Chapter 718: Birthday Party
Next Saturday is grandpa's birthday?
Well, to be honest, after they met, she still didn't know when grandpa's birthday was, and she didn't ask.
"Since your grandma left, he hasn't celebrated his birthday for more than 40 years. This year, why don't you celebrate it for him?" Shi Le said this indifferently. He met Zuo Yi, got to know him, and then shared hardships. In the end, the brothers turned against each other because of Shen Ruoxi. For decades, no one was willing to bow their heads first.
But Shi Le knew very well that Shen Ruoxi only loved Zuo Yi.
And his love for Shen Ruoxi, although deep, could not compare to Zuo Yi's unswerving love until death.
For more than 40 years, he knew that Zuo Yi had been very lonely.
Since Shen Ruoxi left, he rarely returned to the so-called home, so over the years, whether it was the New Year or his birthday, he was alone, and did not celebrate his birthday in any way.
"Shen Ruoxi, you must be by my side every year on my birthday from now on!"
"Why?"
"Because you are mine."
"What's the benefit?"
"The benefit is that I will celebrate your birthday from now on!"
"Deal!"
Junyuan.
Zuo Yi stood by the window, recalling the conversation he had with Shen Ruoxi. Every year when his birthday was approaching, he would always think of Shen Ruoxi unconsciously.
Time is the cruelest thing. It can destroy everything. No matter how you loved each other at that time, you could not resist the cruel reality in the end. Was it because he could not give her any sense of security, or she did not trust herself enough and chose to leave him in that way.
Just thinking about it, the phone in the living room rang.
Butler Yu Bo picked up the phone and was very happy after hearing Zuo Weiyi's voice. Then he said to Zuo Yi who was standing by the window sill, "Master, it's the eldest lady calling."
Hearing the voice, Zuo Yi turned his head and hurried over when he heard that it was his granddaughter calling.
"Hello? Weiyi!"
"Grandpa." Zuo Weiyi called affectionately on the phone.
"How are my two great-grandchildren? Are they healthy?"
"They are fine!" Zuo Yi replied with a smile, his hand unconsciously touching his bulging belly.
"Grandpa, you are 70 this year, right?"
Being suddenly asked about his age, Zuo Yi couldn't help but be stunned, "What's wrong? Although Grandpa is 70, he is still in good health!"
"Why don't we celebrate a big birthday this year!"
"...Celebrate a birthday?"
"Yes, for you." After listening to what Shi Le said to him, Zuo Yi was more determined to celebrate his grandfather's birthday.
A person has not celebrated his birthday for more than 40 years. The loneliness in this can be imagined.
Zuo Yi was stunned again. Without Shen Ruoxi, his birthday seemed to have lost all meaning.
"No, Grandpa is used to being alone."
"It's decided! I'll decide the time. If you don't like the place in your Junyuan, then I'll let Shi Yuting choose it in the hotel. Okay, bye!" Afraid that he would refuse, Zuo Yi couldn't wait to hang up the phone.
Then, she called Shi Yuting again. After all, she was pregnant and could not take care of everything herself, so she had to leave it to Shi Yuting.
Grandpa had been alone for so many years, so she had to hold a grand ceremony to let him know that even if grandma was gone, there were still many people who cared about him.
She originally wanted to celebrate with the whole family, but Shi Le rejected it, saying that since it was going to be held, it should be held in a grand manner.
