“What did you say?!”
Su Youwei widened her eyes in disbelief, “Y-You want to kill him? A-Are you crazy?”
“No, I’m not crazy!”
The smirk on Lin Han’s lips remained “Aren’t you curious about my identity? You even asked around secretly. Do you think I didn’t know that?”
Su Youwei was speechless.
In fact, after she confirmed her relationship with Lin Han, Lin Han had not been honest with her. She had even hired a private investigator to investigate him.
Unfortunately, she found nothing.
This man seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.
Lin Han stood with his hands behind his back with pride all over his face, “I’m from Shang Santian. Perhaps you don’t know what Shang Santian is, all you only need to know is that someone like Mad Southern Ye is nothing in the eyes of Shang Santian.”
At this moment, he lost the gentleness he had before. His body exuded a monstrous aura, “To the secular world, Shang Santian is a transcendent power. It’s a colossus. It’s an ancient immortal realm. It holds the lives and deaths of mortals like you in its hands. It controls life and death!”
Su Youwei could not stop trembling. She had never seen such a side to Lin Han who was usually gentle. Her mind was blank, she could no longer hear what Lin Han was saying.
After a while, Lin Han retracted his aura and regained his gentleness. He caressed Su Youwei’s face with his hand, “How was it? Did I scare you?”
“In other words, you’re also a cultivator!”
Su Youwei stammered, “Not only that, there are many powerhouses who are more powerful than Ye Chen where you’re from?”
“Of course!”
A fierce gleam flashed through Lin Han’s eyes, “So, all you need to know is that I, Lin Han, am not afraid of the so-called East Asia No.1, Mad Southern Ye!”
Su Youwei leaned into his embrace and said coquettishly, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier, then? It’s not like I can’t accept it. Great, the misunderstanding is cleared now!”
At the end of her sentence, she raised her head to look out of the window. A smug look flashing across her eyes!
‘Sister!
You’re nothing better than me!
You have Ye Chen, while I have Lin Han!’
…
At the Ye residence villa, Ye Chen brought the two little girls home while Su Yuhan stayed behind after the movie.
Mengmeng extended her arms and hugged Ye Chen’s neck. Her warm breath hit his face, “Daddy, why didn’t mommy come home with us?”
“Mommy has something to do. She’ll be back soon!”
Ye Chen smiled mysteriously and said, “Can daddy play a game with you? Let’s close our eyes together and count from one to a hundred in our hearts. Whoever finishes first wins.”
“Okay!”
The little girl nodded like a chick pecking on rice, “Daddy, if I win, will there be a reward?”
“Yes, you’ll get a big present!”
Ye Chen called for the start as soon as he finished speaking. The little girl closed her eyes immediately and started counting quickly, “1, 2, 3, 4, 5…”
Ye Hai and Wu Lan’s hearts skipped a beat.
“You’re not allowed to open your eyes. Whoever opens their eyes before you finish counting will be considered to have lost. If you lose, you will be punished.”
Ye Chen said while suppressing his laughter. He walked over and hung up all the fairylights before sending Su Yuhan a message.
71, 72…
When the little girl counted over 70, Su Yuhan walked in with a cake in her hands. She put it on the table quietly.
98, 99…
The little girl opened her eyes when she reached one hundred.
At the same time, the lights in the room dimmed.
When the little girl opened her eyes, she saw colorful lights flashing. The most eye-catching thing was the five-layered cake on the table before her. There were five candles on it.
On top of the cake were a few large words written in cream, ‘Happy 5th birthday to my precious daughter, Mengmeng!’.
The child was suddenly confused and could not react in time, “Mommy, is it your birthday today? What a big cake.”
“It’s your birthday!”
Ye Chen could not help but pinch her cheek when he saw her gulping non-stop, “Today is my darling’s fifth birthday. It’s also my first birthday for you. I wish you a happy birthday and a happy future.”
Su Yuhan carried her over and kissed her on the cheek. She said with a smile, “Happy birthday, darling!”
“Mengmeng, happy birthday to you too!”
Ye Hai took out a thick red packet and handed it over. He could not help but blurt out a bunch of English words, “Happee Birthday to yoo…”
“Grandma wished you a happy birthday, too!” Wu Lan also handed her a red packet.
The two elders were beaming.
Qianqian, who was at the side, was stunned. Subsequently, she took out two white beads. The beads were only the size of beans and were crystal clear, “Sister Mengmeng, I-I wish you a happy birthday!”
The little girl was stunned. A few seconds later, she said timidly, “It’s my birthday? I have a birthday too?
I can celebrate my birthday too!
I’m so happy!
Thank you, daddy. Thank you, mommy. Thank you, grandpa and grandma.
Thank you, Sister Qianqian…”
The little girl hopped around in the room after she realized what was going on. She started kissing their faces one after another starting from Ye Chen. Her face flushed with excitement.
Su Yuhan’s eyes reddened watching that. She looked over immediately and almost cried.
It was Ye Chen’s first birthday for his daughter.
It was also the first birthday she gave her daughter as her mother…
Ye Chen seemed to have sensed her feelings. He reached out and patted her shoulder. Subsequently, he said to the little girl, “Make a wish now. Then, we’ll eat the cake!”
The little girl pressed her palms together and faced the candlelight. She closed her watery eyes and mumbled, “My wish is for daddy, mommy, grandpa, grandma, and Sister Qianqian to be…”
Ye Chen was being superstitious for the first time, “You can’t say your wish out loud. You have to say it in your heart or it won’t work.”
“I see…”
The little girl mumbled and closed her eyes again. She opened her eyes ten seconds later and blew out the five candles in front of her.
“Time for cake!”
Ye Chen smiled and picked up a fork and knife to cut two portions.
Unexpectedly, the little girl staggered over to Ye Hai and Wu Lan with two cakes in her hands. She knelt in front of everyone and said in her baby voice, “Grandpa, grandma, you guys have worked hard. You guys should eat first.”
“Silly child, get up, the floor is cold!”
Ye Hai and Wu Lan were so emotional that they almost cried.
How could they not be happy that their precious granddaughter was so sensible?
Ye Chen saw that and nodded secretly. He was overjoyed, “Alright, it’s all yours and Qianqian’s now. Tell me, which one do you want?”
The little girl pointed, “Daddy, I want the strawberries on the highest layer.”
Qianqian said sensibly, “Big brother, let Sister Mengmeng eat the strawberries. Qianqian will only eat the cream.”
“Both of you will get strawberries…”
Ye Chen cut a portion for each of the girls fairly. The two of them enjoyed the cake.
The family had fun all the way to midnight.
…
On the next morning, Ye Chen received a call from Niu Qingshan, “The negotiation venue has been set. Yang City International Hotel, tonight at nine.”
Ye Chen stretched while sitting on the couch. A cold ripple appeared in his calm eyes, “They’re finally here?”
“What did you say?!”
Su Youwei widened her eyes in disbelief, “Y-You want to kill him? A-Are you crazy?”
“No, I’m not crazy!”
The smirk on Lin Han’s lips remained “Aren’t you curious about my identity? You even asked around secretly. Do you think I didn’t know that?”
