The voice was crisp and mesmerizing. It sounded as if it came from a faraway, ethereal source, passing through the galaxies and penetrating her soul. Yu Lili's heart was touched.
Ou Ming had changed into a burgundy suit. His hands carefully held a huge cake as he came closer. On the cake was an arrangement of lit candles–exactly 25 of them.
Two beautiful cartoon characters were drawn on the edge of the cake. However, the lines were wiggly and uneven. It took a lot of effort to make out that it was a boy and a girl.
"Wow!" Li Jianyue stood up and looked over. Her big round eyes remained fixated on the cake as she exclaimed, "Is it Auntie Lili's birthday today?"
The sweet and saccharine sound of the little girl's voice broke the romantic silence that was in the air.
Ou Ming's lips lifted in a smile as he walked over. He stopped in front of Yu Lili and said, "I'm now returning you the birthday celebration that I owed you this year. Happy Birthday."
