Chapter 1971: Chapter 1971: Birthday Cake
After a long time, Su Yunling let out a light laugh and raised his hand to rub the top of Gu Zhiqi’s head.
"What about the little cake?" Gu Zhiqi suddenly remembered the cake and looked up slightly at Su Yunling, saying, "You said earlier, there’s a little cake."
Su Yunling clicked his tongue softly in secret, withdrew his hand, took out a cake from the Storage Ring, and handed it to Gu Zhiqi, "Here."
After getting the little cake, Gu Zhiqi opened it directly.
Su Yunling placed a candle on the cake and asked her to make a wish.
"It’s all just nonsense." Gu Zhiqi muttered quietly while looking at the candle on the cake.
Even though she said that, she still closed her eyes and started making a wish.
Seeing this, Su Yunling chuckled lightly but didn’t speak.
After Gu Zhiqi blew out the candle, she started focusing on eating the little cake.
Seeing her eat with relish, Su Yunling found it amusing and asked, "Wasn’t there a cake prepared at the birthday banquet?"
Gu Zhiqi shook her head while mumbling, "Not the same, other cakes aren’t as delicious as yours."
"Is that so." Su Yunling murmured softly and then continued to Gu Zhiqi, "From now on, for every birthday, I’ll personally make you a cake, Zhizhi."
After speaking, Su Yunling looked at Gu Zhiqi and asked, "How about that, Master Zhi?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi shook her head seriously, "Not good."
Su Yunling: ?
"If I don’t have a birthday, will you not make one for me?" Gu Zhiqi, still holding the unfinished cake, looked up slightly, gazing expectantly at Su Yunling.
Mmm, it seems like she’s playing the pity card.
Su Yunling’s mouth twitched lightly, saying, "Of course not."
"Whenever you want, I can make it for you."
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi nodded in satisfaction and then buried her head to continue eating the cake.
Though the cake was small, Gu Zhiqi didn’t eat much, only managing a third before she couldn’t eat anymore and decided to put the cake away.
As soon as the cake was put away, Su Yunling’s finger covered Gu Zhiqi’s face, gently caressing her cheek.
"You’ve got cake on your face."
Gu Zhiqi didn’t move, letting him do as he pleased on her face.
However, his finger lingered on her face a bit too long.
"Are you sure I have cake on my face?"
"Yes, you do." Su Yunling said seriously, and with that, he quickly pecked her face.
Gu Zhiqi: "..."
After pecking her, Su Yunling sat up straight in satisfaction and casually withdrew his hand.
Facing Gu Zhiqi’s suspicious gaze, Su Yunling remained earnest, "Really, there was some."
Gu Zhiqi didn’t believe him.
However, she didn’t say anything more about it and instead brought up another topic, "We’re already here, want to go in and meet my parents?"
Hearing this, Su Yunling was silent for a moment, "Will your parents kill me?"
He hadn’t met Father Gu or Mother Gu and didn’t know their temperament.
But he knew one thing.
That is...
If he had a pretty and obedient daughter and someone dared to elope with her, he’d definitely break their legs.
Gu Zhiqi: "..."
"Better meet them later."
She wasn’t sure if her parents would break Su Yunling’s legs, but her brothers certainly would.
Better to wait.
At least, they must not know that the two have been in a relationship since before she came of age.
Upon hearing this, Su Yunling said softly, "We haven’t prepared anything today, visiting so hastily wouldn’t be appropriate."
"Besides, there’s still things to do next."
Saying this, Su Yunling gave Yun Sen a command, "Drive, to Shadow Pavilion."
