At 11:59 p.m., the candles on both cakes were lit at the same time.
The two of them closed their eyes and made a wish together.
Their wishes are all related to each other.
"Brother, this is a cake I made for you myself." Qiao You pointed to the cake in front of him with a boastful look. "I studied for a long time."
"Look at my hands."
Qiao You opened his palm in front of Helian Jue, revealing a scratch on his palm, likely caused by a sharp tool.
Helian Jue felt a warmth in his heart. He took Xiaoyu's hand and gently kissed her palm.
“Little Fish, you don’t need to do these things for your brother.” Helian Jue said earnestly, “As long as Little Fish is by my side, I’m very happy today.”
"Little Fish will always be number one in her brother's heart."
Qiao You was just being affectionate, not complaining. His brother was good to him, and he wanted to be good to his brother in return.
"elder brother."
Helian Jue lay down with Qiao You in his arms, saying, "Brother knows Xiaoyu's feelings."
"Little Fish wants to have a happy birthday celebration for her brother, right?"
Qiao You nodded, "Mm."
"But if Xiaoyu gets hurt while celebrating her brother's birthday, her brother will be even more heartbroken."
Qiao You continued to nod.
"Alright, it's late, let's go to sleep." Helian Jue gave Qiao You a light kiss on the forehead.
Qiao You reciprocated by kissing Helian Jue on the cheek.
Just as she was about to close her eyes and go to sleep, Qiao You suddenly remembered something else. "Brother, can I go to the East Palace with you tomorrow?"
"I want to go find..."
"No, I want to spend tomorrow with my brother."
I was terrified! I almost betrayed Sister Nuonuo. Qiao You was still shaken.
Helian Jue was distracted by Qiao You's kiss and failed to notice the loophole in Xiaoyu's words, so he readily agreed, "Okay."

The next day.
"How is it? Have His Highness and the others arrived?"
"Eleanor, quickly ask Prince Qiao You."
"Yeah, where are they?"
"Have the lookouts outside been arranged?"
...
The main hall of the East Palace was noisy, and Eleanor was surrounded by Wayne and the others.
Lucy and Yu Qin were squeezed into a corner, like two little quails huddled together for warmth.
"Do you think Sister Nuonuo might have gone too far?" Yu Qin asked with some concern.
Lucy was also a little worried, "It shouldn't be."
"Sister Nuonuo and His Highness Qiao You are close friends and often chat on the personal terminal."
Eleanor's head was throbbing from all the noise, especially Wayne! He had the loudest voice!
"Quiet!" A loud shout rang out, and silence fell instantly.
"How can I speak when it's so noisy?" Eleanor's face darkened, but she still maintained a commanding presence.
Wayne took two steps back; it was too fierce, he was terrified.
Eleanor glanced at his personal terminal; Youyou had just sent him a message saying that he and His Highness would arrive in about five minutes.
"Get ready, His Highness and the others will be here soon," Eleanor gave as a final instruction. "Don't yell the wrong thing later."
Wei Yin retorted, unconvinced, "Yesterday was clearly just His Highness's birthday, why did we have to include Prince Qiao You?"
Eleanor felt a surge of pride. Ha! She had inside information, you know.
This is because she's close to Youyou! What does that stinky Wei know?! And he dares to question her!
I can't be bothered with this person.
Cui Jing realized what was going on. Eleanor must have gotten to know His Highness's precious fish and understood His Highness's thoughts. He joked, "No problem! We'll listen to whatever Eleanor says."
Eleanor was delighted by this, exclaiming, "Oh, no problem at all!"
Qiao You followed Helian Jue to the East Palace and was held in her brother's arms, but she kept looking around. Sister Nuonuo said she was preparing a surprise for them.
"What is the little fish looking at?" Helian Jue asked, noticing the little fish in his arms looking around.
Qiao You shook his head! He wanted to keep it a secret!
As the man and the fish entered the main hall, they saw petals falling on their heads and many beautiful butterflies flying out and dancing around them.
"Happy birthday to Your Highness and Prince Qiao You! May you have many more birthdays to come!" the people of the Eastern Palace said in unison, their faces beaming with smiles as they offered their sincerest blessings.
