CHAPTER 94
"What's this?" Ye Yici looked curiously at the cookies, nuts, and drinks that Ye Lianyin brought out.
As Ye Yici approached, Ye Lianyin furrowed her brow and glanced at her thoughtfully before speaking, "These are snacks and grape juice prepared by Qin Zhaoci."
"I want to taste it then." Ye Yici took the plate and placed it on the table. She poured drinks for the elders first before pouring herself a glass.
"Wow, it's delicious! The sweet and fruity taste of grapes." Ye Yici blinked in satisfaction. "Is there anything Qin Zhaoci can't do?"
Ye Lianyin glanced at her and replied seriously, "Probably not giving birth to a child."
"Pffft!" Song Xinchu almost choked on her own daughter's unexpected remark.
Qin Zhongying and Rao Antong exchanged smiles and nodded. "That's right, that's right."
After a while, the household robot brought out the washed fruits and placed them on the coffee table.
"Why isn't Xiaoci here?" Song Xinchu, after eating a few pieces of cantaloupe, curiously asked.
"Who knows what she's up to, being all mysterious," Rao Antong chuckled and shook her head. "Anyway, she asked us to come and accompany Yinyin. As for where she went, only Yinyin probably knows."
Ye Lianyin might knew where Qin Zhaoci had gone, but she didn't want to say. She shook her head and smiled, "I don't know either. She left early in the morning."
"Maybe she went to prepare a birthday surprise for Yinyin." Shen Moci chimed in with a smile.
Ye Lianyin continued chatting with the parents about various topics. As it neared noon, Qin Zhaoci sent her another message.
[Yinyin, I put the meals I prepared last night in the fridge, along with an 8-inch birthday cake. Just heat up the meals in the microwave for five minutes each, and the soup is kept warm in the clay pot. Just bring it out and enjoy.]
Ye Lianyin didn't expect Qin Zhaoci to be so well-prepared. She thought about how late she stayed up last night and how she called Qin Zhongying and the others to accompany her on her birthday.
A wave of tenderness washed over her. Qin Zhaoci, truly knows how to touch people's hearts.
Ye Lianyin was familiar with using both the microwave and the clay pot, as she had developed them with Lin Jiayi before.
After calling Ye Yici into the kitchen to help, Ye Lianyin followed Qin Zhaoci's instructions and heated up the food in the microwave, allowing Ye Yici to bring it out.
"Qin Zhaoci is so thoughtful. She prepared the meals in advance, and even a birthday cake. It's my first time eating something like this." Ye Yici said as she brought out the soup, opening the box containing the birthday cake and placing it on the table.
The birthday cake didn't look particularly appealing, with unevenly spread cream on top. It was evident that Qin Zhaoci wasn't skilled in cake decoration. However, the message written in black cream was filled with Qin Zhaoci's wishes for Ye Lianyin's birthday.
Song Xinchu looked at the cake and the table full of food, and as she saw the happy smile on her daughter's face, she felt a wave of relief in her heart.
She had been hesitant about marrying Ye Lianyin to Qin Zhaoci, fearing that she wouldn't be well taken care of. But now, seeing how Qin Zhaoci thought of her in every aspect, she was greatly reassured. It was hard to find someone as considerate as Qin Zhaoci.
Qin Zhongying also saw a birthday cake for the first time and didn't know what to do. It wasn't until she received a message that caused her optical brain to vibrate slightly, that she lowered her head to check.
She smiled and picked up the cake box that was placed aside and took out the wax candles shaped like a 2 and a 1, inserting them into the cake.
After lighting the candles, Qin Zhongying instructed 007 to turn off the lights and began singing the birthday song.
"When we sing the birthday song, Yinyin, remember to close your eyes and make a wish, as Xiaoci instructed." Qin Zhongying said, noticing Ye Lianyin's absent-mindedness and pausing to remind her.
Ye Lianyin quickly closed her eyes, clasping her hands together with crossed fingers in front of her chest, and earnestly made a wish.
"Okay, Yinyin, blow out the candles." Qin Zhongying commanded like a conductor, taking charge.
Ye Lianyin leaned forward and blew out the candles.
007 turned on the lights, and everyone began to eat.
"Mmm, the cake is delicious." Ye Lianyin exclaimed. After finishing the meal, Ye Lianyin cut the cake for everyone, and Ye Yici started expressing her admiration once again.
"Where did Xiaoci learn all these things? She's so good at making her wife happy." After the meal, Qin Zhongying chuckled and whispered in Ruan Antong's ear, "Did she inherit that from me?"
Ruan Antong gave her a playful glare and pouted, "You're not as good at charming people as our daughter is."
"While I may not be as good as her, I still know how to make my wife happy." Qin Zhongying smiled, squeezing Ruan Antong's hand affectionately, her eyes filled with love.
Upon seeing the intimate display between Qin Zhongying and Ruan Antong, Song Xinchu couldn't help but recall the impatient expression on Ye Yufeng's face. Years of disappointment turned into complete resignation in that moment.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Lianyin bid farewell to the elders and left.
Not long after, Qin Zhaoci messaged her, asking her to come to the aircraft flying base.
Before leaving, YeLianyin injected herself with a suppressant and then drove to the flying base.
"You're here." Qin Zhaoci was waiting at the entrance and immediately took Ye Lianyin's hand, leading her onto the aircraft.
Once seated in the co-pilot's seat, Qin Zhaoci skillfully started the aircraft and headed towards the pastoral planet.
It had been a month since Ye Lianyin's last visit to the pastoral planet. The green fields of the planet had grown significantly since then. Through the screen, Ye Lianyin not only saw many greenhouses but also witnessed cows and sheep grazing below.
After a moment, Qin Zhaoci increased the speed, and the aircraft descended onto a landing platform.
Qin Zhaoci unfastened her seatbelt and held Ye Lianyin's hand, preparing to disembark.
Ye Lianyin paused, looking at the snowflakes floating outside the window, blinked her eyes, and gave Qin Zhaoci a look as if to say, "Are you serious?".
Qin Zhaoci found her expression amusing and raised her hand to press the button for the aircraft's cabin door.
Ye Lianyin expected to feel a chill rushing in, but instead, she saw a long glass tunnel.
"Let's go." Qin Zhaoci said, holding her hand. "I had the real estate company build a tunnel connecting the aircraft and the spaceship so that we won't feel cold."
Ye Lianyin nodded and looked through the glass, observing the snowflakes drifting outside. The view shifted as they landed in the tunnel, revealing a small courtyard with walls adorned in shades of orange and white.
Despite the heavy snowfall, the courtyard was not covered in layers of snow. Instead, water dripped continuously from the eaves, while the pebble path in front of the courtyard remained snow-free.
"You installed a snow-melting device." Ye Lianyin guessed immediately.
"Mmm, at this speed rate of snowfall, the courtyard would have been completely buried." Qin Zhaoci chuckled and shook her head. "Come on, let's see our new courtyard."
Qin Zhaoci led Ye Lianyin to the camera in the corridor, pushed open a small door, and walked inside.
The interior was warm and cozy. Upon entering through the small door and turning right, they arrived in a living room furnished with wooden furniture, exuding a delightful ambiance.
On the far right of the living room was an open-style kitchen. To the left of the kitchen was a rectangular wooden dining table, not too large, accommodating a maximum of six people.
A candle holder adorned the center of the table, surrounded by a bouquet of freshly bloomed roses and steak cutlery on both sides.
Looking at the wall of the living room, Qin Zhaoci had arranged balloons that spelled "Happy Birthday, Yinyin." She also decorated it with sky-blue ribbons and string lights, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.
Qin Zhaoci picked up a rose that had been prepared in advance and placed it in Ye Lianyin's arms, feeling somewhat embarrassed as she said, "It may be a bit simple, but this is my heartfelt wish for you. Happy birthday, and may you always be happy and blessed."
"Mmm," Ye Lianyin smiled as she glanced around. "I love it."
"Then let's start with the steak." Qin Zhaoci gestured towards the steak on the table. "The table has a heating device, so the steaks are guaranteed to be hot."
Qin Zhaoci poured red wine into their glasses, already prepared, and pulled Ye Lianyin to sit down, ready to start slicing the steak.
As night gradually fell, Qin Zhaoci did not turn on the lights in the living room. Under the warm glow of candlelight, her face flickered with a gentle and tender expression.
Ye Lianyin propped her chin on her hand, gazing at her with a mesmerizing look, a smile playing on her lips.
"Here," Qin Zhaoci cut the steak and exchanged her plate with Ye Lianyin's. "Try it."
"Mmm, delicious." Ye Lianyin picked up her fork, dipped it in the sauce, and took a bite of the steak.
Qin Zhaoci watched Ye Lianyin's every move through the candlelight, and it seemed as if time slowed down.
Watching her parted crimson lips, the slow and deliberate movement of her chewing, and the tongue that licked her lips.
Qin Zhaoci found everything she did incredibly sexy, and she instinctively swallowed a gulp of saliva.
"Eat." Ye Lianyin said as she noticed Qin Zhaoci staring at her absentmindedly. She lifted the glass of red wine and took a small sip, nodding. "Mmm, it tastes even better than last time."
"Mmm," Qin Zhaoci lowered her head and began enjoying her own portion of steak.
When they had almost finished their meal, Ye Lianyin turned her head to look out the window and found that everything outside was no longer visible.
Outside the window was cold, but inside the room, it was warm. It was truly a stark contrast. Ye Lianyin couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder.
"Are you full?" Qin Zhaoci wiped her mouth and smiled at Ye Lianyin.
Ye Lianyin nodded. "Mm, it was delicious. The cake at noon was also delicious, but it's a pity you weren't there."
"That's why I came tonight." Qin Zhaoci smiled, her eyes curved. "Today, your daytime belonged to them, but the night belongs to me alone."
"Do you want to dance? I recently learned the waltz." Qin Zhaoci opened the nearby record player and extended her hand to Ye Lianyin.
Ye Lianyin smiled and placed her hand in Qin Zhaoci's, following her lead as they gracefully danced.
Qin Zhaoci's dance steps were not very skilled, and she accidentally stepped on Ye Lianyin's feet, causing her to burst into laughter.
At some point, Qin Zhaoci embraced her waist and softly asked, "May I?"
Ye Lianyin closed her eyes, nodded, and tiptoed, taking the initiative to kiss Qin Zhaoci's lips.
The candlelight in the living room flickered gently as the two of them turned and made their way to the bedroom. The bedroom floor and the bed were scattered with vibrant rose petals, and only the bedside lamps were turned on.
With the ambiance of intimacy and pheromones, their clothes fell off one by one, accompanied by the sound of fabric hitting the floor. They both fell onto the bed with a thud, their shadows intertwining on the wall, as they indulged in passionate intimacy.
