Allure Ugly Concubine

Chapter 144 Birthday Present
"Xiaobai, come quickly, there is something delicious!"

Lin Zijiang added twice in the room, and sure enough a round white ball jumped out from nowhere and circled around her legs.

She put the bowl in her hand on the ground, and Xiao Bai immediately started to gobble it up.While Xiaobai was eating, Lin Zijiang smoothed its fur and complained: "Oh...you only come to my place when you are eating now. I don't even think about who picked you up back then, Sleeping with someone for a few nights now and not looking at me at all. What an ungrateful cat!"

After finishing speaking, Lin Zijiang cast his eyes at Chu Yue.The other party was sitting leisurely by the side drinking tea, ignoring her at all.

"That's right." Lin Zijiang suddenly thought of a question, walked up to Chu Yue and asked, "My lord, how do you know my birthday today?"

Hearing this, Chu Yue put down the teacup in his hand.He was silent for a moment, his eyes flickered and said: "This king... accidentally found out about your wedding post by accident."

"Marriage Geng Post? Why do you keep that?" Lin Zijiang narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I still remember when you got married, that expression of displeasure... I thought you threw away everything related to me It's over."

"Ahem! The other things were indeed thrown away, but this king happened to... forgot to throw this away." Chu Yue deliberately acted as if he didn't care about her.

"Heh... It really is that cold and arrogant King of Yue, how could he be willing to have anything to do with an ugly girl like me?" Lin Zijiang said in a sarcastic tone.For some reason, she felt very uncomfortable when she heard that he despised her like that before.

Seeing that she was a little unhappy, Chu Yue regretted his stubbornness, so he wanted to explain again: "Actually..."

"Forget it!" Lin Zijiang interrupted him, "Based on your conditions, it's normal to have that kind of reaction when you lifted the hijab and saw such a wretched bride like me. As for men, I can understand judging people by their appearance."

"However, after I took refuge in you, you treated me well. Especially today, you not only remembered my birthday, but also gave me so many 'full moons'. You have a conscience." Lin Zijiang patted Chu Yue on the shoulder. , "When is your birthday? I will pay you back when the time comes."

Hearing this, Chu Yue's expression suddenly turned cold: "This king...has no birth date, and never has a birthday."

"No way. I read a lot of books, don't try to deceive me!" Lin Zijiang showed a disbelieving expression, "Didn't you have a birthday when you were young? The prince's birthday is such a big deal, you have to show it Let's celebrate with a hundred tables. Even if the emperor can't remember, there is still a concubine? The women in the harem don't treat their sons as if they are treasures. How could Concubine Yin not help you celebrate your birthday?"

Hearing this, Chu Yue's eyes flashed a moment of disappointment: "This king said no, so he didn't!"

Looking at his expression, Lin Zijiang felt that he must have remembered something unhappy.Having been together for so long, Lin Zijiang often sees him angry, but rarely catches the loneliness in his eyes.Thinking that it might be caused by her own problem, she wanted to comfort him.

"If you don't have it, you don't have it! In fact, the birthday is not a big deal. I have lived for more than [-] years, and I have never had a birthday. Isn't it still good?"

Hearing this, a trace of doubt flashed in Chu Yue's eyes: "Didn't you just turn 19 today? Where did you get twenty years?"

Only then did Lin Zijiang realize that he was counted as a modern age, and quickly explained; "Um... I made a mistake, it was eighteen... Anyway, no matter how many years, I always come here by myself. Don't think about it." You don’t have to pay so much attention to birthdays.”

"Alone? Don't you still have your parents and sisters? Don't they remember your birthday?" Chu Yue asked suspiciously.

"They? Huh... I don't even remember myself." Lin Zijiang's expression also fell.Even today, it is only the birthday of the dead Lin Zijiang, not her own.

However, Chu Yue didn't believe it very much: "You lied to me again! If no one remembers, then who wrote your birthday on Geng Post?"

Seeing him asking so hard, Lin Zijiang retorted: "What about you? You said you don't have a birthday, so take out the wedding post and have a look. Whose birthday is it?"

Sure enough, hearing what she said, Chu Yue only opened his mouth, but couldn't answer.

"Look, everyone has their own difficulties and unspeakable secrets. I didn't doubt you at all. Why do you always doubt me?" Lin Zijiang gave him a sideways look.

Hearing this, Chu Yue had no choice but to compromise and said, "Okay, it's even."

"That's right! Today is my first birthday, and I don't know what to do?" Lin Zijiang smirked.

"This king...doesn't know either."

"Okay then, let's follow the customs in my hometown. I see those children eat birthday cakes and sing birthday songs on their birthdays!" Lin Zijiang said with envy in his eyes.It's as if she was in front of the window of a fast food restaurant when she was a child, watching those children celebrating their birthdays inside.

"Birthday egg... what is that?" Chu Yue asked in confusion.

"It's a dessert made of cream and flour. It's eaten on birthdays in our hometown. Actually, I don't think it's delicious, but it looks very beautiful, with various flowers and small animals on it. It's a pity that it doesn't exist here."

Lin Zijiang's eyes at this moment showed the loss of a child who didn't get his beloved toy, which made Chu Yue feel pity in his heart.

"Then you draw the shape, and I will ask the dining room to do it tomorrow."

"Forget it, they can't do it. It's meaningless to say that tomorrow is past time. You can just sing me a birthday song..." Lin Zijiang's mouth showed a faint smirk.

"Sing...sing?" Chu Yue's expression was a little embarrassed, "This king can't."

Seeing his embarrassing appearance, Lin Zijiang couldn't help but chuckled, and laughed out loud: "Forget it. I'm kidding you. It's hard to imagine, how can someone as cool as you sing birthday song, haha..."

Lin Zijiang hugged her stomach and laughed non-stop, but she caught a glimpse of Chu Yue looking at her quietly.She knew that he might get angry if she continued to laugh, so she quickly put away her smile and said seriously, "I'm serious, just say happy birthday to me."

After all, Lin Zijiang looked at him expectantly.But after waiting for a long time, Chu Yue still didn't speak. Her face got closer and closer, almost touching Chu Yue's face.

Immediately, Chu Yue stretched out his right hand, and unceremoniously pushed Lin Zijiang's face away: "Don't get your face so close to this king, don't you know how terrifying it is?"

"Didn't you say you're not afraid?" Lin Zijiang curled his lips in displeasure, stood up and said, "Forget it, I'm going to sleep."

With that said, she turned around to get the cotton wool.

"Happy Birthday!"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Chu Yue quickly shifted his eyes away uncomfortably.He finally uttered the words that were choked in his throat just now.

Hearing this, Lin Zijiang couldn't help curling up the corners of his mouth, with a smile on his face.She turned around and stretched out her hands to Chu Yue: "Where's the gift?"

"what gift?"

"Birthday gifts? It's a custom in our hometown to give gifts on birthdays." Lin Zijiang continued to extend his hand to him.

"Why are there so many events in your hometown's birthday?" Chu Yue's tone was full of dissatisfaction. It was already very difficult for him to say those four words just now.

"Oh, don't be like this, I promise this is the last link. This is my first birthday, as a witness and my boss, just send a gift to show it." Lin Zijiang pulled Chu Yue's sleeve, with a pleading expression on his face.

Seeing her like this, Chu Yue couldn't help but soften his tone: "This king is not prepared, so tell me, what do you want?"

"Could it be that you can give me whatever I want?" Lin Zijiang's eyes sparkled.

"No. I want to listen first." Chu Yue looked at her defensively.

Lin Zijiang pursed her lips in displeasure, and said deliberately: "No way, you have to guard against me even if you give me a gift. Since you are so reluctant, it's better not to give it."

Hearing this, Chu Yue took a step back: "Speak up, I will try my best."

"That's good." Lin Zijiang smiled when he heard him let go, and said the request that he had planned long ago, "I want three days of freedom."

"Three days of freedom?"

"That's right, in the next three days, I have some things to deal with and explain. Sometimes I may come back late, I hope you don't interfere with me." Lin Zijiang said.

"What are you going to do?" Chu Yue asked.

"I...I can't say it yet. But I promise you, I will tell you on the last day. Please, agree to my request too?" Lin Zijiang pleaded again.

Looking into Lin Zijiang's eyes, Chu Yue knew that he could not refuse her, even though he had already guessed who she would go to in these three days.In fact, it was useless to refuse, even if she had already warned her, wouldn't she still meet him in private?It's just that he pretended not to know.If you promise her, maybe you can win a little favor.After all, this was her asking herself for a birthday present.

"Ok."

"Really? Thank you, my lord." A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Zijiang's eyes, and now she had enough time to give an explanation to everyone around her.She didn't tell Chu Yue, nor did she tell anyone about her poisoning, because she didn't intend to let anyone know of her death.

What Xiao Lingzi said today inspired her.She can't stand hypocrisy, so she doesn't want to cry goodbye.She didn't belong to this world, but she broke into the lives of so many people suddenly, and even became the support of Xiaoxuan and Xiaolingzi.Well, if she just disappeared suddenly, at least Xiao Lingzi and the others wouldn't be in despair.
