Tong Lu touched her round belly. The doctor said that the baby would be born in the next few days, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. But it did not seem possible tonight. It didn't matter. She would be happy no matter what her daughter wished for.
"Shanshan, let's blow out the candles together."
Shanshan grinned so much that her eyes curved into crescents. She blew hard and extinguished all the candles as the crowd sang the happy birthday song together with Tong Lu. She wanted to eat the prettiest piece of cake, but Leng Yejin refused to let her eat it. He even lectured her with a stern face, and little Shanshan almost cried.
In the end, Shanshan quickly reacted. "Dad, did I offend you?"
"No, but today is your mom's birthday. The prettiest piece should be given to your mom, don't you think so?"
"But mom said she'll let me eat it," Shanshan pouted.
