Chapter 429 - It's Your Birthday
With Huo Yun Chen coming to pester her about moving back to Capital City, Xia Yu could only say yes to that offer.
When she returned to A City due to her father's request, Xia Yu really thought that she could bear staying under the same roof with her mother and younger brother. But now that such things happen, Xia Yu finally made up her mind to leave.
After all, it was not the first time that the mother and son had tried to hurt her. The most important thing was to leave A City and stay away from her mother.
Huo Yun Chen arranged for a car to bring her back to Capital City.
Xia Yu would be living with Lin You temporarily.
Song Xing Xing was relieved upon hearing that Xia Yu had safely arrived in Capital City. She made a few arrangements with Huo Yun Chen to look after this friend and hired a caretaker to look after Xia Yu.
After all, Lin You was Huo Yun Chen's assistant and it was not very convenient for her to look after Xia Yu all the time.
For Lin You, she did not mind having a few extra people around the house. She had always lived alone and thought it would be fun to have someone to talk to at home. Moreover, the caretaker that Song Xing Xing had hired would also prepare food for her.
Song Xing Xing placed her phone on the table after speaking with Xia Yu.
Just in time, Mr. Fluffball jumped up on her lap and meowed.
"Mr. Fluffball, get down. You're too heavy."
The grey cat did not listen to her and continued to look at her with a pair of adorable eyes.
"Alright. I know. I'll go and feed you now." Song Xing Xing sighed. "What do you want? Boiled chicken breast?"
The cat meowed, blinked, and led her into the kitchen.
Since his papa went to work, the only person that Mr. Fluffball can pester was Song Xing Xing.
Seeing the food that his papa had specially made for him in his bowl makes him happy. Mr. Fluffball dug in and did not look up again.
Song Xing Xing glanced at the clock and was reminded of the reason she took a day off from work. Seeing that it was almost time, Song Xing Xing went back to her room to get ready.
Then, she grabbed the car keys and drove over to NEXT Group headquarter.
When she arrived, Song Xing Xing took the elevator and went straight to the president's floor. The elevator door opened with a ding and Song Xing Xing found that Bei Yuan was already waiting for her.
"Mrs. Lu," Bei Yuan greeted. "President Lu is in his office. Would you like me to bring you anything?"
Song Xing Xing smiled. "It's fine. The two of us are planning to head out anyway."
Bei Yuan thought about the special occasion and had a feeling that his boss was going to drop some work for him.
She arrived at his door and entered the room after knocking on the door once.
Lu Xun looked up from his documents and walked over to his wife's side. The couple met halfway and Lu Xun bent down to kiss his wife on the cheek.
"Are you feeling better now?" Lu Xun asked with worry.
Earlier that morning, Song Xing Xing had told him that she was not going to the studio because she was feeling unwell.
Lu Xun wanted to take her to the hospital but Song Xing Xing had assured him that she would be fine after getting a few more hours of sleep.
Thinking that his wife was probably tired after rolling on the mattress last night, Lu Xun finally gave up.
Now that she had suddenly appeared in his office, Lu Xun could not help but worry.
"I'm fine." Song Xing Xing giggled. She glanced at his desk and asked, "Hubby, are you busy? How about going out and having lunch with me today? If you're not that busy, we can go on a date afterward."
Lu Xun raised a brow, wondering what was his wife up to.
"It's your birthday. I already booked a place for us to have lunch."
Lu Xun gave his wife a look over. "It's my birthday, but didn't you get me a present?"
"You already claimed to get your present last night." Song Xing Xing punched him lightly on his chest.
Last night, she had waited until midnight just to be the first person who wished him a happy birthday. And then, someone was acting like a hooligan and decided to have his birthday present. She was pressed on the mattress and tossed around until she was tired.
Just thinking about it makes her waist sore. It was too embarrassing.
"I already put your birthday present in your wardrobe. You can go and look at them later when you get home."
Seeing his wife's reddened face made him happy. Lu Xun wrapped his arms around her waist to coax her. "I'm not that busy," Anyway, he could always leave his work to his capable assistant. "Hold on. Let me just tidy up a few things then we can go."
Song Xing Xing nodded. She sat on the sofa while waiting for Lu Xun to tidy up his desk and gave a few instructions to Bei Yuan.
Once everything was settled, the couple left the office and headed to the restaurant to have lunch together.
While Lu Xun was driving, Song Xing Xing gave him a few updates about Xia Yu's situation now that she had moved back to Capital City.
The vehicle stopped at the red light and Lu Xun turned to look at his wife. "Why do I have this feeling as if you and Huo Yun Chen are sharing responsibility as a co-parent to Miss Xia?"
Song Xing Xing looked at him speechlessly. It seemed that someone was drinking vinegar again.
"What co-parenting? I'm only helping to set them up, alright?" Song Xing Xing said. "I always thought that the way Xia Yu was looking at Huo Yun Chen is a little different. I think she likes him. Hubby, don't you think that the two of them would be good together?"
Hearing her words, his unhappiness quickly disappeared.
Lu Xun thought about the possibility of Huo Yun Chen and Miss Xia Yu together and decided that it would not be a bad thing for them to be together.
