Chapter 34

Happy Birthday

Su Luo booked a luxurious private room at the same bar from before and ordered a lot of delicious food and drinks. Because she looked too young, Xu Jiaojiao’s identity card was checked at the entrance of the bar before she was let in. The waiter brought her into the private room.

Su Luo, who had arrived early, immediately pounced on her and hugged her. She said enthusiastically, “Happy 20th birthday, baby!”

Xu Jiaojiao looked at the decorations in the private room. “It’s just a simple birthday. You made it way too grand.” There were a lot of flowers and balloons in the private room.

“It has to be grand!” Su Luo pulled Xu Jiaojiao’s hand to the sofa. “Today is your 20th birthday, and it’s a once-in-a-lifetime event. You mustn’t have any regrets.” She let go of Xu Jiaojiao’s hand and pushed the present on the coffee table toward Xu Jiaojiao. “This is my birthday present for you. Happy birthday, Jiaojiao.”

“Thank you.” Xu Jiaojiao smiled.

“Quickly, open it and see if you like it,” Su Lu urged.

Xu Jiaojiao could feel Su Lu’s excessive enthusiasm. As she opened the packaging, she said suspiciously, “Did you give me something strange?”

“How is that possible? This is a gift that I’ve carefully chosen!” Su Luo said seriously.

Xu Jiaojiao opened the box and her eyes lit up when she saw the paint from a foreign brand. “It’s very difficult to buy paint from this brand! I’ve tried to get someone to buy it for me several times, but I could never get it. You actually managed to buy it!”

Su Luo said proudly, “Of course! Who do you think I am? Buying paint is a cinch for me!”

Xu Jiaojiao hugged her neck and said sweetly, “Luoluo, you’re too kind. You must have spent a lot of effort to buy this paint.”

“No, I didn’t,” Su Luo said casually. “I only took two days to go overseas and searched more than ten shops. The most important thing is that you’re happy! You’re the most important thing!” As long as Xu Jiaojiao was happy, her trip was not in vain.

“Thank you, Luoluo.” Xu Jiaojiao raised her head and thanked her sincerely. Although they had not known each other for long, she could feel that Su Luo was sincere towards her.

Su Luo was not used to the emotional atmosphere. She giggled and said, “Alright, alright. Don’t seduce me with such a gaze. I can’t marry you no matter how much you look at me like that.”

“Hmph, who’s seducing you?” Xu Jiaojiao snorted. She picked up the paint and saw that there were a few books underneath. The books were completely pink and strangely girly. “What are these?”

A sly look flashed past Su Luo’s eyes. “I saw these when I was looking for your gift. I actually bought a few books for you to broaden your horizons.”

“Is this a tutorial for storybook illustrations?” Xu Jiaojiao guessed as she flipped open the book. However, when she flipped to the first page, her small face immediately blushed. “Luoluo! Why did you buy this for me?!”

“What’s wrong with it?” Su Luo smiled evilly. “You’re already 20 years old, and you can get legally married. Besides, this is just a slightly explicit comic. It’s far from the real adult world. If you can’t even stand this, what will you do in the future?”

“I don’t want it. Take it back and read it for yourself.” Xu Jiaojiao stuffed the manga into Su Luo’s arms. Although she had taken sex education classes, she had never seen naughty movies, erotica, or shady comics, so she was still very shy about sex.

“I’ve already read them all,” Su Luo said.

“??!”

“I bought two sets.” Su Luo held up two fingers. “How can I not buy a set for myself when it’s so interesting?”

“…”

Xu Jiaojiao still wanted to refuse, but Su Luo stuffed the comic book into her bag. “Alright, take it back first. Who knows, you might want to read it one day.” After saying that, she changed the topic. “Have you sent the bar’s address to your brother?”

“Yes, he’ll be here soon,” Xu Jiaojiao replied. “Actually, I don’t have many friends. You don’t have to book such a big private room. It’s too wasteful.”

“That won’t do!” Su Luo put her arm around Xu Jiaojiao’s shoulder. “We can have fewer people, but the space can’t be small. Otherwise, that annoying Lu Huan will mock you again if she finds out.”

“I don’t care what they say about me.”

Just as Xu Jiaojiao finished speaking, the door of the private room was pushed open and a gentle voice sounded, “Jiaojiao…”

“What the f*ck?!” Su Luo stood up abruptly and leaped in front of Xu Jiaojiao. She said angrily, “What are you doing here?”

Lu Zhuo’s gaze swept past Su Luo and finally landed on Xu Jiaojiao. There was a gentle smile on his lips as he said, “Jiaojiao, today is your birthday. I specially came over to celebrate it with you.” He was holding a bag from a famous jewelry brand in his hand. It was obvious that he had prepared a birthday present for Xu Jiaojiao.
