Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 594 Oh my god!

Meijia and Wanyu entered 3602 one after the other. Wanyu exclaimed to the stunned Yifei and the others, "You guys aren't ready yet?!"

"There was a slight mishap..."

If it weren't for Zi Qiao's unusual behavior that left everyone stunned for a few minutes, and the considerable time spent discussing whether the box contained a gift from Zi Qiao to Mei Jia, they would have been able to finish the task smoothly before Mei Jia came in.

The group, who were just a little short of finishing setting up the birthday venue, gave Wan Yu and Mei Jia an awkward smile that looked more like a grimace.

Unlike Ziqiao, who rushed into the bathroom without even looking up, Meijia naturally saw the balloons, fairy lights, banners, and ribbons decorating the living room.

Even though she had already seen the banner that read "Happy Birthday, Meijia," Meijia still asked another question in disbelief.

"Oh my god, did you prepare this for me?"

"certainly."

Yifei smiled brightly and said, "Didn't we all say last year that if we had the chance to get together this year, we would celebrate your birthday with you?"

"We...have always remembered."

Upon hearing Yifei's words, Yu Mo and the others lowered their heads, their toes digging into the ground in embarrassment.

In fact, if Wanyu hadn't reminded them, they would have only remembered that the day after tomorrow was Valentine's Day, and they wouldn't have realized that today was the 12th.

Now that Yifei has said this, everyone feels a great pang of conscience.

"Thank you, thank you everyone."

Although it was obvious to anyone with eyes that the setup for a birthday celebration that had been planned for a year couldn't have been done in such a rushed manner, for Mika, who had never really celebrated a birthday properly in her life, the scene before her was enough to move her to tears.

Everyone looked at Mika, who was so excited she was almost crying. They were silent for a moment, then opened their arms to her.

Happy birthday, Mika!

Everyone smiled brightly and said, "We'll celebrate your birthday with you every year from now on."

"Thank you everyone, I love you all so much!"

Upon hearing this, Meijia was immediately moved and hugged everyone.

After the hug ended, Mika tilted her head back slightly and desperately fanned her reddened eyes with both hands.

On such a happy day, she didn't want to shed any tears.

After calming down a bit, Meijia began to carefully examine everything around her: "You guys did a great job decorating. It's much better than when we decorated for Nanfeng's birthday the time before last."

"That's right."

Yifei proudly tilted her head back and snorted, "Don't you even know who organized this?"

"Sister Yifei, I knew you were the best."

Meijia smiled sweetly, her eyes still darting around.

Soon, the oversized gift box in the very center of the coffee table came into her view.

"Is this... a cake?"

Meijia examined the gift box, muttering to herself, "If it contains a cake, isn't it a bit too big?"

"Mika."

Youyou rushed to Meijia's side and gently placed her hands on Meijia's shoulders.

She looked directly into Mika's big, bright eyes and said excitedly, "I have some really exciting news for you. You might think I'm kidding you at first, but you have to believe me, it's true!"

"What news?"

Just as Youyou was about to explain to Meijia, Yifei pointed directly to the gift box and said casually, "This isn't actually a cake; it's a birthday present from Ziqiao for you."

Meijia was stunned, but Youyou was even more shocked than her.

Youyou suddenly turned her head towards Yifei, her eyes wide, and said impatiently, "This is such explosive news, let me announce it, let me announce it!"

"Okay, okay..."

Yifei stretched out her hand, indicating that Youyou could continue speaking, and that she would definitely not interrupt.

Upon hearing this, Youyou excitedly turned back. She opened her mouth to speak, but suddenly froze for several seconds.

"But you've already said everything!" she cried out in frustration.

Seeing this, Yu Mo stepped forward to comfort Youyou: "Youyou, it's alright."

"Nanfeng and the others haven't returned yet, so you can tell them this big news later."

"That's right!"

Youyou's eyes lit up, and she instantly burst into laughter, as if her whole demeanor had changed.

She shouted to the crowd, "It's settled then! When the others get back, I'll be the one to deliver this big news, and none of you can take it from me!"

Everyone nodded, both amused and exasperated. They hadn't intended to compete with Youyou for this kind of thing in the first place.

Everyone looked at Mika, who was still frozen in place, and called out, "Mika? Mika?"

At this moment, Mika felt that she suddenly started to have tinnitus, and her whole head was buzzing.

Did she hear that right?

Lu Ziqiao?

Did you prepare a birthday gift for yourself?

Don't be ridiculous. He wouldn't even be willing to pay for the wrapping of this beautifully packaged gift box, let alone a birthday present!

But what if it's true?

Amidst the shouts of the crowd, Mika snapped out of her daze. She scoffed, "Don't be ridiculous. My birthday isn't on April Fool's Day. Why would you play a joke like that?"

Guan Gu said, "Meijia, we didn't lie to you."

"Actually, we were also shocked, but that's the truth."

"There's an invoice on the gift box; you can take a closer look."

Upon hearing this, Meijia raised an eyebrow, her face full of suspicion, and walked slowly toward the coffee table.

It's only a few steps from the door to the coffee table, but it took Meijia almost half a minute to get there.

At this moment, she could no longer tell whether she felt more doubt or more anticipation.

When Meijia picked up the invoice with her stiff hand and saw the three big characters "Lu Ziqiao" clearly written on it, she already believed what everyone had said.

Or perhaps, this was exactly what Mika had always dreamed of.

"Is this...is this real?"

Even at this point, Mika still couldn't believe it.

Wan Yu smiled broadly and said, "The things are all here. If they weren't for you, were they for me?"

Meijia's eyes were brimming with tears, but she still haughtily snorted, "I have to open it first to see what's inside. What if the gift inside is as casual as before? I can't let him fool me so easily."

As she spoke, she couldn't wait to start untying the ribbon on the gift box.

Although Yifei and the others felt that Meijia should at least wait until Ziqiao came out of the bathroom before opening her gift, they didn't say anything more when they saw Meijia's happy expression with her lips curving up and her eyes sparkling.

It's her gift anyway, so it doesn't matter whether I open it sooner or later.

It's a birthday, so the most important thing is that Meijia is happy.

Meijia was happily unwrapping the gift box, while Wanyu asked expectantly, "Where's Ziqiao? Where is he now?"

Guan Gu pointed to the bathroom: "Zi Qiao is in the bathroom now. Judging from how fast he rushed in, he probably won't be out for a while."

Wan Yu nodded, then looked at Zeng Xiaoxian, whose face was pale: "What's wrong with Teacher Zeng? He looks very listless."

"Him."

Yifei scoffed, "He's emptying his stomach right now, preparing to smash the coffee table and eat it later."

Wan Yu was completely stunned: "When did Teacher Zeng develop pica?"

Yifei shrugged: "Who told him to talk big?"

Before Wanyu could ask any more questions, Meijia, who had been busy all day, finally opened the gift box.

She stared blankly for a moment, then with slightly trembling hands, she took out the orange-red high-end coat from the gift box and showed it to everyone.

"ah?!!"

Yifei and the others stared in shock, most of them recognizing the expensive coat in Meijia's hand.

Especially for Wanyu, this coat was one of the two gifts she most wanted to receive for Valentine's Day.

Wanyu exclaimed excitedly, "Oh my god!"

After a moment of silence, everyone exclaimed in unison, drawing out the last syllable of their exclamations, "My God!"

This coat is so expensive, Ziqiao really went all out this time!

Just then, Ziqiao came out of the bathroom.

He lowered his head and shook his wet hands, then looked up to see Mika holding the orange-red coat and looking at him with teary eyes.

Ziqiao was immediately shocked: "My God, Meijia, what have you done?!"

Before Ziqiao could rush forward and snatch the coat back from Meijia's hands, Yifei and the others had already jumped and stomped around Ziqiao, slapping him hard on the chest and back one after another.

He was speechless for a moment, only coughing repeatedly.

Yifei gave Ziqiao a thumbs up: "Well done! Ziqiao, from now on I'll look at you in a new light."

Youyou, on the other hand, looked excited, as if saying, "My family finally has an heir!" She exclaimed, "My nephew, you're amazing! You gave us such a big surprise without saying a word."

"Great, your aunt thinks highly of you!"

Guan Gu nodded emphatically: "That's right, Zi Qiao. Even if you were a scumbag before, as long as you're willing to turn over a new leaf and start anew, let bygones be bygones."

Yu Mo corrected, "Guan Gu, that's called turning over a new leaf and starting anew."

Zeng Xiaoxian patted Ziqiao on the shoulder: "Although you made me lose face in public, no matter what, Ziqiao, you were really a man this time."

"I'll let you use the title of 'Good Man of the Apartment' for one more day."

The sudden praise from everyone left Ziqiao completely bewildered, with no idea what had happened.

It wasn't until he tilted his head slightly that he noticed the banner on the wall and the surrounding decorations.

Ziqiao suddenly realized what was happening, as if he had just woken up from a dream.

These guys... could they have mistaken this for a birthday present I was going to give to Mika?

Wrong! Wrong! Completely wrong!

This isn't a birthday gift I was going to give to Meijia; it's clearly a Valentine's Day gift I bought for Zhanbo to give to Wanyu!

Ziqiao's lips twitched uncontrollably, and a miserable look appeared on his face that was neither crying nor laughing.

【You guys have really caused Zhanbo a lot of trouble... and I've caused you even more trouble!】

Don't you guys even consider where you're going to get the money to buy such expensive coats?!

I'm coming
