Lu Yining's breathing was stagnant, as if she was suddenly sent into the air, her mind was blank for a second, and in this second, she heard the low voice of the man in her ear: "Happy birthday."

Lu Yining pursed the corners of his mouth, and his eyes suddenly became hot.

"25 years old?"

"……Ok."

The man lowered his head, his voice seemed to be the lowest, and asked close to her earlobe, "Is it okay to make you an adult?"

Chapter 77

A few seconds before these words were spoken, Lu Yining was still immersed in the joy of seeing Tang Mubai suddenly, unable to extricate himself.

After all, she is now alone in a foreign country, and today is her birthday again. Although a group of people are celebrating her birthday at home thousands of miles away, it is still different from being by her side.

The colleague who travels with her is not particularly good, let alone anyone who remembers her birthday, it is estimated that no one even knows her birthday.

After tonight's dinner, her birthday this year seemed especially deserted.

Lu Yining's heart beat faster and faster, and there was a piece of water vapor rising rapidly in her eyes - the premise was that she hadn't realized what Tang Mubai meant.

Lu Yining's brain was not slow to respond. After the excitement passed, Tang Mubai's words rang in his ears several times.

"Make you an adult."

Lu Yining just turned 25 years old today. No matter which dynasty or country is divided by age, she is already an "adult".

She knew that Tang Mubai wouldn't say anything good in his mouth. The corner of his mouth was pulled, the wetness in his eyes was forced back, and he gritted his teeth and said, "No."

Tang Mubai's mouth curved, "Okay."

As if he was just saying a joke, he let go of her and changed the subject: "Have you had dinner tonight?"

Lu Yining looked up at him, "I've eaten."

Although didn't eat much, stomach was at least not empty.

Lu Yining looked at the dining car with cakes and roses again. She didn't waste her time asking if he ordered it, but asked directly, "Why did you come to the United States?"

After a few seconds, she asked tentatively, "Are you also here for a business trip?"

"No," Tang Mubai denies very succinctly. He seems to never know what the word "obscure" means. He leaned down slightly and stared into her eyes and replied, "Come to see you."

Lu Yining suddenly felt a little thirsty, and while pursing the corners of his mouth, his throat also pressed down gently.

Tang Mubai was still standing at the door, the lights in the corridor hit him, dragging his shadow so long that it completely covered Lu Yining, he raised his eyelashes and glanced around the room, "I don't plan to let me in. Sit down?"

Lu Yining felt that the chef at night had put too much salt, so she had been feeling dry mouth all the time.

She is not a three-year-old child. She lives alone in the same room. She knows better than anyone what might happen after this night.

Lu Yining took a few deep breaths, her fingers clenched and loosened, she stood at the door for more than half a minute, and finally retreated half a step as if compromised.

The man outside the door smiled slightly, and his eyes deepened: "You let me in."

It was good that he didn't say this sentence at first, but as soon as this sentence came out, he was like a strange uncle, specializing in abducting ignorant girls.

Lu Yining's heart skipped a beat, "Then go out."

How could Tang Mubai listen to him, he closed the door with his backhand, and then he locked it directly. Then he turned his head to look at him, and the curvature of the corner of his mouth widened a little: "It's too late."

It's over, it's more like now.

Obviously nothing has happened yet, but Lu Yining's heart has begun to beat wildly after being frightened.

Tang Mubai was different. He looked calm as if the person who said these words was not him. He took her hand with one hand and pulled her to the edge of the sofa to sit down. Then he gently pressed her shoulder, and the other Pushing the dining cart this way.

He turned on his side, stuck a candle in his right hand on the cake, and pressed the lighter again.

The blue flame flickered, and the candle was quickly lit. Tang Mubai tilted his head and looked over, "Would you like to make a wish?"

Lu Yining never closed her eyes to make a wish on the birthday cake since she was a child, but today she didn't know what was going on, she really closed her eyes under Tang Mubai's gaze.

There was still a faint flicker of fire in front of him, and Lu Yining's head became blank again after countless wishes poured out in a mess.

She had so many wishes that she didn't know which one to start with for a while.

I wish that family would be healthy, and wish that Lu Yizhou would not be like her and have a good childhood... wish that she and Tang Mubai could be like this until the end.

Lu Yining never felt that she was a greedy person, but at this moment until the flickering candlelight in front of her was getting dimmer and dim, she did not make a complete wish.

For a few minutes, Tang Mubai stood in front of her, watching her frown and loosen, and then lightly frown again.

He squatted down and said softly, "Yi Ning."

Lu Yining's voice was equally soft, "Well."

"Are you okay?"

Lu Yining closed his eyes for a few seconds, then opened his eyes and gently blew out the candle.

"What wish did you make?"

"I won't tell you," Lu Yining took out the burned candle with only one tail left. "It's impossible to tell."

Her ears were a little red, and she didn't look at Tang Mubai. She lowered her head and cut the cake, putting a small piece on it for both herself and Tang Mubai, "Have you had dinner yet?"

"Eat on the plane."
