Chapter 33: Mengmeng's Birthday

  Wu Mengui and Lin Hui walked hand in hand through one street after another. At this time, it seemed as if the time was passing particularly quickly, and before they knew it, half an hour had passed.

  "What are you thinking about?" Lin Hui finally broke the silence, turning his head to face Wu Mengqi.

  Wu Mengui seemed a bit unresponsive and said unnaturally, "Ah, nothing."

  Seeing Wu Mengqi like this, Lin Hui burst out laughing.

  Wu Mengqi saw Lin Hui laughing so happily and suddenly pretended to be angry, saying "Don't you let me go yet?"

  "After being in contact for so long, Lin Hui didn't understand Wu Mengqi at all. Suddenly, he said, 'Only a fool would let go.' If Wu Mengqi wasn't willing, she wouldn't have been willing a long time ago, and there's no way she'd still be waiting until now."

  "What a thick skin!" Upon hearing this, Wu Mengqi said with a bit of anger, but deep down, she felt a hint of sweetness.

  Lin Hui smiled slightly with some complacency.

  The two people were very tacit and did not choose to take a car, so they slowly walked back to school.

  It was already past 10 o'clock at night when the two of them returned to school.

  Girls' dormitory building downstairs.

  "Can you let go now?" Wu Mengqi's two eyes stared at Lin Hui.

  Lin Hui finally let go, anyway there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. "Go upstairs and rest early."

  "En." Wu Mengqi nodded obediently.

  Lin Hui hadn't returned to his dormitory yet when he received a text message from Wu Mengqi.

  "Big rascal, go to bed early tonight, no staying up late!" The message was followed by a pig head emoji.

  Lin Hui returned to her dormitory in high spirits.

  Although Lin Hui appeared calm on the surface, he couldn't hide his inner excitement. After all, this was something he had previously only dared to hope for, and hadn't even thought about much. Although he was now under the influence of Ling Tian's soul, many things remained unchanged.

  Wu Mengui couldn't calm down after returning to her dormitory. She had never thought that she would fall in love at university, let alone accept a man she had only known for over a month.

  Thinking of the experience of getting to know Lin Hui, and then later running into each other at school... thinking about all the little moments with Lin Hui over the past month or so, Wu Menggui couldn't help but let out a sweet smile on her face.

  After a long time, Wu Mengui finally fell asleep.

  The next day, after class in the afternoon, the two made an appointment to meet under the teaching building.

  Before he had even descended the stairs, Lin Hui saw Wu Mengqi's lovely figure. Her two hands were holding two books, standing quietly there with a faint smile on her face, looking so fresh and captivating.

  "Meng Qi." Lin Hui called out.

  Seeing Lin Hui and Ye Jinghao together, Wu Mengqi's face flashed a faint unnaturalness.

  "You two...?" Just a moment later, Ye Jinghao discovered that something was off about the two of them and looked at them with some curiosity.

  Wu Mengui didn't have Lin Hui's thick skin, and when she saw the gaze of Ye Jinghao and the other two people, her face suddenly felt hot, making her look even more unnatural.

  "Never mind, let's go first." Lin Hui didn't bother to explain and directly pulled Wu Menggui away.

  The moment her hand was pulled, Wu Mengqi's heart suddenly quickened. To know that there were no familiar people around last night, but now many people are watching.

  After a brief struggle, Wu Mengui compromised.

  At this time, Ye Jinghao and three others were already stunned.

  "Unbelievable, won't it? Has it really been settled?" Yan Ke said with a tone of disbelief, as if only a little over a month had passed.

  Ye Jinghao's expression was not as exaggerated as Ke Xuan's, "The fact is probably like this, it seems we all underestimated Lin Hui..."

  "Hiding deeply and not leaking." Looking at the two people's distant figures, Li Lifen also said thoughtfully.

  Lin Hui didn't know that his action had already shocked three people behind him, and at this time he was secretly pleased with himself.

  "You're just a rascal." Looking at Lin Hui like that, Wu Menghui said with a huff.

  Lin Hui smiled and said, "You've only just realized now? It's already too late."

  Wu Mengqi pretended to be indifferent to Lin Hui. After taking down the gift she bought last night, the two of them went directly to Mengmeng's home.

  Mengmeng lives with her grandparents in a small district next to the school.

  More than twenty minutes later, the two people arrived at Momo's home. After ringing the doorbell for a short while, the door was opened by Momo herself.

  Seeing Lin Hui and Wu Mengqi, Mengmeng suddenly exclaimed with joy, "I knew it was Uncle and Sister Mengqi who came." Today's Mengmeng wore a big red coat, looking particularly festive, her long hair tied into a ponytail, looking exceptionally lively and cute.

  "Grandpa and grandma, uncle and Mengqi sister have arrived." Mengmeng shouted towards the inside, saying that she pulled two people in with one hand each.

  Soon, Lin Hui saw Mengmeng's grandfather and grandmother. Seeing the two people arrive, Wang Jiawen's face was filled with smiles, and he kindly said, "Mengqi, Lin Hui, you two sit down for a while, dinner will be ready soon."

  After chatting for a few sentences, Wang Jia and his wife went back to the kitchen to busy themselves.

  "Mengmeng, this is the birthday gift that I and your sister Mengyi gave you." Lin Hui handed over the gift he bought last night to Mengmeng.

  Seeing the gift, Mengmeng's eyes lit up instantly, "Thank you Uncle and Mengui sister."

  Just as the two were chatting with Mengmeng, the doorbell rang. Mengmeng ran to open the door very enthusiastically and saw two elderly people who were about the same age as Wang Jiawen walk in.

  "Grandpa Zhang, Grandpa Sun." Mengmeng immediately called out sweetly upon seeing the two men.

  "Little Moe Moe, do you miss Grandpa Zhang?" said a smiling face with a bit of mischief.

  Meng Meng pouted and looked at Zhang Chusheng with a hint of resentment, saying, "Grandpa Zhang, Meng Meng has grown up now, so you can't call me Little Meng Meng anymore. If you do, I won't talk to you in the future." As she spoke, she slightly tilted her head.

  Zhang Chusheng and Sun Minghao were amused by this and burst out laughing, "Alright, alright, we won't call you that anymore. From now on, we'll just call you Mengmeng."

  At this time, Wang Jia Wen also walked out of the kitchen.

  "I said you two come together, what else are you bringing?" Wang Jiawen said with a smile.

  Zhang Chusheng said, "How can Miao's birthday not bring a gift? Otherwise, what if she doesn't recognize me as her grandfather?" As he spoke, he handed over the prepared gift to Miao, and Sun Minghao also had a gift ready.

  It's obvious that both of them like Momo very much.

  Meng Meng didn't immediately open those two gifts, but carefully hid them under the coffee table, then pulled the two people onto the sofa.

  "Grandpa Zhang, Grandpa Sun, let me introduce you. This is my uncle Lin Hui and sister Meng Qi. And oh, Uncle's magic skills are amazing, even better than Uncle Liu Qian." Mengmeng said, turning her head to face Lin Hui and the others, "This is Grandpa Zhang and Grandpa Sun, they're really good to me."

  Through the conversation of several people before, Lin Hui had already felt that the two were very close to Wang Jiawen. The one with a kind face and a bit of an old naughty look was Zhang Chusheng, while the one who revealed a hint of majesty between his eyebrows was Sun Minghao.

  Lin Hui and Wu Mengqi both politely asked how they were doing.

  "Lin Hui and Meng Qi are both students in our school, they personally invited the guests." Wang Jiawen walked over with a smile.

  "It's not easy to get us to personally invite you, haha." Upon hearing Wang Jia Wen say this, Zhang Chu Sheng immediately laughed and said, Sun Ming Hao was also smiling as he looked at the two of them.

  Soon, the dishes were served, and this was a simple birthday party. The guests, apart from Lin Hui and Wu Mengqi, were only Zhang Chusheng and Sun Minghao.

  At the dinner table, Mengmeng naturally became the protagonist. Compared to ordinary children, Mengmeng seems much more mature, sometimes suddenly coming up with a sentence that can make everyone laugh out loud, and with Mengmeng around, meals are always very lively.

  Today Lin Hui finally truly experienced Mengmeng's mischievous and cunning nature.

  After dinner, a huge cake was brought to the table. After lighting the candles on the cake, Wang Jiawen turned off the lights in the restaurant.

  Looking at the cake in front of her, Mengmeng closed her eyes, her two small hands clasped together on her chest. Nearly half a minute later, Mengmeng blew out the eight candles.

  "Mengmeng, what wish did you make?" Zhang Chusheng said with a smile.

  Meng Meng tilted her head and said, "I'm not telling you, the TV says that if wishes are spoken out loud, they won't come true..."

  In the blink of an eye, half an hour had passed, and Mengmeng's face was already painted with butter to look like a kitten, and Linhui and Wumenggui's faces were also smeared with a lot of butter by Mengmeng.

  Just as a few people were chatting and laughing, Wang Jia Wen and two others walked out of the study with something in their hands.

  Soon Lin Hui knew that Wang Jiawen was preparing to write, and what he brought was indeed pen, ink, paper and inkstone. As for these things, Lin Hui was still very familiar with them.

  Due to the influence of his father's fondness for calligraphy, Lin Hui started writing brush pen characters at a very young age. Practicing calligraphy had become one of Lin Hui's habits until he gradually lost touch with it after entering university.
