Chapter 2104: Chapter 2104: With His Companionship
"Do you think I’m the head of the disciplinary office?" Helian Ling Kong looked at her with the expression of a student being reprimanded, "Here you go!"
Jun Yiyi just noticed the exquisitely packaged pink box in his arms, somewhat surprised, it seemed like a gift.
A soldier with an aura of killing, and a cute pink gift box, truly mismatched.
"What is this?" She took it dazedly, a huge curiosity rising in her heart.
Placed on the table, she untied the pink ribbon full of confusion, opened the box, and when she saw what was inside, Jun Yiyi’s eyes widened, completely stunned.
Inside wasn’t really a breathtaking gift, just a cake, a pink exquisite rose cake tower, topped with a little princess in a powder-blue dress with long hair, a simple yet elegant and cute design.
A sudden warm flow crashed into her cold heart, turning into a mist that rose to her eyes.
Her nose tingled, Jun Yiyi almost shed tears.
Over the years, she grew strong, even cold-hearted; nothing could easily move her hard heart.
But this small cake, emitting small warmth, nearly exploded her suppressed emotions.
What day is today, why give her a cake?
She felt a bit at a loss, suddenly something flashed in her mind, and her eyes widened with surprise.
Ah, she remembered, yes, today is her birthday, the day she was born.
Just that she gradually forgot, because with no relatives around, such a day would only feel especially painful and lonely, better to forget, so in five years in this world, she never celebrated her birthday anymore, thinking she wouldn’t for the rest of her life.
A birthday that no one remembers holds no meaning to celebrate.
But how does he know?
Jun Yiyi’s heart surged, looking at Helian Ling Kong in astonishment, holding her breath, "You, why give me this?"
Could it be he’s remembered everything from the past?
"Celebrating your joining the new department." Helian Ling Kong glanced at her indifferently.
Jun Yiyi felt a vague sense of disappointment, but also a breath of relief, turns out he hadn’t remembered.
But still very pleased, it’s okay even if he hasn’t remembered, as long as he’s here with her for a birthday she hasn’t had in a long time, she’s happy.
In the past, her birthday was always luxurious and lively, the center of attention for everyone, the most cherished little princess by her parents and brother, enjoying endless pampering, never imagining one day, there’d only be herself, growing up alone, celebrating her birthday alone.
At least tonight’s birthday, she’s not alone, there’s his companionship.
Even if every year going forward she’s alone, tonight is warm and happy.
"Why are you crying?" A faint voice of inquiry came from the side.
Jun Yiyi realized her eyes were wet, couldn’t help but wipe her tears awkwardly, and smiled, "Feeling very happy."
"Fool, already an adult, still crying and laughing like a child." Helian Ling Kong’s lips curled into a faint smile, his cool sound imbued with threads of gentleness.
Jun Yiyi glared at him angrily, adults aren’t allowed to cry?
When she was young, she was a headstrong girl who laughed when she wanted to laugh, cried when she wanted to cry; anyway, when she cried, everyone had to gather around her, coaxing and adoring, beloved thousands of times over, completely unable to understand what loneliness felt like.
Now, after going through vicissitudes, finally understands how much love she had gotten once.
