Chapter 824 - My Dear Tingting, I Wish You Happy Birthday, and Become Uglier and Uglier
Chapter 824: My Dear Tingting, I Wish You Happy Birthday, and Become Uglier and Uglier
After a short sleep, she realized that Nian Junting woke her up only to hear her say ‘happy birthday’.
She turned, gave Nian Junting a glare, then said, “I know that today is your birthday, but do you have to wake me up for that? I’m a pregnant woman.”
Nian Junting was looking at his phone. Hearing her words, he gave her a glance and said to her, “How can you say that? Other people have wished me happy birthday, only you haven’t.”
I’m sleeping in the same bed with you. Do you have to push me so hard for that? She complained silently.
She wasn’t as sleepy as before. Noticing that Nian Junting’s phone was buzzing all the time, she got up from the bed and moved to him to see who was sending him messages. She found that many people were messaging him, including Xiao Si, Feng Ji Chuan, An Lan, and Nian Xi. Perhaps she really should have wished him a happy birthday earlier. However, as a pregnant lady, she was always tired and sleepy.
“You are not staying up only to hear me wish you happy birthday, are you?” She asked.
“Is that even possible?” Nian Junting gave her a proud glance and said, “Every year, there was always a bunch of people wishing me happy birthday on WeChat. Those messages would wake me up anyway, so I didn’t go to sleep earlier. Well, sometimes, being too popular can really bring you some small problems. You wouldn’t understand. After all, you only have one good friend, Yan Su.”
Luosang stayed silent.
Damn you. I know it’s your birthday and that you’re proud, but you don’t need to touch someone else’s sore spot just to brag about yourself, she thought.
“Chi Shengxu was my good friend. You are too strict on me so I lost many male friends,” said Luosang unhappily.
“You’re not popular. Don’t blame others for that.”
Luosang gave up arguing with him. She opened Xiaosi’s message on Nian Junting’s phone —’My dear Tingting, I wish you happy birthday, and that you get uglier and uglier, and be abandoned by Sangsang every single day, and lose every game you play.’
Alright, that is the worst friend in the world, she thought.
CEO Nian replied to him—’Thank you, I wish you are single forever.’
Luosang didn’t say anything but pulled up her blanket and went to sleep.
Next morning, when Nian Junting got up, Luosang lazily took out her phone from her drawer to check her friends’ WeChat moments.
00:05, CEO Nian made a post—’Luo woke me up at twelve and whispered in my ear’, “Happy birthday, my dear husband. I want to celebrate your every birthday together with you.”‘I feel so happy. This birthday is meant to be different.’
A series of comments were left under that post.
Xiao Si—’Why don’t I believe you?’
Nian Xi—’Are you sure it wasn’t you waking my sister-in-law up?
Murong Cheng—’Are you sure you didn’t wake up Sangsang instead?
Mo Liuxi—’Who allowed you to sleep in the same bed with Xu Luosang?’
Mo Jin –’Mo Liuxi, call her sister. Don’t make me hit you.’
Ji Nuanyi—’Happy birthday, Mr. Nian.’
Yan Su—’Happy Birthday, Mr. Nian. Please don’t forget that Sangsang should avoid all kinds of intense exercise just now.’
Sister Lan—’Young Master, happy birthday. Please let Sangsang sleep.’
CEP Nian replied everyone—’Thank you all for your good wishes. Some people are mean to me because they are jealous of me. I won’t mention their names.’
Luosang dropped her phone. She felt speechless.
She went downstairs and unexpectedly found that Nian Junting wasn’t there.
She asked Sister Lan where he was and she told her that he went to work.
She called him and said, “Working on your birthday?”
“I have to. You have accidentally become the daughter of an heir of the Morrison Family. I need to work hard, to earn more money so I can match you,” Nian Junting laughed. “I’ll pick you up at eleven. We’ll have lunch at Yuzhen Restaurant. I’ve invited your mother and Liuxi so they’ll be there.”
“Oh, alright.” Luosang paused briefly, then said, “Your WeChat post…”
“I have lots of work to do, see you.”
Nian Junting ended the call.
Standing beside him, Lu Kang said, “Mr. Nian, no work is so urgent. You still have the time to talk to Miss. Xu.”
“I am a man who can clearly distinguish between working time and personal time,” Nian Junting responded bluntly, then turned on his computer, showing his cold side to Lu Kang.
Lu Kang didn’t know how to respond.
Who reads astrology books and sweet-talking strategies at work? Lu Kang thought. You can never be too shameless.
At eleven o’clock, Luosang got into the Maybach. She was wearing a pleated dress and her hair was coiled into a bun. She looked adorable and also sexy. No one could tell that she was over three months pregnant.
Recently she always wore pajamas and T-shirts at home. Nian Junting hadn’t seen her so well dressed in quite a while, so seeing her, his eyes glowed.
“Luo, is this my birthday surprise?” he said.
“Yeah, you see, I changed my clothes a couple of times before leaving home. Can I not give you a present?” Luosang joked.
“In your dreams,” said Nian Junting.
Luosang snorted, “Your WeChat post…”
Before she finished, Nian Junting pulled her closer and whispered to her, “Lu Kang is driving. Don’t embarrass me.”
Luosang was speechless. You don’t want embarrassed, huh? Why didn’t you think about that when you made up that lie? She thought.
However, she decided to turn a blind eye as it was his birthday.
“Are you sure that the lunch will be peaceful?” Luosang sighed. Nian Family, Murong Family, Mo Jin and Mo Liuxi would be together. That sounded very complicated.
“It has to be. I’ll talk about our wedding.” Nian Junting held her hand and said, “You are pregnant. We can’t postpone the wedding any longer or your family might be unhappy.”
Luosang nodded. She was still nervous though.
In the VIP room in the restaurant, Murong Cheng, Murong Ze and his wife arrived first. Sitting beside Murong Cheng was a gentle-looking man wearing glasses. He was a middle-aged man but looked very healthy and energetic. Sitting together, Murong Cheng and him looked like a perfect couple.
Luosang was surprised to see him.
Murong Cheng introduced him to Nian Junting and Luosang, “This is Jiang Yi. Junting, I think you know him.”
“I’ve heard so much about you.” Nian Junting shook hands with him and said, “Uncle Jiang, I’ve read a lot of your books about finance when I first entered the financial industry. You have very unique viewpoints.”
“I was being an armchair strategist, while you are doing a really good job in the business world.” Jiang Yi gave a smile.
Yu Wen said, “I wouldn’t sit together with Nian Family people if it’s not your thirtieth birthday.”
“Alright, the guests will be arriving soon,” Murong Ze reminded her.
Before long, Xiao Si arrived. After him, came Mo Jin and Mo Liuxi.
Nian Junting introduced them to the others. Looking at Mo Liuxi, Murong Cheng couldn’t stop smiling. “Sangsang, your brother is so pretty. When I was pregnant with Junting, I wanted a pretty boy too. But in the end, I had a naughty son.”
“My son was naughty too.” Mo Jin gave an awkward smile.
