Chapter 139: His Birthday Present

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Gu Ci walked up to him, and they looked at the moon together. She spoke with a double entendre, “Isn’t it beautiful?”

Lu Zhiyuan remained silent, his eyes as dark as the night.

A gentle breeze blew, and the starry sky filled the night.

Gu Ci’s dress fluttered in the evening breeze, and the moonlight softened their figures as they leaned against each other.

“Third Master, it’s my birthday tomorrow, did you know?”

“I didn’t know.”

“You have Lu Zhiyuan’s memories, how could you not know?” Gu Ci said softly, “We plan to take Gu Ziyu for a photo shoot tomorrow, don’t you know?”

“I don’t care.”

Listening to his indifferent tone, Gu Ci fell silent for a moment. “My birthday is the same day as Gu Chuyun’s. Since 1 was little, they only celebrated Gu Chuyun’s birthday. I have never received a ‘Happy Birthday’ from them, not even a gift unless it’s something Gu Chuyun doesn’t want. But there’s always a stranger who sends me a gift every year. I wonder what I’ll receive this year.”

Lu Zhiyuan continued to gaze at the moon, seemingly unaffected.

Gu Ci asked, “Third Master, what will I receive?”

“I don’t know.”

Gu Ci looked up, her smile full of anticipation. “I’m so looking forward to what he will give me.”

Lu Zhiyuan remained silent, and Gu Ci curiously asked, “Third Master, what gift did Lu Zhiyuan buy?”

“A bracelet!”

He answered without hesitation. Gu Ci, who expected him to remain silent, was slightly surprised and found it somewhat amusing. She looked at the watch on her wrist and asked, “So should I wear the watch he gave me or the bracelet?”

Lu Zhiyuan didn’t say anything, and Gu Ci asked, “Third Master, aren’t you going to give me a gift?”

“Why should I give you a gift?”

“Yes, we’re not lovers, not even friends. There’s no need for you to give me a gift. I’m just being greedy,” Gu Ci said with a faint tone. The two of them stood on the rooftop like that, admiring the moon and the starlight.

At midnight, it was Gu Ci’s birthday. Suddenly, a splendid firework display lit up in the distance. After the fireworks burst, the sky resembled a phoenix flying by, shining brightly with red hues.

“It’s so beautiful,” Gu Ci said softly. “It looks like the phoenix tree of the Lu family.”

The two of them silently watched the fireworks as they gradually faded away. The five-minute fireworks display was like a spectacle of a flourishing era, illuminating the night sky and her world.

Accompanying someone is the most sincere confession and also his only expression.

Tonight, there was a fireworks show in the amusement park, visible from the rooftop.

After the fireworks extravaganza, Lu Zhiyuan stood with Gu Ci for a while, then silently left without any gifts or a simple “Happy Birthday.” It seemed like he had come up just to admire the moon and stars.

Early the next day, when Gu Ziyu woke up, there were six beautifully wrapped gifts in his room. It felt like Santa Claus had secretly sneaked in to surprise him.

Gu Ziyu happily unwrapped the gifts, and each one was exquisitely packaged.

Shoes, a mug with his own image, Bluetooth earphones, a bunch of keychains with photos of Gu Ci and Lu Zhiyuan, a basketball, and a creative bedside lamp.

They were all small gifts that a six-year-old boy would receive.

With rosy cheeks, Gu Ziyu was especially happy. He liked every single gift, except for the basketball. A few days ago, Gu Ci had suggested playing basketball together, and she actually bought a basketball, complete with the signature of a popular basketball star.

“The basketball was given by Dad!” Gu Ci leaned against the doorway. “The signature is authentic, and the basketball star happened to be visiting City A.”

Even though Gu Ziyu didn’t actively follow basketball stars, he knew how popular this particular superstar was. Getting his genuine autograph was extremely difficult. No matter how clever a child is, they still have a desire for strength. Gu Ziyu instantly liked the basketball.

“Mama, I love the gifts!” Gu Ziyu’s eyes sparkled. The things Gu Ci usually bought for him or the special gifts she gave him on his birthday were different.

“As long as my baby likes them!”

“I also have something to give Mom!” Gu Ziyu had prepared early, holding a large box and coming over. Gu Ci eagerly opened it, revealing 24 custom-made lipsticks made by Gu Ziyu himself.

He proudly said, “Mom, 1 made them all by myself.”

“Wow…” Gu Ci was surprised. The lipstick shades were exceptionally comprehensive, and the tubes were custom-made. The black and gold casing had rose patterns, making it very eye-catching. Gu Ci took out a tube of bean paste-colored lipstick, which was moisturizing, evenly pigmented, and had a faint floral scent. “Baby, how did you make lipstick?”

“It’s just a mixture of some things, very simple.” Gu Ziyu’s voice couldn’t conceal his pride. “I added a little essence extracted from roses, isn’t it fragrant?”

“Super fragrant.” Gu Ci was amazed. “It’s a hit among internet celebrities.”

The benefits of having a top student son!

With his hands on his hips, Gu Ziyu smiled triumphantly. As long as his mom liked it, he had started preparing early, researching several formulas and making two lipsticks, choosing the most satisfying ones.

When Lu Zhiyuan came down, Gu Ci was trying on the lipsticks. She tried every shade since Gu Ziyu’s lipsticks covered a wide range of colors, including the shade she wanted.

Even the “Death Barbie Pink” color looked particularly good without any plastic feel.

“Why did you buy so many lipsticks?”

“I made them!” Gu Ziyu couldn’t wait to take credit. “I made them myself.”

Lu Zhiyuan leaned in to smell and caught a whiff of a floral scent. Gu Ci was in a youthful and vibrant age, and her complexion was already good, even without lipstick. Most of the lipsticks at home were sent by the brand to Zhou Jinjin, but she gave them to Gu Ci.

“You’re really amazing.” Lu Zhiyuan felt a pang of jealousy as Gu Ziyu emphasized that he made them himself.

As expected, Gu Ziyu started comparing, “What did you give Sister?”

Lu Zhiyuan took out his gift, a woven bracelet with a silver pendant featuring a cartoon version of himself. He turned his own peripherals into a bracelet and gave it to Gu Ci.

“Wow…” Gu Ci had seen his peripherals before, and this design was very cute and widely known. Zhou Jinjin had a pillow with his peripherals featuring this cartoon.

She didn’t expect him to turn it into a bracelet.

Lu Zhiyuan showed off his wrist. He was also wearing a woven bracelet with a pendant featuring Gu Ci’s cartoon version. The two intertwined ropes and the colors clearly made it a couple’s style.

“It looks great!” Gu Ci, who had been spoiled, didn’t expect a couple’s bracelet. Lu Zhiyuan put it on her wrist.

Gu Ziyu asked, “Why don’t I have one?”

“We’re wearing couple’s bracelets. Why would you need one?”

“But you’re not a couple!” Gu Ziyu had a valid argument. “Are you?”

Lu Zhiyuan and Gu Ci didn’t know how to reply.

Gu Ci felt a slight awkwardness in her heart. Baby, you’re unconsciously helping out.

“I gave you a basketball. Go exercise every day, and don’t stay indoors.”

Gu Ziyu secretly thought, “Dad is changing the topic. Hmph!”

The three of them had breakfast together and took Gu Ziyu to the park for a photoshoot. Gu Ci had arranged a photographer, but instead of going to a studio, they went to a park for the shoot. They played around while the photographer captured candid shots, and Li Jiang accompanied them with his close protection team.

The photographer trembled as it was his first time witnessing a client who brought bodyguards to a photo shoot..
