Lu Qing had sent her to the entrance and was about to leave, when Lù Yue'an suddenly grabbed his arm. "Brother, I know you have something on, but can you wait for a while and watch me cut the cake before leaving? In the past, all of you were with me, but now there's all these unfamiliar people here so I'm a little afraid. Brother, can you stay with me for a while more?"
As she spoke her eyes turned red, brimming with tears.
Lu Qing was a little reluctant, but when he checked the time it was already past the agreed timing…
Lù Yue'an grabbed his sleeve and bit her lower lip pitifully.
"Brother, this is the first time I'm not celebrating my birthday by your side. You always used to sing me birthday songs; you don't have to sing this time, but can you watch me cut the cake and officially celebrate my eighteenth birthday before leaving? I'll come of age and become an adult today, so I hope you can stay by my side and witness this."
