The closer the birthday was, the more pleasant Lu Boyan felt.

Shen Yuechuan involuntarily sighed to his colleagues: Boss Lu’s temper was getting better and better recently.

At the same time, Shen Yuechuan summed up a truth: making Su Jianan happy was more useful than appeasing Lu Boyan directly. Anyway, the President’s mood entirely depended on Mrs. President.

But in fact, during these days, Su Jianan’s mood wasn’t well; instead, she frowned deeper and deeper. Luo Xiaoxi could hear Su Jianan’s sigh every time she called her. After a few times, she involuntarily asked her about what had happened.

Su Jianan said with a sigh, “I don’t know how to celebrate Lu Boyan’s birthday…”

“It’s only a birthday, everyone has it every year. Why are you so worried?”

From time to time, Luo Xiaoxi was invited to birthday parties of a Young Master or a Young Madam which could cause a stir within the whole city. The birthday itself was not a rare thing for her, but an excuse to celebrate grandly.

“But Lu Boyan hasn’t had a birthday party for a long time.” Su Jianan said two things she cared the most about. “And, this is my first birthday with him. I want him to remember it all his life. Aren’t you known as the party talent? Immediate emergency! Help me out, will you?”

Rarely being entrusted with a heavy responsibility, Luo Xiaoxi carefully considered the trade-offs and said, “In fact, such man like Lu Boyan, has seen most of the good things before, and there is no grand scene that he hasn’t yet experienced. The average person’s birthday can aim for a grand sensation, but for Lu Boyan, you’d better come up with something original.”

“Hmm!”

For the first time, Su Jianan felt that the words spoken by Luo Xiaoxi were the truth. Sure enough, some things still needed experience!

Then, Su Jianan seriously discussed with Luo Xiaoxi, countering problems, and finally, they determined how to celebrate Lu Boyan’s first birthday after their marriage.

A few days later, Lu Boyan’s birthday was approaching. And fortunately, it was Sunday.

Early in the morning, Shen Yuechuan called to rouse Lu Boyan from his sleep and asked him to play golf.

Hanging up the phone, Lu Boyan met Su Jianan’s eyes, which were full of mirth and love.

She smiled cleverly and sensibly. “You can go play with Shen Yuechuan, I can be by myself at home!”

Lu Boyan looked at Su Jianan with suspicion. She quickly added, “I’m not a ten year old! If you don’t go, Shen Yuechuan and others might think that you’re a henpecked husband!”

Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows. After getting up and washing, he easily went out.

This was exactly what Su Jianan intended, and she also had no time to think too much. She immediately called Luo Xiaoxi for help and then worked hard at home in accordance with the plan.

…

Countryside, golf course.

On the early autumn morning, the breeze was pleasant, and sunshine warmed the green grass on the court.

Lu Boyan appeared in an unhurried manner. Shen Yuechuan and Mu Sijue were already there, who were eating an exquisite breakfast under a parasol.

Lu Boyan also pulled out a chair to sit and poured himself a cup of coffee.

Immediately, he perceived the strong coffee aroma.

He elegantly took a sip. Then, he asked, “For how long did Jianan ask you to drag me around?”

That’s right, he guessed it.

When he received the phone call from Shen Yuechuan early in the morning, he began to suspect that this was a plan. Later, Su Jianan performed so well and sensibly; the speculation was in his heart.

Shen Yuechuan didn’t expect Su Jianan to deceive Lu Boyan successfully. He honestly said, “You have to wait until dinner time.” Then he looked at his watch and couldn’t help but smile. “This is my first time feeling we have plenty of time. Hey, how do we play today?”

Mu Sijue rose up and said, “Play a few shots first.”

Three people left the parasol resting area and walked toward the course. Mu Sijue told Lu Boyan as if chatting normally along the road, “I checked Kang Ruicheng’s recent whereabouts and found that he went to Thailand and Nepal during this time. If nothing goes wrong, he will come back soon.”

This time, when Kang Ruicheng came back, inevitably, Lu Boyan and he needed to have a face-to-face meeting.

After the encounter, peaceful days would be finished.

Lu Boyan made a decisive shot, and the white golf ball made a beautiful but sharp arc above the green grass.

“The sooner Kang Ruicheng comes back, the better it will be,” His voice was laden with a gloomy chill.

Mu Sijue raised his lips and smiled. “I think so too.” Just like the sooner the trouble was solved, the better it would be.

In City G, the status of his Mu family had never been shaken, and when Kang Ruicheng returned, he had dared to covet his business.

He would like to see how much Kang Ruicheng had trained, who had been recruiting and refining for many years.

Thinking of it, Mu Sijue swung a powerful shot. The white sphere seemed to be endowed with infinite power, which was full of murderous intent and precisely rolled into the hole.

Just like hitting an enemy. One punch, giving a deadly hit.

This was Mu Sijue’s consistent style.

Shen Yuechuan took the club from the caddie’s hand and asked Lu Boyan when he was squatting, “Do you want Su Yicheng to know about Kang Ruicheng?”

“He has the right to know.” Lu Boyan said, “I will pick the right time to tell him.”

Shen Yuechuan was curious. “Aren’t you afraid that he would ask you to divorce Jianan?”

Su Jianan was the treasure that Su Yicheng held in his hand. If he knew about Lu Boyan and Kang Ruicheng’s feud, he wouldn’t let Su Jianan stay with Lu Boyan any longer; it would otherwise be equal to let Su Jianan take risks.

Lu Boyan’s hands froze.

His profound eyes showed a flash of coldness, which left without a trace. “So far, I can’t divorce Jianan anyway.”

If Kang Ruicheng hadn’t yet eyed Su Jianan, in order to guarantee her safety, he might have allowed the “divorce” to happen.

But now, Kang Ruicheng was threatening Su Jianan. Only by staying with him, Su Jianan would be safe, and he could also feel at ease.

Therefore, even if Su Yicheng requested it, he could not divorce Su Jianan.

“Well…” Shen Yuechuan shook his head and sighed, then played another shot.

He didn’t know what magic effect love had, but he knew how destructive it was.

It seemed that no matter what thing it was, as long as it had a relationship with love, it would become a series of twists and turns.

Just like Kang Ruicheng’s matter. If it didn’t involve Su Jianan, how else could Lu Boyan hesitate?

But it came down to four-words: Battle to the death!

He also wanted to ask what love was.

Mu Sijue looked at the hole in the distance and smiled. “So, I insist on divorcing. It’s a correct and wise choice.”

Love?

When hearing this, an unrealistic feeling came to him at first. Even if love came, it was big trouble.

Lu Boyan looked at Mu Sijue with a faint gaze.

He waited for the day when Mu Sijue stumbled upon love.

…

While at this time, the family was busy with the celebration.

When Luo Xiaoxi rushed over, she became the chief planner along with Uncle Xu; together they organized all arrangements, and Su Jianan shut herself in the kitchen, to single-mindedly battle with the birthday cake.

She was good at cooking and making some small snacks, but she had only tried the birthday cake several times a few years ago. The taste was not outstanding, and it was no different from one picked at a roadside shop.

This was Lu Boyan’s birthday cake, how could it be ordinary?

She consulted information on cakes for more than an hour. After mastering some techniques, she asked the chef to help her prepare all the things and carefully started working after lunch.

Although in the level of apprenticeship, Su Jianan had a very excellent cooking skill, so it was not particularly difficult to operate, as long as she used the right amount of ingredients.

When the cake base was baked in the box, she baked two cupcakes alongside it. When Luo Xiaoxi was coming in after preparing, she happened to see the baked cake base and was called by Su Jianan to have a sampling.

She handed a cupcake to Luo Xiaoxi. “Have a taste!”

Luo Xiaoxi was defenseless against Su Jianan’s food. After allowing the cake to cool, she immediately took a bite and Su Jianan looked at her with a look of hope. “How is it?”

“Oh, huh!” Luo Xiaoxi pointed at the cake; unable to speak, she only nodded.

Having eaten the whole cupcake, Luo Xiaoxi felt satisfied. She tapped Su Jianan’s shoulder and said, “Jianan, you are virtually better than the cake chef.”

Su Jianan took a bite from another cupcake, and Luo Xiaoxi didn’t seem to exaggerate. After being assured, she cut the big cake embryo and beat the cream.

Luo Xiaoxi stared at the cupcake that only had a bite taken by Su Jianan and swallowed. “Jianan, aren’t you going to eat it?”

Su Jianan knew Luo Xiaoxi well. She said, “You can have it.”

“Don’t mind if I do!”

Luo Xiaoxi picked up the cupcake and jumped on the long table beside it. She leisurely dangled her long legs and watched Su Jianan beating cream while eating.

For the first time to carefully make a birthday cake, Su Jianan did not dare to be sloppy. She prepared the cream, then cut the fruit, carefully distributing it on the cake embryo; she spread the cream, and after taking a bit more than two hours, the cake was finally formed. Only the piping and decoration work was left.

Su Jianan was good at piping and it was easily done. But when she looked at the empty cake surface, she felt embarrassed and asked Luo Xiaoxi, “What else can I use to decorate except fruit and chocolate?”

“You can also write.” Luo Xiaoxi said, “Do you want to write ‘happy birthday’ or something funny?”

Su Jianan sat down and looked at the cake with her chin cupped in her hands. She rejected writing jokes in her heart, but to only wrote a “Happy Birthday”, would it look unimaginative?

After a while, a somewhat bold but sweet idea took over Su Jianan’s mind.

She did not hesitate because she knew that she would hesitate to dispel this thought.

Quickly taking the tool, she started writing and drawing on the blank part of the cake surface.

Luo Xiaoxi finished eating the cupcake and found that Su Jianan was serious and excited. Curiously going over and after seeing her words, she screamed. “Jianan, I realize that after marriage, you are getting better and better at saying sweet things to Lu Boyan.”

Su Jianan licked her lips and said nothing.

This was Lu Boyan’s first birthday with her. She was eager to make him happy but also in an unforgettable way.

Therefore, she would not let go of any chance to make him have a more lasting impression!

After writing, the final task was the decoration. This work had the same effect as the set which wasn’t difficult for Su Jianan. The different colors of fresh fruits and black and white chocolates came together, shaping an exquisite birthday cake.

Su Jianan carefully put it in the box to seal and finally placed it in the refrigerator.
