Read Novel Full Chapter 81 A Surprise
Lu Yifeng has been gone for a few days now and she couldn't help but miss him. He would call her once or twice a day.
Right now, she was waiting for his call since he hasn't called her that day. She couldn't help but start wondering if he became so busy there. While she was thinking about how he was doing, her phone suddenly rang.
She quickly took it out of her pocket and checked on who was calling.
Just like she was expecting, it was Lu Yifeng. She gulped nervously and stared at it for a short while before she answered the call.
"Ah, Yifeng. Good evening." She greeted. She tried to sound as calm as possible.
"It's afternoon here." His soft and deep chuckling voice was heard from the other line.
"Oh yeah... haha... so, um... why are you calling?" She wanted to scold herself after asking the question. She sounded like she doesn't want him to call!
"Can't I check on you and our son?"
The side of her lips curled up. "We're doing good. Xiao Gua's asleep right now."
"I see."
"Are you... coming back tomorrow?" She asked. "It's our son's birthday you know."
"Mm. I'll be there, don't worry."
"Should I... go and pick you up at the airport?"
With her question, Lu Yifeng ended up smiling, "Did you missed me that much?"
She pursed her lips. Xia Meilin didn't want to admit to him that she does. "Never mind. I still have a lot to do here. I need to help in preparing for Xiao Gua's birthday. His classmates are coming and so are their parents. We will have a lot of guests tomorrow... especially children."
"I know. I have already given Mo Jing orders about what's need to be done. You don't need to work too hard in preparing for it. Leave it to our servants."
"Okay... Will your... other family be attending?" She asked worriedly. She was sure that Jing Yue and Lu Xian Yu was going to attend. His father was already gone and the only other family that she hasn't meet was his grandfather.
"Yes. Mother has told me that grandfather will come. He wants to meet you and our son."
Xia Meilin couldn't help but get nervous. Will his grandfather be a scary person? But Jing Yue and Lu Xian Yu are really nice despite being a part of the Lu family so she can't just judge him all at once without meeting the old man.
"Don't worry. He'll love our son." As if knowing his wife's worries, Lu Yifeng said this.
"And me?"
"He doesn't have a choice but to accept you. You are already my wife. Besides, I have your back."
She chuckled at what he said. His words made her feel better. "Thank you. By the way, are you sure that you wanted to rent the whole aquarium park? Wouldn't it be too expensive? Renting it for the whole day..."
"You have a rich husband and our son has a rich father, nothing is 'too expensive' for me."
She rolled her eyes at his remark. "Oh right. How can I forget that?" She smiled softly. "Well then, Mr. Lu, thank you for preparing one big surprise for our son."
"No need to thank me, Mrs. Lu. This is just a normal thing for me to do for our family."
"Mm... anyway, I'll go to bed now, it's getting late." After she said this, she couldn't help but yawn a bit. "Good night, Yifeng..."
"Good night."
Before Lu Yifeng can end the call, he heard a soft whisper from the other line, saying: "I miss you."
His eyes softened at this. "I miss you too."
Xia Meilin couldn't help but feel her face heating up. After the call ended she went back in the room and closed the balcony door. She was smiling from ear to ear as she walked towards Little Melon's bed.
She went and lied down beside her son and hugged him to her. She was so happy that moment that her sleepiness left her.
----
Being the birthday boy, Little Melon was nicely dressed. He was wearing a white tuxedo and his hair was neatly combed to the side.
"Momma, why is dada not here yet?" Little Melon couldn't help but get sad. He was waiting for his father since morning and yet he was still not coming.
"Your dad just went to pass by somewhere. Don't worry, he'll come." Xia Meilin knows that Lu Yifeng was going to head directly to where their son's birthday party will take place.
They were inside the car, heading to the aquarium park. When they were close by, Xia Meilin placed a blindfold to cover Little Melon's eyes.
"Momma, why do Mello's eyes need to be covered?" Little Melon asked as he held her mother's hand.
"Because we have prepared a surprise for you, sweetheart."
When the car stopped, Xia Meilin went out while carrying Little Melon in her arms.
"What kind of surprise is it, momma?" Little Melon wanted to remove his blindfold but Xia Meilin was keeping it in place.
She chuckled. "It won't be a surprise anymore if I told you."
The aquarium park they were in right now was a world-class aquarium. Beijing Aquarium is the largest and most advanced inland aquarium in China. It has six halls: Rainforest Wonder, Shark Hall, Whale and Dolphin Bay, Seabed Travel, Feel Pool and Ocean Theater.
Xia Meilin couldn't help but be fascinated by the beautiful blue world when she entered it with Little Melon.
There was no one around the place except for Su Lei who greeted them and lead them to the food court, where everybody was waiting.
Upon entering the food court, Xia Meilin saw Lu Yifeng standing in the middle, wearing a navy blue suit. He was standing in front of a four-tier cake.
Xia Meilin couldn't help but smile. He was the only one that filled her sight.
Everyone was there, including Little Melon's classmates and teachers. Aside from that, Xia Meilin and Lu Yifeng's families were there. They were all quiet.
"You can take off the blindfold now, baby." Xia Meilin whispered to her son.
Little Melon excited removed his blindfold and opened his arms.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY MELLO!!!" Everyone greeted at the same time the moment he opened his eyes.
