanically kept chugging cup after cup of tea, silently hoping that Ye Ran would stop looking at him...
Seeing Qingzhu like this, even though Ye Ran didn't want to point out his strangeness, she couldn't help but want to say something.
Just as Ye Ran was about to remind Qingzhu that she had drunk too much tea, Chen Zheng smiled and picked up the teapot in front of Qingzhu. "Qingzhu, I've told you not to eat so much ham, but you just wouldn't listen!"
Foreign ham is also cured with salt, so how could it not be salty after eating so much? Now you know the consequences!
Upon hearing this, Qingzhu slowly turned her head and glared at him from where Ye Ran couldn't see. What nonsense are you spouting?!
Chen Zheng ignored his angry glare and walked past him to ask Ye Ran, "Is everyone from your side here? I remember you have a friend named Yun Hao, right? Should we call him over?"
Ye Ran's attention was drawn to this question, and she put Qingzhu's strange behavior out of her mind. She then answered Chen Zheng's question, "You mean Yun Hao? There's no need to worry about him. This is Anna, Yun Hao's girlfriend. She has already called him."
Chen Zheng glanced at Anna, smiled, and greeted her. Anna returned his greeting with a knowing smile.
After waiting for a while without seeing Lu Yi and the others appear, Ye Ran became impatient and started taking out her phone to call them.
Just as she took out her phone, all the lights in the restaurant went out, plunging the entire restaurant into darkness.
Ye Ran was stunned by this unexpected turn of events, but suddenly had a premonition.
Without giving her time to think, a faint candlelight soon appeared in the dark space...
Ye Ran looked at Lu Yi, who was smiling in the candlelight, with surprise and covered her mouth. What was going on?
Soon, everyone responded in unison, "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."
Ye Ran then vaguely remembered that today was her twentieth birthday. She had been so busy lately that she had completely forgotten about it.
However, Lu Yi still remembers...
Amidst the sincere singing of the crowd, Lu Yi walked up to Ye Ran.
Happy birthday, my dear wife!
After saying that, he took out a velvet box that he had hidden behind his back.
Ye Ran was deeply moved. Under the kind gazes of everyone, she opened the box in Lu Yi's hand.
The moment it was opened, everyone couldn't help but gasp in amazement.
Inside the exquisite jewelry box lay a beautiful crown, inlaid with a huge green diamond and various colored diamonds.
Even in the dim candlelight, it still shone with a captivating and dazzling light...
The moment Ye Ran saw it, her emotions were beyond words.
