Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 377: 377: Are you implying that she has thick skin?

”Go sleep with your sister!”

Gu Xiaotong was about to explode on the spot, looking at her own iron-willed straight man, she was gnashing her molars!

She held her forehead, pointed behind her, and said, ”Flowers, candles, cake, it’s your birthday! You didn’t forget your own birthday, did you...”

”...” Birthday... This scene suggests celebrating a birthday, it’s almost spooky...

Li Yan’s deep eyes looked back, only then noticing the cake the little woman mentioned, which was a birthday cake in the shape of a Sharp Weapon, with crooked letters on top saying — Happy Birthday, Hubby!

No need to guess, this was clearly the handiwork of his little woman. Nowadays, cakes are usually longevity peaches or roses, rarely new styles like this.

”Did you make it?”

Li Yan withdrew his gaze from the cake; if Gu Tong didn’t say anything, he would have truly forgotten...

Because ever since he could remember, he never celebrated a birthday...

”Of course! Your wife is an all-around talent, capable of attending banquets, cooking, warming the bed, and beating up bullies. So, are you touched?”

Gu Xiaotong eagerly leaned closer, her face full of smugness, like a child wanting to earn a gold star, with a look of seeking praise all over.

”Touched.”

Li Yan’s thin lips opened, exceptionally uttering these two words. His mouth curled into a barely perceptible faint smile.

This little woman was truly an inexhaustible treasure trove; no matter how much he explored, she could always surprise him.

She was like sunshine, capable of warming his cold heart, making the armor on it disappear without a trace.

”I’m glad you’re touched!” It wasn’t a waste of her busy afternoon, nearly blowing up the kitchen.

Gu Tong’s face held a bit of pride as she tugged Li Yan’s hand and walked him inside the house. She sat him down in a chair and said, ”Make a wish, make a wish, it won’t work if you go past your birthday.”

Li Yan leaned back in the chair; since this was his first birthday, he naturally didn’t understand the process, but fortunately, Gu Tong cared about these things and kept reminding him.

He clasped his hands together naturally, resting them on the table.

After thinking for a moment, he said, ”I wish for world peace!”

”...” Screw you...

Gu Tong was about to swear but sharply caught the mischievous smile in her own Earl’s eyes.

She suddenly realized that this guy did it on purpose...

Upon thinking so, she got a wicked idea, plopped down across from him, clasped her hands together, and said, ”I wish my hubby lives a long life, that we grow old together, have a whole house of kids, he takes care of the family, does the laundry and cooking, and we live happily ever after...”

Gu Xiaotong, with her strong sense of revenge, finished making this series of wishes, then mischievously looked at her own Earl, ready to enjoy his speechless expression.

However, Li Yan has always been an unpredictable man. A touch of seriousness added to his face as if contemplating some serious issue, he lazily propped his chin on one hand and said, ”You don’t need to wish for that; I will fulfill it for you!”

”Ha???” Gu Xiaotong almost thought she was hearing things...

Her eyes widened, about to pop out...

Li Yan lowered his eyelids, his expression becoming even more thoughtful, and said, ”However, a house full of kids is too many. If they all inherit your personality, even if your husband has the desire, I might not have the ability to manage them all.”

”...” Unable to manage if they inherit hers???

What does that mean...

Is he indirectly saying she’s a troublemaker...
