Chapter 1192: Give Him a Surprise
Chapter 1192: Give Him a Surprise
"Never had the habit of celebrating birthdays before." Yu Longting lowered his eyes, his pupils turning a beautiful deep green, like clear emerald, "But now with Dumpling, I feel like I could celebrate. Will you celebrate for me?"
Dumpling and I nodded enthusiastically together; the little guy really wants to celebrate Dad’s birthday too.
"Yes, yes, yes, not only will I celebrate, but I’ve also prepared a gift for you. It’s definitely something you’ll like." I held onto Longting’s arm, planning to take him out for a meal.
But Longting pulled me and turned into the kitchen where the chef was preparing dinner.
There was a special stove cleared, with a medicine pot on it, "The medicine pot is hot. You hold Dumpling, and I’ll take the medicine pot."
"Okay!" I watched them as the father-son duo were so harmonious, yet I resisted the craving and hadn’t held Dumpling yet.
Now, being able to hold my adorable Little Dumpling, I naturally agreed immediately.
Upstairs, Longting poured the medicine into a bowl.
I placed Dumpling on the ground and handed the medicine bowl to him, "You want to drink by yourself? It might be a bit bitter."
Little Dumpling silently took the medicine bowl, tilting his head back to drink without any hesitation.
Watching Dumpling drink down the tonic meticulously.
Longting said, "Wife, the gift I want most is for you to call me all day long."
"Cough, cough, cough, cough..." Little Dumpling choked a bit.
I hurried to pat Dumpling’s back, "Dumpling? Are you alright?"
Dumpling shook his head at me, indicating he was fine, and gave Longting a helpless look.
Clearly saying, "Dad, can you not be so suddenly cheesy? I’m still a baby."
"Call what? Husband?" I realized Longting is really boring, boring to the point where even his son is tired of him.
Not only boring but also especially lacking in romance. Watching me shout until my voice is hoarse, is he happy?
Longting chuckled softly, "Of course, Snake Brother. You shouting that, I feel it the most."
"Enough, don’t talk anymore. I’ll go boil water; let’s have instant noodles tonight, it’s simpler." I didn’t feel like cooking, nor did I want Longting to cook.
Didn’t want to spend money on takeout, eating instant noodles became the first choice.
Longting didn’t oppose, just advised, "Don’t eat the pickled cabbage flavor."
"Okay." I already had the water boiling, just waiting to eat instant noodles with sausages.
In the evening, Longting and I each busied ourselves.
He handled sect matters using the Jade Tablet, while I continued having Dumpling teach me Hand Seals.
Proven true, the saying of the early bird catches the worm.
At least those particularly difficult Hand Seals in the Zhang Family’s book, I can complete almost in a second.
When facing enemies, it increases speed and reduces the skills’ cooldown.
Preventing the possibility of chant interruptions or getting hit, significantly increasing my survival rate in fights.
By eleven forty-five at night, I had already put Dumpling to sleep in advance.
I specifically asked Longting if he finished handling his business; once confirmed, I started preparing the surprise.
"I don’t have much to do now. Are you... giving me a gift at midnight? Is it definitely a surprise, not a shock?" Longting surprisingly has deep doubt about the gift I’m giving.
Unbelievably, I haven’t left a reliable impression in his heart all along!
Apart from that one time knocking him over after drinking, I was obviously a good girl growing up, never did anything outrageous, "Hopefully it won’t be a shock. Two more minutes to go, Longting, I’ll give you an unforgettable lifetime birthday."
"You... saying that makes me feel uneasy instead. Could you possibly already have one? Doing that kind of thing for seven days, can it be checked yet?" Longting pinched my chin, his eyes ablaze with a ghostly blue Nether Flame, already intending to kiss.
