Chapter 286 Helping her celebrate her birthday
Kong Chi said seriously, "That's right, Mommy, have you been watching too many period dramas? You think the Wen family is more powerful than the imperial palace. The Qing Dynasty has been gone for hundreds of years!"
Kong Wange: "..."
To have a "fake" birthday, adults climb walls and children crawl through holes. She doesn't understand, she's tired, let it all end.
The three children saw that Kong Wange remained unmoved.
Murong Chen said pitifully, "Mommy, don't be angry. We're still children, and Daddy is getting old. It's not easy for either of us."
Kong Ran added, "That's right, Mommy, we're doing this entirely for your own good, and besides, we're already here."
Kong Chi concluded, "My sister and brother are right, Mommy. It's a holiday, you'll get used to it. Let's cut the cake and blow out the candles!"
Murong Ting sighed and said, "Wanwan, the children are right. They just wanted to come with me to see you. Don't worry, we won't stay long. We'll just have some cake together and then leave."
Hearing what Murong Ting said, and seeing the three little ones' expectant looks, Kong Wange's heart softened.
Actually, it was her fault to begin with. She could have been openly with the children, but now she has to sneak around even to eat cake. It's all just to accommodate her plans.
She wasn't originally so paranoid; if it weren't for Wen Zhengning's probing in the main hall just now...
She let out a long sigh of relief, relieved of her worries, and said to Murong Ting, "Put the cake down and cut it."
Hearing that Kong Wange had given in, the three little ones were overjoyed: "Yay!"
Murong Ting's tense body relaxed slightly, and he turned around with a faint smile to prepare.
Today is Kong Wange's 25th lunar birthday.
Murong Ting only lit ten candles, saying it was to celebrate her entering the experimental class and to bring good luck for a complete and fulfilling year.
Thinking of her two tenth-place finishes, Kong Wange thought to herself that the number "ten" was quite fitting.
The candles were lit, and the three little ones and Murong Ting sang her a birthday song in low voices as if chanting a spell. Then Murong Ting asked her to make a wish.
Looking at the man's handsome profile in the candlelight, Kong Wange inexplicably thought of the scene when he stepped off the helicopter on Mount Ling earlier that day.
She slowly closed her eyes, made a wish earnestly in front of the cake, and then blew out the candles.
The candles went out, and the three little ones were very happy, dancing and singing as they divided the cake that Kong Wange had cut.
This cake has a very simple design, just white cream and a few strawberries on top, but it tastes quite good.
Seeing the three children eating happily, Kong Wange's tense nerves couldn't help but relax.
After finishing the cake, the three little ones exchanged glances and said in unison, "Mommy, we won't disturb you and Daddy's whispered conversation. Let's go play in the yard for a while."
Before Kong Wange could agree, the three little ones had already opened the door and run into the yard.
Kong Wange: ? ? ?
We agreed to leave after eating the cake!
...
The path leading to Kong Wange's courtyard.
Wen Sichen, holding the general's hand, scolded, "That's enough! You've only eaten their sausage once, and you're still holding a grudge. You've completely disgraced me!"
The general was completely oblivious to its master's disdain. When the master spoke to it, the general wagged its tail and rubbed its head against his hand to please him.
Wen Sichen: "..."
Oh well, he must have owed this big black dog something in his past life.
He shook his head, quickened his pace, and soon arrived at the gate of Kong Wange's courtyard. Just as he was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, he vaguely heard the voice of a child in the courtyard.
Besides him, who else in the Wen family has children?
Driven by curiosity, Wen Sichen decided not to knock on the door. He tied the dog to a tree by the door and quietly climbed over the wall to peek inside.
However, when he saw who the three children in the courtyard were, he was so shocked that he almost fell off the wall.
Was he seeing things?
What are these three little devils doing here?!
He picked up a small pebble from the wall, threw it into the yard, and whispered, "Hey, how did you three kids sneak in? What are you doing here so late at night?"
The three little ones were having a great time playing in the yard when they were suddenly startled by a pebble. When they turned around, they saw a red-haired head popping up on the wall, grinning and talking to them.
The group gasped and immediately huddled together.
Kong Chi was the first to calm down, glaring at him and saying, "It's none of your business. You tell me first, what are you doing here so late at night?"
Wen Sichen rested his chin on the wall, rolled his eyes, and said, "Hey, you little brat, you're really not polite. I'm here to buy sausages for your stepmother to feed the dogs, what about you?"
Kong Chi clutched the hem of his clothes, secretly glancing inside the room, and said nervously, "We returned the wrong things last time we came, so we're here today to get them back."
"What are you trying to fool me in the middle of the night? Fine, do whatever you want. Just one question: is your stepmother home?" Wen Sichen saw that the doors and windows were tightly closed, and the curtains were all drawn, making it very dark inside. He really wasn't sure if Kong Wange was there.
The three little ones adhered to the principle that since you asked so sincerely, they would tell you, even if it meant lying a bit.
They shook their heads together and said, "They're not here."
"Really?" Wen Sichen wasn't entirely convinced. "I'll come in and see for myself."
"Wait a minute!" Kong Ran growled, "Are you stupid? Can't you see the three of us are waiting for her to come back in the yard? You stay still, we'll come out and find you!"
Kong Ran gave a signal, and the three little ones, while remaining on guard, moved one after another towards the outside of the yard, afraid that Wen Sichen might accidentally climb over the wall and ruin their parents' good time.
However, as soon as the three of them stepped out of the courtyard, they saw the general chained to the gate.
The general wasn't shy at all; perhaps the three human cubs were too adorable, for he not only didn't bark but also wagged his big tail at them.
Murong Chen bravely reached out his little hand and touched the dog's head. The general then lay down on the ground with a thud, belly up, and even stuck out his tongue to lick his hand.
Seeing how well-behaved the dog was, Kong Chi had an idea: "This black dog is probably that little tyrant's dog. Let's not talk, just take the dog and run, and see if he chases us."
Kong Ran said, "What if he doesn't chase after him?"
Kong Chi: "Then let's cut our losses in time, return it to him as soon as possible, and think of another way to get rid of him."
Murong Chen: "What if he pursues me?"
Kong Chi: "Then let's lure him to a secluded place, give the dog back to him, and then keep him entertained so he doesn't ruin Daddy and Mommy's plans."
Kong Ran sneered, "Little Chichi, if you ask me, there's no need for all that trouble. Just knock him down and gag him, and that's it."
Kong Chi frowned slightly: "You think you can beat him?"
Kong Ran said, "I can't, but there are three of us, aren't there?"
Kong Chi and Murong Chen immediately took a step back: "No, it's just you alone."
Kong Ran: ? ? ?
Okay, she gave in and went to untie the dog's leash.
On the other side, Wen Sichen saw that the three little devils had left the courtyard and hadn't come over yet. He got impatient and jumped down from the side wall of the courtyard to go around to the gate to find them.
