Song Qingchun smiled warmly at Su Zhinian and pointed at the candles on the cake. "It's time to cut the cake."
"Okay." Su Zhinian nodded as he reached for the knife and fork. He stood up and cut the exquisite cake into four pieces. Then, he scooped one piece for Song Qingchun before placing it on his own plate.
Su Zhinian did not like sweet things. He only took one bite of the cake, and it was already too much for him to eat. However, he still picked up the fork and continued to eat seriously.
This was the birthday cake that she had given him …
He could not even remember how long it had been since he had a birthday cake of his own.
As far as he could remember, the last time he celebrated his birthday was when he was six years old.
At the time, he and his mother were still living at his maternal grandfather's house, and his mother had coincidentally received her bonus that day, so she had bought him a birthday cake.
Then, he realized how different he was. His auntie, who already disliked him and his mother, started to ostracize them. When he was seven, his mother's salary was taken away by his auntie, and his birthday was ruined just like that. Then, he turned into a monster in everyone's eyes. He was sent to a mental hospital by his mother. On his eighth birthday, he did not even get a birthday present or a cake. He was locked up in a room at the mental hospital alone, staring at the blue sky outside through the small window.
After he was released from the mental hospital, he started to live at the school dormitory. At that time, he had become a person who did not like to interact with people, did not like to talk, and did not know how to smile. None of his classmates knew about his birthday, and his mother could not spend it with him due to work. Therefore, his birthday became a normal day.
It was not until … until he met her that the thought of celebrating his birthday appeared in his heart for the first time.
Even though that birthday was simply to have a private dinner with her.
However, such a small wish was shattered in the end.
She did not show up, and she did not even greet him. He stood alone on the street, listening to her calling him "Brother Yinan" in a high-class restaurant under the bright lights.
That wasn't the worst part. The worst part was on his birthday that year. He drank too much and made a mistake. It was that mistake that completely shattered the little bit of relationship they had worked so hard to get closer to her.
On that birthday, he … forced himself on her.
Su Zhinian's hand that held the fork was shaking.
After that, he, who had not celebrated his birthday for many years, did not have the thought of celebrating it anymore.
He really thought he would never have a birthday again in his life.
However, he did not expect that she would give him such an unexpected surprise on his birthday this year.
It was like the first time they met. He had been abandoned by the whole world, and she was the only one who had given him the most sincere trust. Big Brother said you are a bad person, so you are a bad person.
The emotions that he had not forgotten for so many years once again surged in his chest, causing Su Zhinian's throat to feel suffocated.
The cake was soft and sticky, but it took a lot of effort for him to swallow it.
He clearly felt that his eyes were a little hot and sore.
