After finally taking away the extremely embarrassing and hot potato, Autumn Leaf turned around and saw that he was leaning against the dining room wall, staring at her with a complicated expression.

Afraid that he would see through her uneasiness, she hurriedly lowered her head, took out a lighter from her pocket, and handed it to him.

"Cheung, happy birthday!"

Stealthily glancing at the clock on the wall, oh, good, it's not past 12 yet, there's still time.

He just stood there and didn't move. He just looked at the lighter in her hand. His face gradually turned dark.

"Who gave you permission to give me a birthday?"

He suddenly took a step forward and grabbed her by the neck, forcing her mercilessly into a corner. She was so frightened that she didn't even dare to make a sound.

"Do you know what day it is?"

The strength in his hands increased, and he pinched Autumn Leaf so hard that she could barely breathe.

"Cough cough …" Isn't it your birthday? "

"It's my birthday!"

His eyes suddenly shone with a terrible coldness and a flash of pain.

"But it's also the day of my parents' sacrifice!"

"Ah?" Right... "I'm sorry!"

Autumn Leaf realized that she had made a fatal mistake. One's birthday was supposed to be celebrated, but if that day was the anniversary of her parents' death, there probably wouldn't be many people who would be in the mood to celebrate their birthday.

The pain in his eyes made her heart clench.

"Sorry, sorry, I really didn't do it on purpose …"

She suddenly felt like tears were about to flow down her face. If she had known earlier, she definitely wouldn't have done such a damned thing.

He coldly released her and staggered towards the bedroom. She quickly followed and carefully supported him. She could feel the pain coming from his body. Her tears finally couldn't hold back as they dripped down onto the thick carpet and disappeared in an instant.

Wiping away her tears, she braced herself to take care of him as he lay down on the bed. She began to take off his clothes again, and as he kept waving his hands to refuse her touch, like an unreasonable child, she couldn't help but chuckle.

When she finally changed his pajamas for him, he had already fallen asleep. However, in his sleep, he was still frowning and his face was full of sadness. She squatted on the bed and looked at him.

Autumn Leaf pursed her lips in satisfaction. He did not have his usual ruthlessness and seriousness, instead, he looked like a well-behaved child. She could not help but get up, lightly smiling, and secretly kiss him on his beautiful lips.

Suddenly, his black eyes snapped open and she was immediately scared stiff. She blankly blinked her large eyes. Didn't he sleep so deeply? How did he wake up?

Actually, Zhuang Shili had already woken up when her small hand touched his forehead. His life of licking blood from the blade had made him always have a light sleep.

Her small mouth was still pressed tightly against his, and her black eyes were slightly narrowed. After a moment of dizziness, she was already beneath him, and he was half awake and half drunk as he whispered into her ear.

"Autumn Leaf …" "Don't try to tempt me, for fear I won't leave you with even a bone to eat!"

"I... I... "I …"

His scorching aura surrounded her body, and Autumn Leaf blushed, not knowing what to say.

Autumn Leaf did not resist and let him hug her obediently. She knew that he needed comfort now, so she buried her head deep into her soft neck. She heard his low voice.

"My parents... I also died when I was very young! "

Autumn Leaf's heart trembled. His parents … He died too? She had always thought that with his status, he should have a distinguished family.

He buried himself in the nape of her neck and said,

"They actually love each other very much... I love you to the end of my life... So I have always rejected love, because I am afraid that one day I will also face such a painful parting! "

After spending half a year together, this was the first time he had confided his feelings to her. She had thought that he was an ironclad, unbreakable, and unbreakable sort of person, but now she understood that even the coldest of people had their own frailty. He just didn't say it, but that didn't mean he didn't have it.

As he spoke in a low voice, or perhaps it was the influence of the alcohol, he actually fell asleep against her body and gently called out to her. Seeing that he did not respond, she gently got out of bed, changed into her pajamas and got back into bed.

This time, she shifted her position, no longer leaning into his arms, but putting her arms around the back of his neck and hugging him tightly. Although it seemed funny that her petite body would accommodate his, he never said he needed to lean on her, so let her lean on him tonight.

The next morning, when Zhuang Li woke up and saw himself in her arms in this position, an almost imperceptible look of awkwardness flashed across his grave face. Anger tore her arms and legs off her body, and then she quickly got up.

However, she was still deeply asleep. She pouted with dissatisfaction and then lazily turned over to continue sleeping, not being woken up in the slightest by his rude actions.

As he was putting on his clothes, he suddenly noticed the lighter on the table. He reached out to take it and idly played with it. It was just an ordinary black lighter.

He turned around and looked at the person who was still sleeping, the tranquil face, the lovable temperament, and under the morning sunlight, the woman who was as beautiful as a ink painting. With a raise of his eyebrows, he put the lighter back into his pocket.

As he was walking out of the door, he suddenly caught a glimpse of that exquisite little cake inside the restaurant. His tall and straight figure paused for a moment, but still walked towards it with large strides.

Standing in the small dining room, staring at the delicious cake, he felt a crack in his heart as she forced her way in with a little bit of stubbornness.

A complicated expression surfaced in his eyes as he looked deeply at the Japanese written in chocolate sauce. He took the cake and went out the door. Since it was for him, he would treat it as breakfast this morning and eat it together with her "I love you".

Since the death of his parents, this was the first time he had received a birthday present and a birthday cake, so he had to admit that this woman had the guts. However, since the death of his parents, this was the first time he had received a birthday cake.

When Autumn Leaf woke up, there was already no one by her side. She woke up in a daze to check the time. Fortunately, she didn't have any classes today, so she could still sleep for a bit.

Just as he crawled into bed, Shu Can called. Autumn Leaf's first response was to ask anxiously.

"Senior, did that man do anything to you yesterday?"

Yesterday she called her cell phone, but it was always off.

"Oh."

Shu Ming paused for a moment before saying,

"I'm fine!"

"Really? But that person yesterday looked really fierce! "

Autumn Leaf was extremely suspicious. The relationship between that man and her senior was definitely not that simple.

"Aiya, I'm fine now, but you, did you give that lighter to him?"

Shu Can suddenly asked her mysteriously.

"I gave it to you, why?"

she asked, getting out of bed and going to get a glass of water.

"Then how did he react?"

Shu Can continued to remain mysterious.

What kind of reaction could he have? He's drunk! Last night …" "Ah!

She suddenly let out a terrified scream.

As she was fetching water from the water dispenser, she inadvertently glanced at the dining room and discovered that the cake had actually disappeared without a trace! My cake —! "

She screamed and rushed into the dining room and looked around.

"Where's my cake? Where's my cake? "

"What the hell are you shouting about in the early morning? "What cake?"

Shu Can rubbed her ears and complained.

"I made him a cake for his birthday yesterday …"

Autumn Leaf explained wildly, her little figure scurrying about the room.

"Isn't it just a cake? What's there to be nervous about? "Look at you, look at how you're crying like a ghost …"

Shu Can was still there teasing her.

"But …" "But …"

But her secret was written on it, and it was a secret that couldn't be told. Autumn Leaf was so worried that she was about to cry. He was no longer in the mood to entertain her teasing. Instead, he was searching for her cake from inside out.

God, he couldn't have taken it away!

Wasn't he still there when he slept last night?

She suddenly remembered that during the period when she was recuperating at the villa, he had corrected her pronunciation. That was, he understood the language, and it wasn't just a normal understanding either!

Oh, God!

Autumn Leaf lay limply on the sofa, tightly wrinkling her little face. She wanted to cry, but had no tears.

Just as her head started to hurt, Shu Can's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Autumn Leaf, there's something I want to tell you. Actually …" Giving someone a lighter … It's his wish to refuse the marriage! "

"What?"
