Chapter 784 (1/2)

An Xunuo had to admit that the cake was delicious. It was sweet but not too greasy, and it left a fragrant smell in the mouth. This was the best dessert that she had eaten. It seemed like the young man had good baking skills.

She enjoyed the small cake a lot and wanted to eat more, but she was embarra.s.sed as she had just said that she did not like to eat sweet stuff. Ye Ningyuan smiled and looked at her. Xunuo cleared her throat and suddenly stretched out her hand to s.h.i.+ft the cake over and cut a big piece for herself. “I’m hungry.”

Ye Ningyuan laughed out loud, feeling that An Xunuo was quite cute.

She happened to cut away the words ‘Nuo Nuo’ on the cake. Ye Ningyuan saw it and looked down, but he did not stop her. She did not see his expression as the cake was really delicious. Therefore, she only focused on eating the cake.

In the past, he would be the only one celebrating Nuo Nuo’s birthday, and he always did so for the past few years. He knew that n.o.body had celebrated her birthday for her, and Nuo Nuo had never experienced that kind of happiness. He helped her celebrate for so many years, but it was not in her memory. He could not help but feel sad when he thought of this.

He would rather shorten his life for a few decades in exchange for her life, but there was no such deal in the world. He only wanted to let her know that there was still someone that remembered and thought of her in this world. He was waiting for her to come back.

He started to believe that ghosts and G.o.ds did exist in this world because of how special his sister, Ye Hailan was. He also started to believe that his longing for her could transcend the world of the dead and alive and reach her.

“Who are you celebrating the birthday for?” An Xunuo knew that she should not ask, but she was very curious. However, she regretted it after asking as they were still not close with each other. It did not seem appropriate to ask him about this.

“My wife!”

An Xunuo was eating the cake and suddenly choked. She coughed and grabbed the lemon water to drink. As the cake and fruit platter took up a lot of s.p.a.ce on the small table, the lemon water was placed together and An Xunuo accidentally grabbed Ye Ningyuan’s gla.s.s. He wanted to remind her that she had taken the wrong gla.s.s, but she had already drunk it.

Xunuo realized that she had taken the wrong gla.s.s after drinking a few sips and coughed. She paused, gritted her teeth, and coughed again. Her face started to become a little red. She calmly put down the gla.s.s and acted as if she did not realize it. But, he had caught her expressions and knew what she was thinking about. He admired her for being able to act so calmly and could not help but smile.

It had been many years since he was so happy.

Especially on this day.

“You’re married?” She had never been so out of control. She had never forgotten herself no matter what dangerous or unimaginable news she heard.

But, she was very shocked when she heard that. She had looked him up before, and it did not state that he was married. She was from an intelligence organization, and her information should not be wrong.

She was starting to question her own ability.

“I want to marry her, but it’s too bad that I don’t have such a chance.” Ye Ningyuan smiled and said calmly as if he was talking about someone else’s story. “Her name is Xu Nuo. She is Xu Xing’s sister, but she has pa.s.sed away.”
