Nie Heng finally quieted down after being scolded by Ruan Qi and continued to quietly eat peaches.
After finishing the seventh peach, he burped painfully and said, "I really can't eat anymore. Tomorrow, I'll take a box to the store and share it with everyone. Senior sister, how are the preparations for your brother-in-law's birthday surprise coming along? Only three days left, don't drop the ball at the last minute."
Ruan Qi took a bite of peach flesh, glanced at him, and said confidently, "Don't worry. Everything is ready; I definitely won't drop the ball. I'll make sure Jiujiu has the most unforgettable thirtieth birthday!"
...
Swish—another page of the calendar turned.
Only less than four hours remain until his birthday.
Xi Jiu looked at the 'April 7th' on the Perpetual Calendar, and for the first time, felt a sense of loss on such a happy day.
Ruan Qi might have really forgotten his birthday.
