Chapter 15 Cake



After listening to this, Chu Zhaozhao ordered a takeout, but the Chu family was a bit far from the nearest cake shop, and she felt bad about the expensive delivery fee.

"What are you doing?" Chu Tianyi asked vigilantly.

"Why do you care about me so much?" Chu Zhaozhao found it funny and asked jokingly.

Chu Tianyi flatly denied it, then immediately got up and left.

After Cheng Feifei and Chu Rong washed the fruit and brought it out, they found that there was no one downstairs except Chu Zhaozhao.

"Has Tianyi gone upstairs too?" Cheng Feifei asked gently.

Chu Zhaozhao nodded and started eating the fruit without hesitation.

"Zhao Zhao, why don't you stay the night at home? There are rooms at home that have been cleaned. If you need anything, ask someone to prepare it."

[You're not trying to get me to go back to the Chu family, are you? System, act quickly! I'm scared!]

[System: Master, would you like to put on another show?]

Do you think it's appropriate?

"But I have something else to do tomorrow, so I might not be able to make it."

After Chu Zhaozhao finished speaking, she paid attention to the expressions of Chu Rong and Cheng Feifei. Noticing that there was no change in their expressions, she felt relieved.

"Work is important. If you're busy, you can stay home for a while after dinner before leaving."

Chu Rong and Cheng Feifei had already taken a step back. Chu Zhaozhao didn't know what to say and nodded immediately.

The family of three chatted awkwardly for a while, and then the takeaway ordered by Chu Zhaozhao arrived. Chu Zhaozhao took the cake and went upstairs.

I don’t know whether my brother really doesn’t like it or is just pretending, but Chu Zhaozhao just ordered a four-inch small cake.

Since the gift did not satisfy her brother, Chu Zhaozhao still spent some time choosing this cake.

“Brother…”

Chu Zhaozhao knocked on the door again, but Chu Huaian took a long time to open it.

"Why are you guys..."

Seeing the cake in Chu Zhaozhao's hand, Chu Huaian immediately swallowed the rest of his words.

"Brother, what are you talking about?" Chu Zhaozhao raised his eyes and asked.

Chu Huaian paused and said, "No, why did you bring a cake?"

"I wanted to eat cake, but my sister said there was no cake prepared for you at home, so I bought one myself. Can we eat together?"

Chu Zhaozhao's eyes were shining, and Chu Huaian felt a sinking feeling in his heart.

"Brother, do you really not like cake?" Chu Zhaozhao asked cautiously.

Chu Huaian smiled and didn't answer. Chu Zhaozhao guessed that he might have been forced to not like cake.

Chu Zhaozhao opened the cake and put seven candles on it for Chu Huaian.

"Brother, I heard that seven years old is a critical period for a person. At this time, children are the most energetic, so I hope my brother will be energetic every day in the future, and that my brother will be the smartest person in the world. That's all."

Chu Zhaozhao stuck out her tongue and smiled at Chu Huaian.

[Chu Zhaozhao, thank you.]

"No need to thank me, no need to thank me. Why are you so polite, brother?" Chu Zhaozhao said embarrassedly.

Chu Huaian asked with a nasal tone: "Hmm?"

Only then did Chu Zhaozhao realize that what she had just heard was Chu Huaian's inner voice.

Chu Zhaozhao immediately explained: "I was afraid you would thank me, so I told you in advance that you don't need to thank me."

"Brother, hurry up and blow out the candles and make a wish, otherwise it will be too late." After saying that, Chu Zhaozhao took the initiative to sing the birthday song.

[This is the first birthday I've ever had a cake for. I hope I can have a cake of my own every year.]

Touched by Chu Huaian's voice, Chu Zhaozhao's eyes turned red.

[System: Master, what's wrong with you?]

[No, I feel so miserable for my eldest brother. He's the eldest son in the family, but he seems to have never been loved. His parents only pay attention to his younger brothers and sisters, and forget about the eldest brother who deserves the most attention.]

[System: Chu Huaian was born when the Chu family was starting their business. Chu Rong and Cheng Feifei didn't have time to take care of him, so it was natural for him to be neglected.]

[From now on, I will buy my eldest brother a cake every year, and each year it will be bigger.]

"Brother, blow out the candles quickly."

Chu Zhaozhao looked even more excited than Chu Huaian.

"What are you doing?" Chu Tianyi stuck his head into the study and asked vigilantly.

Chu Tianyi screamed and said, "Chu Zhaozhao, you actually lit a candle in Big Brother's study! Don't you know that some of Big Brother's books are very valuable? What if your candle burns Big Brother's books?"

"Am I not quite far away from big brother's book?" Chu Zhaozhao said puzzledly.

Chu Tianyi hurried forward, picked up the cake, and said, "Oh, no, these smells will also harm the books. Why are you so careless? I'm embarrassed to say anything to you, but you really think it doesn't matter, right?"

"Put down my cake!" Chu Zhaozhao yelled.

Chu Tianyi immediately let go and the cake fell to the ground.

"Chu Tianyi!" Chu Zhaozhao gritted his teeth and said with his eyes wide open.

If it weren't for Chu Tianyi, they would be enjoying the cake now.

"I let go because you told me to. You can't blame me..." Chu Tianyi gave Chu Huaian a look for help.

I don’t know if Chu Tianyi did it on purpose, but Chu Zhaozhao was very excited and picked up the part of the cake that was still in the box.

Chu Zhaozhao said regretfully, "Brother, what should I do? It's already broken."

"Tianyi, get out." Chu Huaian once again ordered Chu Tianyi to leave.

Chu Tianyi was dissatisfied and shouted, "Brother, I didn't mean it. It's just a broken cake. What's the big deal? At most, I can compensate Chu Zhaozhao and that's it."

"This is not a broken cake. What do you know? You are talking about a broken cake all the time." Chu Zhaozhao approached Chu Tianyi and yelled.

"Tianyi, please get out of here quickly." Chu Huaian's tone also turned cold.

Chu Tianyi covered her face and cried, then ran out.

"Brother, how about I order some takeout?"

Chu Huaian smiled bitterly and shook his head.

[Zhao Zhao, thank you. You've done enough. At least I have a cake this year.]

Chu Huaian’s inner thoughts made Chu Zhaozhao feel distressed for her elder brother again, and at the same time, she was also filled with disgust towards Chu Tianyi.

Chu Zhaozhao thought that no matter what Chu Tianyi did before, it was acceptable, but what happened just now made Chu Zhaozhao hate Chu Tianyi.

"Brother, next year, I will definitely buy you a big cake." Chu Zhaozhao said solemnly.

"Thank you Zhaozhao." Chu Huaian finally smiled brightly.

I always thought he was the most unkind eldest brother in the family, but I didn't expect that he was the most flesh and blood one.

Chu Zhaozhao was filled with emotion, but didn't know what to say.

"This cake is not very sweet. I like it very much. It also has cherries."

Chu Huaian didn't mind that the cake had just fallen to the ground. He took a bite with a spoon and tasted it.
