Chapter 486: My Little Cousin, Happy Birthday

Translator: Henyee  Editor: Henyee

Although Tang Xi was wondering whose birthday it was today, she didn’t ask but stood up and greeted the Yang Family people. “Hello, Grandfather. Hello, Uncle. Hello, Aunt. Hello, First Cousin, Second Cousin, Third Cousin, Fourth Cousin, and Fifth Cousin.”

Yang Mukun felt a bit embarrassed being greeted by her so formally. He smiled and handed her the birthday present he prepared for her. “Here you are, my little cousin. This is my present to you. I carved it with my own hands. Don’t tell me you don’t like it.”

Tang Xi blinked and looked around at the people. Seeing everyone looking at her with a smile, she pointed at her nose in surprise. “My birthday?”

Yang Jingxian guessed that Tang Xi was too busy to remember her own birthday. She came up to her, put her arms around Tang Xi’s shoulder and winked at her. “Today is your birthday. Did you forget it?”

The others all nodded at Tang Xi. Lin Ru also came up to Tang Xi, took her hand and sighed. “Sorry, it’s the first time Mom is celebrating your birthday with you.”

When she thought of how she doted on her enemy’s daughter like her own, but let her own daughter suffer in the deep mountains in the past, she was overwhelmed by guilt.

Tang Xi saw the guilt in Lin Ru’s eyes. She shook her head with a smile. “Perhaps I’ve been too busy these days, so much so that I forgot about my own birthday.”

“My little cousin, happy birthday.” Yang Muhua handed a small box to Tang Xi. “This is a small gift for you.”

Tang Xi happily put away the box. “Thank you, First Cousin.”

Yang Muhua smiled at her. At this time, Yang Mufeng walked over to them. He had arrived here straight from work, so he was still in his military uniform. He handed Tang Xi a medal. “Sorry, I don’t have time to prepare gifts for you. I got this medal from my latest mission. I’d like to give it to you as a present if you don’t mind.”

Tang Xi felt so flattered by this and received it happily. “Thank you, Second Cousin.”

Yang Mufeng laughed. “We’re one family. Don’t hesitate to call me if you need any help in the future.”

Tang Xi nodded with a smile. Now it was Yang Muxing’s turn. He took out a pearl from his pocket. “I found this pearl in the sea when I was diving. Now I’d like to give it to you as a gift. Happy birthday, little cousin.”

Tang Xi was moved. “Thanks, Third Cousin!”

Yang Muxing smiled shyly. “You’re welcome. I’m glad you like it.”

Tang Xi was moved indeed. They all carefully prepared birthday presents for her. That was so sweet of them! She hadn’t received any present as special as these ones before. When she was still Tang Xi, she would just receive luxuries. The luxury brands would give her their products as birthday presents and her business partners would also send her luxuries that they thought she liked…

But she had never received any present as meaningful as these ones.

Yang Muqing was glad that Tang Xi liked their presents. She looked at Tang Xi with a smile. “Well, the clothes I’m wearing is the best birthday present for little cousin, isn’t it?”

Tang Xi looked at Yang Muqing and found that she was wearing the clothes of The Queen. She nodded, smiling. “Yes, exactly.”

Yang Muqing smiled and took out a box from her handbag. “Haha, I’m just kidding. This is the present I prepared for you, a beautiful dress. Little cousin, happy reincarnation.”

Tang Xi paused and Yang Muqing smiled, asking, “Don’t you think what I said is right?”

Everyone else was stunned. Xiao Jing who reacted the most quickly said all smiles. “Yes, Muqing is right. The former ugly duckling has died. Now it’s a brand-new Xiao Rou. But you used the wrong word. It should be happy rebirth, not happy reincarnation.”

“Okay, my bad.” Yang Muqing looked at Tang Xi and smiled. “Anyway, little cousin, happy birthday.”

“Thank you, Fifth Cousin.”

“Don’t call me that. It’s weird. Just call me Sister Muqing.” Yang Muqing blinked at Tang Xi.

Tang Xi nodded with a smile. If it hadn’t for Yang Muqing’s reminding, she would have forgotten to make sure which day her birthday was. Was it the day that she reincarnated, Xiao Rou’s birthday or Tang Xi’s?

Oh, it was hard to choose. She would ask Ah Liang about this matter tonight.

“Okay, let’s have dinner first.” Yang Jingxian said. “The food is getting cold.”

Soon the servants served another table of dishes. The young people sat at one table and the older generations sat at another. Tang Xi was about to put the presents into her room when Yang Mukun stopped her. “Why the hurry? Just put the presents here. My father and mother haven’t given you their presents. Just wait for a while.”

Tang Xi looked at him in surprise and asked him with a lowered voice, “Did Uncle and Aunt prepare me birthday presents?”

“Not only them. As far as I know, even my grandfather has prepared you a present. They will probably give their present to you after dinner.” Yang Mukun blinked at her.

Tang Xi looked at Yang Mukun speechlessly. “Okay… I just think I didn’t do anything to deserve this.”

“But you look so happy receiving our presents. Don’t you like them?” Yang Mukun mocked. “Little cousin, you don’t have to be so polite in front of me. I know what you’re thinking of.”

“Everyone likes receiving presents, alright?” Tang Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at Yang Mukun. “But Fourth Cousin, why did you make a statue for me? You don’t seem to be good at carving.”

Hearing her words, Yang Muqing burst into laughter. She could tell that Tang Xi liked that statue very much although she laughed at Yang Mukun’s carving skill.

Yang Mukun knew she was joking, so he sighed. “My dear little cousin, since my family knows that Yao is a lieutenant colonel, I’m the most despised one in my family. The only thing I’m slightly better at than ordinary people is carving! If you don’t like this statue, may I give myself to you as a present?”

The corner of Tang Xi’s eyes twitched. She didn’t expect Yang Mukun could be so shameless. “No, thanks.”
