Chapter 461
To celebrate Duo Duo's birthday, dinner was especially sumptuous in Zhou Lie's house today.
Zhou Lie had ordered the highest quality seafood from an old friend of his, and he even took out a bottle of liquor from his cellar. Liu Minglan was the chef of the day, and she had prepared a tantalizing spread for everyone.
After dinner, they sang the birthday song for Duo Duo, and she blew out the candles on her birthday cake. When they showered her with various presents, she could not stop giggling.
Yun Muqing was invariably moved by the warm atmosphere. At the same time, she could not help but remember how she and Duo Duo had spent the past five years without celebrating a birthday as happy as this one.
Tears welled up in her eyes as she saw Duo Duo's smile. She turned her head away and discreetly wiped her tears.
Chu Feng noticed the change in Yun Muqing's expression. He went up to her, tightly held her arms, and comforted her with his presence.
Yun Muqing smiled at the thoughtful gesture.
Chu Feng, Yun Muqing, and Duo Duo said goodbye to Zhou Lie and his family at ten o'clock. Liu Minglan was reluctant to see Duo Duo leave.
"I'll bring you somewhere before we go home," Chu Feng said secretively.
Duo Duo cheered, "Daddy, do you still have surprises for me?"
"You'll know when we get there," Chu Feng said and gently pinched his daughter's cheeks, not giving away his secrets.
Yun Muqing playfully glared at him. Duo Duo clapped and cheered on the drive there.
Half an hour later, they found themselves hiking up a twisted trail up a mountain in the Yunwu Mountains tourist area, toward the highest spot in Jiangling.
"Is this your surprise? Hiking up a mountain close to midnight?" Yun Muqing huffed while glaring at Chu Feng. She was already drenched in sweat, and her face was red.
She wanted to slap Chu Feng off the mountain. This was no surprise at all! To think that she was looking forward to it!
"You'll get to the surprise soon enough. You'll just have to work hard for it," Chu Feng said with a smile. He seemed relaxed. "I told you to work out more often, but you won't listen."
Yun Muqing pouted and grumbled, "But you always cook such delicious meals! I don't want to think about working out whenever I'm full."
Chu Feng thought about it and realized she made sense.
"Why don't I carry you up?"
"Pah! You pervert!" Yun Muqing said. The mere thought of him carrying her in his arms made her blush.
"Oh well. Good luck! Duo Duo and I will be going ahead."
"You need to be faster, Mommy. We'll wait for you at the top!" Duo Duo was riding piggyback on Chu Feng. She waved happily at Yun Muqing.
"That's easy for you to say when you're not walking!" Yun Muqing huffed.
Yun Muqing gritted her teeth and continued to hike upward.
I swear I'll eat less and work out more! I don't want them to laugh at me anymore!
At the top of the mountain, Yun Muqing found that the surprise was worth the climb. The view of the entire Jiangling under their feet was spectacular.
"Wow, there's a castle over there!"
