ABLO Chapter 12

Ruan Mian’s forehead was dotted with sweat, his cheeks slightly flushed, and he seemed slightly out of breath when speaking, clearly having rushed over from somewhere.

The cake in his hand was far smaller than the six-layer cake at Lu Yang’s birthday party, but the candle on it was extremely bright, as if it could illuminate the darkness in Lu Yang’s eyes.

Ruan Mian looked at Lu Yang and sang a birthday song by himself. His clear voice was cheerful and beautiful in the night, clearing away the haze in Lu Yang’s heart bit by bit.

“Happy birthday to you…Happy birthday to you…Happy birthday to Baby Lu…”

When Lu Yang heard ‘Baby Lu’, he finally couldn’t help but burst out laughing. He walked over, opened all the windows, and looked down at Ruan Mian.

Ruan Mian raised his eyes, his eyes turning into two beautiful little crescents, and said in a soft voice: “Baby Lu, make a wish quickly.”

Lu Yang looked at his sparkling eyes, was silent for a while, and suddenly put his hands together devoutly and closed his eyes.

Ruan Mian didn’t know what Lu Yang wished, but he could see that Lu Yang was more serious than ever when he made the wish.

Ruan Mian couldn’t help but be curious. Baby Lu, who always had everything, would also have something he wanted persistently?

But he didn’t ask, because the wish would not work if he said it out loud. He must protect Lu Yang’s wish, so that Lu Yang’s wish could come true.

After Lu Yang made his wish, he opened his eyes and blew out the candles with Ruan Mian.

Ruan Mian took out the photo album from his backpack, held it in front of Lu Yang, and handed it to him, saying happily: “Birthday present!”

Lu Yang curved his lips, took the photo album, untied the bow on it, and wanted to open it directly to see it.

Ruan Mian suddenly felt a little embarrassed and quickly held his hand, “Wait until I leave, then you can look at it.”

Lu Yang knew that he was shy, so he had to let him go. He walked to the desk and carefully placed the photo album on the desk, with a piece of real silk velvet cloth underneath.

Ruan Mian didn’t notice Lu Yang’s little move. He lowered his head and took the blown-out candle off the cake. He couldn’t help swallowing his saliva lightly. He leaned half his body against the windowsill and swung his legs in a good mood.

When Lu Yang came back, he lifted the cake with both hands and said happily: “Baby Lu, let’s eat the cake quickly.”

Lu Yang looked at Ruan Mian’s round eyes and couldn’t help showing his first smile of the day, “Yeah.”

He picked up the knife and fork, divided the cake into two pieces, put one of them in front of Ruan Mian, and whispered: “Why didn’t you come in through the door?”

“It’s too late; I don’t want to disturb Grandpa and Auntie.”

Ruan Mian picked up the fork, put the big cherry on his slice of cake on Lu Yang’s slice, looked at the time, and said anxiously: “Eat quickly, it’s almost twelve o’clock.”

Lu Yang obediently picked up a fork, speared a piece of cake, and put it into his mouth. He chewed lightly; the cake seemed to be leftover from sales and wasn’t as fresh, yet Lu Yang felt it was better than all the cakes everyone had given him tonight.

Ruan Mian stared at Lu Yang intently as he ate the first bite of cake. The clock rang, and it was exactly twelve o’clock.

He couldn’t help but purse his lips and smile. It was great that he was by Lu Yang’s side again, spending a birthday with him.

“Baby Lu, you are sixteen years old!”

“Yeah.” Lu Yang was eating cake in his mouth. He looked up and saw Ruan Mian staring at him intently. He smiled unconsciously, “What are you doing lying on the windowsill? Come in quickly.”

“No, I should go back soon.” Ruan Mian shook his head and watched Lu Yang eat the cake. He couldn’t wait to pick up the spoon and lower his head to eat a big bite of cake.

He didn’t eat all day today. He ran several streets to buy a cake just now. Finally, he bought a small cake before the cake shop closed.

Ruan Mian lowered his eyes and looked at the small cake. He couldn’t help feeling a little guilty, “Baby Lu, I will definitely give you a big cake next year, a very beautiful big cake.”

Lu Yang didn’t care much about the cake. What he cared about from beginning to end was who accompanied him to eat the cake. As long as Ruan Mian was there, he thought any cake was delicious.

Lu Yang touched his(RM) ears, which were a little cold, “It’s so late now, you should stay here tonight and don’t go back.” Anyway, Ruan Mian often stayed at Lu’s house, Ruan Donglin and Wu Yongjuan didn’t care about him at all, so it didn’t matter if he didn’t go back for a day.

Ruan Mian took another big bite of cake and put it in his mouth, chewed it for a few times and said, “I won’t stay here, so that my second aunt won’t see me when she goes home tomorrow and finds an excuse to scold me again.”

If Wu Yongjuan knew that he and Ren Ge were just looking for an excuse to leave, she would probably get angry again. If he didn’t go back, Wu Yongjuan would definitely take advantage of the situation.

Lu Yang nodded, looked at him eating cake in big mouthfuls, frowned slightly, and asked, “Didn’t you have dinner?”

Ruan Mian’s chewing slowed down a bit. It’s not that he didn’t have dinner, but he didn’t eat for a day.

He didn’t want to make Lu Yang worry, so he didn’t look up, but whispered: “Ate.”

Lu Yang looked at him silently for a while, and after seeing him finish the cake in three or two bites, he licked his lips with satisfaction, and his brows couldn’t help but frown deeper.

Lu Yang didn’t expose him, but he turned around and took the carrot cake that was on the table for Ruan Mian and put it in front of him.

Ruan Mian saw the carrot cake in his hand, and his eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: “Is it for me?”

Lu Yang tapped him on the head lightly, “Carrots like these, who else could they be for if not you?”

“That’s right.” Ruan Mian couldn’t help but smile, and said a little silly: “I thought the carrot cake had been eaten by everyone.”

No one in the Lu family likes to eat carrots, only he(RM) likes to eat them.

He picked up the spoon, carefully scooped a spoonful of carrot cake into his mouth, chewed it twice, and squinted his eyes, “It’s delicious, full of carrot flavor, soft and sweet.”

“As long as you like it, my mother has learned how to make it from the chef today. She said if you like it, she will make it for you in the future.”

Lu Yang thought of hiding the carrot cake today and being caught by his mother, and he couldn’t help feeling a little embarrassed.

“Auntie is so nice.” Ruan Mian couldn’t help but have stars in his eyes. If Ning Mixiang hadn’t fallen asleep, he would have run upstairs to thank her in person.

Lu Yang raised his eyebrows in dissatisfaction, “Only my mother is good? Am I not good?”

Ruan Mian couldn’t help feeling guilty when he thought about how he almost couldn’t come to celebrate Lu Yang’s birthday today, so he was very sweet today. When he heard Lu Yang’s words, he immediately said, “Baby Lu is also good. Baby Lu is the best baby in the world.”

Lu Yang smiled and asked in a low voice, “How was the result of the blind date today? Why is your phone turned off?”

“The phone ran out of battery.” Ruan Mian’s stomach was a little full, and he slowed down the speed of eating carrot cake a little, wanting to savor the taste of carrot cake carefully, “As for the blind date…”

Ruan Mian couldn’t help but think of what Ren Ge said just now. Ren Ge was willing to help him, which was undoubtedly the best choice so far.

But when Ruan Mian thought about getting engaged to Ren Ge, he felt a little uncomfortable. Ren Ge was very good, but as a partner, it seemed that something was missing.

Ruan Mian couldn’t help but feel a little worried. With Lu Yang’s attitude towards Ren Ge, if Lu Yang knew that Ren Ge was going to get engaged to him, and he had to move to Ren Ge’s house, Ruan Mian always felt that Lu Yang would lose his temper.

Lu Yang saw Ruan Mian biting the spoon for a long time without moving, as if thinking about something, and couldn’t help but reach out and pinch his soft face, “Don’t hide it from me.”

Ruan Mian looked up at him and had to honestly repeat what Ren Ge said to him today.

As he expected, Lu Yang frowned after listening to him, and said without thinking: “Reject him.”

Ruan Mian nodded without much hesitation. It seemed that it was indeed not good for him to get engaged to Ren Ge, although he couldn’t tell exactly what was wrong.

Lu Yang stroked his hair a little irritably, and felt a little more comfortable when he saw Ruan Mian nod.

Ren Ge actually wanted to take Tutu away again while he was not paying attention. It was really abominable.

Whenever he recalled the time when Ruan Mian lived in Ren Ge’s house, he felt depressed and wanted to hug Ruan Mian, rub him hard, and bully him until he cried.

Ruan Mian noticed Lu Yang’s mood change, looked up at him, and suddenly thought of something. His nose moved unconsciously, and he said in surprise: “Baby Lu, why can’t I smell your pheromones today?”

When Lu Yang was with him, he usually didn’t deliberately hide his pheromones. He remembered that a few days ago, the smell of Lu Yang’s pheromones was particularly strong, just like a flower blooming to its fullest, stretching its last fragrance, strong and warm.

Lu Yang’s pheromones today were very light, tasteless, and only felt cool and refreshing.

Baby Lu reached out and touched the back of his neck, “I don’t know, my pheromones have been weird today.”

In fact, not only are his pheromones weird, but his mood is also a little weird. He has been restless recently, as if something has been hidden in his body and is about to burst out, eager to break through, eager to break free from the shackles, so they are tearing each other apart in his body, making him irritable.

“Go to the hospital for a checkup when you have time.” Ruan Mian looked at him with some worry.

“Okay.” Lu Yang agreed, but he didn’t take the change of pheromones too seriously in his heart. He hated being controlled by pheromones the most, so he didn’t pay as much attention to the change of pheromones as ordinary Omegas do.

Ruan Mian understood him and knew that he would not easily check his pheromones, so he planned to come to Lu’s house tomorrow to tell Ning Mixiang so that Ning Mixiang would take Lu Yang to the hospital when she had time.

Ruan Mian didn’t mention the pheromone anymore, but puffed up his cheeks and said, “If my second aunt knew that I wasn’t together with Brother Ren, she would probably continue to arrange blind dates for me. I don’t know how many relatives she has.”

Lu Yang helped him wipe off the carrot cake crumbs that were on his lips, squinted his eyes and said, “I have thought of a way to deal with your second uncle and your second aunt. Don’t worry, Grandpa will help me. You just need to delay them for a few more days.”

Ruan Mian blinked in surprise, “What method?”

Lu Yang didn’t say much, just said, “Your second uncle has been doing business in recent years. Don’t worry about it. Let me handle it.”

Ruan Mian nodded obediently. Although he didn’t understand these things, Lu Yang was always smart. Lu Yang said he would handle it, so Ruan Mian believed him.
