Chapter 484

"Can you be more cheerful? There are so many beautiful girls celebrating your birthday!"

In Happy Qiangui KTV, Li Xiuyu poked Li Zhuangsheng in the waist.

"If you want to make me happy, don't cause trouble for me..." Li Zhuangsheng complained in a low voice.

"I didn't mean to cause trouble. Today is your birthday, and I just want to make you happy." Li Xiuyu pursed her lips, "I paid for the cake and the KTV!"

"Isn't this called causing trouble?" Li Zhuangsheng frowned.

"What did I do?" Li Xiuyu asked back.

Li Zhuangsheng's tone choked. Thinking about it carefully, Li Xiuyu was well-behaved throughout the whole process, except for bringing Hu Mengdie and others.

"Then why did you bring them here?" Li Zhuangsheng asked.

"Because I want you to be happy..."

Before she finished speaking, Hu Mengdie walked over to the two of them and sat down next to Li Xiuyu with a smile: "What are you two siblings whispering about? Don't you want to order some songs?"

Li Zhuangsheng looked up at her and said, "It's so late, isn't there a curfew at your house?"

"Does my presence bother you?" Hu Mengdie looked slightly annoyed.

"Not really, I'm just afraid that you will be blamed by your family." Li Zhuangsheng denied subconsciously.

Hu Mengdie chuckled: "Not today, I told them that I will sleep with Xiu Yu tonight."

Li Zhuangsheng was slightly startled: "Are you going to sleep at my house tonight?"

"Yes, I will sleep with you." Li Xiuyu waved his hand, "Don't worry about it."

Li Zhuangsheng was speechless. Li Xiuyu pushed him and said, "Go and order some songs. Or should I help you order some?"

"No need, I can do it myself." Li Zhuangsheng stood up and went to the song request stage.

"How is Li Zhuangsheng's singing?" Hu Mengdie asked with a smile.

"You know the Fat Tiger in Doraemon? He's a little better than Fat Tiger." Li Xiu Yu teased.

No wonder, I’ve never heard him sing before, I only heard him humming in the bathroom, Hu Mengdie thought.

Zhu Zhixue and Yi Yunshui were ordering songs, and when they saw Li Zhuangsheng coming, they smiled and asked him what song he wanted to sing. Li Zhuangsheng hesitated for a long time. It was true that he sang out of tune. He basically only sang in front of Li Xiuyu, forcing her to listen to his saw-like voice, pretending to be complacent.

He actually knew how out of tune he was singing, so he wouldn't embarrass himself in front of others. But it was good to embarrass himself today, just in case Hu Mengdie heard his out-of-tune singing and her good impression of him would fade!

This was the reason why he didn't speak in front of Hu Mengdie, and this was also the reason why he sang now. It was really interesting. After Li Zhuangsheng input the song title, he silently returned to the sofa and sat down.

"Why don't you order a song too?" Li Zhuangsheng tilted his head and looked at Lin Yuehua who had been silent.

Actually, he had not heard Lin Yuehua sing much. The one he remembered most was the Tsinghua school song. Speaking of the Tsinghua school song, Li Zhuangsheng later heard the real Tsinghua school song on the Internet, which was completely different from the one sung by Lin Yuehua.

In other words, Lin Yuehua didn't know the melody back then, and she just made up the tune at random. However, it feels like her humming is better than the original version.

"It's past the point." Lin Yuehua said.

Li Zhuangsheng looked at the song list on the screen curiously: "What song did you order?"

"When I wake up from my dream."

"Huh...you actually like this kind of song." Li Zhuangsheng said in surprise.

In his imagination, it would not be strange even if Lin Yuehua ordered the national anthem or some military songs.

"I often listened to it when I was a kid, but I probably couldn't sing it very well."

“Really…” Li Zhuangsheng was a little curious about where Lin Yuehua often listened to this song, but he didn’t ask any more questions. He just encouraged her, “It’s okay. I sing out of tune too!”

Last time he went to KTV with Li Xiuyu, Zhu Zhixue and others, he only sang a few songs with Zhu Zhixue. Zhu Zhixue sang quite well, but unfortunately she couldn't lead him. In the end, Zhu Zhixue almost broke down and suspected that Li Zhuangsheng was deliberately making trouble.

After a while, a pair of white thighs appeared in front of him. It was Zhu Zhixue, who leaned against Li Zhuangsheng and forked a piece of pear into his mouth.

Yi Yunshui sat on the other side. This time he sat between Li Xiuyu and Li Zhuangsheng as he wished, and he felt happy.

The next song was "Finally Waiting for You". Li Zhuangsheng almost thought it was Hu Mengdie who ordered it again, but who knew it was Zhu Zhixue this time.

"I finally waited for you, fortunately I didn't give up

Happiness is hard to come by, which makes people cherish it more

Finally waited for you, almost missed you
Meeting you at the best age is not a waste of myself
Finally I waited for you..."

Zhu Zhixue sang with great emotion, and Li Zhuangsheng gently played the hand drum for her. When he came last time, Li Zhuangsheng felt that her singing was very beautiful.

Of all the people I know, Han Miaoyan, who majored in vocal music, probably sings the best. When Li Zhuangsheng reads novels to her, she always hums softly. However, to be honest, Zhu Zhixue's singing voice is no worse than Han Miaoyan's.

However, Zhu Zhixue chose this song as the first song, which might be a sign of his desire to compete with Hu Mengdie. When they first came down from the first mountain, Hu Mengdie had sung this song, which surprised him. He didn't expect this song to be released so early.

Perhaps, at that time, Zhu Zhixue mistakenly thought that she was amazed by Hu Mengdie's singing. Li Zhuangsheng thought so, and his admiration for Zhu Zhixue on his face became even stronger.

Zhu Zhixue's singing became more and more beautiful. She was really talented in singing. At this time, Li Zhuangsheng suddenly thought of the story Zhu Zhixue had told him:
[The bad girl returned to her hometown in despair. Her mother wouldn't let her in. She went to a class reunion. Her former classmates laughed at her. Then the boy stood up and said that the bad girl wasn't that bad anymore. He asked everyone to stop saying bad things about her. Then...the two of them remained good friends. The girl opened a barbecue restaurant. She sang live while running the store. Her business was booming! ]

His heart suddenly sank, as if a wooden stake had suddenly hit it. He looked up at Zhu Zhixue, who was also looking at him with love in her eyes.

"Good, great singing!" Li Zhuangsheng clapped loudly, then hugged Zhu Zhixue tightly, excitedly, "You sang so well, it was simply heavenly music!"

"Sister-in-law does sing beautifully...but your flattery is too loud." Yi Yunshui laughed and teased Li Zhuangsheng for his sudden reaction.

"Flatterer." Li Xiuyu spat lightly, although she also admitted that Zhu Zhixue sang well.

Hu Mengdie was silent, frowning slightly. Lin Yuehua withdrew her gaze indifferently. Sure enough, the look in her eyes at that moment was different from usual.

"Be gentle... I can't breathe..." Zhu Zhixue said with a smile. She was plump to begin with, and now that Li Zhuangsheng was hugging her tightly, her happiness was inevitably mixed with a little pain.

"Who told you to sing so well!" Li Zhuangsheng smiled and poured a glass of water for Zhu Zhixue.

Zhu Zhixue moistened her throat and felt that Li Zhuangsheng's smile seemed a little forced.

Zhu Zhixue sang three songs in a row, followed by Yi Yunshui's song, and then Lin Yuehua's "When Awakening from a Dream".

As people moved around, their seats also changed, and before they knew it, Hu Mengdie sat next to Li Zhuangsheng.

Li Zhuangsheng got up to go to the toilet, and when he came out, he happened to meet Hu Mengdie. But she didn't come to the toilet, she just washed her face in front of the faucet.

"Is it hot in there?" Li Zhuangsheng asked casually, "The air temperature isn't too high, is it?" "I'm fine." Hu Mengdie smiled and wiped her face with the back of her hand. Her face was covered with water droplets, like a lotus emerging from the water.

She deliberately dressed simply today because she knew Yi Yunshui would dress up carefully. But sometimes dressing up too much is not a good thing, parents like little girls who are neat and tidy. And with Yi Yunshui by her side, she will definitely stand out even more.

No one understands her parents-in-law's preferences better than her.

"Well, then I'll go back first."

Li Zhuangsheng nodded and smiled without talking much. But just as he was about to leave, Hu Mengdie suddenly staggered and fell backwards.

"Hey!" Li Zhuangsheng was startled and quickly held her up, "Are you okay?"

"Huh..." Hu Mengdie's face turned pale. She grinned and tried to stand up. "Sorry..."

"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Li Zhuangsheng held Hu Mengdie's back with both hands, feeling a little embarrassed as he had just touched her butt in a panic. He hoped she wouldn't mind.

"Well, it's anemia. I've been losing weight recently." Hu Mengdie supported Li Zhuangsheng's chest with both hands and finally stood firm. "Thank you."

"I'm glad you're okay... Don't rush into losing weight. Just now when we were eating, I told you that you didn't look good, but you didn't eat much."

Li Zhuangsheng loosened his hands. It had been a long time since he had that brief contact just now, and it had also been a long time since he had felt the familiar scent of Hu Mengdie.

He couldn't help but nag a few more words, his tone sounding somewhat reproachful.

"Okay, okay, thank you for your concern, I got it!" Hu Mengdie smiled, "Hey, can I ask you a question?"

"what is the problem?"

"How will we in the future celebrate your birthday?"

Li Zhuangsheng was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer. He scratched his head for a while and said, "It's just an ordinary birthday... Why are you asking this?"

"I see. I don't mean anything special. It just suddenly occurred to me today. I'm a little curious about how I would celebrate someone's birthday."

"oh oh……"

Actually, it wasn’t ordinary. Li Zhuangsheng remembered their birthday in the year they got married, which was quite interesting.

At that time, he and Hu Mengdie were already engaged, and everything that was supposed to happen had happened. That morning, Hu Mengdie drove him to the city and went boating on the lake. They also rented Hanfu and took a lot of photos. In the evening, they camped and had a BBQ.

In fact, that time was quite fun...especially the love hotel where the two of them slept in the city at the end.

Since the whole process was arranged by Hu Mengdie, Li Zhuangsheng only found out that something was wrong with the hotel when he arrived at the hotel entrance. The other party came prepared this time. Fortunately, he grilled a few oysters during the BBQ, and the final result was not bad.

Li Zhuangsheng glanced at Hu Mengdie and couldn't help but think of her charming eyes and sweet voice when they were intimate that night.

At that time, Li Zhuangsheng thought he must be the luckiest man in the world, hugging Hu Mengdie, his heart was full of sweetness. But who could have thought that only a few months would pass.

"What gift did my future self give you?" Hu Mengdie asked again.

"It's nothing, just... a pair of shoes, but they're quite expensive." Li Zhuangsheng said

It was a pair of AJs, which seemed to cost four figures. It was the first time for Li Zhuangsheng to wear such expensive shoes, and Hu Mengdie put them on for him personally, and gently asked him if they fit him well.

Li Zhuangsheng felt that it was a little too big, but he didn't want to trouble Hu Mengdie, so he thought it was just right. At worst, he could just buy a pair of insoles to put in.

But now things have changed and people have changed. Looking at Hu Mengdie again, I have a feeling of "The spring waves are green under the sad bridge, where the beautiful girl once reflected her shadow."

Hu Mengdie is indeed quite good... Enough, stop reminiscing. Why are you still thinking about these things now? Thinking about these things is cheating on Zhu Zhixue's mind!

Li Zhuangsheng forced himself to put aside these distracting thoughts.

"Really? Just a pair of shoes?" Hu Mengdie was speechless and muttered, "How stingy."

"Those shoes are AJ, very expensive!" Li Zhuangsheng couldn't help but defend Hu Mengdie.

Seeing Li Zhuangsheng's serious expression, Hu Mengdie pursed her lips and said, "I've never heard of this brand. It must be a cheap brand."

Li Zhuangsheng couldn't help but argue again: "Luxury sports shoes start at one or two thousand. They are expensive anyway. My most expensive pair of shoes before was only over three hundred."

Hu Mengdie finally couldn't help laughing: "It seems that you like it very much. I was wrong. I shouldn't have said that about your ex-wife!"

Li Zhuangsheng finally realized the teasing in Hu Mengdie's words and blushed slightly. He thought, she's my ex-wife, why are you so anxious?
Let her say whatever she wants. She's talking about herself. What does it have to do with you?
Is this considered being teased? It's so abominable that I was teased by a little girl!
But who can blame this little girl for her special status?

"Do you like the gift I gave you today?" Hu Mengdie asked again.

"Very good, thank you." said Li Zhuangsheng.

Hu Mengdie nodded, smiled and stretched out her hand: "So, how are you going to repay me for what happened last time?"

"What do you mean last time? What happened last time?" Li Zhuangsheng was stunned.

"Last time, you asked me to pay for Hu Mengke to install an air conditioner..."

"Did I give you money?"

"But I paid for the installation. I paid an extra 80 yuan!" Hu Mengdie puffed out her chest. "And you asked me to help you with this matter, but you don't want to give me any explanation afterwards?"

"What do you mean?" Li Zhuangsheng was confused, and then he quickly reached into his pocket and said, "Eighty yuan, I'll give it to you!"

Hu Mengdie reached out again: "I don't want your money, but I want friendship money."

Li Zhuangsheng blinked: "What friend fee?"

"According to your formal logic, I helped you, shouldn't you give me a thank you gift, and then we can settle the matter and live in peace with each other without owing each other anything?"

"Oh, that's the air conditioner for your sister!"

"What does the air conditioner you bought for my sister have to do with me?"

"But I heard from your sister on the phone a few days ago that you actually took the new air conditioner for yourself, and you actually dismantled the old one and gave it to her!"

"I don't care. Anyway, I did install the air conditioner for her when you asked me to!" Hu Mengdie stretched out her hand to Li Zhuangsheng in a naughty manner, "Hurry up, give me the friend fee. Last time it was an eye protector, what is it this time? Give it to me quickly so that we can continue to draw a clear line between us in the future!"

"You are playing tricks!"

"Who is playing dirty? This is called nip the problem in the bud. I am a man-eating monster, I can't be careless! If you dare to ask me to help you for free today, you dare to book a hotel room with me tomorrow!"
