Chapter 118 - Blue rose (1/2)

”Happy Birthday, Yin Ze.”

Xiong Zhi's calm voice sounded in his ear.

With just the small light from both of the flowers, the sincere eyes and slightly smiling lips of Xiong Zhi were illuminated. Her eyes reflected the silver-blue lights.

Then lights behind her with different colors appeared one by one. They are like a sea of stars that keep expanding. The people behind Xiong Zhi who were holding the candle that produce the lights shouted 'happy birthday' as well.

Then silver-blue tiny lights suddenly appeared from above. The ceiling of the Luxury garden was full of different flowers. There were tiny lights that were hanged above as well. It was like the sea of flowers and stars were mixed in.

The water fountains start to run as well. Once the rushing of water sounded in the surroundings, the butterflies that we're sleeping in the flowers woke up and fly. Different types of butterflies greeted Lu Yin Ze and the guest.

The scene was so captivating.

Lu Yin Ze did not speak. Nor he could speak. He was still staring at Xiong Zhi. His heart did not calm down. It was still thumping fast.

He put a hand to his chest. He feels like his heart would run. His ears keep repeating the words 'happy birthday, Yin Ze', the crowds cheerful 'happy birthday'.

Was he so happy that his heart could not calm down? He hides his face behind his hair.

Yes. He was so happy.

Lu Yin Ze was just dead silent.

Xiong Zhi was still standing at the same spot. She noticed that Lu Yin Ze has a hand on his chest.

Xiong Zhi began to worry. Did they scare him?

”Are you okay?”

She took a step forward to see if he was okay.

But Lu Yin Ze steps back.

”I'm okay. ” He said that but his voice croaked.

Then Xiong Zhi saw it clearly. Lu Yin Ze looks sideways and quickly wipe the lone tear that escapes in his eyes. He turned around and looked up to stop the tears that threaten to come down.

If he cried now, his image as a man would be destroyed.

He never felt this warm and happy before.

He grows up in the hospital. With few doctors, nurses, and guards around. He doesn't like books but it was the only thing that he could rely on to explore the things outside the four walls.

What it feels like to study in school?

What it feels like to travel?

What it feels like to have friends to support you and to fight with you?

What it feels like to be outside?

That's the only thing that keeps running on his head.

He never expected that he would experience such a pleasant surprise like this.

He was a boy who cried in little things after all.

But the tears that threaten to come down were tears of joy.

”Aiyah! Are you crying?” Song Xuantin appeared beside them and teased Lu Yin Ze.

”Don't cry! You haven't received my gift and Gu Zhen's gift yet. ” Song Xuantin added.

”Gift?” Lu Yin Ze turned around. His silver-blue eyes were still glistening.

”Yeah. This is only Xiong Zhi's gift. Mine and Gu Zhen will be later. That time, you can cry then.” Song Xuantin explained.

'Why would I cry to your gift?' Lu Yin Ze wanted to rebut but then he caught a more important matter.

”You prepared this?” Lu Yin Ze asked Xiong Zhi.

Xiong Zhi nodded then shook her head.
