Qin Chao's hand grasped the steering wheel tightly for a moment.

  Subconsciously, he gazed at Su Xiaoling's innocent and pure eyes through the rearview mirror.

  He pursed his lips and finally turned the car around, "I know there's a cake shop."

  The car turned seven bends and eight bends, finally stopping beside an alley in the old city district.

  Qin pointed to the old sign that read "Little Swan Cake" and said softly, "Go ahead, his sister used to buy him cakes here."

  "Hmm!"

  Su Xiaoning nodded, shouldered her backpack and got off the bus, then ran quickly towards the cake shop.

  Leaning on the driver's seat, Qin Zhaomu opened the car window and lit a cigarette for himself.

  Through the smoke, he saw that girl in cowboy pants and white T-shirt push open the old door of the cake shop.

  It seemed as if she had pushed open the long-sealed door of his heart.

  A faint smile of relief floated onto the man's face.

  The housekeeper is right, Su Xiaoning is indeed a good medicine for Mo Chenyuan.

  This girl is so kind and innocent that it's almost unreal.

  It has been thirteen years since Moqing wine passed away.

  For thirteen years, Mo Chenyu had never celebrated his birthday for himself. Everyone also took it for granted that his birthday was a gloomy and sorrowful day.

  Only Su Xiao Ning thought of it, if Mo Qing Jiu were alive, he would hope that Mo Chen Yu had a good birthday.

  After all, Mo Qing's wine back then was able to compress half a month's work into one week just for Mo Chen Yu's birthday celebration.

  Qin was smoking his third cigarette when Su Xiaoning came back with a cake.

  She carefully held the cake in her arms and said "Let's go!"

  The man glanced sideways at what Su Xiaoning was holding in her arms, "How come it's been so long?"

  Su Xiao Ning wiped the sweat from her forehead and smiled, avoiding his gaze. "The shopkeeper said there wasn't any ready-made ones, so it's freshly baked on the spot, taking a bit longer."

  Qin was hesitant and uncertain at dusk, but didn't investigate further. He drove her back to the Mo residence.

  "Why don't you come together to celebrate his birthday?"

  Su Xiao Ning looked at Qin Zhao Mu who was still sitting in the driver's seat, showing no intention of getting out of the car, and asked with a tilted head.

  "It doesn't matter."

  Qin said goodbye with a wave of his hand, "I still have things to attend to at the clinic, I'll take off first!"

  He turned the car around and sped away quickly.

  Just kidding, if Su Xiao Ning fails to celebrate Mo Chen Yu's birthday, that guy will interrogate her...

  Someone will be sent to dismantle his clinic!

  He doesn't want to get involved in this mess!

  Watching Qin Chaowu's car disappear from view, Su Xiaoning pouted with the birthday cake in her arms, "The clinic is so urgent..."

  She took a deep breath, turned around, and stepped carefully into the room, cradling the birthday cake in her arms, afraid that if she took a bigger step, the cake would topple over.

  Inside the villa, all was quiet.

  Before Su Xiaoning came back, Li Shu and the housekeeper would both greet her warmly. As soon as she returned home, the whole household would become lively.

  But today, Li saw her and just smiled faintly before turning around to get busy.

  The housekeeper looked at her, raised an eyebrow at what was in her arms, shook her head helplessly and walked away.

  The entire villa was shrouded in an eerie and cold atmosphere.

  Such air made Su Xiaoning feel somewhat uncomfortable.

  Su Xiaoning carried the cake upstairs and inquired with the servant, only then did she learn that Mo Chenyu was in the study.

  She put down her school bag, washed her face and was about to go find him when she caught sight of herself in the mirror.

  A white T-shirt and faded jeans, isn't that a bit too casual?

  Come to think of it, her husband is blind, and no matter how good she looks, he can't see it anyway.

  Is it because he can't see, so she's going to give him a birthday like this?

  She stared at herself in the mirror for a long time.

  Finally putting on slippers and going downstairs with a thud, "Housekeeper, Li Sao, help me out!"

  ——————

  Eight o'clock in the evening.

  According to Su Xiaoning's request, all the servants in the villa dispersed.

  The bodyguards were also reduced to just a few scattered ones.

  Su Xiaoning, dressed in a white lace princess dress, took a deep breath and knocked on the door of Mo Chenyuan's study.

  There is no light on in the study room.

  The moonlight shines in through the window, with a kind of thin coolness.

  Mo Xunyuan was leaning on his wheelchair in the big armchair of the study.

  His eyes were covered with a black cloth, Su Xiao Ling was not sure if he was asleep or awake, so she carefully turned on the light and walked over, "Husband?"

  The man's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

  For an entire afternoon, Mo Xunyuan listened to the reports of five financial groups from Europe and leaned back in his wheelchair, dozing off in exhaustion.

  Thirteen years ago, his dearest sister died in a fire on this day. He forced himself to be strong and bear the humiliation.

  So when he created those conglomerates and companies, the rule he set was that every year they must make a year-end summary on this day.

  He wants to remind himself not to slack off, not to stop, and not to forget those hatreds from the beginning.

  This year, good news has been coming frequently from Europe, and he is closer to his goal.

  Husband?

  Su Xiaoning spoke softly again.

  Mo Chen opened his eyes.

  A petite woman with a good figure wearing a white princess dress standing there.

  Her skin was white and translucent, under the light of the glass lamp, it looked like she was about to float away.

  A hint of astonishment flashed in his dark eyes under the black silk.

  She seems very suitable for this Lolita-style clothing, which makes her whole person lovely and innocent, with a hint of nobility.

  If you don't say it, nobody would notice that she is actually a little girl from the countryside.

  "Honey, you're awake?"

  She knew he was awake when she saw him move.

  Then she smiled and said to him, "It's time for dinner, I'll push you down to eat?"

  Mo Chen nodded slightly, "Okay."

  From his cold tone, Su Xiaoning could sense that he was indeed in a bad mood.

  It's no wonder that when she came back in the afternoon, the servants didn't even dare to breathe.

  She took a deep breath and pushed him out of the study room and down the stairs.

  The restaurant downstairs didn't turn on its lights either.

  There are several classic European candles burning on the table, and red wine and steak are placed on the table.

  The legendary candlelight dinner.

  Su Xiao Ning's heart was out of rhythm.

  She just asked Li and the housekeeper to help prepare, she planned to give Mo Chenyu a birthday.

  They gave her such a grand arrangement?

  This was actually her first time really seeing what a candlelight dinner looked like.

  She had only seen him on TV before.

  She doesn't even know how to cut steak properly.

  It's probably... like cutting pork or something...

  Looking at everything on the dinner table, Mo Chenyuan slightly narrowed his eyes and his voice was cold, "What's for dinner?"

  "Eat... Western food and birthday cake."

  Su Xiao Ning pushed him to the side of the dinner table and opened her mouth carefully.

  Mo Chenyu's voice grew even colder, "Birthday cake?"

  "What did Qin say to you in the evening?"

  Su Xiao Ning's lips tightened slightly as she nodded, "Mm-hmm."

  "Has he ever told you that I've never had a birthday?"
