C24 The Birthday Feast

The next day.

When Su Muran woke up, she found that she was actually sleeping on the bed. She tried her best to recall if she was sleepwalking back to her bedroom from the study.

"Are you awake?" Bai Ziyan heard movement in the bedroom and walked to the door.

"Yes, yes." Su Muran rubbed her messy hair and was confused for a while before she woke up. She suddenly opened her eyes. "Did you carry me in yesterday?"

"What? Do you think you can sleepwalk over?" Bai Ziyan saw through her thoughts and asked back with a smile.

Su Muran blushed and rubbed her hair.

"You didn't say you would come back yesterday, so I thought you..." Before she got off work, she received a call from him saying that he might not be coming back today, so she was relieved that she could occupy the study all night.

"You don't want me to come back?" Bai Ziyan glanced at her, his expression carrying a trace of loneliness.

"I..." Su Muran felt a little depressed. It was clearly him who returned late. Why did she feel that she was wrong?

"Come on. Come and eat after washing up." After saying that, Bai Ziyan turned around and walked out of the bedroom. His expression was no longer as lonely as before.

"Bai Ziyan!" Su Muran was so angry that she realized she had been fooled and rushed into the bathroom in a hurry.

Bai Ziyan smiled and shook his head. A smile that she did not notice flashed across his eyes.

At noon, Su Muran ran to the canteen and casually ordered some food to eat. Because of what happened this morning, she did not eat breakfast and went to work in a crestfallen manner.

She ate a little fast today and choked a few times. Just when she finally drank a few mouthfuls of soup, Bai Ziyan's phone call came in.

"Hello." She patted her chest and picked up the phone.

"What are you doing?" Bai Ziyan heard a voice and asked with a smile.

"Uh." Su Muran was stunned and a mouthful of soup slid straight into her throat. She coughed and also spoke intermittently, "I choked on my food just now."

"Eat slowly." Bai Ziyan smiled and said. He thought about how this girl left without even having breakfast this morning.

"Okay," ___ said. She lowered her head and her face was a little red. She asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

"Today is Grandmother's birthday. I will bring you there to pay your respects."

"Ah?" She almost jumped up and quickly covered the microphone. She lowered her voice and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I wasn't even mentally prepared, and I didn't even buy a gift. How about I go buy it after work today? What does she like? "

Bai Ziyan was speechless as he rubbed the space between his brows." Muran, really, you don't need to buy anything. You just need to go there. "

"But, I..."

___ nodded. "Good boy, listen to me. I still have some things to do. I'll hang up first." After saying that, without waiting for Muran's reply, he turned his head and seemed to say something to the person beside him. Then, he directly hung up the phone.

Then, Bai Ziyan made another call to his sister. "Remember to pick up Muran at five o'clock in the afternoon."

"Are you really ready?" Bai Yinyin asked.

Bai Ziyan smiled and looked at her coldly. "I will give Grandmother a big gift."

In the main hall of Bai family.

Her clothes were fragrant and her hair was messy.

Old Madam Bai was wearing a custom-made golden qipao and was accompanied by Gao Linlin who was beside her as she sat in the room.

"Little Lin, when will Zixiang come over?" The old man asked.

"Grandmother, he finished his work at the company and came over immediately." Gao Linlin smiled and said, "Don't worry. He'll be able to make it in time before you blow the candle."

The old mistress heaved a sigh of relief and smiled in satisfaction.

Qi Ru, who was sitting on the other side, pursed her lips. This old mistress... In her eyes, there was only her eldest grandson. Other people were nothing in her eyes. Don't forget, her Ziyu was also her grandson. She had never seen such a biased Grandmother.

"Aiyo, sister-in-law, I almost fainted from work. When did Second Brother say he would come?" Gao Linlin pretended to ask.

Qi Ru rolled her eyes in her heart, "How would I know? He is a photographer and his whereabouts are unknown every day."

"Sister-in-law, this is your fault. You have to pay more attention to Ziyu. After all, he is your husband. He is not like Zixiang. He even called me when he went out to socialize late."

Old Madam Bai said, "Qi Ru, go and make a call to see if he came today or not."

Qi Ru swallowed her breath and said embarrassingly, "Yes."

"You need to learn from Linlin how to do what a wife should do." Old Madam Bai said again.

Qi Ru forced a smile. "I know."

Gao Linlin proudly curled her lips.

Old Madam Bai looked at the manner of her second granddaughter-in-law and said faintly, "Let Zixiang come back more often in the future. Don't forget that he has a family."

"Yes." Qi Ru lowered her head and agreed.

"Grandmother, I think it is almost time. Zixiang and the others should be arriving soon." Gao Linlin called the maids over and asked them to start preparing.

"Yes, help me out." Old Madam Bai stood up and Qi Ru and Gao Linlin quickly went forward to support her from the left and right.

On the other side, before Su Muran got off work, Bai Ziyan called her and said that he had something to do at night and did not have time to pick her up. He asked his sister to come over.

Outside the kindergarten entrance, a beauty leaned against the car. She wore a red evening gown and a tassel draped over her shoulder. Her skin was fair and her tall figure matched with her curly hair. She was mature and charming and attracted the attention of passers-by.

"Yin Yin." Su Muran recognized the young lady with a glance and walked closer with a smile.

"Sister-in-law." Bai Yinyin playfully blinked her eyes and opened the car door. "My elder brother has something to do. Let me be your flower protector today."

Su Muran burst into laughter and her nervous mood dissipated quite a bit.

"Do I need to change my clothes?" Su Muran pulled the long white dress on her body uneasily. This was what she had changed in the toilet just now.

Bai Yinyin looked up and down at her skirt and shook her empty hand. She said, "No need. You are very beautiful like this. It is just Grandmother's birthday banquet. It is not a luxurious banquet. Muran, don't be nervous. My brother and I are here. "

In the end,

Bai Yinyin drove into a villa and saw rows of maids. In the huge fountain square, there were many good cars parked. It could not be described as luxurious.

Su Muran looked at Bai Yinyin and Bai Yinyin innocently shrugged her shoulders. She supported her chin and thought for a while, "I haven't been here for a long time. It has been two years since the last time I came here."

Two years! Su Muran could only sigh deeply in her heart. Miss, you should not play like this.

"Muran, let's go. Don't stand there anymore. The wind is strong here." She handed the car keys to the maids and intimately pulled Su Muran into the villa.
