BXBX NOVEL Chapter 433 - Whos Xiao Ai?
Chapter 433: Who’s Xiao Ai?
Time passed second by second. Because Ji Haoxue had expectations in her heart, waiting wasn’t unbearable at all.
In the shop, the manager had placed the two completed cakes in the freezer behind the bar counter and instructed the staff, “Xiao Wang, these two cakes are the same. Both are green apple flavored and twelve inches in size. A man will take the left one, while a woman will take the right one.”
“Got it, manager.”
A few hours passed in a flash. At half-past five, Jiang Chunfen’s Audi appeared outside the cake shop.
The car door opened, and Wang Yunzhi got out. As she got out of the car, she said to Jiang Chunfen, “Sister-in-law, wait for me here!”
It turned out that Jian Yu had arranged with the driving school instructor to practice driving for four hours on Friday afternoon, so he handed the matter of collecting the cake to Wang Yunzhi.
Coincidentally, Wang Yunzhi passed by this cake shop after work.
The style of the cake was the only thing written on the receipt and there was no specific signature. When the staff saw that a woman was here to collect the cake, she handed the one on the right to Wang Yunzhi. “Take it well. It’s best if you finish it tonight. This cake can’t be kept overnight.”
Wang Yunzhi smiled and agreed before leaving with the cake.
Ji Haoxue, who was in the car outside the shop, was completely unaware of all this.
The clock pointed to six in the evening. Seeing that Ji Haoxue had no intention of leaving, Sun Tao couldn’t help but persuade her, “Miss, it’s getting late. We have to go back. It’s Young Master Haoyu’s birthday today.”
“Uncle Tao, what time is it?” Ji Haoxue asked listlessly.
“It’s already six in the evening!”
A trace of disappointment flashed across Ji Haoxue’s eyes. She had unknowingly waited for four hours.
She did not see her big brother, but she was certain that he was not around. If he was, she would have recognized him immediately.
Seeing that Ji Haoxue didn’t move, Sun Tao sighed softly. “I’ll go get the cake. Then, let’s go back.”
Ji Haoxue was not interested and nodded dumbly.
…
It was Ji Haoyu’s birthday. In addition, Ji Haoxue had returned to the country. Old Master Ji initially wanted to hold a grand celebration, but Ji Haoyu rejected it, with the reason being that it was his grandfather’s birthday in August. He could hold a grand celebration then. On his birthday, he only wanted to have a meal with his family.
The old man knew Ji Haoyu well, so he agreed. He only called Ji Yanbai and Ji Yansen’s families over. It was not good to be too cold.
When Ji Haoxue returned to the Ji residence, everyone was present and gathered in the living room to chat. The old man looked at the time and couldn’t help but ask, “This Haoxue went out to get the cake at noon. Why isn’t she back yet?”
When Ji Yanbai heard this, he said to Ji Haoyu, “Haoyu, call and ask.”
Ji Haoyu nodded. Just as he was about to take out his phone, the door opened.
“I’m back!” Ji Haoxue’s voice sounded. She had already recovered her usual vigor, as if she had temporarily put aside the gloom in her heart.
“Sister Haoxue!”
Hearing this, Ji Sijia ran over. When she saw Ji Haoxue changing her shoes while holding the cake, she went forward and took it. “Leave the cake to me.”
Ji Sijia took the cake and couldn’t wait to open it on the living room table. The smile on her face froze. “Oh… Who’s Xiao Ai?”
The adults initially did not care about Ji Sijia’s action of opening the cake box in advance, but her words attracted everyone’s attention.
Ji Yanbai was afraid that his daughter was talking nonsense again, so he stood up and went forward to look. On the cake were the words,?“Happy fifteenth birthday to Xiao Ai.”
