Chapter 42

Chai Yuluo slept very restlessly throughout the night, and it was not until dawn that she felt her eyelids sink, and she fell asleep until noon, even delaying her tutoring time with Li Haoyue.

The season is getting closer and closer to midsummer, and the frequency of the sun is also increasing.

Chai Yuluo saw that the sunlight outside the window had penetrated into the room, and hurriedly got up and changed her clothes.As soon as he went out, he saw Hou's servant by the door saying respectfully: "Miss Chai, you are awake."

She nodded, a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry to keep the young master waiting for a long time, I will go to teach him right now."

The servant smiled politely, and continued: "The commander took the young master out to practice equestrianism this morning, and specially asked Miss Chai to rest at ease, and don't worry about going to class."

She breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the room, and a servant brought the lunch over.After eating some, she took a book and went to rest on a garden bench to pass the time.

In March of Yangchun, flowers are in full bloom.

The garden is filled with fragrance of flowers, and bees and butterflies are dancing together, competing for the most beautiful flower among all kinds of flowers.

Chai Yuluo took a very touching English version of fairy tales, and read it all afternoon with concentration. When she closed the book and was about to get up, she saw Huangfuchu standing beside her .

Chai Yuluo blushed inexplicably, and greeted: "Commander, good afternoon."

Huangfu Chu nodded, and asked lightly: "Miss Chai, did you rest well last night?"

She said "en" and said: "I have to thank the commander for what happened yesterday, and Yuluo will definitely repay the commander for his kindness."

Huangfu curled his lips at first, thought for a while and said, "Now Huangfu has something to trouble Miss Chai."

Upon hearing this, Chai Yuluo met his gaze, and replied seriously: "It's okay to say, Commander."

It turns out that Li Haoyue's birthday will be in a few days, but Huangfu will lead his army to fight against Huangshi's army on the seventh day of the next lunar month, and he can't spare time to make arrangements for him, so he asked Chai Yuluo to help with the arrangement.After all, this is Li Haoyue's first birthday as his adopted son. Huangfuchu's original intention was to hold a big event, inviting all the dignitaries of the city to participate, and let him have a grand birthday.

After Chai Yuluo listened carefully to his thoughts, he was silent for a moment before saying: "This is not a difficult task. Yuluo agreed to the Commander. But in my opinion, the Commander's such a big deal is not just to make the young master happy. .”

Huangfu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "What do you mean by that?"

She thought about it, not sure if she should share her guess.Huangfuchu continued: "Miss Chai has something to say, don't worry about it."

She glanced at Huangfu Chu, and said calmly: "The commander's move is to strengthen the morale of the army before the war. The young master is the orphan of the commander's deputy general, but the commander regards it as his own, so he will hold a birthday party to tell all the soldiers The Commander is a man of great affection and righteousness."

Huangfu Chu had a smile on his face, but when Chai Yuluo finished talking, seeing him silent, he felt very uneasy.

Not far away, the housekeeper came to the garden and saw the two respectfully said: "Commander, Miss Chai, dinner is ready."

He nodded, and suddenly said to Chai Yuluo: "The birthday party is for Miss Chai to worry about, let's go eat now."

Chai Yuluo has been extremely busy these past few days. First, he has to teach Li Haoyue, and second, he has to arrange for his upcoming birthday.The ostentation that Huangfu Chu wanted was much bigger than what she originally imagined.He was worried that Chai Yuluo couldn't figure it out by himself, so he specially sent a housekeeper to help.

At that time, it took her 4 hours just to write the invitation letter, not to mention the rest of the steps.

Three days later, everything was finally prepared, and the venue was chosen at the most famous Fengyulou private venue in Yancheng. A total of 100 tables were prepared, and as many as 1000 people were invited.

After dinner, Chai Yuluo reported all the situation to Huangfuchu. He was very satisfied, and suddenly called the guards to take a beautifully wrapped gift box and handed it to Chai Yuluo, saying, "I'm sorry to trouble Miss Chai recently, a small gift to express my heart." .”

She didn't refuse, took it over, opened the box, took a look, and closed it again instantly.She widened her eyes, feeling a little confused for a while, handed the box back to Huangfuchu, and said, "I accept the commander's wishes, but Yuluo doesn't need this item."

Huangfu Chu smiled, and said: "Miss Chai, don't be afraid. This pistol is short and easy to store and put away. It's for your self-defense. After all, the city of Yan is about to go to war, so it's better for Miss Chai to accept it."

In fact, Chai Yuluo is not afraid. When she was in the United States, some of her classmates used to carry guns for self-defense.It's just that she felt that even if she accepted it, she wouldn't have the courage to use it to hurt others.

She shook her head and politely refused: "Commander, please forgive me for not being able to accept Yuluo."

So Huangfu Chu didn't force it anymore, and after letting the guards put it away, he said with a smile: "Forget it, if Miss Chai doesn't like it, let it go."

Within two days, Li Haoyue's birthday finally arrived.

There were no empty seats in the Fengyu Tower that day, after all, no one dared to be bold enough not to attend the invitation of Commander Yancheng.The gifts from the guests almost filled the entire room.Li Haoyue specially wore a custom-made red children's suit, which looked extraordinarily energetic.He had probably never seen such a big scene before, and he felt stage fright for a while, sticking to Chai Yuluo and refusing to leave.

Just before the banquet started, Huangfu Chu arrived with a group of generals.

Seeing him, Li Haoyue finally let go of Chai Yuluo's hand, rushed over and said with a smile, "Commander's father."

Everyone laughed when they heard the words, and when they saw Huangfu Chu's always serious face, they also smiled very softly, and there were discussions one after another.He looked up and scanned the audience, and finally led Li Haoyue to the main stage, and said, "Thank you for coming to the dog's birthday party today. It is a great honor for Huangfu. Please enjoy yourself."

After speaking, he led Li Haoyue straight to Chai Yuluo, bowed his head and whispered something to Li Haoyue.Li Haoyue took Huangfuchu with his left hand and Chai Yuluo with his right, and they sat at the chairman's table together, and the banquet officially started.

Chai Yuluo was taken aback, feeling the eyes of her surroundings cast on her back instantly. She didn't know what Huangfuchu wanted to do, but she couldn't question her face to face at this moment.

Today's birthday party went very well, and after everyone had left at night, Huangfuchu took Li Haoyue and Chai Yuluo into the car and returned to the Commander's Mansion.

Li Haoyue was also tired now, and fell asleep leaning against Huangfu Chu in the car.The butler came out and carefully carried him back to the room. Huangfuchu was walking behind when he was suddenly stopped by Chai Yuluo.

When he turned around, he still looked at her with a smile that was not a smile. Her heart was pounding, and suddenly she couldn't say a word that she had been brewing for a long time, so she smiled awkwardly: "The commander should rest earlier, and I will return to you too." room."
