Chapter 416 : Birthday and Playing Cards



As Xiaoyun sat down on the sofa, Wuli and Shuli waved before turning their attention back to the drama show on the TV.

"Where\'s Nami?" Xiaoyun curiously asked as he noticed her missing.

"She headed to the administrative building earlier to talk with Yuqi... If I remember correctly, she said she wanted to get a job again."

"I see..."

Slowly, Xiaoyun began relaxing on the sofa as he leaned back on it, eventually falling asleep.

Shuli turned off the TV as they noticed him sleeping on the sofa, with his face looking exhausted.

"We didn\'t force him to have sex until midnight for the past few days, right?"

Wuli asked as she looked a little concerned about how easily he had fallen asleep on the sofa.

"Yeah, none of us went to his bed for the past few days since that whole living room incident..."

Shuli replied, and all three of their faces blushed a little. They were still a little ashamed of being caught by the three living in the guest room.

"Speaking of date, it\'s Nami\'s birthday in a few days, right?" Wuli suddenly brought it up as the three brought the babies into the kitchen.

"Oh, I almost forgot about that... We should probably prepare something for her."

As Leyan started to think about what to do for Nami\'s birthday, a question suddenly appeared in her mind.

"Wuli, Shuli, do you know what Tianci\'s and Lily\'s birthday is?"

Both of them looked at each other for a second before Shuli spoke up.

"I\'m pretty sure Lily\'s birthday is actually just three days before your birthday."

"So July 23rd?"

"Yeah."

As Leyan marked Lily\'s birthdays on the calendar, she still didn\'t have Tianci\'s or the other two\'s birthdays.

"I think I saw Tianci\'s birthday on her ID before. It\'s like on February 29th," Wuli replied.

"29th? That\'s... A leap year?"

Leyan murmured as she noticed there were only 28 days in the calendar, rendering it impossible to note.

"Just put it as March 1st. It would make more sense." Shuli replied.

"Great, now I just need Kate and Anna. Do you guys know their birthdays?" Leyan asked as she noted it on the side.

"Anna is July 3rd, and Kate is September 10th," Shuli replied instantly without any hesitation.

After writing it down, she finally had a list of everyone\'s birthdays on the calendar.

"Great... Now I just need to mark the kid\'s birthday, and everything is all set."

Leyan added Yongyi, Lianrong, and Qiaolan\'s birthdays, which were just a day apart from each other, next to Nami\'s April 10th.

Meanwhile, Xuanhua\'s birthday was added, even though she was just born less than two months ago.

The only birthday she didn\'t need to celebrate was Tianci\'s since it had already passed.

"Do you guys think I should do a makeup birthday for Tianci? I don\'t think anyone has done it for her."

After a short consideration, both Wuli and Shuli nodded in agreement.

"Two more days until Yongyi\'s one-year-old birthday..." Leyan murmured as she began planning her own son\'s birthday.

When Xiaoyun woke up again, he could hear a ton of metal sounds coming from the kitchen.

As he looked over to the clock, it was already six o\'clock.

"What are they doing making all that noise?" Xiaoyun wondered as he slowly got up from the sofa.

As he walked inside the kitchen, both Yuqi and Nami were already back home, sitting next to Wuli and Shuli at the table.

The four of them were making some sort of dough, with batter mix next to them.

Meanwhile, Leyan and Lily were both near the countertop, heating something.

"You woke up from your nap?" Nami asked as the four of them turned towards him.

"Yeah... What are you guys making?" Xiaoyun curiously asked as he took a seat.

"Food for Yongyi\'s birthday. You don\'t know your own kid\'s birthday?" Wuli questioned, with all four of them looking a little disappointed.

"I had been busy. My bad."

Xiaoyun quickly apologized, as he only remembered Nami\'s upcoming birthday next week.

"Are you going to help, or are you just going to watch?" Yuqi asked as Xiaoyun kept staring at the dough they were making.

This time, Xiaoyun didn\'t say anything. But he quickly joined in to help them make the food.

An hour later...

As they were about to put the food they had prepared into the oven, Kate and Anna finally returned from their work.

"Ooo, it smells so good! What are you guys making?" Kate curiously asked as both of them entered the kitchen.

"Birthday cake and dessert for Yongyi," Leyan replied as the oven finished preheated.

"Ah, that makes sense... Anna, we should probably get a gift——"

"No need. You two marrying Xiaoyun earlier would be the greatest gift to them."

"Them?" Anna curiously asked as both of their faces blushed a little.

"Yeah, after Yongyi\'s birthday is Lianrong, then Qiaolan, then Nami\'s birthday."

Kate and Anna both wipe an invisible sweat off their forehead as they realize they would have needed to give four different gifts.

"You guys can just relax on the sofa. There\'s nothing much to do now. I\'ll go cook dinner now."

Leyan kicked everyone out of the kitchen, making them head back to the living room.

"There really isn\'t much entertainment to go around after the apocalypse, is there?"

Yuqi pointed out as they all sat down on the sofa, looking a little bored as they didn\'t want to watch TV again.

"How about we play cards again?" Nami suggested as she began heading towards the drawer below the TV.

With no other options, they took the offer as Nami took out a deck of cards before heading back to the kitchen to play on the table.

"What do you guys want to play?" Nami asked.

"How about just a simple twenty-one with no dealers and all cards faced down?" Xiaoyun suggested.

"Sure, let\'s just play that." Yuqi accepted.

"We should add some stake to this to make it more fun." Kate suddenly suggested as Nami began passing cards to each of them.

"We could... But there\'s no point in betting money. You have something in mind?" Wuli curiously asked as she checked her card.

"How about the winner pick someone to tell something about their past? Like if I win, I can ask Xiaoyun to tell me when he failed his math test."

"But what does the loser get punished with? There\'s no point in surrendering your hand or stand."

Shuli\'s point made Kate reconsider her suggestion, as she realized that it was a winner-takes-all.

"How about every three turns, the person with the most candy gets to pick who to say the story?"

Kate suggested as she grabbed the bag of candy lying on top of a drawer nearby.

"Sure, let\'s do that."

With each of them getting ten candy pieces, the game of modified twenty-one began as they all took a peek at their cards.

"I\'m going to say it: none of you can beat my hands. It\'s a flat-out twenty-one." Xiaoyun warned as he doubled his candy from one to two.

Both Nami and Lily surrendered, giving up their one candy as they sat out for the round.

"Sounds like a lie to me," Yuqi adds one candy as she draws a card from the deck.

Both Kate and Anna followed through with it as well, adding a candy to match but not drawing a card.

"Well, it\'s your loss."

As everyone revealed their card, all three who followed were a little surprised as Xiaoyun actually hit twenty-one.

Meanwhile, the other three were only 19, 18, and 19, which was not enough to win, as Xiaoyun took all the candy on the table.

"I told you. Do you think I\'ll actually lie over that?"

With 18 candies in hand, Xiaoyun was now in a massive lead as Nami took all the cards back and began reshuffling the deck.

"You just got lucky once. The next one, you\'re going to be the first one surrendering their hand——"

Just as Kate was about to finish her trash talk, the sound of the front door being opened could be heard.

It was Tianci who had finally returned from her work with a briefcase in her hand.

"Welcome back! Leyan is cooking right now. Do you want to play twenty-one with us?

It\'s very simple rules. It\'s almost the same as the one we played before in the past."

Xiaoyun offered as Tianci put her briefcase on top of the shoe drawer before walking to the kitchen.

"Sure."

Nami quickly drew two cards for Tianci as Kate grabbed ten candies for her to bet with.

After explaining the rule and the bet, Tianci was ready as she checked her card along with everyone else.

"Five candies."

With Yuqi upping the candy count without drawing a card, everyone seemed a little nervous after what happened earlier with Xiaoyun.

However, Xiaoyun matches the candies before drawing two cards and stopping.
