Chapter 1473: Pinned Against the Bed, Three Days and Nights

“Mama Qin, happy birthday!” While Qin Yirou’s eyes were teary, Yun Zhu, Duan Li and Duan Ya dashed down from upstairs respectively, each holding a balloon with happy birthday stuck on it.

With Yun Zhu leading the group, the three of them thrusted the balloons with scrawny scribbles on them into Qin Yirou’s hand. The handwriting stuck on the balloon said “Happy Birthday”.

“Mama Qin, the presents are in the balloons, hehe! I’m the one who thought of this gifting method!” Yun Zhu shook his head as he, Duan Li and Duan Ya passed their presents that were in the balloons to Qin Yirou.

The three of them had been cooped up in their room since morning, refusing to come downstairs for lunch even. Qin Yirou found it strange as the trio had usually been very good kids. Why were they acting up today and refusing to have lunch no matter how she called for them?

The reality was that the three of them had been preparing her presents since the morning for the surprise now.

“Thank you, my babies.” Qin Yirou nearly teared up from how moved she was as she bent down to kiss each of the children’s forehead and gripped the presents tightly.

“Mom, this is from me.” Yun Jian passed her securely wrapped present to Qin Yirou as well. She had never picked out a present herself and wrapped it so nicely to gift it to someone before. Of course, that excluded the few clothing items that she had bought Si Yi before.

Yun Jian glanced at Si Yi who was coming downstairs. He wore a top that was so faded from washes and was close to wearing out. She had bought him the top. Since he had worn it, he rotated it with another top that she had bought him too and had never changed into other articles of clothing except for these two.

Yun Jian was looking at the clothes Si Yi wore and not at the young man, but Si Yi who turned to look over wore a conspiring smirk when he saw Yun Jian leaning over to where he was and went to her.

Even when he was wearing cheap clothes that was almost faded, it did nothing to mute his handsomeness.

Si Yi came over and held Yun Jian’s hand, leading her to the dining table.

When everyone got seated, dinner began. The meal was extremely delicious with Ge Junjian cooking. He was a military man but he had things he was good in—cooking being one of those, so the dishes he made were scrumptious.

There were fish, shrimps and crabs for dinner; it was a lavish spread.

When all the dishes were cleaned up, the family spent time watching the television in the living room together.

Yun Jian had just come home from buying some snacks with Qin Yirou. Just as she sat on the empty spot on the couch, she saw Si Yi sitting across her. In the past, Si Yi would have moved himself to Yun Jian when he saw that she was sitting opposite of him, but that was not the case today.

While she mulled over it, Yun Zhu ran over and stuffed a small piece of paper in Yun Jian’s hand, telling her mysteriously, “Jiejie, Si Yi-gege gave this to you!”

He ran over to Si Yi in exchange for three lollipops and enjoyed the candies with Duan Li and Duan Ya.

Yun Jian felt like her younger brother had just sold her out. Pressing her lips together, she did not give it much thought as she opened the piece of note Si Yi had asked Yun Zhu to pass to her.

“Xiao Jian, what note are you all passing around? Let me have a look,” Qin Yirou asked with a smile when she spotted the note in Yun Jian’s hand.

“It’s nothing, mom,” Yun Jian answered as she unfolded the paper.

When she saw Si Yi’s handwriting on the paper, though, she flushed scarlet. There was only one line written on it—”Xiao Jian, one day, I’ll pin you against the bed and make sure you can’t get down for three days and three nights.”
