It's not too late to meet in the book

As night fell, the lights in the Renault family's courtyard dimmed, leaving only a soft spotlight shining on a large table in the center. On it, a beautiful birthday cake quietly awaited its guests. The colorful frosting shimmered enticingly under the dim light, and several slender candles flickered gracefully, adding a touch of mystery and warmth to the impending celebration.

Renault and Wang Jing stood aside with happy smiles on their faces. Their eyes kept moving over the children, their hearts filled with endless love and expectations for them.

"Children, come quickly, it's time to roll out our birthday cake!" Renault called softly, his voice full of tenderness and joy.

Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan ran over excitedly upon hearing this, followed closely by Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Yu. The four children stood around the cake, their eyes fixed on the burning candles, their faces filled with curiosity and excitement.

"Xiaoyue, Yuxuan, today is your special day. I hope you can make the best wishes." Wang Jing said softly, holding a lit match in her hand, ready to light the candles on the cake for the children.

As the candles lit up one by one, a faint scent of wax filled the courtyard. Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan smiled at each other, their eyes gleaming with anticipation and excitement.

"Okay, kids, now close your eyes and make your birthday wishes." Renault instructed softly. His voice was gentle and powerful, as if injecting an invisible power into the children.

Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan obediently closed their eyes, their hands tightly clasped together, as if conveying strength and blessings to each other. The yard suddenly became quiet, with only the subtle sound of burning candles and the children's gentle breathing being heard.

At this moment, Lei Xiaoyue's heart was filled with longing and dreams for the future. She silently made a wish: "I hope I can be with my parents, Xiaoxiao, Yuxuan and others forever, and live a happy life."

Lin Yuxuan's wish is simpler and purer: "I hope I can be a brave person and protect my family and friends."

When the children finished making their wishes and opened their eyes, a cheerful birthday song suddenly rang out in the yard. Renault and Wang Jing joined Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Yu in singing. Their voices were warm and harmonious, as if cheering on the children's dreams.

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Xiaoyue and Yuxuan, happy birthday to you!"

As the song ended, Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan smiled at each other, then took a deep breath together and prepared to blow out the candles. Their movements were tacit and powerful, as if demonstrating their team spirit and friendship.

"Whoosh!" As a light breeze blew by, the children blew out the candles in one breath. Suddenly, warm applause and cheers rang out in the yard.

"Xiaoyue, Yuxuan, your wishes will definitely come true!" Su Xiaoxiao said excitedly, her eyes flashing with anticipation and blessings for the future.

"Thank you, Xiaoxiao, Lin Yu." Lei Xiaoyue replied gratefully, "I feel so happy to have you around."

Lin Yuxuan also nodded, his face filled with a satisfied smile: "Yes, I really feel lucky to have friends like you."

At this time, Lei Nuo and Wang Jing came over and cut the cake for the children. They carefully distributed the cake to each child, as if injecting sweetness and hope into their dreams and future.

"Children, eat the cake. I hope this sweetness can bring you more joy and happiness." Wang Jing said softly, with the light of maternal love shining in her eyes.

The children took the cake and ate it with big mouthfuls, their faces filled with smiles of satisfaction and happiness, as if at this moment, all their worries and sorrows were melted away by this sweetness.

Lin Yuxuan held the small cake with a small fork and carefully handed it to Su Xiaoxiao's mouth and said, "Mom, you eat it!"

Su Xiaoxiao happily ate the cake and said, "Thank you, son!" Lin Yu saw that his son did not feed him the cake and said sourly, "Really not going to feed Dad a bite of cake?" Su Xiaoxiao felt ashamed for Lin Yu and took the cake and put it into his mouth and said, "Lin Yu, how old are you? Why do you need your son to feed you?"

As the cake gradually disappeared, the atmosphere in the yard became warmer and more joyful. The children sat together, sharing their joys and dreams. Their laughter and cheers echoed in the night sky, as if drawing a perfect end to this unforgettable birthday party.

"Xiaoyue, you are so happy today!" Lin Yuxuan held Lei Xiaoyue's hand, his eyes sparkling with envy, "Your birthday wish will definitely come true!"

"Well, Brother Yuxuan, I also hope that your wish can come true soon." Lei Xiaoyue replied with a smile, her heart filled with infinite longing and expectation for the future, "Let's work hard together!"
