Yang Qingyin was quite surprised that Luo Ziling would make such a guess.

However, she did not immediately deny or acknowledge it but tilted her head and asked, “Why would you guess that?”

“There’s no reason, I just suddenly thought of it,” Seeing Yang Qingyin’s reaction, Luo Ziling became even more certain of his guess and immediately asked, “Tell me, is today your birthday?”

“Twenty-one years ago today, I came into this world.” Yang Qingyin stopped teasing and happily revealed the answer with a smile, “Congratulations, you guessed right!”

“Am I not very smart? Hehe, young master is really smart,” Luo Ziling praised himself and without waiting for Yang Qingyin’s response, he quickly continued, “Then tonight’s seafood dinner should be my treat!”

“We agreed that I would treat you today, you can’t fight with me over it,” Yang Qingyin spoke with a sweet smile, her lips slightly upturned, “Next year on this day, just treat me to a big meal!”

“Okay, then next year on September 19, I’ll treat you to a big meal,” Luo Ziling didn’t continue to argue with Yang Qingyin and readily agreed. After agreeing, he said, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? I didn’t even prepare a gift.”

“You barely had time!” Yang Qingyin scoffed disdainfully, “I thought you had to treat people today and hoped we could have the big meal another day!”

“That’s not the case,” Luo Ziling quickly shook his head, “Having dinner with you is the most important thing today, so no matter what, I wouldn’t break our appointment!”

Although he said this, Luo Ziling was still quite relieved that he was able to make it to Yang Qingyin’s invitation on time today, otherwise, he would have regretted it for the rest of his life.

He truly hadn’t expected that today would be Yang Qingyin’s birthday.

Isn’t it said that college students have quite flamboyant birthdays, inviting lots of classmates to celebrate, making it quite a lively affair?

But thinking of Yang Qingyin’s reputation and her reserve, Luo Ziling could understand.

The girl in front of him definitely wasn’t like others who liked their birthdays to be too boisterous. He felt exceptionally proud and happy in his heart, the goddess’s birthday, and she only invited him, to treat him to a seafood feast no less—he would remember today for the rest of his life.

After thinking for a bit, he said, “The first time I’m with you for your birthday, I must give you a gift. Let’s go shopping together after we finish dinner and pick something out for you!”

“I don’t want to!” Yang Qingyin refused without hesitation, “It’s so boring for me to pick out a gift with you behind my back!”

Looking at Yang Qingyin acting spoiled, Luo Ziling didn’t insist any further, as he already had an idea in mind.

At that moment, Yang Qingyin’s phone rang. After looking at the caller ID, she hesitated for a moment, but still answered it in front of Luo Ziling.

“Hello, Mom!” Yang Qingyin answered the call and immediately put away her smile, looking very serious.

Hearing that it was Yang Qingyin’s mother calling, Luo Ziling immediately pricked up his ears to eavesdrop.

Because he was sitting across from Yang Qingyin, Luo Ziling couldn’t hear clearly what was being said on the other end of the phone, only catching a faint female voice.

He found it quite regrettable.

After a few noncommittal sounds during the conversation, Yang Qingyin then said to her mother on the phone with a smile, “Mom, I’m having dinner with a classmate!”

Her mother said something on the other end of the phone, which made Yang Qingyin blush instantly. She quickly replied, “Mom, don’t talk nonsense, it’s my birthday today, can’t I celebrate it a bit with my classmates? Okay, I won’t talk more, I’m about to have a feast. I’ll come home in a couple of days, that’s all for now. Thank you for remembering my birthday, I’ll come home to see the gift you sent me, goodbye!”

With that, she hung up the call.

After hanging up, seeing Luo Ziling looking at her with an odd expression, Yang Qingyin couldn’t help feeling a bit annoyed and embarrassed.

“What are you looking at,” she said with her face reddening slightly and with a hint of chastising, “It’s my birthday, my mom called to wish me well, what’s so strange about that!”

“There’s nothing strange about that, but your face is all red,” Luo Ziling pointed out Yang Qingyin’s peculiarity “right on the mark” and then chuckled, “Your mom won’t think you’re having dinner with your boyfriend, will she?”

Luo Ziling’s blunt joke embarrassed Yang Qingyin to the point of blushing furiously.

“Junior, if you keep talking nonsense, I’ll ignore you,” she said, casting a sideways glance at Luo Ziling before bursting into giggles, “Did you hear what my mom said?”

“No,” Luo Ziling honestly admitted, “I was just guessing. I didn’t expect it to be true!”

At that moment, the private room door sounded, and the waiter brought in the dishes.

The previously teasing Yang Qingyin immediately reigned in her smile and sat up properly.

The dishes they had ordered were served quickly, filling the table.

“This is quite extravagant,” Luo Ziling joked as he looked at the table full of seafood feast, “With your petite frame, you definitely can’t eat all this. Later, I must embody the spirit of Comrade Lei Feng and help you solve all these problems, carrying out the ‘Clean Plate Campaign’ to the end.”

“Those words don’t sound like they come from a boy who hasn’t experienced much, hailing from a small village in the Northwest,” Yang Qingyin quickly retorted when Luo Ziling commented on her petite frame, “Are you pretending on purpose?”

“I’m just a quick learner,” Luo Ziling lifted his inexpensive Redmi smartphone, “This gadget is really great, it can go online. I can see a lot of things, and some internet slang I’ve learned after I came here to study.”

“If I’m not mistaken, this is your first phone?” Yang Qingyin curiously asked.

Luo Ziling immediately felt embarrassed and shyly admitted, “You’re making fun of me!”

Yang Qingyin just smiled and didn’t say anything, but gestured for Luo Ziling to start eating quickly.

In the midst of their conversation, Luo Ziling considerately served Yang Qingyin a bowl of sea cucumber soup and poured her half a glass of red wine. Then he filled his own glass, raised a toast to Yang Qingyin, “Here’s to you. I don’t know what blessings to say, so I’ll just wish to see your smile often. Your smile is really beautiful.”

“Thank you for your blessing. If you want to see me smile, then make me happy often!” Yang Qingyin smiled widely.

Luo Ziling emptied his glass in one gulp and then grinned at Yang Qingyin, “After dinner, I’ll take you somewhere fun!”

“Take me somewhere fun?” Yang Qingyin also drank her glass of wine, then tilted her head to look at Luo Ziling, “You’re going to make me walk until I drop again?”

Luo Ziling thought for a moment and said, “How about Tianan Gate Square?”

“Have you been there before?” Yang Qingyin asked curiously.

“No,” Luo Ziling shook his head, “Other than going to the Summer Palace and Old Summer Palace with you, I haven’t been anywhere else!”

“Alright, after dinner, we’ll go to the square!” Yang Qingyin agreed cheerfully, “Today, your senior sister will be your free tour guide!”

“I think I’ll be so excited tonight that I won’t be able to sleep!”

“If you can’t sleep, just run a few laps around the track!”

“Will you join me?”

“Senior sister needs her beauty sleep, I won’t have time to accompany you!”

“Fine! If I can’t sleep, I’ll just count sheep instead!”
