Chapter 273 Making things difficult
The group chatted idly for more than ten minutes.
The lights suddenly dimmed.
A beam of light shone down into the hall.
Within the aperture was a young boy, who appeared to be only fifteen or sixteen years old.
He was pushing a small food cart with three tiers of cake decorated with lots of fruit.
Then a pleasant melody began to play, and the boy pushed the cake cart to the center of the living room.
At such a young age, he already possessed the demeanor of a young prodigy, standing tall and with an upright posture.
Chang Xuanling was stunned when she saw the boy.
"Chang Yuze?!"
It was obvious that Chang Xuanling knew him.
And judging from the name, he must be a member of the Chang family.
"you know?"
Li Mingxuan looked at her and asked softly.
“My uncle’s youngest son, my brother.” Chang Xuanling nodded.
However, judging from her expression, the appearance of this boy named Chang Yuze was also unexpected for Chang Xuanling.
"Didn't he say he was going to summer camp and wouldn't be coming?" Chang Xuanling asked, puzzled.
Then she stood up and walked over there.
Chang's parents, with smiles on their faces, also walked towards the boy.
Seeing Chang Xuanling walk over, the boy smiled and greeted her affectionately as "Sister."
Happy birthday, sis.
"Chang Yuze, didn't you say you weren't coming?"
Looking at the little brother in front of her, Chang Xuanling was both surprised and delighted, and asked with a smile.
"Hey, it's my brother. He was too busy to come himself, so he sent me here."
"I was already on my way to summer camp when my brother bribed the driver. By the time I woke up, we were already in Shanghai."
Chang Yuze shrugged helplessly and spread his hands as he spoke.
Hearing the boy's story, Chang Xuanling was both amused and exasperated, but she was still very happy that her younger brother had come to celebrate her birthday.
Chang's parents came over.
Chang Yuze greeted his second uncle and aunt warmly, and they responded with smiles, inquiring about his parents' situation.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, we got down to business.
Chang Xuanling wore a blue flowing dress with long, flowing hair and a slender, graceful figure. Under the lights, she exuded an extraordinary aura.
Sweet yet elegant, she truly deserves the title of Shanghai's No. 1 Little Princess.
All the guests gathered around, and Mr. Chang put a birthday hat on his beloved daughter, while Mrs. Chang and Chang Yuze helped to put the candles in.
Standing to the side, Li Mingxuan watched the family's happy and contented appearance, feeling envious and genuinely happy for Chang Xuanling.
The candle was lit, and wisps of candlelight filled the air.
Chang Xuanling was flanked by her father and mother, a family of three that others envied.
"Make a wish quickly," said Mother Chang, looking at her beloved daughter with doting eyes.
Chang Xuanling hummed in agreement, then subconsciously glanced at Li Mingxuan, before closing her eyes and making a prayer-like gesture with her hands in front of her chest.
After a moment of silence, everyone's eyes fell on the girl who had made a wish.
At this moment, she was the center of everyone's attention.
"Hey, Li Mingxuan, guess what Ling'er's wish is?" Song Meilan stood beside Li Mingxuan and asked him in a low voice.
Li Mingxuan couldn't help but chuckle as he heard her words.
"How would I know her wishes? She probably just hoped that her family would be healthy and happy."
"Tch, why don't you guess it's related to you?"
Song Meilan was clearly dissatisfied with Li Mingxuan's answer, and gave him a charmingly disdainful look.
Li Mingxuan didn't say anything more, he just stared at the only focal point under the light.
After a short while, Chang Xuanling opened her eyes.
She took a deep breath and then blew out the twelve candles forcefully.
Immediately, applause erupted from all sides, cheering for the birthday celebrant.
Chang Xuanling's eyes reddened, and her eyes glistened with tears. She hugged her parents one by one, thanking them for raising and caring for her over the past twenty-two years.
Happy birthday, sis.
Chang Yuze smiled and offered his blessings.
He's already so handsome at such a young age; he's sure to grow up to be an outstanding young man.
"Thank you." Chang Xuanling looked at her younger brother, who was about the same height as her, and felt a surge of emotion.
Afterwards, Mr. and Mrs. Chang each gave their daughter a gift to celebrate her birthday.
Chang Yuze also presented gifts for himself, his parents, and his unscrupulous brother.
Chang Xuanling was stunned to see a large handful of keys handed to her.
"what is this?"
"These are all gifts from my parents and brother."
Chang Yuze was speechless; the gifts they gave were exactly the same.
Dad gave him a small villa in Kyoto, Mom gave him a restaurant, his brother gave him a limited-edition luxury car, and he gave him a piano.
He bought this piano with his saved allowance.
The piano had already been quietly placed in the yard outside.
Looking at the keychain in Chang Xuanling's hand, Li Mingxuan felt a sense of suffocation at the extravagance of wealthy families.
When he was in the orphanage, the children would have a birthday cake, about twelve or thirteen inches in size, and everyone would gather around it.
Give him one of your treasured or favorite toys, accompany him to make a wish and blow out the candles, and then share the cake.
Compared to the scene before me, it was simply too rudimentary and ordinary.
They can't be compared.
There's really no comparison!
Li Mingxuan shook his head and sighed, secretly resolving to provide a better life for the children in the orphanage in the future.
Other guests also presented their gifts, and Chang Xuanling's friends helped her accept and arrange them.
Afterwards, Song Meilan and the others presented the birthday celebrant with the gifts they had prepared.
Seeing Li Mingxuan standing still, a man joked with a smile.
"Big star, you and our little birthday boy are such good friends, aren't you going to do something for him?"
He was originally Xu Lang's backup plan, but Li Mingxuan revealed his identity, which made him abandon his original plan.
However, seeing that his hands were empty, we couldn't let him be too comfortable.
“Yes, what gift did you give?” a woman echoed his question.
Immediately, everyone's attention shifted to Li Mingxuan.
"Auntie, who is this guy?" Chang Yuze asked in a whistle when he saw Li Mingxuan.
"Ling'er brought it," Chang's mother said softly, while Chang's father snorted coldly.
"He's already delivered it," Chang Xuanling said, trying to help Li Mingxuan out of the predicament.
In fact, he had already given the gift to Chang Xuanling.
But now that he's empty-handed, it doesn't look very good.
“Big star, how about you sing a song for our Xuanling?” Song Meilan asked with a smile, looking at him with a mix of teasing and anticipation.
I want to see how he solves this problem.
"Brother Mingxuan, don't listen to their nonsense." Chang Xuanling was a little anxious. Although she knew that Li Mingxuan could create on the spot, it wasn't something that could be done all the time.
"Okay."
